    Can you look at Despair Incarnate's AI while you're there? A couple of the recent runs I've done of Aftershock, he (it?) for whatever reason wasn't attacking for half or more of the fight. He'd agro, and stare at you, and the portal would spawn imps as usual, but the Despair Incarnate wouldn't actually do anything.

    That happened to me recently, as well.

    I was wondering if there is a way to preview items that will get added to the c-store like costume pieces, sidekicks and transform devices, or travel powers before their official release ?

    Edit : Let's not forget the hideouts. It might be just me, or just the PTS, but it seems that the stuff that goes under the stairs in the basement was swapped. The "mom's basement" gave the tech tube, the 'tech basement" gave weapon crates and the "vigilante basement" was a plain wall.

    I can confirm this bug still exists.

    And wolf and bear heads don't seem to work with Bubble Helms for some reason.

    Also, wolf and bear heads need to work with the DJ Madbot Headphones.

    Nanobot Swarm is giving a diminished return on Cooldown mitigation for characters with High Intelligence stat. The higher your INT the less reduction the power gives you. This defeats the powers sole purpose, especially for persons who take intelligence BECAUSE they want cooldown reduction.

    Ame commented on that one recently.

    Confuses (Mind Lock and Urthora's Charm) fail to confuse enemy for full duration, making ranking up the power useless. Also "Confuse Resistence" has the same icon as "Hold Resistence" making it impossible to see who is succeptable to what power. At times when using a confuse on a target with confuse resistence they still become confused. Also Confuses don't stack nor refresh the effect when confusing an already confused target. (Assuming a stack of confuse would also lessen their damage capabilities.)

    Also Confuse does NOTHING in PvP nor against Supervillan class enemies. I have tested numbers and do not notice a difference in enemy damage output. Since they are not able to stack it's much harder to see the actual benefit.


    Please impliment at LEAST an aggro wipe with confuse at higher ranks. (Rank 3)

    It seems as developers you should choose between "confuse breaks on damage and works on Players" OR "Confuse does not break on damage and has seperate affect on players". Having it break on damage (no matter the rank) and also unusable in Boss/Player fights is excessively neutered.

    The icon is very neccesary. And there is no real reason I can't see why a 2nd confuse would not only 1) not stack but also 2) not refresh the effect.
