Nightmare Event

Added preview images to all the Nightmare Event costumes.
Adjusted the damage on the Nightmare Colossus's ranged attacks to be more in line with its melee attack damage.
Added a reward pack to the Nightmare Colossus open mission that can include temp potions, temp damage boosts, temp defense boosts and a chance at some extra currency.

Cosmics

Adjusted some timing issues with Qwyjibo's pbaoe attacks so he doesn't interrupt himself to attack players while using the pbaoes.
Kigatilik's hounds now have names.

Misc

The teleport related items in the ZEN store (tp to friend, tp team, tp to rencen) are now bind to account on equip. Previously these items did not bind even if you equipped them.
Fixed a bug where the Teleiosaurus Fury mod wasn't properly boosting Massacre.
Added a Reward pack search category to the auction house. This will include items like Questionite and Drifter crates. Note: Existing items in the auction house will not appear here until they are relisted.
Added the Heroic Mask costume to the Purple Voucher Series B shop in the collector store.
Fixed a bug where the Bone Spikes short costume was using the wrong texture on some of the materials.

Please stay on topic in this PTS thread. We use bug reports from this thread to decide whether a PTS build is ready to go live, and so we need to make sure we're seeing everything in it. Please do discuss the changes, but if you find yourself writing about something that isn't specific to what's on PTS, then that should probably go here: http://forum.arcgames.com/championsonline/categories/gameplay-bugs1.
Posts that do not specifically pertain to the current PTS patch will be removed.

These player & moderator maintained threads are checked weekly by the development team.

isn't the Heroic Mask a c-store item? why would that be in the collector's store, which is only for lockbox stuff?

This feature was needed but it's waaaay too late now. I regret buying Bone Spikes because I thought it was for the arms. now that's 500 Elysium coins I'll never get back.

Slowly more items will be getting images previews and all future items will have it.

Will this affect currently owned devices, or just new ones?

All. If you currently have one equipped it will not bind until you un-equip and re-equip it.

Love this change. Gives them more of a personality and makes organizing the fight easier at the same time

sterga · June 2016

You're making changes to an event that was supposed to end the day this patch will probably come out. It'd be super if in the future, you made all of these adjustments BEFORE the event goes live instead of when it's supposed to end. This happens with every single event.

The Heroic Mask is part of a pack of crap. Filthy silvers that might want it would have to buy a travel power they might already have and a bunch of consumables them might not need / want. That would basically make this flimsy mask $8 or whatever that pack costs. Adding it to the collector's shop is an improvement on ways to acquire this costume bit.

The nightmare event is going to run until June 9th.

The News says that, but in game the event still says it ends the second (on the page with the current events, if you click nightmare invasion). Some confirmation one way or the other would be nice. (Or fix the in-game display if its wrong).

Brilliant, this is a great and much needed QoL change. Thanks!

Why? This is a horrible horrible move. I don't have one character, I have about 100 at this point, I'm in multiple super groups. If you're changing the product AFTER I've bought the items then you should allow us the chance to return our teleports and get a refund. I'd rather spend that zen on something else. Costume unlocks maybe, a vehicle, something for my account. Having group teleports usable on only one character makes it useless to me as I don't use a single character enough to make the purchase justifiable.

aiqa · June 2016

"Bound to account", so you can still use them on all your characters. Sharing them with friends will not be possible anymore.

I think you misunderstood. "Bind to Acount" means that the device will be available to your account only. You won't be able to share to friends or sell them once you've equipped it though.

flowcyto · June 2016

Recently checked the bleed/poison bugs I pointed out early in the last pts patch and it seems they are all fixed now. Defile and poison refreshes are working w/ AotB now. Scent of Blood on Bite and Dragon's Bite's bleed refreshes are working for both FotS and AotB. so yay :x

Ahh! I apologize completely for my harsh words. I thought it was changing to bind to character. Binding to account is no where near as restricting. As nice as it would be to share vehicles and teleports I can understand this move.

That means it's coming back next year, though. Can I fire a Party Ball? Please? Has been Fun!

I would also like fully bug tested content and things which are as they were meant to be when they start (as opposed to when they end). But it has been a fun event, and thanks for making the fixes to improve it more for next time round.

(what is this, positivity??)

roughbearmattach · June 2016

Isn't Nightmare Invasion lasting another week?

pantagruel01 · June 2016

I can only hope that the nightmare invasion will get something additional (like a mastermind reveal), because it's not three weeks worth of interesting.

jaazaniah1 · June 2016

Maybe there will be a part 2 sometime this summer? They can't really leave it as is, without letting the heroes take the fight to the master mind behind the plot.

celizic · June 2016

Naming the dogs is nice.

The Dinosaur and Kiga are both very epic encounters that some skill and planning. I mean yes if you fumble and putz up the timing and planning you all die and wipe and horrid things happen. But you can see everything coming and deal with it as it comes.

Qwyji is epic, but imma be loud and annoying about the death puddles exceeding their visible size and always ticking at least once no matter how fast your skeedadle. Either make the puddles visually large enough to match their hitbox or size the hitbox down to match the visuals because I've been clipped by hotstuff I was clearly out of.

Also, is it still possible to force the colossus FREEM aoes to completely miss if you have agro and you're floating at shoulder height and higher? It kinda makes tanking the thing stupid easy if you can fly.

chaosdrgnz43 · June 2016

Rock crystal auras still isn't available in Golden Seraph. Maybe it will be available in phase 2?

sterga · June 2016

"The nightmare event is going to run until June 9th."

"You're making changes to an event that was supposed to end the day this patch will probably come out."

The ORIGINAL end date for this event was June 2nd. It was extended. That's why I chose those words. This is not the first event to launch with bugs and get extended. I don't think it's too much to expect content to launch on live in a much better state instead of weeks of waiting for bugs to be fixed or things that should have been included when initially launched.

kaiserin · June 2016

The date was always intended to be June 9th. The blog originally launched with the wrong date (this was addressed early on) and the ingame error will be addressed tomorrow.

This aura was Delayed because the current form was incredible ugly, floating crystals only on your back is kinda Dumb

Valerian Scarlet's boots were delayed because they weren't made Unisex yet

celizic · June 2016

I am not going to look a gift horse of being able to grind for more event swag that I kinda wanted in the mouth. Though I'll probably blow more grind-time by being distracted into cosmic hunts.

I regret nothing.

Maybe they should remake it like how the colossi have those tiny crystals suspended near their arms and chest.

I confirm! please fix fix fix ! XD
