    Why is the requirement for the Target Locked auro so freakin' high? Like seriously. 5,000 times? I did the math and if someone where to spam the power non-stop, not getting up to go do something or going to the bathroom or sleeping...It would take THREE days. That's ridiculous.

    There's more than one overlay aura? And, yeah, 5k uses for a cosmetic thing is BS. No, it does not compare to the 5k kill perks because there is zero cooldown on killing mobs and you can take out several at once.​​

    New Futuristic Costume Pieces

    Honestly, with this update, it seems the strong point has really been helmets!!

    Futuristic Costume Pieces CLICK ME

    Note - Metal Material & Detail were used to model both the shoulders and helmet initially.

    Note #2 - Stars, Wispy, Shadow Shield & Quicksilver all MOVE AROUND when applied :grin:

    Bugs:

    - Shadow Shield Material has its colors wrong in the tailor. Selecting colors does not align with the shown choice. Above link shows me selecting "blue" and the shadow shield accent being closer to pink or red. I would have gotten more info but I was kicked off the server!

    Emotes

    Call for Help - This emote is HILARIOUS and I love it. Please give it me. (Seriously though, I do love it, I hope the drop rate from boxes is generous!!)

    Anxious - This has been an emote which I've wanted for a while, but had no idea what it'd be called. I'm not sure "Anxious" is totally hitting the nail on the head although it fits, I'd say more like..."On edge" or something. Either way, I love it and I want it.

    Great job with the emotes!!! :+1:

    @theultimax

    Just play the game, you'll get it, eventually.

    @theravenforce

    Oh look another Helmet that's unfriendly to bestial heads.
    Want to get to know me a bit better, Click me and take a read of My Dragon Profile Page, it's a bit dated but still relevant.

    I take this quote from a review that I agree with.

    "customisation is so linear; everyone is after the optimal dps:survivability ratio with 0 reliance on other players = autonomous gameplay... Players don't need each other anymore... which in my opinion is a bad thing."

    Hmm, the helmet looks really interesting, I really like the idea of multiply-material on a single costume piece

    what is wrong with those massives shoulderpads :neutral:

    Propably it was made that way so they can force you do endgame with only 1 character,
    Well Rock me Amadeus, if only this device was available when they revamped cosmics, my PA DPS main would have gotten the perk by now, but right now Im so burned out I cannot farm nonstop anymore

    and I agree, the requirement is inhuman consider the Device droprate is rare

    I went on vacation for 3 days and Ego Surge finally gets nerfed fixed. Well....now I don't have any excuse to not use Aggressor. I also think most top end Con-using DPS builds will lean over to Imbue now. ¯\_( •ω• )_/¯

    Or maybe remove Con as their SS and changed their build completely.
