At least this time an event got more than 1 new costumes in the vendor
All the Visors are cool, but I'm not a fan with the Direction Events are going on with this year along the absent of Powerframe Revamps which are necessary for outdated/underwelming powers and mechanics
In that case I'm really looking forward for next year 👀
But wait, there it is. Just a stealth Fusion Week.
Are the Therakiel alerts/rampage still up?

I had a feeling this was the case. Happy for the info, even if I would have rather seen more work on the powersets this year. I hope we at least see some more touch-ups and little changes here and there like with frenzy, brimstone, and bad sector. Power changes go a long way for helping things feel fresh, so I think I speak for a lot of people when I say I'm looking forward to next year. ^^
PSA the Skip Alert option is on your right, next to the vending machine! PLEASE VOTE FOR SKIP! It's a Blue Arrow hologram
Don't even pick a Vehicle, just grab a flying disc on the very left broken window! The Speed Up buff makes chasing and avoiding much better
Except of Brimstone, the Lighting Rode ADV is not good puller, it has only 10 ft sphere pull, compared to all the other powers which have 20-25 ft sphere
10 ft sphere pull is worthless, may as well just tap Brimstone to apply knockdown instead of getting into the trouble to apply negative ions
I'm all in for Crossover synergies, but this is very lacklusting!
Everything else was good
Mind Break Rank 3 appears to be completely unchanged as is the charge up VFX, I wish I had time to test this.
Rank 1 and Rank 2 sound better however, but the charge up VFX is still that of an energy weapon.
(Shadow of Doubt, Mental Leech and Mental Storm sound much better than they did!)
Any chance this can be looked at again please?

Thank you for fixing the glow property on the armor plate arm accessory with metal material as well as adding cloth material!
At least there is no point Fusing Vehicle Mods anymore
Also, can we make cutscenes 'opt in' rather than 'opt out'? There's always that one person who ignores chat and doesn't click it, and they shouldn't be able to make everyone else suffer through the forever cutscene.
Vehicles in this Alert NERF YOU and will drag the fight
Just use the Flying Disc given to you (left of the balcony, the big crate) with your own powers, no matter what level you are
3/5 people picked vehicle and the alert became slower because we didn't have enough DPS beside me and the Tank
As much I love the Skip Cutscene, when is the code gonna change to Flavour Majority of votes? The location of the option is easy to be missed by people with Tunnel vision as well
4/5 positive votes and we ending up watching the whole thing because of a single person, major flaw to this new system and easy to abuse by trolls
Try 4/5 and I was the tank. We failed because i couldn't solo him in time, since that was basically what i was doing. (Might have been possible on one of my beefier dps, but not a tank). I think i need to adopt a policy of just leaving if 3+ people get into vehicles.
Whereas if no one gets in a vehicle, he generally dies before he gets back to his penthouse's building.
If you go in 2nd time too quickly, it doesn't reset?

Block timing explained
I have no idea when it broke. So maybe it's out of scope, but at least we know devs read these threads?
It's not just because it's AoE. Or at least Sonic Blaster with advantage works with Twist Fate.
