Might as well voice my own feedback here too- Account-wide tokens are a nice QoL increase. Who would've thought. I'm kinda indifferent on the Premium creds. Functionally, they're practically wrapper missions minus the bonus rewards at the end. Looking with a developer's point-of-view, I kinda get the switch. Still prefer…

What mostly stops me from using Gadgeteering is that the main powers boil down to "gun but it doesn't shoot bullets" and I'd love more variation to powers the can be used as your main attack. While we do have that variation, it's just they're more utility powers than main attacks. For example, in DCUO you have different…
-
This, so, so much. The on-turn-in cooldown timer forces you to dedicate your time explicitly to grinding the event. Gonna be busy for a day? Tough luck, you can't stock that mission for later, and now you've missed a day (or messed up your timers). Endgame stuff happening? Now you have to readjust your schedule tomorrow…
-
Why.
-
Is this just gonna go to live after today's downtime? Others have already said what my thoughts are on this, and I don't feel like just regurgitating the same points.
-
Last year's event tokens haven't been flushed yet. Does this mean NI tokens earned during this event might get flushed too?
-
Why'd you necro a post from 2013? SCR gear's the Heroic set, which is outclassed by the GCR gear now.
-
I don't hate devices at all, but I like them as something to complement or fill a gap for your build, not something that's central to a build in the way that PVDs are. I've suggested this before but... yeah. In-character-wise, the concept of PVDs can be stupid too. It's like being Human Torch, except he needs a…
-
Relevant suggestion that went unnoticed. The change sucks, but there are other ways to stack Manipulator mid-CC. Gonna have to use that free respec to pick up a root of some kind.
-
I used to run a character that only used bubbles + nanites to support, and never had issues with scoring since the change, so it does count. Only real times I couldn't score enough were either the run was too quick, or if there's another bubbler present.
-
I'm sorry, but for someone who has long-**** posts, you're posting a whole lot of nothing.
-
I like JSH's reviews because they're from a newbie's perspective, it gives the viewer an idea of what they'd experience if they're gonna pick up the game. His review made me realize just how different newbies see the early game, in contrast to those of us who just blitz through it. Also made me realize just how janky the…
-
Some of us tanks have been asking for this and what we got was endgame gear that increases threat. Which doesn't help pre-40 or when you're endgame grinding, and even then it's not even enough of a threat increase for tanks to forego threat mods. I'm still in the camp that threat mods shouldn't exist and should have been…
-
*If you can attend the Dev CCs. Not if you're from somewhere that the Dev CC happens at an impractical time.
-
Huh, cool. Guess I'm not dropping those then. Thanks.
-
I agree with most of the things, except for the ones related to getting more Gs. Players generating more Gs would just promote more inflation, and the costs of things would just adjust to match the higher incoming G production.
-
Your block is pretty much the defensive option, which is why it's quite important to get a replacer. I think I'm missing something, but what do you mean by ESP? It's optional, but I suggest getting a threat wipe of sorts. There are some fights with threat wipe mechanics, and it's also generally useful if things go…
-
2) It's the things that change your block, like Parry, Deflect, Guard, etc. Since you're planning an endgame build, you need it a whole lot more. Preferably Rank 3, but could get away with a Rank 2 depending on build. 3) Defiance is a tanking passive, not DPS - you can't even use it in DPS role. If you plan to make a…
-
So... a few things:* Are you planning to take this build to endgame content, or just for general/event stuff? * You're lacking a block replacer. Is that okay for you? * Is there a reason for picking up Defiance? * You may want to pick up a different self-res than Rebirth. Depending on circumstances, that self-DoT might…
-
Kinda different about what the OP was talking about. Off the top of my head, your Nanites not working for others could be the result of one or both of two things: the aura target limit or a broken teamup. Auras have a limited number that they can affect - 20, IIRC. If there are a lot more people than that within range, not…
-
Just gonna piggyback off of this instead of making a new topic - started having similar issues around May 10th, UTC+8: Launcher (and the login process in-game) kept failing to communicate with the servers, and SNRs during loading screens, but if I ever got into the actual game, everything runs fine (until I go through a…
-
Looks like another bad copy-paste job, like the times when the news post got the dates wrong. It's from the August 11 post from last year when they were promoting the Hybrid Shoulders and Bone Horns.
-
They already kinda do that through the reprint event at the end of each year, and most of the mission rewards have made their way into TPB.
-
Was the swarm adjusted? Because honestly, it was too much. Scratch that. Moar bugs. Definitely not because I need to farm the swarm on my alt. Aren't those from Nightmare Invasion?
-
Bug April Fools Event "Buggy" perk rewards "Colectible" title. Not sure if intended.
-
This whole issue could have been avoided if this got patched in at the usual patch day.
-
Or have it radiate small ticks of healing whenever you get hit, kinda like Ebon Void, except no damage and you don't heal yourself.
-
That's what I'm looking for, thanks. I also just noticed I pasted the wrong build, so I changed that, and changed it to use Brutality. Edit: ...and the forum ate my edited post. Why.
-
I suppose I could've worded it better, but I meant more in the line of "if I lose 5% crit rate, but gain 5% severity, is that an even trade?" or something like that.
-
JaazPls. It'd actually be Xeenth, an alternate universe Xinth who sports a 70's-style moustache. Is there some kind of math behind the crit rating<>severity values? Like how much rating a percent of severity is worth and vice versa. The main thing I'm concerned about is severity going to waste because of not critting…
-
Yeah, player-side anyway. I'd love some of those abilities the New Shadows use. That's why it's driving me insane. The game's giving me options, but they don't mix well. The reason I decided to dual-role is because in Cosmics/event OMs, there's sometimes an abundance of better tanks while I still want to play this…
-
There are situations where I'd love to have a hard taunt ability, but I doubt this will happen because we used to have one that got changed. The single-target type of Challenge used to be able to hard taunt for 4 seconds, with a 10-second shared internal cooldown and a 10-second immunity thereafter. I do think tank's…
-
Great story, not enough details. 8.8/10. That wasn't me. I don't doubt that it happened to you, but you're barking up the wrong tree. Good job. Really helps your credibility. Funny enough, I think I know who actually did that to you, and our @ names may be familiar enough to cause confusion. But I'm not 100% so I'm not…
-
I support this, and would further suggest that more powers should support emanation point customization. I have encountered something of an opposite issue - I want a power to look like a breath attack, but only has the preset palms emanation point.
-
Nope. It was before DNTP started. Now you're just making **** up. If it was true, please do say so when this was. Because the only times I could have been "rude" to you were: 1. When you were playing the victim in endgame chat shortly before you made this topic. 2. That one time recently in Ape/Dino when Suz was trying to…
-
I've been reading this thread and look, I can kinda sympathize with you. Somewhat. My builds are unoptimized because of either in-character choices or just not "feeling right." Hell, I had a hybrid AoPM build planned from way back for similar reasons as you. What's stopping me from actually, fully, sympathizing is two…
-
Happens with Form of the Swordsman too. Or at least it does on my Single Blade toon. EDIT: Actually it's less that and it looks like my toon just keeps flashing blue every four seconds that the form is active, regardless of combat or gaining stacks. Which doesn't happen before.
-
Having a 500 cap doesn't stop it from devaluing, though. It just makes that 500 worth a lot less, like that screen crop I posted.
-
It limits how much Questionite goes active into the economy. Also acts as a timegate against grinding. Unless they put in more Qnite sinks, removing the cap would just reduce the value of Qnite even more. I'd rather not have devalued Qnite flooding the market, and having this happen to CO's exchange.
-
The drops are just sequential now, but seems to reset. I noticed this when I needed to stop playing mid-quest on one of my toons, who's only missing the last two ones. When I logged back in, I needed to re-farm the rest of the other artifacts first before the two I needed had a chance to drop. It also goes back to random…
-
That advantage was the main reason I respecced my pet toon into a bubbler. Then I learned that it doesn't affect pets long after I left the Powerhouse. At least that toon's a lot more useable now than with the old gimmick I had with him.
-
What does this mean when it gets to live? I'm guessing progress towards the mission with characters who have it uncleared will reset. But will the characters who have completed it get retroactively rewarded tokens, or will it be similar with the werewolf thing where in this case only the costume would just be placed on the…
-
Wait... where did the Mods NPC go? Was about to say that Mods just got moved to an easy-to-miss NPC, but it's completely gone now.
-
Was the PTS wiped? The character I have on there got deleted and all my accountwide unlocks - like ATs, costumes and powers - are gone.
-
Yeah, I'm kinda hard to deal with in some circumstances. I'm really sorry about that. But thinking about it, I guess I can fit in MSA, thinking he's using the magic to re-assemble himself in a molecular level. Or something like that. Now, after looking at the build you've provided, I've got some more questions: - Is there…
-
Honestly, I want to have a combo as a main ability. Was actually considering Dragon's Wrath, as I love it on my current Unleashed main, with its Rush buff and burst. Sword Cyclone, on the other hand, well, I don't like spinning like a top. While MSA, even though it's pretty much the best unlock, I knowingly skipped over…
-
Why wouldn't it? You make it seem like the character would just blow up the second it steps into an alert with that kind of response. Well, the theme's supposed to be a character whose primary method of fighting's through twin swords and agility, while using something similar to blood magic to complement that and support…
-
I see. Well, the reason that I didn't take Split the Arrow was that I wanted to maximize the Preemptive Strike spec, and since I'm using Straight Shot frequently as a result, thought that buffing it through Make It Count could help. While the Metabolism advantages are there just to help with energy issues, since…
-
I've read that guide (before I started my Marksman actually), but it did not answer my questions. So from what I'm getting, the best way against single targets is Straight Shot and Snap Shots every time regardless of target HP unless I'm energy starved, and taps all the way unless, once again, energy starved. And Ranking…
