I really love the anti-challenge advantage idea! It would be an easy investment for DPS, a nice threat management tool for dual rolers to put on a power and even situationally useful for tanks.
> @flowcyto said: > .. They seem to have changed that on the PTS as well. The max bonus is capped at 25% at R1, 30% at R2, and 36% (25*1.2*1.2) at R3. Thanks for the info! I didn’t realize that aspect of it had been changed on PTS.
The crit and severity it gives scales with how low your HP is when you use it, capping at 30% crit and severity for being around 40% hp. This is a omitted from the tool tip You can see it scale up on the tooltip as you take damage.
> @kaizerin said: > This is true for Imbue on live as well, the tooltip may not be reflecting it. edit: I am being told the rank scaling it is being reflected on live.
All of the missions give us forms of magical defense gear/mods. The lemurian vendor on MI uses lemurian magic to help upgrade your gauntlets. He also speaks about Andrith the Golden. Perhaps the magic resist items are intentional to prepare is for a fight against an enemy who uses magic. ((Also it would be really neat if…
I enjoyed it, it was something new to do with okay rewards. I especially have been enjoying upgrading the gauntlet device. I hope that all of this leads to an Epic lair focused around Andrith the Golden : )
I didn’t know anything about this until i came across this thread, so thanks! This will be a fun new knick knack to grind for. I would love to see more upgradable/progressive oriented items like this they give you a reason to get out and do things!
Unfortunately there is no way to do this right now and the game doesn’t allow for addons. It would be a -major- QoL improvement for combat if it could happen though. Doing something like trying to guess how many bleeds belong to you in a stack of 22 bleeds is not ideal.
Having 2 ranked passives can make for an extremely versatile build if done correctly. It’s a lot of fun and highly useful for both endgame and pre-endgame content!
Totally agree. There are many people with many, many alts in the SG I am in and we make it a point not to send out SG mail because it becomes more of an annoyance than a benefit.

They took Eidolon of Destruction off of live to fix some issues and his open mission is the one with the perk that the costume pieces are locked behind. The costume pieces being removed from the store is likely related.
A lot of really good updates here. Thank you for adding the option to sort characters by creation date back in! My distinguished tank will have distinguishably more defense now! I hope Eido enjoys his vacation and comes back feeling refreshed.
All of this sounds nice! > @kaizerin said: > Missions > * The Battlefront: Shadowfall open mission (Eidolon) is being temporarily disabled due to an issue that recently came up. It will return at a later date. I’m aware of issues with the encounter that have been present for a long while. What were the issues that came up…
I’ve seen it used to great effect in picking up baby dino. I believe it’s a 30ft range and relatively cheap energy cost. The fact that it’s PB means it’s also useful to apply your secondary challenge on your primary target. It does have a 50% chance to miss targets beyond 15ft, so for grabbing baby just make sure to be…

I am looking over our current threat wipes and it appears most do have a utility already, they just are not very useful in most cases. Blinding Light - No extra utility Evasive Maneuvers - Reverse Lunge with adv to have 50% chance to wipe threat. Also has a self heal adv. Smoke Grenade - Perception debuff with adv to wipe…
There are threat wipes with other utilities present in the game already, or rather there are utilities with threat wipe advantages. Palliate is a very powerful heal that can double as a threat wipe.
It is definitely tailored for the trinity play style and doesn’t have much use outside of that. > @spinnytop said: > Question, what negative outcomes do you think will come from giving Threat Wipes additional utility? You could definitely add utilities that would not have negative effects, it depends on what that utility…
> spinnytop wrote: » > > I'll restate what I already said. By being more experienced you can in fact make an inexperienced tank's lack of threat less of an issue because you know how to make it less of an issue by throttling your threat This is what a threat wipe does, except it throttles it to 0 immediately and allows you…
So Lock n Load now gives you 3 stacks of furious, which if you are a munitions user you likely already have or can easily get. I don’t see a reason to take Lock n Load now, especially for munition users. Giving it an advantage that gives Lock n Load x% crit chance per stack of furious ((and removing the new instant furious…
> @nbkxs said: > I concur, but a lot of people seem to prefer the 'biological threat wipe' - death. Okay you gave me an idea..we most def need a “Play Dead” threat wipe! Complete with an animation and emote unlock. New SCR store power \p/
Reading over that I get the impression that you are saying threat wipes are generally useless, so they need additional utility to make them useful. If that is what you are saying, then why wouldn’t people just get powers that apply utility and do something more useful? My personal experience with threat wipes is that they…
For those wanting to play a mastermind type AT; the Inventor is that. It gets a group buff passive, 2 pet summon abilities allowing you to have up to 4 pets out through your powers and it also has access to the Commander spec tree to buff your pets. It is a really fun Pet summoner AT
I saw it being run about 3 times just yesterday. It’s mostly the same people running it. It is going on 3 or 4 years old now. People are probably bored with it.
> @spinnytop said: > Then there's the reality that, in regards to what's coming up, there might not really be a state of the game. Remember that live stream Kaizerin was on where every question was answered with "maybe?" or "I can't say" or "we'd like to do that but we're not sure if we ever can" when it came to asking…
I have a few issues with the CC I would like to touch on. There are quite a few so i'm going to list them out. 1. You took time to organize an event for the community. Why would you give us something to do!? 2. You gave away free stuff, and a whole lot of it! How dare you give away your stuff for free to others? 3. You…

A lot of the rest of the video game audience is currently going nuts about microtransactions, and here we are wanting more reasons to feed small payments into this game. Exactly.

You can’t clear the ghost that I’m aware of. Breaks in the groups in the team up are what causes the issue with buffs. For example if there is a ghost in group 5, when you join team up you will be in group 5. If someone with auras is in group 1, but no one is occupying groups 2-4 then people in group 5 and beyond will not…
