[VIDEO] The Wizards of STO Present: Infected Space Advanced - [2:06]

ezriryanezriryan Member Posts: 150 Arc User
Good evening Captains,

DPS 50k and DPS-Prime presenting some spells being cast upon Infected Space Advanced:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UeRuHD9bXlA

To give some insight into the DPS perspective of things the sorcery commences for 2 minutes and 6 seconds until the Advanced Package is being relinquished. Beware, it may exceed speedlimits and be around 17 times faster than you'd expect.

best regards
RyanSTO

    The Scimitar is too good to be true. It's 17x faster than anywhere else in the game.

    Very impressive indeed, thanks for sharing. Was wondering which combat log parser u r using, i'm currently using CombatLogReader. Reason i was asking is the little window in the left hand corner showing dmg/dps. Unless there is something in the setup of the one i'm using that i am missing that would do that. Thanks in advance if you could let me know about this.

    Use the "Mini" button from the Combatlog reader (bottom left corner). Then resize and hide frame.

    It's true. I'm somewhat surprised they didn't just give the scimitar a commander intel station while they were at it.

    Where are the acetons? Don't tell me you forgot the acetons?

    Pity...you would have been 20x faster using them!

    Putting out this kinda DPS, where is the elite runs? ISE?

    Kinda figured thats what Elite was for the best of the best.

    haven't tried Elite, but surely you guys can.

    See Devs? No matter how hard you try, the DPS people will beat you.

    Meanwhile you wreck the game for the common player.

    Stop trying to pwn the DPS people with high HP NPCs, cause I guarantee they will win every time.

    That is all.

    Really?
    Devs can easy cap dps... diminishing returns on weapons, tac consols and crth\crtd. So 10-12k dps will be maximum (at all elite 14 gear)
    And they should really do this, to balance players. (3-4k average player and 10-12k top dps'er)

    except now your average player will drop from 3k to less than 1k.

    Or they could try to balance the game. It may never be perfect but they could at least TRY.

    Its not so hard to make "diminishing returns" only for 3k+++ dps. Adding more HP to NPC will not work until DEVs balance dps, so they should seriously look at this problem.

    Diminishing returns helps but they also need to look at captian powers. APA is stupid OP compared to anything sci or eng have. I understand the need for tacs to have top dps, but they are just too far ahead in a game without roles.

    Guys you do realise that capping DPS is just a stop gap again, the NPC's as well as multiple other elements need a fix before capping DPS. Hull Sponges don't make any difference to the DPS crew with Mk14 UR or higher.

    The problem isn't the DPS crew it's the fact the Dev team can't seem to comprehend that the players know the game better than they do. Hence the arrogant overreaction to the people actually congregating and having fun despite a bug in the lvls of the enemies being present.

    Something that the apologists seem to forget is that the majority were actually enjoying the teaming up to work together. Something that literally died a death with the lockdown and rollback.

    They should , but they won't .
    How can they sell the next uber-stats console on the Lobi store or Lockbox ship if they cap / chain themselves .
    Their halfassed solution to what they can't do was to make the content harder to play in DR .
    We all know how well that worked out.

    Back when they were selling sub's and ship skins /layouts , this was possible .
    Now they are selling powers, and you can't make those relevant or attractive if you chain yourself to such outdated notions as fairness and equality .

    ... oh , and trolling the Devs with these vids won't get you that "special relationship" you seek with the Devs , but they do end up portraying you as the 14 y/old min-maxers that Geko sneered at . Congrats for hitting a new low ... by entering a realm where the stupid calls you stupid ...

    Given how poorly the devs have managed this game being sneered at by them is a compliment.

    Congratulations on that one! Looks like fun & thx for sharing as well as your builds in thread . :)

    Did it feel like a challenge for you guys at all?

    If not it would be fun to see that whatever cryptic hoped to achieve with revamp of the borg stf they have failed on basically all fronts.

    Apparently it was not enough ... , as this troll vid is just a spit in the face of the Devs tempting them to do some more "adjustments' of the wrong kind .

    Or ... there might be some bizarre reverse psychology at work here by the DPS Queen-Wizard-Legends , tempting the weak willed to join their numbers parade . :cool:

    There is a lot of sneering going on lately (guilty of it myself) , but many of us have different perspectives to our dislikes .

    I sneer at them because I see them cater / fix everything with DPS .

    The DPS crowd sneer because by their take , the Devs bongeled even that "fix" .

    ^^^ Two very different perspectives .

    I can only guess that the Devs had hoped to sell the playerbase many shines down the road that would have powers that equalize the HP gap that they created .

    Problem is , "down the road" seems to be not good enough for the non-DPS crowd , and irrelevant to the DPS crowd , as they are already above the average player in terms of DPS by at least one magnitude .
