Do it!

Retro Sci Fi is here, and costume slots are still on sale (although at 25% off instead of last week's 35% off).
The Beam Rifle power set is also on sale, how's everyone's experience with it? I may just pick it up. -
Here's mine
Click on thumbnails for full size versions.

I actually got both.
Assault for when I need my damage output to increase and melee mostly for the taunt aura. -
I'm pretty sure I can be there to help. However, if Longbow Lore are necessary, I can only bring my PB (used on MP's successful runs).
If you rather have more debuff, I can bring my Ill/Rad that has everything except Longbow (she has Warworks instead).
@Alpha XBS
Madame Distress - Ill/Rad Controller
Or
Thunder Light - PB -
Yeah!!!

I checked, Shivans grey out while in Dwarf too so I did not use Shivans nor nukes on the second run.
EDIT: 200th post! -

I am pretty sure only you, Freaky, Alpha, and I had nukes. Alpha didn't use his. And Freaky and I both used ours during the 1st raid, not the second. So I don't think we actually had any nukes used on the 2nd raid. Can anyone else confirm this?
I did not use anything during the second raid because I was in Dwarf form and my temps were grayed out.
Although... Maybe Shivans were not greyed out and I did use it for the second one. I have to check how many I have left. I know for sure the Nuke was because I was asked during the raid if I had used it and I noticed I could not. -
There's already a second set of ATOs in the works. They were placed on beta by mistake and someone posted screenshots on another thread.
Don't know when, but they are coming.
The Summer Movie Event will also have a special Damage Attuned Set that will drop as a reward, so it's not necessarily tied to archetype.
However, I don't know if this set will be able to be catalyzed or converted. -
You can't convert an ATO into anything else BUT another ATO.
At least as far as I know.

Quote:Those are the requirements for this specific run, so I'm gonna say that they are necessary.Originally Posted by Yorukira
A few question:
tier 3 or 4 CORE longbow or cimeroran lore (preference on longbow tier 4)(I don't have any of those, Do i really get get one of those?)
at least 7 ultimates(WHat are those?)
large or super reds(I'm a MM, With zero attack, DO i need to get this still?)
rebirth or ageless destiny (a few people can have barrier, but those are best)(I have barrier but i could work on ageless)
Sound that i need to farm like 40 trial more or less
* Tier 3/4 Core Longbow or Cimeroran - Definitely. They may be the key to being able to get this badge from what I have read.
* Ultimates are inspirations that grant a +1 level shift. They cost 2 Astrals in Ouroboros or about 25 million in the Auction House last time I checked.
* Large/Super Reds (supers being sold for 1 Astral in Ouroboros like Ultimates) will probably be necessary even for Masterminds as I believe you can give them to your pets. I don't play MMs, so I could be wrong here.
* If you have Barrier I would keep that. If you are going to work on something to be part of this run, I would work on the T3/4 Longbow or Cimeroran.
Of course MP has the final word. But from her post, I believe this is what she would want to be able to put up a serious attempt at getting this badge. -
Speaking of tactics... this may help.
Emphasis mine.

Hello all,
I hope you're enjoying the Magisterium! I wanted to pop in to clarify some mechanics of the final fight:
1.) Your deaths have no effect on Tyrant at all. He has no mechanics that trigger on player death
2.) There is currently a bug where only 16 players/pets will receive the level shift from destroying Light of the Well. Well be fixing this in an upcoming patch as quickly as possible I checked the fix in as soon as the issue was discovered. - Will not apply to our attempt.
3.) Tyrant does not have a self heal. He does have a self-buff power which consumes his Olympian Guards, killing them, and providing him with bonus ToHit and Smashing Damage for each guard consumed in this way. This has a visual effect which looks a bit like a heal, but is meant instead to connote Powering up off dark energy.
4.) There is no direct negative effect to Being in the hospital. I have seen several people postulate that Tyrant heals or grows in power when people are in the hospital, but the only effect hosping has on him is that youre dead and not DPSing, and therefore his regeneration is healing him better.
I hope this information helps you, and good luck in your endeavours to bring Tyrant down!

For the 6/9 Hami Raid there will be no theme. People do not seem to be dressing up in them anymore
As for the strategy, I personally liked the faster raids, but not everyone does. For those who were there... who prefers a fast raid (or 2) versus 1 traditional raid?
Bad MP, bad!Quote:Originally Posted by Madame Pistacio

I guess this way went well? Someone mentioned there were 2 raids successful, but wasn't clear to me if both used the same strat. I assume buffing took place at start of Hami mauling and not at first Mito threshold?
If so, new standard?
It worked very well...
You didn't hear it from me, but someone told me that the on the second run, this Peacebringer by the name of Thunder Light taunted Hami (points to signature)

Quote:I think that if it's new sales only (no new items), then we don't get downtime.Originally Posted by Mental_Giant
Don't we always have downtime on Tuesday when they roll out the new Market items?
Because it's pretty much changing the price, like they do with Freebie "Friday".
I could be wrong though. -
I wouldn't be surprised if there was a small patch rolled out.
The list of known issues had a couple of things that may need immediate attention.
There's also speculation of the new SSA being released today, so it could be included in that patch (if a patch is needed to add SSAs to the live servers, I'm not sure). -

WHAT. Thought it was all inherent. Dammit, stupid jerk toggles.
On top of that, there's always a minor inherent buff occurring. -
Quote:First attempt someone used a temp as soon as the fight with Tyrant started... even after being told not to use the tempsOriginally Posted by ir0x0r
How did this go? Just seeing this now.
The second attempt was unsuccessful as well. Not sure about damage/debuff issues, but the Olympian Guards were all over us. -
Agreed.
There should be a way to either customize it (only pop up when temp powers are relevant), or turn it off altogether. -

If there is a recent discussion, they want you to search so that we don't have 15 new posts about Celestial Armor being removed but instead have one thread to consolidate that information in to make it easy to find.
If there is an old discussion, things may have changed so that the old post isn't relevant and people don't miss seeing the dates on posts and think that something said applies currently. The game has enough changes that what was happening then may not be how it happens now. Reasons given during the old discussions may not apply as they do now with other changes.
If there is an old discussion about something it would be appropriate to link to it so that people can see that it's something that HAS been discussed before but that there have been enough changes to make it so that all of the things stated in the previous discussions may no longer be true but still present some of the same information that would be relevant today.
---------------
It made sense in my head when I started typing it. I think it still makes sense.

And that may not be the reason at all, that's just one reason that I can see for it.
If I'm completely wrong, I'm sure someone from the OCR team or the Dev team will correct me.
EDIT: BTW Z, now I have new numbers to remember. Thanks a lot.
That makes sense. Thank you for the replies!Quote:Originally Posted by Zwillinger
TJ put the thread necro question succinctly.
Basically, if a thread lays long dormant, there's the likelihood that the information contained therewithin is out of date. Also, if a year old conversation is worth reviving, there's usually some sort of a new development to go along with it that's worthy of a new thread for. -
Hey Zwill, I've been meaning to ask, and I guess there's no better thread than this one to do it.
May I ask why thread "necromancy" is discouraged?
Doesn't creating threads about the same topic make things more difficult to find when searching due to multiple threads about the same topic coming up in the results?
Heck, it's even on the guidelines just posted under section 5...
Quote:It's a little contradictory since players are being asked to search but then if the thread they happen to find is "old", it will be locked and they will have to go through the trouble of creating a brand new thread with the same information they just posted.Cross posting - As a courtesy to others before beginning a new thread, please look to see if an active thread on that topic has already been established using the Search feature. If so, place your comments there instead. Multiple threads on the same subject clutter up the forum needlessly and many good ideas may be lost. Use the Search link to keep discussions about one topic to one thread only.
This is in no way a complaint or aimed at causing trouble, I am just honestly curious what the specific reason for this is. All other sites/forums I have personally been a member of discouraged creating a new thread if there was one already made about the same topic, regardless of when the last post was made.
Thank you. -

Ugh. So it's still double-loading powers and filling the bar?
And they haven't given an option to disable that bar for Khelds either, have they? I use macros. Don't need the bar. If it worked properly, I'd be glad to see it for new Khelds.I could be wrong with this assumption... but, since temp bar is a new feature and has never been on the live servers, it would serve no purpose for them list the Kheld issue as fixed since it has never really been an issue on live due to the temp bar never been live before.Quote:Originally Posted by Techbot Alpha
Huh, pretty sure it worked fine last time I was on Beta...?
Which I'd be checking now, were I not in a queue. I've *never* been in a queue before
Does that make sense? I could be completely wrong, but here's hoping it's fixed and was not listed for that reason

Griefing PB?!? Griefing?!?

As per today's Ustream: No. Retro Sci-Fi will be released sometime in June other than Thursday's Issue publication. It's obviously slated for one of the Tuesday Market releases.
