Hi everyone!
I'm Errol Gregory d'Ferrer. Have you all been getting my global friend invites OK? -

Quote:A female jacket of the same genre of a male jacket can't be unique? It can't have fringe? Or an upturned collar? Or three quarter's length sleeves? Or a raglan shoulder? Or Western clavicle panels? Or have elbow or shoulder patches? Or be sueded? Or be a waistcoat? Or be a duster? Or a (less revealing) embroidered bolero?We've been trying to add unique and different costume pieces for female options for the sake of overall variety, however I understand some of the concerns being expressed here, as does the rest of the Art and Production team. Moving forward, where possible, we will be making more gender neutral/male pieces created for females so as to more accurately reflect the Communities requests. Because each costume piece has to be individually created (we can't CTRL+C, CTRL+V the pieces from male to female unfortunately ), this does mean that we will be offering less overall unique options, however we feel it's important to address this concern.
I reject this notion of 'uniqueness', especially when it's corsets over and over again. (At this point, you could have made just one generic corset and produced different overlays for it.) Here's a vision of 'uniqueness': A fully covered gunslinger female, while the male model gets a bare chest with bandoleers. That would satisfy your vision of uniqueness, no? Probably not. And we all know why.
I also reject this false dilemma of either exactly the same or extreme gender differentiation.
I hope the art team finds the middle way.

I don't see it on Live or Beta. I even ran Ashley's arc and it didn't show. I even check a demoedit of the area and nothing is there.
TheDeepBlue is probably correct... it's a developer's placement marker accidentally made visible through some glitch. -
I'm not buying the Gunslinger and Prostitute Pack.
To Second Measure and Brian Clayton: Your art department is out of control.
- They don't check in with the patch note process (e.g., beneficial changes to the character creator never got advertised in the patch notes nor advertised as an Issue feature... so, Marketing should be pretty ticked off about that).
- When they interact with the players on the boards, they simply defend the way things are instead of bringing that feedback to the whole team. Complaints of sexism ain't new here. If anyone at Paragon Studios is surprised at this reaction, then there are some serious gaps with your player-communications. And there is just as much anger over the pre-tinting issue as with the sexism issue.
- Jay approaches costuming like a frat boy ("Bunny tails ain't for guys!"). David still thinks he's drawing for 14 year old boys and not for a more diverse audience. Don't know why the women on the art team aren't championing a change the sexism being denounced here. And Positron, who used to have a say over the art department, is still harping on female henches as harems, despite the fact that we already have female 'pets' (Fortunatas, Seers, and the harloty harlequins) and YOU GAVE US A PROSTITUTE COSTUME FOR PLAYERS.
Not happy with this. I hope everyone boycotts this set until there's a real female gunslinger costume added to it. -
Crazy is thinking the next issue will take 5 months.

The bus for an IncTrial ( ) leaves RWZ1 in Virtue every 5 minutes. It's rarely advertised in globals anymore since everyone goes to RWZ1 and hooks up there in /broadcast.

Why is Kinetic Combat so sought after? -

I've got.. that noobish feeling, oh that noobish feeling.... -
A level 50+5 IO is not only not a level 55 IO, it has the functional enhancement of a level 77 IO!

Quote:Precise Dual InspirationHey all, before this sale runs out, I've gotta ask what's probably dumb question.
On the Paragon Market, there is a Precise Dual Inspiration (Large) x5, which is described as: "x5 - Large (+Acc/+Dam) Dual Inspiration.
Then there's also a Precise Imbuement Team Dual Insp (Large) x5, which is described as: "x5 - Large (+Acc/+Dam) Team Dual Inspiration.
My question is, do both of these inspirations convey the same individual bonus? If so, is there any reason to get the single-target inspiration versus the team one? I mean, if they have the same bonuses, the team one would be just as effective as the single-target one, right? Thus making it kind of pointless to get the single-target one, if the team one has the advantage of affecting everyone around you if you happen to be on a team?
- +28.12% To Hit
- +37.5% Damage
- +50% Perception
Precise Imbuement Team Dual Insp
- +14.06% To Hit
- +24.75% Damage
- +33% Perception to Team
See: CoD, which reminds me... I know you've been busy, but could you answer this... it's what makes answering your questions possible! -
Quote:Yes, they keep the set bonuses down to 22, but the value of the Enhancements gets scaled from 40 to 22 just as if they were level 40s.What I mean is that if someone could slot say a set of Decimation SBEs (which I don't think exist, I'm just using it as an example), they could get the full enhancement value out of the set at 40, but keep the set bonuses down to 22.
At level 40 they are functionally equivalent to a regular set at 40. The advantage they have is keeping the bonuses down to 22 while exemplaring.
But you can use your second build to create a toon that specializes in exemplaring to 22 which would be more powerful than the build with the SBEs because you can build to compensate for the exemplar scaling better.
Quote:I'm asking because I had a hard enough time finding information on Attuned IOs and usually when something like this comes out, it's called to my attention by our very vocal community. -

Does this mean that Venture is really Megabyte?

Quote:To clarify, you get the advantage of the top level of the range of the Attuned Set scaled by the exemplar scale down to your exemplared level. Which isn't that great a deal in many cases than if you slotted a low-level version of the set.But if you exemplar down to the low end, you'll still have the bonuses. Your Kinetic Combats will still provide you with those big bonuses to your Defense rating if you're doing the Synapse Task Force, for instance.
The advantage is when you go back to your unexemplared level, the Attuned enhancement values will bounce back up with you, which is something that slotting low level sets won't do.
However, a second build built exclusively for low level exemplaring will still out-perform a build with Attuned sets.
