Quote:Presuming you're Level 50, then the Attuned IO is, in effect Level 50.Originally Posted by Ultimus
So here's my question, when I exemplar with a store bought IO, does the IO act as a level 25 IO, a level 25 IO with penalties, or a level 50 IO with penalties?
If you exemplar to Level 25, then it will be just like a Level 50 IO with the exemplar scaling applied to it for Level 25.
There's a few tenths of a percentage points unaccounted for when testing this... but it's close enough.
Until the Character Copy Tool is working again, more rigorous testing is difficult to do. -

Yes, but only down to the level they would normally be available. For example, if you have an enhancement that is normally 25-50, it will scale down to 22. Below that, you lose any set bonuses. Now SINCE it is scaled down to 22, and not 25, you actually keep those set bonuses until 19 (when you would be able to slot a 22). Once you go down to level 18, it scales down to 21, and the set bonuses go away.
It is because the fact that they can actually down 3 levels lower than the "normal" set IOs that some people have...shall we say..."serious issues" with the store bought IOs.
Quote:Originally Posted by Chad Gulzow-Man
The IOs you purchase in the market will always be the level of the character that's using them, as long as it's within the level range that that IO works for--you can slot a 20-40 IO any time after 20, but it will NOT go below 20 or above 40 for its enhancement value. If you are currently level 40, but then exemp down to 30, the store-bought IO should enhance as a level 30 IO.
That's not how they work (though, it's easy to think that's how they should work).
Attuned IOs, for the sake of their Enhanced Aspects always behave as your *natural level* or their max range, whichever is less. When you Exemplar, you apply Exemplar Scaling to their current level... the Attuned IOs do not go back down in level to match your exemplared level.
For Set Bonuses, they cut out when you go more than 3 levels lower than their minimum. *Not* 3 levels lower than when you can first slot them.

Quote:When there was the last round of proliferation, the Doms were left out and told they were getting something special.Originally Posted by Airhammer
Im sorry is there a second set im not aware of that has been announced ??
And the devs themselves said they have something SPECIAL planned for Dominators coming up but havent said what that something SPECIAL is yet...
For me Special doesnt imply getting something that everyone else has.. For me it implys something unigue and or different... maybe thats just me...
Players heard: "Brand new powerset."
Devs meant: "Brand new powerset."
See the difference? No? Let me explain...
When the Devs can't do a straight proliferation, but have to change animations and powers and alter other powersets to accommodate a 'proliferated' set, well, that's as much work as creating a brand new powerset around a brand new theme (e.g., Poodle Control). For them, if it's as much work as a brand new powerset, then it's a brand new powerset, and thus, 'special.' Dark Control has new animations, new power effects, and forced a rework of Dark Miasma for Controllers. That's not a straight proliferation in their eyes. That's work.
It's not 'Poodle Control' special like players imagined. Thus, the difference in perception. -

So the ninja run is 500 points and the Martial Arts Super Booster including ninja run is 400 points. Is the price point for the latter permanent or is it just for Black Friday?

Quote:Actually, the better question is why keep Blackhole around as a power when they keep exempting critters from being affected by it because of nerfherding cries that it will be used to grief other players (as if every other power can't be used to grief one's teammates).Originally Posted by Void_Huntress
... I do agree that blackhole's persistence as a power is kind of baffling, though.
Synapse, is there any chance you can tell us what you think Blackhole's actual PURPOSE is, as a power? Because to date, all of the purported purposes it has have been demonstrated to be not met by the power.
Just remove intangibility powers completely from the game whether used by players or critters.
Or... make it work. -
Quote:They can make it short since there is most definitely code in place to prevent pet stacking. There are very few pets powers left that can stack with themselves nowadays. The only ones I can think of offhand is Snow Beast, Necro's Ghost, and Thug's Gang War (by way of Burnout).Originally Posted by Energizing_Ion
They can die so there's no need to make it a really long rchg power like Phantom Army but don't want it too short to have multiples out.

Quote:True, but leading with FS takes all but the bosses out of the fight as they tremble giving you a free shot to stack another layer of -ToHit with some other AoE debuff.Originally Posted by DreadShinobi
We don't have any numbers yet. Fearsome Stare for corrs (same buff mods as trollers) is -15% tohit base. Buff mods for doms is lower. That and this Fearsome stare will be in a control set not a debuff set, it is unlikely that the -tohit will be as powerful in dark control as it is in Dark Miasma

Quote:Could you please give us the list of names of the Assault powers now? It will help to complete my incantations.Originally Posted by Synapse
Dark Assault
This power is a mix of Dark Melee and Dark Blast. You've got a fun mix of powers in there. I think Dominators will enjoy the set. It offers a nice mix of damage, control and survivability. It also features a new power called Gather Shadows. This is effectively a combo of Build Up and Power Boost. You lose your +to hit and have reduced effectiveness of the +damage and +effects, but you get both. It's a trade-off to be sure. I look forward to player feedback on this.
I mean my spreadsheet. -
At least the 'zeus' helmet has a backing and doesn't look like it's been hot-glued to the cheeks.
And please, don't pre-tint them. If I want them to be black black or white white or neon blue, let me do so. I don't want five indistinguishable shades of silver. -

Quote:Yes, use the /ignoreasspammer function (or just right click them or their name in chat and chose that option). If enough players do that, they get auto-squelched as well as investigated. Make sure you instruct other members of the /help channel how to do that, too.Originally Posted by afocks
Time and time again I tell people to report them via support - ignoring as spammer will take days to resolve the problem.
Menu - R - copy and paste spam - mark as RMT'er. I guarantee that within 10 minutes that spammer will fade into the ether right before your eyes.
Anyone who complains about them and does not do this has no cause for complaint. -

Yeah, about that. You should probably stop shopping at Walmart. Most of their goods are from countries with major problems of child labor and sweatshops.

HA! This topic is surreal.
RMT hater- "RMT steal your moniez and **** your dog!"
RMT user- "well hey guys I actually used it and nothing bad happened to me"
RMT hater- "OMG you fund terrorism!"
Particulary tasty to me is this particular RMT user claiming to be a member of the US (I assume) military. What with TonyV, ClawsandEffect and others using propaganda, misinformation and scare tactics on par with what started a certain war recently...
Just gross. -
Maybe a transport point to the far side of IP, just like Nerva got one.

I was recently on a all-Defender PuG ITF. We steamrolled it faster than most groups can do the speed version.

I used to use FfvB for its super-ignore function. For those unaware, FfvB let you not only ignore users, but also remove all reference to them, including any "ignored post" notification and any quotes of that person. It was an amazing addon! Sadly, FfvB no longer works with Firefox past 3.6, and the developer has chosen to no longer update the addon. Has anyone found a Firefox addon that performs the same function? I wish I could use FF 3.6 still, but it is not to be.
Fortunately, there's a way to continue to use FF3, name, the portable version.
For those that don't know: a 'portable' version of a program doesn't mess with a computer's registry files... everything that's needed is kept in its own directories. Thus, you can install it on a thumbnail drive, e.g., and use it wherever you go and it will have all your settings kept right there on the thumbnail drive.
So, what I did was to install a portable version of FF3 on my computer and use that for browsing the forums so that FFvB would continue to work. It doesn't interfere with the main FF installation that I keep updated for the latest and greatest websites.
You can't run both at the same time, but you can indeed run them individually without either interfering with the other. -
Beta Patch Notes says this is fixed on Beta, so, the fix should be coming to Live, soon.

1. Maintenance is trivial.
2. Hazard zones are not linked up to the transportation hub. On speed Manticores, e.g., it's great to use the Base Transporter to leave an instance and hop to Crey's for the street sweep (can't use Mission TP for that).
3. Storage of Rare IOs and salvage.
4. Run the Cathedral of Pain trial.
5. You don't get logged out AFKing in a base.
6. Another way to use the Flashback Crystal. -
I have three Enhancement tables in my personal base. One holds HOs and Purples. One holds Special Global and Proc IOs. One holds Rare 50s that I'm likely to use (e.g., Thunderstrike). Each has about 60-70 IOs in it. And that's just my Hero Base.
So... hoarding is alive and well.
