Chad Gulzow-Man

Not until Issue 24.

So yeah, critters can now taunt players. It can get pretty hectic in large battles... I was doing one of the Night Ward arcs and facing off against a large group of Black Knights, and I was having to shift my target after virtually every attack because they kept taunting me from one target to the next.


The number you're seeing should be the number of stacks each power has been applied to you. (Given the large number, it's probably the result of an enemy aura.)

EDIT: Ah, yes, what DarkGob said. It's been a while since I fought any Ghouls, I forgot the Painted Ones could do that.

Nothing says you have to do them back to back, y'know.

But yeah, having the only option of unlocking a new reward to be running one piece of content 5 times is annoying.

For those of you who don't know who I am... I AM RAMMSTEIN!

Such a great album...

Thought you'd enjoy that analogy.

I guess that makes sense... it's not that Tyrant's regen rate is getting buffed, it's that we're doing less damage and our debuffs are less effective due to lack of shifts.

If that's the case, then I think the player buff for taking out the lights should last a bit longer (or debuff for leaving them up should be shorter). Something like... you lose one of the 6 bonus level shifts for every two seconds the lights are up, then gain them back each time a light is taken down. That way, instead of a sudden plummet of 6 level shifts, you have a few seconds to prevent their loss.

(And it should go without saying that they need to fix the bug that limits the shifts each light gives to less than the size of a full league.)

Miracles, dawg. I think it uses magnets.

No sweat dude. If I couldn't handle a little snark, I wouldn't be replying to GG's posts.

That's a little different bit of a different situation... (and probably a better reason to ragequit, to be honest.)

It's like if they decided to create new enhancements that were only available to Heroes, but didn't give anything to Villains in return, with a perpetuated argument that "Heroes should get more enhancement options than Villains because Heroes typically use more varied enhancements."

Oh, how silly of me. That just makes everything all better, doesn't it?

When you decide to upgrade to VIP again, I recommend you start with the free month included in the Going Rogue Complete Collection. It includes side switching (Tip and Alignment missions and merits), Praetorian level 1-20 content, a lot of costume options and emotes, and of course the Dual Pistols, Kinetic Melee, Electric Control and Demon Summoning power sets.

It's also available for the cheap on Amazon.com.

There are reasons to do content other than just to upgrade your powers, you know... Earning badges, completing a story, or even just a sense of accomplishment.

Okay, fair point. There's definitely a difference between "intent" and "correctness."

The Lights of the Well are a little TOO unforgiving. In every run I've done, we've had them all down within 10 seconds of spawning, but that 10 seconds is enough to get Tyrant from around 20% health all the way back up to 40%. (I've been putting a nav marker on the light and jumping back to its position when the counter shows 3 seconds, so at least one is being taken out just as soon as the Quills power activates.)

I've also noticed that his lightning attacks continue to do damage for a second or two after the visual effects dissipate. And when he's surrounded by lightning, all I can do is fire off Energy Torrent every 8 seconds, with the occasional blast of my Judgement power whenever that manages to recharge.


My two cents on how to improve this encounter:
1) Make the Quills temp power animate faster.
2) Give about 5 seconds between when the Lights of the Well spawn and when they actually buff Tyrant --OR-- let us stop them from spawning altogether by allowing us attack their spawn points a couple seconds prior.
3) Do something about the Lightning. Either make it so the beams can't overlap (any time I've died to them, it's been because I've gotten hit with 3 or more at once), add an additional 15 seconds to the power's recharge, lower the damage, or lower the total number he can fire at once. Or some combination thereof.

(I think that if my first and second point are taken care of, though, then the third will be less of an issue.)

Funny, I was just thinking "this fight is like Reichsman + Battle Maiden."



I actually like fighting the latter, but putting the two together makes for an incredibly unpleasant playing experience. (Especially since every league I've been on has failed once we get Tyrant to the 40% mark.)

This is GG you're talking about. That's a stretch that even [famous Marvel or DC "rubber man" superhero] couldn't make.

Pretty sure this is your issue. You need to update your video driver.

Here's a link to the newest driver. I don't have an NVIDIA card, so I'm not sure if it's the best one to use currently, but it'll be better than what you're using now. http://www.geforce.com/drivers/results/44962

You're right. Except make that ALL BOYS, and "it" refers to the Princess Hat, the bonus face and the crowns in the Imperial Dynasty pack, the entirety of the Carnival of Light pack... I can go on.
