I doubt it. The only reason Dark Knight was so huge was because of Heath Ledger.

And he's not in Dark Knight Rises, for obvious reasons.

If you're talking about the Defense Amplifier, it does not provide taunt protection.

Yes, last I checked. Otherwise I would apply for it.

There's a UI team?

You should be able to bind keys to

powexec_serverslot 1-10

I'm not sure if it shows up in the key binding options window or not, if it does it should be like Server Tray Slot or something.

AFAIK there's no way to hide or relocate the tray when it's up, though, which is really annoying if it covers part of your UI.

Boost Range is probably the easiest to test, since endurance cost can be difficult to precisely measure (and Vigilance is notoriously flaky, CP would be better).

Unfortunately I don't have any /em blasters with Incarnate powers.

Any volunteers for SCIENCE?

Do. It is a real problem. The devs have punted and said it's a billing issue (and the billing department is shared with several other games). Either way, the yearly badges need to either be fixed or removed.

The only way something like that will get priority is through volume of support tickets from paying customers who are unhappy about it.

I'm not saying spam them, but one ticket from each customer who is paying them a monthly fee and not getting the perks they're supposed to should be plenty.

That's why they call them "issues".

I remember a bunch of people complaining on beta after the loud "trash can" sounds went in (this was after a somewhat smaller number complained that they were too quiet, I remember laughing because the devs just can't win). A while after that, another beta patch changed them yet again to a quieter set of sounds different from the originals. However, the sounds that went live were the middle set, rather than the ones that were on beta near the end of its testing.

I don't think there's any evidence to support the sound changes in I23 being a mistake.

Rad armor will be using Absorb, as well as a few other things...

Those are the re-re-revised sound effects that showed up very late in the Staff Fighting beta test. They didn't make it into the live build in time, so when Staff hit the market it was with the old sounds that nearly everyone hated.

I bet they meant for premium players wanting to buy them in the market, rather than VIPs who automatically have access.

I was all "What new forum layout...? It looks the same to me."

Here's my user stylesheet for covert browsing from work:

Besides removing the logo and background, and forcing the page width to fill the browser, it also makes images such as avatars and signatures 95% transparent. Hovering the mouse over one allows viewing of the image.

All 5 of them?

Here's what I would do:

1. Remove Ms. Liberty from Fort Trident. There's no need for her to be there, and missions often mistakenly send you to that version rather than the one in AP (though you can talk to either, but the waypoint says FT).

2. Remove Ms. Liberty from Independence Port. Add a dialog option to her in AP (similar to trainer/tailor or posi 1/posi 2 options) to launch the task force from there. Add a Longbow helicopter around the corner to take the place of the submarine door. Penelope Yin TF still launches from IP, as does Sutter, both in close proximity. No need for 3 TFs in that zone.

3. Give BAB a new Task Force or story arc to hand out. Something cool that people will want to run. Move him to a more prominent location (Peregrine perhaps? Or Brickstown).

Accuracy may "slip through the cracks" as it were, since the flag for ignoring outside buffs only applies to the effects, not to the power's base attributes like Accuracy, Range, Recharge, and Endurance Cost.

The "Ignore the attribute entirely" flag could be set for Accuracy, much as it is for Recharge, but that would prevent enhancements like Nerve from working.

I don't know, I think I'd object to her being removed from AP more than I would about any of the other changes. Such an iconic figure for new players that everyone remembers.

BAB is cool and all, but he doesn't need to be the one that everybody clusters around in Atlas.

Also on beta/test, "Sister Psyche's Comrade" got renamed to "Sister Psyche's Comrade Badge".

I'm guessing that's a typo from renaming it back, as that doesn't really make sense as a title. The Villain name for it did not change.

You should try it. My uh, educated guess, is that you'll find the task force contact has magically changed appearance and name, but you'll still be able to continue on it.

But Absorb+Defense+Resistanece >> Absorb+Defense.

1% Def = 2% Res has been glaringly wrong for years. Not least of which because all ATs have the same (effective) defense cap, but most ATs have lower resistance caps.

None taken, and that's why I said you wouldn't find official documentation of the change. What CoD shows is the same as in-game real numbers, and while I can't get into specifics, I'm reasonably confident in its accuracy. Ultimately the only way to be certain is to test it first-hand.

What I can tell you is that Panacea isn't supposed to be able to heal enemies. It must have been considered a bug, because a fix was put into place specifically to address it in I19.5 (Feb 2011). If that fix isn't working, then by all means grab a screenshot and PM it to Synapse. I'm happy to relay one if you're unable to send PMs.

Screenshots should ideally contain the combat log, in order to rule out coincidental green numbers from other sources. The message will look like:
"Your Panacea effect triggers and heals TARGET for ### points of healing."

(please don't take that as snark; if it's bugged then the above is the quickest way to see that it gets fixed)
