Most of the values are less than advertised. The 2.5% End Reduction from Support Tier 1? It's 2.43%; not much lower, but something is awfully wrong with the math.
The only numbers that seem proper is the inherent +Dam inherent for slotting Assault(unless you right-click the power icon, it says less) -

The Light of the Well noise. You know, that horrible ear-splitting tornado siren that plays whenever Tyrant uses the "air crackling" AoE patch attack?
Yeah. At 30% volume and 10% system volume that noise is STILL too loud. It causes my Klipsch headphones to sputter thanks to how loud it is.
Even better? When there's more than one of those lightning patches it gets EVEN LOUDER.
Who's idea was this? NOTHING in the game needs to be that loud. I love playing with my sound on, but I have to mute the Magisterium trial thanks to that awful siren-klaxon blast. -

Personal enjoyment of individual things, in this case a new trial in the game, is subjective. So every time you correct someone on their personal feelings about something, you just look stupid.
I hate pineapple, but thankfully people aren't falling all over themselves to correct me. That stuff is terrible.
I've run near a dozen attempt to complete it, 11 got to Tyrant, but we could not get him below 20% health at any time.
When it fails, he says his defeated dialogue and turns into the small level 50 verison of himself(despite obvious failure), and vanishes after a few seconds. We even get "Trial Complete", despite its failure. Worst, the Magisterium grants no Astrals Merits for anything we did accomplish. After a awhile, it's just a damn threshing machine--to me not fun at all.
The 'prize', Hybrid is much less useful that I thought it would be. It's not something worth the difficulty of The Magisterium. -

Fortunately, the trial is fun. The last part is a little crazy, but I like it like that.

At least it makes the slot nice and quick to unlock.

Quote:Until such time, Hybrid remains...disappointing.Originally Posted by Chad Gulzow-Man
I think they said during a Ustream back in like April that Dr. Aeon already has plans for non-trial content to unlock Hybrid, but it won't be part of Issue 23.

We already tried to explain this issue to the devs and were basically told to "POUND SAND". So we have what we have...ain't it grand?
I love pounding sand...

It's day one, and already, players are farming the Magisterium: Defeating 250 IDF, quitting the trial, and repeating, because there is no other way besides Magisterium to earn Hybrid.
We have aberrant game-play rather than a feasible means of unlocking the new slot. We need some other means. We have scads of trials that are now obsolete, because they won't grants any of the new iXP.
When will this change? -
Quote:How wonderfully condescending.Originally Posted by Snow Globe
What they did is called a retcon, and I fully approve of the way they handled this choice.
I know full well of retcons. They can add and they can take away. When a retcon removes what was, that is what they call "bad". -
Quote:I don't want my MoSTF to go away. I did his task force, not his grand-daughter's.Originally Posted by Snow Globe
Personally, I like the choice they made. I don't want to have to run the STF via flashback then run the nearly exact same TF to get the badge again.

It appears that the Incarnate Tsoo Sorcerers of Dark Astoria are not counting towards the progress of the Tracer badge(defeat 200 Tsoo Sorcerers).
(While not 100% certain, the Male Sorcerers might be counting, but not the Sorceresses) -

It will proc on you, but only with enemies in range. The best place for Numi's is in a passive (e.g. HPT, Fast Healing, Health, Physical Perfection, etc.)

Quote:Actually they do. The issue is, it would take as long as it took them to implement it as it did all primary and secondary sets (many months of work)Originally Posted by Morgan78
Now I know that the Devs don't like to work on old content and no plans of us changing the colors to power pool, ancillary, patron power pools.
They did express that they felt that Patron powers wouldn't due to the fact they come from an outside source (one I hardily disagree with). -

I hope we can have Water blast soon enough. Its like they are holding good stuff and for no good reason. Lets think the good stuff is not ready so they are releasing IOs and other stuff.

Quote:The 15th. I attempted to log in, and it would not accept my password. FIVE TIMES IN A ROW. I was locked out for a couple hours. This used to happen frequently when the forums would randomly dump you out of login.Originally Posted by Roderick
I got that one yesterday? Or the day before? when the forums were dying and not letting anyone log in. But since then, it's been fine for me.
After that, I could log in no problem. -

There's a lot of planning that goes into building a Community. It's extremely useful to be on the ground, so to speak, early to establish the tools you'll need to do your job effectively.
CM's are more than just forum jockey's these days.
As to your questions:
1. I manage the Community aspect of all Paragon Titles
2. Yes, they hired me
3. Depends, how much do you like research and documentation?

Sorry, it's only on the power you slot it into.

Quote:I run into this problem with Heightened Senses. It even shows thae leg sweep in the icon tailor's power customization.Originally Posted by Kazz
Is said toggle Heightened Senses?
If so, it uses the same "looking around" animation that is supposed to be played when you receive a Fortune. So maybe the bug is connected to that. -
