Here's the only catch:
You'll have to respec to take advantage of it on existing characters.
Characters as they exist now, will only get the Inherent Fitness powers if they do not have any of them in their build. Conversely, if you don't you get them as Inherents and never get the option to select them as pool powers.
Woot freespec in i19!

Why are we still calling them PVP IOs if you can get them from PVE?
Well since they dont DROP in PvE and they have more benefits in PvP than PvE, if you want the technical answer

while someone else spends 7 days farming pvp ios with a friend and works the market, then buys 2 glad armors uniques, slots 1 and sells the other off market for 3 bil and has 23 or 53 days to do something else.
But the thing is though, that the options are now there for people to get non purple/pvp IOs at VERY low costs [2 hero merits] for items that are selling in the [atm on live] 100 - 300 mill range.
Would i save up 30 HM for a pvp IO? No, because i'ld make the money from the above option well before i get to there and just buy it off the market. However for people who dont want to pay that kind of money [even if they have it], the option is there via HMs now whereas before they would never had gotten it

Quote:Well you could farm them yes, or you could just play them since you are technically doing different missions. Each one can be completed rather quickly or "played properly" can be great fun to level up in.Originally Posted by OPTICAL_ILLUSION
no they just have to farm in a different or different, time consuming and costly manner :P
It really is something that in the longterm is of benefit for the game.
Oh im going to remember that for a whileQuote:ask mr europe he figured it out.

kinda what i'm trying to say. there are much less lame, time consuming and more cost effective methods to obtaining these. so why such a lame system?
yeah purps and pvp ios are rare but those numbers are just way too lame.
Just like merits, its a way so a casual player has a chance to get something that they want at their own pace without having to farm as such.
Just takes a while

Or you could just use your 2 hero merits to buy a recipe thats selling for a lot of money [like a +recharge one perhaps?] and then buy your respec recipe and have change?
OR you could do that a few times have enough to buy a couple of purples buy the time it takes to get to the required amount to buy a purple/pvp IO.
OR you could just do the tips as a casual with the knowledge that you will get something that you want/need with the bonus of all that extra money you would have picked up along the way without the "random factor" put in.
Purples/PvP have to high because they are supposed to be super rare. Though respec recipes for 10 is 10x too high

Quote:This is what i dont get. From what people said, i17/i18/i19 was all supposed to be one issue? Or at least the large majority of it? Fairly ambitious considering the sheer size of them all isnt it?
Also someone else made a smarky comment about issue 19 being what didnt make it into issue 18. He devs admitted this and that they did it to ensure we got a quality release with less but better features then a lot of subpar average items. -

Naaa. Because people with those sets still tend to take Stamina. And if we don't get extra slots, they're still grabbing powers that can't be slotted up as well.
What I think we'll see is more varied builds, in that people will have that one power pool to free up to whatever they want. Getting 4 of the 5 epic choices in one build will be more possible now.
I know on my fire scrapper i will be better At the mo, power pools i have are:
Fitness - swift/health/stamina
Speed - hasten
Leaping - combat jumping/super jump
Fightning - kick/tough
Now though i'll be able to add another and thus increasing my strength, hmm possibly leadership or medicine. -

Someone told me in-game about the fitness pool becoming inherent. Does anyone know how effective stamina and health will be once this comes online? Part of me is excited about this and part of me is worried that it will screw up alot of my builds as I like slotting health with the 3 procs (miracle, numi's, and panacea).
We can only speculate at the moment. Though if it does follow the rules at the moment on live, then we'ld still be able to add slots to it so procs would still be ok.
Only thing that is worrying most people is if the base value of them is changing or not. -

If fitness is made inherent, I wonder what Khelds and Veats will do with those extra power picks and possible slots?
Does a warshade need stamina as it is?

That's exactly why the didn't do that. If they just made endurance recovery higher and/or reduced endurance costs across the board, everyone (as in the vast majority, not literally everyone) would still take Stamina anyway.
The only way to make a lot of people feel like Stamina isn't necessary is to give it to everyone or remove endurance altogether.
Replying to yours since yours is longer
Can see everyones point on it, since even i would more than likely take stamina since im just so used to taking it. The way everybody talks about 6 slotting stamina and the powers before ED, it seems i missed a totally different game [joined like 2 months after ED]
-
Wouldnt it be easier to just increase the base recovery of all characters and keep the fitness pool as it is but just as a way to take it to an even higher level so it doesnt feel so essential but more of a luxury?
-
The level 20 - 25 rogue to hero mission was . . . . . . . a really good mission lets say
Count me in on the "more tips/morality" band please

The thing you forget is that most builds that have fitness have it with spending very few slots, most of the time only 2 extra slots for stam, and maybe and extra one for health for the two +recovery procs. So even with 3 new powers, on current builds, most people don't have slots to put into the new powers.
The following powers off the top of my head you can now pick for great improvements without using any slots on them.
- Any revive power [slot in one recharge and your sorted really]
- Any defense power like superior invis [slot in an end redux or even a +rech global IO]
- Lingering radiation [again 1 recharge will be enough for most PVE]
- Any confuse power [a recharge only need? maybe acc/rech but isnt useless without any extra slots]
- Taunt [people only slot this dont they for bonuses?]
- Recall friend [range only]
- Hasten [1 recharge is enough really]
- Veng [recharge for the bad teams? ]
But i know what you mean, existing powers more than likely wont get much benefit unless people /respec their builds. I too only use one extra slot on stamina/fitness pool though so know what you mean.

Or they could finally get rid of that stupid room entirely, as well as other mission maps that serve no purpose but to annoy. Multiple-elevator tech labs come to mind. Or maybe some of the larger mission maps will be shrunk down somewhat.
And maybe they'll finally do something about the lag in Arachnos bases. Maybe? Hopefully? No, probably not. Or finally fix the holes in the smooth caves/Cimerora caves so Stormies can play too? Again probably not.
hey if they're going to fix anything first regarding maps it'll be that darn lag on the ITF mission 3! Ran one earlier and it totally spoiled the experience for me from the lag onwards

Quote:At the moment, the only ones [ignoring if you want the badge] that i find usefull are the patrol xp and the WW tp. All the others just arent worth the effort for the bonus personally.
As long as it's not more rewards that you can only earn by not playing. -

I can't make sense of this. If there's a single update affecting all mission maps, then it's hardly minor. Maybe it means there's a new tileset coming?
What in the world can this mean?
I'm very excited by the mention of 'new systems' that are going to require more Beta time. Content, powers and zones are all great, but new systems are what really keep the game fresh. So, I'm guessing that 'casual paths' means some sort of non-combat advancement or other downtime activity.
Well minor update could just mean mission spawns are being changed a bit, something which made praetoria so great was the fact we didnt have a clue where the spawns are. Yet in CoH/V we know them off by heart their exact locations

Wasnt i17 supposed to be content that was part of i18/GR? So if you people are saying i19 was supposed to be i18/GR too, then how big did you really think that issue was going to be?
