I don't care for that mission for a number of reasons:
1.) It's soooo long. Apparently you have to go up to the mansion to spawn the ambushes because if you fight the mobs where they spawn they don't spawn....
I was solo'ing and people were waiting for me to finish the mission so I could join them for a Penny Yin TF. So I finished off one ambush group and was standing at the ambush spawn point for a good 5 minutes waiting....waiting...and then as soon as I flew towards the mansion and got half-way there, "AMBUSH!" geez...about time you guys...
2.) Animus Arcana (sp?) is a tough group at that level. I was in a full team (or a team of 7) and when we got to the "escort Clarity" part of it we all died at one time or another. Possible team leader had diff. up too much but, never had an issue getting to that mission so...
3.) The 4 (5?) Elite Bosses. Okay I can understand having the EBs be tough and all that but...an auto-hit PBAoE power (that does 50% HP damage if you stay in the 'burn' patch?) that ALL EBs get? Really?
Yes you can move away but it makes it harder on melee toons...especially when there are 4 or so 'burn' patches...
4.) The AI NPC help is pathetic. In this mission along with other missions in NW where there is help from AI NPCs....they are just sooo stupid it seems.
As to the suggestion; I wouldn't sign it but possibly just tone that particular mission down a bit. -

How can you be certain?

seems like an expanded use/refinement of doppleganger tech.
That or Paragon's really investing in those statues so they can even have the powers of the hero they mimic.
Maybe it is some sort of statue phasing tech (where I would see my main toon as a statue but my teammate would see himself up there)
Edit:
Either that or we have a new powersets...Growth!

Have fun in Freedom! We'll miss you

Hello and welcome back.
I lead/run the Magisterium iTrials on Monday night. The Mag. itrial is the newest trial and requires you to have the Destiny and Lore slots unlocked (but not slotted).
For badge runs in the Mag. itrial I require +2s and/or +3s (+3s if going for RHW badge which is defeating Tyrant without using the temps that you get during the itrial to sever the connections to the well).
Other than that, you may need to do the Dilemma Diabolique iTrial...it's "easy" as long as all are +3 (a good portion +3 or +2 at least). -
Mako is biting in to my Magi. iTrials that I run on Mon. nights!
That's okay, we can take a break for a week
-
Just as a reminder for those that weren't there last week.
We'll be doing a RHW run every Mon. night (as long as I'm running them that is) the first try/attempt.
So at 8pm EDT I'll be inviting for the RHW badge. Please be patient with me because I will only be inviting +3s and need people to bring at least 3 Ultimate inspirations....I can give some to some people but in general if you can bring them yourself that'd be great!
Also we need "less melee" and more ranged damage (blasters and corrs) for the badge to have a better chance at being successful. If you can't get your badger toon on (if it's a tanker/etc) then, again, try for next week.
Trying to be fair to those that are actively seeking the badge and those that just want to unlock Hybrid. -
Interesting indeed!
The clock reads, as best I can tell, 3:30 (if you're looking at it right-side up) or 9 if you look at it the way it is in the pic.
So that means i24 hits beta on the 9th of this month and hits live 3.5 weeks after that!
>_> -
Welcome to the game (and forums)!

As an aside, I wonder just how many people are going to take the "Fix Everything" meme too far and be really disappointed when I24 does not, in fact, fix everything.
I mean REALLY upset....you know...like just short of ragequit upset!
At least 2 more mad faces...whatcha' think?

Hooray for new Doctor Who!

Awww...and I thought this was a link for the i24 Overview
SUCH A TEASE!

Again, it's not even in beta yet so numbers may change but I'd agree with you to an extent.
It feels like the t9 melee armor powers, "you're uber for 2-5 minutes!...and then you lose 90% HP and 100% end. and it recharges every 5-7 minutes."
Uh...yeah...*skip*...
*shrugs*
I might pick it up if it recharged every 90s or so...maybe.
Kind of goes back to other topics about having powers that are "so good" but you don't want to use them until "that one situation" comes up...but then that "one situation" doesn't come up that often so...is it worth it to keep that power pick?
EM Pulse is a great power. Do I use it every time it's up? Absolutely not! Am I glad to have it when I DO use it? Yes!
I can see the devs not wanting to give Blasters +12 or what have you mez protection after using Inner Will cause then you'd have "tank mages" since some do have softcap'd Defenses...but having some mez protection would be nice. -
Quote:Originally Posted by Another_Fan
What is the duration of the protection ? At 480 I still could see it being a game changer. I would have no trouble bringing that down to once every 120 seconds while still having significant positional and typed defense on a blaster. At 600 it is probably a skip.
...
From what I got from the video; it is an insta-breakfree and NO protection from mez afterwards...just mez resistance (which we all know is almost worthless).
So if you get hit with a hold, use Inner Will and get hit with a sleep or hold again, you're still mez'd. -

If the cycle time of Inner Will is as you say, I'm not even sure I'll take the power. Style considerations aside, Burst of Speed is the major selling point here, IMO.
I would agree. I think I'll make a */MC Blaster just because of Burst of Speed.
If Inner Will stays at the recharge time it is now (480, 600? seconds) I might not take it.
I don't see the point in breaking 1 mez (yes and getting +special but that's not huge to me) every 5 or so minutes. Carry a BF and have a longer lasting mez protection! ta-da!
*shrugs*
We'll see

Hmmm....if it's anything like X-Men: FC I'll enjoy it

Quote:Rats I was wondering if Burst of Speed may lead to some sort of Nightcrawler "teleport in and attack and then teleport out" type of power but after reading that...maybe not :| hehOriginally Posted by Arbiter Hawk
That's what I originally wanted Vorpal Judgement to be - teleporting you four or five times and doing a PBAoE on each hop. Unfortunately that's impossible, but it was a fun idea, and I think Tunnel Rat and Honey Badger sold it really well through VFX.
Quote:I really love Dimension Shift, as unpopular of a stance as that may be. It's one of the craziest, most powerful powers in the game, but only for the kind of player who really gets their enjoyment out of subtle finesse, rather than through big numbers or straightforward victories.
Oh I know...I'll be here asking for it to be changed all the time too
I like cool/unique powers (and power sets) but I have a very hard time finding a good use for DS (in the 50+/incarnate trial game).

The best use of Dimension Shift I've ever seen was to avoid the Obliteration Beam in Keyes-- at the last second a Grav 'Troller dropped it on the people who weren't moving and it completely deflected the beam's attack/hold.
I like it! However, it kind of brings me back to, "okay if you want us to use it like that..." "why can't the recharge time be like 10-20 seconds (after you un-toggle DS)?"
I know you can also use DS to "tank" Lord Recluse (ie. keep him occupied) in the STF but again, unless you have 3-4 Grav. Controllers then you can't keep LR in DS forever.
I can use DS like what you mentioned (for the Keyes' iTrial; protect people in the green targeting circle) but again, the oblit. beam happens every 20 seconds (?) so I can only do use it like that once every 3 Oblits. (roughly).
If DS could phase AVs in iTrials that would help. I brought up using it on Chimera in the Mag. iTrial so that we could take out Shadow Hunter/Nega Pendragon but...again Chim isn't phased in DS...he continues to kill peeps
*shrugs* -
You know I usually don't like Blasters at all because "they just do damage" and nothing really to them...
After watching the video with Burst of Speed....now the set may make Blasters fun to me....hmm..
Curses! More alts to make!
Edit:
Okay two things...
1.) Arbiter Hawk is a sucker for Chains and Teleporting powers....what about Teleporting Chains?! Or a Chain Teleport power?!
and
2.) How about replacing Dimension Shift with a chained version of Propel...or...chained version of Wormhole or a new chain teleport power!?
-
It's more story arcs from Dr. Aeon staring in, "kill even MORE Signature Heroes!"
-
Hmm...nice...
I don't think I'll be using these new sets but I like more sets so I'm not complaining

it would make more sense and be much more feasible to turn "Hellfire" into an epic pool combining some of the other demon hellfire attacks with the three whip attacks and then porting it to several ATs.
