Quote:We took down the Seer network in the MoM Trial - just like taking control of the Keyes Island reactors stripped his army of robots - by the time we corner him and the last of his loyalist thugs in Nova Praetoria, he's only got some of his IDF soldiers left, a handful of Olympian Guards, and the final 3 henchpeople we haven't defeated yet.Originally Posted by Ogi
It's a good thing he wasn't surrounded by those Telepathists whose debuff lets rocks thrown by unpowered humans kill incarnates. Imagine Telepathists + Nuke given what a pebble can do under that debuff.
Since the BAF attack, we've been systematically degrading the loyalists' military capacity - that's why Tyrant went "nuclear" - he didn't have anything else left. -

They were overconfident. Imagine that an overconfident man. LOL!

Which did absolutely jack squat to prevent the destruction of a major part of it.

The revamped Shadowhunter has some unique doggy powers - think Anubis

A wooden chair, rope and her legs left free instead of a metal chair attached to the floor, and handcuffs for her wrists and ankles suggests that they have no idea who she is

So if Tyrant were a Chippendale's dancer, he'd be unstoppable?

I'm interested to see any possible connections between Tyrant calling on the power of Tartarus and the dead, and the description of Night Ward as being half in the world of the living, and half in the world of the dead, and that it's an "eternal prison" - like it could be connected to Tartarus in the underworld in Greek mythology where the Titans were imprisoned by Zeus - so if there was an avatar of Zeus hanging around with it's Well buddy, a free Titans might hold a grudge against it, and want to find a way of freeing his people.

Quote:The answer is clothing - Tyrant was wearing too much if it, making him eaiser to defeat.Originally Posted by Energizing_Ion
Okay so I just re-watched parts of the mmorpg video.
Black Swan's battle:
Started: ~29:36
Ended: ~34:47
Total time: ~5 mins+
Tyrant's Battle:
Started: ~36:00
Ended: ~40:17
Total time: ~4 mins.
So...Black Swan is better/more powerful than Tyrant -
Quote:But that doesn't make sense story-wise - hitting level 30 in First Ward with Tyrant and the loyalists still in power then getting a pop up with the opening Night Ward contact taking you to a zone where Tyrant and the loyalists have been overthrown is way too big a jump.Originally Posted by Lycantropus
50 for one set of characters, but time has stopped at 30 in Praetoria currently. Those characters that are 'native' and have stayed as such (now there are exceptions like folks who EX down and helped other people with their missions until they reach 50) are technically right in tune with the timeline if they picked up with post Cole in the 30-40 timeline for them.
That would make the Praetorian storyline be 1-30 Tyrant's in power, 30-35 the war's been and gone, and Tyrant's gone, 50+ Tyrant's in power, the war starts and ends.
It also doesn't fit with the theme of progressive decay that's all through Praetoria and the leveling path - Nova Praetoria is a fake utopia - it's too perfect - Imperial City is almost normal, Neutropolis is run down, First Ward is ruined, Night Ward is half in the realm of the dead - there's a very stong use of visual storytelling going on in Praetoria that's an important part of the whole story.
Plus, there's also some possibly important links in the Tyrant Trial - when Tyrant nukes the place with the power of Tartarus, he also calls on the power of the dead - Tartarus was the place in the underworld in Greek mythology where the Titans were imprisoned by Zeus, and in the I23 overview, Night Ward is described as being half in the land of the dead, and as an "eternal prison" - placing Night Ward in a pre-war slot in the storyline would give Tyrant's rather left field call on Tartarus and the dead a lot more context - and it might also explain why Dominatrix suddenly just shows up with us at the start of the Tyrant Trial cutscene, with no context either. -

IIRC, in the comics, Praetoria is a RUIN when our heroes go traipsing over there. Maybe this is how it reaches said state?

I've never ignored anyone on the forums, and the only tiem I use it in-game is for the gold sellers

Quote:That would be very out of sync with the level and story progression - post-Praetorian war content below 50 would eb very weirdOriginally Posted by Lycantropus
I would hope this turns into the launch point of the 30-40 Praetorian content, playing those Loyalist and Resistance characters having to put aside their differences and come together to rebuild and help protect a now much weaker Praetoria. I'd like to see them develop 'choice' missions to accept or reject the help of Primals in that process, much like the DA arcs have changes to them based on choices you make as the story progresses.

Oh, in that case I have screen shots for whoever wants them. Just have to upload to a host.

I think that tney mean the I23 overview, not the Tyrant Trial stream
-
The cutscene starts around the 35 minute mark - you can see Domi and Desi at the start, and Aurora with her funky new outfit
-
I think what's really funny about the clip is the way that's she's totally in control of the situation the whole time, and they just don't realize it, even when she makes it so obvious to them, like her look at the 7 second mark

Quote:Content levels generally follow a timeline - and there's a pretty strong possiblility that even though Night Ward and the Tyrant Trial are bieng released together in I23, Night Ward will have some references to Tyrant still ruling Praetoria.Originally Posted by Kheprera
And? To me, released at the same time indicates a parallel existence. Just because it's 50+ doesn't mean it happens in the future, otherwise too much in the game would make zero sense to many characters just starting out, especially when sidekicking with higher level characters.
-
I also think it's pretty funny that they actually turned it back into the devestated wasteland that we first saw in Maria Jenkins' original arc

Or Peoria, Illinois! Man, it must be awkward when the teleporters for BAFs get Praetoria and Peoria confused and a team of supers attack the Bureau of Agriculture and Farming.

May I point out that First Ward will still exist.
Since it's linked to the new Praetorian zone Night Ward. -
