Quote:They're empowered by Tyrant through the Well - all the loyalist AVs are now cosmic level threats because of the power Tyrant has given them,a nd even his normal stormtroopers and war robots have gained new levels of power from him - while Tyrant himself has a level of power from the Well that we've never seen before.but we still need 12-24 incarnates to take down one supposedly "non-incarnate" AV(Siege/Nightstar are not incarnates for one example).
He might already be gone by the time we get to him - if he takes too much power from the Well, he'll become lost to the Well - like he'll burn out from Incarnate power overload, or be totally taken over by the Well - so any confrontation with Tyrant might actually shift into a showdown with the Well.Quote:We haven't even had a hint of facing Emperor Cole directly, but I wouldn't be surprised if it requires a few gimmicks("without which failure is guaranteed") and 24 full incarnate players, just to barely defeat him to where he can talk before he is finished.
In other words, Tyrant might defeat Tyrant - his insane lust for power and control could lead him to try and absorb more power than even he could handle - which would be a neat end to the corruption of power theme in his backstory - the man who wanted ultimate power would be destroyed by ultimate power while trying to achieve ultimate power. -
Quote:Actually, we're fighting the Wll too, not just Tyrant and the loyalists - the power of the Well is not the same as the will/mind of the Well - the path we're taking bypasses the contolling part of the Well, but still gives us access to the power of the Well.I like to think of it as the Well actually tricking you. You think you're more powerful, but you're actually weaker. That's what the Incarnate Trials feel like.
Soloable Incarnate arcs or missions will be added at later date - they'll be faster than the current solo rate, but still slower than the core Incarnate content of the Trials.Quote:But hey, Signature Story Arcs just might be the thing to get those who don't like the iTrials out of them and progressing at a halfway-livable rate, once enough of them are released to get a good amount of Incarnate Rewards every week. -

There are no mobs on them, so following them lets you move around the zone without needing to fight.

My normal account had no problems, but my old Euro account seemed to block buying loads of points.

I never knew that the Underground had been built for the purpose of hiding Tyrant's crimes from the people of Praetoria - I alwasys thought it was more like a maintenance network to keep the overground parts of the city looking as pretty as possible?
It's also sensible to call Statesman the "apparent leader of Primal Earth's forces" - as I'm pretty sure that Recluse wouldn't agree to that description - or even Prometheus
-
I think it's quite good for showing good vs evil theme of the game, especially as the war with Praetoria has gone passed the Rikti storyline to become the major plotline in the game - but I still think Arachnos should get a look in somewhere - Recluse has a pretty wacky comicbook villain design

EDIT: I also made a female version of the artwork when it was first previewed on the fourms back in June:

Maybe it's intended as a more light-hearted look at Villains to balance out the darker stuff in the Mercy Island revamp? The blue side training arcs play a similar role to the semi-apocalyptic tone of the tutorial and following Atlas content revamp.

Quote:I wasn't talking about game mechanicsYes you are. You're /regen, you don't have any psi damage resist outside of procs and set bonuses.
Even then you wouldn't have a lot.
What you mean to say is that you are PROTECTED against MOST STATUS EFFECTS.
I know it can be confusing, but there's three powersets that can deal psionic damage without being control sets.

In the invasion event today, we fought the DE and the loyalists at the same time - Duray said that while they were on Primal Earth to stop the DE, they might as well try and expand their control over it - so it looks like Tyrant forgot to erase all of those memories properly
