Cut was deemed overpowered because you could eliminate the threat of wild Pokémon in tall grass.

Hey, guess Back Alley Brawler's back in the Freedom Phalanx now!

Oops.

Also, Numina is not a ghost.

Oops.

Hey, I don't judge! If you're a proponent of the Devouring Earth, go for it.

Well, Hamidon won't necessarily kill you. He'll just turn you into a ravenous monster bent on destroying and/or corrupting everyone you ever loved.

But hey, if it means sticking it to that mean old dictator guy, it's worth it, isn't it!?

I'm a dirty cheater and selected the Snowbeast badge on my ice character.

And my Toxic damage, armored glob character wants The Solution for the play on words.

I can't check the build in Mids to glance at the set bonuses at the moment, but as usual, I'd like to point out that Bane I keep pointing out, which is neither squishy nor single-target.

Seriously need to debunk a few things:

* Banes are not Stalkers. They don't do as much damage per attack (by a long shot), but they DO have ranged and AoE attacks. They're more like Blasters with mez protection. Think for a second how awesome it would be if you had a Blaster with mez proteciton.

* Banes have more attacks than just the mace. Yes, the rifle causes redraw, but it's got some GREAT powers in it. Skipping those on merit of "it's not Bane" is like... skipping Spine Burst, Impale and Throw Spines just because they're not melee powers like the rest of the Spines set.

* Banes are not, in the typical sense, squishy. As mentioned above, all Soldiers have mez protection, which goes a long way like you wouldn't believe. They get ~30% Defense to Ranged without set bonuses, which means they can shoot at stuff without worrying about the alpha retaliation killing them. For Banes specifically, they get additional Defense from Cloaking Device, have considerable stealth, and can Placate in the event of a pesky boss.

* Banes are not melee. The bulk of the mace damage is, but there's quite a selection of gun attacks too. There's a "Huntsman" approach that's somewhat popular, which focuses on the Wolf powers with a stray Bane power tossed in, but think about doing that the other way around. Your Bane will be melee if you only pick the melee powers, sure, but that requires you to ignore a lot of your available selections.

Woo! I shall critique it posthaste once I return to a computer that has at least a billion memories to load up Mids on it.

*Head explodes*

Zombie attacks also occur when the Katie Hannon Task Force is completed.

* Dwarf can be shifted into while mezzed
* The ranged attacks are now 80 feet like normal ranged sets
* Toggles don't suppress while mezzed anymore, so your shields don't shut off
* Light Form was tweaked and is now perma-able resistance and mez protection
* Photon Seekers have a larger blast radius, but less damage
* The bonus damage from the Quantum Array Gun is now Negative Energy and resistible

What's with all the Crab threads lately? )-:<

Pessimist:
It's related to Paragon Rewards, certainly. Not that it *should* have anything to do with the UI code, but the devs and decoupling don't mix.

Optimist:
Something broke; don't know how, don't know when. They'll get it fixed, like with the fog of war on the minimap in the next patch.

Cynic:
They introduced the bug so people would praise them when they fix it. It's a quick and simple PR ploy.

Hey, Incrnate staff (Positron, et al), is this the kind of endgame you were expecting?

No?

Then cut and take 2. Players appreciate your stuff only slightly more than you listen to them. It's not working, and that's your problem.
