  1. I'm going to have to see it before I can possible imagine what changes to my builds I'll have to make.

    I'm not particularly good at speculation.

    Oh, be fair, I'm capable of writing far worse than I currently post.

    Sure, maybe what I do post isn't fit for human consumption, but that doesn't mean I decided it wasn't fit for human consumption. You give me too much forethought.

    And I have to read all the posts that I start writing and eventually decide aren't fit for human consumption.
  4. Well, the paragon dance party pack and the roman armour pack are back on the market. Aside from that, I think it'd be surprising if they had something new this week because they had expected to have the market down for maintenance.

    Don't forget burnout, so they can all use Gang War a second time.

    Insert my stock response to anyone who does this: So?
    I thought it was noting a milestone, like taking a picture of a car's odometer when it's rolling over. It's not an "I'm better than you because my car has 100,000 units of distance traveled" it's a "Wow, I've got 100,000 units of distance. That seems significant to me and I would like to recognize it."

    Do you also consider celebrating a birthday a "parts measuring contest"?

    Not Sonic Attack/Martial Combat? Or does martial combat have too much AoE damage to play nicely with Siren's Song?

    I was pretty sure that Arcanaville posts were already customizable. To whit:

    I vote for replacing it with Reach for the Limit.

    On what character?

    I imagine that my Tanker would see significantly more damage from Judgment.

    I've got an Electric Armour/Energy Melee tank, and endurance is not an issue. I tend to use Power Sink to open fights, in the hopes that I might reduce some incoming damage with endurance drain.

    I like the tank, he's not one of my favourites, but he's not bad.

  18. Things this would break:

    Enhancement Boosters. These currently work with invention origin IOs but not with attuned IOs.

    Exemplar builds. Yes, the set bonuses persist throughout all levels, but an attuned enhancement on a level 50 character provides level 50 enhancement bonuses no matter what level you're exemplared to. This is fine for 30+ content where it has no effect. However, for other content, level 50 enhancement bonuses will get scaled down, when level 42 enhancement bonuses might not. With careful building, you can get maximum enhancement bonuses in the powers you will have when exemplared down and good set bonuses in the powers you won't have.
  19. I have hasten on two characters.

    My Radiation/Electric Defender has hasten to get Accelerate Metabolism perma. However, I have a planned build that gets rid of hasten.

    My toggle-less Invulnerability/Ice Melee tanker has hasten.

    No, it's beneficial for everyone who can build defense using the invention system.

    The people who show up are not only dependent upon your choice of hero or villain but also Merchand or Stevens and what arcs and missions you completed while in Praetoria.
  22. Well, we got a free respec with the anniversary of the game, in late April. We got a free hat on July 3rd.

    So, I'm going to say that no, we haven't seen the last of the freebies. You probably just haven't been paying enough attention.
  23. To get the badge you have to do at least one arc outside of your chosen path, which means it's easier to wait until level 15 and run your chosen path and then one of the other two paths available to you (I generally run responsibility and warden). And then I have to run at +0(x1) and skip any of the spawns that I don't need to defeat to complete the mission. Or I can turn off experience.

    There's sewage lines and then there's storm drains. I don't know how it works in New York, but in San Diego, the sewage lines go to water treatment and the storm drains get emptied directly into the ocean.
