    Not only that but having the system allow for conversion of shards to threads at a 1:1 ratio when converting 10 shards, IMO really should also go in the other direction. Atleast then if your going to maintain two seperate systems you can convert the base salvage for each into the other so you can work on all your slots no matter what trial or TF your running.
    alpha can already be done with threads as well as shards, so there really isnt even a need for the shards anymore
  2. agree 1000%, with the alpha you want, shards ARE worthless and you have to spend money to convert then

    shards atm are just a complete waste of money, if you could do a 1 shard to 1 thread conversion for free and have a 1 thread to 1 shard for free with increase in shard drop rates it would not be that bad

    the biggest complaint i have is the insane inf costs for the very rare components

    very rare components already do cost money if you buy all of the rare components required for them
  3. yeah if your graphics driver/card wasnt dying i would have to say those bumble bee bots and striped luminary/valkyrie are pretty sweet lol

    mag 2 doesnt seem right, but mids is saying mag 2 as well

    thought it was always mag 3

    if they were past subscribers they would have to reactivate their account if it was a full account

    extended or non-time-limited trial accounts are a different type of account due to the restrictions, the moment they upgraded to a full account they would have to pay for it and when they reactivated they woul have to continute paying for it, ect
  6. its not exactly hard to just get a new trial account, and since all the toons max at lvl 14 with only 50k inf, your not really losing anything

    plus the fact that trials can only speak in local and team chat (no tells) and they cannot join global channels all but cuts them off of the rest of the game population anyway

    im not saying extended trial accounts are necessarilly a bad thing, but they are so limiting that the person using it would prolly just quit rather than get a full account if they are so against paying for it unless they were ONLY using the trial as a way to play with the costume creator
  7. the general consensus around here is absolutely not free to play

    and if you were advocating unlimited time trial accounts, what would be the point? there are so many trial restrictions in place i dont know how anyone could stand to play a trial longer than 2 weeks anyway
  8. i agree with this, it does get confusing very easily if you dont have the team window showing buff icons

    if your showing buff icons it will also tell you if teammates are in different zones which is the only way ive been able to tell if the person is dead or not
  9. i used to have a fire/earth dom but running both was a huge end usage even ED capped for end reduct

    i liked the extra dmg personally, but i dont like fire control very much so i deleted him

    shards ARE obsolete if you are trying to do anything past the alpha slot, and even then you can get ALL your alpha stuff with threads anyway so shards really are obsolete

    was talking in global channel with some other poeple who think the same, and almost everyone ive talked to think:
    • shards are obsolete and need to be gotten rid of and replaced entirely with threads
    • or have their drop rate increased since they are fairly useless

    /this, i ran both a lambda and BAF today and the BAF lag was significantly reduced
  12. i doubt it, the 3rd build would work just like the other 2, you will have the crab backpack if ANY of your 3 builds has crab powers

    the only way to completely get rid of the backpack is to not use crab powers at all
  13. since the last patch my main mm has gotten about 5 rares and 1 very rare (with very few uncommon/common tables), only got threads once due to dcing near end of trial

    a prime reason i dont do hami raids is because i feel the only reward worth getting is the 57 reward merits

    a single HO (which can be gotten from STF/LRSF) or 4 shards (which you can get 2-3x the amount from a tf like ITF) is just not worth the amount of lag and preparation needed to take on hami

    i dont know if 12-16 shards would be an adequate amount, but it would definitely be worth more than it is now
  15. praetorians may not get a newspaper/radio but they do get special contacts with unlimited repeatable mishs (which are essentially the same since you have to call them to get mishs)

    i think theres 2 different ones depending if you are resistance or loyalist
  16. i think around the time GR was released, particle burst used to be autohit but it was changed in one of the post launch fix patches

    I see the incarnate on button, but not where i can pick alpha slot and so on.
    double click it and it will open the menu
  18. not had a problem getting anything together on victory server, if i want a tf, can form it up no problem
  19. this month they are starting closed beta testing of new incarnate trials so we will get some more variety before i21

    i would like to see some reward options added to AE because AE is literally worthless to try to make progress on anything except increasing your inf (through running and tickets) and xp for lvling

    the biggest thing that hurt AE for me was the massive badge removal, if we didnt lose all those badges i would have been darn near 1280 badges by now
  20. so far ive never had problems controlling my lore pets, they all have seemed fairly responsive to my commands

    i just drag over the default attack command and edit it to be "attack defensive" so they are in a defensive mode unless i need them to attack a specific target

    not sure what would be causing that then cause ive never seen it jump unless theres at least 1-2 other targets near your primary target

    if it is doing multiple jumps on a single target then that would be bugged but jumping between several targets and hitting same target multiple times does not seem bugged to me

    k
    the OP was using a MM, this is the 2nd thread they started about it (they had one from before when the jumps were dmg buffed)

    ion will do all its jumps almost at the same time so its very possible it was just jumping between him and all of his pets which is why it could have hit him 4-5 times easy

    this is how it was for me too

    Patron powers?

    my fort build doesnt have any patron powers, while my bane build did used to have mace mastery for shatter armor + placate + shatter combo

    Patron powers?

    they are not crucial, but if you did want one i would get the mace mastery pool for the shatter armor power and the mace mastery powers on soldiers will not cause redraw if you are a bane tree with mace powers
