certain attacks do .7 knockback so its knockdown unless your hitting blue con or lower baddies
other powers are defaulted to really high kb, such as crane kick or solar flare and the only way to turn it to knockdown is with the overwhelming force enhancement -
my first video game console was an NES lol and my families first computer was windows 95 lol
thats what i get for growing up in the 90s lol -
i believe its a 10% increase in the drop rate, however since most items are around 1-2% chance to drop (estimated) your not gonna see a significant increase
-
i hope genesis is actually a cool power and is not gutted like hybrid
hybrid is ok but it is severely disappointing as well as prolly one of the weakest incarnate powers to date, it was portrayed as a toggle, and a toggle is something you activate then forget about, the cloggle (click-toggle) it is now is just insanely annoying and i actually forget about it half of the time -
i agree that marauder seems like a really odd choice to appear in AP, praetorian penny yin or even dominatrix would make a better addition since praetorian penny joined our side from beginning and dominatrix defected before the fall of tyrant
without seeing more of the story and based on the past story it seems like a very odd choice to have marauder -
this issue i think has been going on since i23 was still in beta, until they provide a fix (which they havent) i doubt you will be able to use any aoes without mapserving

control hybrid is ok, but it will never give you the same dmg increase as assault
the control hybrid is more for adding mez to your attacks and even the one that has a dmg proc doesnt add that much
IMO the status resist is just pure awful, its essentially negligible, it will not protect you from mez (which you already have domination for anyway)
honestly with the poor poor design they released for hybrid the only real options are support or assault if your a ranged toon or assault, melee or support if your melee toon, control is essentially the bottom of the barrel unless you want a little bit of extra control/damage 50% of the time -
i usually never pay attention to zone populations since this game is focused towards instances, as well as what satanic hamster says in there are tons of zones so it will spread poeple out anyway
-
the best thing on there is prolly the olympic guard costume set, but since i already have it ill be saving points this week

it sounds crazy, but with how long the LOTR stuff was (regular movie was about 2.5 hours per movie, extended full edition was like 4.5 hours per movie)
they could easily stretch a full 5-6 hour movie over 2 hours fairly easy -
yes, more incarnate stuff would be fun, however i am looking for more passive buff type powers
hybrid originally was something i was really looking forward to, but they turned it into an abysmal power thats like a rehash of destiny with a negligible passive buff to try to appease poeple for not making it a perma toggle, its current form is arguably one of the weakest incarnate powers to date and i havent even bothered to try to work towards it on any of my toons except my main since he needed the badge for the unlock -
gaussian proc can and will stack with aim/build up as it is a different power
when the gaussian proc goes off it gives your character [boost up] which is the same stats as build up but it only lasts for 5 sec
i currently already have the guassian proc slotted into aim for my archery cold toon, but it is not very effective with the current proc system, i only seen it go off maybe 3-5 times total since its only 5% chance every time i hit aim
when the change happens it will most likely be 1 PPM (which is the value of the store bought version) which will give it a 90% chance to go off when i hit aim (since procs will cap at 90% chance to go off even if the PPM would say that it should go off every time) -
sounds like some of the CS people need to be brought up to speed on where the game is currently at, as freedom is almost a year old now lol

this isnt the first time that our server has been the only one which goes down, i guess the servers cant contain the awesomeness lol

Quote:according to the wiki both bane spider training.cloaking device and and both fortunata and night widow mask presence act just like stealth and are mutually exclusive with most other stealth powersOriginally Posted by Siolfir
Summary:
Stealth IO: allowed with anything, but is unique so only one can be slotted.
Hide: allowed with anything.
Super Speed (PvE only): allowed with anything.
Clicks (Grant/Group Invis): allowed with anything.
Everything else*: mutually exclusive.
So you get one of the "everything else" category and any number of the others up to the stealth cap.
* - not sure about Widow Mask Presence and Bane Cloaking Device, I think they might stack but safer to assume 'no'. -
the efficiency expert badge is fairly easy if you have incarnate stuff
there are a few maps which give you like 10 min time limits and are kill alls, thought your mostly fighting council though -
currently i slot the proc all the time, especially in toggle powers such as tactics or targeting drone/focused accuracy
i find that right now its more useful in those powers with the low chance of firing, but once the proc changes happen then it will be also very viable to build up like powers -
Quote:yep, i think the gaussian proc will be in the 1 PPM area so if your power rech in 60+ sec it will fire almost all the time (90% is the cap for PPMs when this change happens)Originally Posted by ClawsandEffect
So it will be better slotted into Aim or Build Up after the proc change then.
-
what hopeling says is right, currently it only has a 5% chance to proc on each activation of the power, but coming up all procs are gonna change to use the PPM system that ATOs and SBEs use

Quote:im not saying it shouldnt be offered again, i was saying how i much prefer that kind of a promotional item than the tweet codesOriginally Posted by Ultimus
So are you saying those that don't have it shouldn't have the wisp aura? What if its a new account or someone that was overseas as a Veteran that kept their account active but couldn't log into the game? Was that a fair shot?
at least with the wisp aura everyone had a chance to get it over the course of like 2 months, barring problems that you mentioned about logging in or for new players
the same however can be said about the loyalty program rewards -
always nice to see returning people lol
im usually around redside if you want something done, i dont have much stuff blueside though -
how they did the wisps aura was still better than this, the wisps aura EVERY player had a fair shot at cause all they had to do was start using the new launcher sooner than required
with the twitter promotional codes its basically whoever can enter it the fastest and who has the fastest most reliable internet -
ive never really been a fan of stuff like this, 9/10 times the codes are used up within the first 30 sec
will be nice to get it but hate that limited time items like this wont have another way to get them for very long time if ever -
as another bit of advice be careful going for the efficiency expert badge
you only get 1 shot at it per toon since that arc is not flashbackable, so i recommend running solo on the absolute min diff when going for that badge -
Quote:i feel that shards are redundant because if you are a fresh incarnate who just unlocked alpha, and you want to get alpha but also work on unlocking other slots your not gonna be getting shardsOriginally Posted by NaoGal
I don't feel that shards have become completely redundant.
Unlike threads, which drop from Incarnate-level content only, shards can drop from pretty much anything. And 10 shards + 1 million Inf = 10 threads once a day. Or, you can not pay the 1 million Inf and still get 5 threads from 10 shards.
It's helpful if you're trying to craft that last piece of iSalvage and find that you're a few threads short.
if you are getting shards your making essentially 0 progress on anything outside of alpha so if you already tier 4'd your alpha then shards are meaningless
i already convert all shards to threads regardless pretty much, 10 shards is much harder to get than 10 threads and you need a LOT more threads to do anything incarnate wise so shards are extremely inefficient along with being pointless post alpha
basically my point is that shards are ok for your alpha only but once you pass your alpha they become more of an annoyance since you dont get shards in incarnate content, and to make progress on non alpha slots your gonna be running incarnate content and the fact you can work on alpha slot through threads too also makes shards redundant. now if you HAD to use shards to progress on the alpha then i wouldnt have anything to say about shards as they still served some sort of a purpose
the only reason i can think of why shards were not used with the other incarnate slots as because the devs wanted to prevent shard hoarders from unlocking the post alpha slots too quickly when we first got them (and even then it did very little to stop hoarders), and since that time has also passed and they just continue to use threads on everything it would simplify the process to just eliminate shards
shard based components from the tfs and stuff can stay (just allow them to be crafted from threads using maybe half the required amount as other thread based components), but the shards themselves serve no purpose except as an extra currency that doesnt really help you post alpha
sorry for the rant lol, but i had to explain myself as you must not have understood my original post
