In addition to the many obvious changes to the difficulty slider, one that may go unnoticed is that there is no longer an inf cost to fiddle with it.

Quote:We had the same issue with ouroboros portal while on Positron TF. Very inconvenient and annoyingOriginally Posted by Master-Blade
I think they settled on powers within 5 levels of the lvl you EX to.. and you can still get XP within that range as well.. if I understand it correctly. Any powers higher than that will still be unavailable like before.
Also, to add to the list:
You cannot summon an Ouroboros Portal while EX'd. The animation will play, but no portal will appear. If you quit your team and become un-EX'd, the portal will suddenly appear where you had just clicked a minute ago. It's quite spooky. -

You never 'needed' them for anything.
However, they are insanely powerful and well worth having. -
It isn't only Gaussian. I saw icons from decimation and souldbound procs as well

I noticed that too. And it isn't new. I started to noticing it long before i16 went live (probably around i13). I'm usually using them to get domination going for my Dom before LGTF starts.

Quote:It seems that his to-hit as well as defense bonuses are coming from yellow tower. Lately, when we are running regular STF, we are leaving red and blue towers and taking down yellow and green. If we are running speed MoSTF we are taking down red, yellow and green, leaving blue.Originally Posted by Master-Blade
Just to clarify, it's his buffed state (with towers) that is beyond the caps. Once the Red and Blue towers come down, all his damage, recharge, and tohit bonuses are gone, and most tanks can just stand there without being harmed. While the team is still working on the towers, just pop a couple Purples to help you out and/or pop Eye of Magus if you have it.
One key tip is do not attack him.. just use taunt. The more you attack any enemy, the more the AI is likely to attack you back. If you are just Taunting, you will be attacked less often and it greatly increases your chance of survival.
On sidenote: it seems that blue tower gives him huge recharge bonus. Without blue tower, LR rarely has a chance to summon more than 1 set of his pets, on another hand, with blue tower, he can summon 2-4 sets very quickly before he is taken down. -

Can you get them to spawn in the Lady Grey TF mission to Thorn Tree in the same manner?

Quote:Run TV nemesis map or Unai's freak map solo or padded, you will get 12-14 IOs per run, just saying...Originally Posted by Darkbridger
You'd have to have a lot of data to back that up to convince anyone. How in the world would drop rates be tied to map? This makes no sense, especially when compared to dev statements about how the rates actually work.
-
Quote:I don't think drop rates depend on team size, according to my observation it is based on map, not team size or difficulty settingsOriginally Posted by macskull
It will effectively eliminate 90% of the broadcasts and tells for fillers. That alone makes it worth it, in many players' eyes. While I was usually very careful about who and where I sent tells asking for fillers (and almost never used broadcast), I won't have to do that anymore.Quote:
Positron doesn't like farming, but we're now getting the ability to appear as an 8-person team while solo?!? Color me (with customization) confuzzled.
We also don't know whether 1) these new difficulty settings will work in MA missions, or 2) if the drop rates will scale to the number of virtual teammates. However, if the drop rates act like they do in a padded mission currently (1 person getting all the drops their teammates would be getting) this change might serve to alleviate the rising prices of purples. -
Quote:Same here...Originally Posted by Panzerwaffen
I disagree 100%. DR and the merit system has accomplished its intentions. Players on my server now run a larger variety of TF's on a much more frequent basis. I tend to run with a very TF oriented group of players, and we love speed runs, and not once has anyone ever suggested switching alts and running the same TF back-to-back. It's much more fun this way. Repeatedly running the same thing over & over using the same strategy every time gets old real quick.
I'm running 3-5 speed TFs/SFs every day with the same group of people. I don't remebeber us running the same TF back to back. While it possible we can run couple ITFs or LGTFs, but there would be something in between... -

So if the timer is LONGER THAN 18 hours, /bug it! -
Quote:There we go... Thanks for link Zombie Man.Originally Posted by Zombie Man
I just went through all the I14 and I15 Patch Notes and there was no mention of it. So, it might be a stealth change.
I checked whether it was implemented or not first day i14 was released: ran the same tf on the same toon before 24 hours passed, and I wasn't hit by DR, so I assumed it was implemented. -
It is certainly less than 24 hours now. Before i14 or i15 was released (i don't remember which one), someone of red names mentioned that they were looking at DR timer and it will be lowered in next release.
In past couple months I ran TF/SFs under assumption that DR timer is 18 hours (don't ask me where I got this number
, I think it was mentioned somewhere on boards) and I never had been hit with DR. Patch notes don't have anything about DR.
I posted this question because, it seems, that timer even lower than 18 hours. I ran ITF with some player last nite. It was completed at 1:43 AM EST. That player ran ITF today again on the same toon. It ended at 2:30 PM EST and that player got all 28 merits in less than 13 hours. -
Can anyone tell what is TF/SF DR timer now? It was 24 hours in the past. It's been changed since i14 or i15.
