It worked for me. I expect that whilst is says "defeat Valkyrie" you also need to defeat the minions that spawn with her.

Think she gives xp twice, like Freakshow.

It's from the game files...


Yeah, I also thought it would make sense to have vanguard take over security in FBZ (then they could actually fight, rather than just pretend).

I would certainly recomend not playing on Union until this is fixed. Even if your character is not affected, It seems not unlikely that a server rollback will be needed to fix affected characters.

Welcome back!

Looks like a hardware fault, similar to the one Union had with enhancements.

Looks serious anyway, I'll do a notify moderator, see if GR is around.

Is this a server specific issue?

Quite so, perma-rage was standard practice prior to ED.

How many players actually know that Dark Melee and War Mace got major buffs in issue 13? Buffs don't work, because players tend to only notice nerfs.

[/ QUOTE ]

Random, non-answerable question followed by absolute decree.

Given the number of Warshades and Peacebringers I've seen in teams over the last month I'd say plenty of people notice buffs.

They just don't shout as loudly here about it really.

[/ QUOTE ]

Sure, lots of people know about the keldian buffs, it was widly publicised.

But the buffs to Dark and WM where slipped in with no indication of just how substantial they where.

I've been here long enough to observe just how commonly buffs slip under the radar, because they are often the sets that people aren't playing. So evene when they are buffed up to the level of the other sets or beyond they remain underplayed because people think they are still weak.

Londoner, you seem to be implying that there is some sadistic pleasure people get from nerfing a toon that is overpowered. I think the usual feeling is regret.

I dont know what you get out of it mate, it's not me calling for more un needed nerfs.

[/ QUOTE ]

Im not either, Im calling for needed nerfs. And, once again, in conjunction with needed buffs.

[/ QUOTE ]

There not needed though, because in this case in to not the powerset, but people's perception that is at fault. (and next month there will be an all new fotm).

Psi AVs can almost 2 shot Granite brutes, cause they got no psi defense at all.

And One with The Earth, and Rooted.

WP is a little better against Psi, but it is far far inferior vs S/L and even worse vs F/C/E/N.

[/ QUOTE ]

Of course you cant move at all with those powers active and you forget about the regen WP has as its main way to migitate damg :-)

[/ QUOTE ]
Given that we got here from your sentence Psi AVs can almost 2 shot... why is movement so important when facing AVs? Until the AV AI is upped the AVs don't tend to move that much...

[/ QUOTE ]

Very true, and when facing off against a single AV Stone will have more regen than WP does.

No, I didn't forget the regen. Stone also has regen (not as much), but with much higher res, def and +hp stone is way way ahead against anything but psi and toxic damage.

Would something like this explain the muzzle-flash on my Arachnos Soldier gun being off to the side now? The gun is also disappearing on most instanced mission maps as well.

I've soloed AVs with my Illusion/TA controller.

If you complete the other mission objectives first, that mission completes the first time Valkrie goes down, so you don't have to defeat her twice.

3. People will naturally gravitate towards more powerful sets (dont even try to deny it).

[/ QUOTE ]

They gravitate towards sets they think are more powerful, because they see other people playing it and ask about it, or they read threads on the forums whining about how overpowered a certain set is.

Don't try to tell me that /WP is defensively stronger than /Stone, or has better aoe damage than fire/fire, and how many have noticed that with the issue 13 buffs to Dark Melee just how powerful Dark/SR can be?

*Not all content is intended to be soloable by all characters.


Leave the challenging mobs alone please (and if you think Valkyrie EB is tough, try Statesman EB in the VEAT arc).

It's just normal variation, but if you have fewer than 8 people on the team you increase the probability of bosses spawning if you play on Unyealding rather than Invincible.

A point that people overlook is WP is the worst aggro holding ability of any defense set - which on a brute hurts damage, as well as the usefulness of the brute to the team.

And SS is pure smashing damge, which is resisted by many mobs.

SS/WP is fotm at the moment because people think it's better, but they are not taking all the factors into acount.

Well, villains need putting in thier place.

Who cares, no one plays villains anyway.

You exit so I can reset to heroic.

someone is telling me I have to go.


possibly.

She will, just as soon as the devs get round to making the animations...

Was reading the report from the new recon officer in RWZ, and noticed he began by saying this:

"You have arrived in the Rikti War Zone, which is the first area to be considered a 'war zone'."

This suggests that there may eventually be a second.
