Quote:Well the Mole Machines do tend to only sit there and not do anything. Perhaps if they had Nemesis soldiers popping out or something, then they'd likely deserve an XP reward.Originally Posted by MisterD
The first time I did this mission, back in..issue 8 I think, I was all excited about the big purple tough mole machines..then discovered that they give ZERO xp. I was told, by some team mates, that they used to give a ton of xp, and it was one of the only redside farms...Then of course, because the devs ONLY hate redside farms..it got nerfed....to nothing at all.
So now you have a mission that takes ages, give no rewards, and it just flat out painful. Whenever I get it, I chance my diff to -1, no avs and map it for one..and it still takes far to long. Over-nerfing ftl.
BTW, did they fix the bug that had the Arachnos patrons and their minions set as enemies? Because I'm certain that they were supposed to be set as neutral. -
I have the uncanny ability to remember almost everything. So... no.

Being as I play characters that use and rely on control, I do notice it. Which is why I mentioned it. That you don't notice it doesn't make it irrelevant for anyone else.

Quote:Yeah, in future arcs, I would not mind at all if there were AVs that scale down to EBs. When I'm taking on EBs with or without Purple Triangles of Doom, I don't really notice that much of a difference. Not to mention that there is a definite demographic that likes soloing AVs. These people should be allowed to have their cake and eat it too.Originally Posted by Dr. Aeon
Hey guys!
We have been reading peoples feedback regarding the EBs in Dark Astoria. Right now, were planning on leaving them the same. The goal of Dark Astoria was to provide challenging content for solo players and small teams; upgrading these EBs to be AVs that scale down, at this point in development, has the risk of causing a number issues that could hamper this experience, which is something we want to avoid. However, we are taking the feedback into consideration for future arcs, so please continue to give us your opinions about this. Thanks!

So yeah, if in a future arc where you're supposed to fight someone who is very large and in charge, having him as an AV that scales down to EB would feel just right. As I said, some of us barely notice the Purple Triangles. -

I think you need to re-read what I said. Even someone who is obviously a ninja is not obviously not a ninja.

I'm actually in agreement about the face. Something looks off about his whole head, I'd say. Maybe it's just the camera angle, but Statesman's face looks older, and the helmet looks less like something Roman-inspired and more like movieverse Magneto's helmet.

I was punching a Knives of Artemis in the face.

I would love to see broadsword proliferated to tankers. It's kind of a no-brainer that they should have it.

Except from my standpoint, tankers are fine.

Quote:HA! THERE IT IS! See? I told ya guys.Originally Posted by Johnny_Butane
Yes. You are an outlier that doesn't reflect the majority of players who probably still can't solo AVs.
But hey, as long you want the devs to cater to extreme minorities, I know a Tanker player who thinks they have damage issues. He'd like that looked into so they could do things like solo AVs as well as some melee ATs can.

Until the option exists to run the trial Incarnate path solo, there's no need to give teams more options for the DA path. They already get a whole path to themselves that is faster than the only option open to solo players.
And this isn't even about that DA doesn't allow teaming and locks them out like trials lock out soloists or that DA discourages teaming in some way. It's about complaining DA's content is not satisfying to powerful teams and doesn't cater to them.
Newsflash: DA is too easy for teams because it's not designed for teams. It's not designed for teams because it is intended to be the solo Incarnate tract.
Take the hint.

Quote:Like I said earlier, this is the same guy that thinks that tankers are "underpowered."Originally Posted by _Psi_
I enjoy that he ignores the fact that everyone in this thread has said it should be optional, yet he insists that it will impact his own personal enjoyment of the encounters.
Fun logic you have there, dude. Can I borrow some of those crazy pills?

Quote:She does have a combat aura as seen in the second image. The first image is from pre-30 (and pre-Ultra Mode).Originally Posted by Memphis_Bill
For an upgrade, does she glow and float in the air screaming 'aaaaaaAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!" for three issues before the attack goes off?
-
Yeah, the lack of the underscore from radio/newspaper missions leads me to suspect that this is a deliberate joke on the Devs' part.

Quote:Really?Originally Posted by GuyPerfect
I'll be honest, it's not obviously not a ninja.
Or is it because her Stealth is off?

Really, at this point, you might as well be arguing with GG or Venture. They and Butane all come from the same school of circular arguments.

Quote:I remember that there once were only three steps to this plan.Originally Posted by LISAR
Step 1 Become Incarnate
Step 2 Use Oroborus to travel back in time to before Reichman gave his troops access to the well yet not so far I loose everything
Step 3
Step 4 Profit -

Bah, how are we supposed to know she's a ninja if she isn't wearing bright colors and screaming the names of her attacks?

Pity the removal of said mission isn't that great an idea either, because now there's next to no explanation for how the Phalanx ended up in the Trial.

Far as I can tell, by including AVs as optional (key word: optional, as in not appearing unless we want them to), this strips the solobility of it. Somehow. Maybe it retroactively makes his XP less than my XP. I don't know.
I'm really befuddled as to why anyone would have a problem with optional AVs.Well, Johnny is that chucklehead that thinks tankers are somehow "underpowered." So go fig.Quote:Originally Posted by IndyStruck
I was unaware we were on trial, but, considering your answer to requests for a harder difficulty are "go trial" I suppose that's not too surprising. -
Nice play with perspective there.

First thing I think: "I am so sick of seeing Ninja Run on obviously non-ninja characters." I've seen it on everything from animals to wizards to construction workers, but I can't remember a time I've ever actually seen it on a ninja.

Scythus would have betrayed Zuhkara and taken charge of the Circle of Thorns ritual to kill all the Mu descendants himself and dramatically progress his ultimate goal of killing everyone on the planet.
