    The -dmg crash at the end of rage does NOT stop or reduce the damage from Judgement or Reactive Interface.

    1) My main project for the weekend was to get one villain to the max level for each mayhem mission. I already had a 9, got one existing character from 42 to 44, and got new characters to levels 14, 19, 24, 29, 34, and 39. Stupid, I know, but it was something to do, and I've done the whole "get a new character to 50 in one day" thing on more than enough previous occasions.

    2) I got a 43, a 46, a 48, and a 49 all to 50. I started trying to get a level 44 pact of pistol corrupters up to 50 too, but then I realized that I really hated both characters so much that I deleted them instead.

    3) Started new Tanker and Scrapper versions of a couple of my favorite Brutes (DM/Elec and Elec/Shield), got em to 22 and SOs.

    4) Really missed doing incarnate trials. Who'da thunk it?

    Full Neural Integration already but we still can't recolor hasten? It's a slap in the face, I tell you.

    What part of it is so much fun? Waiting and waiting and waiting for attacks to arrive? Massive Laser Death from Above because there's hardly anybody in the zone (probably because many players got sick of waiting and logged off)? This event is a giant disappointment compared to previous Rikti invasions.

    In that case wouldn't there be some improvement after the first 15 hours of the event? It's not getting any better.

    What I'm seeing on Virtue is lots of invasions, 2 or 3 zones being invaded simultaneously then nothing at all for hours.
    Same on Guardian.

    On the other hand, here comes another one now so maybe it was temporary. Hooray!

    I don't remember previous Rikti invasions being quite as lame as this one. Did all the Rikti fall asleep and forget to attack?
  10. Smedley_Prime
    Yes.

    And procs work no matter what level you may exemp down or up to.
    Perhaps that's true of other procs, but not FF Chance for +Rech. This one has never worked for me when I exemp below my current level. Even if, for instance, a level 50 character has a level 21 IO and flashes back to a level 40 mission, it doesn't trigger. I never tested it in AE, but from your message it sounds like this IO is even worse in AE and doesn't work there regardless of level.

    is pinnacleas some sort of ancient times person? im not sure if its just something i made up or i just dont know how to spell it correctly to find a wiki page about it.

    i thought it might have been an ancient greek person or deity but i didnt seem to find anything about it

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I did find an article on the web that mentions a Greek God named Pinnacles, however that article also mentioned gods named Popsicles, Posttoasties, and Chefboyardees so I'm starting to wonder if it might not be a serious article.

    I don't care about most of those items, but that skull mask alone appears to be worth $10.

    Minus 1 billion coolness points for not calling the thread Drops II: Electric Boogaloo.

    I actually wanted to go with Drops II: Drops Harder

    Either is fine, as long as the next one is called Drops 3D

    Changes to Rage

    POST-ACTION

    [ QUOTE ]
    Many players complained about the stun at the end of Rage because it turned off toggles and left them helpless. At the same time, hardcore players with perma-unstoppable or Unyielding were able to avoid the Stun effect. Thus the casual player was getting penalized and hardcore player wasn’t getting the desired penalty. We're still looking at the issue - so feel free to post your thoughts & ideas!

    While you're fixing things... I don't think it's quite fair that bad guys can hit my character with baseball bats while hardcore players with hover can just float in the air and avoid this penalty. Therefore I think you should change hover so that it's a click power which causes the user to catch on fire at the end of two minutes. Or maybe change baseball bats so that they have infinite range.
