    But the sword is EVIL!!!!

    Well, maybe now that we won the war, Black Swan might be gone, and the sword might be friendly again, so if we salvaged it from the rubble....

    Mine seem symmetrical.

    I thought it was usually more symmetrical than not. And the only usual unsymmetrical part was the size comparison of each side. I was wrong?

    I repeat, the devs got it right.

    In other news, at that level, any of my tankers can do that without my shields even toggled on except mez shield. Even then, I am pretty sure my hp can take what the mobs give out till I can combine the inspirations into a break free.

    In other other news, the sun is hot.
    +0/1 is kinda sad for a tanker. +0/4 at the least, because any higher and -to hit mobs in missions become hard to hit.

    So the answer to ElecA vs WP is that they are evenly matched against +0/1...

    Boooo!
    I feel ya.

    Logged in after not logging in at all yesterday, all servers grey.*cries quietly to self*

    That was almost 3 hours ago, but alas, server status says they are still down.
  5. Can someone summarize what he wrote? The wall scares me too much to read it.

    I'm interested in knowing the answer to Electric Armor vs WP, though.

    Electric Armor doesn't like the taste of Devouring Earth. True story.
  6. That scene was used in the images of the Mecha Armor set aswell, I think.

    Still haven't seen any missions that use it since i23, where I thought I'd find it.

  7. But scrappers have better recharge. Sometimes better recharge is more fun

    But stalkers have a similar recharge to scrappers, so why don't we mix those two instead of the the brute?! Because scrappers aren't stealth characters! MADNESS!

    Whelp, guess we'll have to forget about this thread entirely in the coming future, like the possible threads that this one might unknowingly have copied, and leave everything uncombined as they are.

    Lets steal the blasters power to get stronger per each attack for 5-15seconds and make it a higher chance for crit after every attack. Momentum like a boss.
  8. It looks like you see Marauder still in Praetoria at the start of the i24 incarnate arc. So the arc probably explains everything regarding the praetorians going primal.

    What won't make sense for some is the Praetorians being tied to some of the new content in Bricks that you can play before level50.
  9. If you want to be an AoE machine, you can take only the AoE skills and taunt. With enough recharge I can DS,WS,AoD,DS,TS and repeat with no waits for cooldown. That chain will be 1 burst of momentum everytime, but occasionally the TS is a little late.

    During a respec, I took TS last, so in some ouro missions I don't have it, but my recharge is fast enough to use DS after any move, so I go DS,TS,DS,AoE,DS and repeat.

    On odd occasions DS starts recharging as soon as you start the attack, so you can immediately use a second DS with no pause for an instand 30% defence. You'll find spamming DS in some situations helps keep you alive.

    Keep in mind that I use elec, not fire, and usually need to use Power Sink every 2 combos. My slots are just obliteration in all attacks and have perma Hasten. So you might notice a few differences using this style depending on your slotting. It only uses 5/9 TW skills.
  10. The Belladona Vetrano arc and then the personal story of Cole tells you everything that happens up to the exact moment that that trial begins.

    Do you want the spoilers related to that too? EG, where Pendragon and Shadow Hunter came from. Since I remember returning and immediately playing a Magi trial and wondering where those two came from and who Dream Doctor was.
  11. It randomly happens to me too, just exit server and enter it again. That usually does the job for me. I guess sometimes the market fails to load correctly.

    It isn't VIP related, those sets aren't tied to VIP.

  13. I like it all. Super excited about seeing how the new T9 will look.

    As always, new arcs are what I look forward to the most. It's unfortunate red side didn't also get some level7-20 love.

    My VIP I was going to let lapse might be activated again sooner than planned(just for the VIP arc and Tech Knight set).
  14. I did it last night at +0x2 with no temps and no insp options set.

    There were 3EBs afaik, unless you mean that short part with Ward as an enemy, but I got so badly out numbered that I retreated behind the mansion to pick off the ones that kept chasing. Still died after fleeing but used the veteran self rez. The NPCs did all the work regarding actually fighting ward it seems, they all died still. Definitely not 4EBs at once.

    For the EBs, I just tanked them using my near 90% res, sucked out their endurance using Power Sink, making them even less a threat(awesome strategy if your recharge is high enough to be able to use it even when you don't need end). Then I whacked them all at the same time with my TW, until died almost in sync with each other after a long series of KDs.

    Autocomplete is evil, as it makes you miss out on the content that happens inside missions. If I were someone else, who needed help with it and wasn't in an Ouro version of it, I'd send @Surging Starfall a pst for help
  15. Statues? It looks like those people are just small standing near a normal sized(or slightly bigger than the tallest you can get) guy.

    But that did make me think that it would be cool if they made a statue that used doppleganger tech and phase tech so we can all see ourselves in a statue
  16. I noticed that on the Night Ward mission where you rescue spells to stop the ritual(part 3, mission 2 I think) the boss looked just like an angel instead of a Talon(light colors, nice looking, good hair, no animal features from what I noticed). They even thanked me after defeating them. I quickly brought up their info before the corpse vanished and it talked about how their voice was awesome and able to lead others easily, but the Talons twisted it into being used to gain more Talons instead. Source: summarized from my memory from earlier today.

    Angels must totally be related to Talons.

    If you search Alexandria in wiki, you'll see the small mention of her from that mission, but not the description. You'll also find another mission referenced the Library of Alexandria, which is probably unrelated.

    Also, on a not so serious note, the Rikti secretly knew that their gods were the battalion.
  17. Do you have Lore already unlocked?

    I don't know when you can, but at some point it lets you color your Lore powers, and you can view all Lore powers with their summons in the power customizing window, just like you can in character creator.

    Would lack of personality in an entire races speech patterns and loosing it's original appearance count as a hollowed shell of itself?
  19. Ability to enter a special room just like Ouro, but for incarnates, and it is open to both sides instead of being alignment limited, with exits to all city zones in the game, instead of most zones from one side. Then when a hero or villain tries to use the wrong exit, they get the same error message as they do in PD or similar. Then we can give it a work bench for those who still use them at incarnate level, and maybe another bench like in Vanguard for exclusive things, or perhaps just for an alternate way access the Astral/Empyrean shop without having to leave PD and make a team wait/wait till team ends to do. After that we could give it a market guy, who I don't need due to remote access.

    Access to an incarnate chat.
  20. I think the Confuse hybrid is good all the time for it's passive proc resistance. Not sure how percentages work though as we usually use magnitude.

    With AoE the active proc chance probably causes lots of chaos to mobs, depending on what it means by 'most damaging attacks'.

    When you go to use your locked characters after the 10 new ones become unlocked, it will ask if you want to open it with one of the free slots or using a global.

    So in other words, you have the option to make 10 entirely new ones or open whichever ones you like using the 10 empty slots. Open slots count as server slots, and will become locked to unlock a locked character.

    I actually prefer this method, since in the past I just made lots of random characters, took them for 1 or 2 DFBs then never used them again but didn't want to delete them. Now I get to do it all over again but have the option to use the ones I made in the past.

    VIP to Free.

    If you have VIP only costumes as the only costume/default costume for some characters, they won't lock the character.

    When you reactivate your VIP, 10 empty slots will open, instead of the ones they locked.

    I only have T4 Barrier for a useful Rez, and a skill to use right before my godmode crashes in rare situations that call for godmode.

    That's my only T4 Destiny for now. An extended godmode after your godmode ends is super useful for healing up and getting your toggles working after the crash.

    A double rez every 2 minutes is more appealing to me than a permanent Destiny.
  24. Ion Judgement has a chance for hold in the right tree, doesn't it? So we already have a hold, just a lame one that has chance on it.

    It's true that Judgement is weak, it's only really good for killing off large mobs, but in most cases, my TW tanker loses DPS if he stops to use it.
  25. Do you mean like having a sense of omnipresence? Where we can be wherever we want. We've become incarnated, beaten most of the game, so why should beings as mighty as us have to walk?

    Like a travel power of some sort to increase quality of life?

    Perhaps the power to change our own destiny(setting difficulty ourselves like x4+8). This would be handy since in DA, we have to push it up or they are too weak, then certain people would need to lower it again to leave. Worst of all is when you go to Ouro and your lower level missions are stronger than your comfort zone due to not being +1 and there aren't even any Fateweavers in Ouro to fix that.

    That is all I'll think of relating to quality of life. Now to escape before I get more ideas.
