    It is very likely I did miss this as there are quite a few pages for this thread...I appreciate you informing me that this has been addressed
  2. After having read the first ten pages on this I have determined that if you are doing a build where you are counting on a proc (or multiple) as part of that build then you are doing it wrong. They are inherently unreliable and should NEVER be counted on in a build. They a a bonus, an "Oh that's nice" but to count on it happening just makes no since. Does that mean that I don't use them...nope, I use them a lot (every tank I have has the proc for psi damage in taunt)but I don't count on them to go off when I use them.

    I don't mind procs being adjusted in a sensible way which is easy to calculate but this is totally the opposite of that. How are we supposed to know if a proc is a good purchase for a power now, too many new variables have been introduced into the formula.
    I think that if you are taking a power based on the procs you can put in it then you are play the game wrong. You should be building around the powers you have and not the procs you want.
  4. I believe they should leave the system as it cureently stands alone and unmolested. If you want the PPM enhancements then spend the points for them. If not and the percent works for your build then get those as drops or from the BM/Went. Either way the system isn't currently broken and trying to fix something that isn't broken just might break it.

    I have to say that I never liked the PPM system to begin with and seeing that the entire proc sytem is going to this is a bad idea. I will admit that in some case it is an improvement over the current % system but those are few and far between.

    This will also have a negative effect on those run Radiation, Kinetics or any other power that speeds up recharge of skills. In a league when you have some that want the recharge and others that don't and these are now AoE. Someone(s) aren't going to be happy with the outcome.

    Clearly this has wide reaching implications and will have to be further examined when beta opens.
  5. If it is confined to Freedumb and not having any toons on freedumb or the financial where with all to transfer to freedumb and then back, this will suck. I will just use this oppertunity to push other toons to the 50

    I just don't want to be in a realm populates only be rikti monkeys...death by poo gas is not on my to do list
  7. I wonder if they will be awarding (to those who can use or need it) incarnate XP for these praetorian invasions or threads and merits. Some of us aren't able to get into Lambda's and BAF's due to either server load (lack of) or schedule. By granting incarnate xp this way would very considerate of the Devs.
