flipside

Agreed it's a great power, but the visual animation for it is severely underwhelming in my opinion. On my sole Incarnate path character I went to the tier 4 for Cryonic for thematic reasons, but I also built up to tier 3 for Pyronic just because it looks a lot more awesome, to me at least.

That may be the case, my apologies for the misinformation.

2 + 2 can equal 5 for large values of 2.

I was there for this one too. I'm not chalking that one into my failed attempts column, but man was that frustrating.

Ok, off topic a second, and I know I'll appear like a goober for not knowing this, but what does "scooped" mean? I see it used a lot here but never seen it before.

Agreed. Masterminds and Controllers would probably beat others out tonight. Just cast them, set them to aggressive and go make a sandwich. Or, in tonights case, probably make a cake or build a garden.

I am curious to see what the screen will look like when the server actually melts before our eyes.

My plans exactly. Hoping an AE mission will suffice.

I initially agreed on the idea of time proration, but then did the math. Here's how it works out...

In example for May, there are 31 days or 744 hours. If you take your monthly sub of $15 and divide that out, that's ~$0.02 per hour, USD. So, for todays particular downtime you are looking for an $0.08 proration to your sub. Across the entire month of May with all the varied large downtimes we've had, we might be looking at a $1 proration.

Honestly for me, the playtime is more important than that actual amount of money. I think May has also been an abnormal month in terms of downtimes.

I think maybe you misunderstood what I was saying. What I was trying to say was that I disagreed that we needed the content in a state which required specialized teams to complete, and that I agree with the change so that non-optimized teams can complete now.

I cited MoApex and MoTin as examples of "the hardest content in the game" being completed with non-optimized teams. I didn't mean to infer that you needed specialized teams to complete the iTrials.

I can't say I agree with this statement. Unoptimized teams have been completing Mo* runs for Apex and Tin Mage forever now. Up until the iTrials, they were supposedly the hardest game content. It didn't require a specialized team to complete those.

Awesome, thank you.

And yes, I also always use the patch notes link on the main website. If they aren't there, I don't consider them official.

Agreed. Almost a day late on these. That's pretty sad.
