Also: Six years of casual play begins to look an awful lot like one year of hardcore play.
Meh, not too excited, but not disappointed either. More badges are good. And free stuff is free.

I also like that Vet rewards are continuing.

69 is nice, nothing special...72 is nice...1 more free slot, hooray 
And yes please clarify, 5% makes a 10% inspiration 15% or 11%?

I got this one right.
There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan. If you're Unleashed, I'm dumps. I'll try and get registered on the Titan Forums as well. Peace, and thanks for the best nine years anyone could ever ask for.
Nice. Thanks! 
If it's a genuine badge, what badges aren't genuine? Or do you mean this is a real, physical badge that you'll mail to us?

I have never been one to doubt the equity of veteran badges, but I am starting to when I see that whole 5% added efficacy business. I hope it isn't a 5% boost overall as that would be more than a little unbalanced. Please clarify this!
Words to the wise aren't necessary- it's the stupid ones that need them.

All that means is that when a pop a big blue, for example, you get 55% of your end back instead of 50% - it's not really a game changer |

With a big blue, that isn't a big deal. With purple and orange inspirations, I see that being a bit different. 5% added defense is a considerable boost; even if it is just temporary.

It's also disabled in PVP, so it doesn't really matter. I doubt the NPCs are going to petition the devs complaining that veterans whollop them extra hard when using inspirations. |

It doesn't happen in PvP, so I don't see the big deal.

What, 38% defense for 60 seconds instead of 33% for 60 seconds? An outrage for sure |

Somehow I doubt it's an additive 5% for defense and resistance inspirations. That's equivalent or better to running weave on anything but a tank. A 5% increase is noticeable - especially the closer you get to the 45%.
Now the real question is how are breakfrees going to be 5% more effective?
Nice. Although I feel a little jipped on the 69 month badge.
For some reason I feel as though it should have been a reward that both benefits me and you at the same time...
