Well, that can't be right, because, I have it on good authority that we haven't had new costumes in 10 years and will never get any new ones, and the ones we will get, we'll have to mortgage our house to buy them because Noble Savage is just a shill playing mind games with us as part of a larger plot on the part of the Devs to destroy the game that's keeping their families fed.|

So, obviously, we'll never get new, free costumes again.

Not at all. Its more content (good), deepens the game's story (good) and should be soloable versus requiring a group (good).

I wonder how the new Hero and Villain arcs will tie in with the I19 theme? Like it's be unusal if they were just random additions to the game.

135 min. remaining on Part 1 of 4. But I'll post here when I have links. |

That being said? Why isn't the medicom system used with civvies? Be useful if an area has to be evacuated, right? And is Leviathan (whatever that is) a potential military target?
I'm very happy to hear that we are getting several new story arcs.
Considering the quality over the last few months, I'm really looking forward to them.
It's amazing how little of the I1 content I play anymore.

more tech stuff, but it makes sense in context.

The way I read it, we will know why in the story arc. Myabe its not used on normal humans because they are weaker and would die or something?|

Leviathan is buried under Sharkhead, and it's tied with the Corallax. We see it in a few story arcs as well as Operative Renault Strikeforce. I guess they are expanding on the lore, and I would also guess the arc will be at least 30+ to put after Op. Renault SF.
I'm liking i19 more and more.
Arc ID 104041 Attack of the Mini Phalanx Solo Friendly; Custom Characters; Comedy.
Arc ID 292449 The Shadow of Eihbon Solo Friendly; Canon Related; Magic.
If all this extra stuf is in Issue 19, then I think they will manage to WOW me, which hasn't happened in a while now. Looks awesome and I can't wait to watch the video.
Thanks James, that looks wicked.

That's very cool! I'd bet they'll be restricted to characters who originally started in Praetoria, which makes sense.

Since the video is taking so long to upload (and it's even worse because part 1 is just fluff and review, so you really have to wait for parts 2-4), here are the slides (after the fluffy review slides):

Kinda hard to see, but it seems our feedback on Apex's costume was received. Otherwise, looks like some great content and QoL stuff this issue!
So we're getting a total of THREE task forces this issue @_@

No, it's kinda like going through the progression for the Rikti arcs, now. From the character's perspective, the invasions haven't started yet-- from that perspective, the attacks have JUST started when they get the level range to take the task forces.

And now that the war has started, there's lots of scope for Tyrant to send his followers to Primal Earth to spy and carry out sabotage. EDIT: I think they might ned to rewrite the Paretorian exit missions a bit - it seems kinda pointless to be sent to try and stop a war that's already started now  |
If the Calvin Scott TF is a revamp, then I'm expecting some Praetoria references in it

The Calvin Scott TF is back? Very, very happy as I've been wanting this since Ouro came about. I'm hoping and assuming it's in Ouroboros, and next on my list is being able to visit old Faultline and/or old Rikti Crash Site, just for visiting.
But very happy with everything I've read. This is looking to be a fantastic issue!
Yes uber issue!! And guess what .... issue 20 is supposed to be the 'big' one...
The Scott story is probably most definitely in Ouro - midrange? wonder what level
*awaits impatiently for the videos* Thanks so much for the info btw...

So Alpha Slot is only highly recomended for Apex's TF? Should make a few people happy.
- plus plus, there are new 20-29 arcs for Praetorians to do in Paragon/Rogue Isles that continue the story of what they're doing there.
