one way to incarnate WHY!!!!!

I am disgusted with it already did 8 of my 40 50s to incarnate availiable.

I cant stand it anymore its horrible i am so sick of it now i cant stand it.

I now worry what will happen to the ones i dont make incarnate when ther is a teir 3,4,5,6,7 etc...

Holy redheaded step child.

I think that one way to incarnate and the forced tfs are a bust. It was ok for one or two or three toons but I got toons on severs that are dead so i only did the ones like most.


But what about the ones i play less on slow servers? They are done? should i respec now? pull off the good stuff?


i DONT THINK FARMING IS THE ANSWERE!!!

perhaps a shard reward should be at the end of an arc?
perhaps a shard shoudl drop when we lvl
perhaps a shard drop should occur when we get a pvp kill 1/10 /125 1/100 or 1/200
perhaps a shard should drop when we kill a gm or finish the other tfs posi,numina etc...


this is killing me this nonstop itfs,lrsf,stf,lgsf etc.....



I can be the only one!!!

They do drop in pvp
They drop from any level 50+ enemies.

I think you mean I can't be the only one.

None of the TFs are forced.

Maybe worry about it a bit less, and not rush it?

You have 40 level 50's. Do you even play them all? Perhaps, you can work on them at a slower pace and just have fun.

I have 28/29 level 50's and only one incarnate, and really, not worring about the others since I don't play them often (will likely get the 2nd with my new Corr)

Eh. I was satisfied with being finished at 50. But nooooooo...so many people kept pressing for more, specfically not just content but more stuff to do to advance your 50, stuff that would take a while so they could keep playing abd getting tangible rewards for their 50, not just influence and recipes.

So here we are. It is, by design, supposed to take a long time. That's the only reason it was worthwhile developing; if everyone finished it in the first few days after release, it would be pointless.

My play style has not changed with Incarnates and I already have one toon with an uncommon boost. If the focus of your playing is for shards... I think it tends to frustrate you. My focus when I play this game is... to have fun. Drops of any kind are simply a bonus. I have approximately 12 50s all of whom are purp/iod out... no it wasn't NOW... but it happened

Just stop.. and smell the blinking roses

If the devs decided to give everyone solid gold bricks the OP would be here complaining that they didn't give him a wheelbarrow to carry them in.

It's all a plot! I have leaked emails from the devs offices where they talk about how much they hate you, and you alone Greystar, so they spend about 90% of the time thinking up ways to mess with you, and the onther 10% of their time is spent wearing jeggings, and smearing nutella on their elbows.

And how exactly is this going to work?

You can't even GET shards until you are level 50 and have run the arc. If you are never going to level again, getting a shard when you level is really pointless.

Unless you're proposing a level cap raise, in which case I have to say HELL NO.

Why? Did you worry this way about getting all 40 characters I/O'ed out with all your accolade powers? If not, incarnate is not much different. You can even start the arc and log into each character every few days to auto complete the mission they are on to complete the arc. No need to even run it on all characters.

TF's are not required. Just complete the arc and run missions as normal. The shards will come at a decent rate.

Not sure why you would bother...

Quote:

Agreed


Quote:

Granted! By the time you have completed an arc a few shard will have dropped already.

Quote:

Granted! But your level 50 and there are no more levels to achieve

Quote:

Granted! Shards drop in PvP!

Quote:

Thought we wanted to avoid TF's?

If you don't like the TF's they are not required. Just do regular arcs, Tip missions ect and shards will come naturally.

I'm running solo tip/paper mishes on my Bane set at 0/8 and I'm averaging 2 shard drops per mish.

I only get to run tf's/raids on the weekends and I'm not having any problems.I just wish we could sell them and the other salvage on the market.....

Which is why I've had the particular poster on ignore for quite some time. Glad to know that ignoring was justified one more time....

On my main server I have 30 50's. I've decided to work 12 through all the incarnate "lvls" as they come up, and so far 5 already have their tier 2 alphas slotted.

End game is what I've been waiting for... something to actually do :P This is also on the dead server you were referring to.

First off. Take your Ritalin Garth!

Seriously, relax a bit.

You're approximately 8 days out from the drop of the Issue.

You have people with 3, 4, 5, and 6 years worth of play time and SERVERS FULL OF 50's with something new to do.

And you're one of them. So you're pounding hard on these new things to do. Because you want the nice stuff too.

It's not wrong, or bad or ab(bie?)normal. But it's not "forced" either.

Also note you're only dealing with the first HALF of a new 10-tier system.

Take it GRADUALLY. Trying to cram all your 50's into Incarnate in a 1-2 week period is GOING to lead to burnout. Start with the ones you actually play regularly. Then get the other ones when you have a few "slow" moments with the game.

As such, it'll be less job-ish.

Quote:

Again, the TFs are NOT forced. You can mish along on L50 toons and still pick up everything you need to craft Incarnate boosts.


Quote:

See above.


Quote:

Again, take ye olde chill pill. Flipping out about this accomplishes nothing but getting froth all over everyone.

Quote:

That's essentially what a TF is. An arc. Moreover, you get random shard drops for killing L50 enemies. Both in TFs and in regular play. You even get them during Rikti and Zombie raids.

Quote:
perhaps a shard shoudl drop when we lvl
That'd be a neat trick for a 50.

Again, this is level-gated content. You HAVE to be 50 to start the arc.

Quote:

Shards do drop randomly when you kill L50+ enemies.

Quote:

Fairly certain you can get drops against GM's, as they're non-level enemies like Invasion Rikti and Zombies. Again, all RNG-influenced of course.

As for Posi and non-50 TFs. The point of the Incarnate system was to push you to the harder content in the game.


Quote:

Then don't do it. Slow down a bit and alt again for a while.

Come back to it when you're ready.

I'm pretty sure decapitating other players is against the EULA. Or at least, it's frowned upon by the forum moderators.

On the other hand, defenestration is perfectly fine.

OK, if you're trolling, I give it a 7/10. You got a few bites.

Would be nice if there were information posted somewhere that told us about all the ways to get shards, which are more than just the TFs... That would be nice.

Um... Fight mobs that are 50+. Radio missions, Tip missions, TF's, SF's Trials, or regular mission arcs where the mobs are 50+.

Let me see. For the first week after I19, I was running my 5-a-day Tip missions and didn't get a single drop. Yesterday I realise I was still running on -1/x1 from ages ago. I switched to 1/x1 and BAM! I get 4 shards in my next few Tips.

Today however I hit the jackpot. 1 Mothership raid. 3 teams. 4 shards. 500+ Vanguard merits. I've now got my common boost slotted after effectively 2 days.

...surprisingly light on recipie drops during the raid though.
