Nobody ever said that they'd extend the levels at which the Alpha Slot functions. As far as I know, even when i20 goes live, the Alpha Slot will still cease to function below level 45. Ergo, no level shift on Dr Q. Nobody except you is talking about shards on that TF.

My first Dr Q was about 11 hours long. 13 if you count the downtime for THREE different meal breaks.

Interestingly, I don't know if there's any confirmation on this, if the Shadow Shard TF's lack villainside equivalents, would they be exempt from being the WST?


to TO THE END!
Villains are those who dedicate their lives to causing mayhem. Villians are people from the planet Villia!

Thus far that seems to be the case.

So far all the WSTs have either been TFs that have equivalents on both sides, or they're co-op. And it looks like that trend is going to continue for March.

The original post by PuceNonagon mentioned Dr. Q and the shards reward schedule.

reialla mentioned how at 44 you're not getting Alpha slot benefits.

However, one of the benefits of the Alphs slot is getting shard drops.

This is where the confusion began.

So, yes indeed, shards were part of the discussion, Roderick ( ). But in the ambiguous language of 'Alpha slot benefits' the topic got muddled between the Universal Enhancement power of a slotted Alpha Slot and the benefits of simply having an Alpha Slot unlocked.

But to make clear and I concur: at Level 44, your Alpha Slot enhancements won't be working, but, if you have the Alpha Slot unlocked, you will get Shards and any special Incarnate rewards that may be part of Dr. Q being the WST.

Hmm, I don't like the fact we have a hero only and villain only week.

Am I misunderstanding you, or do you think that there is a week where heroes have no WST and a week where villains have no WST? All the weeks that list TWO - one is hero and one is villain. All the weeks that list ONE - those are all co-op (i.e. heroes and villains teaming).
