New Incarnate slots

I'd love a toggle that would kick the travel powers into seriously high gear.

I also expect an AoE mez of some sort and a large +res/+def type of power. We did get a glimpse of that in the first mission of the arc that unlocks the Alpha slot.

That's actually a pretty cool idea, but I agree that we'd never get it.

Genesis: Launches a torpedo at the enemy, completly reforming the target into a small planet, that'll rez all nearby teammembers (though they may end up with pointy ears).

I was told that the Omega powerset was going to be a whole new powerset so sort of like epic pool powers atlevel 41 but a million times better


 

Posted

Hybrid: Something along the lines of +Res/+ToHit or +Def/Rech, things like that.
Genesis: Haven't a clue.
Mind: Mez
Vitae: Endurance/Health/Regen/Rec.
Omega: Tough call, but I'm hoping we get to make a custom power!

I would imagine that Miss Golden is speculating that there will be *personal* buffs for Vitae and Mind, whereas the ones you mentioned are AoE/team-oriented.

I concur with Miss Golden!

The Great Mother knows, we certainly need to have our Endurance boosted and it would be great to have better Regeneration and an AT-specific Hit Point percentage bonus (with Tanks/Scrappers getting the best percentages and Blasters getting the lowest).

my own theories...

Hybrid: Will allow for your character to buff a set of modifiers, effectively allowing tanks to debuff or team buff/heal like a defender, scrappers and stalkers gaining controller durations for their holds, Defenders gaining corruptor levels of damage, etc. etc.

Genesis: Will be weird, there's only one power in this slot specific to each AT, but the Genesis slot abilities will synergize or buff up your AT's inherent. (Like Defenders' Vigilance not just granting end discounts as Teammates fall or lose HP, but their buffs, debuffs, and heals become stronger)

Mind: AoE Control power, perhaps? While judgements have mez abilities, they're ultimately secondary effects and procs to the main thing. Whereas this could be one heavy hitting mez that locks down half of a room and could even synergize with Radial judgement mezzes.

Vitae: Possibly a set of strong defense toggles? Not as insane as Destiny's initial effects, but much longer lasting (of course) and could work well with the aforementioned Incarnate Slot.

Omega: I've always kind of imagined it might be something like this. >.>

Unfortunately "That's All" that's availaible at this time. While your response was better than "No Reply at All", I feel like you are "Taking it All Too Hard". Perhaps this is just a "Misunderstanding" and you are in a "Land of Confusion". More options will be available in the future. You may not be happy with the limited options given, but that's no reason to start "Throwing It All Away."

You know this thread is now depressing. It was posted 4/20(hehe) April 20 so that's April, May, June, July, August(won't count september it just started) 5 months and no new incarnate powers. Also they haven't even announced any for i21 either /wrists


Don't worry I still love ya devs but if i22 doesn't have some new incarnate powers I'm gonna have to take a break again.

I'm kinda the opposite. I'm fine with them just expanding the options in the current incarnate powers... really. Too much power already, not enough variety. Give more variants in each, and give us adventures that encourage us to switch out to the variants.

Actually, perhaps my vote shouldn't count. I'm more fine with them focusing on non-incarnate stuff. I think I might have 1 character with 1 or 2 tier 4's. I'd much rather play lowbies than this high-level stuff.

I am thinking another one of those powers will be a Signature character summon like say you can summon ghost widow or Drag'on in their full AV/Heroness for 5 minutes or so. which..would be awesome on an TF just to shove the full version of soul storm up the business end of whoever is in charge of the battalion.

Omega I am guessing is going to be a moment of glory style thing where you hard cap Attack, or become completely immune to all damage for 30 seconds or so.

It'd be "funny" if that would be true (immune to all damage for x seconds)....cause you know that Hamidon (or other 'special' AVs/Giant Monsters) would hurt you through it

In the August Producer's Letter, Second Measure said they were working on 2 new Incarnate Trials, and the way he worded it sounded like they were going to go live this year - I think there'll be at least oneslot released along with one of them - possibly as part of an I21.5 mini Issue

Devs already confirmed ages ago that Omega is certainly NOT the last slot.

I think we'll get another trial after underground, but the last slot and xp for it won't be activated as a reward option on the trial until next year.

At the very least, I think it is all but assured that we will have a Mother of Mercy Trial versus Malaise and Mother Mayhem in the nearish future...

Especially now that First Ward is building her up to be as big a monster as Tyrant - and there's still the possibility we'll need to fight and defeat the Hamidon too, to prove to the Well that we're superior to its current champion - the Underground Trial kinda sets that up as a possible future showdown.

There's no end to the Incarnate system - Positron has said that players will always be chasing the next big thing.

Unless they modded the Crystal Titan's stuff for that one mission they can make you immune to everything at once.

Hybrid: Wild guess... because the term is so ambiguous, but AoE hold?
Genesis: Additional power selection?
Mind: xMag status res /
Vitae: Modification of inherrent nerf caps (recover max, regen max, max hp, max def, etc.)
Omega: bonus enhancement slots ... ?
