I think the idea is to convince the devs 1) How bad an idea it is to gate certain pieces (auras, emotes etc) and 2) that the prices shouldn't be anyhwere near the current ones in the slightest.

It's still feedback

If you create a level 1 on the beta server it'll auto level to 50 as soon as you log it in. You'll end up with a good bit on influence as well (130m i think I had on my auto50) so as soon as you can pick up an Oportal (ask someone to drop one for you), you can hit Oroborous and buy the merits you need to unlock all this stuff for 1inf a piece.


(*Note that unlocking is tedious as it's all done 1 at a time, and there's a timer on the purchase. Then you get a system email, and there's ANOTHER timer on claiming those. Sure the timers are only about 5 seconds, but it's just slow enough to not really serve a purpose other than to piss me off.)

Here's some quick screenshots form Beta:



Plain Ascension set, primary color white, secondary blue. The shoulderpads have a choice of plain or decorated. The bits that are grayish/black will always be grayish/black.

1. Drop Ouroboros portal, go to Ouro.

2. Find the two new vendors, they're behind the big blue guy.

3. Get a whole bunch of Empyrean Merits at 1 inf (note: THIS IS NOT HOW IT WILL ACTUALLY WORK WHEN THIS GOES LIVE)

4. Find the costume piece you want. Unlock it.

5. Check your ingame e-mail. (There will be a flashing red "Email" link on your chat window.)

6. Open the email with the costume piece unlock. Click on the "claim" button. You can delete the email later.

7. Repeat steps 4-6 for every piece you want.

8. Go to the tailor. You can now access the new pieces in the appropriate tabs.

Once you've unlocked a piece, you can use it on any level 50 on that account, but you have to claim it through email first.

Is there a way to transfer toons, because I don't have to obo portal

Just ask someone to drop an oro portal, if noone is around you have to go to the forums go to development and there is a thread there that says character copy tool and there you will find a way to copy toons.


Cancel the kitchen scraps for widows and lepers, no more merciful beheadings and call off christmas!

User Interface
  • The Email UI has been split into separate Inbox, Certification, and Voucher tabs.
  • Removed the “From” column from the Certification and Voucher display.
  • Certification and Voucher display names will now simply be the name of the item instead of "Certification:" and "Voucher:"
  • Added a Claim All Certifications button to the new Certification tab. This will automatically iterate through and claim all your valid certifications on a given character.
  • Certifications or Vouchers which are claimed are now automatically removed from the list.
  • Certifications or Vouchers which cannot be claimed on the current character will not appear in the list by default and will not cause the email notification to appear. (Note this means if you buy a reward on a character which cannot claim it you will not see it appear in the UI by default.)
Astral and Empyrean Merit Vendors:
  • Alpha Slot, Cape, and Aura Unlock Vouchers are now 5 Astrals apiece.
  • Chest Emblems are now all 1 Astral apiece.
  • Ascension Armor pieces are all now 10 Astrals or 3 Empyreans apiece.
  • Ascension Radiance Armor pieces are all now 6 Empyreans apiece.
  • Emotes are now all 10 Astrals or 2 Empyreans apiece.
  • Costume Change Emotes are now all 3 Empyreans apiece.
  • Auras are now all 10 Astrals or 2 Empyreans apiece.
  • Path Auras are now all 3 Empyreans apiece.
  • The Incarnate Thread Voucher for 1 Astral now grants 4 Threads when claimed.
  • The Incarnate Thread Voucher for 1 Empyrean now grants 18 Threads when claimed.

The next beta build will contain this and other changes in regards to feedback and bugs discovered in other areas, but I wanted to make sure you all were aware of these pending changes such that you could base your feedback bearing this in mind.

Thanks again to everyone for participating in the beta,
Your bud in the high-powered armor,
Black Scorpion

Anybody else care to try their hand at Ascending their character(s)?

first one is nothing too fancy, just replaced the Vanguard Shoulder, Belt and Chest Detail w/ Ascension Aura. Second one just changed everything the Ascension stuff could go into

I find it very fascinating that in this thread the pieces actually appear to be used as the devs intended as augmentations to existing costumes. When I first saw them I thought, "right...I'm just supposed to stick these hulking pieces on my costume," but folks seem to be using them to remarkably good effect to upgrade their costumes. So I think I have to commend the devs on designing pieces that serve that purpose.

Plus seeing all these designs the boots don't look as bad as I thought they were at first...

Post from Positron for reference.

Quote:
The Ascension Armor is NOT some random costume set that we locked into the Incarnate System. Every step of its design was under the assumption of “only available through the Incarnate System, and only to level 50’s.” David Nakayama knew this before he ever started working on the armor, in fact it was a driving motivation in the concept art he delivered. He specifically made something that could be used in pieces to augment your character’s existing costume to give it the “I’m an Incarnate” flair.

I really need to stop changing Mystic Fortune's costume.. he's starting to give me dirty looks.



I tried the Ascension chest detail too but it just made the outfit feel too "crowded"..
