So umm, yeah, I'm back. A lot of you don't know me. You should. I'm awesome (I started the Infinity Server Census over 5 years ago).

So, tell me who you new people are!

Also, hi Moses! /wave

Welcome back. Dunno how long you've been gone, but the last two years have seen a LOT of changes. Personally, I think the Inherent Fitness pool is the biggest (positive) change, but being able to turn my heroes into villains and vice versa is pretty awesome too.

Pretty sure I posted an entry in the Infinity Census, but in case you missed it, I'm Kavik.

Howdy.

I've been gone for 4 years. I saw the inherent fitness pool, means I only have about 40 builds to respec.......

Whats the big draw now? When i left it was grinding ITF/STF/LGTF as fast as possible.

Well you said for new people to say Hi but like that would stop meh.

WB Shu

I am not real familiar with what was new when you previously left but will take a few guesses at what has happened since then. From all reports PvP was gutted. They added new IOs to the game including PvP dropped ones. As our servers wolfen said, they added fitness for all. Unless feeling the immediate need to respec it into builds, I would suggest waiting until 21 hits since its launch will allow players to take a tier 3 travel pool power at lvl 4. Then again this may not affect any of your builds =shrugs=. Going Rogue hit last year which introduced being able to change sides as well as take a middle alignment allowing one to take part in the majority of content on both sides. As far as the content that most people chase these days..Still the lvl 50 TFs with ITF being the most run as well as anything associated with the Incarnate content like the current WSTs (Weekly Strike Target) and the iTrials (sans Keyes). Then there is also AE (Architect Entertainment) but that's a long story for others to fill ya on, since I was gone during the implementation of it myself. That's most of what I can think of off the top of my head but I am sure others like Mesmer could fill in the blanks considering they didn't take a hiatus from the game like you and I did.

Here is hoping that your post is part of oncoming trend of people returning in the next few months. Now that your back, maybe it's time to update your location to something like being a contractor for Infinity ;-).

Maybe you can help me rebuild these forums.


Thanks for eight fun years, Paragon.

Yeah, the ITF grind has *mostly* been replaced with the incarnate trial grind.

and you didn't say hey IB? Shame on you. Thanks for that update Nova, I know a little bit about AE, but wan't too interested in it for the most part. I heard PvP was dead on Infinity, but I can change that, like I did last time :P

Heya Mes!!!!!

Heya Mes!!!!!
If you're here to take back PvP, I'm behind you 100.001 percent! (I have a proc that gets me a tiny bit above cap)

It's true that Incarnate Trials are the content most 50s shoot for, since we can effectively gain new powers by getting Incarnate xp, and those trials have some funky badges associated with them. But of course, we'll be seeing i21 hit TOMORROW, so expect even more changes, since Galaxy City will be going away, First Ward co-op zone will be coming, Veteran Rewards are getting replaced with Paragon Rewards (that you buy w/ Paragon Tokens, new game money called Paragon Points let you by temp powers, costume slots, power set access, etc. And yes, travel power pools change tomorrow, with Tier 3 powers available lvl 4... AND new Tier 5 powers added to the pools.
