Titan Weapons Leak?

StrykerX · 11-03-2011 02:45 AM

I was there when one of the Virtue server global channels discovered Titan Weapons were on the market. We were talking about it and then someone reported they couldn't find it and sure enough it was gone... then a minute later Zwillinger pops on and tells us he had been playing on his private account and saw us talking about it, so he logged onto his dev account and fixed it. So just remember that:

(A) The devs are everywhere. In fact, there's one right behind you!!!

and

(B) Zwillinger plays on Virtue! Or at least he listens to out chat channels. Wait... it could be just a case of (A).

Cascade, level 50 Blaster (NRG/NRG since before it was cool)
Mechmeister, level 50 Bots / Traps MM
FAR too many non-50 alts to name

Most likely both as I know he plays on Virtue.

Zwill plays on Virtue? I'm surprised I'm not banned yet

_Elektro_ · 11-03-2011 05:48 AM

I have to wonder how many times I've talked to dev's on their private accounts.

Sometimes I'm on teams doing.. unusual things... and someone who was just picked up for the group will start asking a lot of questions.... See NOW I'm paranoid.

I'd like to get one of the dev's (in private mode) on a Keyes run. Ugh. (I know they're 'fixing' it)

I feel like I've been waiting for Titan Weapons too long. Why can't I get leaked powers?!?!?!

Suggestion for next power set: Leaked Powers (You don't know what you're going to get but by checking the online store, you can buy Leaked Powers and get some half finished set)

I would have liked to been a fly on the wall with the dev boss chewing out some buttocks after realizing there are some playing TW toons now.

Slightly off topic, but does anyone have info on the +def #'s for defensive strike? I tried to find it in other threads and failed, so I'm hoping one of the few who already have it can tell me.

Thanks!

Given that stalkers are not getting TW, just because it is unstealthy, why are sets like stone allowed a back flip attack?

Hey Mezegis,

All I know is that it adds to Smashing and Melee. I would imagine numbers similar to Parry and Divine Avalanche? Maybe a bit smaller, considering Tanks get it. Would make a Resistance Tank using it a bit Overpowered, would it not?

Meh <---- is how I feel about another melee set.

Stop being so aggressive. You are only hurting your crusade by treating others with such anger.

Not really, they gave MA a +10% def to all power, so it wouldn't surprise me at all if they kept it at Parry/DA levels. Either way, it seems that MA would be better for maintaining soft-cap on a lot of types than TW, which is sad, because TW looks hawt!

BigBlackAfrica · 11-03-2011 07:16 AM

The numbers I've seen are 15% S&L Def for Tanks and 11.25% for Brutes and Scrappers.

Baltoro · 11-03-2011 07:46 AM

I heard it was only Smashing and Melee. Can anyone confirm this ingame with [Defensive Strike]? Also, I had no idea Martial Arts gave a 10% Defense to all? It doesn't stack though. But still, wow that's cool. I'm pretty torn now. I really wanted my Titan Weapons/Elec Tanker. Think maybe I'll go MA/Invuln and roll my TW/Elec as a Scrapper..

BrandX · 11-03-2011 08:14 AM

So, did Zwill stop the player from using TW? Delete their character? They keep the character but can't make any new ones? I'm so curious now!

Which one?

Ninjitsu port to Scrappers (which we know is happening)
TW to stalkers (which isn't happening).

Honestly, I have no cause left as I rerolled my other stalkers to scrappers and only have my KM/EA left.
And that one is on the Strip/Gut list.

the +10% def on that is to all except psi, non enhanceable and nonstackable with itself, but it is perma out of the box

with something like shield paired with that you could still softcap on SOs only

Yes, and amazingly useful when you want to softcap a resistance set. CJ, Weave, Maneuvers, Storm Kicks +def, StP +3%def IO, and a few Kin Com/Rea Arm sets and you have S/L def capped on anything.

Sorry about the confusion. I'm so used to S&L going together that I almost automatically group them now. I don't have access to the game at work but I'm pretty sure it's Melee and Smashing.

I'm not sure, exactly.. But I think the person is still playing on their TW character. I added one character to my friends list, and the character is still being played.

Nope, he just warned him that the version currently on Live is unfinished and therefore may be a bit buggy.

As for Defensive Strike, I believe it's identical to Parry except Melee / Smashing instead of Melee / Lethal. Well, it's also an AoE but you only get the defense if it hits the guy you are actually targeting... they had to do it that way to allow it to stack without giving you defense for every target hit.

If that's the case, they should just release it for everyone now >_>;;

I'm willing to go with a buggy version, to start playing it now.

Close, but not an exact copy :3

I knew it wouldn't be the same because Tanks get it :P Wouldn't be fair!
