Oh, Sister Psyche was supposed to be in that mission? Oops. Didn't really notice, but that would've been handy.

This is a significant improvement of value. I'm still not sure they're worth buying, given how frequently they drop in-game and how cheaply they can be purchased by not-my-actual-money, even when there's a streak of bad luck, but it's a step in the right direction, and at least means that the ones that drop from packs (they're getting the same treatment...right?) will no longer be considered just a few extra delete-clicks. Probably.

Another random question, is there a Team-Break Free inspiration? |

And if so, wouldn't stacking these mean that Clarion would no longer be as required in the Underground Trial?
This change does offer some interesting potential.
The stealth addition of the "reward" plinky sound on EVERY single notification in trials is EXTREMELY annoying. I listen and think I'm getting all sorts of cool loot and find "power terminal activated, PLINK!" "Power cell has been used, PLINK!", "Antimatter Appears! PLINK!". It's annoying and tiring after the first 2 minutes.

If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

Clarion is extremely beneficial in the MoM trial, as well as the UG, seeing as how Olympian Guards can stun Tanks. Just saying, it's only 5 mins whereas Clarion is perma, and you are sadly mistaken if you think that Avatar fight is the only place you need it.

I was simply asking if a change like this would give us more options in team building, instead of what my experience has been in the UG trial where everything stops "till we have 4 people with tier 4 Clarions or else we're not starting this."|

And a lot can be done in five minutes. Most successful UG trials I've been on took down the Avatar in less than that.

I second this.

Something I've noticed that seems to be "missing" from the patch notes: you no longer use up Patrol XP when you're running an XP Booster temp power. It just gets pushed off, the same way it does in a double XP weekend. It didn't used to do that. It's annoying. :/
Missing from the patch notes:
Inviting to a league in progress now works.
Triumph: White Succubus: 50 Ill/Emp/PF Snow Globe: 50 Ice/FF/Ice Strobe: 50 PB Shi Otomi: 50 Ninja/Ninjistu/GW Stalker My other characters
The Fire and Ice set looks great, but some of the weapon power sets still got passed over. Claws and bows has now gotten passed over for T9VIP weapons twice. Come on devs, you can do better than that. Give us some T9VIP claws and bows
