Yeah, funny, but repeatable missions > streetsweeping. Unless they have something like the Cimerora Wall there, but I doubt they will. That wall was the devs' gift to Assault Rifle.

Well, the power stuff looks nice, I like the new costume stuff, a new lower level trial is awesome, and I like the team up teleporter stuff as well as the teleporter pads.
I just wish my first reaction upon seeing the new DA caps wasn't 'why are there that warring world place screencaps here?' (I actually do feel bad about it, especially since everyone else seems to like them)
I'm not really upset, though, since there'll be an echo of DA that I can visit for photoshoots and ghost story fun.

And the new statesman pose... CARE BARE STARE!

Negaduck: I see you found the crumb. I knew you'd never notice the huge flag.
Dark Astoria LOOKS awesome, but we'll see if it plays that way, too. I was not expecting the new iTrial, but it makes sense. Most new zones these days come with a TF, and an Incarnate zone makes sense to come up with an associated iTrial. At first I rolled my eyes at making this a co-op zone, but hearing it has separate content for heroes and villains is very good news indeed. I guess I can't blame the art team for wanting to do just one zone revamp, instead of one per side, and if there's a non-insignificant amount of content available to both sides, I can dig it.
The Olympian costume set looks very good, but also very limited in its scope. The characters featured only seem to have a handful of unique pieces, mixing those up with pre-existing sets. That said, what is new is very good, and I'm hoping we might finally be able to get a decent set of large shoulders for women.
I knew pretty much everything about the Assassin's Strike change... Other than that regular attacks have a CHANCE to apply Assassin's Focus. Now I want to know what that chance is and how it affects the guaranteed Assassin's Strike critical out of Hide. Either way, JUST having an Assassin's Strike that doesn't suck for 90% of my playtime is a major boon. The changes to Stalkers are awesome, and I cannot wait.

There is a power floating around Beta called "Summon Wolves" - it's listed as part of the "Beast Mastery" power set

I used to fiddle with my back feet music for a black onyx. My entire room absorbed every echo. The music was . . . thud like. The music was . . . thud like. I usually played such things as rough-neck and thug. Opaque melodies that would bug most people. Music from the other side of the fence.

To repeat what I said in another thread: Beast Mastery is still early in development and should be taken as such. In other words, not yet ready for primetime.
The set is expected to launch within the Issue 22 timeframe, not neccessarily with the launch of Issue 22.
Also, no we won't add ferrets, so stop typing it now...Yes you, I'm looking at you.

Might be a good idea to keep stuff like this on the I22 beta forums until it's further along in development.
