I'll have to check out the new zone to see if I like it. Some of the mobs look more weird and creepy than I like, but they might just be randomly about in a few screenshots.
Grav and Stalker changes should be fun. Nothing on anything more for Kheldians. 
Apparently their formshift changes have gone the way of PVP and base changes. I hope not, but that's generally what seems to happen when the devs don't follow something up soonish.
Kind of wish the devs had added a new TF than a new trial (level could be based off the leader incarnate level or something, too), and a trial with 57s to boot. 
Noob incarnates are stuck with three trials to run, though the new missions should help some, at least.

More interested in the Dark control / dark 2ndary. Don't know when/if I'll make another Dom, so I can't really speak for that. But I already have new things I want to start on soon :S
I'm not sure if they are making Stalkers on par with scrappers more, or better overall, depending on powersets. Hopefully we'll see less stealth-only players and some more actual strategy being used.
I've already forgotten about most of you

From the one picture, the crab-like things look straight out of HL2 IIRC.
Still no work on the shard into a Co-op for some reason. New Base TP = fantastic. I just started playing with combining 3 of them on top of each other and it looks fine, but a PITA to get each one to TP where you want. And finally the team up TP working inside missions; now I can stop wasting so much damn time standing around and doing nothing while waiting.

Yeah, I'm really happy about the team up teleporter working from anywhere. Biggest annoyance for me is waiting on leagues to get enough people... I only have so much time to play and don't want to waste it standing around Pocket D.|

Not sure if I'll be making more Stalkers even with the changes. I like my one enough, and I play him when I feel in a Stalker mood. I play him just like my Scrappers, but I for some reason have more Scrappers. Not sure why. I do like the changes and will enjoy them when I am on my Nin/Nin, though.

Stalkers are the one archetype I've never been able to play past the very earliest levels. The whole stealth focused play style is something that's just never clicked with me (in any MMO.) But Assassin's Focus is such a huge buff to stalkers that I'll probably give one a good go.

For me I like the new Stalker changes, my Stalker is a Katana/regen, I do play her like a scrapper but dies alot cause such low HP's even with DP on (an extra 200 HP's while on) now I have a chance to survive. Dusted her off to get her incarnate slots open for when the update drops. The new DA does look better now, can see everthing now no fog yay.

Probably would help not to think of them as "stealth-focused." I usually find it better to see them as two-dimensional Scrappers. Scrappers are pretty much one thing (heck, Brutes often are the same), and Stalkers have a greater tactical capability that can actually make them more interesting to play.|

Not sure what my next Stalker will be... maybe wait for Staff Weapons, though I was hoping to use a Tanker for that. Might try KM again, since that is a fun set. Just wish we would get a new defense set (I don't like using the same set twice... EM is the most I've done it with Blasters)... we've been all attack or control sets for a long bit.

Stalker. Buffs.
Oh, and something about Dark Astoria being revamped into a co-op lvl 50 zone with Incarnate rewards... obviously not as important as the Stalker Buffs!
