COMBINED

Alignment Change

  • Fixed an issue where Villains and Rogues could retain active status on some Broker contacts when changing alignment.

Character Creator/Tailor
  • An unintended secondary color option has been removed from the Quilted Jacket sleeves.


Pocket D Valentine Costume
  • Fixed strapped heels so that when purchased from the store they are correctly granted to the user. Characters who previously bought the casual dress shirt and were granted access to the strapped heels will no longer have access to the heels until purchased. Characters who purchased the strapped heels and did not get access to them will now have access to them.
  • The Metallic Dress Top should no longer show a regular upper arm when worn with Robotic Arm 3
  • Fixed some clipping with the leather studded belt on huge models.
  • The casual shirt should no longer clip through the abdomen on male body types.
  • Female baggy jeans should have less clipping with many types of belts
  • Casual dress shirt sleeves should no longer appear see-through during hands on hip idle animation.
  • A visible seam has been cleaned up on the right side of the huge casual dress shirt collar.
  • Chest and sleeves of casual dress shirt have been cleaned up for huge models.

Fire and Ice
  • Phoenix wings are now consistently attached in male, female and huge body types.
  • The female version of the left Fire and Ice - Elemental Dual Blade sword now fits properly in the left hand.

POWERS

General
  • Prevented a bug which allowed infinite numbers of non-combat pets from being summoned.
  • Removed a misaligned hasten effect from the Coyote Travel Power.
  • Fixed some clipping issues with Flying Carpet and High Collar Capes.

Ninja Run
  • Jumping to the left while a Titan Weapon is drawn should no longer appear to stab your character.

Enhancements
  • Fixed a bug that would revent the attuned version of Armageddon: Damage/Endurance to be slottable if Armageddon: Chance for Fire damage is slotted.
  • Fixed a bug that would cause Defender's Bastion: Recharge/Chance for Minor PBAoE Heal and Superior Defender's Bastion: Recharge/Chance for Minor PBAoE heal to not trigger reliably on nearby allies.
  • Brute's Fury: +Recharge/+Chance for +Fury - Fixed a bug that granted +Fury per target hit instead of per activation of the power.


ZONES

Rikti War Zone
  • Covered up a few holes in the ground with some catwalk ground pieces.

Neutropolis
  • The Great Escape - Resolved an issue that caused some of the critters in this encounter to spawn at inappropriate levels based on the participating players.

How does one obtain an attuned Armageddon?
Is this a pre-emptive patch note and there are plans to sell purples in the store sometime soon or something?

Was just about to mention this myself. Wasn't there a big enough stink about selling rare sets?

Yeah, that doesn't sound like a patch note that should've made it to the forums...

They've made all the attuned versions of the purples -- you just cannot see them in the store

Been wondering when they plan on selling them or making it where you can earn them in the game.

Given that Purples already more or less work the same way as attuned enhancements, I'm not entirely sure what the point of making them earnable in-game would be.

Since there's ATO fixes, but no word about Scrapper's +Crit, I assume that the bug that was reported on beta got fixed before this patch?

If I were to place a bet I would say that they are going to have them function like ato's where there will be normal Rare-io valued enhancement and the catalyst version



D: Toss me a hai @DarkNat My Fify glory: Renzer Dark/Dark Corr., Renzro Dark/Dark Def., Amartasu Dark/Dark Scrap.Less important ones: Fire/Fire Blaster,Ice/Ice Blaster,Ele/Ele Brute, Mind/Storm Troll,Fire/Kin Corr.,Bots/FF MM., DB/Regen Scrap.

Well I no you can use Enhancements booster on them, so maybe that what they talking about and you should be able to sell them at lvl 50+5.

Only thing I can think of is possibly slottable below 50. That or for people who would rather spend points than influence.

Either way I'm surprised this note made it in, since there's no reason to believe they've made a decision on whether or not to offer attuned versions of the purple sets.

Yeah even if it's just ONE set you can slot I'd buy it. Imagine if they DO end up selling these things and they let you BUY AND SLOT 5?!



*nearly pees on self*

(I am betting if these do become reality they will be hella expensive . . . and will cause MASSIVE gnashing of teeth on the forums! )

Where is my TP bug fix?

http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=284059

It's bad enough that i got TP's from across the map with the Incarnate TP, while tanking Anti Matter in Keyes. Imagine the waste of time when i was leading Desdamona through the Underground Trial's bomb section and someone thought i'd be a good idea to TP me, making me backtrack and grab her again.

C'mon, this NEEDS to get fixed ASAP!

Boo. I'm not sure exactly what this bug was, but what was it hurting?

So that's why I saw that OSHA inspector chewing out Lady Grey the other week.

If this "attuned 'geddon" thing means that I will soon be able to buy purples with Paragon Points, I say bring it on.

Well, that explains why my fury meter kept capping out effortlessly.

Oh well.

Options, General "Prompt Team Teleport"? I don't see why you are having a problem with others tp'ing you without your consent, unless of course the Incarnate TP does not cause the prompt to pop up...if it does not, then I agree that is a problem that should be addressed at some point.

Purples are level 50 and their Aspects can be Boosted 25% with Boosters +5.

Attuned Purples can be slotted at level 7 and will level up with you (increasing in power as you level). They can not take Boosters. Note that being 'Attuned' does not mean that their strength will exemplar down with you. Aspect scaling while exemplared applies the same way to Attuned as non-Attuned enhancements.

What they have in common is that their Global Set Bonuses never shut off even while exemplaring.


Also note: The game engine has in its database attuned versions of all IOs. They're just not all accessible in the game.... yet... if ever.

I forget boosters even exist most of the time, so oops on that.
But what's this "attuned purples can be slotted at 7" thing? Are they actually in the game already somehow, or is that just diving into the spreadsheets? I only ask because if it's the latter, I'd expect it to change before any such things were brought live. Getting Purple bonuses before DOs would be pretty spiffy, but probably not very balanced.

Not balanced like the DO level enhancements available through Going Rogue at level 1?

I assume the Attuned Purple enhancements will be scaled accordingly at low levels so they're not overpowered... I guess... I haven't looked that far.

I say 'level 7' guessing that they will be like ATOs.

Where is the fix to my moving inspiration tray? Getting sick of moving it back every time I load into a mission.

Then again ATOs can only be catalyzed and "purplified" at level 50, so who knows how they will be implemented.

Guess you didn't read the thread i made regarding this.
Please do, then come back with any ideas, cause i'm out of ideas, so is CS and they placed the 'bug' tag on this issue.

Any and all TP's gave me the prompt.. until the previous patch.
And it only affects one toon.. my main toon.
