Whatever happened to the Dominator love that was supposed to be given in I22? I only saw Stalker love and lots of it.

Also, with Galaxy and Dark Astoria now being echoed, can't we have the Echoes of Faultline and Rikti Crash Site in Ouroboros too?

You didn't notice Dark Control and Dark Assault?

You mean what Controllers also got (and do better with) and what all melee and ranged ATs have had forever?

I mean some of the new powersets that were promised to dominators as "dominator love."

The context of "Dominator love" was that Dominators had not gotten any new power sets since Electric Control with the launch of Going Rogue, whereas everyone else has gotten at least one new powerset option since the launch of Freedom.

In addition to the new powersets, which are what was most likely the thing referred to as Dominator Love, doms also benefit from the changes to Gravity and the buff to Jack Frost. And I'm probably forgetting something else.

I guess someone in the office forgot to do Save As Copy before making the changes.

They didn't, those zones don't just get thrown out. I'm positive the original Paragon Dance Party is still around and inaccessible, and last I heard, characters in the old Faultline are still there now. The crash site should still be there as well. I'm guessing the only reason they're not in Ouroboros is because those badges are still obtainable, unlike Dark Astoria and Galaxy City.

But I love my new dark/dark dom.

As I understand it, finalists in the monthly dev-run costume contests are sometimes teleported to an instance of the old PDP for judging. So it's still there, the doors are just locked up tight.


FUN FACT: That burst of light when you level up is actually the effectiveness escaping from your enhancements all at once.

New Faultline and Rikti War Zone aren't as much as "Revamps" as they are just carbon copies minus the terrible original design.

Yep. Same case for Faultline and presumably RCS. If you logged out in any of those 3 when they were closed down, you can still go back.

Galaxy City and DA were slightly different, though. People in Galaxy I believe got teleported to AP. People in DA are still there, and the zone connection got changed to Ouroboros rather than Talos. In both cases, the "original" zones don't exist, the originals are just prefixed with "Echo:" and have had the contacts removed.

Sorry, I would have put a winky at the end but I heard that Golden Girl has applied for a trademark on them.

(Yes, I have no doubt they still exist.)

Oh I did... but I was expecting more love than just those two. That's not love that's a soft caress or a preliminary at best. I was expecting something that would work you hard, leave you breathless and then cuddle up afterwards.

Ah well.

It's the only primary set that controllers have that doms do not have. Not sure if there is a reason other than it has not been done.

For the record, I was going to start this thread, but I didn't want all of my posts to be complaints. We've already got someone for that. (-:

Says the person who has obviously never visited the original Rikti Crash Site. Sunken Road is quite a bit more barren now than it used to be, that's for sure.

Maybe the devs wanted everyone to have created and sufficiently leveled some kind of dominator/controller in advance so that the promised "love" would be better appreciated?

By monday there will probably be thousands of new high level doms ready for umbra beast fixes and any sort of control AT buffs.

umm.... they are pretty heavily differnt. The new faultline area before the dam is smaller than the old one.


Jay Doherty: Yes, there was this one night that I was ready to go home but had to drop the browns off at the super bowl before I left for home. While on the throne it hit me. I stayed for a few more hours and that why we have the pain pads in the game.

Someone posted a video awhile back of old Faultline. Basically old Fautline was nothing but a giant crater filled with tons of huge pits and tilted buildings. You couldn't even actually go to the dam or in the watery area.

Plus the only reason why Galaxy and DA were saved was because of the badges they provided.

As to Rabbit, what were you expecting? Doms are already good and got tweaked awhile back. And any powerset they get can be proliferated to other sets, so I don't really know what they can get that would be unique to just that AT.

...the map for Faultline changed quite a bit with the revamp. You've obviously never seen either of the pre-revamp zones.

It's not a revamp like Astoria though. It's just a less awful design. It's sort of like if we got an Atlas Park echo pre-WW, AE, and i21.
