So, I just noticed that the Coyote travel power costs as much as a vanity pet that serves zero actual purpose.

Hrm.

Nice work Chad.

Too bad none of these items nor the Story Arc is of any interest to me. Beast Mastery was 'eh" to me. I was all fired up, playing every night for months straight, then a little green drunk man was released on the market before 2x XP weekend, and suddenly, I can't bring myself to log into the game anymore.

Thanks for doing that. Paragon Studios repeated failure to even mention what they hope to sell continues to baffle me.

I would say that 90% of the decisions that Paragon makes regarding the store baffle me. From the UI, to the pricing, to the limited time sales of ATOs, it's nonsense.

Yep... another week w/o staff fighting means another week playing "Baldur's Gate" again!

I'm waiting for that till summer, when the "enhanced edition" reissue releases. I'm actually more excited about that then any of the major releases of the last year. (some of which I was looking very forward too)

I'm kinda 'meh' on staff fighting and haven't bought beast mastery either (MM's are not my thing), but that's ok as I still got loads of characters to play with the power sets that released in the past months. I still haven't rolled a titan weapons or dark control character yet!

I agree. I was under the impression that War Witch implied that staff would be released before the end of the month.

I was pretty sure we wouldn't get two power sets so close to eachother. I'm guessing staff fighting won't be next Tuesday either: Maybe the following...

Just the opposite, in fact. We were all kind of assuming it was mere weeks away, then her "letter" hit the forums with a complete release schedule for March (which turned out to be 100% accurate) and no mention of Staff Fighting whatsoever.

Come to think of it, the only time since that letter appeared that I remember seeing any Paragon staffers so much as mention the set or acknowledge (never mind answer) a single question was on the most recent Freedom Friday topic on Facebook, and that was just to tell people not to bother asking about it. It's like they're under orders not to talk about it. I haven't been following uStream very closely, though -- maybe it's been brought up there?


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

Now that's some sensible tie-in marketing, Paragon. Thank you also for at last explicitly noting when sales end (since you have customers in numerous time zones).

Although I'm not in the market for a new Mastermind power, I'll definitely pick up the extra costume pack while it's on sale.

Well the best part is i get 400 points on 29th (paragon rewards) so...ill have extra 400 pts for store once staff is out.


as Ood Sigma said....We will sing to you, Doctor. The universe will sing you to your sleep. This song is ending. But the story never ends.

I just think it is kind of booty to hold a powerset on beta for four months prior to releasing it. I do however, understand why Paragon did this base on Z's posting about scheduling, I just think whoever thought that one up probably needs to rethink it.


The development team and this community deserved better than this from NC Soft. Best wishes on your search.

And no AM/EM/HM's for converters as promised either. Surprise surprise.

'Upcoming patch' was all that was promised. Not 'the next patch' or 'next tuesday', just 'an upcoming patch'. So their promise is still valid.

Only 90%? I peg my own bafflement of the Paragon Market extends to 99% of it, down to their choice of third party "helper".

I'm looking forward to the staff fighting, but I'm fine with the wait.
Finally rolled a kinetic melee (though I did play one in that beta long ago).
Titan Weapons, I'm still not sure on, but it looks to have promise.
Got my Street Justice up to 50 already. Love that set.
Dark Control is showing a lot of promise.
Liking Time, but not as much as Dark.
I'll get Beast MM eventually, just like I'll pick up various costume stuff eventually. (more options!)

I'd guess because the travel power has direct competition in the form of ninja/beast run which are superior.

War Witch said nothing about Staff Fighting in her producer letter, but did list everything that would be out in March (though without giving either release dates or order).
