I'm guessing they figured out new technology that lets them add a barrier with hp. Or maybe partial aborbs. Yes this + Hybrid makes MMs just stupid redicious. I'm fact, the game is basically over for MMs. Unless they add a new difficulty.

I had been wondering whether we'd see a new set of Super Packs. This suggests the answer is "yes." Perhaps the real question shouldn't be about the new ATO's, but about what the new SuperPack2-only costume set will be, as well as how loud the teeth-gnashing when it's announced will be.

I don't see why it's such a 'big' problem. So people get to talk and come up with new concepts. Big freaking whoop. It's not like the world is about to end. In fact, if a really, stupidly bad idea gets leaked early from Beta, then maybe there might even be enough time to get it changed.|

And for those wondering: Yes; I AM making a statement by posting in every thread related to leaked content. |

Darn, now I'm prolly gonna have to make some decisions about whether or not to slot a Purple, PvP or ATO set from now on. Especially on my Warshade. I was only recently able to collect six catalysts for the Kheldian set I just slotted in one of her attacks!

Ah, so that sounds like it's using the same mechanic they added to Eagle's Claw for Scrappers. That would mean it's a chance of +50% critical hits that triggers some of the time and only lasts so long after triggering.

SD and GD having -res procs worked like a charm too.

It's exactly that, and stacks wonderfully with Eagle's Claw's boost as well.

My question is: Can you use this 2nd set of ATOs along with the 1st set.
So could I have Scrapper Set 1 in a power, and then Scrapper Set 2 in another?
And of course, the Tanker bonuses still suck.

That Dominator Fiery Orb intrigues me. It's as if they keep wanting to play my Kefka-esque Dominator, as that would fit him perfectly.

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

Considering I have first set in flashing steel and second set in gamblers cut yes you can slot both of them (which is a bigg success for me since my character only had two purple sets and now I have 4 %10 recharge bonus :P) Also by looking at numbers I can guess what will be third sets set bonuses will be like. I need a couple of respec in a year or two it seems :P

The Blaster one actually annoys me, in that it seems more like them trying to throw the Blaster people a bone instead of actually addressing the concerns being raised in the forums recently.

Indeed, I can see my MM's slotting the proc only from set 1 and then 5 of the second set all into the same power.

HA! Oh Bp lol.
I think these Enhancements are a bit to high. The benefits of these seem to cater more towards the younger lvl toons. I think that these should be available at level 30 or 35.
At lvl 47 you're already "Meh, I will slot these later." Don't get me wrong a lot of them are a must have but if one could use them at lvl 30 or 35 it will help toons get over that hump.

Judging by the Corr one, they'll be slottable at level 10.

Yeah, that one makes sense but the blaster one also needs to be lowered to level 25 or 30.

What I mean to say is I'm guessing all the new ATOs will likely be like the first round of ATOs.|

I have a question about spiders bite.
Are these the catalyzed versions we are looking at on page 1? If not...
Spiders bite would provide 5%? damage for each 2 slotted. 3 2 slot sets of catalyzed is 15% damage, plus the damage on every attack, worth probably another 1 or 2%. So you are looking at up to 20% extra damage possibly. +Musculature, you could have 65% damage _all the time_ at 50, before additional buffs from set bonuses. It seems conceivable that between spiders bite, musculature, and other things, you could have a full 100% damage bonus, for a walking bonus of 300% damage to all attacks. That is INSANE.
Of course if its just 2.25%, well, thats not as spectacular.
Like wise, 2.25, if not catalyzed, may be as much 6.5% max hps. On something like a tanker-crab, that could be significat, especially stacked with serum....
edit: At the very least, 2 3 setted would give you 4.5% max hps and 5% damage, which when musculatured would give you 50% + set bonuses. I guess thats not TOO bad...

Where the real speculation lies is on whether these would, when they come to live, be convertible from the existing ones or not as out of set conversions.
total kick to the gut
