Seems /signed to me.
Open Archetype Suggestion thread!, Kirsten's Epic Weapon Pools, Feudal Japan, Etc., Alignment specific Rularuu iTrials!
If Masterminds didn't suck, they'd be the most powerful AT in the game.
I'd rather they just phase out Shards. Which is too bad because I liked the way the Alpha slot worked.
H: Blaster 50, Defender 50, Tank 50, Scrapper 50, Controller 50, PB 50, WS 50
V: Brute 50, Corruptor 50, MM 50, Dominator 50, Stalker 50, AW 50, AS 50
Top 4: Controller, Brute, Scrapper, Corruptor
Bottom 4: (Peacebringer) way below everything else, Mastermind, Dominator, Blaster
CoH in WQHD
Given how stupidly rarely they drop, I don't think a 1 shard = 1 thread conversion is unreasonable now. At least then they'd serve some useful purpose again.

Shards should be removed and threads should drop for every mob only for 50s.
I dont see the point of shards, now that we have 5 Incarnate slots.
There is not only Alpha anymore, shards worked fine for 19,5 but not anymore.
They are so rare I think they should completely remove them from game.
If the devs plan to phase them out...well...I'm going to be sad. I think they are pretty cool and fun to have around even if no one uses them.
However, I would like to see them repurposed. They are fragments of incarnate power found throughout the world, and I have a suggestion for them.
1) Add a new option to attach them to IOs and attune them. By tapping into these shards, you can fight at nearly full power at any level, as a kind of justification.
2) Craft our own inspirations. Let us turn them into inspirations. I'm thinking 4 shards = 1 of the incarnate salvage. Which can then be turned into an inspiration.
3) Make favour of the well grant instant iXP or random rare/vr threads. Slowly you can convert any spare shards you get or get one from the WTF or WSF. Notice grants 1/3 the xp and an uncommon, small chance for rare.
4) Incarnate recepies. I may not like how Shayla suggested it, but it would be nice to have some.
5) Incarnate temp buffs. I've suggested this before and I'll suggest it again.
