Okay I "LOL'd" there


Edit:


Does this mean i24 will be going to "VIP" beta "soon", "very soon" or "soon soon"? (forgot naming convention and time scaling of that...where's that graph Snow Globe?! )

Actually, behind the scenes Arbiter Hawk likes Blasters and is completely crazy. He'd make nukes into toggles if he wasn't contractually obligated to not break the game.

Just kidding. Arbiter Hawk is a completely reasonable, highly conservative, and very handed developer and I'm sure whatever he's cooked up for Blasters there will be room for at least 200% improvement. Even that thing that AR/Dev blasters are going to go "oh... Oooh... HOLY MOTHER OF GOD!" at.

Yeah, I'd tune in for this one.

Firstly, YAY! And on a day off for me to boot.

Secondly and in all good humor, did anyone else read this as something along the lines of, "Enough with all the blaster complaint threads already. We're fixing you, we're fixing you!"

Patch Notes

The Blaster AT will new accumulate a universal damage buff proportionate to the amount of XP debt they carry. They will also have an option to turn off Patrol XP.

True story: I was bugging Synapse about Blasters from like last year. Then one day he says "look, I gave it to Arbiter Hawk, go bother him."

And then I go talk to Arbiter Hawk and he says "yep, Synapse said I can do whatever I want as long as I shut you up, mu hu ha ha ha!"

Ok, the first half is basically true. The second half is sort of implied.

Hopefully this change will make the blaster AT the undisputable king of damage dealers which was intended from the beginning.

I'll be ecstatic if it enables me to do pretty good damage without spending half my session mezz'ed or running back from the hospital.

Cool, looking forward to it. Hopefully someone will do a writeup for those of us who can't listen in.
