Dark Current

This is ridic! I don't pay a monthly subscription for servers to keep crashing!

Can the patron arcs be added to the WST rotation? A lot of people have to run these things and it's getting monotonous. Would be nice if there was some bonus reward. They are TF length in regard to number of missions, as well as requiring AV fights, which typically requires teaming. It would encourage more redside play and vary the redside choices for WST beyond the few options that currently exist. They could be balanced with blueside specific trials, which don't currently enter the rotation as there is no redside counterpart.

All the incarnate abilities are OP. They were not meant for 'regular' play.

The SO enhancement drops and upgrade from maintenance screen are great ideas. I'd like to see this go further by removing TOs entirely and replace with additional influence / infamy gain instead, or increase low level IO recipe / salvage drops. This system also doesn't diminish the need to visit stores and vendors because you still need to get the SOs you can upgrade anyway. Speaking of, can you look at the drop rate of various classes of enhancers? Range increase is still considered one of the cornerstone drops and it's practically useless. Meanwhile, endurance mod is a rarer drop when everyone wants those for stamina.

Never mind. I figured out that I was just stupid. It was a Lockdown IO and I hadn't trained yet to 27, so it wasn't letting me slot it. As you were!

I thought VG takes Hold sets. Now it doesn't. Am I imagining that it used to on live?

Madness! Ice slick is ice control's best power!

If you want to play in melee then your primary is the most important pick. I'd suggest one of the elemental sets: fire, ice or elec.

Doesn't appear on my blaster either.

Titan Weapons or Large Stick Affinity? Sonic Resonance or Sound Affinity? Dark Miasma or Smoke Affinity? Beast Mastery or Zoological Affinity? I could go on. The point is you're launching a new set. Giving it a boring affinity name isn't selling it. And if this game ever goes legit you need a creative team leading it that can do better. I think the new name should have Elec- in it so it follows shorthand naming convention: elec/elec. A simple change like Electrical Conductance (while not the sexiest) is more unique than Affinity and specific to what the set does. It also sounds cooler and fits the naming theme of other sets like Radiation Emmission and Sonic Resonance. And for the record Darkness Affinity is another terribly boring name. Please change.

Exciting names get people to want to play them. What would you rather play: Street Justice or Asphalt Affinity?

Why can't sets that have a build up mechanic provide a new power button like domination that you can click when you want to use it? I don't like having to build something like static only to use it willy nilly when you click some other power. Why can't I build up 5 stacks and store until I want to make use of th hem fully charged?

New name is very, very boring.

But you miss his point: "...the game just feels kind of "meh" because you get into a team and just faceroll through +4 x 8 mobs like they're butter in a frying pan. It feels like the overall higher survivability of classes in general has devalued debuff mechanics, healers, and tactical game play." He's already at the max difficulty in the game and it's easy mode. Several types of gameplay are devalued compared to raw DPS. And he's not the only one who's brought this up over the last few months. But every time it is brought up, the response is a lot of hate and boils down to 'we don't need more challenge, so shut up'. My caution to you and others is to watch what you ask for. If all those people start leaving, the population will erode and you may end up with a husk.

So if this complaint about the game being too easy keeps coming up then why do others ignore it and shout the person down? This is a perilous response.

Do you think the devs thought Psi Dart was part of the Regen set? That would explain the stealth nerf.

Doesn't every TF place you in subservient role? Positron could save the dam in 30 sec but instead he finds some lackeys looking for influence to do it for him while he stands on a pedestal.

This sounds like a 'how to play' guide.

Sounds like the next XP farm to me!

Are you going to answer the question or continue to tell them how unimportant you think it is?

So casual play. Fire is mainly ranged and so is dark control. So stay back and control, blast, blast, control. Sorcery works well with that strategy. You can replace your t2 blast with arcane bolt. Use buffs on your pets... enflamed haunt? Skip .most/all melee attacks. Slot up living shadows to keep groups at distance. Take fire epic pool for more ranged air. Hunt kill skullz

The real outrage is how the phalanx dumps miss liberty's body on the cold stone of atlas' pedestal while lamenting her loss.

What is it you're planning to use this dominator for?

I have one with permadom build that focuses on Stun stacking as his thing. In his mid 20s atm, but will be a monster when I'm done.
