Wow Katana! That's awesome. I really gotta get to one of these weekly events. Thanks for bringing the updates AA!

These are good points @Greycat and @Hedgefund. I am assuming it would not take a lot of effort on behalf of our volunteers to make this change, but as both of you have pointed out, this suggestion wouldn't really change the player experience enough to justify itself. Well they can't all be winners! Thanks for providing input, I have nothing further to add.

I follow what you're saying - the reason not to change the time is the reason not to change the time. Four hours feels like a long enough time to do whatever is required during the trial - okay, fair enough that is a reason not to change the time requirement. Would you agree that same reason not to change the time also applies to a reason to change the time? I mean if it doesn't affect normal players, speed runners, or what have you, then that sounds like it isn't detrimental to the game experience of many players.

Good post idea! I'll go next: I want to thank @TraumaTrain, @Jaxman100, @Midnyte, @FrauleinMental, @TygerDarkstorm@Bananiac, @TrixieKixx AND @EmmySkyfor their weekly themed task force/strike force engagements. Many of the folks who participate post screenshots of the event. The reason I bring that up is because I've never participated for various reasons, but I always find myself checking out their shenanigans each week. Perhaps a vicarious sense of community, as I don't team very often and because it's a bit of a drag pulling together folks on Indomitable. Anyways, they have a fan and perhaps one day I'll sign up for a themed event.

Plain and simple suggestion - the second mission of the Eden Trial (2 of 2) has a four hour time limit. If memory serves me correctly, this was added to prevent farming the map way back in the day when there was not an aggro limit. My suggestion is to remove the timer and the reasons for and against are below: Cons: Removes a motivator for teams to quickly proceed through each objective to reach the final Titan monster. Pros: Gives players an opportunity to enjoy a unique map; badging runs will secure a number of Devouring Earth related badges, abundance of enemies gives players an opportunity to farm (though the enemies are not particularly kind to farming), spelunking(?)/exploring the map. So that is my suggestion - any posters have more reasons for or against this?

If the changes to Moment of Glory were implemented as you suggest, the power would need to be renamed to "More than a Moment of Glory." Seriously though, 15 seconds is plenty of time.

Damn these are some deep thoughts!

Isn't that like a $200 dollar mouse?

Saw the second episode...

Meant to post this in my previous post, both from Beta on Stone Tanker: PvE PvP One thing of note with the Granite Armor change; the additional 25% Psi resistance ends up getting DR'd to zero after about 25% resistance... if the player had absolutely no added Psi resistance from set bonuses or IOs, it may potentially add a little, but to my build - it was not felt at all.

I really enjoy Veluta Lunata's arc and Lord Schweinzer is there for unlimited bank missions once unlocked.

Yeah, for more context, my Granite Tanker: In PvE: Resistance to all but Psi capped at 90% / Defense to all but Psi at 56% In PvP: Resistance to all but Psi at 62% / Defense to all but Psi 33% Edit: And what's funnier is that in PvP squishy ATs actually get built in resistances from their epics' shields that can bring them up near those same PvP caps. They experience DR as well, but it can be seen as part of the reason for this attempt to balance out ATs in PvP.

Wouldn't it be easier to run a virtual machine and mirror it over a network? That way all the hard work is done by your normal gaming setup and you only experience a little latency instead of a terrible graphical interpretation of the game.

That vest!!! Wow great job.

You're right! I didn't see them listed in the spreadsheet that @America's Angel updates, but the winner's AT\Powerset is usually announced each event.

Absolutely love the name and the costume.

Yes!

This is great to see! Thanks for the weekly updates AA.

Imagine that being the beefed up version of the Hami raid, it spawns with a full bloom for every player, but each yellow miti/mito gives every player a merit.

Sounds like a tough job 🤣

I wasn't meaning* to imply in my response to you that you weren't testing or giving feedback. And I can certainly understand your point though, in fact I am in the same boat. One thing I am good at is measuring and comparing stated effects (i.e., what the patch notes say or how it should work) against what is actually happening, and when there is a discrepancy, I ensure the bug report is very detailed to make sure my results can be retested by others.

Head to any merit vendor or merit kiosk. They are free and you can get as many as you want.

Loving the ice theme for the last SF!

Paging @Apparition.

This has been an ongoing process over the past few months, with a number of very dedicated and PvP-knowledgeable players testing these and other proposed changes. And while it isn't solely up to PvPers to test these changes, players who are familiar with or compete in an organized manner (in the arena, for example) and in zones are also testing these proposed changes. Heck, even folks who don't PvP are testing these proposed changes. I honestly can't think of a reason for anyone not to be included for testing - if you or others would like to, I certainly recommend helping the community through the testing and providing feedback of these proposed changes.
