Fewer than normal this week, but these are easy badges. I'll see you all in Brickstown in a few hours.

No, there's plenty of tools for players to use to mitigate enemy damage.

Travel Power Updates This update brings a wide range of buffs for travel pools, a brand new travel power (as part of an update to the Concealment pool), and some mechanical improvements to how travel powers work. Check out this thread for a detailed breakdown of these changes and our goals for this update. Travel Power Stacking Almost all travel powers are no longer mutually exclusive and can be activated at the same time, but only the strongest buff of each type (run speed, jump speed, jump height, fly speed, air control) will apply This ensures that every power you pick or activate will only ever improve your mobility Some exceptions: Click buffs (eg: Inertial Reduction), external buffs (eg: Speed Boost), and auto powers (eg: Swift) still stack as they did before Prestige Run powers (Ninja Run, Beast Run, Athletic Run) are still mutually exclusive with each other Temporary jetpacks are still mutually exclusive with each other Sprint powers still stack with other run speed buffs and are still mutually exclusive with each other Some Peacebringer flight powers and effects are mutually exclusive with their vanilla counterparts

Hey we're beating the Beta and Transfer server population though!

Cloud of Odorous Smoke is the tip mission you meant. Then select the Vigilante tip option instead of the Hero tip option.

[Insert reply to generic Diantane post]

Yeah, you're right - it is more nuanced than my reply conveyed. I slot two Level 53 acc/dmg DSOs, then four damage procs in those two powers.

Five years on Indomitable. Main server. Played at all hours. If I want something to be ran, I socialize it in advance and ensure there will be players interested in participating. If not enough people sign up, I'll reschedule. I'll also solo because that's fun. I've participated in PUGs on Indomitable that were great and others that were frustrating and terrible. I try to get the most fun out of the time I do get to play, but that's not always what happens. Out Ieveling content is not the best. Luckily Ouroboros is there if I miss a story arc.

Oh this is so good, I'm glad I waited three years for a response. Next Diantane in the making.

Jack moves in Croatoa. The Grim Vale event is also exactly what the suggestion is describing.

I feel like that's what the Timebound Artificer does. Standing at the door to the Labyrinth in the Midnight Squad room. He tells players the whole deal, maybe that's not enough detail for some or they go past him not realizing that's what it's for.

That's pretty close, it's more like 38,000 Fire Damage spread out over 1 second and I believe it's additive depending on where the player is within the 150ft radius of the power if I'm reading this power entry correctly: https://cod.uberguy.net/html/power.html?power=hellions.building_explosion.backdraft&at=minion_grunt Apparently Dillo, Gryym, and Twinshot all have a powerset called "OneShot Powers."

That's the first I've read that, but I'm sold! Yinhancements lol

Don't touch my Yin enhancements!

I appreciate your continued attempts at conveying your frustration and seeking an accommodation to address your concerns in the form of modifying the game. I am strongly against your recommendation and hope that common sense would prevail before such changes are given thought by the Homecoming Team.

Is Toxic Defense a relatively new typed defense?

I don't discount your experience. I've scratched my head as I try to remember when to turn it off and when to turn it back on so I don't miss contacts. I'm happy either way, but until something changes that's what I can do as a player to mitigate the down side.

Go for it - I was sharing both for anyone's use and for the popmenu if desired to have accompanying images.

I use the disable XP option when I don't want to out level content.

I'm in the process of leveling mine. I'll follow this thread closely and post my feedback/results. Edit: I'm also completely unfamiliar with either powersets. It's been fun learning though!

This is a work in progress, as I can't account for why it is occurring. Running a Cathedral of Pain earlier, the Aspect of Rularuu would trigger his nophase power outside of the normal window of using it. https://cod.uberguy.net/html/power.html?power=objects.cathedral_force_field.force_field&at=boss_rularuucop My working theory is something related to Marine Affinity.

Yes

There were nine people in the raid because that is the reality of Indomitable in the early hours of the day. We also run them in the evenings and as pick-up events. I see players in the zone and I say let's do this. Then we do it. Reading in to why things are the way they are without having the data that the developers see is speculative, so I won't begin to guess why things are the way they are. All I can say is to please join me on Indomitable and experience it the way I am describing. I don't see this on Indomitable, but I won't discount your experience and say it doesn't happen. I'll tell you what doesn't matter - players can sing praise to the developer who made the zone or castigate them as out of touch, but at the end of the day, they decide what the reward values are and whether they need changed. And seeing as how the developer has spoken on this top in this very thread, I'll defer you to their post and conclude my banter on the topic of rewards. There are daily Labyrinth raids on Indomitable, the least populated server, almost a month later after the Page was released. Whether that is a honeymoon period or players enjoy the content and like running it, I couldn't conclude which without seeing player data.
