Wow, with those numbers it's tempting to build for tanking, did you snag Confront? -
I could've swore it was tied to the enemy's health - not the type of attack being used on the enemy.
-
I set my expectations low enough that anyone can step over. As a side effect, anyone who plays with any semblance of team strategy or individual skill is a happy surprise. Anything to the contrary is what I expect.

Long live Elude! Big fan of it myself. Glad you're trying out a few powers in combination. I'm pretty satisfied with the Elude crash - if I haven't defeated the target in 3 minutes, I should probably reassess what I'm doing! Or if I'm fighting a group of AV/Heroes, it's nice to have some added def against any -def powers.

kiosk potential... anyone click on them?

Oh! I had no idea, thank you for the heads up.

Edit: Disregard post! Since @Laucianna is already posting images on to their Discord, they can copy the images and paste them on to the page you referenced without adding to their own storage limit on the HC forums. It's just like linking a website: In Discord, right click (the image) and select "Copy Link" then paste the text in to a HC thread. Below image is linked to this: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/572119182158594049/1157828859849363486/image.png?ex=65ff6ca7&is=65ecf7a7&hm=d28912bcad2760d8cdd1f770b1f4e864591a2e7ba029722ebf68b0b0477ed9f4&

I experienced the image storage limit a few years ago. After deleting many images in my posts, I hit it again two years ago. I have since given up trying to store images on Homecoming and instead use images already hosted on another site and link them in my posts.

travel power Aracnos Soldier Travel Power
Glacier Peak replied to DarianRitten's topic in Suggestions & Feedback
Real Soldiers take the shoelace express travel power! And they like it! Hooah 🇺🇸 -
You can turn Bosses off when soloing by changing your difficulty setting. This is found by clicking the Chat tab Chat bubble icon.

I don't think Burnout should have a place in discussion about power balancing, but at the same time, as @Jacke points out, it's there and powers devs have to be aware of it when making changes. Having powers not meant to be chained together like Elude or double nuke is certainly a concern, but it should stay an exception to the rule and not the norm. At the same time, why would a player waste Burnout on Sleet when it already comes back so fast? Players can get Benumb perma for AV/GM battles. I could maybe see a case for Heat Loss.
-
Ah that's interesting to read - I scoured through patch notes today looking for any changes to this power since Issue 6 and couldn't find any. Do you know a ballpark time frame when this was the case?

An Idea For a Challenge Mechanism

Ah my apologies. I could've swore someone teleported me during the event to multiple places. It's been a while for me too! -

Isn't this Summer Blockbuster? The Heist one? -
No one plays hardmodes because they suck
Glacier Peak replied to TheSpiritFox's topic in Suggestions & Feedback
If a player doesn't enjoy a specific section of content in this game, they are perfectly capable of not participating in said content. Taking away content that players enjoy and the developers enjoyed making seems spiteful. This is not a suggestion I support.- 45 replies

I went to some lengths to ensure that people knew the history behind the change - based on a formula that had been established over twenty years ago, along with the added context of how Freezing Rain was the progenitor of Sleet.
-
The winds of change have begun to below - another poster mentioned the improvements to Defender Storm Summoning (or was is Storm Blast?)
-
I don't see anyone discounting the point about the place of Cold Domination amongst the highest performing sets in the game. There is disagreement that the powerset has not been substantively negatively impacted by the change, with posters indicating both that it was and was not noticeable in their experience. Edit: I am specifically referring to Cold Domination for Corruptors in the above sentence.
-
This is the kind of insight I was lacking on the Freezing Rain connection! Thank you for sharing.
-
I'll count myself as one of those who were confused on what the stacking meant. Thank you for enlightening me and the rest of the thread. In your second paragraph, I pointed to as much in my original thread - regardless of the reason, the change was made. I'm still seeing a consensus that this change did not make a substantive negative impact on the performance of the power (for Corruptors specifically, though mac mentioned it hit Mastermind's harder).
-
Adding additional context for the lay person: Sleet used to apply it's debuffs on every tick on target in the area, which meant that it could apply the debuff over and over to the same target to extend its duration past the actual pseudopet. With the Page 7 change, it now applies once per target in the area.
-
Thank you for your post - I also agree the change is barely noticeable in my experiences, especially when added to the context of a full rotation of Cold Domination powers to a mob or GM/AV.
-
Like @arcane pointed out, this is a slight downward tweak overall. Looking at Sleet in game (see below), I noticed that it can still stack multiple times on the target (Rikti Pylon). Can anyone clarify what is meant by "pet effect set to ignore stacking?" I thought Sleet was made in to a true pseudopet.
-
Thus far, I'm seeing that for the sake of balance, powers for Archetypes should be tied to the inherent values of said Archetypes. I think this is correct and I would hope this continues for future power development. I'm also reading that how a power behaved over two decades has no bearing on how a change should be made, in this very specific case of Sleet. Perhaps a less reductive approach could have achieved a similar desired balance - for example, on Corruptors - allow Sleet to Scourge enemies.
