Yeah… I did pylon testing back when it meant testing the S/T DPS *of your PvE build*. Zero interest in whatever nonsense is being done with builds like AA’s.

This thread makes me kinda want an Arse/ troller. Controllers are usually more free to proc bomb their primaries than Dominators. My dom only has the S/T hold proc bombed I think.

I haven’t had any characters built for pylon killing in a long time now (basically since 4* ITF came out and replaced the Ageless meta with the Barrier meta), but you’ll be the first to know if I get back into it. Or I can refer you to some of my entries in the Pylon Damage thread Ratch just linked.

Agree - the only info about Incarnates that you can’t get in game is obscure details like how much damage Interface procs do. The crafting process and what each power does is very well detailed in game.

Minimal FX doesn’t always mean No FX in this game. See also Ice Armor or Stone Armor.

Yeah I like my Arse^2 Dom but this “Arsenal has good damage” bit had me like “wat”. It’s definitely most comparable to Earth Control.

Feel free to tell me which part isn’t 100% factual if you like, but more importantly I’d love your take on why I should care. Videra, Shin, and Sai have attacked and insulted me more times than I can count, so it doesn’t surprise me to hear that I slipped up on that front in response.

People aren’t posting in bad faith because they disagree with you. Calm down.

Why did you just give examples of the devs listening to but not integrating feedback (Rune of Protection, etc) if you don’t want me to think you’re conflating it with completely ignoring feedback? I’m not jumping through any hoops - I’m reading the words in your post.

I recognize that you are incapable of tolerating disagreement.

I’ve never seen someone so bad at ignoring someone. You talk about me constantly. No one is being disruptive or starting fights. We’re disagreeing with you. I know you’re used to “my way or the highway” but this is what we call disagreement.

Obviously the devs did the right thing by buffing Council and CoT. For years we have all been open about Council being a complete joke and basically free xp at +4x8. Now that they’re mildly annoying to fight, everyone is conveniently developing amnesia about the previous state of things.

A good point backed up by history. I too have observed that people demand answers so they can have something new to attack, not so they can come to terms with the devs’ approach. So it tends to strike me as very bad faith.

Over and over in this post you conflate whether or not the devs listened to feedback with whether or not the devs chose to integrate said feedback. The two are not the same. And I sure hope you aren’t implying that you or the OP or the OP’s favorite poster are any more neutral than I am here. Because that would be laughable.

Lack of response doesn’t mean the feedback was ignored. Re-read the dictionary definition. Never reading and considering the feedback means it was ignored, and we have no evidence that’s been happening. If the devs were obligated to respond to each and every comment, it would be a tremendous waste of their time, especially when taking into account how many posters were bringing up the same feedback over and over in spite of it being shot down already.

Just because all of your boyfriend’s ideas weren’t implemented doesn’t mean *any* feedback was “ignored”. We certainly won’t avoid any drama in the next round of beta testing if you’re going to cling to false narratives.

At the least, you want to build such that you have 90% res to S/L a bit before you die, if not other types. The last few times I’ve played with my SR tank build, I had at least >40% S/L and >30% F/C/E/N. Unfortunately my SR tank is my only toon where I haven’t broken free of relying on the Fighting pool (well, Tough).

Good on the OP for wanting to figure this out. Just a couple weeks ago my discord mate went to pug the rest of a Tinpex team, asked for shifted level 50’s, and immediately the first person that responds is not +1 even though they were over veteran level 70. We tried to explain to them that they should look into their incarnates and they gave us some bullshit about how they know what they’re doing. Ultimately they were kicked and we went back to LFG. Talk about irritating.

You can’t see other players’ notes/ratings. To add you own notes/ratings, either targeting the player and clicking Actions or right-clicking the player’s name in chat will show an option “Add/Edit Note”.

Are there *any* non-toggle powers in the game with minimal fx options?

Does it happen elsewhere? Yes. Am I prepared to bet money that it happens more on Everlasting? Yes. I’m not sure if it is coincidence or something to do with the idea of RP. There may be some common threads between people that really like to play pretend.

Sounds like Everlasting alright, lol

It will be fine for PvE though you will want an APP/PPP snipe to pad your otherwise subpar single target damage.
