At least this TorduVide chap might tire out after a day or two. My stalker has been obsessed with my posts for months it feels like.

I was sort of under the impression that the problem with Brute ATO’s is things like Superior Might of the Tanker’s proc being too strong.

You REALLY need to go outside homie. I’m worried about you.

On alternating weekends I lead a roving gang of bandits that does, in fact, break into homes and force people to do team content at gunpoint. Don’t rule it out.

I do not use my old forum name nor my current game name.

They were nice enough to give solo’ers a pathway with a reasonable rate at all. I don’t see this as a problem. Great job by them making these available to everyone.

A guy claims only 3-4 people are interested in hard mode content and then claims to have a grasp on reality. Classic 🙂

The point of the hostless mechanic is to force your team to get involved to help you. You have everything you need to take down hostless nictus in the form of 7 teammates.

The thank you emoji react isn’t enough here.

I sincerely don’t understand the connection. Care to elaborate?

Agreed, I think we need to see where the price settles and then reevaluate

Continuing to ignore their availability on the market is just dishonest at this point in the thread.

Earn influence anywhere -> buy on market. I’ve already purchased several costumes and the accolade with influence from AE farming. You can do literally any content and still get these. Not sure what you’re not understanding.

Don’t know why you keep overlooking the fact that they can be purchased on the market. Literally any content can get you these things.

The post you quoted is literally highlighting the other ways you can get those rewards without hard mode content???

*IF* you are *ALL* of the following: (1) completely opposed to making alts *AND* (2) completely opposed to having 2+ Incarnate powers for 1 slot *AND* (3) completely opposed to making the influence gained by selling super inspirations. *THEN*, yeah, your use for Empyreans will be limited now. But your playstyle is so rare/niche now that it’s hardly relevant IMHO.

Big time thanks to @America's Angel for being kind enough to share new builds / strategies. Not sure I would’ve figured out the new farming meta with zero hiccups without their posts.

I actually really love that we have a whole new thing to work on. Last night was the first time since the patch went live that I even got around to logging in to any alts besides my main, farmer, and symphony dom. Because I have dozens of alts that need NPC costumes, there is a renewed sense of having lots to do in the game. This is the kind of change that makes you stop asking why you’re still playing this game, because the amount of new stuff to achieve is so massive.

Of the maybe ~130 aethers I’ve used so far, the vast majority were purchased on the market. Definitely no one is being forced into playing any particular content.

If that minor tweak makes this game City of Dark Souls to you, then this whole routine was always hyperbolic nonsense.

Lol the Dark Souls comparisons are so cringe.

Just verifying your opinions are those of a non-player. Thanks.

My experience with AE in page 4 thus far has been that the XP booster bug fix admittedly makes leveling a slog, but after 50 things clear up a lot. The aggro changes don’t seem to be problematic if you respec’d your build to suit the changes.

Ugh. Weren’t you one of the ones allegedly playing on a different server now.
