The actual changeover in-game is automated, but updating the message of the day was manual. We've now just done this: So manually updating it is no longer required - that shortlink will take you to the forum thread with the entire schedule.

Shhh, that's a secret!

Hey all. Just to reiterate what Miss said: The official Homecoming Discord is one of our primary avenues of communication, and is actually as (if not more) popular than the forums are. It's generally a lot easier for us to discuss things on Discord, which is why a lot of conversations happen there. Please do remember this is an entirely volunteer operation, so we will of course gravitate to the platforms that allows us to quickly and easily communicate with the most players possible in the very limited time that we have available to us between our day jobs and personal lives. Contrary to what you may think we do read the suggestion forum frequently - and in fact, we often direct people on Discord to go and post on the suggestion forum as it's a lot easier to keep track of here - but obviously due to the aforementioned time constraints it's not practical for us to respond to most of what's posted, wheres a quick comment in Discord is much easier and less time consuming - and as such, these weekly discussions will still primarily be taking place on the Discord. In sum: If you want to stay fully up to date and engaged you should be utilising both the official Discord and our forums. We use both for different purposes. And just clarify what this thread is: The OP is an amalgamation of feedback and suggestions from Discord, not a plan of what we will be implementing. It is just a very valuable source of feedback (one of many sources of feedback) that we use to guide the decisions we make.

I didn't say it gave Defender levels of force multiplication did I? 🙂 And yes, under certain circumstances Tankers will out-damage Brutes, just as Corruptors can out-damage Blasters in certain circumstances. Regardless, as I said before: It's best to leave it there for now. Let the changes settle in on live for a while and see how the playerbase reacts to the changes.

Had a quick chat with Powerhouse about this. We believe this is just a quirk of when each taunt was hitting the targets in your specific test, but we'll do some further investigation to confirm. In real terms though, the Tanker will easily out-taunt the Scrapper in actual gamepaly as this is just one of their many layers of taunting. Honestly as someone who wasn't involved at all in this specific change I have to agree. Tankers are meant to be crowd control and aggro management, not a force multiplier like Defenders are.

It's been discussed extensively in the feedback threads. Just because the decision is one you disagree with it doesn't mean the feedback is being ignored. It's all been read and it has all been considered, but there comes a time when the changes need to be pushed live and left to sit for a while before deciding if any further work is required. I think you're both misunderstanding the patch notes 🙂 These changes specifically bring the different classes of aura in line with each other. All damage auras use the global taunt proc. All purely debuff auras use the global taunt proc. This isn't a nerf, it's just a cleaner way of handling the mechanic. Neither Chilling Embrace nor Cloak of Fear take Taunt sets, just regular Taunt enhancements - they are now the same in that regard. No auras take Taunt sets. Hope this clears up the confusion!

It's actually been this way since Live - I remember having this problem all the way back then! Moving this to help & support though as it doesn't belong here 🙂

I believe Soul Extraction is classed as a normal pet rather than a Henchmen (ie: controllable persistent MM pet), so it'll be covered in the pass that also deals with Controller / Dominator pets.

Probably worth me re-posting the response from the last time this was raised 🙂

Please read and follow the steps in the first post 🙂

Hello everyone! Today we’re publishing an updated privacy policy, which you can find here. This time around we’ve included explainers in-line with each section of the policy so there’s not a huge amount for us to say here! We’re doing this in order to enable the Homecoming Crash Handler for the Pineapple Stress Test that’s happening this Saturday. Once active, you’ll now see this when the game crashes: This tool will allow you to upload crash reports to us which are incredibly helpful in resolving any issues you are facing. This is especially important if you are currently only able to use Safe Mode, as it will soon be discontinued. Assuming all goes well with the test, the crash handler will be pushed to the live servers soon. That’s all for today - see you on Pineapple on Saturday! - The Homecoming Team

Just FYI - the AH is cross-shard (this was also the case on live too). The AH has never worked well, sadly. To say it's poorly made would be putting it mildly 🙂

The reason this only occurred on your new setup is that many Steam games (and other software) will automatically install this for you, so most people already have it installed.

Awesome guide!

Enhancements aren't seeded, just salvage and super packs!

Dial it back a little guys 🙂

Just to clarify - we don't delete/ban copyright violations unless they continually ignore requests to not break the rules 🙂 @OP there's several valid suggestions & questions in the thread, please read through them and let us know if you're still having trouble.

@Caulderoneis correct, this is a frequently occurring issue. Adds a bit of excitement to using the AH!
