Oh, that was a lovely change I noticed in Brickstown during my exploration badge run: They cleared out almost all the aggro on sight enemies on the path from the Hospital to the tram, almost everything is yellow bordered there now. The exception was some freakshow on the bridge overlooking the tram, but those were engaged against some PPD. Talos Hospital is not quite as friendly. If you're trying to get there from the tram, the block around the hillside has a number of level 24ish enemies to dodge.

I was able to create a Shield Defense/Dual Blades tanker on test when they changed the power attainment levels and the weirdest animation is Blinding Feint.

Oh, I just did this with a level 4, where I tried to get an exploration badge in every zone without using any power but sprint. I think the hardest zone was the Cascades? I had to use something like three jump jets to get to the badge.

It sounds like you haven't read the Code of Conduct.

The posting of what they're playing isn't terribly annoying, since is isn't very frequent. (Though, if I was listening to Apollo 18 on shuffle and posted everything that popped up from Finger tips, I think that would get on people's nerves) but I understand why people find it annoying when the person posting the playlist is just doing that and not really participating in conversation in any other manner. A shared playlist can be fun, it's an attempt to bring the community together in a way, and Paragon Radio was fun at times, especially since it was a way to get introduced to new music (outside of playing Rock Band). But when I'm actually doing stuff it is hard to search for a song, find a version, start playing it, and go back to missions.

Machete, Tough Skin, and Robust Constitution are all helpful in field combat, but I think that a hoe, sickle, shovel, or plow would be a lot more helpful than a knife and pilum.

It's nice, Socrates, but that's a hypothetical dialogue, not a rant.

This is a question. A one sentence question. I don't think you know what a rant is. I came in here expecting at least three paragraphs, but you just ask a simple question that's been answered dozens of times in the Market and Guides forums. It's almost like ranting is a lost art; gone to the americans. Express an opinion. Tell us how much you hate that big sea gulls get all the food. Complain about soggy french fries and how they'd be better if people double fried them to be extra-crispy. Go on a tirade about how there's a co-operative task force to protect Wentworths, but there really needs to be a Strike Force to rob it. Something. You have shamed the word rant. I turn my back to you.

There are a couple missions in Neutropolis that I remember getting different mission objectives from calling in, on both sides. And when you're talking to Merchand on the Crusader arc, I recall him giving you a different option that's less murderous.

I have a different approach for every character. Most recently I've got a loyalist start who stopped doing the Responsibility arcs when asked to murder someone and is now doing the Warden arcs. I'll see where that leads, but I usually feel pretty good about most of the warden arcs. Then I've got a Resistance start Crusader who is going to find new people to associate with as soon as she's asked to turn seers into bombs. Working as a loyalist is out of the question, so it's probably going to be radio missions up until 20.

The third one is either "help the cops" or "help the ghouls"

29 for Summer Blockbuster Double Feature, I'm not sure about Drowning in Blood. Give me a minute. 20 for Drowning in Blood.

Attack them for being identical to you! Dear lord, who is that in the mirror?! GET THEM!

The recharge time on standard shouldn't have changed so it should have the same proc rate.

It won't show up as a recipe, they're enhancements. You can use enhancement catalysts, if you want. Those will also drop at level 50 (but no more than one Enhancement Catalyst per day). It's the very first option when you open up "enhancements"

Single Origin enhancements also suffer from enhancement scaling when exemplaring or doing Ouroboros missions. https://homecoming.wiki/wiki/Exemplar_Effects_on_Enhancements Honestly, you should see better results from exemplaring with Invention sets because the multi-aspect enhancements have somewhat smaller bonuses and are less likely to be reduced by exemplaring. Also, you shouldn't need to "keep up" with invention sets level wise. Any level 25 or better enhancement will be almost as good as an even-level Single Origin enhancement and will provide that enhancement bonus all the way to 50. Unlike Single Origin Enhancements, you can just slot them and forget about them. I have a couple of sets of attuned Invention Enhancements that I just trade between characters as I level them and create new ones. Attuned Invention Set Enhancements shouldn't be any harder to attain than normal ones. The Auction house pools all enhancements, and if someone crafts a level 30 Crushing Impact: Acc/Dam, you can buy it as a crafted level 30, a crafted level 50, or an attuned enhancement, all for the same cost.

You shouldn't be trying to get "the right IO" with enhancement converters, that's not really how enhancement converters are intended to be used. They're great if you've got a bunch of uncommon IOs that you can't sell for the amount it cost to craft them, but if you want a specific IO and it's not for sale, you're usually better off using the merits to buy the enhancement or recipe.

It gives you about 35% DDR without any slotting, which is pretty nice. The -100% endurance after three minutes, less so. It might be more useful after I pick-up portal jockey and the atlas medallion.

I haven't tried Thunderspy, but I'm not entirely sure I like that idea. It kind of depends on how they approach it. If it's a "you get exemplared down to the level of the mission" that seems fine, but if it's a "The enemies get leveled up to match yours" I don't really feel like level 50 outcasts or non-incarnate fueled Trolls are entirely appropriate for game lore.

For my Air Elemental, I went Dark Armour/Kinetic Melee. I had to drop Cloak of Fear and Oppressive Gloom for Whirlwind, but it's a lot of fun.

The best weapons to use against heroes come on the rocks.

It shows up in the attack sets. https://cod.uberguy.net/html/power.html?power=tanker_melee.claws.swipe&at=tanker You see the last entry on that "19.7 points of fire damage" with the yellow flag? That's fiery embrace.

From my experience with Chance for Absorption in Poison trap, it seems to go off every time I cast it, but I haven't noticed if it procs during the psuedo pet duration. From my experience with Chance for Knockdown in Tashibishi, it goes of about every 10 seconds after casting.

You can also see quite clearly that it defines what "No change from live is" because blaster Suppressive Fire was very different from Sentinel Suppressive Fire.

Because it's not a bug, it was an intentional change.
