I am not opposed to discussing changes like this, but as others have said, what are your goals with this change, and what are the benefits/consequences you perceive would come from this?

Weird, good catch!

You need to be completely leveled up before respeccing or the respec will fail, this is working as intended. As far as your enhancements, log out and back in and they should return.

If I were a Dev within the first 5 minutes I would delete Sister Solaris from the ITF, or at least the need to take her to the altar. Statues would soon be erected in my honor, and national media outlets would pick up the story touting me as a national treasure and true hero. Then I would pass on my Dev duties (after having them for all of 10 minutes) to the next generation, and continue playing ITFs, unhindered by Sister Solaris’ terrible AI.

Not sure if this is what you are looking for, but just in case. https://homecoming.wiki/wiki/Sg_music_(Slash_Command)

I have pondered this idea before as maybe a new incarnate tier giving you some extra enhancement slots, have had many builds where 1 or 2 slots would have made a huge difference. It probably doesn't provide enough room for variety, though, as any other part of the incarnate tier would likely pail in comparison to extra enhancement slots.

Doesn’t punish, just lets you know privately that you did not enjoy teaming with this person last time. They will never know that you 1 starred them. I bet I haven’t 1 starred even 10 players and that’s only if they were totally rude, obnoxious, or hateful. On the inverse I have probably 100 people 5 starred, because it helps me recognize players that I enjoy teaming with and makes the game a little more personal when you can say “Hey, @globalname remember that TF that we really kicked butt on?”

I do not disagree with your stance on this as I said in an earlier reply. The inverse is equally as frustrating when someone lvl 50 with all incarnates and fully kitted IOs doesn’t know how to get to Cimerora and holds up the starting of an ITF. My problem is with the negative connotation implied by your original proposal. Make assumptions all you want about players when you run into these situations, but they could just as easily have played the game “The right way™” but are new and still learning. Being kind to players learning the game takes very little extra effort and ensures we maintain a healthy sized community. If you run into the player you described, again, 1 star them and move on.

That is probably the most wrong take I have ever seen. There is absolutely nothing “minimal effort” about badging. It has taken me years to get to 1600+ badges on one toon, and I still don’t have them all! The most challenging content in the game awards badges. I still don’t have “Master of” for all of the iTrials, because they are difficult, require extreme teamwork, and a certain style of play. The pushback, is because OP’s first post described a badge that comes off as “Play my way! The right way!™ You naughty hooligans”

Welcome Home!

Now this I could get behind, even if it were just a badge and no accolade power (Or maybe just an accolade power that is active during Advanced Mode TFs). However, the only possible problem is that we hope the devs have plans for more Advanced Mode TFs in the future, so it's kind of unfair to newcomers to have to do 8 TFs in the future rather than the 3 we have now to receive the badge. This was one of my biggest gripes with the changes to "Master of" badges was that the difficulty in attaining the badges significantly increased for those who did not already have them when they restricted incarnate powers. I'm sure we could find an elegant way to add something like this while taking into consideration future plans though. Side Note: I really want an Advanced Mode Ms. Lib and Lord Recluse

They aren’t being denied TF Commander, they just have not performed the requisite tasks, and can complete those tasks at any time. We understand that you aren’t happy with the state of AE, power leveling, and its impact on the game. I agree it’s not a good way for new comers to learn the game. This game has a lot to offer on the way to lvl 50. But just because someone chooses to play this way doesn’t mean they aren’t a valued member of this community. Negatively connotated and impunitive badges like this are not good for the game. If you don’t like the way someone plays the game, 1-star them, don’t team with them, and move on. But you might find yourself soloing everything quicker than you think.

As much as I am always happy to hear an idea for a new badge, denying players a reward because they choose to play THEIR game a certain way is never going to be received well.

Purely based on DeBuff values alone, I would say a Poison Defender is #1 and it’s not even close. However, the AoE of poison is very small and requires multiple recasts to ensure you have hit all of the major targets, and then hitting another target nearby to make sure you have stacked the small and large debuff. It also requires you to be in melee to be most effective. Been running a lot of KM ITF with the same group of people and our clear speeds are consistently faster with a poison.

I put Musculature Radial in the build I posted, that will give a little boost to damage, to-hit debuffs, and increase endurance recovery. For the rest it's dealers choice really.

If you stay hovering above with mystic flight, and debuff with Spore Cloud, you should be able to help in farms no problem.

Now I'll be honest, I haven't played Nature before, but this is what I whipped up real quick. I don't particularly care for mystic flight and rune of protection myself, but I left those in there because I know they are popular choices. But I ditched super jump, assuming that you would use Mystic Flight most of the time. I got you a little more recharge and a little more ranged defense. I added in Spore Cloud because it is a great -to hit debuff which will be a great benefit to you and your teammates making you all harder to hit. Spirit Shark Jaws also doesn't do much damage before enhancements (In fact it does less than the procs) so for that reason I went with heavier hitting procs and 1 boosted accuracy enhancement to make sure we are hitting our targets. Dropped Entangling Aura, in my experience, the toggle hold auras rarely ever hold anything (at least nothing that was actually a serious threat to you). Mystic Flight was way over slotted, I threw in a Celerity +Stealth in Mystic flight if you want some extra stealth, if not remove that slot and put it in a defensive power to add the Shield Wall +5% resistance. Dropped the procs in Blazing Bolt and Blaze, with the amount of recharge slotted in those powers, they weren't proccing enough for my personal taste. Hope this helps!

Just made my first sentinel. Elec/Elec/Mu and I absolutely love it. 5 seconds into a large mob and nothing has endurance and presents no threat.

I like it! Even if only because I love a new badge and I thought your names/descriptions were clever.

For me, I typically open with flash fire and fire cages. Then start wittling away with fireball, bonfire, and boosted imps after fulcrum shift of course. This generally keeps the mobs locked down and transfusion is a surprisingly strong heal that keeps me alive for the damage that does come through. Strategy is pretty much the same whether soloing or teaming.

Here is what I run. Not the most optimized build, but I like the durability and it plays well. Forum Share (Controller (Fire Control - Kinetics).mbd

What type of mobs were you fighting?

Curious if anyone has found a cause or solution for this? I’ve come back to playing after a 6 month break and I’m having the same exact issue. Screen freezes but game is running fine in background. Powers work, chat works, etc. It appears totally random, but the game doesn’t crash so no crash report to send. Never had this issue prior even with very long play sessions.

Just FYI the changes to Ice Armor -> Energy Absorption do not appear to be reflected to Tanks. I have not tried other ATs on brainstorm yet. Still getting the same defense values from live. I did confirm these were the numbers I was actually getting through use of the power as well with combat attributes. Note: these are enhanced numbers with incarnates/IOs etc.
