I wanted to say Hardmode content too but honestly you don't see a whole ton of hardmode teams advertising.
Well on Excelsior whenever Hard Mode ITF is even whispered in LFG it has MUST HAVE T4 BARRIER in bold with stars and exclamation points and middle fingers!

Totally agree with this concept. Spice up existing characters. @OmegaOne's reference to thematic holes is another. Hell they don't have to even be APPs they could be regular ole power pools. There was old talk back in the day about gadgets (Tech) and I (and others) have posited grenades in various fashions.

The Elemental and Corsair robe pieces always remind me of Adam Ant.
Are you serious? or just desperate 🙂.

Patrick Nagel I want all of my characters to look like they were drawn by him. So Eighties. Or Dakota North, the covers not the interior. God I still remember the paper doll cutout issue. 80's = Aweseome

Space: 1999 Was my jam when I was a kid, Season 2 not as good as Season 1 (plus S1 had awesome theme) though Maya was a little bit money. I actually have a com-lock and stun gun I ordered form their official site. The show actually caused you to use your brain a little. Granted I also loved the original BSG so, brain counter. Thunderbirds is still fun to watch and UFO isn't so bad.
I even threw a Breakaway party when I was stationed in San Diego in September of 1999, invited a lot of friends, most of them never heard of the show and mocked the pilot episode but we got drunk as get all so mission accomplished Alpha Moonbase.

For Dr. Q you tend to be dealing with blues as you're 45 to their 43ish, it gets worse after that when you're 50 hunting, at worst greys and at best, more blues. Those hunts a time sink with zero risk/zero rewards. Well, maybe not 0 risk, I've seen people die to ambushes. The Storm Palace is the only zone that's a threat to a 50 and there's no hunt there, Faathim just has a series of open world clicks.
Watch out for snakes!

And all SG Girls of Nukem High Squad did it in about 1 hour 40 minutes, but we all had the value added tools. TT, MT, ATT and a fairly balanced team to deliver pain unto the Rularuu. But the fact that not one but two of the four Shard TFs can be done solo (albeit slowly) without even having to be challenged by an AV or EB is kind of . . . silly.
I think that in addition to reducing the overall length (mission-wise) of all of these they could use it as a chance to explain or expand the lore of the shard. Doctor Q is supposed to be the start, getting used to the zone, I get that but really, do we need another Numina hunt series. That is part of the annoyance I have with the Shard TFs is all of the padding hunts. Instead give us a taste of the lesser aspects of Rularuu like Alorre the Watcher or Kuularth the Scavenger, or show us the Factory Cubes. First TF, get to know Rularuu, a couple of minor aspects fought, Rularuu feels threatened in his prison. Sara Moore, clean up and shorten some with your Ruladak battle at the end still there (its actually a cohesive story). Augustine, add a few more of the aspects, shorten. Same treatment with Faathim as Sara Moore.
Now this is key, at least in my mind, it needs to remain as a thing that occurs/occurred before the Who Will Die SSA because of how that one rolls (no spolier). That way the door is still open with regards to any possible movement relating to The Battalion as the Shard and Rularuu are factors (according to AMA Lore at least). But even if you dont go there, its a nice capstone really.

Okay, thought this was a thread about the trainer in Peregrine that they replaced Castle with. Reading is fundamental.

Because my game play area is a shared space in our house where my spouse watches TV and we have periodic pause and talk time, I have always played with the sound muted on my PC, not in game . . . unless I am alone or hunting a missing glowie. Conversely I get to enjoy not hearing howling pets . . . or Howling Twilight . . . but the Howling wasn't a bad movie.

Not trying to change your mind or combat you on it. Just putting it out there why there will always be at least two different factions of viewpoints on what Trek should be about. I say "at least" because other challenges have arisen over the years.
I hear you mate. The nice thing about the utopia of Roddenberry is that you can respect what others have to say.

I just need to get this off my chest because . . . just ugh.
The existence of Section 31 is the antithesis of what Star Trek was supposed to be about and it sickens me that it is embraced like it is and that it is going the get a movie.
Thank you.

Hit and miss for me. Jet Packs and Jump Packs, and any summons (War Wolf, Loa Bone) I keep and actually drag out onto an ancillary tray. A few temps work well from a thematic standpoint that I feel character invested when they use them on a lark; grenades on my traps people or my gunfighters. At low levels when doing Flashbacks they are helpers, especially stuns (Confiscated Beanbag is awesome really). Some you can get over again when you use them up via Ouroboros, Striga really is great for two good temps (Wedding Band and Whistle). Temps form Safeguard/Mayhem are on my like list.
But others, I actually delete them. Almost never even think about them and the clutter bothers me.

Just like my man at First Command says; you gotta diversify your investments.
Some gold bars from a defeated enemy in the Iran/Iraq AOR, a little property that might have been signed over under duress, perhaps some "missing" pieces of art from a random war to spice things up, you know, no big deal right?
Seriously, I sell almost everything on the market at the 5 INF mark unless I know I can get bigger cash for it by converting or or its something I use a lot of. Then I craft and wait to slot, or convert to Attuned, saves me buckets with regards to things like Miracle, Numina, LotG. That way I spend my money on the things that I don't get often that I do need (I am glaring angrily at you Shield Wall)

A Tale from Outbreak
The Doctors soft smile and warm tone disappeared. “Don’t you please me. When the Fury Virus struck back in 02, and that whole section of the city was quarantined, I was in there doing everything I could both as a medical doctor and with the powers that I was given to save them, to cure them. And I couldn’t, none of us could. And once they completely turned and got to that out-of-control state we couldn’t do anything, but we still tried, and many of us died in there trying until the military was called in, normal people like you and their solution was to open fire to stop them from breaking out and when that failed, they freaking napalmed the place. And all we could do was soothe their pain until they died.”

Hmmm I would be game for an all Empathy ITF. But would 5-star be a 4-star run with foes buffed on top of the usual 4-star buffs? Not sure what you mean by "5h1t" show though. I would love to find out how fast Rommy gets crushed.
Yeah that was a typo, 4 star was what I meant and s h i t show, like crazy possible disaster possible insane-o fun or both or none and just pain and strife.

The Girls of Nukem High run SG specific "Class Trips" which are generally us doing SG only TF or SF. We do have a special event where we all jump on Illusion Controllers we have created (that all look alike for a sort of Village of the Dammed Look), then go to Way north PI and kill lots of GMs then drag back as many as we can to give people hanging out in PI a chance to form leagues to fight them (we warn and don't pull them to Portal Corps, we aren't J-For after all 🙂 )
But I have seen some power-set themed calls in LFG on Excelsior, I seem to remember a All Kin call. I have seen several all Mastermind ITF calls and the like. I would hazard to guess its a hard sell on short notice but with advertising I imagine you could even put together an all Empathy 5 star ITF . . . it would be a 5h1t show though.

Procs. Please don't say this is all about getting a handle on Proc "abuse" or whatever. I don't have a single proc in Suppressive Fire because I have other play styles and the fact is, the suppression of suppressive fire is how I have used it on most of my DP toons minus the Sentinel because . . . Sentinel. But how can anyone say that the proc action is changing. You can still slot all that in there because it still does a hold (now super ineffective and pointless) and does more damage. and now, it freaking has a super fast recharge so all I see is more proc.
Again, not always about damage. I can count on like five fingers the number of times that my non-proc, non-Uber Set IO level 35 DP/Ninja Blaster has been face planted.

Please note, I am not saying they are bad people for demanding it, its their TF they can run it how they see fit and I can opt not to join; FREEDOM (Freedom not available in all locations; void where prohibited). Granted I have it on one or two but I Incarnate based on what I want.
