So, is there a particular reason why you can't re-slot an incarnate ability for well over 5 minutes? I wanted to switch between two hybrids I got to see what 'combat attributes' change and by how much. My hasten refreshed multiple time now and I still get the message I can't switch my hybrids because of cooldown.

Congrats to the winner. Could only stick around for the costume contest due to time, looks like the follow-up was a blast as well. On Reunion I did notice A LOT of players vanishing from my screen at some point due to the sheer number of either just players or effects going on, SG members reported the same. I blame not winning on the GM's not seeing me on their screen anymore. ;)

Thanks for the input people! Good to know this now that I'm finally level 50. Personally leaning to spiritual core for alpha, even solo, if you set the enemy number to high you can have max resist most of the time. Still going to fiddle with the other incarnate slots. Having 'rune of protection' from the Sorcery pool (not sure if I can perma that one) also gives me absolute beast status defense/resistance in human form to make sure I can pull of the Eclipse - 2x mire - quasar combo. and pick off the rest in nova/dwarf as needed.

I see some people complaining about the playstyle of others, some even claiming it isn't the 'proper way to gain XP'. I would really like to know this: Why should I be forced to 'grind the lore to 50' when I do not like to do so? I might at some point want to grind the lore to 50 and at the moment I can make that choice, explain to me why that should be taken away just because you perceive it as a slight against you? I prefer to get to 50, kit my build out, then enjoy the lore without having to repeat any section and be as optimised as I can be for each arc I play. Are my characters AE PL'ed? No, sure I am making an (AE) PL build on a second account to multibox for my other farm builds I will eventually make for my main account but so far I have two level 50 characters. The vast majority of the XP was gained in parties not running AE/DFB. They both only repeated missions if the party he was in happened to do a mission they had already done and did DFB twice on my second character (first character was made before DFB became popular). Took me three weeks for both, with a full-time job to get them to 50. Didn't pay attention to the lore outside of cut-scenes, because I prefer enjoying the party I'm with at that time and I'd be too distracted for it anyway. And to those who pose the question "Why should I grind X, when option Y allows me to skip it" please ask yourself: "Why is that even a question to me?" Because the answer should be self-evident and therefore make it a redundant question: "Because I like to grind X" and I would like to ask you: "Why does having an option bother me?" You can grind You can PL/farm You can party, yes; at low pop times this can be a...grind if you're dead set on (not) doing something specific in a team. Don't blame others for you limiting yourself, sometimes you need some patience. You can solo How does shortening this list to only grinding and party play make the game more widely enjoyable?

I never knew about the MF' ing warshade until this forum and so sadly, never saw it's true potential during live. Now, however, I'm pretty sold om the Carpal Tunnel that is the true MF' ing warshade and have made a Mids build for a layout to go with the state of mind. When selecting the incarnates I want to apply, I noticed they get toggled off whenever I try to look at a shapeshift's stats (Dwarf most often). Is it a limitation in mids or do the (passive) incarnates like Alpha get disabled in shifted forms? This would affect which (alpha) incarnates I would slot.

Aren't there timed toggle powers like the jetpacks that you can toggle until you have used it for its allocated time? i.o.w. you can have the skill for years if you only use the time on it sparingly?

It's a multi-server issue and not just a fake floor. Nothing spawns, can't use the train or any form of leaving your area. addit: should specify I was on Excelsior.

I think it's how the overload of the servers is handled for existing characters. Making a new one gives you an actual message the server is overcrowded and to try again in a few minutes.

I got disconnected in Steel Canyon on Excelsior, also have my character in the 'Unknown' location in the Character Select screen -> instant 'Cannot find map!' message when trying to zone in.
