Where did you get this info? Still having the same problems on Indomitable.

I hope they know that problem was definitely not limited to Excelsior.

Oh good, it needed it. Thanks!

Am I getting excited for nothing?

Go work for Musk. 😉

I tried to undercut it, but the claim item bug stopped me.

Maybe, but it looks like it's happening on a range of computers and user accounts.

Thanks, unfortunately that didn't work for me. 😞

Thanks! How do you verify the manifest?

They probably meant Tar Patch.

Thank you, folks. Needed some new concepts.

I'm thinking of powers like Slowed Response, Enervating Field, Sleet, Tar Patch, and Disruption Field. Am I missing any other big ones?

Sorry to semi-necro. Been playing since 2004, this is far and away the most complete and fun toon I've made. Can do everything well. Excels at teaming with lower levels and helping them be useful, but also helps make incarnate teams even more OP. Can solo with ease. Plus, DP is the coolest looking powerset. 😉 It's all based on shenanigans enabled by the Farsight/PB combo. https://www.midsreborn.com/builds/download.php?uc=1450&c=718&a=1436&f=HEX&dc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

It happens on Indomitable as well. It happens with claiming email items as well as opening super packs. If it happens on one character, it happens to alts as well.

I have the problem on Indomitable.

Same here.

Good pro tip. So Stalagmite isn't part of your attack chain? Isn't it the highest dam power when enhanced?

Yeah, over an hour and still no joy. Something's weird.

Definitely Nemesis.

Yeah, it's happening right now. More in the last 3 days than the 3 years before that. Couple of minutes doesn't do it, either.

Awesome, that makes sense. Didn't understand the -(0.2) for Shockwaves before. What does "Melee_Ones" mean? Man, that really makes Seismic Force suck. If you use it as a buff for Stalagmite, it actually steals a lot of bonus damage by using up the Shockwaves. Not sure I understand that logic. I guess the optimal cast is with about 25 seconds left on Meteor. Having Recharge count up makes sense, only took 18 years for me to find that out. 😉

Very kind of you, sir. But I don't think it's necessary - the point is that it is considerably more complicated than a normal attack chain. I'm really just interested in how to maximize Meteor, or whether it's even worth taking in a high end build. Are the mechanics for Seismic Shockwaves explained anywhere? Hope the little Bopper is doing well.

Anyone seeing this a lot lately? I've been having toons lock up for extended periods of time, unable to claim items. Only for the last few days.

@Bopper I think the math on the Seismic cooldowns is a little more complicated. The reduction to recharge is a stepped function. Using your example, Upthrust would have a recharge of 16/3*(whatever percentage of time it takes to fire Tombstone) + 15/3*(whatever percentage of time it takes to fire Stalagmite) + etc... (which doesn't really matter, because it's now recharged). Meteor really is the only power that matters. It's a very challenging set to understand.

Thanks. Not sure that a Nuke with high recharge going off every 25 seconds would be overpowered, especially since you have to do your buff after it in order for that to happen. Do we know how much each Seismic Shockwave buffs Rock Shards and Stalagmite? Is it all or nothing? Seems like Mids assumes those powers are buffed, at least for Corrupters. But I can't tell for sure.
