You also have to remember that AT plays a role with how effective Hover and CJ are due to modifiers. Tanks and Defenders get 2.5% Defense from these powers (a single +3 SO or a high-level basic IO will get you just above 3%, which isn't bad!), while Blasters only get 1.75%, and can pull off about 2.5% enhancement value. Other ATs are somewhere in the middle. I know that doesn't sound like a lot, but keep in mind that the IOs that grant a flat 3% defense are pretty pricey on the AH, so clearly people agree that +3% Def is a big deal :)

I'm pretty sure the MDC is all us! I'm not sure why they made it work that way, though I would guess because we can't summon enemies (though we can apparently summon an ally that summons an enemy?)

Hey all! So, we've confirmed that this IS a bug, and should NOT be happening. Since the Dev team is on vacation and not available to fix anything not utterly game-breaking until January, our suggestions is to avoid opening Super Packs until then (as the 2xp boosts are kinda meaningless when they're free from p2w). Unless you don't mind having those instead of the experienced powers, then, w/e,

Well this went downhill quick. Since OP is unwilling (and perhaps now unable) to post proof of their claims, and since half of you are content to make fun instead of be helpful (though Thank You to those who tried!), I'm just gonna lock this up. @Squeegle, if you encounter issues like this in the future, please post evidence (preferably screenshots) in the bug report forum. Thank you.

Like, OMG, did you totally see what Becky was wearing yesterday?! *cough* I MEAN Let's keep it kind, folks. Had to delete some arguing.

Hey all! So, there will be an Official Announcement on this Soon. Hopefully before next Tuesday when they go on sale for 15m. And I really hope the HC Team is ready for cries of DOOM when they reveal this will probably be the LAST time the Winter Packs go on sale! Glibness of my post aside, that's the deal; 15M starting next Tuesday, until the end of the Winter Event, and it will probably be the last time they go on sale. Have fun!

This sounds similar to a bug we're tracking involving Lightning Bug and Shield charge. The power just... doesn't attack. We're aware of it and are working on a fix 😃

IMPORTANT NOTE: Something in this update broke The Freakish Lab of Dr. Vahzilok from Doc Buzzsaw. Please do NOT run this arc at this time until a fix has been released (The Devs area aware and are attempting to fix the issue). While a GM can help you bypass the part that's broken, we can't guarantee we'll always be on to assist. Please spread the word in-game, thank you!

Moved thread to Archetypes section 😃

Okay, SO! I'm gonna lock this thread for 2 reasons. 1) This thread is fairly old by this point, and has lead to confusion. It's not even the page 2 thread, but page 1! 2) On a related note, barring Bad Things, it looks like we're planning to release Page 3... TOMORROW! So put on your lab goggles, inflate your inner-tubes, clear some room on your badge shelf, and get ready to rock!

But Flea! Thank you, too 😃 And everyone else who posts here, and plays the game, and chats on discord. You all make this the best video game community out there!

This is all of my anxiety made manifest 😭 But, we're up to the task! If anything, the complaints we get from non-forum users will be a good yardstick for how to apply challenge settings in the future 🙂 (Or I'll just forward all the complaints as bug reports just to annoy @Cobalt Arachne, but don't tell him I said that!)

As an addendum to the above, I'm fairly sure you have to choose the "Vigilante" option, as the Hero option will be against Council. But I'm not 100% sure, so, grain of salt and all that. EDIT: Confirmed by @Voltor, who I unceremoniously ninja'd. My apologies 🙂

You can save your base info in a demorecored file, but as far as I'm aware, Homecoming does not support importing that info back into the game, and I am unaware of any plans to change that. That said, I'm not saying this idea's a nonstarter, it would just need a bit of work!

Moved to Suggestions and Feedback forum 😃

It's a giant glowing pillar that makes an alarm noise for 10 seconds, complete with countdown (like the Self Destruct power). The only way to miss it is if you're not looking and have your sound down =/ Though if you were in the last room of the Crey mission, you were probably dealing with a handful of Paragon protectors (including the new tougher one), so, I can see how/why you may have been distracted. Also, it's a heads up that there are things that can/will destroy you. It's a learning curve, and more than fair once you know what's going on.

The "Damage" in those only enhance straight up damage of an attack power, not +damage buffs, which are hard-coded as being unenhanceable. Someone else can explain it better than I, but apparently even trying really messes with the interaction between damage and resistance or something. So, no, slotting Dam/End into Assault or Build up won't increase the +Damage buff, it'll just decrease the endurance cost. In a similar vein, enhancing Acc/Rech/Threat into, say, Siphon Power, won't make it taunt or placate the target, as Siphon Power does not have that attribute. Putting Dam/Mez into Fireball won't make it mez targets on a hit. and so on.

It looks like distance fog was temporarily disabled, allowing you to see All The Things (that would render properly, anyway). I believe other users have reported similair occurrences. Nothing to worry about, but cool when it happens (AP looks really nice like that. Other zones... not so much).

IIRC the current plan is to have Exploration tip missions for Cim in page 4, but since p3 is still in beta, that's a way's off, and plans can change. As for "no better" way to get there... yeah, still gotta use Midnighters or the LFG-Q. I'm unaware if there's any plans to change that, but hey, who knows!

The LRSF wasn't "moved" per se. Ouro is simply offering the old version of the SF (ala Posi and Psyche when their TFs were revamped/replaced) with all the Heroes, and all at the original levels, before nerfs and the events of SSA 1/WWD.

Unless something changed, procs and globals should still work. But I would await dev confirmation on that, and whether or not they'll also restrict those for this play mode.

Well I feel attacked. I mean.. Let's try to keep the thread on-topic for ASF feedback, folks. There's a separate thread to discuss the advanced difficulty features aside from ASF; Also, be nice! thank you!

A big factor in people running the ASF will be for the new D-Synch enhancements. I see quite a few of these being highly sought-after, and folks wanting to +3 them (especially since the OTHER new hard thing, the Classic LRSF, disables set bonuses, I suspect Hami-Os and D-Synchs will be the new hotness to take the edge off there). Sure, you could try your luck on the AH, but I'd surmise they'd go for a lot, especially if there's an inverse correlation between one's patience and how much inf they have banked.

I have to remind myself that I don't get to be upset over people shitposting in a shitpost thread. I all but literally asked for this! Anyway, hope everyone enjoyed the teaser, because soon the real fun begins!

Cleaned up the nonsense, and moved to help and support. @Diantane, make sure you're posting in the proper section in the future, might help deter trolling. To everyone else (you know who you are), I expected better from you.
