Definitely this. So much build up with the Mendors and the Dream Doctor/Rularuu and so on, it'd be nice to see all the pieces put together and resolved. They wisely changed their mind about traitorous Lady Grey and brought in someone else, I can't remember who.

There was also the mirror to Scirocco's arc with Manticore losing it after Sister Psyche dies, finding comfort in Countess Crey's arms and going full Vigilante. Maybe someday!

The option already exists to disable incarnate powers when setting up a TF, so, we're good? So far my experience in running hard mode Aeon and Imperious has been pretty challenging with lots of deaths for strong teams, so I don't think Barrier is overpowered at all here, and using a team defensive ability at the right time to try and keep people alive counts as "strategy" in my opinion.

ah snap, makes sense now, thanks bud!

I picked up 2 Vanguard merits for completing the second mission of Market Crash last night; is that correct?

120, like a n00b

Level 50 enemies are the elite of the elite, pulling the strings to topple countries, invading our dimension, planning the extinction of humanity, or threatening the very existence of our universe. I don't agree with lumping Skulz and Hellions in with them.

There's some good ones on this list 😉

I was looking for more options for Negative Energy attacks, saw the Void and Temporal Blasts, and thought why not a Dark Matter Rifle Blast set that brings a side of lethal damage as the dark matter shreds your enemies over time. Beam rifle animations with model options for Void Hunter Rifle temporary power, Dimensional Grounding Ray (Kahn TF), Goldbricker Sonic Cannon (Aeon SF). Dark Matter Blast Dark Matter Bolt - minor negative energy/lethal, negative energy DoT Dark Matter Blast - moderate negative energy/lethal, negative energy DoT Dark Matter Torrent - cone moderate negative energy/lethal, negative energy DoT Aim - Self +tohit +damage Dark Matter Beam - sniper, superior negative energy/lethal, negative energy DoT Dark Matter Collapse - PBAoE, minor negative energy/lethal, negative energy DoT, Foe Knockup Dark Matter Crush - hold, moderate negative energy/lethal, negative energy DoT Velocity - Foe -recharge, -movement speed, Self +recharge +movement speed Dark Explosion - targeted AOE, extreme negative energy/lethal, negative energy DoT Dark Matter Manipulation Dark Matter Pin - minor negative energy DoT, immobilize Dark Matter Bash - moderate negative energy/lethal, negative energy DoT Build Up - Self +tohit +damage Dark Matter Smash - high negative energy/lethal, negative energy DoT Matter Collision - PBAOE, minor negative energy/lethal, negative energy DoT, stun Microwave - Foe -regen -recovery, Self +regen +recovery Dark Phase - Self phase shift Collider - PBAOE Foe blind, confuse Dark Matter Barrage - extreme negative energy/lethal, negative energy DoT

Dr Aeon has a neato version of this with technology-origin villains, who can do a little optional content that, while very cool, isn't required to complete any piece of the SF.

What about origin-based buffs that adds a little something based on your origin? In the form of temporary power buffs granted from above-suggested origin Tips, or even unique IO set proc? A small amount, up to maybe 2% of additional damage or damage resist based on origin: Magic - dark energy Mutant - lethal Science - fire Technology - energy Natural - smashing

We could always write our own origin-specific stories in AE...

To my knowledge an IO set can't boost specific powers; what you'd get is just an overall speed or range boost.

I reference this one https://archive.paragonwiki.com/wiki/Mission_Architect_Unique_Maps for unique maps myself, though it's missing some that Homecoming may have added. I think the drilling machines are a mob though, and not a map feature. If memory serves, they have to be defeated during the Patron arcs so they're more of a destructible object. Good luck!

I would think greater than the other IO set stealth ratings, Pool Stealth power, and Super Speed, but less than Pool Invisibility and any AT concealment powers like Illusion, or Stalker Hides. My data search puts that about 45'.

3-slot: 20% resist -fly, 20% resist -speed, 20% resist -recharge, 20% jump height the -speed and -recharge was intended to be another way to say slow resistance

Speed of the Olympian Your speed is the stuff of legends. You move faster and farther, recover endurance faster, and are harder to see and more difficult to hit. Movement speed 53% run speed 53% jump speed 53% fly speed 33% tp range Movement speed/endurance reduction 33.1% run speed 33.1% jump speed 33.1% fly speed 26.5% tp range 33.1% endurance reduction Movement speed/endurance reduction/endurance modification 26.5% run speed 26.5% jump speed 26.5% fly speed 15.9% tp range 26.5% endurance reduction 26.5% endurance modification Stealth Unique, cannot be used with other stealth IOs Set bonuses 2-slot: 4% recovery 3-slot: 20% resist -fly, 20% resist -speed, 20% resist -recharge, 20% jump height 4-slot: 2.5% defense melee, ranged, AOE

and an alternate to spit and vomit all the powers!

at least you get the mez protection bubble!

well I wanted it to be playable haha the worst-worst would be whip melee/force field

Worst melee? Whip melee/kinetics mastermind, no pets. Kind of like the Guardian AT. Pool powers to suit? I have considered this AT myself, but I haven't had time to put it into practice.

looooovvvve the Eden Trial atmosphere. wish there was more to do in there

Quoted for emphasis. More people doesn't necessarily mean a better playing experience for everyone. If servers are merged, what happens to our stacks of FAT LOOT we have in our sg bases? What happens to things on the auction house? Not being snarky, genuinely curious.

I've always loved Croatoa

If you don't give enemies at least 1 ranged attack, they will always be worth less experience. The game knows you are intentionally gimping them and reacts accordingly.
