I don't understand the dislike over this set. I am having fun with it. As other's have noticed, this is similar to dark armor, just a newer, possibly improved, more well-rounded version of what Dark has currently on live. Side note, glad to see Dark Armor finally getting some love! Dark has an advantage on resistances. That's the downside for Psi as far as I can see it. I don't see them giving DDR to any other resist bases sets either. Everything else is basically pick your flavor. Instead of taking Cloak of Fear & Oppressive Gloom on my Dark, (at .6/s base End Cost mind you), you get Aura of Insanity, which has multiple mez types but all at 2.5 mag instead of 2 and no end cost, somehow. With the extra power pick, Psionics picks up an Absorb shield with slight boosts to regen/end. Precognition has a slight advantage over Cloak of Darkness. Equivalent Def totals and Auto power versus another toggle for Dark. And I think if I understand it correctly, Positional + Psionic defense covers most everything that Def All covers? Plus it looks like they are adding increased Psionic defense in the next build. Dark has Death Shroud, which I will miss on Psionics (Aura of Insanity does include some Dot damage but maybe not the same steady numbers, instead picking up extra defense with Impose Presence. Dark Regen is a massive heal and I'm glad it's getting an end redux, but I love Consume Psyche giving Heals and End. Suggestions/requests? I would like them to remove the unbalanced Lethal resistances or at least reduce the gap. Also, It's weird to me that they are plugging the toxic hole for Electric but giving PSI one. So can we plug that now instead of having to wait for a later date? For Impose Presence, can we get a higher bump on the first critter without dropping the value for the remainder? Also it's weird to have Ranged & Melee but no AOE defense. As I see slotting this, a high priority is going to be bonuses that provide S/L resistances which are generally going to also have bonuses for Melee/Ranged and not AOE. Also, for scrappers, how hard would it be to change the mechanics to allow them to choose Impose or Mask presence just like you are adding to Dark Regeneration/Obscure Sustenance?

Managed to catch some disappearing, am I missing something plot wise?

Not sure if this is the right location, but I was running a repeatable mission given by the Blackwing Liaison: Stop the UPA Get the bomb, Defeat Dumpster, mainly to test out Psionic Armor and rounding up the baddies on the second floor and they just started disappearing. Not as in stealthed, no bodies on the floor, just gone. I lost my herd 😭.

By the way, of course Lethal has weaker resistances...

As I try and figure out the best way to slot Memento Mori, shouldn't this set be able to slot Accurate Healing sets as well? Or is this some concern about Theft of Essence Chance for +Endurance?

Neither of the taunt auras on Psionic take Threat Duration sets, which seems to be an error. This is for Impose Presence & Aura of Insanity; and applies to both the Tanker & Brute versions. All other taunt auras currently on live take these sets. This includes the 2 auras Ice has and 3 that Dark has. Unless this is a reverse in direction and this has also been removed from some of the reworked defense sets in this patch. Also, just noticed that Aura of Insanity is a toggle that doesn't appear to use endurance. Not complaining mind you. Just interesting. Not just in the description, doesn't show in game under Combat Attributes. Similar power to Oppressive Gloom which has also mezzes and has a self damage, which has a very low endurance cost (.08/s) so maybe they just did away with it?

I had a chance to play around a bit and have a few questions. 1. Glittering Column doesn't show Avg damage, but it does take Ranged AOE. Guessing the only damage comes from Glitter Explosion? I tried with a couple of damage procs and I am seeing the damage and proc damage but where do I find that in the combat logs? 2. Multi-purpose missiles, the description isn't worded correctly. I get that one of the 2 locations will be near my target, Enemies near the target you have selected will be bombared (bombarded) with miniature missiles and Stunned. But the second part? Meanwhile, enemies near the location of have selected on the ground will be hit by shrill noisemaking rocket and become Terrified. Is this referring to the location I am casting it from? I'm having a hard time testing that, just due to finding mobs located within a easy range of each other. 3. All this Blasting-off up into the air and none of the mobs ever takes any fall damage? Not even a someone landing on a sharp rock?

I do like the change, just to confirm though, the 240 Max total recharge time, would still be able to be reduced by enhancements and global recharge correct? So 2 to 2:30 max recharge time depending on how I slot it?

I thought about that, but then why even give the vertical option and not make it a ground based teleport like Shield Charge? But, fine, gimme a 6 second QoL hover built in and I'll deal with the three jump limit and I won't question why Mystic Flight gets unlimited jumps. What can I say, my 2 favorite travel powers are Superspeed and Teleport. 😉

Every time I select this power, I remember why I don't take it. Basically a clone of Superspeed, but instead of phase shift and the added Momentum vertical movement from Issue 27, Speed of Sound is stuck with a broken teleport power. Why do I plummet like a stone tanker in Granite when I Jaunt up in the air? For the love of Mike, can we please get a built-in hover mechanic? The days of having to take hover with any other teleport power are long gone. The base hover time even increased from 6 seconds to 15 seconds for every other power, but nothing for Jaunt. Yes, I can use binds, but there was a reason many teleporters took hover back in the day. I know big changes to Experimentation would take a Power Pool update, but for a stretch goal, can we get rid of the 3 jump limit? Speed of sound, with it's limit of 3 jumps actually had me convinced that the Mystic Flight had the same limit of 3 jumps for the longest time. Then on my way to stop by and see Ada after the 2 minute warning, I was shocked to see that I could jump on an on and on. So short term, please keep me from dropping like a granite tanker. Long term, release the shackles! No jump limits!

Hi, I had no issues yesterday. Saw there was a patch and reloaded the HC Launcher. I can log-in, and choose a server, but when I do I get this message. This is my version I figured out how to check for updates on the launcher, but confirms this is the newest version. I guess I need to run the patcher? No clue on where that is or what I need to do. Anyone able to help?

When this came out I had it on a couple of alts but hated that it didn't take sets. But I've been on a few teams and seeing it in action, makes me want to give it another shot. I kind of figured that by now, it would have been adjusted to take sets, but sadly no. Is there any way we can get a very minor debuff added to it so we can slot one of the following sets in the power? Any of the Accurate To-Hit Debuff, Accurate Defense Debuff or Stuns sets would seem to fit the power thematically.

Can we get the option, when creating a level 50 recipe, to either create the LVL 50 OR the attuned version of the recipe? You already got the drop, it's max level, why should you have to pay a catalyst penalty? If you are taking a LVL 25 and attuning it, then I can understand that you should have to use a catalyst, because you are potentially boosting an enhancement to it's max level, and yes, maybe you should pay a catalyst fee to do that. I've seen the suggestions of crafting the recipe then selling the enhancement, then buying the attuned version at the same cost to save money on the catalyst, but this never seems to work out for me and I seem to overspend trying to get the enhancement. There is a breaking point where it does make sense to just craft and then catalyst, but frequently it's a money sink. I end up with a lot of yellow recipes, but sometimes it seems like they are useless. Yes, you can use converters, at about 650k influence for 10 and try and convert them to a rare, but maybe I'd like to use that Multi-Strike or Doctored Wounds on my lowbies in the 20-30 range. For instance, on this recipe Multi-Strike Acc/Dam Cost to craft 490,400 inf Cost of materials: usually under 5-10k Cost to catalyst: ~ 1 million Total Cost to craft & catalyst 1.5 million Cost currently on the market (avg of last 5 sales): ~ 572k So I end up crafting the recipe and never using it or selling the recipe for 5k at a vendor. I'd even be happy to pay extra for the crafting price to make it attuned, maybe an additional 50% up to 100%, if there is too much push back on doing it for the normal crafting price. I also would like to consider doing the same thing for any recipes that is capped out at level 30 or 40, but I'm trying to reduce the freak-out to my overall suggestion. 😆

Ok, just hoping there was another answer. Thanks for the quick response!

So I am pretty sure the answer is no, but I've been gobsmacked before, so I'm asking just to make sure because what I do now drives me nuts lol. Is there anyway you can take a level 50 enhancement and use a catalyst to convert it to the attuned version, without slotting it in an existing level 50 character? For instance I have some lvl 50 PVP enhancements in my base. If I want to take my brand new level 10 brute, fresh off a couple of DFB runs and grab a few out of the bin, convert them, and then slot them, is there a way to do that? Currently, my process is this: 1 Drag out a 50. 2. Spend either influence on a few unslotters to remove existing enhancements, add the ones I want to attune, then use more unslotters to remove and then put the original enhancements back. OR occasionally when I have a backlog that I want to attune, I get said 50, create a 2nd or 3rd build. Spend time leveling it up to 50, slotting everything attuning everything, then doing a respec so I can then remove all of the attuned enhancements, and then change my build back so I'm not surprised when I log in the next time. To clarify further, these are enhancements never placed on a character, just drops that I've crafted and stored. I'll gladly be embarrassed at my lack of knowledge, again, if there is another way to do this 😁.
