Part way through but need to go to bed. Overall, this is easily one of the best arcs in the game. I've had a clean run of it so far (but I spotted some things I want to try to see if I can break it). Doc Buzzsaw's dialogue is absolutely ace and she now stands higher than ever as the best character in the game. Couple of teeny tiny typos: Pierce behaved a bit strangely here. She was aligned correctly when she spawned in but rotated twice. As a final note for now.

I think the idea is it still has to be earned, but it now doesn't matter when it's earned. So it's not that level 1s should be able to use the portal, it's that they can.

I think you left out the Mercy Island placement from the patch notes: Dunno if I love the placement - it doesn't feel like a natural corner to me. Would a small platform tucked into the dead end up ahead with it on be possible at this point?

Evil Epaulets on the right shoulder shows both. The left shoulder shows just the one correctly.

The late-life development of quality over quantity was starting to show as the legacy servers came to an end. But the game is still dragging around a lot of content with the opposite mindset. It's pretty clear that HC are following suit. The new blueside arc on beta is full of surprises (yet to try the redside one, but it's the one thing that has me most excited). I'd love to see every arc given its own flair. It's just a huge undertaking.

They're gone from world vendors but can still be purchased in SG bases. I don't remember the last time I slotted a TO, though. Certainly wasn't in the last decade.

I'm not sure what you mean. Nothing has been removed, the update only makes lower level SOs more accessible. To my knowledge, nothing has changed in terms of pricing. If they're unaffordable, TOs and DOs are still available for the short term, just as before.

For an empty cube with one portal to Atlas Park: LINES-83

Just tried this. It works.

I don't suppose you could put some paragraphs in that post at all? It's very hard to read as one big text but your thoughts and feedback sound interesting.

No. I've tried a lot. The proc rate should be 11% (according to Bopper, who I trust with numbers), but it never fired off at all as far as I could tell.

Overriding both of those worked for me.

In the new launcher structure? Have you checked in the i24 folder? I don't know the names of the energy melee sounds specifically (because nobody knew how to name things back in 2004) but I think they'll be in there.

Have you given it a go, ThunderCAP? You can easily ignore the TF>ET combo and still be very effective - more than on live from what I gather. The mechanic doesn't have to affect you if you don't want it to, and you'll still be buffed.

The p2w base teleporter recharge time is now 10 minutes.

There's no need to get the accolades on all the maps. The one to Atlas plants you on the doorstep of the tram, where you're in spitting distance of the TUNNEL portal too. That's a lot of zone access right there.

Ah yeah, that's what it is. I see it now.

I haven't figured out why, but often Energy Focus 'passes through' the first attack and allows you to use it for another attack. ~1 in 5 times.

They are still interruptible, yes.

The new base portal portal is very nice. I think all the powers could still stand to shave off a little bit off cooldown, and the 10s activation time still feels excessive on some of them to me. But I really like that we have so many organic options for getting around the city.

I think you're right. I just started watching out for this and didn't see it proc. I thought that would be an amazing place to have it, but it's just not happening.

Bigger issue I'm having: Edit: Wrote that in real-time which is why the tense is all over the place. 😅

Playing casually on an SO build with the ATOs. Honestly it feels really good. Bashing down single targets is really fast paced and the TF>ET combo feels good. It's much slower to chew through groups, but I think that's how this is meant to feel. Power Crash feels a little too feeble to me so far. Maybe on higher difficulty when groups are tighter I'll feel it more, especially with the additional targets from Energy Focus. So happy to have this. ❤️

Enjoying this a lot! Had some minor weirdness between chapters four and five. I've not finished it yet, but one thing stood out Other than that, this is fabulous so far. The depth of new lore feels really good to start dipping into and Piecemeal's dialogue on the Freakshow is constantly delightful!

The cooldown is 6 seconds unenhanced. I've been making copious use of it and hardly noticed it.
