Okie ... *sigh* As long as it is OFF by default and needs to be turned ON. I have had issues with someone from the Forums with whom I had a heated exchange find me in the game. And well ... basically stalk and harass me. My forum handle does not match my game handle for that very reason. I had something similar happen on another website, and they figured out my email and home address, which were nowhere on the site. I will reference the recent Hami thread where we were trying to solve an issues on Excel with the raid and perhaps another server. The "just play on another server" response that was given is not a solution. I shouldn't have to make an alt account to have privacy and anonymity. That is not a solution. See above. Just because I want anonymity doesn't mean I have things to hide. No conspiracy theories here. Due to IRL work, I am very much in front of and engaging with people. As an extreme introvert with other mental health issues, this is so draining. I crave privacy outside of work. I am fine with it as long as it is something YOU have to TURN ON. I shouldn't have to turn it off.

I use no more than two slots each. Set and proc choice depends on build.

I was going to make this same suggestion. All the Epic Archetypes are pretty amazing To add: A Peacebringer is self-reliant - self-heals, etc. A Warshade relies on the foes around Both have pros and cons ... The Peacebringer But wait there is more! 2 self heals in the secondary - 3 when you go dwarf self rez - secondary endurance discount - secondary ally heal - primary Wait! still more! fly covered - one form and also in the secondary group fly - ok, I'll be honest that I never take this ... but it is there Stealth Teleport - Dwarf form 🙂 ...still more! In TriForm,... 6 AoE to cycle through ... gasp ... and cycle through quickly. On a team ... some kind of wonderful You get your first form early, Nova—basically a Flying Ranged Blasting Platform. I have a Human/Nova form that I use for low-level content. still around good The dwarf form comes at level 20. It is a solid tank and highly mez-resistant. There is no taunt aura, just a single target plus those around him, but that is okay. A Human/Dwarf is so nice for midlevel content. LightForm ...unstoppable. Nice. Can become perma depending on the build ... and a pet ...kinda As with ALL epic archetypes, there are a ton of options, so that takes a time investment, which is what you are looking for. I spent about a year on mine. It's the only character I have that is fully kitted out in all available build options. The only version I don't have is all human. To access powers and forms .... you can build macros. Sure. But since LIVE I have used in-game keymapping and it works great

Exactly. Due to the nature of my IRL job, I am all about future-proofing. Good for when all servers are busy

Absolutely. You can absolutely talk about the benefits of playing on Indom. I did not discount. I can certainly say that you are not providing a true solution. Because you are are not. MSR on Indom (at least when I was there) was switched to the instance a number of times. No complaints. Maybe that should be removed. No real need for it. I also mentioned that it would be nice to have this already in place when all servers are hopefully busy.

I started on Indom when I first found out the game came back a few years ago. So sure ... let's talk Indom I dedicated myself to building my base, my four original mains, giving in to alt-ism, and developing a group of people to run with. Things slowly dwindled, however. Last year, I was part of a big project at work and was left with no game time for a few months. I was so excited when the project ended and I could finally log in! I logged a character into my base, made dinner, and did a few other things. Came back about 30 minutes later ... to nothing in chat. I mean nothing in all channels. No one responded to LFG On a Friday at 8 p.m., 10 people were on Indom. The next few days were not any better. I never see any of my group online now, maybe they will return Broke my heart to migrate to Excel ... but Indom left me Your response, in truth, is server elitism and doesn't help solve the problem. Yes, it seems to just be Excel, but if more players return, will it spread to other servers? Maybe. I want all the servers to be in yellow and red ... this is not the way

This exactly. On Indom, a few years ago, our normal Riad leader did not show up, so I stepped in on the fly. No text macros, typing everything. Mind you, we still did the two-step process—so tracking mitos for everyone, tracking griefers, etc. Oh, and organizing the individual teams—lots of work. This is why I am always impressed with how @Oklahoman and @Laucianna run it. Smooth

Thank you for bringing this up, because I often do some of your iTrials pre-Hami 😛 Also, too much focus was on other things. If I miss out in the Abyss, I will often do the one later in the Hive. It is not a Zerg, and they do a round of mito clearing, then onto Hami. In a half hour? Maybe two rounds, sometimes only one round.

Back on topic. These are the essential points as I see them. But mainly having to get there in time. I used to get there 10-15 minutes prior. then 30....then 45. It is well run by both and worth the time. League banter is something I enjoy, not an issue for me Also ...instructions also come through the Request Channel.

Yes, please. When I was primarily on Indom, the MSR was switched to the Instance for a while because it interfered less with in-zone activities. Also, we started running themed events like an all MM MSR ... The smaller map AND the closer location of the Hospital was nice Trolling during Hami and MSR existed even on Indom ... so there is that.

Or can we sell them? Most of my characters would not benefit from them. Happy to sell or give them to someone

My initial thought was no for this reason

I did not take it that way at all. I listened to NPR segment and just instantly thought about what Coh does.\ Just thought I would ask

He also gave us Enhancement Diversification ...

I was not posting this as a negative about our game. Just looking to promote how we are able to accommodate people so they can play.

https://www.npr.org/2024/04/23/1197964005/the-indicator-from-planet-money-the-last-of-us-accessibility-gaming-04-23-2024 "Gaming provides entertainment and community for billions of people worldwide. However, video games haven't always been accessible to those with disabilities. But this is changing. Today, in the next installment of our series on the business of video games, we explain how accessibility has become an increasingly important priority for game developers and how advocates pushed them to this point." I heard this on NPR this morning, and it made me think about how accessible our game is. The keymapping in-game is beefy The ability to write macro might help. Any thoughts? If it is.... how do we let people know?

On a 2* Yin. Done soooo many of those. In the final reactor room, I clicked the glowies. Like as soon as I got there..... *facepalm Not sure what I was thinking

Dear old friends

My roll gave me a Scrapper Rad/Ice Loved this roll. Rarely do I go scrapper. Never did Rad melee But ... have an Ice tanker as a main and love Ice Armor. I did random costumes for a bit, like what I ended up with. ... In stealth, all you see is the aura that truly supports her name. Thank you, @Troo . This@Troo this never fails to give an alt that I love.

Not for this. I understand your perspective.

I think we have a standing one....a seated one would be nice.

Also consider all the different music for all the zones and areas within them ...

Currently on a Rad/ Ice and it does just fine

You may have to turn off your Ourobos and then back on...
