I would proceed to completely ignore a set with bonuses like that, especially in powers that are appealing now because they do things well with only one or two slots.

Some of the powers in your list don't accept enhancement sets because there's literally nothing to enhance. What enhancement types would Phase Shift, Assault, and Burnout even take?

Inb4 name gets generic’d for copying an ingame character >.>

Unfortunately Zar is no longer with us. 😔

Well, looks like I found my new frontrunner for today's "bad ideas as answers to nonexistent problems" thread.

For me, BS's arc is fast enough that I don't see it as a drag, and I get a few merits for my trouble. Of course, I almost never go with patron pools anymore, so that may have something to do with it.

I brought this up during beta testing when I got got by a waypoint. Coming from outside the base, any waypoint inside the base appears to simply point at a random spot below the ground, and vice versa for waypoints outside the base while you're in the base. Yes, I understand it's a side effect of the base actually being connected to the rest of the map now, but if it's throwing off people who've been playing the game and doing the content for a long time, it's probably even more confusing to those who haven't. Waypoints seemingly directing you to nonexistent locations is bad UX. It's annoying on other maps (especially Skyway) where the mission door is in a tunnel or something, but it's especially annoying in RWZ because the way waypoints are used to navigate that zone has fundamentally changed.

Accolades.

The reason this isn't going to be enabled on Homecoming has less to do with functionality and more to do with the sheer database size. There might be an API-connected alternative one day, but the current version of CIT is way too resource-heavy to run on HC.

I have a few thousand PAs sitting around between a few characters. I've never bought anything more than the 10 PA costumes with them, but I've also never sold any of them. I'm just lazy.

Playing with enemy names and health bars always showing is really helpful. Yes, the heavies have a different FX below 25% but it's not immediately obvious and doesn't really tell you how much HP they have left, so it's not useful as anything other than a general "hey, watch out" warning.

Which set(s) are you trying to slot? The power accepts Blaster archetype sets, universal damage sets, melee AoE damage sets, healing sets, and endmod sets, but it won't accept endurance reduction enhancements because the power costs no endurance.

No, it's a closed alpha/beta server.

That wasn’t a Homecoming change, it happened back on live.

The manifests used by third party launchers are updated via a different process and can sometimes lag several hours behind. Tequila isn’t officially supported anymore and at some point won’t work at all, might as well get used to the HC launcher.

lol You necroed a two and a half year old thread for that? 2.5/10, needs more effort

People insisting XP/inf while teamed used to be split based on damage dealt.

TL;DR: still double the population from before the announcement, but about 70% of peak numbers from early January. If the current trend continues we will be back at pre-announcement player numbers by June.

I'm not entirely convinced OP isn't trolling, looking at post history they disappeared for like three years and then came back recently. Every thread they've started since then has been an absolute banger.

People don't play hardmode because it is actually difficult and requires high levels of coordination to be consistently successful without wanting to suck start a shotgun and I'd wager the vast majority of this game's players don't actually want a challenge.

I said it on Discord, but unique enhancements that can only be obtained through PvP merits or bought/traded on the AH might be another good incentive to earn PvP merits - think things like universal debuff sets. People will, naturally, complain that they have to go into a PvP zone to get them, but... they don't have to if I can sell them my drops. I'd be more than happy to have someone else pay me to PvP.

Nope. I'm more than happy to let other players subsidize my builds so they can get their PA costumes. You don't wanna run the content, that's fine, but everything about hard mode stuff is entirely optional.

Yeah, go ahead and wander into a 4* PuG where no one talks in team chat and let me know how that one goes.
