    This is a pretty substantial indirect nerf to the Stalker's Guile: Recharge/Chance to Hide proc, and also indirectly hurts Placate powers, the latter of which are already unpopular due to how easy they are to get knocked out of, even by the enemy you're targeting with it. I suggest the proc and Placates lose their "Cancel On Damage" Flag, for the 'Hidden' portion of the effect, especially if Placate is expected to be used aggressively on the new SoAs.

    Agreed. The way this looks is, a stalker in combat that has this slotted in assassin's strike and goes into hide, will now come right back out of hide without being able to get the critical

     

    Currently, when I am fighting on my stalkers the assy strike will hit, crit and chance to rehide. If it procs I hide and the second attack is another crit from hide.

     

    With this change, in combat, I will be taking damage and hide will be cancelled, so I will not get the follow up crit.

     

    If this is accurate it is a substantial nerf to stalker damage output.

     

    Look, HC team, I have been largely understanding and supportive of changes previously, but this proposed patch is too far in many areas.

     

    Really, I'm hoping this gets rethought.

    Sorry but Bonfire is changed to behave like every other source of AoE continuous KB does with a KB -> KD. It either shouldn't be so strong with that, or all the other KB's should be stronger. 

    Your opinion and not the point of this thread, we give feedback and not debate each other on the finer points of opinions.

     

    On topic, if this change is global, it's ill advised, from my perspective. Leave primaries with. Bonfire as they were.

     

    I'll wait for official reply.

    I just tested this on a fire controller and it's much weaker there as well.  It looks like a global nerf contrary to the release notes.  

    If this is a global nerf to bonfire, I have a huge issue with that. If this is as intended, I don't know if I want to log back in any longer; I just don't feel good about this one and I've been one of the crowd that has been pretty understanding of previous adjustments.

     

    Yeah, it may seem like a tiny thing, but the feeling on this one is not good and primaries like fire control were not overpowered with this power as it was. This reduction in power, if global and not a mistake, will make fire control primaries significantly less... everything.

     

    I'll wait to hear more before making decisions and hope it was not intended to be global, but if it is.... Too far.

  4. Psionic tornado - at 40s I just won't take this one now.

     

    Hurl boulder - at this end cost I will remove this from tray and it's a mule/or I won't take it.

     

    Bonfire - if the proc rate is noticably lower, the one blaster I have this on will likely drop the power and get shelved. If this change is on all versions ... Well, that's a large enough issue that I would shelved more toons.

     

    Salt crystals - I skip this on all versions for one reason, this one power is nearly useless as is. A higher cost of use with less benefit doesn't change that, I'll still skip it. I would recommend fixing sleep as a theme. The only version worth taking in group settings is the one that pulses.

    Great. My comment was that at launch we couldn't do that so the bosses were harder. The comment you are quoting came about because the individual I was commenting to said that was back in Issue 0 (Beta) that we could not have multiple armor toggles from the same set active at once and that after launch we could always use all our armor toggles (except for Dark per this person), and I was pointing out that it wasn't until quite some time after launch that we still could not do so. (Edit again: I don't really care when the ability to run all our toggles was granted to us. In this instance, I only care that after launch until whichever issue was posted, we could not do so. That is my point.)

     

    All good, not disagreeing with you 😊 just mentioning is was issue 3 they had allowed multi toggle and changed the rooting while running protection.

    Am pretty sure all of them? I mained a Dark/Dark Scrapper, and could only use 1 active armor at a time. I could use Dark Embrace for Smash/Lethal/Negative. Or I could use Obsidian Shield for mez protection. Or I could use Murku Cloud for Fire/Cold/Energy. Made fighting Tsoo spawns of Yellow Inkmen, Dragon Inkmen, and Green Inkmen rather frustrating.

     

    I played with friends that played Invulnerability, and they also only had 1 active armor at a time. (Though Invulnerability also had the benefit of auto-powers.)

    By issue 3 they had updated to where multiple toggles could be active, for example invulnerability and fire tanks could have all armor toggles running. For example @Kruunch had the definitive invuln build then, which hit 90% to everything on SOs.

  7. Is one of you using a confuse power?

     

    Is one of you logged out for longer, causing more bars of 'experienced'?

     

    Might be interesting to conduct test cases, where one MOB is arrested in different ways to test exp gain, such as one person arrests while the other is passive, switch arrestor, both contribute, etc.

  8. Kin/elec defender.

     

    Not only can it hit defense caps, perma hasten with ease, hit damage caps, never run out of end, not need travel powers... it turns your team into a wrecking ball.

     

    On top of that it saps incredibly.

     

    Fake nems, crey PPs, Malta, carnies, freak tanks, tsoo sorcs, anything that has a toggle... They all just stand there staring at you.

    I heard you like to troll.   But melee Regen no, it's been nerfed, nut kick, punched in the face, hot grease spilled on it, lit on fire, nerfed one more time, then gave one tiny small pat on the head.

     

    Sentinel Regen, which was made by players back on hidden servers with new player made Sentinel class. That's pretty decent. (So is Sentinel Willpower)

     

    Nerf Regen.
