  1. Loving the set. The Toxic Resist is nice, it's not to high, but gives it a little leeway. Aura of Insanity still doesn't accept ATO sets. Memento Mori I'm not worried if it does damage or not, but the old heal felt a little more useful than it is now. As someone else stated, it becomes either used for just big groups or to raise from death.
  2. I miss the adaptive recharge. No real point of casting it with no enemies around, so the adaptive recharge was nice. Bigger heal, bigger recharge. Don't notice the removal of damage. Never used it for damage anyways. Didn't mind the accuracy check before, but auto hit with no damage seems fine.
  3. Oh, Toxic resist added. That'll be nice. Hmmm...I wasn't having issues with Memento Mori as it was, but will have to go around dying now to see how it is. 🙂 Or was it maybe powerful the other way?
  4. Exactly. I joined during the first Winter Lord event as well and stayed until shut down. They were not the same. Don't get why people say "It's not what I knew" when I think "Well yeah, it's an MMO" I love that they continue to update it. Do I like every update? Nope. Did I like every update back with Paragon Studios? Nope. Still pretty much about picking those right attacks and button smashing. 🙂
  5. Haven't felt a mission really taking longer. Though, was playing a scrapper.
  6. I don't know. I'm seeing take 2 steps forward, 1 step back and I think...still going forward. Also, doesn't seem so bad since the few times I've tried for the badge it took some serious time.
  7. I will say, I didn't feel the lethal hole was as bad as others, but I do have the build with IOs (but I wasn't using any Destiny...so no Barrier). 2.5 - 3% Per Devour Psyche Buff (so Consume Psyche for the ATs I wasn't testing) could be enhanceable or not may be the way to do it as it wouldn't be just on one of the resist shield (not that I would be against it). Could be a lower Resist value on Psionic Shield or equal value on Impenetrable Mind (as I believe this power gives a small resist to Psychic...and Psychic and Toxic share the same IO bonuses usually).
  8. Oh, for sure. It's much like WP's T9. A power one wants to use in advance, but it's recharge is so long, one tries to save it.
  9. Ran some KW missions at 3/5 (I did use Alpha, Interface and Hybrid for passive only...no Destiny or Judgement Use) difficulty 4/8 seemed to much solo for my build (Note: I'm not one worried about being able to solo 4/8 and it may be the enemy groups for people who do say they can do it :p) Tried different slotting on AoI. Have to say using Cupid's for the set bonus seem to do better than 2 Slot Cupid, 2 ACC/MEZ HOs, Purple Confuse Proc (should've tried 3 Slot Cupid perhaps) for over all performance, but AoI may have done a bit better with the non set slotting. NOTE: Which btw...explains why I was wondering why I lost S/L Resist in a previous post *facepalm* forgot I had 3% S/L Resist from Cupid's. Think I was enjoying Cognitive Radial over my normal Degenerative Core Interface with AoI (did not try this with the non Cupid's slotting). Not sure I was feeling it was doing damage on the non mezzed targets, but maybe it's not supposed to if they're hit by the mez without being under it's effects? Maybe I just wasn't paying enough attention? That said, fun little bit of power. Going to say again, it doesn't take the ATO Sets when it does take damage sets, but I'm not likely to slot the set in there, as I'm feeling Cupid's is perfect for it myself. However, others may want those sets in there and they should be allowed I would think. I did fine with Devour Psyche. I'm sure, as I'm more likely to be in melee, to enjoy the PBAOE version over the cone version, I also think I was keeping the buffs up pretty well, so it's not like that was a big issue. I would rely on Memento Mori for the Heal. Other than wishing the set had some Toxic Resist (maybe in Devour Psyche) I've been enjoying the set.
  10. For me, it was the first heal I clicked, rather than just hit it and keep it on and hit it when I needed a heal and it was available. It was Instant Healing I feel got the least use tho.
  11. Just to respond to some of this... Cloak of Fear had it's end cost lowered to .26/s and Oppressive Gloom was always a free end cost that, like AoI, uses health instead. I have wondered why Dark Armor, being similar, would have better resists, but I wasn't 100% sure on if the differences are really that big.
  12. I can't say I like damage buff/ninja crit and you're right, sounds like something to keep to Ninjitsu. I'd go back to the standard Defense and I like the idea you have of putting a psi damage proc into something...doesn't have to be powerful. The AoI damage doesn't seem to be all that, seems to just be something just encase mez doesn't happen. So a little Psi Damage proc would be good and in theme with the armor.
  13. Aura of Insanity can still accept damage sets, but it won't take the Scrapper ATO sets. Edit: Checked out Stalkers and their ATOs don't work in them either. So going to assume (could be wrong) Brute and Tankers have the same issue.
  14. Did the Resists take a hit? Notice I used to be at 75% Smashing and now at the very least, my Smashing and Lethal are lower than they were, with lethal having been just under 65% and now at just over 61% with Smashing down to 73%
  15. I have to ask, what's the point of a 50% Damage Buff while out of combat? Or is this just a matter of the opening attack gets a damage bonus? If so, AoI may be triggering combat before you get use of that 50% bonus.
  16. Looks like the defense is fixed on Mask Presence. Just comparing it to other armor sets stealth toggles...I don't recall them giving double the defense while on, and half when attacking, it does help in getting hit less when stealth so it'll help avoid those AOEs. Just not sure if it's supposed to go this way as it's different than other, not that I'm against changing similar powers up between the sets.
  17. Gotta disagree. Plenty of violent shows are getting views. Reacher for example. This is anti Disney, anti MCU. Which there is, as either people are just really stupid, with the idea that "I don't want to do homework" being a thought of watching a show when it has movie connections, but damn, they'll watch every other show out there. Not every show is a hit (Echo and Secret Wars sucked...admittedly...imo) and there is some obvious choices they make that aren't going to sit well with the viewers. However, it's always males as the top viewers of their properties, but they act like men are the reason their choices fail. 😛
  18. What change in slotting did you do, because of lower defense? I would think one would generally slot the power the same.
  19. Looking closer at Mask Presence (Scrapper) it's giving 2.99 + 5.98 defense. 5.98 Defense is likely the right number, as that matched the numbers from other Armor's stealth power. I think the 2.99 + 5.98 is probably an error. And also, like Aura of Insanity.
  20. I get that. I've played multiple of the sets with no Fear or Confuse resist...so I get it.
  21. Don't get me wrong. I understand the desire for some of those other resists 🙂 Ooooh...if they're in the new Surge?
  22. Is the t9 mandatory? We made do without it all this time and the set has only gotten buffed here.
