This was soooo awesome. The pics are wonderful. Thank you.

I usually take the power (whatever power is offered, not just auras) when initially available, while leveling, and then respec in my 30s where I can shed the unwanted power. This way I get to experience it and see if it works with my play style and enhancements. Then I know specifically why I don't like it within that powerset and my build. That said, there are only a couple powers you have to take, after that there are so many pool powers as alternatives you can make that aura your own T3 or T4. I guess all this to say "what do you want the devs to change?"

I thought that there was a vanguard buff you could purchase with RWZ merits to protect or cure you from this? Nectanebo Cursebreaker, from the crafting tables by the base portal

I just ran "Who Will Die, part 2" and in the last mission my Catherine Wheel pet is unable to follow me through the portals, causing me to have to recast and then wait for a cool-down to finish the mission. Not a big deal, but if you were on a clocked run this will mess with it.

I am trying to decide if Fortunata Hypnosis' unique proc of chance to placate is worth placing in an AoE sleep power. If it procs will the entire mob awaken placated? or just some? and if just some will the aggro'd individuals cause the placated individuals to become aggro'd? Further, now that there is a deep sleep, I think mobs will stay controlled by sleep until either controlled by a second power or defeated by flytrap, vines or teammates. Am I analyzing this correctly? What are your thoughts?

Is this still accurate? If so, how or where do you go for this?

We are so glad you're home!

Some folks like a quieter server and knowing many of the other players, or at least recognizing them. In particular I prefer that the general chat, help and LFG messages aren't screaming past. As a personal preference you can choose your shards, you can even shard hop. You can invite other players to join you on a shard. Point is, the thing you want- higher population- can be found elsewhere. Go there. But please don't try to change the shard(s). There is NO reason to consolidate them.
