I would hardly call jumping around and using taunt a lot of effort. People would herd and dumpster dive, then go AFK.

AFK farming was around since the game launched. There were several portal maps with Freakshow and Council that were farmed long before AE came into the picture.

Someone can use magic sneezing powder on him. I am sure someone can feed him a magic bowl of beans too.

Without knowing any specifics, I have often found the best thing to do in situations like this is to let the person keep talking so that they dig their own grave. Being a developer does not make someone immune to being a jerk. Eventually, their words will reveal everything.

If he did, would they be "super"?

Sad yet so true at the same time.

My namesake is an alien with a Natural origin. Her species is inherently more durable and stronger than humans. She is just born that way. 😁

Yes. I have already expressed my opinion on the matter, only to get attacked by you for some unknown reason. I am sorry that I do not agree with your idea or concept. Again, what I am reading here is a solution looking for a problem and attacking others is certainly not endearing you to anyone. Your idea simply is not needed in my opinion. Feel free to disagree.

You will note the words "diminishing returns" do not appear anywhere in that.

To be quite honest, I have no idea what you are talking about here. I never mentioned anything specific diminishing returns in any post I have made here. Calling me or my opinions "dumb" is certainly not going to accomplish anything.

I just do not see a need for any kind of change to how defense works, sorry. As they say, this reads to me like a solution looking for a problem.

I do not see it as dysfunctional at all. Climbing the mountain to overcome obstacles is part of the journey and reaching the peak is the reward. People are already making reasonable choices with how they build their character.

Well, that is kind of the point of what I was getting at. Getting better and more powerful is something to look forward to and strive for as you progress.

Why? What incentive is there to progress then if you are getting worse instead of better?

I will still believe it when I see it. Goldfarmers back in the day did not have that kind of inventory to sell.

I still find it very difficult to believe there were people with "trillions" of influence. As I said, I will believe it when I see it. Even the inf selling sites back in the day did not have those kinds of funds.

I find it a little difficult to believe personally. With the influence cap, you are talking about people supposedly having hundreds of accounts with max character slots all filled with alts that each have the 2 billion influence cap. I will believe it when I see it.

I think this is just a bit of an exaggeration.

The game is (and has been for a long time) already polluted with visual FX spam and coloring. What is more going to hurt at this point? 😁

Correct me if I am wrong, but farm missions are created by individuals and played by others so does that not make them shared end-user content? As to the general question, it would be great if missions could easily get ported over to the game outside of AE. I seem to recall this is quite a lot of work to do though. I could be wrong though.

I love the Stargate franchise and have been a fan of it since the original film. It is sad that MGM does not want to do anything with it, especially in the age of franchise domination ala MCU, Star Wars etc. Atlantis needs a better ending in my opinion. I would love to see SGU come back and give that story a proper ending as well. The whole concept of the message buried in the cosmic background radiation was so interesting. There are so many loose ends to tie up with that series.

Love this idea!

I would love to be able to build something like the Arena of Sompek over in STO. The enemies get buffed each level, so the more levels you defeat, the harder it gets. You keep going until an entire team wipe stops the event. Something like this would be challenging here, especially with customized AVs.
