MoG can also counter end issues or sapping with +Recovery. As @Koopak pointed out, maybe swap the Fast Healing and Reconstruction slotting.

debateable. in my opinion Energy Melee on stalkers is not "better than it ever was".

+1 😉

gonna start sharing costume files with posts Monkee.costume

Anyone else wish we could have this collar without the backpack?

this I have done

Lots of great comments even where folks disagree. Procs seem to increasingly get discussed and promoted. (procs, proc builds & proc monsters) Folks invest time and resources building testing researching; IF adjustments are on the road map, could players get a heads up. or even a hint at potential changes? If things like turning non-damage/low-damage powers into major damage dealers or avoiding the Rage crash by using procs are working as intended, confirmation from the HC team would be helpful. In-game descriptions can definitely be 'lacking'. This could be an easier area to address than implementing sweeping changes and probably should be done regardless.

yikes

I could be misremembering but weren't changes made, beta'd and scraped?

I think you've reiterated my point where the intended gimmick might not be the way some folks want to play a set.

While this makes sense, the practical application might need to include that players may already have some pieces of a set or are doing some converting on their own. I'm not sure where you crafting or converting is concentrated, but I've found "convert as little as possible across more enhancements" yields better overall results. (I can elaborate) Example: Rather than shoot for exactly 6 specific enhancements. I'll convert 20 enhancements and likely end up with 3 complete sets or very close.

Is there a list of individual Proc outliers?

Seems accurate. It seems plausible that folks don't like the existing combos because they don't mirror the way we play. Memorizing someone else's vision for the right attack chain.. bleh.. puke.

Accepting the fact that some folks like combos & some folks do not is a good starting place. I've read the first couple pages and will muscle through the rest. It seems many valid points have been made regarding why some folks don't like some combo mechanics. Two points: #1) Myself, and it seems others, dislike a combo mechanic or gimmicks that essentially force players to do something or penalize players for not doing something. #2) I dislike forcing gimmicks or new combo mechanics on existing power sets that don't have them. (just make a friggin' new powerset) I don't begrudge existing combo sets. I haven't seen folks out there insisting that Dual Blades or Staff get revamped and lose the combos, but I do see folks saying some set doesn't have a combo, we should add one. Why is that?

Maybe answered your own question. Besides, PvP deviates enough from regular content that it's tough to get folks interested in having to learn a second game inside the game. Folks just playing the same 3 or 4 builds is kinda boring. I spent a week in RV getting all the badges on a dozen or so characters and didn't see another player. (Indom & Ever)

FYI never ever have I chased movement bonuses. If I wanted to both jump far and run fast, I'd just take two travel powers. But I have a button to toggle travel on and off maybe that's somehow not the case for everyone..

Valid point. Is that as intended or broken? I think arguments could be made for both sides (as we've seen).

and so it came to pass..

oh boi. the only change that is guaranteed, is that there will be change.

Makes sense. When folks stop posting for help and bugs with the new launcher, I'd add it. The new launcher includes Paragon Chat?

With the current popularity of procs, is the reining in of their effectiveness still in the works? I believe this was mentioned a while back and folks would likely appreciate a heads up. Nothing like putting time and effort into something that is taken away. Sure procs are currently a bit broken (is this debatable?). Maybe a timeline? example: "To be addressed but not soontm"

@KaizenSoze correct. that said, it should behave the same, shouldn't it? rather than differently?

this happen to anyone else? maybe I missed an announcement.

it is discretionary. there is inevitable bias and preferential treatment at play, this includes the combining of topics. as well as deletion without explanation. is this how the Discord works? (taking bets to see how long this post lasts)

@esaku will be taken soon
