sub-optimal

as long as I'm getting a 'like' 'thumbsup' or 'thanks' out of this, that's all that really matters. 😉

Coding 'drop item' 'roll item' may not be super easy but more likely doable than impossible. We totally want this as a way to bring more value to useless drops and increase the overall value of HOs in-game.

@The_Warpact yep. New options are likely the issue. @Cipher may be of some assistance at their convenience.

maybe not the best choice for pvp

This could be the better use of dev time to clean up some of what doesn't work correctly. The black market needs to support experienced players as well as new ones. Allowing more than 10 items at a time to be interacted with could be counter productive as would the ability to interact with the same amount faster. Just sayin.

@Neiska there is a bunch of new stuff about to drop. Those are the efforts to support what players want I am referring to. Is it slightly ambiguous, yes. There are choices and consequences.

maybe you missed my earlier reply. "Just acknowledging the 'meta' and the efforts going into supporting it." maybe you missed to original post fine print. not all players play the same or want the same things you @Neiska are the one bringing the 'tell people how to play', and projecting that on me.. is not cool pal. irony can be found everywhere.

this is what I see..

who do you think funded AE?

you know, you die a little on the inside everytime you run that map..

Balance.. the knife's edge. (and why diversity can be hard) Design limitations. The addiction to combo mechanics. Given the above, flavor can easily be found reskinning and mix-n-matching various powers into a wide array of sets. My preference: Plain Jane, hard hitting with one non-combo trick up the sleeve. (Unique)

Just acknowledging the 'meta' and the efforts going into supporting it. Is it the right path? I dunno.

No risk, all reward.. it's what players want. Why unlock anything by playing the game anymore? Incarnate content.. ha, just farm your way there. Here have some new costume pieces, some new difficulty settings, new power sets, new content, new IO sets.. All we have to do is show up! Thanks Homecoming. not all players play the same or want the same things

License to Chill. and Release Candidate One is on Beta.. I can almost smell the dev sweat. A well earned break is near. Summary of changes?

Note: The following linked topic may contain some spoilers.

exactly once a character is of high enough level, and built out (and maybe experienced enough to be comfortable) elude can be optional. at level 40 rocking SOs and some IOs.. maybe not so much.

Corruptor

I should also mention that I've found that experience can lessen the occurrence of oh shit moments. Don't need that anymore.. respec. "I WANT all powers to be valuable and unskippable" ignores the journey and that we might take something early on and not need it later. Choices. Consequences.

Oh shit buttons should have oh shit consequences. Just my opinion but likely shared by some.

What's the mage.. dangit you made me say 'mage'

no joke! lol yep, that's what i figured.

server? also, you may want to familiarize with: https://forums.homecomingservers.com/code-of-conduct/
