Again, as I said technically in a pure legal sense, anything that is not a physical document or agreement of some sort can be taken like this. While we here on this community and for the most part people who care will see the announcement and no brimefire from NCSOFT as confirmation. That does not hold us in usual business ways as contracts are involved. Technically without proper knowledge it can been seen as alleged as there is no sustainable proof aside that we are still here. Still without lock solid proof people will rule lawyer and proclaim allegedly. As unless that person is going to court on this, which would be very silly the proof of burden is not on them for not believing them. Also it is a Wiki we are talking about people edit shit on their constantly with every intention a person can have.

I agree with what Luminara is saying here. Technically it is allegedly as we have no definitive or legal proof of this. We can assume that this is legit and remove the alleged comment, but unless there is formal documentation about the agreement, or a second source to confirm it is what it is. Now was someone being a rules lawyer or disgruntled about the announcement and made sure to stick it on the Wiki? Probably as Wiki as they say is community based, as you mentioned there could be an edit war over minimal stuff like this. But it the end it just is the eyes of the community and their thoughts I guess.

I did look over her Wiki page, so they took some notes and changed it as she had no idea about being a clone. But that seemed like a very large arc for a secondary character, which is not really needed. I felt this setup Sinister, and the conflict there which is more integral for the story. Also, I am one who is not bothered when stuff is altered or edited when transferring from one media to another.

The Dark Horse, Top Cow comics were all done when the game was live, and was given the original seal of approval from the Cryptic team. A lot of stuff changes/rewrote as other devs or writers came, as we see many times in the game. The other two above are tied into the Manticore wedding that did happen and written by the devs. Also the other one was maybe setup as who will die? I am not sure about this but they are all done by the dev team or outsourced. I know the server devs on Homecoming, Thunderapy, or Rebirth made them. But I think the comics are better as a look a what the ideas of the game before in early days than what the current lore is especially for Praetorian, as that was rewritten when going Rouge came out from what I recall.

Well that is the usual amount of episodes now on streaming services. While it has already been planned for a third season with season two almost done. Also season 5 the original series finale had 10 episodes. Honestly five hours is enough to make a major story, especially if it is continuing into other seasons. Personally for me I want a more tight scripted series and avoiding a lot of fat or delays. Was it a quick turn around on 3, probably but to say it was rushed not sure on that. I will wait till the season ends before I make final judgement.

Maybe from the first two, but Top Cow and other comics are extremely old from IIRC when it was just CoH, no CoV or Goldside around and some of the stuff was non-canonized. Especially anything that had old Praetoria in it would of been re-written. The two newer ones, I cannot say for certain; but I would be skeptical.

As with any great story there is a small sliver of truth, and ninjas.

The look he gave when we mentioned this brought a chill down our spine. We learned that there was no such thing called ninjas, and since that day we have never seen them to change our beliefs.

Well my Plant dom has a small Jurassik it picked up randomly maybe he found better pastures on the redside with me.

I have been told by my old boss who was a Samurai that there is no such thing as ninjas. So those are good horses in disguise.

Took some of your notes, and did a small adjustments; mainly just adding a slight more rech to 162%, and shifting a few procs arounds trying to squeeze another FF +rech. So a slight bit of DPS loss but I think it is the smoother chain, and I love the mallet animations. I did take out tremor as the animation time is brutal and the DPS did not do it for me, also WoC is good at times, but Seeds vastly overpowers it, while it helped in some places overall I wanted to spam seeds more for stacking confuse. Also while I love Link Minds, but it never felt like a smooth addition to this build and the goals I had envisioned. I took Fire Mastery, as mentioned in @EnjoyTheJourney's build and it seem more in line with a nature setup, also I did forget about melt armor and which has new life under the new page 7. I have gone through Anchillary's of Ice, Dark, Psi, Mace, Levi, Soul. But Fire was the missing piece I feel. While I will have to build up some incarnate salvage for Support Hybrid, I like the idea of the rotating defenses of Unleash Potential > Barrier > Support, as it is a nice rotation to keep high end resistance and good defense, which helps in everyday mobs. I am not sure how much I will be hunting AVs on this build as HP is still lowish, and those random 5% will hit and hurt (Thanks Infernal!), but probably more in line to prep and plan a bit more for the ones who do not care about smash damage. I think Melt Armor and Weaken resolve will help with that. Also I should remember to look into the other origin power pools to see what they can do in right builds aside from RoP.

While I cannot comment too much on Dark assault, as I am currently working on a build for it and do not have much expierence. I do have some for in general for Dark Control, and other dark sets, and in relation to Doms. I think Vigor is highly undervalued on Doms. Dark can be end hungry and the end reduction is crucial for this, especially in the land of procs and perma-dom. With Doms usually not having the best end management, and the need for recharge for perma, and then adding more for DPS, I think Vigor, and the lesser extent Cardiac are big game changers for Doms. I lean more to Vigor after a mention from @EnjoyTheJourney, which changed a lot of ways to build the 50 Dom. The ACC and END Red, are very nice to have on a Dom, that covers two things you really want aside from recharge bonuses. Making sure all your controls hit and keeping your blue bar topped up. While I know most people will usually say to lean on Domination, I think there is enough that can be done to keep a higher consistency and not depend on Domination to top up the blue. For the life drain, I was looking at frakenslotting it with some ACC/HEAL and procs to go more DPS on my dark assault dom, but mine is more Ill/Dark then Dark/Dark, so results might be different.

Slotted in the FF procs in fissure, and mallet, put the -res proc and cold proc in creepers, and a few adjustments to slotting to squeeze out a bit more. I might do another pass through to see how it ends up, but feels a smoother now. I wanted to touch on this question here also, for Earth Assault, you will want some end reduction on it. Most attacks have a very high endurance consumption, and running the procs and high recharge you will eat you bar very heavily. While a loss on high damage, this helps with sustain DPS for a longer period.

Here is the new hash, hopefully it works.

Okay, I will check that and put up a new data chunck later. Mids and Linux can be a bit fussy at times. I will toss up a screenshot as well for prosperity.

Did a different pass on this Dom, as I was not a huge fan of Dark Mastery on it. Testing around with Psi Mastery but not sold on it fully yet. Just want to see if there was something missing or tweaks I could make with pass three. To note I purposefully moved the +dam ATO to seeds for more def bonus this time. Plan for destiny is to run barrier, as I should be able to keep a steady end bar.

Looking at the new build there, I have a couple of comments. Please take with it as you will. Chain fences is kinda overslotted, you do not need the purp immob. I would recommend 2-5 slots, Two for a winter AOE IO, then add procs if you want. I would take out the slots out of boxing and I would look at getting in telekenic blast, it will hit harder, and the KB to KD IO makes a huge change for this attack. Drain Psyche must have some ACC in it, my priority for this is ACC - Heal - Rech. I have used more Hami's for that as I was not worried about set bonuses for this more getting 99% to the three above. Your end consumption is high, might look at getting the miracle and numina in there as you need to expect sometimes to miss psyche. Fire shield is under slotted, I think getting four Unbreakable Guard with one being the 7.5 to health and a 3% def IO is a great base. Not sure about how to alot static field, but that DOM ATO is low priority for builds. Subdue is good you can look at adding the +dam DOM IO for helping in attack chain.

Check out the post by @Frosticus, this man is a monster with Earth/Psi, his build is is a best and handles the hard content and AV stomping.

At work currently, so I cannot look full over the build. But one thing I will mention, perma-hasten is a bit rough on Dom, even with Drain Psyche being up quite a bit, the end consumption from Dom attacks, and the blue recovery is a bit rough at times. Usually the best bet is to aim for perma-dom, then fill out an armor defense of your choice, perma-hasten at times hurts more due to the end drain then always having it up.

So for Bane builds they do not get DDR, I run Ageless on them, but my Crab Spider, did have some like 40 or 50%~? I do not have Ageless on him yet, as I have not crafted that for him yet, as I am rebuilding his incarnate powers. I will check when I get home to make sure I am not off. But I know when I got some -def from Longbow I was not absolutley destroyed like my Bane at times. ---EDIT--- Went through and checked, and it Crab does not get DDR, when I was scouring it, there might of been a lingering Destiny buff at a hotspot which gave me a small amount. Still good to know Bane/Crab do not get DDR, so Ageless is good for them

Just ran a retooled a bane I had stale into a crab last night, and they do get some DDR, from what I saw, not a lot but there is some there. I guess their main emergency power, is more their alpha with Omega bomb with the taunt aura is puts up. But they are naturally tanky with the HP, def, and resistance values. But I think I prefer my Night Widow a bit more for tanking as melee > range for that roll.

Yeah, I went through my bane and widow again after page 7 updates. The damage and survival is a big jump for them, and overall DPS they are pushing. I do not think my Widow is fully optimized, but it works wonders and melts groups. I found doing ageless for DDR addition helps out much more than barrier, as it is close to incarnate sot-caps with all buffs a going. Only a few times I felt like I could of went down, but a quick green helps. Adding to this helping with the blue bar to keep it topped up which was fantastic. I will probably have to run a build as a fort sometime to see the ridiculousness of them.

I know for me, I like running placate and AoE immob from the Patron pool to hold mobs tight while I take them down. With the new rebuild I have not really tested against an AV yet with the new tankiness of AVs, but if I had to choose I would go provoke, while it is ST, the -range I think would be better than AOE, as most minions and LTs will drop quickly, with immob and some PBAOE damage, also for some stragglers a couple range attacks like mental blast and poison dart helped clear them. I will have to see what an AV is like without taunt and running.

Artic Air is a beast for end consumption. Perma dom does help with that, but still it will be tight. I would recommend if you can get it the Dom ATO Ascendency of the Dominator in AA. As it has end reduction that should hit diminishing returns levels and confuse duration cap. If you are unable for that I would suggest Frankenslotting it for now. Focusing on End and then Confusion. Also on general end reduction will help a tonne leveling up if you are not fulled loaded with you IO plan and perma dom. Focusing that in the aura and the savage attacks will be the best plan to keep your blue bar happy.

Yeah right now, I run two Winter melee ACC/DAM, ACC/DAM/END, then purple hold proc ATO proc, hold proc, PVP melee proc. I run the five melee purple in heavy mallet there.
