I use filters, you can see the ones I was using at the moment I took the screen snippet (4th post in this thread). Without querying I personally wouldn't even see the value of having a spreadsheet at all.

Yes. It's just like slotting a recharge enhancement of whatever the particular alpha offers (not getting into nuances of what is exempt from ED)

No

Not joking in the least bit - this thread provided the impetus I need to finally make a petless MM, which has been on my to-do list for a while. It will be a Beast/Marine. I actually think it'll be decent, just finished Mids-ing it, procs errywhere.

Could the reference to "Alpha Slot" be eliminated please? I see way too many team leaders forming this that ask for alpha unlocked and it's not needed any more, the debuff was removed years ago. https://homecoming.wiki/wiki/Issue_27_Page_3#Apex_&_Tin_Mage_Task_Forces

If there's some means of allowing soloers to opt out of these EBs, fine, whatever. I absolutely would strongly object to being denied the opportunity to solo them though by some global change to deny their spawning for all soloers though. I rather enjoy these fights.

I found the notion that Umbral Beasts doesn't take Fulcrum Shift buffs so unlikely I logged in a kin from a different account from my dark/ troller to see firsthand and indeed the FS buffs do apply to the Umbral Beast. Screenshot of its attributes:

You asked for advice and the most important piece I have is: update your data. The most well designed spreadsheet is garbage if you haven't kept it up to date. Also (and this is advice I need to take) don't be afraid to delete fields you no longer care about. I have a few columns for data I used to track that I no longer use (like when to farm for Emp merits, on a 10 day timer to max out day job xp, shown as "FarmDay" below). Here are my columns: I have other sheets in the document that provide a little more granular data. Also several sheets within the doc do some calcs, like a proc calculator.

So, just to boil it down - AFK while resting in a fire within a zone like St. Martial. Disruptive/Kickworthy? Y/N

In Max's mission "Break out Director 11", mark the door (with a staircase emblem) that you pass on the way to the last room, with Director 11. Free D11, use recall. You'll be at the door he needs to be escorted to, the fight with Blue Steel still looms on the other side of the door...

The HC world. I assume you have some familiarity with HC Wiki. That shows See https://homecoming.wiki/wiki/S.T.A.R.T. Paragon badge

Looks like they've already been nerfed, so problem solved. Moving on...

Definitely needs a little love. Not to be simplistic but it seem like adding Dragon's Tail over... choose one, any one of the ST attacks, I don't even care, just make it not the only set in game (that I can think of at least) with absolutely zero aoe.

I made a Marine MM on Breakout during testing and included PB in the build. I logged back onto it to see results with and without PB. I'm not going to pretty this up, here's the dump of what I noted. For every number pair, the top one is without PB, the bottom one has it. All told the only value that I saw increase was Soothing Wave's heal and PotD's +MaxEnd. *Note this was a quick run through and I would not submit this as professional testing results. Every number on here is potentially sus.

I'm going to guess you mean Silent Blade, I've not seen Silver Mantis in any tips. I have heard of combat NPCs dying before they're rescued from aoe and this sounds like an example. I can make a note of that but I think the score stands because this is intended for someone pursuing raw speed in completing tips and would have a low mob count. When I was doing these I used default team size which was frequently two because I was 2-boxing with one choosing missions by the SG portal and the "hitter" completing the missions so both got tip credit. I suppose if someone is doing this with a lower damage AT there's a greater risk to Silent Blade since enemies may get off more AOE attacks. Thank you for your feedback.

I get all the PVP zone goodies, so I spend some decent amount of time pursuing shivans, patrols, badges and sometimes nukes. I've only had someone attack me once, turns out it was a new player. I sent a tell asking if they were going to continue attacking, which was fine if they were, but I was just badging and I would just do other non-PVP zone things if did. They actually backed off. Let me emphasize, I'm not saying they should have, but a quick two-tell exchange worked things out. But yeah to answer the question directly you're fair game. Personally I take a few precautions, like doing a /whoall (which won't show hidden players or course) and in Sirens if I'm someone's bounty I just leave.

Can you expound on this? I've not encountered what you described. The boss has a hibernate like power but gets out of it.

Nah my dude, we ran it at +4, there were +6 enemies in there. Worth mentioning this was respec 2 and no one has lvl 50 goodies yet (purples, superior ATOS, HOs, whatevah), this is all the power of Marine. This is a good time for a new member to join, even if level 1 as we're likely to be doing Posi eventually that session, so getting from 1-8 will be super quick. The next session is Friday, 27-Sept, 8:00pm Eastern, 5 Pacific, 12:00 UTC (I think). Send a tell to Snarky to join. J/k, it's better to join our global channel (/chan_join "Justice Superteamers") and holler for an invite, or message me @hedgefund prime, directly,

Other times this has been mentioned in this subforum: https://forums.homecomingservers.com/topic/53677-office-building-room-bug/ https://forums.homecomingservers.com/topic/53106-funky-minion-behavior/ https://forums.homecomingservers.com/topic/53422-pets-and-mobs-teleporting/ There may be others but these are the ones I know about. I reference these only to consolidate other writeups of this issue to help the dev that's diligently working on fixing this (because that's happening, right? RIGHT?!?) I've had a spell where I didn't encounter this bug. That is, until a couple of days ago when I had a boss (downgraded to lieut) fight with a /fire manip blaster where they ported away but they were defeated by DOTS and the mission ended.

Oh lawdie it does. Screenie of my combat attributes after using it on a random mob: Unbelievable. The to-hit debuff does apply to enemy mobs at least.

I say "same, same" with regards to the humility my elec/elec brute felt after the first time on this encounter. These days, when I've got a meleer that's apt to grab a bunch of aggro and isn't strong to toxic, I'll pop Demonic the instant before attacking a pylon. That should last through 2 pylons, maybe all 3 if your team rocks. For ranged ATs, even those I typically play at melee I'll stay a safe distance and shoot the pylons from a spot where there are no rikti nor hydra.

I merged the mob XP detailed on paragonwiki with the xp needed to level. Unfortunately HC wiki does not have this info listed so I went with the old one figuring it would, at worst, be "close enough". https://archive.paragonwiki.com/wiki/Experience I created a field to represent number of even con minions (I did not account for lieuts, bosses or higher [or lower] feel free to tackle that yourself). It looks like it takes almost 43,500 mobs to get to 50, half that (21,750) happens between levels 37 and 38. Feel free to interpolate if you want more precision, I've used up all the time I'm dedicating to this.

1. Get on a team ASAP. Kills are shared amongst teammates. 2. Follow the path shown on vidiotmaps for the dropships (afaik there are two paths in each zone) 3. Use a targeting bind/macro for "bomb". This, for example, is what I use: /bind g targetcustomnext "bomb". No need for additional parameters because when the bomb is destroyed it leaves no corpse.

Let me summarize and annotate what I posted. "The Clockwork Paladin WAS a zone event..." (notice verb tense) "This event replaced the previous Paladin Construction event in issue 24. Due to multiple bugs that often rendered the event unavailable, it was discontinued in Issue 27 and the Paladin Construction zone event was reinstated. " So no need for shrug emojis, it's pretty straightforward. What you quoted was from the page for the event as it was from i24 up to i27. We're now in i28, page 1, beyond i27, when the Clockwork Paladin event was removed and the page you posted became invalid.
