They did. In Beta Rooted no longer slows you unless you're also in Granite.

People have explained already why it is unlikely to be changed even though, I agree, it sucks. To be specific about something someone alluded to: In the next content patch MM summons are having their cooldowns, endurance costs, and (in some cases) cast times all slashed heavily.

I think any changes need to simply add to what is already there, or if something has to be really significantly changed then it needs to still basically offer what it did before in some other way.

The permanent problem is an easy fix. Just make it so that it’s not a timed toggle, it’s a toggle that you can leave up as long as you want. Allowing it to be put up on multiple targets might be difficult though.

Damn, OK I see your point. I’ll keep thinking about it. There has to be a way to add functionality to make the power worthwhile to people who don’t like it as it currently is while also preserving what is good about it for the people who do like it.

My intention is to give it additional functionality without removing any of the current functionality.

According to mids it has a recharge of 60 seconds and a duration of 30 seconds currently. If that’s true then again, I ask, doesn’t my suggestion actually keep all of the current functionality?

OK I have to apologize if I misunderstand how the power works. It was my belief that currently it has a 30 seconds maximum duration. Is that wrong?

How does my suggestion ruin the power? My suggestion literally doesn’t remove any of the functionality that it currently has. 30 seconds maximum duration, only now you can turn it off when you want to.

I understand that Blasters aren't JUST ranged, of course. And, full disclosure, I seriously considered saying "Glass Cannon" and leaving it at that. That list is explicitly intended as a simplification. One of my favorite things about the game is how flexible it is and how any AT can be built to do just about anything.

Honestly, I think this is a good idea and should go in to this release if possible. @Captain Powerhouse What do you think? Could we have Infiltration stack with other Stealth powers?

Rushing to 50 is obviously popular. No argument there. But calling it the meta implies some things that are simply false. At least that’s how I see it.

Maybe “disingenuous”

Is it really not possible to at least give just infiltration an exception from the stealth stacking rules, just like hide?

It's definitely not.

This is simply MY TAKE and is definitely not authoritative in any way shape or form: Blaster: Glass Cannon Ranged Controller: CC Support Defender: Support Specialist Scrapper: Melee Generalist Tanker: Tank Specialist Kheldians: Ranged Tank Shapeshifter Sentinel: Armored Ranged Brute: Heavy Melee Tank Stalker: Stealth Melee Mastermind: Summoner Specialist Dominator: CC DPS Corruptor: Ranged Support Arachnos: Armored Support Important note: Unlike other games there is no required team composition. Any combination of characters can complete nearly every encounter in the game. While some archetypes/powersets may be better at Soloing than others, all archetypes can contribute successfully in team situations.

I think you misunderstood what I meant by "side issue". But I guess you meant this is the meta STRICTLY for PvPers, in which case maybe you're right, I don't know. I don't think any of your suggestions are at all likely to encourage more participation. Certainly for ME, someone who plays PvE and NOT PvP, these suggestions would do nothing to get me into the PvP zones, RV or otherwise.

Side issue: This is NOT the "meta". This is just how some people choose to play the game.

No problem. And with the lowered recharges it really is no problem.

I think that actually might be more investment than necessary. I'm pretty sure it will cap with just 50s. They don't need to be +5. I forget right now whether it has to be 3 or if 2 will do it.

Peacebringer Dwarf Step still does not allow movement immediately after porting, like WS does. That's on Brainstorm, can't get on Shadow yet.

Can't get into the Staging servers. Wrong game version, run patcher and reconnect, server 20210329_4019, client 20210206_3701

I'm confused about one thing. I've seen people saying that the new Rune works like Mind Link, regarding recharge. Is that right? So you can't slot basic recharge, but you Can slot sets with recharge and the recharge will work, and Hasten impacts it as does global recharge buffs? Have I misunderstood?

I love this idea.

I play Live using the 64 bit client but the 64 bit Beta client gives me lots of problems, super laggy, textures not displaying properly, all kinds of weird stuff. The 32 bit Beta client works perfectly for me though, maybe try that.
