Burnt Toast

Cool - can I have your stuff?

Have you ever teamed with two blasters? Nuke - Nuke - Nuke - Nuke. Should we also limit those or change them so they don't do nearly enough damage? My blaster does WAY more damage on his 20 second recharge nuke than even comparable to Judgement. Sure judgment CAN hit more, but the opportunity for that in a regular mission (not a farm) isn't there. If you don't like the way others play - do not play with them. If you want to run paper missions or story arcs and not have to worry about judgements... invite people who are 35-44... or ask people not to use their powers. It's only a problem if you let it be one.

Why? You ARE being electrocuted by an ally. If someone jolts you with electricity you are just going to stay there and not have any physical reaction?

The market is bare because there was an influx of characters due to the new powerset - happens every time. The ones you listed are one of the cheaper sets of defense and resistance. 50 merits for a purple is way too low as is 20 for a rare. Something more reasonable would be: Uncomon: 10 Rare: 40 Purple: 80 ATO: 100 But this is a reactionary request due to the influx of people buying for their new characters - the market will bounce back in a week or so. I never buy if something is too much...simply put in an appropriate bid and wait. In the meantime..slot with generic IOs.

I think you are blowing this "farmers quitting" way out of proportion. Aside from a few loud mouths on the forums I do not know one person who has remotely suggested they are quitting over the influence change...then again I mainly associate with level headed people and avoid the overly dramatic. Market prices will increase over the next week and then drop some due to the uptick in new Electrical Affinity toons, but this market is WAY more stable than ther one on Live.

I wondered how long it would take before someone got triggered by this...an animation in a mmo base on super heroes. The animation is fine...what do you think you would do if you were zapped with electricity...just stand there? Just because it has a benefit doesn't mean your body wouldn't react to it....

As a person who farms daily... I have no issues with the influence change. Excited for all the other stuff in update 🙂

And.... it's Monday apparently.

Actually: maneuvers, tactics, assault, vengerance.. super speed and combat jump... can be quite useful depending on the build.

I would rather spend 15-30 mins on Mids planning than respecing even once LOL!

You realize Defenders don't just help tanks right? The role of a Defender is still important in many team makeups - especially in TFs. Each Defender primary serves a purpose that if used correctly can help a team - through buffs/debuffs. As for damage... while Defenders have the lowest damage modifier in the game that does not mean that their attacks don't contribute to taking down enemies. It is through their primary and secondary powers that Defenders can turn a mediocre team into true super heroes.

There's nothing to consider as "we move forward." This is a non-starter suggestion. It will not happen. You can hold out hope all you want, but the reality is - 99.999% of the suggestions made here will not happen - and I can guarantee this is not in the .001% of those that will ever seriously be considered.

It will not be in this page coming out next. It will be ooked at in the future and at that time...will be beta tested/discused/modified/tested/discussed. FYI a lot of people use AE for non-farming...that is not something special that only happens on Everlasting. Difference is in the mindset of how characters are built - for RP purposes or for functionality purposes. Choices.

When people say the game is hard.... I usually look at their power choices and that is usually a good indicator that they have no idea how to build a decent character build.

Posted 2 hours before you started this thread:

yeah they are invaluable; especially at lower levels. mine is a water/nin sentinel... still have capped positional defense and several attacks (only one water one though LOL)

My friends and I have Power Pool toons... very fun and effective. You have to take your level 1 powers... a power from your primary/secondary at level 2... and then everything after is power/epic pool only.

You are not taking into account - Characters created just for a name who are low level counting towards that 1.2 mil char count. How many hours are played on each character pre/post 50. I have 38 characters - 14 of them are 50 and t3/t4 all incarnates - those are the ones I play. The other characters are future 50's or a few are just name holders or influence mules. Excelsior has seen a dramatic increase in the number of incarnate trials being ran in the past 3-4 months. It used to be difficult to find anything aside from BAF and the occasional LAMBDA. Now you see MoM, DD, Mag, etc being run for hours during the day/evening. I know plenty of people who have left the game and no longer play with dozens of lowbies on their accounts. Do I think 50's make up the MAJORITY of characters being played at any given time... nah... but I do think they make up a significant 25-33% of the characters being played most of the time. Some of us have been playing since day one and frankly... running lower level content is boring and doesn't exactly make one feel all that heroic. New content for 50+ would do a lot to alleviate the "issue" with incarnate powers as well as offer something new for the majority of players who do have 50+ toons. (On a side note.. not all those fire brutes just do farming... my Fire/WM Brute can (and does) content on the regular because he has... the build to do pve and farm.) Your viewpoint seems to be very black and white and not take into account the very gray nature of statistics; especially considering the lack of data regarding actual USAGE of characters.

Oh look..another thread with the exact same suggestion of an already active thread. As for your suggestion... No thanks. I have no issues at all with how it has worked for 7 years (when Instant Healing was changed from a toggle) on live and now on HC. Not sure why people ask for this... regen is already/still a beast - so not needed imo.

Must be Thursday.

No thanks. Not sure why people think it's a good idea to suggest... that others should be less powerful because they don't like something. Don't want people to use Judgment on your teams - lead a team... and say - no Judgment - tada.

I have never had a power tray change on me... on Live or HC. Not sure what you are doing that this happens?

Seriously... do people even bother looking for the numerous threads that have already been posted on subjects any more?

Oh look... this... again. No. My reasoning? Please see the other numerous threads on this subject that lay out the technical reasons why as well as the overall game experience why.

I don't see a need for it. It will end up as just another prompt that is either ignored or...in my case turned off permanently. If people can't be bothered to show a smidge of patience over something that can be; in their minds, so detrimental in the game... then I doubt yet another prompt will solve much. I learned my lesson about lag and the auction house when I bought something for 250 million instead of 25 million. But instead of asking for a volunteer dev team to address a self-imposed problem... I learned from my mistake and adjusted my impatience level.
