Update: The cells that change color to indicate ED caps now also repeat the name of the aspect in each column. This is to enable the sheet to become more compact; once all the set bonuses and enhancement aspects have been set, the rows where that's done can be hidden so the sheet only shows the final design of the set without all the now-extraneous fields where that information was input.

It's been grandfathered. The AoE sets used to be called PBAoE and Targeted AoE before being renamed Melee AoE and Ranged AoE, respectively. The old names were ambiguous, and frequently caused confusion about which kind of power they were meant for, even among the dev staff. Spinning Strike was one such example.

The whole point of adding new currencies is so that players sitting on dragons' hoards of existing currencies don't instantly buy everything the moment it launches.

Number Six just explained that you already have them

The damage and notify has to stay, so the damage procs in Confuse IO sets have a purpose. One of them even has a picture of musical notes on it, for crying out loud!

And while we're at it, it'd be great if instead of shooting at players, they shoot at Blue Ink Men, before they can cast Siphon Speed.

Any surprises you've come across with Alpha slotting?
Vanden replied to biostem's topic in General Discussion
Only external boosts. They accept enhancements, for the most part. Musculature will increase the damage that Lores and Judgements deal, Resilient and Agility will buff Barrier Destiny, Nerve will make your Lore and Judgement more accurate, etc. There's some scattered exceptions (and some of those are probably bugs), but aside from Recharge (which Incarnate powers always ignore), you can expect your Alpha ability to affect your Lore, Judgement, and Destiny where appropriate. -
You have the Vanguard base day job.

The biggest surprise I had was that most Alpha effects will also buff Judgement, Lore, and Destiny powers. Recharge being the obvious exception. -
There's kind of a plot reason for Aeon's gloves becoming a costume piece, related to his Strike Force. Odysseus's gloves, however, are a one-of-a-kind pair, and they get destroyed at the end of Mortimer Kal's Strike Force.

Sub-50s running WSTs get a massive chunk of XP at the end; 50s only get a piece of mostly-deprecated incarnate salvage. I think the idea was to add incentive to run WSTs on 50s.

Except for that 10% the AH takes.

Update: There is now a field to set the Type of your set, either Craftable or Attuned-Only (like ATOs, or Overwhelming Force). Choosing "Attuned-Only" as your set type automatically marks every enhancement as Unique, regardless of whether you have checkboxes in the "Unique?" column marked. Similarly, marking enhancements as Superior is now done by selecting "Very Rare" for the set's Rarity. The "Superior?" column has been replaced with the "Unslot?" column.* Marking checkboxes in this column makes the tool temporarily ignore an enhancement's contribution to the final slotted values, allowing you to quickly see what totals the set would give if the marked enhancements were not slotted. Lastly, the colors of several aspects have been updated to more closely match their enhancement colors in-game. *Hot tip: Removing the "Superior?" column means it's no longer possible to use the tool to try out certain frankenslotting setups, specifically mixing +5 purples with normal IOs. Buuuut... if you click on a box in the booster column and type in 11.25 as the value instead of using the drop down menu, the numbers for that enhancement will be identical to a +5 purple with the same aspects.

If you want to enhance 5 aspects in a non-Superior set, something's gonna come up anemic. Synapse's Shock has the exact same amount of end reduction, for example. Don't discount that global end cost reduction in the set bonuses, though, that can be pretty big.

Please stop shaming the mobs for reacting to your harsh words by attempting to leave the stressful situation rather than react with typical toxicity and escalate.

@TheZag is right, there's too few Accurate Healing sets.

By all means, design one and propose it. I like to think I made doing that sort of thing much easier. 😁
