[Homecoming Server Update (May 20th): What's Next?]

Just an update on the multiboxing stuff: We no longer have Mastermind-specific restrictions. The other rules still apply. Follow them or be forever snapped out existence.

 

This is wonderful, thank you! :)

 

I know what I'm (finally) doing this weekend after I get my new computer built!

[Clarifying things about Mercs]

Oh that's a big relief. Would Mercs be decent with Force Field as a secondary or would I really want to grab Traps instead to focus on debuffing resistances?

 

I took merc/ff to 40ish on live.  It is perhaps the slowest, most boring (imho) combo possible (for my playstyle!).  BUT, like all the other combos, it works.  You can get a solid amount of def and status protection, and you have some minor KB control...you'll probably wind up taking medicine, and maybe all the slow medicine pool healing drives you crazy?  Or not ? :P  /traps will probably be more fun and engaging than /ff.

 

I took a merc/storm to maxed incarnate, and found that combo plenty strong.  /dark is fine as well...I would recommend anything other than empathy, pain, ff and sonic - unless you plan on primarily grouping, those powers all shine in groups, and can drag solo.  You have to consider your pets abilities and behavior  - merc/ isn't particularly favorable to the /kin pairing, for example, because your heal works best when pets are in melee.

 

 

[The Guide to Issues aka "When did they add/change that?"]

This is great, thank you!

Just reading it was a nice trip down memory lane, as I'd forgotten the sequencing of so many things.

 

[Homecoming Server Update (May 20th): What's Next?]

You may not multibox on a shard that has more than 1500 players logged in

You may not use more than 3 accounts at once

You may not use more than one Mastermind at once

 

 

I'm fine with the naming stuff, and with the multi-boxing stuff in general, with exception to the 1 mastermind limit.  Dual boxing masterminds was kind of my thing on live, and I was really looking forward to doing it again.

 

I haven't even bothered to multi-box yet as I'm still enjoying the leveling experience and trying out new sets, but my real long-term goal was mm duos.  Is there any chance this restriction might be lifted in the future?  Maybe if we're playing on the lowest population server?

[Data Collection Issues [Resolved]]

Excellent job on the transparency guys, I continue to be impressed.  Thank you!

[Status update]

Onward and upward!  Or...something.

[Any Pinnacle expats?]

Still here, @lobster.
