Snarky

Well, no one has ever complained to me that I have deleted stuff. I have gotten hints, rumors, and whispers about possible other issues. But no, no one has ever complained to me that I deleted something.

To me Dark armor has issues pairing with anything that does not have an endurance recovery power. So Dark/Dark. I find nothing else that flows. I will pair Dark melee with Invul for great synergy. since Dark Armor does not have DDR you must fully understand Dark, and what it does. Some folks try to build it like regular armor. I think this is a major mistake Dark has a stealth which does not suppress in combat. Unless fighting enemies with capabilities like Rularuu eyeballs or Rikti drones Dark will not be seen, until close enough to get enemies in your combat zone. This is the first defense Dark has Dark has some to hit debuff. Paired as Dark/Dark you have a LOT of to hit debuff. This is another defense Dark has a Stun and a Fear Aura. One has a pretty crappy base accuracy. Build up you Accuracy and To Hit buff in your I/O build. Enemies that, even for a few seconds at a time, are feared or stunned are not attacking you. This is another two layers of defense Some people build Dark as other Armors, using time honored logic that Defense is greater than Resist is greater than Heal Dark stands this entire reality on it’s head by stealth/debuffs/mezzes and having incredible resists. Then having the absolute best heal in the game

Like sands through the hourglass, so are the threads of our lives…

Well i never put def on Dark armor. I believe that stealth, to hit debuff, stun and fear are the defenss in Dark. But in a S/L farm i would build it to softcap.

If you can get a full exp S/L farm with mobs that do not debuff Def, build a Dark/Dark Brute with S/L Res and build for softcap S/L Def. Horrid game build but great farmer

Current balance is high end I/O builds. People can say "you don't have to run it" until they sound like homeless people talking to a wall. All you see in game are things like "+2 Speed Synapse" and recruiting for the very hardest content. Nicely though, I do not have to run it. I only log in for a couple hours a week now to run things with friends.

I would agree wholeheartedly.... except the trend is to make things way harder in the modern game. Goldside 1-20 is without a doubt way harder than red/blue. I would recommend being grateful you have red/blue before they start adding EBs to every mission in every arc as part of the new game design.

Yes! Your suggestion was a very good one.

Holy crap Batman, did you actually delete the thread?!?

Yes, Praetoria has some odd level restriction quirks. You encounter a couple of these red/blue pre-10 as well.

It was an accident...

I have a thread that was moved to "Suggestions." About half the people responding are really against it. A good percentage of those that are against it have asked "Where does it stop?" The more I thought about it, the more I realized the brilliance of this. If you (not you, not making this personal) If ANYONE makes a suggestion they are trying to influence the game design. Once a change is made, where does it stop? It is absolute chaos. Please do not ask for changes, or make any suggestions. Likewise, please educate those who are asking for game changes or making suggestions. These folks need to know that they are taking us down the rocky road to ruin.

Wow. I never looked at it this way. Eyes wide open. I am starting a new thread. No one should put in suggestions. If the game is modified based on their suggestions they just want more, More, MORE

All goldside content is available through ouro. every bit. but yes, stopping experience is the time honored way completionist ocd types have solved this issue.

what the hell does this mean? i have read it 3 times. where is the COFFEE

I do not get over to suggestions much. I got “ moved “ here. great graphic btw. F-ing epic

Yes, in the movie “Ready Player One” one of the keys was solved by knowledge that the point of video games can be just wandering about in them. Now, I am not trying to infer whoever fixed this was some soulless corporate policy wonk who despises people having fun Still, it makes you think about things and wonder about our role in each other’s existences. Or not

Not a brag. I thought it sucked. and it was 3- 3 1/2 hours. Yes, now I want to push a button and get an insta 50. At least you followed some of the conversation. You are doing so well now.

Before I respond directly to this... Do you group me in the "not completely innocent" or with the "bunch of crazies" Be warned. I've worked hard and deserve my title!!!

that would be oddly fun

Honestly? Because I do not need to. Feeling of accomplishment? I have a Dark/Invul that stopped experience and side switched to do every arc from every single contact in every level range 1-50. Know how to pilot a character. With the exception of MMs that is not an issue. Sort of connection? If I like a toon I will write dozens of pages of an origin story about them. Playing/farming a toon 1-49 to discover they suck at 50? Priceless. This happens often. Token me please 🙂

Yes. My original question has been addressed. Redressed, Dressed Down, Dressed Up and so on I have a topic (that was moved…) to suggestions and feedback as my only follow up on this Enjoying the chat Thank you everyone

Is that an indictment of server transfers (instead of playing up on a different server), double experience boosters of all types (instead of earning it) or did you just go hyperbolic because of lil ol me?

Kind of like server transfers. You get one token a month to insta 50 a toon. This idea came to me because I generally used AE to level a new concept. Took about three hours. (maybe a tiny bit more, 3 1/2, of "in tunnel time" not counting breaks ) I have not tried under the new system but my ability to not follow the discussion leads me to believe this might be anywhere from 7-21 hours. One thing is for sure, if there is a current fast way ain't nobody gonna say a damn word. The love is gone baby. A lot of people besides me do not care for farming. there is all the new content, mostly at end game. Heck, nearly everything good is end game. Enhancer sets, rewards, missions, task forces, trials. All best at 50, We know how to level. Heck, I spent years lazily levelling the toons before an alt acct farmer sprang up. These dayas I only go into the game out of concept curiosity. if i like I stay for a couple days maybe and run incarnate stuff. But there is no way I am spending a work day or two in a farm for a 50. My days of slow levelling through all old TFs are pretty much burnt down to the wick as well. So, this idea thrown at the wall. Have at thee forum trolleth!

Try a MM in a Really Hard Way Magisterium or a few of the other tougher and more intricate incarnate trials. Maybe if they buff the pet levels (as the pets stand now most are near useless) MMs might see a use.
