Laucianna

Playing a Kheldian can be for a number or reasons, for most it is the shapeshifting, but for some it might be lore tied into the story, the looks of the other powers, their friends playing one etc 🙂 And honestly if the game was made today an Epic powerpool would probably suit Kheldians better to allow other AT's a sort of tanking form or a blasting form, but that trip sailed a long time ago 😄

I am not seeing anything changed that makes the lore lose out so please correct me if I am missing anything 😅 No longer need to be level 50/20 - If when making a Kheldian you had to turn one of your other characters into a Peacebringer/Warshade I could understand, but that is just a limit no longer needed with the advancement of player knowledge/skill in general. Light form to see costume - You can still toggle the original ball of light mode if that is what you want ❤️ But for others you get a special look of pure energy embracing you (Whilst also giving a buff to those using the lightball mode due to no collision with players/mobs) Origin no longer locked - Origins are a big argument in themselves, for me personally my character was an exceptional teleporter and summoner before merging with a Kheldian so the forced natural origin lock would diminish that lore as it's not her origin. Nothing has been robbed from Kheldians, and all people are asking for is a bit more customization when it comes to their Kheldians, it is not my place nor anyone else's to tell people they have to play tri form and use the forms and like it, we should be encouraging more people to enjoy Kheldians and this suggestion I 100% believe can do that without changing or ruining their lore in the slightest.

Why wouldn't you? It's a nice QoL change same as toggle suppression (Although toggle suppression could be classed as a buff without having to retoggle) that makes the AT and the game more enjoyable, it won't affect anyone who likes the forms already as it will be an option 🙂 And with how often I hear "I want to play a Kheldian but don't like the look of the forms" it is safe to say quite a few people desire this sort of feature to the AT ❤️

Are you able to show in lore where it is cannon that all Kheldians have interacted with the Dwarf forms or the Nova forms? Or where it states they have to fully transform their body into that form? From my knowledge and power descriptions Kheldians are "masters of energy and matter" which to me sounds like they would have control over if they want to fully turn into the form or partially turn into the form like my suggestion 🙂 I fully understand wanting to keep the AT tied to lore as it is a HUGE part of what makes Kheldians great, but there is no harm in trying to figure out a way to make the AT more appealing to others whilst keeping it in line with the lore ❤️

Yeah that's how Vixen does it too in the video, her tanky forms like Gorilla appear over her and the flying Eagle appears behind her shoulders ❤️

Getting back on track I do honestly think a more minimal FX option for Kheldians is something desired, not talking about DPS or anything like that but a way to use the forms that doesn't fully overwrite your costume with 1 of two presets (Dwarf or Nova) and if something is desired enough and will encourage people to play the AT to it's full extent (using the forms) then I am all for it ❤️

Yeah it isn't fully shapeshifting but it's a possible solution to what @Vic Raiden is suggesting ❤️

So similar to the way the hero Vixen does from DC, where it shows the form (With a slight transparency) over your player when you switch into the form and then either vanishes leaving you as human only or with it constantly as a transparent form on top of yours (I still want to poll what people will prefer on the post I make). This is something I have checked with Devs and is possible but not as a minor thing so could be something in the rework 🙂 Both builds can be seen on my guide alongside the damage numbers beside them ❤️ Both have some attacks procced out, others not depending on what is needed to make it a build that can be used in content outside of just Pylon DPS checks 😄

One of the big asks from me personally coming to the rework is a "Minimal FX" option, not a zero FX and I do feel like I found a great way to do that so people who like their costume can still enjoy it whilst getting full use out of the forms, I am still writing it up at the moment however and don't want to post it early as like @Shin Magmus mentioned the last time I made a post without it being 100% complete the same small missed data point kept reappearing in the comments despite it being answered there and the thread got locked 😞 However to clear up sort efficiency numbers where I have done completed builds on the live servers with multiple tests to see how far it can be pushed: Human: Sustained DPS - 324 Changeling: Sustained DPS - 767 Those tests were both done without using not 100% active buffs (So no active hybrid, destiny, summons etc) as otherwise Changeling comes out miles ahead as you can easily destroy a pylon within the time frame of hybrid being up 24/7 which sky rockets it even more. So although Shin isn't 100% right, you are fighting at less then half the DPS of a Changeling, and that is with Changeling not being the best DPS in the first place so you are doing less then half the DPS of a sub par DPS AT. And with procs in the forms of changeling you are getting healed and a bit of end every other time you shift form so that helps keep you alive, also allowing you to use taunt and (For Peacebringers) their dwarf aoe attack to taunt. But saying all that, and I may get a bit of hate for this, but play how you want ❤️ If you want to play a human only that is fine and 100% okay, but it does mean others are allowed to not bring them along to end game content (Which most players don't even do so no loss 😂) I understand the desire of the original post and I do think there is a middle ground that can be reached ❤️

I do fully understand the desire to not have to take the form of the dwarf and nova as a lot of people dedicate a lot of time into the costume ❤️ I would personally prefer a "Minimal FX" option when it comes to the forms where you still have a bit of detail of the form but it doesn't overwrite your costume (Tentacles out the back for nova, Dwarf ethereal power gloves)

Just tried a few different versions and yeah doing it within 1 macro doesn't seem possible, However! We can turn it into a rotating macro if you know how those work? If not it might be simpler to do it the way you are doing now ❤️

How could you tell!?!

I am Goddess Laucianna the Peacebringer ❤️

I form in the SG base for a multitude of reasons ❤️ 1 - Allows me to get a full league before we leave (Unlike zones like RWZ) 2 - Portals to each other zone so it takes 5 seconds to grab a HVAS or get your 2x xp modifer 3 - You can form co op teams in there so not really a downside. Without wanting to come across as hostile, you just need to copy and paste the code posted in the advert? I wouldn't of thought that was too high a barrier (Though people often struggle to press the green enter button 🤣)

If you show me your power bar hun and where you want the power to be for switching out of nova, using a heal, then switching back into nova I can write up a macro for you ❤️

The crown is yours king ❤️

AA is coming in here to take first spot in every AT like a badass 😄

I would of thought for a vault dweller, beam rifle (Energy weapon) Super reflexes (Lucky dodging) sentinel. Or a Beam Rifle/Traps corrupter/defender for gadgets.

Updated - 10/06/2024 - Updated my build to build number 23 ❤️ - Lauci x

Normally cause I just chill in the TF mode whilst things recharge XD I lazy lol

@Bionic_Flea do we need to record us speaking to tin mage each time or can we just have the limits shown in video above our action bar like the picture below?

I would love this as a step up from PI Missions ❤️ Especially in more open maps that are not small caves 😄

I am all for this idea ❤️ See no harm in it myself either

Yeah it was a bug sadly, I only found out after they removed it 😞
