i will switch only when there is absolutely no other option, i don't like the HC look or set up, and only use it now to check markets on a second account so i don't have to keep changing log in info, i'd rather wait even if it's 24hrs to not be forced to use that HC launcher which should say something

did this just kill tequila support? it keeps saying to update before launching the game (which i keep doing) and wont load, the HC launcher works but i don't like that launcher

I intentionally avoided reading a lot of the body of the posts since I haven't run the arc yet, but if we're forced to get a zone change, can we at least get a generic store/quartermaster that sells enhancements in the area? I'm not a fan of changing things in general, but the last time i went there i planed ahead and bought SO's for the slots i would unlock... to have them go red before I could slot them, meaning i had to buy them off the /ah

I was in RWZ testing on the targeting dummies with bots fully upgraded, and after about 10 min of testing, which included resummoning bots, re-slotting bots etc i still hadn't seen the assault bot actually use conserve power and was ending out even at 80% end reduction

where can i turn off the taunt message i get on every attack i make with my brute, and turn back on my white absorb numbers?

not sure if the link i shared is enough before

I don't mean the "hey this thing is happening RIGHT NOW" message (and then killing time reading the forum post to figure out what's going on). i mean an actual pop up window when you get into the game like there was about the new issue in beta, or when the donation window opens. it doesn't share the same folder for me, since the only way i could ever find the screen shots was because on tequila there is a button you ca click that opens the screenshots directly, and when i took screen shots with the new launcher i had to go to tequila to open the screen shot folder and they weren't in it

I wouldn't have made it in time anyway (it would have been nice if there was an in game pop up to let people know this was going to be a thing) but but I don't even know how to get the screen shot up here, took a minute just to read the rules and by then i was 4th 😕 but this does raise the question I was trying to find the answer for I guess, which is, where are screen shots saved on the new launcher? I had to go back to tequilla to take and find screen shots

I fell the same way that it feels like every set is being "brought into line with existing sets" (even if that means changing 2/3 sets to match 1/3 of them with the ST and AoE coming at the same levels, same with blaster versions of build up changing to all come at the same level, makes each set seem like a less interesting pallet swap I didn't do all the math and measure times down to the second on runs, but just for a 'feel' perspective it's lackluster and more boring than the TW's I already have chaining a powers time from 1 second activation to 1.1 etc might not be too noticeable, I really hate the dmg and end reduction with momentum though. I made a Dark/TW tank specifically because people QQ over end costs all the time and because I've never seen anyone in game use that combo, now it's just another that will fade into blandness. yes TW had high damage, but it also had high end costs and if you missed you had another slow heavy attack again and again until you got that hit (yes i understand real world physics that just swinging the TW hit or miss would add momentum, but I also understand that in the REAL world you wouldn't use a slab of concrete on an 8' poll in combat either) NEEDING to hit to build momentum, and the high end cost felt like a justification for that high damage, on top of it's naturally slot out of momentum attacks. if changes had to be made I'd rather see a slight changes to slow it down and keep that damage again a .1 activation time not that noticeable, keep momentum versions of attacks with the same damage, but same end cost, have taunt, rend armor, and crushing blow REMOVE momentum since the don't involve swinging the weapon seems like it would be justifiable and bring the over all DPS down but not break what made the set feel special I'm really not looking forward to the inevitable kinetic melee changes either, yes, it "under performs" mathematically but i rolled my kin melee character up because they are FUN and have a distinct look and feel about them, not because I want to be able to solo a pylon in record time or have an AoE farm machine. the fun and uniqueness of sets seem to be getting put to the side in order for them to all perform the same, great if you only have 1 character maybe, but makes alts much less fun and interesting

I don't think any consideration has been put in to balancing around SO's for a while, or even +0/x0 settings, that seems to be what lead to the whole tank rework debacle in the first place, complaining that brutes can get to the same resist as tanks... ignoring that a tank could do it with SO's and a brute needs sets to get there this change again just furthers making tanks farm equipment, for low lvs and at +0/x0 tanks are going to suffer with longer cooldown on shadow maul since you aren't fighting enough mobs to need the increased area. at lower levels or without sets you aren't going to have the deffence to pull off +0/x8 where the damage really improves, especially how much longer it takes waiting for the attack to come up now. keeping the recharge time, area, and damage the same, but reducing the cast time would have seemed more ideal to me as it would have been a flat net gain both for aoe and ST attacks, now it's a hindrance to ST and AoE damage unless you artificially inflate the number of mobs you're fighting, and even then it's still increasing overall AoE output at the cost of ST dmg and anyone playing the game at default settings

anyway the "ranged only" could be dropped and/or only apply to pets told to stay in a certain spot? it seems every change ignores that low levels also exist, when my mercs have burst and brawl i'd much rather them move in to brawl rather than stand there waiting until burst recharges, something walks to melee them and they attack with brawl, or me having to manually move my pets into melee range when their other attacks have not recharged yet

just me? or does dark hela look an awful lot like the marvel character hela...

a cor might get the same RA's but they don't get the same buffs for fort, heal, leadership bonuses, or debuffs from attacks, on a smaller team an emp can keep cycling fort or even stacking fort for a much higher deffence bonus than a cor, as well as healing more and debuffing more with attacks, so while some might count them as "just a healer" that's not an accurate assumption, nor is it fair to say cors are more "powerful" since a deffenders "power" comes more in the form of buffs/debuffs than a cor i would also like to see the 0 builds, as well as power pools, epic/patrons, and SoA bane/crab/soldier fortunata/night widow/widow breakdowns
