Thanks!  Then why don't they lock this thread and let it die ha ha?

 

I may give 'em guff, but I respect the devs!

I suppose it's a more solid way of recording what we're all considering (rather than creating an echo chamber of their own), as opposed to the constant scrolling you need to do in the Discord channel.

No, I meant scrolling here!  I haven't been over to Discord in ages.

They're on a hiatus (as are Dev Choices and so on) while the Devs/GMs sort stuff out, recruit community members and get their lives together because there's really only 6 of them!

 

Wow!

I knew it was a small group, but I thought it was low double digits.

Makes me even more impressed, and thankful.

Ah, I was being slightly hyperbolic there to emphasize the smallness of the group.  Might be double digits!

I looked back at some of the original posts.  Of particular interest was the "everyone is happy with where Brutes are now"

 

*blinks.

 

Where would you like me to start?  Oh, it doesn't matter.  What you will hear is buff Tanks.

 

But, having given up on the hot mess that Rage was turned into.  How about giving us ATO procs that actually do something.  Useful.  Chance for Fury bonus?  After the nerf bat that Fury was hit with?  Possibly the most useless ATO proc in the entire game.  

 

but it really does not matter.  You heard, should we increase Tanker AOE a little more?  Or maybe bump the power of their ATO proc?  Tough call, either/both are needed.  Both you say?

If this proc was changed to a set-bonus type effect that permanently increased the Fury Cap to 125/150 no matter where it is slotted, would it feel more worthwhile?

 

Assuming Fury gain/losses are percentage based of the whole, so that Brutes could reasonably be seen to hit and even exceed 100 Fury frequently. 

 

Full Disclosure this is an overlty Brute-biased suggestion. I don't care how many Scrappers kick rocks in response.

Here is the bedrock of the problem.  Brutes were bent over and a….   Uh, modifications were made to the Brute inherent to ensure full Fury could not be achieved.   So, any suggestions about Brutes getting that back I file under in the “maybe Santa will bring us something good this year” envelope.  
 

I bring up addressable issues.  Like, hey, you guys made sure Brutes Fury was capped.  And we all cap it pretty easy.  So that makes a Brute ATO proc that gives Fury about as useful as pouring water into the Pacific.  Maybe you could make it useful.  (What the Devs just heard: Hey, can you guys buff Tanks?  Brutes have Fury after all…)

It stopped because the GMs that did it retired. Someone else asked how to get it back and there was a lengthy discussion about interest and willingness to champion projects. No official member of the Homecoming team stepped up to revive it, so I've been doing it Unofficially for the last 38 weeks and still ongoing. I'm always up to new topic suggestions for future weeks. I post each weekly topic in the General Discussion sub-forum.

 

I haven't done it on discord as I don't have a lot of playing time in general, and there's no sticky thread to show the consolidated topics we've had since I took over as once again I've been doing it unofficially.
