WindDemon21 Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Yeah I'm still reading but earth blast outside of not getting stone spears for the tier 1 (GRRRR) earth blast looks AWESOME! That cone was my number one wish, hopefully the "throw sand" animation like energy torrent etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WindDemon21 Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Sleep [Focused Feedback: Sleep and Placate] Player sleep powers are now Auto Hit. This only impacts powers that have a 100% chance for sleep and are not Sleep over Time. This change impacts all player versions of the following powers (unless noted otherwise) : Blind (AoE segment, main target still needs a hit check before this can trigger) Blinding Powder Chilling Ray (Sentinel only power) Flash Freeze Frozen Aura Mass Hypnosis Mesmerize Salt Crystals Siren Song Sleep Grenade Spore Burst You forgot static field. Which also needs to work for dom. But given sleeps already, they should ALL be mag 4 IMO. So guarantees sleep on random mobs but obv sleep stiill breaks easy in combat.

Night Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 (edited) The fixes to missing tracks in zones are awesome, it's been years since those tracks worked! Now we just need a fix to make the music tracks in districts in zones stop and give way to the track of the district you just entered, as they used to. Even back on live this was a bug that kept coming back, but when it was fixed, you'd be able to fly across a zone and each time a new district name popped up, the previous currently-playing music track would cut and the track for this new district would begin playing and that was awesome, and didn't cause potential tone clash of say, playing the Atlas Plaza upbeat happy music when entering the rundown Hellion-infested warehouse district of Atlas Park.

Wavicle Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Looking really good. I should be able to start testing today. Short list of things that are NOT in the patch that I really wish were: Force Field update Empathy update Regeneration update Mastermind pets all being even level Council update Council Ascendant Shield animation fix Jump Pack/Double Jump icon blinking fixes But seriously, great patch, looking forward to playing with it! 1 Wavicle's Guide To What Really Matters: What Needs To Be Done On Every Toon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It specifically says it does not affect powers that are Sleep over Time, which is what Static Field is. Rerolling far too often, even by this game's standards.

Coyotedancer Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 (edited) Ha! FCM was looking at Live on Ruby. That said... I'm surprised there's still no Devoured defeat badge. Seems like it would have been the perfect time to add one. Edited November 5, 2021 by Coyotedancer Taker of screenshots. Player of creepy Oranbegans and Rularuu bird-things.

xl8 Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 (edited) Dual Blades combo system finally fixed! Some "new" costume pieces! More blaster powers?!! Would have liked to have seen Sonic Resonance powers (cooldown), Regen (back to old numbers-ish), Forcefield revamped, and Mercs problems addressed, but can't have it all. Doms need more powersets. Thx for this Edited November 5, 2021 by xl8 To include more powers needing a tweak 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh i'd rather have the consistent to hit and then the to hit on the build up lowered. (even 1% just to allow the gaussians proc be slotted) That way your fast snipes can be more consistent without having to delve into tactics. As it stands i'm super psyched about earth blast, and stone/stone scrap sets, but blaster secondary earth seems pretty meh to me. Most of it is the same as stone melee which is better on melee classes IMO. The resist to -to hit is nice thoguh.

Comparing it to other sets it's pretty easy to see why this is not going to happen. Devices gets a toggle with +ToHit but it does not get Build Up. Tactical Arrow gets a toggle with +Acc and gets Upshot. I believe the power is correctly designed as is.
