Wait another one?  What now?

 

I have so many potential respeccing and new toons that I might roll that I might just give it all a pass and play the old ones as-is.

I have the alts under control.  I swear.

 

Granted I have like a lot of Dual Pistols characters . . . three DP Blasters (MC, Time and Ninja), a DP/Kin Corr, a Time/DP Defender . . . crap I don't have a DP Sentinel . . . and Sentinels are getting love . . . So I could make a DP Sentinel and it would be for testing . . . yeah that's it.

 

Looks at watch to see how much longer before leave work . . . excellent.

 

 

 

Dual pistols on Sentinel's is surprisingly good.  It's particularly sexy with super reflexes, energy aura, or invulnerability (from my stable anyways).  Bio is ok, but a bit squishy for a melee nuke.

 

Of all the sentinel blast sets I have played dual pistols the most fun and it never gets old.  It does lean a little heavy on procs, so the day that system gets revamped will probably sting.

Is that really going to be a thing someday?  I've heard the rumor, but never something solid.  You think there are angry posters now, just wait.

I know absolutely nothing but there are some builds/ATs that can do some pretty amazing things with procs.  Whether that merits a rebalancing is debatable though.  I enjoy it while it lasts.  I for one love throwing out fully procced put Carrion Creepers in large spawns and seeing all the orange numbers 🙂

Something about exclusivity being removed:
 

 

Does this apply to Dark Armor stealthbpowers as well?   
 

Nvm i read it.  Slightly useful….wait no not useful for Dark Armor.  I was going to say to mule defense but the early morning fog cleared and i realized i do not build defenses on Dark. 
 

Overall a reasonable power alteration and completely weak sauce for most applications

I don't see myself changing anything I currently have... although I might make a sentinel and then never feel the need to play anything else ever again.

I may be wrong but the Sentinel upgrade looked...okay?  Not OMFG I Gotsztah haz

 

I have an Elec/Temp Blaster that will (obviously) outdamage any Sentinel.  Played to it's strength it can easily out survive any Sentinel as well.  Do not see that changing.

Page six-ish apparently. But that's only coming in spring-ish.

I am surprised they brought this out so quickly. I look forward to reading the Sentinel pages over the next couple of days... also, I really hope that Mids is updated soon so I can start on my respecs.

 

I was really excited for Illusion Control on Dominators, but it is more of a ST traditional control set than the chaos control of the troller version... so I think I may pass...

Just saying pushing out page 5 as fast as they did seems very rushed.

 

There was some stuff in there that I personally didn't think was ready for production but then again, I guess we'll see how it pans out.

 

It was rushed, but rushed for a reason and not a random decision. Faultline is off and away for a while due to RL and he was/is the compile guy so until he is back no more patches.

 

So Page 5 had to be done before he left.

Is there even a vaguely-recent MIDs or Hero Designer anymore? I'm still on 2.7.2.10 and the only one I saw people using at one point was throwing a virus scan issue (prob not a virus, you know how AV software can be overcautious).

 

But I've been praying for an I4-compatible Mids/Hero Designer, and now I guess we are in I5. The one thread or two I see about it looks old, with the most recent comments being vague. I mean, I havent looked this week, but .....

 

I wonder if there ever will be a Mids/Hero Designer for I5. I used to love doing all my toons on paper anyway, writing down columns for all the numbers and totaling them up and stuff. Good times. :)
