ninja surprise Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 Sure would be sweet to have a Hami-O enhancement that does Acc/Rech. There's a handful of powers that don't take sets and would be fine with a single Acc/Rech enhancement. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FupDup Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 There's already the D-Sync Provocation for this, but they're hella expensive. Closed Beta Discord Invite: https://discord.gg/DptUBzh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudra Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 D-Sync Provocation. It has Taunt, Placate, Accuracy, and Recharge +33.3%, and doesn't need to have a taunt or placate effect in the power to slot it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're expensive because they have no HO counterpart and are only available from the Aeon SF. There are 11 types of HOs but 20 types of D-Syncs. Most of the other D-Syncs with no HO counterpart are also pricey. Uuniverse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yomo Kimyata Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 I’d really like to see an A/E, either DSO or HO. 1 Who run Bartertown? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tidge Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 Accuracy/Endurance is definitely a piece I crave... typically I will have AoE attack powers on low DPS characters who specifically want a piece like that for %proc attacks. Similarly, would it have been the end of the world to also have an Endurance/Recharge (only) Hami-O so we weren't all chasing D-Sync Decelerations? An Accuracy/Threat piece would have been nice, as there are plenty of Threat powers that are not Auto-Hit, and I've seen a few builds with Taunt auras that could probably use one. See also Threat/Endurance for toggles. I realize that PVP concerns put a real whammy on all things "Taunt", but if the Homecoming team can expand the number Endurance Modification sets, surely there is some room for new Threat pieces. I think it is crazy that there are no Accuracy/Threat, Endurance/Threat, or Accuracy/Endurance pieces in any Threat set. Even the Fear sets have those types of combinations! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yomo Kimyata Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 If they had made the Deceleration DSO Slow/Accuracy/Endurance then all would be right in the world. Who run Bartertown? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure it would increase the availability of acc/recharge but given the amount of potential drops off Hami, I see it being equivalent to say a microfilament. If you can't keep in business off that profit margin, you might have to diversify your investment portfolio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe this is just me assuming but you've been here for years, just as I have, and I have difficulty imagining you really need the influence at this point. I could definitely be wrong, perhaps you're not an avid marketeer or don't play at max level for the expanded drop lists and increased influence rate that much, maybe you don't farm. Last time I checked a Microfilament was still trading for more than a Winter IO. I mean the cost of a provocation is definitely outside the reach of your typical player, and most players will likely get them running ASF's. Is there any other reason besides profit margins that you wouldn't want to make this type of enhancement more obtainable to the general player base? Realistically, this post is another theoretical discussion, as the likelihood of new HOs being released is miniscule, so I am more interested in learning the perspective of people that would be opposed to this kind of request (which I would argue would be a QoL improvement for the majority of the player base).

Uun Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 26 minutes ago, arcane said: A Microfilament is worth pennies compared to getting a lucky Provocation drop. No thanks. There are 11 types of HOs and 20 types of D-Syncs. All of the HO types are duplicated within the D-Sync types. You already have the chance to receive an Acceleration when you run Aeon (pooled with Microfilament on the AH). Rather than increase the HO list to 20, perhaps the answer is to reduce the D-Sync list to just the 9 unique drops. This would effectively increase the supply of those items, as you would no longer have a chance to receive the 11 HO duplicates when running Aeon.

I don’t have plenty of money. I’m sitting on about 100 mil of free cash at the moment because I spend my cash. I have some indicators of wealth for being around awhile (lots of alts, mini modes, etc), but the desire for more cash is there. I guess there’s not a reason besides profit margins, no. Unless you count that I simply don’t mind the game having a couple items here and there that take more than an hour to acquire. Other MMO’s have things like legendary items that require weeks of work. If the Provocation market changes, that pretty much only leaves aether particle items having any significant value.

I think that's a great idea, but it provokes a question: Does this mean the plan is to have Hami versions of all unique Dsyncs? Or am I just speculating here? Thanks Fault.

I just haven't been active in the game the last couple of weeks. Been pretty busy with work and the 1 year old around the holidays. I suppose I should check the patch notes and discord. Edit: I I just read through the notes. Thanks for asking the question I would have if it wasn't already answered.

Hedgefund Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 The tears of the "but muh inf from provos" crowd are delicious. By the way I stand to lose a lot of FMV (got a few lvl 53s I rotate to active characters from inactive ones) from a provo crash and I'm a-ok with that.
