  • Mental Blast (Ranged, DMG(Psionic), Target -Recharge)
  • Psionic Lance (Sniper, DMG(Psionic), Target -Recharge)
  • Psychic Scream (Ranged (Cone), DMG(Psionic), Foe -Recharge)
  • Harmonic Mind (Auto: Self, +Recovery, Endurance Discount)
  • Psionic Nexus (Summon Psionic Nexus: Ranged DMG(Psionic))

HUH? Is this the same as Penny Yin's? It's kind of strange it's only available to two AT's APP.

 

Regardless, I'm happy with a lot of changes. I can't wait to try it out. Also, please buff Broadsword.

How does a scrapper have an ice snipe but blasters do not???

Expand  

Why would Blaster Ice Blast (or any port of the powerset to other ranged ATs) have a snipe? There's two holds in Ice Blast - it's not meant to be like every other ranged powerset. Additionally, every other Scrapper Epic has a variation of a ranged attack or a snipe.

Why?  Not at computer now,  but the super long animation I think bitter ice blast? I like the hold powers. Or replace ice storm. 

Expand  

If you want to advocate for Bitter Ice Blast to get a range increase I'm ok with that but to replace the 2nd hold for a Snipe. No Thanks. To take away the AOE that Ice Storm gives in favor of a single target snipe. No Thanks.

I just think it’s weird scrappers get better ranged powers than blasters. And I mostly scrap. Just an observation. Don’t really care that much.

Traps (Mastermind) - Detonator

  • Recharge lowered to 300s from 600s, endurance cost also lowered to 16.3
  • Removed delay from humanoid henchman bomb placement/detonation, all pets now explode when you click!
  • All Henchman now place the pseudo-pet version of the bomb, hitting all targets for max damage regardless of if they are a minion or boss
Expand  

Why?

 

EDIT: Nevermind, it doesn't sound terrible.

Yeah, I can understand where you're coming from, especially if you're not overly familiar with the powerset.  It may sound weird but, Ice Blast doesn't really need a snipe.   In fact, I can't think of any power I would want to give up for a snipe. 😄

This has also been happening with the Blueside Smugglers ships to and from Striga.

Doors

  • Helicopter mission door NPCs have been fixed and should no longer cause long delays before the player starts entering the helicopter.

Did you all already add an epic pool to sentinels recently?

Expand  

I don't think one was added recently but Sentinels were the only AT with six epic pools. After the patch it looks like everyone will have six except Dominators and Masterminds.

Ice Blast already does top tier single target damage in addition to all its mitigation. Giving it a snipe would be overpowered.

These powers were intentionally omitted from the Bane Mace alt animation by design, as the Bane Mace does not fire bullets or physical ordnance; it's an energy weapon with some support grenades.

 

Expand  

 

I definitely get the motivation thematically, but I still want it :)

Though, even so, it's not as significant given the previous changes to only execute redraw once, IIRC.

I found it. I had to hit the clear button to get it to show up. Though I can't tell the difference between 1 and 2.

Wow. Pretty sure I've been asking for this since live. Would still lose a little DPS (I think) adding it back into BZB scrapper's chain, but it might benefit BZB brute and tank. Especially the tank.

If you mean the Sybil 1 and Sybil 2 chest pieces, I was also confused at first but they it's just that both are completely covered by the opaque version of the sybil costume. If you switch to the seethrough one (Roman Sybil 2) you can see the difference.
