I'm not following the Galaxy City part.  Is there a place in Kings Row where I should be to see it?

Close to the middle of KR northern wall.  It does not show on the zone map. Currently it now exists, but is not open.  There is a fence stopping people from going thru, with Vanguard protecting it.

Edited yesterday at 01:24 PM by cohRock
clarified that zone map doesn't indicate it

Incredible work. Looking forward to digging in! 👏🥳

Sorry Masterminds, you have my genuine sympathy. Hopefully they give these changes several more passes before going live. Despite sounding positive you'll find they're not good, and in some cases quite terrible.

can you elaborate by providing a few examples?  That’s what the beta is for….Id like to better understand your experiences that leads you to this conclusion.

Check the focused feedback threads on masterminds.  Essentially, new MMs are slightly worse off against even and +1 foes, about even at +2 and +3, and better at +4 and over.

If you have actual examples could you go to the focussed feedback page for the changes? That's what they are there for. "MM's suck now" isn't helpful, but "MM's suck now because..." are 🙂 

[Voltor]

Well just completed a solo run of the Mino and Font to see all the changes to the Font.  Well done!

[AspieAnarchy]

Well son of a bulimic pumpkin...the gates of Galaxy City are creaking back open!

Can the rest of the planned Incarnate system be far behind...???

How fun would that be if this team gets to make their very own itrial conent based off some of their content mingled with old lore.  Plus the experience with crafting the 4stars would really pay out allowing them to push the envelope for any challenging incarnate content.  

 

Also access to the last 4 incarnate powers would be awesome!  They'd likely have to make them have a tied lockout to the current powers so you cant have too much powa to ruin current stuff any further.

General Adjustments

Set Bonuses

• Standard Set Bonuses should now last for the full duration of most summoned pseudopets.

 

Can we get clarification on "most" if this is a general adjustment?..... I know you all have done a lot of work on pseudopets and now there are "true pseudopets" but not "false psuedopets". Pseudo = false so *brain explodes*.

 

Is there an example for which this specific change won't work? Three main questions:
 

• Do Pseudopets affected still have rech+/rech- immunity? (e.g. [Bonfire] can't tick faster with +rech bonuses)
  • Set bonuses pass on.. but current debuffs don't?
• Which Pseudopets aren't affected? Rain of Fire? Lightning Storm?
• Are regular pets affected for non MMs, even in epic / patron pools?

I had trouble testing.... or how to test as well before a couple of... weird events today.

 

[Tubalcain]

ALL set bonuses should apply to pets and at 100% effectiveness.

I think you can have "Mastermind Henchmen now all spawn even level" OR "ALL set bonuses should apply to pets and at 100% effectiveness.".. not both.

 

don't forget:

40% of your Standard Set Bonuses now applies to henchmen that are within range of Supremacy.

I didn't forget. I just don't think it's enough.

Sorry, didn't mean to come off as "MM suck now". It was meant more as a "wow, sorry about your luck.".

People that test will know in advance, and those that find out after the patch will know at that time. I don't have actual examples and the changes were pretty Varied and numerous. I'm not even sure where to start other than just saying "try it and see". In my experience testing 5 different power pairings they all felt inferior to what is current. Currently Mastermind kinda feels bad, which I'm guessing is the reason for these changes.

I encourage everyone to try it out and maybe they will be better suited to explain what feels wrong, or come back and tell me how I'm entirely wrong and it's all butterflies and rainbows now.

As I remember, the Devs have said that we'd get more Incarnate Powers when there was content of greater difficulty that needed them.

 

I don't think adding in +5 to +7 Notoriety is going to be sufficiently that much harder to allow new Incarnate Powers.

 

Think more like @Linea's 801 AE arcs.  The tougher ones.

 

 

[GM Crumpet]

I haven't tried the new difficulty levels, but they aren't compulsory. When I run a team on lower levels I start at +1 and see if we need to increase the difficulty or not. Sometimes it takes a little while for a team to gel and I'll say on the next mission "Increase difficulty?" then let the team decide. When I'm not running a team I've been in incarnate teams where we have romped through on +4 and an increase in difficulty isn't going to cause much problem. I've also been on +4 teams where we wipe constantly and we need to drop it down a notch. As long as the team leader is a reasonable person and not one of those "Do it my way n00b" then it's another option for well balanced teams.

I amde a demons/kin and it did feel weak compared to live. I am leveling on so's just like I do on live.

Reading down the list of everything, I see a lot of HC's pet projects getting more attention, which sure, OK. 

 

Most of those pet projects just don't float my particular boat though so 🤷‍♂️ Some other scattered bits are fine enough.

[Linea]

Angel Hornet was happily crunching some 58's last night.  They are quiet tastey with a little Kentucky Bourbon and Honey Barbecue sauce.

 

later, I took a peak at my mm, testing, poking, prodding, pulling numbers.  At least at 50 it felt fine offensively, and was considerably more durable.  Of course it was never an offensive powerhouse, I hunt almost exclusively +4, and I'm almost always more focused on the armor and durability.
