I know I sound like a doomer, but I feel they doing this system for hardcore players. If I play trials for more than a month, twice in a day, I may be able to get "some" armor parts, and choose between what I want more, the armor or the powers?
That sounds pretty bad to me, and the fact they seems to not listen to player base sounds even worst.
Lets see how this go live...

Edited title.
I posted here because posting in suggestions is just silly. Devs seems to never look at that part of forum.
Also I think this is important matter.
Im so dissapointed with the crazy prices of armor, auras, etc...

This include:

Ascension armor
Ascension radiance armor
Auras
Chest emblems
Trails auras
Costume change emotes
Emotes

Yep, every new Incarnate aesthetic stuff with insane prices in beta.
For players that still want to enjoy playing their characters (plural, GG Im looking at you) and content aside just 3 trials.
Also for players that want to spend every reward to craft Incarnate habilities above common.
For solo players that cant even dream about to unlock this stuff.
For loyal playerbase that see the game they always loved becoming a grind fest to get the cool stuff like other thousand asian MMOs.
And for players with a normal life that cant play trials 10 hours each day of the week.
For 8.99 $ throw us this bone, so we can enjoy the new awesome armor and auras without hating the Incarnate system and who decided those were fair prices.
I would pay blind for it, at least I would enjoy it that way.
Otherwise I dont think I can ever unlock it

I guess we can let Vigilantes/Rogues convert 50 merits into 1 astral merit in a 24 hours timeframe.
I think you can buy those Incarnates auras, vouchers and armor stuff with astrals too, just the prices are higher?

My thread is open to everyone suggestions.
I just want to show the devs some alternatives for solo players, and alternative ways to unlock and craft Incarnate habilities, without scrapping the system.

I would love 1 A Merit x 2 Empyrean merits, but that maybe is too optimistic.
I wanted to keep the suggestion realistic.
Empyrean and Alignment merits are bot Special currency so... Why not?

It could be a path for solo players.
They can play tips and morality missions solo and convert:
A Merits > Empyrean merits > Threads and then unlock and craft habilities out of the trials.
And they can only get 1, once in 40 hours... So its not a way to exploit the system.
Also theres an alternative to the only 2 trials... (I know we gonna get another one soon btw).

Pity I didnt make it before.
Now Im free of Tarzan scream!

Nice costumes.

I uninstalled Ati components and everything, then instaled Catalyst 11.4, just with the drivers and seems to be working as always.
I guess it was a bug from 11.5.

For example I see the Wentworths vendors with the skirt transparent. Some contacts with trenchcoats too, Witch boots too, but are only transparent from knee to feet.
Im using ATI Radeon HD 4650 1 GB DDR2, Catalyst 11.5...

Pyronic is awesome but same animation of fireball is meh.
Ionic is my favourite animation.
Cryonic is cool but powers like Water spout are more visually impressive.

Maybe is an ATI bug, but I see some costume parts transparent.
Anyone else?

Now with the new trail auras added to the game with I20.5 we really need an option to turn off some FX like:

Power pools: Hasten, superspeed, maneuvers, etc...
I want to use superspeed with the new electric trail aura, but without the golden cloud of fire of course...
Same for fly and, lets say rainbow aura. Just turn off FX for pools or give us an option to do so. That way we can handle our character design much better.
It doesnt make sense that sprint, flight or superjump got a rounded aura around hands and feets...

Teammates buffs: Sometimes is just to much stuff VFX happening. An option to turn off teammates buffs would increase graphical performance and would be better for visuals, sometimes it doesnt make sense to have an Ice armor tanker surrounded by flames from thermal radiation.

Ok then we need I21.
"Scrappers rule the world" would be the name with:
Ice melee/ Ice armor.
Whips/ Ninjitsu. (Whips would be using existing demon MM animations, would be a close melee set with some range like claws or kinetics, and different skins for the whips: chains, vines, leather whips, silk strip...)
Energy melee/ Energy armor.

Also new APPs:

Electric mastery
Munitions mastery (Dual pistols ranged stuff)

Life would be better!

I just hope the prices are not too high!
20 Empyreans merit for a single costume part sounds crazy to me. I hope thats not the real case...

I also have Obliterations and Touch of death...
Kinetic combat are expensive, but they will come with time.
Thanks everyone, now everything is clear.

I forgot to mention the has 1 set of kinetic combat (more in the way), steadfast +def Unique and 3 sets of reactive armor too.
I think I will go with fighting like I thought in first place.

I need to improve the survivability of my main.
She got Total radial revamp, so healing flames are up pretty fast as well as consume, and she got all healing, recovery and endurance Unique procs...
But her defenses are low for a scrapper.
I think both leadership and fighting consume same endurance per second, and its not a problem to get punch to unlock the other fighting powers...
The thing is I need more defense, she does plenty of damage...so...
What would you guys do?
Thanks in advance.
