basically the reason appears to be:
whenever a costume piece has been changed, and there have been a few, there is an uproar from the people who liked it as was.
just like powers, you and I may not like piece X as it is, but someone does. They don't like the thought of them changing.
Add , don't change existing is the bets guideline -
If you don't plan on exemping a lot then get the level 50s
Its really a question only you can answer about what and how you play your character. -
Going back to the start of my recent tracking (this spans a couple of incremental builds)

Minion should be 2.67% I'm seeing 2.74%
Lt should be 5.33% I'm seeing 5.19%
Boss should be 7.99% I'm seeing 8.07%
Salvage
Minion should be 8% I'm seeing 8.13%
Lt should be 10.64% I'm seeing 10.69%
Boss should be 25% I'm seeing 23.16%
Common:uncommon:rare recipe ration should be Common is 78.05%, Uncommon is 19.51%, and Rare is 2.44%
I'm seeing Common 74.6%, Uncommon 19.33%, Rare 6.06% (discounting the 2 purples as we still aren't sure about how they factor in)
I'm seeing more than twice the 'rares' I should on paper, but its not actually outside the 95% confidence interval.
I'm not discounting anyone's perception, but you are going to need good strong statistical evidence to convince me that there is an issue when my own data is showing such close to expected results. -
Why would you need the +regen if you haven't been in melee range of a foe for 120 seconds ?
It may not be ideal, but its not a bad place per se and could provide a good set bonus opportunity. -
Grats Uber.
You should hear my wife when she rolls merits. She has that sort of 'luck' regularly. -
What power have you slotted it in, and what other enhancements are in that power.
The +regen is affected by heal enhancements slotted in the same power. -

Maybe not. But even if we assume there's a further 50% hidden and otherwise not visible, those are pretty low numbers.
On Virtue right now at 8:00 PM CST, redside, I have 310 people. That's at night, on a weekend night. It's usually quiet on Saturdays because people are out and about. -
Time.
Coloring powers takes a lot of time. -

Didnt Bill Z solo all of the Freedom Phalanx TF´s a couple of moths ago?
He did them all in one day - thats hardcore. -
Its an occasional bug.
Logging in a 50 usually resets the flag.
Failing that you have to contact support. -
Brought on my Kin, and as expected Ninja Run stacks with Inertial reduction.
Huge leaps

make IO's match the new exemplaring system of keeping powers 5 levels up
A level 32 IO right now gives you set bonuses when you flashback to the 25-29 tier
A level 35 would not -
Thanks again Fulmens

There will of course NOT be a PVP flag with GR

Universal Travel mean it can go in basically any travel power.
It only enhances the power it is in.
(but not sprint, or prestige/vet equivalents) -

Quote:even in WOW and FF XI and such 'traditional' type MMos I don't know anyone who plays only a single character.Originally Posted by Lighting_Thron
what is so wrong with making the world twice as big for the player, i'm talking about the majorty of the MMOs, people who play with only 1 toon, at 1 faction.
I know they exist (they do in COX *waves to GG*) but I doubt they are a majority -
There really isn't a norm, it is so dependant on how you plan on playign your character.
Soemone like Werner will make sure he has maximised the survivability and damage output, and that will typically mean level 50s.
I tend to grab sets in the 30-35 range, as I do a fairly large amount of exemping with just about all of my characters. Thats a happy balance for me of having good enhancment with a reaosnable range that the set bonuses remain.
At the other extreme, you have people who will set out with say level 18s in a 2nd build just to have the available for a Posi run (or 23s for a CaP redside)
IF (and thats a big IF) influence is no great barrier, then examine the PVP sets at 50. The set bonuses just like purples stay with you when you exemp.
Ballparking you would be looking ata minimum of 500 million inf per power for those right now though. (significantly more for certain sets and over a billion each for certain uniques). -

AND you can actually [walk] down the aisle now -
Run DMC
You have used 5 different custom animations for walk.
(well a guy can hope for lost of customisation can't I) -
As long as a 12+2 offer comes along once every 14 months or so, I'll be one happy camper.
-
Thats exactly the hump I'm trying to get over as well.
Doesn't help that this is a 'parking SG' for alts for just my wife and myself. -
