Yeah, that's... not promising.

Working fine for me...

I've never had a kitten hump my leg, but otherwise yeah...

Remind me not to come to your house. I'd rather not have your puppy humping my leg while he kills everyone who's ever been nice to him and turns them into the undead so he can have their stuff.

*waggles eyebrows* How YOU doin'?

THAT is very disappointing. I read that in the list and went "ooh! Something for my mermaid/naiad!" But no. Those look like a bad 50's horror movie costume pieces. They don't look like part of the character at all.

As soon as we get a Baron coat, you may have my tentacles.

That describes just about everyone over there. You think Master Midnight is a puppy? :P

They don't have anything to do with one another. Apples =/= oranges.

Exactly, this is my biggest problem with the system. There's zero transparency, we're left to keep notes and do math and make guesses. That's complete nonesense - Paragon is a BUSINESS here, there's not a single business that I patronize online that doesn't allow me to look at a detailed account of my purchase and spending history except this one.

Hopefully, that will change soon.

I haven't, but good idea. I'll report back on that.

The documentation for what we get when we spend money for this game should be CRYSTAL CLEAR and available at all times.

SPOILER
















She is.

Yup.

For my own peace of mind and my own roleplay, that's exactly what my character went back and did. There's no way I'd be able to leave the zone otherwise.

If a future arc creates a need for me to retconn that little mental note, fine. But seriously, our characters know how to do it. I couldn't not.

This.

When did you become a dev, GG? Your "factual" statements about what is and isn't coming are fairly tiresome.

Also, you are the ONLY person I have ever seen say that the actual storyline for the incarnates is good, so I'd say "most" is pretty accurate, if anecdotal.

I'll second that amen.

Katie needs her own arc. I'm hopeful that whenever the 30-40 Praetorian zone gets added, her issues will be addressed. It's too cruel not to do so.

As to the incarnate system, the "story" that's shoehorned on top of those raids is totally pointless. I'm a story person. I did the Underground Trial the other night because I'd heard that's where the issues from First Ward get wrapped up.

Well, maybe some of them do. I wouldn't know. I was too busy playing the raid content, throwing out heals, rezzes, buffs, debuffs, keeping up with the group, noting which group I was in when we split to pull this or ranged that. I had an extremely competent, kind leader (yay Paladin!) who made the raiding part of it smooth as it could be, but there was absolutely NO TIME to have any understanding of what's going on storywise in there.

The devs need to keep their grindfests simple and give us the opportunity to EXPERIENCE content by keeping it in solo/small-group-able content. Putting it in raid content is a waste of their time and cheats us out of the story.

That's actually something that seriously needs to be addressed - transparency as to when things were awarded, a concise purchasing history. I'm hoping that this is the first-billing-month snafu that will be eased out by the next month, but the fact that we can't look up exactly when we purchased what, not on the market, not as far as points, not as far as perks, is really disagreeable and a very poor example of customer service. It makes me nervous to spend any money at all, when I can't track it unless I keep notes next to my computer.

OMG the sharks!!! I spent SO MUCH time just flying around in the water with the sharks! *delight!* There's no animals in CoX! <3 sharks!

I went into First Ward as a squishy (fire/dark corr) with nothing slotted (literally nothing - I only slot what drops until I can slot 25 IOs, so most of my slots are empty or red :P) and had no problems with it beyond other missions/zones at that level.

My biggest problem was the graveyard mission that combines an aggressive escort NPCs with ambushes. It took FOREVER to move even a few steps, because instead of following me to the next section, my NPC kept running off to fight other groups, and then we would get ambushed. EITHER the ambushes OR the aggressive escort would have been fine - both at once was just terribly obnoxious.

I've also never seen anyone try to take down the Seed, which makes me sad, as it looks awesome.
