Quote:Erm... quite apart from anything else, how does it make a jot of sense for anyone to be 'jealous' of a set that anyone can play? You don't have to unlock Empathy.Most of the anti-healers are just jealous that Empathy is a great set.
oh god I'm posting in a healer thread. -

Quote:Okay.The great thing about this game is you guys. You're more active, informed and passionate than any other MMO community I've ever met.
If you really want something, let us know and we'll do our best to make it happen.
Please hire Samuraiko.
There, I said it. -
Quote:War Witch interview here.
Our last major question was an obvious one that even came up in responses to the panel: what Paragon Studios thought about Champions Online. Far from being a matter of pointing and laughing, Bianco confessed that she herself didn't play, but there were people on the team who did. The team as a whole keeps a close eye on it, as it's their primary competition, but there's no ill will from the studio toward their former officemates. "We still have friends in Cryptic," she said, "and obviously we want them to have some measure of success." -

Quote:The reporter used the word 'abilities' twice, which suggests to me that it's more than just slots. I don't want to go too crazy with speculation though.I've certainly not seen anything that suggests to me that they're not universal slots, but I've also not seen anything to suggest that they are.

From what little we know, the ten Incarnate levels seem a bit different from the ten universal enhancement slots suggested in the survey all those months ago.

'Issue 17 will change Defenders inherent system to make them solo better'

The liveblog is still going on right now. -
'It is something on the slate, but it will be a couple of Issues from now. Base Raids, Items of Power are also planned on being repurposed but fixed.'
Repurposed? Interesting... -

In case you missed it in the PAX thread, and because it's a good old forum tradition to start a new thread with a new issue title in it as soon as it's learned about!

Quote:Hmm. I remember the Praetorian Clockwork that 'don't mess with you unless you mess with them'. And now we have Ghouls, for whom 'killing one of them just makes the others angrier'. Perhaps the aggro mechanics in Going Rogue have been reworked?I just want to know what the collars and wristlettes are for now. And I want to know how accurate the Descript is, especially the "beating one makes the others angry." It would be very cool to have a foe that, if you engage one others in the area get an aggro range bonus (say an "aggro range boost" that extends 100 feet and triples the aggro range) and come after you. It would make them a particularly challenging foe to fight because you'd have to be very careful about your movements and when and where you engaged them or risk massively overaggroing.

Good luck, Niv. You were fantastic. We'll miss you!
