When i de-toggle the shield, however, the attacks function properly with my chosen animations.
Is this a known effect of the shield powersets, or is there something I'm missing? I'm not talking about just the colors of the animations, but the alternate forms, such as the punches in martial arts that can replace the old kicks.
If there is a simple solution that I'm missing; or is just something that shield users have to accept, please let me know.
Thanks in advance.

And since it's a location AoE, it's fairly easy to place in the most optimal spot.

There really is no reason at all that anyone should want a Purpled Out Build, much less "need" as is so often said. In fact, no one really should have to use Inventions at all... everything in this game is completeable with SOs and/or teammates. In fact, the only thing that necessitates their use in PvP even, is the fact that other people in PvP will surely have them.

It is beyond me why they are so sought after, beyond simple vanity. In fact, one of the only reason I even dip into IOs is out of convenience... I know that I will not need to buy many enhancements after I hit 32 (I keep level 35 common IOs in most all of my characters from 32 onward).

Course... it could also be blind luck with opponents not leveraging against SR. There was one /rad that spanked me rather quickly last week.

He simply stated his opinion that the walking animation doesn't really carry as much importance to him as base fixes, and that he would have rather seen base fixes in the patch notes.

This is supposed to be a thread regarding thoughts/opinions on the patch notes, right?

I DO beleive that that rooting thing was a codeing problem as well....and they fixed it pretty damn fast. I was not really trying to start a PVE VS PVPER thing. But on occassion a little lost pver wanders into the pvp section for some reason, and talks ****.

Please, at least try and be constructive. This doesn't mean you have to agree, but try and say something more than "neener neener."
