it sounds alright, however its extremely doubtful to get more than 1 respec from them for 2 reasons

1. changes their plan for them, the devs originally planned for each trial to award only a single respec period, no more no less
2. they would have to altar the villain trials too so they could award multiple respecs too

other than that i agree they should be made less boring lol
the trials should not be made harder as they should be doable by toons running on gimped builds needing the respec

if you right click on the icon in the incarnate window you can look at the detailed info which shows all the powers they have

a large majority of the info is not posted anywhere due to the sheer amount of it

i have many personal farms in AE that i use if i wanted to farm in AE, but i also have plenty of different toons with normal farms to switch around to what i feel like and when

for non AE i have toons with the snake, liberate tv, and eliminate demons farm mishs

for AE, i have maps built for fire armor, elec armor, ice armor, anything good vs smash/lethal, lowbie, and one which has a ton of very easy AVs with the mob built for smash/lethal

steelclaw wins the thread

the softcap to foes on an incarnate trial is around 59% def, so you would still be WAY over that without slotting for defense on kuji in retsu

sunstorm always felt like a fairly generic PPD PB thats an EB/AV

on the arachnos side of things, kind of got me there, i think the only signture that looks fairly generic would be regent korel for AVs, and i think there is an EB ranked bane spider executioner (night widow nocturne is pretty good for generic night widow, but that will limit your arc to a specific lvl range)

thats all i can think of though but i know it doesnt cover as much as we could do with custom enemies

no probs here, but then again i dont use time cards

if your account expired then you just applied the card, it might take a little for it to process (just throwing out guesses here lol)

the only problem i have with seeing 2xp more often is that it wouldnt be a special event anymore, it would become the norm, and then once thats norm the players would then ask for more events and it just wouldnt work

it would be nice to see 2xp more than 2x a year, but its also nice that 2xp is not too often because then it wouldnt be special

if 2xp became the norm, you would see the same population balance as it is on non-2xp weekends, also making 2xp the norm would drive market inflation through the roof since everyone would be raking in a LOT more inf but not getting any more drops than normal

the only time i usually talk about it is when someone is asking a question about it

i usually reserve all other talk about AE to the MA arc finder channel

being earth in particular you shouldnt have problems perma mezzing a spawn and keeping things locked down so i would focus more on defense, tough should be enough to divert most dmg that comes through

my earth/fire dom has < 12% defense and almost no resistance to anything and i can still run x6 or higher spawns fairly easy because i can perma stalagmites and with perma dom that stuns entire mob including bosses, i usually use earthquake as more mitigation and quicksand to keep things from running and let my stone pet take most of the aggro

for a dom the primary thing to build for is perma dom, once you have perma dom you will be able to lock spawns down easy and a large majority of aggro wont even come your way, defense would be the second thing to build for since it would help divert some of the incoming dmg

now im at my computer and had a chance to look at your build in mids, it looks like you will be skimming on perma dom, it also looks a tad low in terms of defense, smash/lethal are only reading at around 26% which helps, but wont be too noticeable

if you want i can try to see what i can do with the build, idk how well i can keep the cost down (most poeple who know me know i tend to make semi expensive builds lol), just be sure to list powers that you would definitly like to see such as a specific travel power or epic pool

the avid reader badge can be gotten outside the tutorial by talking to prometheus after you have completed at least one incarnate trial (any trial)

heh i was there on my ill/cold troller, was pretty funny

i also think your font looks pretty neat lol

since i cant fully look over the build, it looks like your not using purples, while it will be possible to still get perma dom that way, it is a lot harder and makes the build tighter

a quick FYI, perma dom requires around 125% global rech, with hasten you can usually get perma dom and perma hasten at around 110% rech (i personally like to perma without hasten since i can only put 1 power on auto, i mostly use hasten at that point to give me a nice large buffer for -rech)

the only comments i can make on this right now is the basilisk gaze chance for rech slow is kinda pathetic and barely if ever noticeable and i would switch it out for something else

also on your flight power it has the BOTZ kb protection, if you are aiming for perma dom, you wont need it since domination has kb protection, i would switch that to a winters gift IO for slow resist (-rech can make you lose domination when perma, slow resistance will help prevent it)

ill take a closer look at the build a little later when im at comp with mids on it lol
