Psychic Guardian

Psh punching kittens is for middleschoolers with hormones. Pulling converters out of the live build to disappoint everybody is what you all were REALLY up to this morning

I am also quite annoyed after staying up hours past when I should have like a kid on christmas morning for Converters. Grinch-Devs who stole christmas might wanna stay away from my villains and heroes alike until this is rectified .

My sentiments on i22 exactly. The one thing that got my ears perked up was the knowledge that converters were FINALLY confirmed as launching. Only thing I got my hopes up for-not here. I'm also looking forward to Staff, but I heard the confirmation that wasn't contributing to i22 being any good awhile ago .
Now you have to tell us when that IS. lol

And there lies the issue with our Devs. If players are willing to spend money on something they have to find a way to ruin it before releasing it. Because if everyone wanted to throw their money at them for things it'd be horrible for NCSoft .

lol according to the devs yes it is. Since you get one per 1200 paragon points

And I also would've liked to see x25, I didn't pay attention to the amount on beta. That would've been great for us tier9's...but no. I am massively disappointed with everything(not) in i22 today.

He musta flooded it off the screen with that SG chat. Lala speak without "saying something bad"? Unpossible.

And pretty sure I already said it in-game, but Grats DE

Yeah. I missed that memo too . Imagine my surprise when I was stalking Dev forumprofiles and randomly found Posi had his "Lead Dev" forumtitle again lol.

Black friday was the only decent "sale" they had. Nothing seems to go below 50%. It's usually 25% off or less, only 50% off on things that are so high we still don't even buy them at 50% off. It's like people have been saying since the Paragon Market launched; It's like they try to make us not want to spend any money .

Ghost Falcon stated way back that if things didn't sell prices would be re-assessed and possibly lowered to account for it. Someone more obsessed than me can point something out and call me wrong, but unfortunately as far as I remember nothings price has been permanently changed/lowered after it was put on the market on live.

Even if they put these on sale for 50% off it'd be 200 more than I'd ever spend on these. Even the alignment system only got 25% off this week.

They can't be used on a toon under lv20. Or a Praetorian. 2 more things veto'd out of the possibilities of this item....because it'd make people want ot use them? Why would they allow a sold item to be useful? /sarcasm

They could...just like they could've allowed it to let a hero become a rogue with one use. Jeeze it's not like it's not expensive enough to warrant such a broad change. Paragon has become more about quantity than quality since the paragon market was released. I used to say it was the death of the game, but after Super Packs which probably made more last week than the total of all subscriber subs last year combined that's no longer true.

I'm just wondering why they waste the time coding and bugtesting features that marketing then goes and purposely places out of the desired range for 90% of players.

Like (theoretic example)"New to the Paragon Market; pick any desired name you want for a new character, even if taken by another already"-100,000pp. It doesn't matter that an item has been created and given to us if it's in a pricerange to be laughed at.

This. I tested these on beta and was eager to see them go live so I could buy a handful. $10 to flip one toon? Lol. No Thanks I'll continue despising the work required for alignment swaps since that's gonna be the only way they get changed for me. These could have been great sellers, but Paragon Marketeers screwed up another potential goldmine .

AND aside from SSA6(which being VIP I don't consider an addition to the "market") that's the only new thing this week. Was super disappointed when I logged in and hit the featured button at 3am this morning .

Pretty sure the Brute proc only buffs the affected power's Fury generation.
The Kheld, MM&Scrapper are 3 of the only global ones.
Tank=single power +Res proc
Stalker=single power +hide proc(no placate)
Corruptor=single damage proc
Blaster=single damage proc
Defender=single power aoeheal proc
Controller=single damage proc(and all it's IOs buff control not dmg. People weren't happy)

The point is there are a very small number of global ones. And the damage procs are totally different from old ones. Instead of Proc-Per-Cast it's Proc-Per-Minute. As others have said; If it states it will go off 4 times per minute, and you put it in a power whose base recharge won't let it fire more than 4 times per minute before recharge buffs(60/4 base recharge=15sec) it will fire off it's 70/107(if purple) damage 100% of the time you use that power if it isn't an AoE. Arbiter Hawk even confirmed that for us. That makes them way more powerful than the old ones.

Of course it's stupid. The whole TeamUpTeleporter system is *censoring myself* code. It's "working as intended" by the messed up devs point of view. But they're too stubborn and proud of their own intentions for it to ever change it to make 90% of the playerbase actually happy with it*.

*waits for the 5 forumites to come running in to defend how the TuT is god.

He got me to click the thread too. lol.

Sorry I'm not the OP lol, just having an issue that fits this thread perfect so I posted here. The OP said he has an OS that does have UAC.

But the devs definition of the LFG tool working "correctly" just happens to be a way that the playerbase has stated/complained was not something we would ever use in the manner they wanted us to. Hence everyone calling it "broken". People want more details and flexibility before they just hit "join queue" and are locked out of doing just about anything productive during the (quite often indefinite) wait. The flexibility is coming with i22(being able to queue while in missions), but as far as I know the details aren't(how many people are in queue already, etc).

Ok. Making them characterbound and dropping from mobs is indeed one of the stupidest restrictions the devs have ever implemented then . Then next month Posi will be ranting people have 6slotted an ATO set and are "hoarding" 50 Catalysts. LOL.

I just ran the NCLauncher for the first time after that update to their brilliant updater. Now the launcher is telling me there are updates available for beta&test, but I hit update and the update window just pops up saying "Downloading..." with no speed, progress, or file details etc indefinitely. The Launcher's main window also says it's downloading a patch for beta as soon as the launcher opens....but it's not.

(I'm on XP still, so that UAC garbage isn't an issue)

LOL. Last time I dealt with a Dell in my house('06. Whole nother horror story.) we called their "Support"; some guy in Pakistan reading from a script in broken english which would've been a copy/paste answer had it been done online.

Yes, I know someone who rage-boycotted UG for over a month after grinding through a successful undergroundtrial(with no disconnects or afks) and was given an uncommon for her efforts.
