Is anyone else mostly waiting for the changes in i15 to come out before they decide to continue working on Story Arcs in the AE?

Seems kinda counter-productive to start a project now when there are so many changes about to go through.

Or has the general interest in creating a project period tapered off?

[/ QUOTE ]

I haven't been playing the game at all for the past three weeks. I'm not really motivated to play MA arcs since they gutted the MA badge content.

The two arcs I have published are going to have a few changes to them once I15 hits. Other than that, my interest in the MA right now is almost zero.

[/ QUOTE ]

2 of the 3 arcs I have published were changed significantly enough by the patch updates to make me not want to participate in it until adequate documentation is released and maintained.

I've basically had to suspend the 2 arcs with warning notices since the careful balancing that I had worked into the arcs were totally upended by undocumented changes in the patch updates. Posting here did not have any effect upon the devs in prodding them to document said changes, and whether they are permanent or bugs. As well the arcs had gotten invalidated because of the overlimit text bug on default descriptions, which no warning was given either.

I didn't bother trying to fix things since a further patch or update may make things worse wrt to balancing or something entirely different.

I think these types of changes are entirely indicative of the present silo mentality of the devs and resulting short changing of the playerbase in nerfs, punishments and overall communication.

Quite a few arc writers were put off by the numerous undocumented changes without adequate redname response to continue with it currently.

No one can tell whether a change is a nerf or a bug in MA since it seems no redname can make any comment on what is really happening. Dropped maps and rescued allied 'exemping' without any response from any redname in the official thread is enough for me.

That, combined with the cone of silence surrounding pet nerfs and MA bans is quite enough to dampen my enthusiasm for trusting the devs to preserve my MA mishes with respect to content and balance.

This is true, though it must be noted that I'm considerably less nice to Kiwi's than Aussie's.

I'm glad those Australasians have their own subcommunity. It must be hard to speak Chinese with an Austrian accent.

Yeah... don't get me wrong, I love the idea of power customization (depending on how it's implemented anyways). However, it'd be nice to be able to try new, interesting things instead of doing the same stuff just with different colors. Who knows? Maybe we'll get both.

[/ QUOTE ]
I doubt the entire issue will just be that. I'd frankly be amazed if the issue didn't at least have some new story arcs or a new TF or something.

[/ QUOTE ]

the new issue will also have "Customer Service" proliferation.

Aside from the trolling, you should try to post on the Mac subforum for better response if you think it is a mac specific issue. As far as the mac client is concerned, I have seen a non responsive enter key or inability to chat so far.

Fire/kin is a late blooming set. You're best off to find a team in order to amp up the damage/mob size so you can focus on buff/debuff and control.

Most of fire/kin damage tools come later and tend to be more multiple target focused, or will be endurance heavy, or both.

Ring of fire is a valid attack to set up containment. Respec out of it later or keep it for set bonuses or if you exemp a lot (task forces etc.)

[ QUOTE ]
see that is something I have been debateing. if I run tough, weave, combat jumping, and hotfeet at the same time i tend to burn end really fast like withing 10 to 15 seconds. I have stamina 3 slotted for end reduction with 25 lvl ios. I could pop some 30's int there but no sure its that big of a difference.

[/ QUOTE ]

4 slot performance shifter including the chance for +end in stamina. Numina and miracle procs in health. Still sucks endurance until you get transference.

I'll give an extra 100 million bounty to every redname that contributes a caption to this pic.

Ah, got it. Thanks.

Open with flashfire or cinders. Then spam fire cages and hold bosses if necessary while interleaving /kin powers as necessary. Leave hotfeet on while standing in the contained mob. No point in SBing imps nowadays.

North America and Western Europe are the hardest hit by the current recession. Least affected is South Asia. Most affected local regions are the places that ran up property values in the last 5 years. The bubble has burst in those regions and taken down the economy with it, including Wall Street and heavy industry, especially those centered around cars.

Best places to weather out the recession are China and Canada.

Either leave the game or get over it. Whats done is done. It all sucks but I think the majority of people want to just get past it and are sick of stupid drama. $15 bucks a month does not give you the right to say what another can or can not do.

I've stayed out all these threads but it just annoys the crap out of me...

This is exactly the attitude that allows you to get walked on. Just hope that the person stepping on you never wears stilettos (I'm looking at you, enri).
