    How about granting 100 Incarnate threads with the release of i20 next week!!?? >.>

Now you have to pay a premium if you run trials and want to convert threads and it really shouldn't be as high as it is.

    So if you don't have the inf to pay to convert you are screwed and forced to keep running the trials over and over until you finally finish it. Then its the same whole process over and over everytime you want to bring another incarnate through the trials. Unlike now where you can make extra progress by simply converting components that you don't need or shards. It's a time sink, inf sink and a grind all in one. Where as before the only real time sink was waiting 4 weeks to get all of your notices and that was certainly more alt friendly.
    Of course it's a time sink. With the new slots it's time to sit down and think of which toons you want to have all the Incarnate slots for.
    I have 2 toons, maybe 3 that will be partaking in the Trials and working toward the 4 new slots.

    If you are looking to have 10-20 lvl 50's having all the incarnate gear it's going to take a Very long time.

    For me My scrapper and my Kin are going to be my bread and butter of the Incarnate content. I'm fine with that.

    Complaining that the journey to the new Incarnate powers doesn't suit YOUR play style doesn't mean the rest of the playerbase can't enjoy it.

    The inf costs were already dropped by a lot! I think it's at a good level.

    Do the Trials, you'll get the components and other things a LOT Faster that way!

    Woot! I called it!! It might not be Tuesday, but it's next week!!
    Can't wait to start some trials!
  7. Heh! I called it! I knew they weren't going to wait for the Anniversary!

    I'm off Mon-Thurs! Gonna get me some new Incarnate Powers!!

  9. For me it's running my scrapper into a platform filled with Mobs, being rushed by the mobs, and then seeing the pile of bodies at my feet.

    That's feeling Super!
  10. I wonder now if both Hamidon and Cole's life forces are now tied together? Maybe the only way to defeat both of them is to defeat them at the same time?

    I smell a new TF or Raid
  11. Ironically I was doing a Monkey farm and had the tables turned on me.

    Happy Friday!

  14. Thank you all for the kind words.

    Little Adrian is finally home and is doing well. Mommy and Rad are both good, but a little tired. Adrian does like his sleep so we will hopefully get some sleep when he does.

    Pics are coming.. but sleep first...
  15. Justice has a new hero!

    Saturday March 5, 2011 my wife and I were blessed with the arrival of our son Adrian. He is 6lbs, 11oz, 19.5 inches long. Both baby and Mommy are doing well.

    He loves to cuddle and sleep, and I would rate his crying to a Sonic blast for Defenders. My first diaper change for him was an adventure! I didn't know newborns could fill a diaper the way he did, but wow! So while changing him he had his first pee! All over me! It was hilarious.

    Anyway I'm heading to bed to get some much needed sleep.

    Probably right... but you never know, it could be sooner than that.

  18. I'm sure there will be more info to come.

    For the people who are asking if they needed a signed NDA for just i20.. How do you know the testing wasn't for just i20, but i20 and beyond?

    I'll /em wait and see at the sneek peek and open beta.

    I wouldn't really call having purple sets a status thing, cause my first toon with purples was all done over a long period of time where a few lucky drops helped fund them.

    If anything the PVP IO procs are a LOT harder to get than purples.
  20. My fire/shield scrapper in Beast form!

  21. Purchased! Time to go to make my animal toons!

    DBZ ABridged #21

    This season has been beyond epic! The last two episodes have been incredible! Guru is the new Nappa!

    My prediction for Goku's Super Saiyan scene: Krillin somehow gets some Denny's food, and Frieza blows up Krillin and the food.. sending Goku over the edge.

    Happy Monday!

    I work on a 8 Day (12hr shift) rotation that is 2 day shifts, 2 night shifts, 4 days off.
    So my "Mondays" rotate every week.

    /coffee

    My weekend will consist of working. Or since my wife could go into labor any day now I might just become a Dad this weekend!
  25. I did some testing with my scrapper and I don't really have anything to add that hasn't already been said (Beast legs for kilts, losing weapons/shields in beast run are the only complaints.

    I'd love to see the fox pattern for the Wolf head. Doesn't seem like a huge request but something as simple as a pattern will be a dream come true for many.

    I will be getting this pack JUST for the Tiger on my scrapper. I've got a pretty Epic costume all done up.
