Well, out of 26 level 50's, all have a common slotted and maybe nine have an uncommon slotted. Most post-I19 respecs completed. And thoughts to the future are coming up.
Tier 1 alpha? Equivalent of 12 merits. Tier 2? Equivalent of 20 merits past the tier 1. So what of the future, then?
Obviously you'll be able to save up shards and use them for anything. Anyone saving up extra components, or people too nervous that they'll just accumulate stuff they'll never use?
And what about Ham-O's? Anyone taking the component from STF/LRSF instead of a Ham-O? -
elec/elec brute or axe/shield brute are buffy.

I'm up for it.

Got a dam/mez.

Whirling hands is mainly a damage attack that also does a mez. As I said, I could picture placing it in an attack like that (especially an aoe like that).
But for a pure mez attack that does little to no damage? One that you'd put an entire set of Absolute Amazement on? It doesn't make any sense.

I'd agree with you if the end purpose of every altercation was just to mez the opponent. Since they still need to be made dead to get rewards, -tohit helps to land blows you might miss otherwise, even on a stumbling foe.
And again; the duration of the -tohit (even if it works) is LESS then any mez power worth slotting this on. It's a fairly pointless proc.
The only time I can see slotting this (if it worked) is MAYBE on a damage attack that can also take mez slots. But for a mez only power? This is pointless.

You know, I always considered this the most useless proc ever. It's not a major debuff and odds are the mob is going to be mezzed anyways.

Not only are the merit vendors ugly, I also question the sheer number of them. Why are there multiple in some zones? Heck, why are they in every zone?

Quote:IIRC, they've always behaved like this. The mobs have always despawned as the new present came and the mobs have always been of the appropriate level of the zone. I really don't see the issue here.Originally Posted by Doctor_Gemini
That's what they do now, but IIRC awhile back they had to be defeated before a new present spawned.

I ran an Apex last night at 8-815, with 7 and a no-slotter. Im willing to take one or two no-slotters on my apex/tin mages, as long as they can provide some sort of support. Ours was a traps/mercs mm. We had 2 mms on team, a def, a corr, 2 brutes, and a scrappydo, and managed to get a masters of badge and already dead badge as well. Just a heads up for the future.

Always been there.

Quote:Hmmmm. You know, that really seems to be random. Same AV's don't care if you have a toggle on them, some go nuts. I did have Snow Storm on him the entire time. The tanker claimed to be taunting him but they're notorious liars.Originally Posted by EnigmaBlack
When I ran TM with my Dark/Fire corr, I noticed he ran a lot when I had my debuff toggle on him. Once I decided not to use it at all he settled down.

Quote:In my experience, the "WTF THIS IS BS" reaction comes from how well the team does against two things:Originally Posted by Necrotech_Master
the downtime to swap out alpha boosts is 5 min
from the times ive done tin mage and apex tfs, i think apex is way more fun and balanced than tin mage
apex tf is actually fairly fun, challenging but not too challenging, not too much of a grindfest, ect
tin mage on the other hand was like 10x more of a PITA in my opinion and i like challenging tfs, but tin mage was just annoying not fun
the 2nd and 3rd mishs werent too bad, the final battle was pretty epic, but i do agree than bobcat being that overpowered is not exactly enjoyable, i watched a brute get 3 shotted through unstoppable fighting her. the first mish wasnt too bad until we got to director 11, hes not too hard of an AV to fight, but he is insanely annoying because he just runs around like a chicken with his head cut off even when taunted, and i also agree that lvl 54 malta are prolly 10x more annoying than lvl 54 war works. i actually feel that most of the praetorian groups are overall weaker than most enemy groups
The Patches of Death in Apex and the Director Jerk in Tin Mage. Everything else is fairly straight forward and not a pain, even for non-optimal teams.

I love how they're all just cowering in the cubicle WITH A BOMB IN IT. With their backs to the bomb at that. People, just turn around and... Walk out. Just walk away!

Honestly? I found the Goliathes to be far easier then Neuron or Bobcat.
Also, iirc, if you don't attack anyone for two minutes you can reslot the alpha inside a mission. Or is it four?

Director 11 is wishy-washy to me >.> we ran the TF twice to try to get the badge for not setting off any of his trip mines...we didn't die a horrible lot the first time through, maybe 20-ish, but when we tried for a second time to get the badge...EVERYTHING went wrong lol.

I find it interesting the way the Dev team uses their new tech. When ever they come up with a new trick they just love to use the heck out of it. They got dopple gangers figured out, they used it for a whole issue, they get invisible minions figured out, start using those for an issue. Branching dialog trees, etc etc.
Going forward we will see a few more invisible types like this, but more few and far between now that they've been heavily featured.

geez, what were you guys doing? lol
Heh. I've snagged him on a number of task forces the past two weeks. By God, I'll force him to be social if he has to die 100 times for it! Which he may have.Quote:Originally Posted by Crimson Vanquisher

Too bad he had such a lousy experience, though.
It's just that I don't think he'll ever agree to another Tin Mage. :0
