I did one mission for Neuron and handed over data to Cole... who is like, "Lol yeah that happens thanks fam," and now suddenly I'm supposed to know all about Primal Earth and that we are going to invade or somesuch bullshit? WTF? Yeah, power has the weakest transition. Go do the Neutropolis Responsibility arcs for a better background.

Early game sucks other than Praetoria. And even that stuff can get repetitive or else defeats the purpose of certain ATs (ambushes gunning straight for your hidden Stalker). DFB is a great way to level up a character to more interesting content in a fraction of the time. I don't really have a dog in this fight as I play on the goon server, but gutting DFB is akin to what they did with Rage. Just removing functionality for some users because others didn't like it.

It doesn't matter that it's all people were doing. People were enjoying it and it was taken away because other people didn't like that they were enjoying it. The gentlest nudge would have been to increase TF or regular non-DFB grouping xp. spectralent posted:New Atlas is okay, and I quite like New King's Row, but there is the relatively fundamental issue that you don't know how your character plays in CoX until you have a full chain, and many classes have internal mechanics that don't become fully realised until they've gotten to higher levels. I remembered recently that SR doesn't get any AOE defence until level like, level 35, and that's far from the worst one. I get not knowing how your powers work as being a concern, but I feel like people could probably just start at level 20 with a chain and their basic toggles without any problems after they've got their first 50 or something; it's not like CoX is a really demanding game that requires iron-clad understanding of it's mechanics. Also, this.

John Murdoch posted:Bullshit. Same exact argument comes up every single time with stuff like this. "But people were having fun, why take that away, why do you hate fun? " Well guess what, if you love DFB that much you can still run it 1-50, it's still in the game, nothing's changed! Lol. Yeah people like getting good experience points in a game that values them. It (was) also a cool way to get four buffs until 22. Nothing wrong with that. Nothing wrong with Kraken farming. Nothing wrong with old school taunt auras. Nothing wrong with Winter Lord farming. Nothing wrong with AE farming. Nothing wrong with letting people enjoy their loving game. At least the devs had the excuse of wanting to milk out subscriptions. HPanda posted:It might sound silly since video games and all, but I really like to read mission text and take time out to read over the speech bubbles. This is pretty much impossible when grouping. Yeah I'm the same. To be fair though, you can read most of it in the Mission window.

HPanda posted:There was that one energy blaster move, nova I think, that would explode grey mobs hilariously far if slotted for it. I think they ended up nerfing it at some point. Haha that's great. I had a good one the other day too. "Redneck Fart LIghter? That's a strange name. Thanks for the help, I guess."

Rad/ has a damage aura, an AoE, and a mechanic where the single target attacks can generate explosions.

I’ve thought about that, and may still give it a shot, but issues I’ve considered include needing to worry about incoming S/L damage (shouldn’t be an issue, eventually) from EM, EleM, or energy blast OR dealing with -end from electrical blast, and having no real counterpart to Burn. Seriously, burn on my rad/fire is by far my most damaging move, and it is up every 5 seconds or so.

Sophism posted:I want to create an AE farm character, and from what I can tell, a Brute with Fire Armor is one of the best at it. I've never tried farming with a staff, but one of the limitations of it compared to rad/ would be the lack of a damage aura and the lack of a true Build Up. The Build Up limitation is remedied (at least partially) by Staff Mastery, but the second damage aura is one of the bigger benefits of rad/ and spines/.

Once I got incarnate stuff (took under two hours farming to go from level 49 to Hybrid unlocked) somewhat slotted I stopped worrying about inspirations altogether. They were just slowing me down.

Spanish Matlock posted:I'm trying to figure out the spines/fire farm situation and like I'm in the 20s but I xp boosted there so I don't have any inf. Like I've heard I'm supposed to slot this dude out with IOs but I don't know how that poo poo works. Ultimately, I made the dude so I can farm influence for my other dudes, because I heard that is a thing. While leveling, just put common IOs or SOs in your stuff. 6 slot spine burst with 3 damage, 1 recharge, and 2 acc, and your two damage auras with 3 damage, 2 end red, and 1 acc. 4 slot active defense abilities with 3 resist, 1 end red. 3 slot stamina with end mod. Prob still will have endurance issues, but you can go to the P2W vendor and turn off rez and mez inspirations to make easy room for the blues.

Look, just do like the rest of us do and make a stalker who is tiny when it's "invisible" and has to fight at normal size until regaining enough power to shrink for a sneak attack.

Yeah one of the first things I do on my characters is bind mbutton to beast/ninja run and lctrl +mbutton to steam jump (until I can afford jet pack). So I get decent speed and jump but if I need a boost in height I can do it quite easily.

winterwerefox posted:i got a friend who decided they wanted to be a melee sentinel. So they took the three powers from fighting and air superiority, and one of the epic pools that gives knockout blow. Really, really really feels like they are going for the 'Im Specul" award. Man, I’m like the only goon (certainly the only one on WS18) that enjoys sentinels, and man that sounds awful. I mean, it can maybe work regardless (Aeric made a mostly melee only DP/nin blaster that rocks) because this game is incredible, but still.
