So after 30-40 minutes of people randomly deciding that they were gonna come on the Sara Moore TF we finally ended up with two teams and 13 people total. One team lead by Morgy which we call Team Failatlife started before us by a fair bit and finished after us by two missions. The other lead by me which we will call Team Awesomesauce finished the TF in 3 hours..here is their story.
The Tale of Team Awesomesauce
So basically the entire TF prior to Ruladak sucks and it's just 14 missions that are hunts or kill alls of various enemy groups such as Nemesis, Rularuu, and CoT so we will just skip to the last mission.
Team Awesomesauce spots Ruladak from afar in the heavy fog(the whole mission is filled with fog and you can't see shit). Sk summons a shivan right in my view forcing me to move up..what a nice guy.
The battle begins..(bonus phantom ass)
It is fierce..
Lime Tank delivers a mighty blow..(Ghost is somewhere off in the distance there killing Rularuu)
The brave fight on despite being impaled..
Ruladak is defeated..he implodes..
Team Awesomesauce gathers outside..victorious..
From left to right..I think..FlammieBC, Ghostalker, Sk, Gear Girl, Hope Faraday, Foul Flame, and Kabuto. Global names anyway I forget all the character names...
Despite having no corpse of Ruladak's to teabag we are there in spirit..
Thus ends the tale of Team Awesomesauce. Sometime later Team Failatlife finally finishes.

Gear was poking me to come back so I had a look. They're giving Fury to blasters or something similar? The more damage you do, the more damage you do. So in other words my Mr Fusion will have a power he will actually use 95% of the time? Neat.
Also just having the option of more respecs is dragging me back into the game with its siren call. I like to mix up my builds frequently, try out new things etc. I may resub for a while when Issue 11 hits.

I thought that was only for the exemplar not the ah---whatever it is.
Well yes the examplaree or whatever the fuck it is called gets xp as per normal but the examplar doesn't.
The way it works is...
Examplaree(Normal Xp, Money, Debt Clearing ect)
Examplar same level as Examplaree(No Xp, More Money, More? Debt Clearing)
Mentor(Normal Xp, Money, Debt Clearing ect)
Sidekick one level lower then Mentor(Is -1 so slightly higher xp percentage, Normal Money, Normal Debt Clearing)

I can hover now. So close to flying.
So, if anyone wants a sidekick sometime tomorrow after 4PM EST, I would greatly appreciate it. 8 levels till I can learn fly.

Not quite. it's a 12.5% damage boost across the board, none of this scaling shit, and even while mezzed you can use your first two primary set powers and your first secondary set power.
They're now kinda built to directly counter Doms.

Each time you attack, you get a stacking damage buff with a fixed duration. The value of that buff is determined by the attack fired, and single target attacks will provide a larger effect than AoE attacks (they'll be calculated using the inverse of the number of targets calc used for damage/end costs.) Duration and actual numeric values aren't final yet.
That's on top of the 12.5% Range Damage increase and the cast through status effect for tier 1 and 2 powers.

Huh... So there's a fury kind of thing on top of that? I didn't see that in closed beta note (though I only fired that up like once when I first got in)
From experience helpin a friend, it's generally faster for them to SK up than for you to exemp down. Kill rate is higher, and generally everything will be better.
The only downside to SKing is that they might end up missing some story arcs.

Which will be a moot point after Issue 11! Finally!

> turn on light Good start to the day. Pity it's going to be the worst one of your life. The light is now on.
So the new issue is out now?
I may have to redownload a trial on this computer, since mine is out of order for the time being.
EDIT: Whoops.jpg, nevermind. This is what I get for not checking ParagonWiki or this thread more than once every few weeks.
Still going to download the trial and dick around in training room.

They're giving my Blaster a 12.5% ranged damage boost across the board.
I mostly started and ended my fights at 100-70% health, so defiance never touched me unless shit hit the fan. And it usually hit the fan because I wasn't doing enough damage by like a smidgen so they got in something nasty. They're giving me the smidgen for free.
I'm really looking forward to this change and trying it out. I can't see a downside anywhere.

I love how the blasters on the official forums are whining. It turns a fair amount of them wanted straight-up Mag 3 mez protection as an AT inherent. How fucking retarded can you be? Really, the devs are going to just go out and give you single-stack protection? Of course, these are the same people that want slow and energy drain protection in every set so I shouldn't be too surprised.
I guess if I whine long enough about Gauntlet maybe they'll give tanks a version of Fury that pumps defense and feeds my cats and cooks me steaks. I should start whining about an AT I play all the time anyways right now!

It's for setting up PvP matches, which almost no one ever does outside of the Friday Night Fights. Gladiator fights (pokemon) are the only entertaining part of it.

I've always thought everyone should get base Mag 3 mez protection. The gulf between melee and non-melee mez protection has always seemed pretty stupid to me, especially since most mezzes are ranged anyways.
More people are complaining about potentially longer animations for Ice Blast and Fire Blast (the powers, not the powersets) I think.
Stupid question time, are you guys till playing on virtue? My fiancee and myself just picked this up to give it a go. We are playing villain side, my chars named is Richard Friendly, and hers is Catel. Really enjoying it so far nice break from what I have previously played.
Preacher on
I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.
What I'm more impressed with is how he took it pretty well and didn't get all "Guys I'm sorry I can't play a game that has this big of an asshole playing". Even for duck that seemed a little over the top though.

Yes that sort of sucks, but at the same time maybe the normalization will get more people into other sets. Elec will still suck no matter what, but there's more to the AT than Ice and Fire.
Can someone hook me up with the link to the free trial?
I don't think the thread that I got it from originally is still around.
EDIT: The promotion isn't offered anymore. Is there any other way for me to redownload the client on a new computer, without using a buddy pass from one of you homps? If not, would you mind sending me a buddy pass?

I got up close and personal for most of the fight, the results:
Shivan Buddy didn't show up till the very end, what a sack of scum.
My rock delivery system:
Examplaring gets you no xp(only money) so sidekicking.
Also just having the option of more respecs is dragging me back into the game with its siren call. I like to mix up my builds frequently, try out new things etc. I may resub for a while when Issue 11 hits.

Good start to the day. Pity it's going to be the worst one of your life. The light is now on.
Only to discover I have done almost every story arc available to the character.
I had no idea I had done so much with him.
Then again, he was my first CoV character that I made when it came out.
He's still only level 32

I'm glad that you're glad, so, everybody's happy.
pleasepaypreacher.net
couple that with the incoming boost to Blasters (leading to an eventual change to Defiance) and a brand new laser-sighted compound bow
and Exact's having a good month.
I bet he plays Stalkers, too.
Running whatever we can get..AVs..big outdoors..whatever. Just for fun.

Also duck..you're a fucking 4$$h013 :P.

Of course, the punishment is death.
