davebo posted:I'm kind of concerned about this too. I know I can only bring my well geared heroes to raids because nothing is less fun than losing after all that time, but when people are like X up for whatever cosmic I'm comfortable jumping in for one boss fight on anyone. What I don't want is for people to be so monumentally geared that Gaz has to keep upping boss HP, so that the amount of HP it adds by having me present in a party is more than the fair share of damage I'll be able to do. If that happens, and X'ing up just makes boss fights longer than if people solo'd it, the incentive to help out your friends by grouping up drops away. Also if you're midtowning at lvl 60 it's pretty easy to destroy some bosses before people across the map with no teleport power can even get to you. The answer is more tiered content. Green/red/cosmic/chaos/galactic/stan lee levels. D3 finally got this right with tiered difficulties. poo poo got too easy? Heyo here's tier 7 with higher % for challenge bonuses and 100% multiplicative rif/sif. I think cosmic terms are going to be a tuning nightmare especially after 69 recipes are released. You're looking at your upper % of players getting at least +4 across the board and having a whole different meta for itemization with the options that open up from your +6 tree/+1 skills changing to +7 tree/+2 skills. If they can't tune characters to have smaller degrees of variance, then they need to add content that won't be a lost cause for tuning because there's just way too much noise. Also I'm really disliking throwing my corpse at red term bosses when leveling up crappier characters.

I think if you put a Legendary on a character before level 30, they should have the first tier unlocked around level 50 or so. Might be helpful for finishing the sprint to 60 if you get one of the ones with a lot of damage or spirit in that first tier. That was one reason I went with Savage Axe on Deadpool.

You unlock the 1st tier way before 50. Around 30 is when I unlock it if I put it on the hero from level 1.

I look at it this way, Legendaries can always go back to Odin Marks at a relatively low cost. Turning OM to blessings is a more permanent decision, but it's easy to cash in a legendary.

I'll share it anyways though. Why run earth and strafe?

Incendiary Cluster Bomb seems lacking to me in comparison, if I were going to drop any power from my SL build right this instant, it'd probably be that. I haven't actually done any hard tests though because I usually just let other nerds do it for me.

I have 5000 marks at the moment and I need to figure out something to do with them that doesn't involve interacting with pubbies. If a goon opened a business interacting with pubbies to do trades I'd be the biggest customer.

You stirred up poo poo and were unapologetic about it. Do you remember getting probated for it? I realize that looking at your own post history is an arduous task but try it, its pretty illuminating. Also, to clarify this point as well, the super group does not put up with any type of misogynist or homophobic content, whether it be serious or a sad attempt at humor. We are all carebear crabby babbys with no sense of humor. Each and every one of us.

Prel posted:I think new Mask of Algrim is probably BiS for melee Iron Man, it looks pretty strong for hybrid TM too. Even if it is slightly behind Brutal Shades for dps it's packed with other good stuff now, and it may not be behind at all depending on rolls and your other stats. Really perfect cosmics might still be better, but good luck with that. I'm looking to get one for IM, Strange, and BP (well, I have one mask, still need 2 more). It looks to be BiS for pretty much anyone who doesn't have a +6 to primary tree slot 5, or 1 ability they really want to max (which is why I'm not using it on MK or SS, cosmic is likely better for them). The boots look really good too. Maybe better that Footstigons for melee, and I think should directly replace shield recon/tabi for everyone using those.

They're both worth using for sure anytime there is more than one thing they can hit. Now that I have my EtC pumped up really high I probably should time the animations for Strafe & Earth to make sure they are still worth using vs. a true single target (I think they are, but it's worth making sure). Same for ICB I guess, although you're going to want to use at least one Starship power to apply vulnerability. Strafe can be reset with Uplink, so I would be more likely to drop Earth if I was only going to use one. My Strafe is also slightly higher rank than Earth because of his uniques.

Same for ICB I guess, although you're going to want to use at least one Starship power to apply vulnerability. That makes sense, although I've heard from others due to the kinda clunky animation Strafe vs. single target isn't worth it vs. just firing more bullets. ICB keeping up the dot and vuln makes it worthwhile I think (also the refresh for double dots!). I've not totally tricked him out though so things could change depending on gear and ranks, of course. He's on my short list of people who I'm thinking of working on next so I've been looking into his gear and rotations. I'm wondering if CQC will be worth it for red raids due to the need to get in close and it's kinda wonky behavior (I thought they fixed the CD reset bug?).

Harlock posted:Just keep doing legendary quests. Splinters pretty much have a set timer. Unless you use boosts, probably looking at 1 per 8-10 minutes. They have odin mark boosts too, but I've never used them. I've got something like 300 hours in the game and about 1800 Odin Marks that I haven't spent yet. Even if you keep doing only this, you should buy an M'Kraan and swap it to every new hero you play. The extra 200 spirit will come in very handy. Odin marks used to be much harder to get, but now LQs give more than one, and you can be completing LQs and SQs at the same time. I just reroll all story LQs that aren't associated with a permanent bonus to make sure I cycle through the SQs quickly too.
