Issue 11: To Go LIVE!

Issue 11: A Stitch in Time has been announced to go the Live Servers on Wednesday, November 28th. In addition to the standard patch; a free Costume Change Token and Free Respec will be given out per Character.

Check the Announcement by Alex Lighthouse Minden, NCsoft NorCal Community Relations Manager, HERE!

In addition, remember that the SuperGroup Member cap will be raised to 150 characters, and 42 month Veteran's Rewards will go live at this time. And on December 10th, each member of a SuperGroup will garner 20k Bonus Prestige for their SG. So, let's get crackin' building up those SG/VG's.

RE: Issue 11: To Go LIVE!

I knew they would release it before Dec. 10. After all, people need to build up thier SGs and VGs before the prestige bonus is given out. This means that I've got to get my new scrapper and brute into my groups before I'm flooded with SG invites.

OH SCHITNEL!!! I need to get a new time card before the end of the month or I'm not going to be online Dec 10. !

Actually, in a separate (but related) post, Lighthouse said the freespec will be given out on December 7th, not when i11 goes live.

RE: Issue 11: To Go LIVE!

Like I said Red-side; yeah, Big, sorry for the lack of clarity there. But that's why I posted the link. Tis the Season for me and Santa to work waaay too much, and I wasn't able to make my rounds til just before shutting down for a short winter's nap. When I saw the announcement on the OB's, I posted this real quick and hit the rack.

Besides, did you really expect me to give the HEE-ROWS 'completely' accurate info? I mean, c'mon, how am I going to sow confusion and dismay that way?. MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!

I do have a rep to keep up.

No problem whatsoever, Mr Sappypants. I just didn't want the villainous gang you have here to think you were a few slices short of a loaf.

I think it's a good idea if we keep this dialogue up on both sides of the coin. Somewhat entertaining

RE: Issue 11: To Go LIVE!

ok, so freespecs are later than i11 hitting live servers? if so, good, because i foresee a lot of mistakes on my part as far as DB/WP power choices and slotting. *sigh* but, weapon customization tomorrow! my new scrapper is supposed to have the flat blades out of each wrist (bright pink, a la old-school Psylocke), not the stupid clunky standard claws. also, im looking forward to using the new hairstyles. guys' hairstyles right now are seriously lacking.

Woah.

Old school Psylocke? Old school Psylocke is the butterfly psychic "eyes" thing...none of that blade stuff! Old school Psylocke is running from Sabertooth through the mansion and throwing some weights at him to get away!

Bah! Pink blades...damned Mandarin.

I haven't read anything, but hopefully it's not something stupid like boxing gear.

42 Month Veteran Reward is a Team Recall power to match the one you get from the SafeGuard/Mayhem Missions. Recharges in a half hour I believe. This is not 'Team Teleport'; it's the good power. Heh!

RE: Issue 11: To Go LIVE!

my mids hero builder already updated for the new issue's powersets, and i'm messing with ideas of a new scrapper using the new sets. When i looked at the options for dual blades I get a bit confused however, as to which powers fire off for what combo. I really hope someone makes a guide for that. It might turn off a few ppl who want a more simplistic build, unless things can explained a bit better. I love how the willpower set looks by the way, I think this may replace invul pretty quick.

RE: Issue 11: To Go LIVE!

I don't think Willpower is going to replace Invuln. There's just not enough protection there...and no Self-Heal. That's a big minus for the set. Don't get me wrong, it's very cool, but it's a little more specific than Invuln is. Invuln covers most damage types pretty equally, not counting Psi damage. Willpower knocks the heck out of Psi damage, but has openings with the elemental and energy damage types.

I intend on making a Willpower tanker as soon as it goes live. I'm itching to REALLY try it out. It seems like a killer set for herding. Will/Fire will probably be a really nice combination. It's not a great "stay alive" set, but I think it'll be a great "kill em quick and move to the next group" set. We'll see.
