The more likely outcome when someone makes the connection that they don't actually have to defend is that they will log out, or at least go afk in their manse so nobody can bother them. It's very easy to just tell people that they don't actually hav…
If the desire is to get the playerbase to be detached enough for the issues to be overlooked then it would have died out completely already because there wouldn't have had been any second, third, or nth chances.

Hey, I am just saying that I don't think ascension challenges are as sure things as they are being made out to be, even if the formats stayed the same.
Can we please announce the rules for Harmony sooner rather than later? I disagree that surprises are good in competitive events and this thread is just one of the many examples of why that is the case. You can have twists to the tried and true and s…
Not really blaming anyone for the coding related issues, as I said already, but I do recall that the hamster has teleported randomly into non-accessible rooms in the past couple of years so I think if it was made clear to us that it would just use t…
I will also throw in that the best way, in my view, to handle it that would have been fair for everyone is for a re-do with the hamster starting in Tarken's hands in a random room with the amount of time remaining when he first got teleported to th…
Actually, from what I've been hearing discussing this with quite a few people, the "people who didn't win" mostly just accepted that there wasn't going to be a do over as soon as Avechna announced the winner. Keep in mind that the "people who didn't…

Veil: Firstly, veil does have a counter in seek and that is why we knew he was in two non-accessible rooms. Secondly, even ignoring that, if you actually make decisions as major as this based on a single skill, don't you think it's ti…
Raves to the Halli admins for the wonderful Solstice ornament. Also glad that our non-Halli friends can also get a taste of what makes Hallifax so special and amazing.
Oh yeah, I think the point about asynchronous balances is very valid, but on top of this they are three very long asynchronous balances. The longest one by default is super, at 6 seconds, though in theory id can be longer if your ego is very low. Th…
Well maybe you should read the part where I said there is going to be a SR that will very likely cover TK. With how many problems that you have pointed out there is no way to really "fix" the skillset one report at a time. In the mean time just try …
I haven't seen how SSC cures clots, but before SSC the burst/clot/choke (or throatlock) combo was still very effective, especially in a geo meld which has a stun and a couple of dust affs to slow down clot curing. You are right in that most of the s…
As-is, making them tic more at higher levels of timewarp could just move the binary nature of timewarp from none-massive to none-some lower threshold. Also, I don't really think we should be gating the entire aff's effect behind 3p skills that only …
I disagree with the balancing act mechanic as a game design element in general. The assumption is usually that because you have more options each of those options would be individually weaker than what you would get without those options. However, t…
Aeonics is actually not terrible for Sentinels, at least relative to Institute, because the main offensive output of warriors comes from Knighthood so there is less reliance on the secondary and tertiary. In fact, as far as warrior secondaries go, A…
Aeonics suffers from the whole defensive vs offensive thing. There are too many defensive skills, many of which are temporary effects with that require active upkeep. They are also all RNG based with small percentage chances to fire. This bloats the…
Guardian/Wiccan Design ---------- When looking at what guardians and wiccans offer in combat, it is usually a combination of a high affliction rate, strong hindering, group separation utility, and/or an easy to support instak…
