Remember, even if you aren't playing a lot its' worthwhile to log on just long enough to get a boost from Witchcraft. :D

I could actually get a new FF slot right now, and, my usage resets tomorrow and I didn't go anywhere near my limit this month, and, I have the weekend mostly free.

I also just got an Eruption, Supernatural & Nimbus..

All the planets seem to be in alignment..

Thing is, I didn't pick out what I want yet except that he's for sure going to be dps. Probably Fire.. Fire isn't a very popular choice for some reason. Maybe it's the short range attacks. I want an Infernal Supernatural dps guy but I can alter Idak's build so that he can retcon decently cheap when I want to play him as dps.. I kinda want a munitions guy too. Dex/ego/con would be nice. That sounds like munitions. Or Infernal. But I want Fire. I think.

And then there's a name to pick out... A costume... Nah... I'll never make it.

Close!

I got Blue Battleape to 40 which is pretty much the only real goal I had this weekend so anything else I do is gravy. ;D

Probably started out of some insecurity or something, who knows.  I get a bad feeling that they are doing it for a reason, and not a good one.

Edit: Especially with the test server notes, they are buffing of all things, the ultra temporary consumables you purchase with money.  I think they are desperate.
Currently; Not doing any streaming, found myself with less time available recently.  Still playing starbound periodically, though I am thinking of trying other games.  Don't tell me to play mmohtg's though please :).  Getting back into participating in VO and the successors again to.

Witchcraft will vanish in the morning. Grab the buff while you can.

Like full energy recharge for the whole team.  Yeah, that temporary.

Here they are, I am face palming at this to be honest, it's, honestly kind of pathetic :(.

Edit: Only thing on there to even consider was the costume pieces but even then, only 3 pieces :/, I wasn't even that impressed when I tried em either but that is opinion.  Just the other changes, i am left face palming.

Stuff that I never use is going to be aoe and stack in inventory instead of be multi-charge is how I read it. Oh, and there's costume pieces.

Pretty much, as I said, other then the costume pieces I felt it was kinda weak.

I felt it was kinda weak.

They usually are. Bug fixes, stuff like that. NERFS. Some new powers. New lockboxes.. Interface tweaks. A trickle of new content. New ways to ruin the value of Q...

In this patch they improved how some consumables stack and made them more interesting by making them into an aura. Oh, and they added some costume pieces. Sounds about average to me.

Seriously tho, what? Every patch can't be a major update. Even when CoH was in full swing there at the end not every patch was game changing.

We didn't get nerfed. I'm all good.

Well what can I say?  There are reasons I almost never play anymore :).

I guess I don't know what everyone was expecting/missed the point.
