spent all day on test. I gotta tell you this is some exciting shtuff.

Blade doesnt need hand 2 hand and the sooner as the devs make staff melee effected by staff the better.

the new mission rewards are not horrible, in fact, even though they are green they typically have more useful stats on them. I been getting mission reward 45 greens that were better than 50 greys.

Hybrids. Embrace them. If you want a toon that is even across the board, keep your human. I have a Forean with all mind that kills everything with vortex shrapnel and scourge, I mean everything. My Bran has 350 ish spirit and crits every 4th attack. It is sick. I havent figured out the percentage but faster weapons DO benefit from this. Finally, my newest toy with 40k life and 90k armor (just cus I got level 45 graviton in 2 slots and grey in another, test is barren atm) Is my thrax who just doesnt die. they all trade off something. the forean is my glass cannon, the bran I think is the funnest to play, and the thrax will be a great tanker, if I dont decide to make the forean the tank cus of his shear dps. anyways more news from the front later.

My attitude is definately changing after exploring hybrids.

Scourge kills everything. I was playing around with it for a bit tonight on a clone that I made just for testing abilities I hadn't use (I mostly wanted to check our scatter bombs) and was pretty impressed by it.

Speaking of which I may just drop tectonic strike for rushing blow....

Cool news about the hybrids. Coming from an SWG background we had something like nine playable races so it'll just be nice to see people who look a little different (even if we all wear a helmet 90% of the time).

yeah, scourge is apparantly the same atm whether you have 0 points in mind or 300. good thing to know if you are going thrax.

Hey, a dude posted pics of the level 46 grenades on PTS and the tooltip damage numbers are the same as on live. Are just the tooltips messed or do the grenades not do any additional damage when used either?

I'm a little bummed as other than the ammo changes for my machine guns I was most looking forward to beefed up grenades.

[Deckerporter]

i remember reading that they were increasing the damage to grenades, they probaly forgot to update the tooltip. that quite often happens

I will buy some but the only thing I noticed different was emp bombs at mk 10 are 10k cred now.

ouch. why would they up the prices on the bombs? if thats the case i'd actually invest in them, hell everyone should.

[Alita]

I bought 5k of them a bit ago, I still have 4800
