Update 2: Marks of Power

When did they say that they knew there would be a new mark all along?

Really? As a business I do not think that this is something they would decide a few days ago.

Well in the first Update: marks of power thread Mepps did say this came up after the preview live stream for HoP I, so they really did at most only come up with this Idea a few weeks ago.


Overall I do like that they added a couple more ways to get marks of power for players that don't love raiding, or players that want a way to jump on for a couple minutes and still get some marks of power, but I still do not love the idea of new marks. People are still going to gear up to fast by using replay badges, and the best gear is still loot from a raid, so no matter what in the end the Mark gear doesn't matter because its still not the best gear available, so in my mind, this whole mark argument is useless. That is unless these loot tables are worse than the ones in the origin crisis raids when they first released.

1 request..

If you're adding more tiers of marks, can you reduce the amount of marks needed throughout the lower tier gear vendors. Leveling up an alt just got that much longer now.

They didn't know all along. It was mentioned by a Green Name that this was a last minute change after a long stretch of internal discussion. It wasn't something they were initially planning on; maybe eventually, but obviously not this soon. It's also been mentioned that DLC 12 and beyond will be handled differently as far as Marks go, yet what that is hasn't been revealed yet.

It sounds more like gear still costs Triumph, and the unique Marks you get can/must be converted to Triumph using the Mark Converter. Essentially, progression from T0-T5 remains the same. It's only really T6 that's being affected the most.

Just wondering. Why don't people like them? You get to play the new Legends characters in the content and can even see if you want to buy them. I really hope they don't stop doing the iconic solo missions, I love them.

i like them personally. but they do get stale after a short time period

I understand that.. But since the release of tier 6 content none of the marks in the lower tier vendors has been reduced like they did previously...when t5 came out the devs slashed the cost of t1-t3 vendor costs..now that t6 is around I'd like to see the cost of t4 to get a cut (t4 also being the hardest to grind seeing as there are no t4 solos or duos)

There are t4 solos in the open world Arkham, Ace, Steelworks, Strykers but yeah t4 price should be cut.

Um I thought we were inky getting a choice of either or.... Not getting both no matter what .... Please clarify the initial post says gettin to choose which not gettin both no matter what

man idc if they postpone the dlc this change is dumb all together, but devs can't see it all. their greed as gone way too far this time

Better than nothing. I really dislike the DLC 10 Anomalies but I do like the outside solo content because it's quick and simple to do every day.

are u mad cuz other people get better gear faster than you and then say they're bored? you shouldn't care and neither should these devs since they're the ones who made replay badges in the first place

Oh ok good I didn't see the and thank you .... Still this was a nice gesture to ease some of this tension ....

are you blind? can't u see how wrong this is? they're forcing you to run the same content in a dlc over and over again until you get sick of it. for example if i don't want to do the 2 new alerts anymore cuz they got boring to run over and over so i can go back to td after that i get bored with it again i go after the new ones but i still get marks towards the vender gear. do you get it now??

Fair enough.

But then why not remove the MOF cap with a hotfix?

It was the first post of the thread!?
