The Feats UI has changed recently to make it more organized. This is good, however, it is missing the "Iconics styles". It only shows the classic game styles. Classic styles seem to be only the ones from normal leveling from 0-30 level. The Iconics styles show all of the others (including from Time capsules, DLCs, Doctor Fate, etc.) This list no longer seems to be available or I cant find it. I used to be able to look up a style and see what pieces I was missing. Now I cant easily do this. Since unbound gear does not tell you the style, I dont want to open it up because it will lock to my toon and I cant trade it if I already have the style. The Iconics style list gave me an easy way to see which pieces I need to open and claim the missing style. Does anyone know where the Iconic styles are listed or did DCUO remove this to reduce memory usage?
They're listed under the specific content they were released with, e.g. Time Capsule gear is under the specific time capsules they were in, iconic pieces are under the specific episode they were released in.
Yeah, to me this wasn't the greatest change. As a PITA as it was looking up styles in 3 locations (styles, theme, iconic) it seems like more legwork now unless you know were a style dropped originally....most people don't. A better change might have been to leave them in the old location but to remove the dopey feat name and just have the style listed. Finding them in 1 location WITH the actual name of the style as the listing....alphabetically even...would have been much easier, and seeing as most content drops all the same pool of styles, does it really matter that a style came from one episode or another? I suppose for Elite sets maybe....but fine...you could have added 'drops in XYZ' content to the style feat info. Still one of the more 'meh' improvements.
Content doesn't drop Vendor Styles from old Episodes / Tiers. You won't see Reverse or Mera or Shock Jock dropping as Loot, for example, and those are the Styles most often associated with Feats for that Episode. So yes, it does matter which Episode they came from, since you have the option of buying those from the Episode Vendor, or shelling out ridicuMarks to buy just the Style (or wait until it's a Fate Rewards Style, like Fallen God, Son of Belial etc.) The ones you had to grind for do drop as Loot - e.g. Corrupted and Exalted, but the ones you have to make at an R&D Station don't - so the Episode they come from also matters.
Ok. In that instance it could help, although many of older tier suits are also available in the HOL under the iconic style vendors. My point was more for if you get a chooser with Nuclear boots and Herald of the Black head you need both of....who cares which episode it came from when you are looking to see what the better choice is (i.e. the one that will complete a feat or scores more points). And I don't think the 'grind' ones come in boxes anymore. Pride/corrupted/exalted in particular. The only ones that really would matter are the HOF ones as those are not in the loot table and HOF runs aren't in Omni so you won't stumble on them.
I just want to point out that there were a few iconic style feats that were listed with their episode instead of the iconic style tab. It was very inconsistent and I prefer the way it is now.
