Can you help me understand Transformation card?

If I deal 100 damage and have my current critical attack chance (26%) and critical arrack magnitude (106%), than after doing 100 hits, my avarge damage should be 74*100+26*206 =12756 right?

Transformation Card changes my critical attack chance to 46%, critical attack damage to 136%, but it also decreases my normal attack by 21% on level one, so I would deal 79 damage on each hit.

So after doing 100 hits again, do I deal 54*79+46*186,44 = 12842 or 54*79+46*236 = 15122?
Like, is my critical damage calculated from the decreased base attack value (79) or from the previous base attack (100), because crits stay the same? It's a difference between doing 186 or 236 damage on crit in this case.

It would also mean that on max level of this artifact I would deal either 54*85+46*206,6 = 14094 or 54*85+46*236 = 15446. So in one case the artifact only becomes really worth it after upgrading it a lot and in the other case artifact becomes almost as good on level 80 as it is on level 200.

Maybe it's calculated in some completly different way, but right now I don't feel like this artifact is THAT good.

Just to clarify, will we still be able to upgrade allies for half the price tomorrow, or is today the last chance to do so?

it says aug 11 - aug 18, but sometimes in games it means the event ends right when 18th hits, so I wanted to ask to be sure XD

I'm kinda hoping that maybe they will add a new Ally tomorrow, due to the release of Lanterns show, so I'm hesitant to spend ally favour and source marks. Do you think it's possible they will add Hal Jordan, Sinestro or some alternative John Steward ally tomorrow?

Are pets worth it?

I'm playing as dps superpowers character. For trinkets I have might boost, henchmen, orbital strike and supply drop. The thing is, supplay drop barely deals any healing, so I would rather change it to something usefull.

I was thinking about pets and since I'm a Green Lantern, the only one fitting is Dark Construct Bat. He doesn't quite have the correct shade of green, but he's a construct, so whatever.

Are pets good compared to allies and henchmen? Is it worth to farm for tier 2 or 3 pet, or is the difference between them and tier 1 too little to jutify? How do they scale and do I need to commit to them by sacreficing my own stats?

Which lanterns can be created with existing power sets?

Green, Yellow and Red are kinda obvious, because they have dedicated power set in the game.

I guess Orange could be either Fire or Atomic, not sure which would fit better.

Blue could probably be either Quantum or Water.

Mental powers are purple, but their colour shade looks different than Violet, Indigo and Uktraviolet lanterns, so I'm not sure if it would pass.

Are there any other ways to create a lantern character using in game powers?

Is this progress shared between all my characters, even the ones I'm yet to create?

Why is GoT season 8 hated while HotD seasons 2 and 3 are so well received by the general audience?

S03 E02 is the highest rated episode so far and a lot of people seem to believe those 2 first episodes of season 3 are the best episodes of the show, which is kinda wierd in my oppinion because they are blatantly less logical than Season 8 of GoT, which was insanelly hated.

There was a lot of stupid things in season 8 and the hate was justified, but it's weird to see how Euron randomly one shoting Rhaegal was hated so much, but Lohar hitting Vermax with first shot is not really raising any eyebrows.

Take a step back and thing about what we've seen so far in season 3:

-Rhaenyra being closed in her room, crying and making cringe quotes. (Imagine if Jon was closed in the toilet by Arya, no one listened to him, he started destroying his clothes, crying and then he says that he may have a weak body, but he also has spitit of the king....what?)

- Rhaenyra completly trusting Alicent on betraying her family and walking to Kings Landing

- Aemond just solo taking Harrenhal, as if taking a castle is some "take a flag" minigame

- Alicent going from person to person, talking about surrendering the castle and it actually works

- Daemon and Rhaenyra taking Kings Landing without any army. Just two of them walking to the castle, killing someone from time to time without any resistance. Plus another "capture the flag", she just said that she takez the place and suddenly everyone is gonna listen to her? And there was not a single archer in both Kings Landing and Harrenhal.

I'm not gonna go down on season 2, because I belive it was talked enough for those last 2 years, but I will just state that both season 2 and season 3 so far, are way dumber and worse in pretty much every aspect than GoT seasons 8 and 7 were, yet they are being praised, not hated.

Why is that a thing?

Question for people who didn't play the game for a few months, because they wait for FoA. Are you gonna play as Berserker when DLC comes out, or do you first wanna pick something you know?

At first I was sure I'm gonna try Berserker from the get go, while starting fresh with the new expansion, but now I'm thinking about making one of my favourite characters, like vitality bloody pox conjurer or elemental mage hunter or whatever I feel like doing.

What about you? Are you gonna take the Berserker to try him out, or do you first wanna see all the new features and areas while playing as something you know (plus hoping for MI's or sets that will change your build)

What are some recommended artifatcs for Damage Superpowers Hard Light hero?

I'm pretty certain of using Sinestro's Corrupted Ring and Razer's Power Battery, but there are still 3 slots to go.

Btw, upgrading artifacts is madness.. it takes so much time compared to augments and allies, despite the fact you need 5, rather than 4 augments and 3 allies. I don't know how some people can have up to 7 characters and upgrade them all up to date

Is there really a Black Manta bounty in Argo? I didn't see anyone talk about it in the chat, nor did I manage to find him or anyone who gives this mission

Is there any way to get the Blue Lantern ring?

I know there were opportunities to get white and blue lantern rings, that give 5 powers each. I was wondering if there is still any option on getting it, or if you think it will be possible in the future?

I'm playing as Green Lantern and having both rings would be cool, from lore perspective, since Green unlocks offensive capabilities of Blue ring, while Hope lantern boosts the power of Will and charges it constantly.

Just defeated Neron (and Solomon Grundy earlier this day) all alone

Idk if it's normal to defeat raid bosses from one of the later expansions, but geez, that was hard and it took some time. Shame I only got 20 feats in total for that, but ok

There should be a 4th mentor dedicated to Lanterns or Space/Alien tech

Lantern characters don't really fit neither meta, magic nor tech mentor. There is a lot of content revolving around lanterns - powers, missions, chapters, episodes, events, even white and blue lantern rings that give you new powers to loadout.

I with you could also pick Hal Jordan and Sinestro as mentor, while making a new lantern character.

Batman and Joker only really have gadgets and munitions dedicated piwer sets, so the same number lantern powers we have currently, not counting white and blue ring (light and rage).

Alternatively it could be a mentor dedicated to all Space Technologies, which could cover Blue Scarab (with they added a Scarab power set)

Do you think there is any chance they would add it, or are we forever stuck with 3 mentors?

I returned to the game after 3 years and I don't know which of my items should be sold/deleted and which ones should be kept

I made a new character and gave it items from the old one. Nth metal is always usefull I think, because you can upgrade artifacts with it. I can also use all 6 scanners to find investigations and exo matherial after finishing the main campaign.

No idea if the rest is worth anything or if it's just taking up space

Will there be another double artefact xp week?

I did a quick google search and it seems like the last one was more than one year ago, so Idk if it makes sense to save Nth metal or just upgrade my artifacts
