Of course, if it&#8217;s like Defiance, it won&#8217;t do anything nearly soon enough (and I&#8217;d rather have a Recharge Redux than an EndRedux), but it beats a poke in the eye with a sharp stick.  Or, at least, heals it more cheaply.<\/p>\n<p class=\"block\"># Added Damage Resistance Inspirations (Reduces the damage you take from an attack). Drop rate for non-defensive Inspirations has not changed. 50% of defensive Inspirations that drop will be the old Defense (avoid getting hit) Inspirations, and 50% will be the new Damage Resistance Inspirations.<br \/>\nOn one level, very cool.  Very, very cool.  On the other hand, gah, another Insp type to make room for.  I&#8217;d really liked the consolidation of the mez ones.<\/p>\n<p class=\"block\"># Made several changes to the Force Field powersets for Defenders and Controllers:<br \/>\nDeflection Field now has Defense to Melee attacks, in addition to its old effects.<br \/>\nInsulation Field now has Defense to Ranged attacks, in addition to its old effects<br \/>\nDispersion Bubble now has Defense to Area of Effect attacks, in addition to its old effects<br \/>\nSignificantly Reduced the Endurance cost of Force Bubble. Also, added a small chance to knock down foes.<br \/>\nHuzzah for more bubbly goodness!<\/p>\n<p class=\"block\">Reduced duration of XP Debt protection in Resurrect Powers.<br \/>\nBooo!  Didn&#8217;t they just give this power?  Obviously they saw folks writing about perma-Revive &#8230;<\/p>\n<p class=\"block\">Reduced recharge time of Rest.<br \/>\nYay!  All level 12 and below characters thank you!  (Heck, a few higher ones that solo or don&#8217;t have healers along thank you, too.)<\/p>\n<p class=\"block\">Decreased Recharge time of Police Bot attack.<br \/>\nRats.  That&#8217;s the best part of the Hollows, gunning down invading troll gangs before the police bots disintegrate them.<\/p>\n<p class=\"block\">    * Fixed bugs with escort NPCs:<br \/>\nFixed bug in some missions where if a hostage is killed, the mission does not end.<br \/>\nFixed bug that could cause escort NPCs to become hostile and attack players.<br \/>\nFixed bug that caused escort NPCs to despawn 10 minutes after being freed.<br \/>\n* Removed invisible turrets that appeared in some missions.<br \/>\nYikes.  Yeah, those all sound like things worth fixing.<br \/>\nMore stuff listed, too.<br \/>\nBtw, thanks much for attentive support folks.  I \/bugged not getting a badge and credit I ought to have last night, and it appeared in about 5 minutes.  Nice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New stuff up on Test.
