I like this one the best.

I would like the last one also if it used the original color scheme, dark gray shoulders/arms and red 'leotard', I just don't like the white/light gray.

All of the alpha abilities also have a recipe for non-alpha-components. Scroll down in the creation window.

(I removed a bunch of unnecessary color formatting.)

The event channel is a system channel, not a chat channel; they can't talk in it, so no, it wouldn't work.

And *I* will say it again. Your initial statement: WAS NOT presented as an opinion, nor did it say anything about Scrappers or your dislike of a few of the powersets. Try to be more careful next time if you mean one thing but say something completely different.

Concept or not, those four listed are still viable choices with Shield Defense and just because you don't like them, doesn't mean you can discount them out of hand as viable choices *at all*. There are also two other archetypes that use Shield Defense, and Tanks/Brutes have four more powersets that are usable with Shield Defense, for a total of 13 powersets you can use with Shield Defense, and 6 you can't (one of which is not available yet, Staff, so really 5).

Your initial statement read like you were stating a game fact, when you were in fact stating a highly restricted opinion based on one archetype and what powersets you like.

Can't use: Claws, Spines, Dual Blades, Katana, Titan Weapons [and Staff Fighting]
Can use: Battle Axe, Broad Sword, Dark Melee, Electrical Melee, Energy Melee, Fiery Melee, Ice Melee, Kinetic Melee, Martial Arts, Stone Melee, Street Justice, Super Strength, War Mace

Did a little fixing.

And that's not counting proliferations, of which there have been bajillions.

Interfaces have a stacking cap, and it applies no matter who cast it. It's either four or five stacks, depending on the power. So...

This is why I plan on multiple Interfaces on all my characters, once they release the solo path (I am not a fan of most of the iTrials). If everyone has Reactive, slot something else.

I would like to point out that before Energize, I spent several years playing - and playing with - electric armor characters that never used any hit-and-run tactic.

My fiance hasn't even respec'd his Elec Armor Brute into Energize yet (she didn't have Conserve Power prior to the change) because she doesn't need it. She can stand toe to toe with pretty close to anything outside of an incarnate trial and not even bat an eyelash.

Yep. Willfully, even.

LMAO. That is all.

Nope, it showed up alongside the launch of Freedom. The other games with micro transactions had/have their transactions in the standard purchase history (similar to CoH's stuff before Freedom) or on their own dedicated website.

I haven't bought anything from another game since Freedom launched, so I don't know if they now utilize that as well, but it did indeed show up with Freedom. I imagine Lineage II's F2P microtransactions show up there.

Since Freedom launched. *wince*
