Quote:Well, you could have posted this in the Player Questions section, as it's a Question directed at the Players.: http://boards.cityofheroes.com/forumdisplay.php?f=579Wasn't sure where to post this question so I guess I'll try here, I was wondering if we are going to need hero merits to craft the things that go into the alpha slots? I want to change my alignment to vigilante but first need to know if I need hero merits for I19, also if I switch my alignment will I still be able to get the incarnate arc missions from Ouroboros?
But, no one there could answer if they knew.
You can always PM a Dev or a Moderator and see how that works out. -

Quote:Does it need to be End Expensive? I guess if it's going to be low-tier, then it have to have trade-offs, though. Like having a poor End:Range ratio, particularly a worse End:Range:Time ratio than the full-on travel power so that it doesn't become a full-fledged travel power.Well, if you go with Combat Teleportation, it should be much shorter range (50-100 ft, max) and it'd be a Tier 1 or Tier 2, and be very End expensive.
I'm thinking how Hover and CJ are the combat versions of Fly and SJ. -
Quote:I want to be able to pop about in combat, repositioning whenever I want. By having it be a limited form of the Travel power Teleportation, it would have a shorter range (making it less suitable for long distances), but cost less per jump. This would make it more usable in combat as you don't pay as much per jump.Eh, could go with the BBQ Pork suggestion. Though I'm not entirely sure what he means by it.
My inspiration was the Rikti Headman Gunner, TP'ing about and popping up behind me or up on a ledge to fire at me.
While I haven't used TP as a travel power for a while, I was annoyed at it when I did. I hated the brief hover-time at the end of each "bamf" if I was in combat, particularly as a melee type. But for getting to the end of a zone (barring stopping to pop blue pills), the hover-time was useful for getting a quick reposition of the targetting reticle.
Actual range and endurance numbers could be worked out later.
Quote:As for Steampunkette's line about these all being Tier 4. Maybe, some of them I dunno if they should be Tier 4 or earlier.
Or...if we want to add nothing but "top tier" powers as new powers, then buff them to where they deserve to be rated that high.
Personally, I just want to round out the sets, not neccesarily add "MOAR POWER!!" to everything. -

Quote:I think there's a lot of powers that you could put into teleportation other than this. I'd go with a "Combat Teleportation" Much shorter range (and corresponding lower End Cost!) and no hovering at the end.I figured it'd be a good time to introduce a few ideas on new Power Pool abilities, that is, the suggestion to add a fifth one. I know some other people have made similar suggestions, but here's mine.
Teleport
Superior Teleport - Click, Teleports you to any zone on the side your currently on, prior charge up time 15 seconds, interruptable, Recharge: 90 seconds
In general, I'm in favor of "deeping the pools", even if I'm not terribly enthused with some of your particular suggestions. -
Hmm. Movies not focusing on the Skywalkers?
Jar-Jar Jedi: Meesa one wit da Force!
The Real Jawas of Tatooine (Follow five squabling matriarchs of rival Jawa families as their husbands work the junk retail business)
TROOPERS (Reality TV fare where a camera crew follows a squad of stormtroopers trying to enforce the laws on backwater planets. First episodes focus on Tatooine and Florida. Epic D.U.I. landspeeder chase. Narration by Trooper captain John Bunnel (retired).)
Sex and the (Cloud) City: five middle-aged Hutts travel to the Cloud City, in search of Men, Margaritas and moderately priced designer clothes!
The Naboo Shore: Six of Amidala's wealthy, over-sexed, over-tanned, over-inebriated under-educated cousins spend thier days partying and drinking. No explanation is given why one of them is a Gamorrean Guard.

I wish I hadn't seen that one that's popular in Portland. A certain politician's name merged with a swear word, printed in two colors so you know exactly which one of each they're spouting.
I swear quite a bit in RL, but there's a time and a place for everything. -
Hero, Vigilante, Rogue, Villain.
When you only have four choices, they will never be more than a rough guide. They'll never be written to fully encompass a detailed character's motivations, so pick what sounds closest, then fill in the blanks by using your bio field.
Yeah, I prefer the old 9-point D&D alignment chart. -
Quote:Who knows what truly lurks in thier hearts and minds?We all know Marcus Cole has never meet a Marcus Cole that he liked. Right now we sit on the verge of armed superhero conflict between the Primal and Praetorian worlds. What I fear is that while Praetoria and Prime go to war what are both Hamidons up to. Will they see each other as allies and aide each other in their goals of world destruction/rebirth? Does each Hami see the other as a kindred spirit? Is the bigger threat a cross dimensional Hami alliance?
option 1: "Hey, we have similar goals, let's team up and kick butt!"
option 2: "THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE!" *glomph*
option 3:
"So, Hami, you know what I miss?"
"What, Hami? Having opposable thumbs? Cable Television?"
"Gettin' my freak on, dude."
"Um, get away from me, dude." -
With multiple costume slots, you can go both with and without a cape.
I thought a cape looked silly when using the Sands of Mu attack, but I tend to have a caper on at least one costume. -

I believe that the fashionable answer to this is to blame it all on Flippers and complain that the Casual User is totally priced out of the market because of them and can't even afford the lowliest of Knockback IOs for his Warshade.
