    For the defense side...i can only remember the winner...Willpower. (tho i THINK Psy Armor might've been an option)

    One of the attack sets was a Bo/Staff set....which, according to a leak, we may be getting sometime in the future! (I voted for that btw!)


    The other 'armor' set was "Growth"...ie something like Mr. Fantastic...elasticity/etc...but that was basically thrown out as "doesn't quite fit because you can't have a power that makes you grow taller by x amount when you're inside a cave...." type of thing.

    Ah okay that makes more sense; please Avatea/Zwill change the Halloween page because "up to 4 players" is a bit confusing.

    And I, too, would want to know if the aura/cce is an account-wide unlock or a per-toon thing.

    Really hoping for an account-wide unlock.

    Quantum was in such need of Eva Green's hotness.....just sayin'



    But I really liked Casino Royale; I'd say the best Bond film, to me, at least...or at the very least at the very top. Having Eva Green in it sure helped

I'm not saying bringing him into something like another Avengers movie would be a problem but trying to anchor a movie around someone like that... I'm just not sure it's the right decision. The reason Marvel's movies have really worked so far is that the characters they've chosen have been big name characters that are ALMOST household names. Thor in my opinion was pushing it, but they did really well with it. So maybe I'm wrong but if all of a sudden we have a movie for every bit character then you chance running off the viewers. I mean at this point I like looking at Scarlet Johansen as Black Widow, but I can't see her in a solo movie, anyone remember Cat Woman?

    All this is coming from a guy who would love to have a Luke Cage and DEMANDS a Deadpool movie...

    I, too, kind of hope that they don't do an Ant Man movie...not sure how it'd work...

    Watching The Avengers cartoon (that came out last year or so) with him in it and was not really impressed...he could be fine in The Avengers 2 or something as a 'side' character like Hawkeye/Black Widow but...I don't know if a leading role in a movie by himself (with Wasp possibly) would do it...


    But yes to a Deadpool movie!
  7. I have a lvl 29 StJ/Regen brute that I like so far...still have some end. problems though atm

    Heh, dang I just gave her the skull on my villain...

    granted I was in a hurry and thought that either choice would get me the power...ah well...

    I had it with my StJ/Shield scrapper. Theres nothing more cool looking at a large mob, Spring Attack into the middle of the pack, Shield Charge, then lay a beating on the Leuts and Bosses. Way too much fun!

    Thanks Devs for Street Justice!

    Yeah my StJ/Regen brute is the first toon in a LOOOOOONG time to ever choose a travel power OTHER than Super Speed. Usually I always just stealth missions so SS helps with that...

    This toon, I took Super Jump...in mind that I'll be getting Spring Attack whenever I can (35 maybe?).

    I figure SA, Build Up (forgot StJ's build up name) then Spinning Strike and then whatever...


    It'll be fun trying to figure everything out!

    I love the idea of the combo system. it sounds like a much more open version of the Dual Blades combos that I also enjoy alot.

    Yep, I love StJ! And yes, StJ's combo system is what Dual Blades should have been/used.


    I really hope that the Staff/Bo powerset (whenever it comes out) will be even more awesome than StJ (not sure how but that's what I'm hoping for!)...since I am one of the ones that have been asking for a Bo/Staff set for a long time now.


    *Homer Simpson voice*

    But, "knee to the groin" (Rib Cracker) has "knee to the groin"

    */Homer Simpson voice*


    Using Rib Cracker on the Lost Lts. is great because if you use it as a finishing move you get to hit them in the 'jimmies' and get that "ooomph, unggh" sound when they die...err..get defeated...


    Edit:

    The sounds effects in StJ are bad?! Whaaaah?!?! They're awesome!
  11. If I'm on one of my lvl 50s, I prefer speed runs (or "stealth as much as possible" runs).

    If I'm something that needs XP (or there are friends/other teammates that need XP) then it's mostly a "kill most that get in the way" with a mix of "stealth if we can").

    But yes, as others have said just say what you want to do/how you want to do it...never know if you sign up for an ITF thinking it's a speed but no...it's a kill all and you don't have 2 hours to spare

    Okay, so I didn't know him personally... but we certainly didn't bring home any championships during his time at NC State. (Not that we're bringing any home now.)

    One of my friends went to NC State

    Sorry that's my only thought/connection

    Hmm, well I ran the SSA part 1 today and just watched him burn. He did shoot the ranged lightning blast attack once...maybe twice before he died.

    I noticed the Igneous don't die from the lava...not sure if that's new or not...I think it is.
  14. Finished the hero side of this arc tonight...was okay/good.

    I don't follow the story that much but it was nice to see a new enemy group I guess.

    No real issues with the missions.
  15. *not that anyone cares* but I won 2 out of the 3 leagues I'm a part of this week.

    Philip Rivers is really bugging me...he put great numbers last year but so far...pretty blah numbers...come on man!

    Edit: Oh and Vick is my 'backup' QB in one or two of my leagues....yeah...not doing much better there heh...I think his saving grace is getting some big passing and rushing yards/numbers...
  16. Don't forget that he can be defeated by using Hover or any other flying power...

    I like to watch him burn in the lava

    Easy pickins'!

    Avengers Teaser

    Looks great


    I don't see any problem in the trailer...and glad that Hawkeye is in it

    I have more to say but for now...."can't wait!"

    Stuff like that that is key. Giving everyone a quick rundown at the beginning is key as well. You don't wanna overwhelm people with details but make sure they are listening.

    And a reminder on the voting to kick someone from a league, you need 1 person to second your motion. It sucks but sometimes it's necessary if you have that odd person that keeps running their mouth and not listening.

    What Tax E said as well as what you said Laser. Communication and listening is key to any trial really...

    I'd have to agree here...is there a specific reason this area was made?

    As others have mentioned, if you wanted a build for a Blaster, you go to the Blaster section....so...unless you're nuking all of the AT specific forums/sections then (which I'd be opposed to)...I'd say this is redundant.

    Thanks!

    Ah okay, I haven't watched any of the older Doctor Who series (and most likely won't; no time!)...

    But I guess another question is, when did they mention the Brigadier in this last episode? I didn't hear anything; but then again, still have the issue where they talksofastIcan'tunderstandthem....
  22. Well if I'm on I can help out.

    Clarion Destiny really helps out for the final boss fight just fyi.

    4-5 t3 or t4 Clarions (maybe less?) and the league should be able to pull it off. Granted there's more to it than that, but...yeah...

    So I finally saw the episode last night w/ my dad and yeah it was a good episode but...again; like you said I saw how he got out of it as soon as the Doctor said, "so you can make yourself look like anyone..."

    The one thing that had really disappointed me through the whole run of the new Dr Who was the absence of the Brigadier. I was glad that they finally acknowledged just how large a part he had played in the Doctors life.

    Brigadier? Who's that?

    I have to say, "me too." At first this movie was very "meh not going to see it" but now the latest trailers seem like there's an actual story here...

    Granted it may be a re-hash of a story we've all seen/heard before but...at least it's not just "rock-em-sock-em-robots"....

    He could have been vital to the FBSA's plans!
