    This is not going to change. Getting a blind invite - especially from people who spam them over and over - will never be welcome.

    As for costume contests, filling their recipe inventory with level 50 generic IO recipes they can vendor should be a pretty good reward. If you can't use the AH, you really don't need that much influence.

For those suggestions, I think it is fair to rail against them and argue that the "idea is bad and should never happen."

    This, is not one of those suggestions, however.
    In your opinion.

    It's nice that you're willing to dismiss someone else's judgement so completely, though.

Particularly since both are entirely sensible notions, and the latter requires quite a bit less cooking.
    MMs don't have a whip set. They have a Demon Summoning set, with 3 whip attacks. Even having a petless demon MM, I know that much. That's why I was asking them to create a whole whip powerset.

    Also, there's a difference between asking for power proliferation (if I WAS asking for an "MM whip set" to be ported to other ATs) without thinking it's ok to re-animate Trick Arrow so you can use all the powers while holding guns. We HAVE several gun sets. We have ONE archery set. If you want to use guns, use those.

    If you want to play a gun set, play a gun set.

    Trick Arrow and Archery are meant to be archery sets.

    I guess it's Hellfire Whip, not Demons. And Trick Arrow.
    I gotta know how you took this shot! <3

    You do realize Hellions aren't Skulls, right?

    Because for some people, "OTHER PEOPLE ARE DOING IT WRONG!!!!" apparently causes them actual physical pain. Seems to be anyway, from the vehemence with which they berate those folks.

    Open groups!

    I'll buy into this, I enjoy this option in other games.
  9. Fantasy totally fits in this game. Read a few comics and check out a few of the other characters on your server.

    That being said, I'm against this. Emphatically.

    What we do NOT need is another MM set with larger-than-human pets cramming themselves into narrow hallways and door. And no doubt, screaming obnoxiously and setting out fire effects at random.

    Roll a demon MM and be content :P

    Yes, it does. >:| I can't tell you how much fun it is on my Plant/TA to have my fly trap suddenly run screaming across the map to agg three more spawn.

    I am totally fine with that. I would pay extra for it, no problem.

    And I agree it would probably end up being a Dom-style "assault" set, and I am totally fine with that too.

    Pet Update

    Frankly, I'd just like the option to have the appearance lock into the pet once I've named him. I don't know if it affects anyone besides Thugs, but it's very disconcerting when Billy Blaze goes from being a redhead to a black guy when I zone :P

    Also, why can't controllers/doms at least NAME our pets? I understand we can't control them, but can we at least give them names please?
  13. Yup, I'm gonna throw it out here in the suggestion forum.

    Much like Dual Pistols was put together for all the people who really wanted a 2-gun mojo powerset when the only place it appeared was the thugs MM set, some of us really want the whip powers from Demon Summoning and don't want the demons.

    Liberate the whip!
  14. Take Share Pain.

    Hit your vet pet with it before you pull.

    +Dmg buff, profit, while soloing

    I'm not sure why you'd say that. The attacks that exist right now are ranged. Why would they change that when they make a full set?

    This. This, this, this. I do not understand why there isn't more of this stuff. If you don't have an SG, you are basically screwed on so many fronts.

    Back when I started, we didn't have multiple costume slots, and we didn't even have Icon stores! You rolled your character, and whatever costume you picked, THAT WAS IT! "Oh, I wish I had a red shirt instead of a green one!" Yeah, well, DELETE your character and make a new one! "But I'm level 40!" Suck it up, you Nancy; that's why they gave you a whopping EIGHT character slots!

    And we LIKED it that way!
    Ahahah, I remember those days... but not with fondness. NO one liked it that way :P

    Yeah, I'm against this change. It's more pointless annoyance in the name of convenience.

    But if you think you can convince them to make a Whip Blast set, go ahead. I know I'd play it.
    I would too!!

    But until they make that set....

    Please show me the whip set for Corruptors and I will gladly concur. Corruptors are my favorite AT.

  21. I've done it. I've got a petless Demon MM/Thermal, yes, for the whip attacks and because I CANNOT STAND the demon pets. I hate them sooo much, but I love the whip attacks, so there I am.

    Her build is actually pretty good, she's mostly softcapped for defense, and she does decent damage. I play her in a trio with my husband and be friend, and I don't feel particularly gimped, though I realize I'm stretching the concept past the AT.

    If that earlier post about whip assault going in the Paragon store is ACTUALLY true, I will reroll her in a HEARTBEAT. Like I said, I didn't really want an MM, let alone a demon MM (for some reason, the AT does not click with me at all) but I love the look of the whip and I've got the luxury of being able to roll one and play with friends who won't hassle me about it.

  23. I had limited goals, and met them, so I feel pretty good!

    Got my KM/WP scrapper from 44 to 50

    Got my WA/SD brute from 36 to 44, so I could solve her awful End problems with my epic pool.

    Got my Earth/Rad troller from 24 to 29. Almost 30, dang it!

    Altogether, very pleased!
