    Knockback is the exception in the world of mez, since it isn't technically a status effect. Internally, Knockback powers are set up differently and don't make use of the "magnitude" variable; they simply have a force/distance value, which can be buffed.

    Forgotten about wha--heeeeeeey. I see what you did there!

    Very funny, but I haven't forgotten yet.

    Remind me to look into this. I've done some "research" that brings the user agreement into question, and according to my understanding of how mezzes work, magnitude cannot be altered in any way. If Enhancements alter the effect of Only Affect Self powers and not the duration, then those powers must be configured differently internally.

    If Intangibility magnitude can be buffed, then it's a bug. The Enhancements have been called "Intangibility Duration" for years now.

    Technically, the ellipsis is a single punctuation mark… but since it looks like three periods, people write it with three periods…

    Mez magnitude cannot be buffed. Not with Enhancements, not with Domination (which actually applies an additional round of mez on top of the first one), not with anything.

    The only aspect of a mez power that can be buffed, debuffed or resisted is the duration.

    What LostHalo is probably experiencing is the effects of the powers wearing off (due to mez resistance) without the HamiOs before they could be stacked enough to affect the AVs. I can see how this could be interprated as an increase in the powers' magnitudes.

    Ah, well, that changes things. I must have been looking the other way when that one went through... or simply forgot about it as soon as it happened.

    In that case: yeah! Imperious is insufficient! I'm tired of Romans. Lemme team up with Ouroboros to fight against the Battalion for a change! That "coming storm" seems all but averted by now... Maybe a clever plot device so the story writers don't actually have to flesh it out?
  10. Citadel needs to read Dr. Aeon's post about boring, repetitive missions.
  11. I use it for the dramatic crash on Power Surge. All my powers detoggle anyway, so I might as well look good doing it. It's like that super-cool strutting guy with an attitude.

    Other than that, there was this one time I got so annoyed at the hostage failing to follow me......

    That's 35-50. And why does everyone forget about the poor Lady Grey? Imperious was SO last millenium. Come on, people! Fight some Rikti for a change!
  13. I've been looking for pictures and videos of the old Sonic Resonance to no avail. Does anyone have something I can look at? Although I've been playing since Issue 6 and they changed the set in Issue 10, I guess I never really paid that much attention to it before it took place.

    I am very glad you can't. Remind me to never give you a paintbrush.

    I wouldn't say it was that so much as the fact that the only two Brutes were Willpower and Electric Armor--not exactly heavy spike damage aggro tanking machines.

    But other than that, fun stuff! Will definitely pitch in next time if I'm available.
  16. We trumped Archus before all the waves of ambushes came in. I'd never seen that before.
  17. Way to set the "Players are Debuffed" option on that Renault run, Cath. -ToHit city!
  18. Think of it more like a yearbook. It's a neat idea, but I honestly can't see it happening with the manpower we have available.
  19. I was in the Rikti War Zone and saw a Vanguard Adept with Lightning Field. Now, I don't deal with Vanguard much, and this is the first time I actually saw that. The electricity was green, and I immediately thought "what a terrible color choice" before realizing it was an NPC.

    There's a variety of Gunslinger that's a boss. Not only are they more powerful, but they teleport as well. They're among the nastiest bosses in the game for sure, right up with Bane Spider Executioner and Blade Prince (albeit an EB).

    unpleasantly moist or humid; damp and, often, chilly: a dank cellar.

    The grellow Poison looks like an oozing something that came out of somewhere. I'll keep my vibrant splishy-splashy powers over that.
