Jolly good show, old chap! Rather spiffy if I do say so myself.

Just incase anyone cba to read the link

I haven't seen one of these done here yet and my search-fu agrees with me. Assuming that Shields will be in Issue 13 and that this won't affect proliferated powersets, what 2 powersets (1 primary 1 secondary) do you think each base AT will get / would you like them to get?

Personally, with a mix of expected / hopeful:

Blaster Primary - Dark Blast
Blaster Secondary - Dark Manipulation
Brute Primary - Claws
Brute Secondary - Regeneration
Controller Primary - Electric Control
Controller Secondary - Cold Domination
Corruptor Primary - Psychic Blast
Corruptor Secondary - Force Fields
Defender Primary - Fire Blast
Defender Secondary - Thermal Radiation
Dominator Primary - Dark Control
Dominator Secondary - Dark Assault
Mastermind Primary - Cyber-Zombies!!!
Mastermind Secondary - Sonic Resonance
Scrapper Primary - Energy Melee
Scrapper Secondary - Energy Aura
Staker Primary - Fiery Melee
Stalker Secondary - Fiery Aura
Tanker Primary - Electric Armour
Tanker Secondary - Electric Melee

So, thoughts?

I will be there with someone, yes

Also, to throw out an idea I had earlier this week (bearing in mind I know this will never happen )

Replace Dull Pain with Instant Healing
Divide the HP boost from Dull Pain into the 3 Res passives

TADA!

Don't think I've seen either a character in Samurai Armour or a Boxer in my time in CoH, but perhaps less useful would have been a better turn of phrase

4 in Samurai Armour over 'ere.

Also...

YES!

At the idea of being able to pick which you want.

They are. They're listening to the player base as a whole. Just because your opinion differs from the majority, that doesn't mean you're right. Every MMO has balancing issues and this results in near-constant buffs & nerfs.

"If it's broke, fix it"

2/And why spend all your time with your DPS counters and Animation timers out critising other peoples work when you could actually be creating something else for us all to enjoy, NEW powersets, NEW animations, NEW Enemies.

[/ QUOTE ]

Skipping the rest, will read in a minute.

Why? How about... they have other people doing those things!

IMO, the resistance passives are where a buff is needed most. Since HPT from WP is better than all 3 Inv resistance passives combined, they're a little overdue for some love. I always take them anyway, great places to slot the +psi and +res/+def IOs.

Why do I keep thinking it's at 7 >_<

Done to death...

Fill it with winter beasties and you're done

Claws!

RIP! REND! RAWR!

Also, Regen... just for poops and giggles

It doesn't suppress either... that or I've just never noticed it does

Just clarifying that I'll be there.

Why? You and I havent crossed swords in a long time and if we ever do I wont be the one firing the first shot.

Crossed swords firing the first shot???

Are you just mixing metaphors or are you suggesting gun kata as the set to save melee characters?

[/ QUOTE ]

Obviously he means this

Having a soft spot for using and ^^ as well as many glaring typing errors ingame (mostly mixing up N and G from -ing to make -ign) I'd say I fall into the "finds humour in everything" subset most of the time. I know it's annoying because people like me annoy me - being a hypocrite is great.

On the other hand, I'm sure someone (although no-one is entirely possible) has noticed that I can get a little too serious in my... discussions, on this board. Again, this type of person annoys me, so I'm a bigger hypocrite.

So, to answer the question - someone who is both extremes but does not allow others to be the same is the type of person who annoys me - I can't stand hypocrites!

Rad/Kin has good damage from /Kin and the -Def of Rad/ helps your best buffs hit.

Rad/Sonic also has good damage due to the -Res of /Sonic and again, the -Def from Rad/ will help some of your debuffs hit.

Can't speak from experience on /Traps but from what I've seen, it's got a little of everything.

I'd say Rad/Kin if you want to be damage support, Rad/Sonic if you want to be defensive support and Rad/Traps if.... you want to be a Rad/Traps.

So, Sister Psyche at 7 (unless Xtream isn't 20 - then Faultine?)

Facts:
I consider the base damage of Spines powers to be roughly where they should be (no spreadsheets here, but that's the general thing I remember.)
The primary issue I have with the set lies with the plethora of secondary effects. If I were to proceed, I'd likely eliminate the Immobilize stacking and tone down the Slows. I'd take a look at the DOTs, too. Range and animations almost certain would not be touched.

A spines pass is not on my schedule, currently...which means it's unlikely for at least a year (schedules can and do change, though!)

Looks fine to me.

I'm getting tired of random people buffing me and armouring be for no reason, so i propose we have an option where you right click on the Buff/armour and have a Delete option.

On top of this, we could have a setting saying "accepting buffs" and "Not accepting buffs" so we can prevent it or go with the buffs by choice.

Its getting quite annoying talking to someone and suddenly your on fire, also, the buff in sonic resonance that repels melee range opponents will make it tricky for Melee AT's to hit opponents up close.

I hope this gets put in game ASAP, I'm sure most of us here will too

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah, I just hate being made harder to kill / better at smashing things...

NO!

I was hoping I13 would finally give me a lvl 50 spines/WP brute, but doesn't seem like it's worth doing now.

Oohh, you know the changes that Spines is getting? Tell us please

It's unfair because people are gettign given something Free that others are paying for through no fault of NCSoft.

Perhaps I should change my billing to maestro just to get some free game time?

[/ QUOTE ]

Or, it could be an apology for the way the announcing (or rather not) of the problem was handled? No disrespect to GR, he did a good job finding out what was going on once the problem had come to light. But the fact that the first most people knew about it was when a player posted on the boards, and many people had no advance warning to make alternate arrangements, seems to me to make a little free game time a nice gesture.

[/ QUOTE ]

Then the people that were inconvenienced at the time should get the free time. People that haven't even had any problems are getting free time due to their method of payment?

[/ QUOTE ]

Since their new method of payment will likely cost more than their old one, I'd say it's fair.

Perhaps it's the extra inconvenience of having to re-sub every 60 days and not being able to only pay for only 1 month or even 3 or 6?

As I pay for 3 months at a time (usually) I expect my payments per month to go up slightly. The game time is a welcome bonus for me but for others, it may be just what keeps them subbed a little longer if they end up paying more than they used to.
