i hate to say it, but i had my doubts. inventions, meh, that's okay. my least favorite element of other MMOs, tweaked to be a little less annoying. rikti invasion? not bad, but not really that new. just grinding rikti missions to get the vanguard tokens, or not, in a new (but not really new) zone, with new (but not really new) enemies.

but now i see. mine eyes have been opened, the Devs have spoke, and it is good. a new age is dawning in paragon city, an age where the love of the Devs comes down like mana from heaven, not in an overwhelming downpour, but in well-regulated rainfall.

and just when i was starting to get a little bored. don't disappoint me, Devs. this announcement portends great things to come, and while issue 11 will be great, it promises to be only the beginning of the new age. i predict greater things in our future: more powersets, more customization, a truly unique villain epic AT.

don't prove me wrong. don't break my heart.

i know this is kind of resurrecting a near-dead thread, but i had an experience recently with a pickup team on infinity which was amazing.

first off, the team instigator was a bubbler who seems to have an affinity for kheldians, and he invited me on my 22 PB. it didn't take long to get a full team: 3 tri-form WS, 3 tri-form PB, 1 emp defender, and the aforementioned bubbler. we were all sk'd up a few levels, 24 or 25 i think.

i would have loved to do a TF with this team, but just doing missions was a blast. we did one banished pantheon sewer mish which ended in a huge room full of shamans, zombies, and several totems. there was no strategy for the khelds, we just used whichever form we felt worked best for the situation at hand. the bubbler kept us well protected and the emp kept us well green, and we tore up that room like an energy blender.

nothing is more satisfying than build up, nova scatter, nova detonation, drop to dwarf for an AoE, pull some aggro, tp away and nova some more cones and AoE attacks. that x 6 ppl. in a large, dense room, kheld novas can be devastating, and they debuff too.

it was the most fun i've had in-game in a while. an all-kheld, or mostly-kheld w/ FF and/or emp super team would be a blast. maybe call 'em the Squid Brigade?
