  1. Tankmage not good idea.

    Good idea when wanting awesome sauce, bad idea when wanting balance.
  2. For an annual paid expansion I would expect them to stop giving us free 3/4 monthly issues with nice juicy content and save it all for the once annual.

    I would expect some addendum to the subscription model to compensate, to entice people into buying it.

    The other (WoWier option) is to keep the same subscription model and instead make players characters/IOs etc obsolete by a large margin, effectively forcing people into buying the expansion.

    Froman expectation of content - a dozen or so new costume sets, 1 new powersets for each AT, 1 proliferated powerset. New end game and mid game Task Forces. Some QoL stuff in there, though hopefully basic QoL and bug fixes wouldnt take a year between stuff. New Zones.

    Basically my biggest expectation would be that I simply would not like it. Theres not alot that could be done to make the majority of people think "oh hey, hat i used to get as part of my sub spread out during the year, I now get to pay for as well as my sub, and get once a year".

    So seriousl yhappy this will remain a hypothetical thing unless of course the Devs, on completion of Going Rogue annouce Going Into Space, and then when that releases in a year announce Going Undersea

    Gotta DNA test all the atheletes for Mutations, scan them for cybernetics, blood/urine test them for Super Serums (okay, already done), cast Detect Magic on all of them. Then check on all of the coaches and staff.
    You can't have a Gravity Controller or a Speed Boost caster in range, so then you gotta keep the crowd away.
    and then since highly trained individuals of a natural origin can register as supers....

    I'd even drop Cinders before I dropped Flashfire, but there's no need to since you should drop Bonfire without a doubt.

    If you think you can run it, you might try dual PBAoE auras with both hotfeet and mudpots - I'm not sure how well that will work out, but it would increase your AoE damage.
    mudpots' area is just too small to justifiably have it, stuff has to be literally touching you
  5. With Skin... please.

    Also having the bioluminescent as a secondary for all (or most) tops / bottoms would be nice.

    actually here is a build with 180% recharge, and 41.1% def to S/L (+ 5.91% -acc with smoke), this time with power boost turned off ;p
    Nope. Power boost not toggled on. Toggling it on puts my defence values up to 67% and doesnt affect the recharge, so 47% Smash/Lethal Defence and 176.3% Global Recharge, plus the variable recharge addition of 2 forcefeedback procs. and 28% Energy defence, which aint bad considering its not the goal.



    EDIT: to respond to PBaRmy, shouldnt really need a +End power but Domination going off alotm especially not one on a fast enough recharge to be used every time your between Domination clicks, with a 360 second base. Secondly, while i think Soul Mastery's shield should provide defence, it provides resistance, using the mace shield gives you a slotted ~20% Defence, and the blast provides a -def/-res, increasing your DPS indefinately (being a 30sec duration, recharging in sub 3 seconds for me, no idea if it stacks, i imagine not, as that owuld be overkill)
  9. Havent looked too long at damage output or endurance consumption, but just a 5 minute bang up.

    Perma Dom and Smash / Lethal Cap;

    quite expensive however.

  13. Mega_Jamie

    Umm Codes?

    Good Luck code hunters, im off to work. Glad Avatea made it more difficult to hack it this time!
  14. as will the enxt one, no doubt, unless you change what url you post it to.
  15. Mid's says 44.5 for me.

    Either your database is borked, or you are using it wrong.

    Did you right click TK Thrust or accidentally hover over another power and not realise?

    Even with aim and buildup selected as on, it isnt getting to your value.
  16. I (nearly) always use Magic Origin.

    for a year of rollingup new villains ot try to find one to level up substantially I did not know Drea existed.

    Not impressed with the Receptionist's attempt to fob her off, she demanded entrance to the Paragon Studios Offices, to show Castle exactly how fun "Baseball Melee" could be.

  19. Really the Devs can't add anything until the marketing demons decide whether its something they can go ahead with. My hope would be to adding a EU only booster, but then I gather than Aussie players on US, or people unable to get to a store would demand the same thing on US servers, which would then make it not so special anyway.

    The worst thing is, since the game files on US and EU servers have ot be the same, these things are gonna be on our servers, just not accessable.

    Echoing Coins sentiments.

    The very first year I attended the London Film and Comic Con there was an NCSoft stall, and although i was already playing Guild Wars, CoH had never even appeared on my radar until I had a go, and picked up a trial account.

    It is also technically near(er) to the East Coast.

    In all seriousness, not knowing what cons are where the in the states, knowing how big a place it is, it would be nice for the middle american players to get some love, theres alot of mileage between those coasts.
  21. Touch Of Death?

    it was a good day when I could slot that too
  22. If you roll blueside straight from the off, don't expect to have access to those patrons when the time comes. Will probably be scrapper Epics, or something.
  23. I would not.

    BUT that is because I tend to make one costume (maybe 2 or 3 but just alt colours) and that costume IS my character. Just like Superman barely ever changes clothes, neither do my heroes.

    That being said,

    /sign simple because people want it, and it would be more revenue for the game, and not something I would have to worry wasting my money on, unlike character slots.
  24. I like the idea of splitting Soul Bound to get the set bonus twice, never thought of that.

    The overall loss of 6% global recharge isnt that big a deal, and make sthe build slightly more affordable, since I have most of the purples in a base blueside, I was aiming to complete once I can go rogue and slot them, removing the purps drops it to potentially achievable sooner, with what I have redside.

    With your changes the only thing im not happy with is the loss of the Lockdown Proc for Petrifying Gaze.But I may be able to salvage that from elsewhere in there.
