bots/pain + bodyguard mode + heal on auto MM = almost unkillable in pvp?

- inevitable nerf = disappointment

[/ QUOTE ]
The sad thing is, I'm already having a Zombie/Pain mastermind come into possibility purely for conceptual reasons.

[/ QUOTE ]

Go for it then!, I'm not saying it won't be any good, I'm just saying that any new powerset combination that unexpectantly makes a toon unkillable will (sooner or later) get re-balanced in line with everyone else.

Interising points about shields:

Stalkers get them too: Castle was originally against this.

Shields protect "themselves and their allies".

Yes but that would only make sense if its a Cone Defense.

Empathy: Heal Other
Pain Domination: Spank Other?

I don't know about 'I'll get my coat'...
I think I need to 'Fetch my glasses' because I read that as 'Spank Otter'..... which sounds equally filthy if you ask me.

Won't the Editor of The Paragon Times get suspicious if everytime theres a Hero Event message broadcast HIS ENTIRE STAFF makes unlikely excuses and disappear!

[ QUOTE ]
So is pain a new set or a modified empathy?

[/ QUOTE ]

For all the build-up this set has had, I'm kinda hoping for a new set, new animations, new graphical FX/SFX etc.
If it turns out to be a Red-side Empathy Redux I'm going to feel disappointed - heres hoping!

[ QUOTE ]
Hmm pain domination. Anti mothers love? See you in the zones .

[/ QUOTE ]

Mother's Praetorian Alt is on the edge of Villain patrons, Pain Domination is going to have to be pretty freakin good to re-roll to be honest!.

... Animation wise, Powers wise, Specification-wise - I'm kinda hoping it is.

but the Booster Pack has really gotten my wind up!

[/ QUOTE ]

Not just yours?? What a crock!! How long till most of the content in an issue is paid for?

[/ QUOTE ]

A very, very long time

[/ QUOTE ]

It has been said clearly, many many times, that the micro-payment packs will not include any extras that give players a competitive edge over others, they are purely additional eye-candy.

I sincerely hope there are lots more costumes in Issue:13 to be added to the costume creator for everyone, that is after all what we expect for our subscription for.
That said I don't begrudge additional goody packs on a conceptual theme for anyone who wants them, It just happens to be Cyborgs this time around.

The addition of a power included in the Super Booster I pack is going to have to be purely cosmetic/Roleplay orientated isn't it if NorCal hold true to their previous word.

[ QUOTE ]
I'm gonna buy the cyborg pack and a release after october? Too late imo

[/ QUOTE ]

Don't forget we still have Zombie Apocalypse leading up to, through and beyond Halloween!, It was always going to be after really.

I'm sitting here furiously pinging my antennae in delight at the announcement of the Super Booster I: Cyborg pack!

...sound a lot more interesting and feature-packed than the infamous wedding pack!.

Apparently if you log out whilst chilling in the secret Faultline Cryptic Lounge you get Free Stooff™, timecards and a foot massage from your choice of Dev.

I thought all NCsoft employees had Freakshow-esque subdermal Blackberry™ implants as standard?

MUMSIE'S BLATANT ATTEMPT AT REVERSE PSYCHOLOGY !!!

[i]Comon guys!, this is beginning to appear less about 'waiting for approval' and more about 'haven't got around to it yet'.

Dammit, I can't find a LOLCat for this!

Invisible bike?

Adding a stick of Official NCsoft-branded 'Brighton Rocks' rock to the prizefund for both the winner of the race and the costume contest.

Raptor packs definately out, The idea of being able to use the jump-pack but tactically at the right time for your route is the idea. Obviously marshalls are going to be on-hand to watch the contestants - closely, but powersets will be looked at on entry and any abuses such as temp-powers or swimming would obviously be disqualification.
I would suggest SG-less to avoid the use of base portal temp powers and under level 5 then if Goldbrickers packs become available.
We can get a feel for whether contestants want to go further than Cap Au Diablo on the run-up to this Halloween event.
No objection personally to it going further if that appears to be the consensus.

Happy to have old-timers on-board Scarlet

Re: Pff, yes that for obvious reasons would be excluded, as are other speed enhancing powers such as Syphon-speed and Accelerate Metabolism. I'd like the idea to be you can either slot for defence/resist damage, speed, or heals and just sprint and the jump-pack.

Happy to put this up for debate re:level... I suggest perhaps level 5 maximum? I've started the thread well ahead of Halloween so we can finesse the details.

Cap au Diablo far enough for you at that level, or would you like a longer race?

Alls fair in Love 'n' War ....

well, all except persistant droning anyway.

I am looking for volunteers to help me police and judge a Race Event and following it, a Costume contest this Halloween Friday 31st October.

Halloween Zombie Apocalypse: The Rogue Isles Race

The race will be on the Union Server and will be a low-level deathrace of survival (I'm thinking Level 5 limit) from Kalinda in Mercy straight up to and past Mongoose (Or over wall via permitted Jump-pack) into Mercy, through Mercy to the Ferry to Port Oakes, - cutting through Port Oakes to the Cap Au Diablo Ferry. Once in Cap you will race through or around Aeon plaza over your choice of bridge (no contact with water is allowed in the entire race) through to the University campus. The finishing point at the telephones by the Sphere statue outside the University. Test-runs before the competition date are thoroughly recommended.

I am looking for volunteer Marshalls for the course and I am looking for one or more people to offer to help video capture the event if possible. I can't organise and run this all on my own.

Please feel free to suggest AT-Class restrictions above the obvious exclusion of stalkers for their hide ability, or any loopholes/ exploits you may think of.

#Because of the Zombie-themed DVD prizes the event has an age-limit of 18.
#I imagine you must have the jump-pack to stand a credible chance of winning.
#No temp-travel powers are allowed
#I would appreciate feedback as to how you think Zombie spawns would effect or enhance this race.
