My main, Utopia, would have to use her tiara.

Quote:Aww, no love for controllers either? Do you like any "squishies"?One of the reasons I'm deleting a level 50 Blaster is because I don't like Blasters. This is one small part of over half the ATs in the game that I don't like. I've pretty much settled on a Brute and I'd like to stick with that, as this is what offers me personal protection, offensive strength and directness of action.
Electric Armor can be tweaked to look pretty spectacular I think. I love the power set. Also for theme purposes, she could also create weapons out of energy (Talsorian), so that could justify her using swords and the like. Not that there is anything wrong with Energy Melee. -
If she can create worlds out of nothing, why not make her an Illusion/Force Field controller or something?
As for your secondary for a melee character, Electric Armor might also work in funtion and theme. -
Reading this through to the end is important... lol.

Players asking for a nerf makes kittens cry.

How do you people have access to these pieces and movies and screenies and such? I must know!
-
This logging people out issue upsets Utopia as well...

Quote:I played back then and I totally don't remember that. 10 Million influence to someone with pics!LOL...is there anyone out there who remembers when there were cows in the game? (Issue 1) They were mostly in Perez, and if you attacked them, all they'd do was MOOOO. They moved their heads (like grazing) and had big googly eyes. They were gone by issue 2 or three.

Quote:Glad you agree! I also have several children, tween and teen toons. My best one is Shortstack, an 8 year old girl with rock skin (Tanker). Stone pigtails and overalls, funtimes.It took me 53 years to get around to making babies, but due to double XP (I assume), my wife & I had twins. ; )
This is a good question, Utopia. Paragon or Praetoria would feel much more like a real city if there were moms pushing prams, kids wandering about getting into minor mischief which players might get small, funny easter-egg type rewards for preventing, and we definitely need more than two girls named Penelope. (I assume that Penny Preston in FF probably has "Penelope" on her birth certificate as a legal first name.) The Devs are usually so detailed & ingenius with NPCs that I'm surprised they didn't expend more effort to give one of these characters a very different name from the other.
On the other hand, I see that the "Perils of Penelope Yin" is a plot device in Praetoria, which was a nice touch...
Where is the ubiquitous (in comics) gangly genius kid with hair in his eyes and potato chip crumbs on his "Statesman" t-shirt who can tweak your jetpack, making it either perform beyond expectations, or (oops) blow up? Or the "Rick Jones" / "Snapper Carr" superhero wanna-be/sometimes is, who won't stop tagging along after you & getting into trouble? (Percy Winkley is a bit too old for such loose-cannon shennanigans, & in no real need of rescue after the first couple of Midnighter arc mishes.)
In any case, more child / teen NPCs would really add Silver Age flavour to the game, & it would be fun to see a couple of normal kids (if there are any) throwing frisbees in the park.
But perhaps Paragon is underpopulated by children because they have all been kidnapped by one nefarious group or another for sacrifice, ransom, and/or experiments), while Paretorian kids either hide in the sewers or have Cole-inspired Tiger Moms who keep them burdened with various extracurricular activities and thus off the street.
I myself created a "Cole Compassionate Child Care Center" (the CCCCC) for my Brute, Strong Kid, to have been confined in after her politically incorrect parents were whisked off for readjustment. This was just for my own fun, as part of her bio, but perhaps there are more children in CCCCC than I believed.
We can't have it all (don't get me started on the need for personal vehicles for Natural toons; that's an entire game expansion akin to Going Rogue). But yes, I vote for more kids in CoX, both as background and NPCs. -
Quote:It's an honor that you posted in my thread. It's also an honor that you shared the story of the pygmy woman with the small wieners.Boy isn't that height slider scale something, eh?
They're just really short adults. I know this because I made some of them during CoV. But that slider...wow... The thing was, you create a small NPC (which is fine by themselves) and then you attach them to an animation and it scales with them.
So I had this woman running a hot dog cart, and the cart scaled so small that if you were to realistically "buy" the hot dog, it would be about the size of one of those appetizer cocktail wieners that come in a can. (Better be a price break!)
So there you have it. A moment of development time from me.

Quote:The only animals I've seen our seagulls I think... good lord, there aren't any fish either! There's just a crap ton of flies and roaches and junk! And a giant octopus!There's no children OR animals... Which just make me ask why?
They don't have to be attackable- it would just really add to the atmosphere of the game. Not to mention how many missions could be made around children and animals.
Where do they get the meat for the tacos at El Super Mexicano if there's no animals!? Tacos in Talos? I'll pass -
People seem ok with smacking old people around in Paragon. Plus, in the Lady Grey Task Force, you could fail Penelope and be forced to watch as she dies, poor girl. Line crossed.
-
It just depends on what I want the character to do really. For tanks, I make sure they are steady as possible. For scrappers, it all depends. Regen likes defense and a lot of recharge, at least in my builds. But I generally want them to all be reasonably sturdy in the long run, if that answers your question.
-
Where they be? Penelope must be the only girl in her class. Isn't that little girl in Founders Falls called Penny? I think we should be rescuing more little kids and seeing them play in the parks. We should have schools and playgrounds. We could have a Child's Booster Pack with sneakers, pigtails, sportswear, overalls, the works. Plus we could change the boob slider so that when I make an 8 year old girl, she doesn't have a B-Cup.
It's been 7 years. It's time Paragon made some babies. -
Quote:What is squicky?Well I'm curious if you can do something het. I dunno, maybe Tyrant and Mother Mayhem. (I mean I know you believe in the TyrantDomi pairing, but seriously, I think What Tyrant and MM must do behind closed doors makes even incest seem less squicky)
(Totally not to find out if that's your Kryptonite for later exploitation)
Also, have you made a Praetorian Golden Girl yet? I bet she'd be into Dominatrix. Just saying. -
This thread was slipping. I think Golden Girl is sleeping on the job. Make me something pretty, woman!

Quote:"Have you ever tried simply turning off the tv, sitting down with your children, and hitting them?"I want to do Citadel and Luninary, but I need a great Bender pickup line to go in a speech bubble.
Anyone got any good Bender pickup lines committed to memory?
"Shut up, baby. I know it!"
"My place, or you?" -
Quote:What if Shalice's birthday is the earlier date of 1920 and her later Bday is her current host?How would that explain a difference in birthdays?
There are 2 pieces of conflicting data on how old Sister Psyche is. First we have the Freedom Phalanx novel which puts her as 16 during Nemesis's VE Day invasion and then we have the Calender Wallpapers on the CoH webs site which list Shalice's birth day as July 13, 1920.
Mother Mayhem was born during the Hamidon Wars,and since the Korean War is mentioned in Tyrant's Bio as predating that, presumably sometime after 1950.
Also Tyrant's bio seems to place the 2010 as 25 years after the end of the war (1985) at which point Mother Mayhem is 22 or less so it would seem she couldn't have been born any earlier the 1963.
