    Having to use Unstoppable and then backing away to stay at range sound like problems to me.
  2. You can use the hospital button in the Hive now, it has a med cot with I19.

    Which is just so helpful for this 20-29 arc.
  4. Really they just need to give you some big AoE attack temp power like Statesman's Zeus' Lightning Bolt for the mission.
  5. Terrible photo, you can see the shadow of the lower-left person, and with an aspect ratio wider than the circle that is the focus you have significant amounts of useless space on the left and right edges.

    Certainly a favorable suggestion, but in the meantime, can't you just leave the reward window open and log off until you are eligible again?
  7. Is this some kind of pyramid scheme?

    No More Tips?

    There definitely seems to be a problem with getting tip missions to change alignment. My Rogue Scrapper has been getting no tips at all in Paragon, but my Hero Blaster doesn't have any trouble with it.
  9. Good idea. When CoV came out, we got an extra five spaces, enough to add "Evil " to any existing character name. Now, with Praetoria and its shades of gray, we need another five spaces to add "Less " to any existing character name. This would finally allow me to make my dream character, "Less Evil Big Mountebank."

    That, or it's just a neat little quirk that's unique to the incarnate shards.
    I remember it being pointed out in the beta that a full team of 8 gets more shards per hour on average than a single player running on x8, even if that single player clears missions faster than the full team.

    I might not remember it exactly accurately, but you definitely get the most shards on big teams.

    I'm sure they would, if I could be arsed to list every single piece of salvage every time my inventory fills up.
  12. It has become too much of a bother to list every single piece of salvage I don't want on the market. Selling or deleting is quicker by far, and I don't care about the monetary loss.

    However, I do want to supply the economy with salvage, so here's my suggestion:

    Have a "Listing Service" available at the auction house. This is a button in your salvage window that becomes available while the market interface is open. It will dump all your invention salvage on the market at prices determined by recent trends. Mass-marketed goods take up only one inventory slot at the market.

    This convenience would have tradeoffs. First, the market will take 50% of the total profit, though the listing price would still be 5%. Second, mass-marketed items can't be recovered.

    I know I would use this service, because the alternative is too time-consuming.

Even from a game symmetry point of view it makes sense for there to be heroic patron power pools, especially now that villains have access to the ancillary power pools.
    But then we still have the problem of players who want the other side's powers because those specifically are the powers they want, only now there's twice as many of them.

    The fact is, "hero patrons" and "way for heroes to unlock villain patrons" are separate issues. Heroes who want the villain patron pools don't want them because they're patrons, they want them because of the powers they have. Adding hero patrons wouldn't change that.
  15. I like it, though the name seems weird, and the other powers could use work. I don't think a travel power should need another power to be better.

    Co-op Zones

    Co-op zones already allow transit between cities, what's the benefit of this?

    The patron pools are samey enough as-is, I don't think adding even more along those lines would go over well.

    I realized something curious about the Shivans, though. They're made of ectoplasm, a blue/green goo. They have cores that rest at the center of their mass. They come from meteor fragments; rocks that pulse with a strange energy that apparently have some kind of sentience about them. And they use human bodies as a host of sorts.

    Ectoplasm with a core at its center? Sentient rocks powered by a strange energy? And they (can) use human bodies as a host.
    Hamidon is protoplasm, not ectoplasm.
  19. I think you'll have a problem with screen real estate. Mids is huge and busy, and not because it's poorly designed.
  20. I really doubt an anagram of Ramiel's name will have any meaning. Ramiel is the name of an archangel; I think that path of research would have more importance.
  21. Why do people think that adding the "one time" qualifier makes this any more of a desirable suggestion?
