that bear looks awesome. almost like he was bitten by some coralax O_O

CORAL BEAR RAWWWRRRRR :bile spray, coral claw, and frost breath: BAM coolest pet evar.

and im all for alt options to the dang dogs. but probs for controller pets before MM pets, seems to be easier with the already color changing and, at least with animate stone, alt skins.

whips are more likely to happen as an epic pool, thereby allowing it to be on several AT's potentially some meelee ATs and some ranged or control ATs.

this will happen by combining it with other "Hellfire" powers the demons use. these attacks are varied enough and can be mixed and matched with the 3/4[if 4th is altered or not] whip powers to cover AT epic pool needs.

maybe. imo, this is most likely to happen to any actual 9 power whip set.

WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT


the Dog behind the tree in the screenshot with the quiver... [@ about 12.5min]

is he wearing sunglasses?

O_O

remember that dog wit something on his back from the asteroid space shot previewing mech armor?


is this a thing?

maybe dont think of it as "water" exactly. think: acid, glue, paint, oil, mucus, beverage, condiment, chemical, or any other fine particle or liquid material. i've seen someone play it as sand with /dark.


if you want WATER water, well then think of all the things a person could be with a relationship with water. mystical spirit, nature spirit, mer-person, pressurized suit, fisherman, lobster-person, alien with aqua-powers, or simply a mutant with water-based powers.

there is so much potential really, to build a character from this set XD i dont seem to have any trouble at all. the secondaries only make it that much easier.

Hi!

I have several Thorny doms, it's probably my favorite powerset after storm summoning XD but i'm never sure how I should slot it. I know some of it depends on my Primary and how I want to play my character, but I was looking for advice on how to slot /Thorns in general for any primary, and wanted to know what others have done or advise. i'm not sure if certain dom powers are usually slotted best one way [ex: "t1 assault blast always works best with five devastation" or whatever], and I usually just frankenslot with procs.

but how would you or how do you slot Thorns?




if i DID have a direction, it would be "optimal toxic dmg output".

:EDIT: or maybe think as if Thorns was your primary powerset and the control set [plant would be default but any i guess] would be the secondary.

how do you slot Thorny Assault?

Paladiamors, you're mostly right, but there really are some absurdly crazy haters in game i have met that have given me grief as i'm standing in atlas once they read my bio/powers and see that i have no pets. O_O

all my trollers and mm's for the set bonus updates coming with i24 for pet ios. ^_^

wow i will never understand haters SO vehemently hating on things that others do for their own pleasurable gameplay when it doesnt really affect them.

you know what would be cool?

if MM inherents worked like Defender inherents and the base dmg and base [whatever, survuvability] was better if you dont have any active pets [like defender solo/small team] and then went back down to normal-for-mm-with-pets-which-is-still-optimal.

eh?





also, yay new UI allowing for moar customization! how about alt models for pets using "npc transform powers" like we have for players, on pets, to allow for other npc options from the zillions that would make sense. alt npc modelsssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss........*poof*


:edit: maybe the inherent could get a fix to help MM's for when pets suddenly die, or they prefer to go petless and give a little more survivability [though there's really only two sets worth going petless for anyway so this would be mostly for ppl who's pets die easy *looks at the dogs and ninjas and mercs*]

ALL OF THIS YES PLEASE

i was also hoping for a sort of feathered bikini *cringes at the word bikini*... let me finish... like how the zombie outfit is sort of a tube top and mini-shorts for all models.... but with feathers... is what i'd like.



but definitely the things mentioned in the OP. as an artist, and comparing them to already existing parts, all of that is way do-able and way over-due.

<3 to dink. you can do it!

agreed. it's nice that they put the effort into organizing it, buuutttt it would have been nicer if the actual shark attack happened like an invasion all week with the same mobs spawning like the rikti or nemesis did. xp would be nice too. lots of lusca is nice. new critters would have been nicer. utilizing the shark powers would have also been nice. idk how complicated it is to make a new critter but even adding a few water blast attacks and shark power attacks to existing critters [coralax] would have been not too hard i think...

anyway tangent. it is great of the devs to do this. specific time events dont seem to work from previous experience, a bunch of people wait around to be disappointed from their expectations that grow with waiting, and a bunch of people cant make it and miss the few rewards.


villain vs. player events are nice and the one i've ever been able to attend was a lot of fun and i hope to be a part of more. but :shrug: a little extra creativity goes a long way and you have to be careful not to over-hype some things.

there are some FANTASTIC costumes in here that i know im going to... borrow... and tweak for some of my own characters XD

wowzers.

oooh so back on topic...


sort of...

i think i read the names of the other three power pools somewhere... but i cant get confirmation as the list of those plus more was deleted, but it totes makes sense yo.

so that makes:

nature -market
bio -market
martial A -free for vip
martial C -free for vip
sorcery -market
psi meelee -market
probs nnnnatural pp -market
probs other three pp's -market

rad armor, maybe meelee too -market

maybe spine prolif?




anything else?

yay!

also, i just wanted to say Thank You JayboH, i really appreciate you taking the time to make videos for things. helps assuage my impatience when i'm at work, and is great for showing things without having to look them up in-game.

i actually wouldnt mind if there were links to videos like yours on the wiki...

OH MY GOD DINK THIS IS AWESOME

and i probably wont use many of the pieces, but i'll just MAKE some of the pieces fit.



also, y'all, they said now they were making pieces for TW first, then scaling them down for the other weapon sets, so it shouldnt be too hard to port to broadsword/axe now that it's mostly done. staff might be more complicated tho O_O so idk if we'll get one with a chainsaw.

yay!

interesting bits in the comments whelp! i dont have to wonder so much about the rest of the pools though XD

you know what would be cool?

a giant leviathan attack.

and the giant leviathan spawns a bunch of smaller invisible pets that dont die until the giant leviathan dies, with quick recharging spirit shark attacks. think carrion creepers pet, but shark version.

wooooooooooooooooo!




wonder what the invasion will be like.

yay! awesome!

ew, skulls now have that icky pocket d party pack hair? :/

yay lady skulls of death!
