    Poppycock. Hero-hero smackdowns happen all the time!
  2. I want a permatemp version of the Vial of Bees power SO BAD.
  3. Ivory-brass towers on floating islands with waterfalls plunging into an endless ocean, steampunky time travel, and an asteroid carrying alien life heralding the end of the world? This is BEGGING for some Chrono Trigger.

    Okay, that seven-of-diamonds chest emblem is simply brilliant.
  5. Disregard this post, I thought I was in a different forum again.

    PPPs and respecs

    Can you choose a different Patron Power Pool during a respec, if you already have one? I'm not sure if I want Soul Mastery or Mu Mastery on my corruptor, and I'm really hoping that if one turns out to be awful then I can go back and pick the other.
  7. What? Damn it, I did it again... sorry, I'm a real airhead sometimes. Can a mod move this?
  8. I am currently deep in a Nemesis plot, deeper than I've ever been before. Specifically, I'm doing Technician Naylor's "Automatic Villainy" arc, on my Corruptor, who is a Mender. I've been laughing about it the whole time.


    How deep into a Nemesis plot have all you gotten?

    Oh hey, I'm on Triumph too! So glad to see someone who actually plays there, place is a ghost town these days...

    So does mine. Capes, too, on her secondary and tertiary costumes. Here's hoping...
  11. Finished! And thanks, VexXxa <3

    Time Control

    If this happens, I will have to reroll my defender as a troller/heroic dom. Probably the later, for the possibility of jigowatts.
  14. Normally, about 2x the size I want to display it as on the web, since I don't print much... but I almost always regret it later and wish I'd worked bigger.
  15. Rushmore is a stone tank, right? Please tell me he's a stone tank.
  16. You mention the Knives for Ninjas but not Tsoo? Curious - what would a Knives Oni look like?
  17. No, I only meant it cosmetically, it wouldn't change the mechanics of the pets themselves. The "Council bots" pet set would function identically to the existing robots, they would only look like Council bots. THe same goes for all the rest of them.
  18. I suggested this a while ago, with the idea that the existing enemy type pets (Council bots, Vazh zombies, Tsoo, etc) would be unlockable via defeat badges. It totally makes sense, too - beat up enough of 'em and you earn their respect/fear, so they work for you!
  19. Given that you can save costumes as .costume files, there is no reason you can't do this already:

    1. Make the costume and save it.
    2. Sign up for some kind of free web hosting. It's everywhere, and you don't even need a lot of space since .costume files are so small.
    3. Upload your .costume files to this web space for people to grab. Don't forget screencaps, so people know what they're getting.

    All the downloader would need to do is place the downloaded .costume files into the correct folder in their City of Heroes directory, then they could load it up just like a costume they'd saved themselves previously. Heck, if you're really tech-savvy, you could even package them as self-extracting .exe files, so the downloader wouldn't even have to know where to put them.

    I know, this doesn't include the "paying for the costumes" that your idea involved, but since it's already possible to do for free, nobody will pay anyway.
  20. I just wrote keybinds that let me press Y and N to accept/reject dialogue boxes. That makes 'em go away in half a second, with no slow mouse moving to hit the button... multi-purpose, too; if someone's trying to teleport me and I'm almost done killing something it makes it easier there too.
  21. Wait, crap, my ticket is for Sunday D:

    Noooooooooooooo!
  22. Zenith Fighter X! Linked in order to not stretch the page.


    She has a red-bladed Vanguard sword and a red energy shield, if it matters.
  23. Okay, that settles it. I'm going.
