  1. The Final boss at the end has an attack that uses Fire sword and Ice sword, that is so unfair I wanna dual wield elemental weapons!

    Also god help the squishies that get hit with that attack, it on my brute I don't want to think what it would do to someone without resists and a big HP pool.

    Not till I get my Zombie Lore powers.

    Also for the sword based Judgement, make it a small cone like the DP power please? Just so I can make a character that uses it and yell "Getsua Tensho!"

    Unless they modded the Crystal Titan's stuff for that one mission they can make you immune to everything at once.
  4. I am thinking another one of those powers will be a Signature character summon like say you can summon ghost widow or Drag'on in their full AV/Heroness for 5 minutes or so. which..would be awesome on an TF just to shove the full version of soul storm up the business end of whoever is in charge of the battalion.

    Omega I am guessing is going to be a moment of glory style thing where you hard cap Attack, or become completely immune to all damage for 30 seconds or so.

    Have you seen that new EULA? Wowza.
    *looks at his handle*

    Does...that count if your handle has more or less supplanted your real name?

    cause..only my mother calls me by my birthname anymore.

    Oh i know the origins...but I was gone for a year so I flubbed the meme.
  11. Things a new person to city of heroes needs to know.

    1. in most MMOs the community are a bunch of infantile jerks who care more about their epeen than the basics of civilization. City of Heroes is the exception to this that proves the rule. We are a bunch of snarky jerks who care more about seeing how many people we can murder at once before we get killed.

    2. Death is just another badge.

    3. Mastermind pets are stupid stupid kittens who WILL wander into a horrible horrible death if not watched like babies.

    4. Mastermind pets are completely expendable so #3 is not that big of a problem.

    5. Make sure to bring lots of catnip with you if you go to the pocket D on the virtue server, there are lots of catgirls there.

    6. Everybody makes a catgirl, you will too. Just nobody admits it.


    7. Kill Skullz, Run Faster and FREEM!.
  12. They have family guy on there...but no MASH?

    BJ's practical jokes alone make it more funny than the entirety of Family Guy.
  13. I am not sure what I was more surprised about. Prof X with hair, or Prof X with a sense of humor.
  14. I would change the pulses to be 25% of current HP so you can't die to a pulse after a random crit/cone/aoe that you can't avoid.
  15. I would like to say, I am fairly disappointed that Byakuya's SenbonZakura was not in it.

    It may not be the most powerful thing ever, but few things say style than turning an opponent into hamburger with a thousand little blades that glint in a way that makes them look like cherry blossoms.

    AT for an Angel

    I don't know if bs/shield//shield/bs is any good, i am just wondering which AT to go with for him.

    I normally don't ever play melee in games. I am used to the guns and the spells, but i decided it was time to pick up a new talent. I am looking for which one is better for solo. Better for teams. Survives better. Does more damage.
    I have no idea what to do when it comes to melee, so giving me ideas of which is better for what will help me decide.
    You could also wait for Titan Weapons, nothing says fear the power of god like a chick easily using a sword twice her weight.
  17. Whelp...Time Manipulation looks like it is gonna be a fairly active set, so I would rule out Corruptors and Defenders since they have blasts so having a bunch of active abilities means you got alot of things you gotta spam to be effective. So that would mean Masterminds would have some benefit from it as would earth controllers since their most powerful controls are Patches.

    Personally I would go with a Necro/Time MM or a Ninja/Time MM, your pets will be in melee so you can leverage all your powers to their best ability.
  18. I would like to put forth Roronoa Zoro as...Dual Blades/WP Brute. He doesn't particularly have any regenerative/in-vulnerabilities but every fight he is in basically tears him to shreds and he always gets back up.

    He's there with you when Ouroboros falls into the sea. He has a tense relationship with Silos (as evidenced with his discussion with Silos at the end of the Incarnate Arc). He's the ONE Mender who sends you to the future to show you at least SOMETHING of what the Coming Storm will be like. He's also the one who is giving you access to what is going to be a huge boost to your abilities, rather than putting you through a massive "troubleshooting experiment."

    Finally, you have to wonder about a Mender who takes the name "Thunder of God." Since the Menders tend to have been other people prior, and we've often wondered at the identities of the other Menders, though it seems the only one we've gotten confirmation on has been Silos/Nemesis (Ramiel hammers the last nail in that coffin). It wouldn't surprise me that Lazarus is Aeon (a Mender who has been said to take paradoxical copies of himself and fling them beyond his limits "just to see what happens?" I know somebody who both routinely makes paradoxical copies of himself AND does experiments just to see what happens!), and Tesseract is Silver Mantis (under her heel, indeed; she's even got that same intense glare Silver Mantis has). Just about the only one we don't really know is Twilight's Son (Yeah yeah, ha ha, the son of Twilight; funny, but has anybody met Twilight? Maybe we should focus on who in the game universe would be willing to sell out a whole lot of people to save his own skin).

    It would be simply awful if the Letter Writer was some character who wasn't in the game until the reveal. It would be far more interesting if the Writer were somebody who was already in the game when they introduced the Menders, Ouroboros and the Letters.

    Claiming that it's the Center or Requiem or a dozen other characters is interesting and all... But they just don't seem terribly interested. Requiem is obsessed with conquering the world. The Center is apparently obsessed with the same, only with him at the reigns, nobody else... In the end, the interested parties (and those who would know the most about them) are the Menders themselves. The Letter Writer knows deep, dark and intimate details about the Menders, and who else would know these things... But another Mender?
    I don't think you should take twilight's son's name so literally. Requiem/Romulus' Nictus half is named "Dirge of Entropy." So My guess is that Twilight's Son doesn't mean that his parent's were named twilight. More that he was born in the last days of the Kheldian race.

The only time travellers aside from Ourobors that I know of are Arachnons, and they're using a "Stargate."

    If the Midnighters' did have access to time travel in some way, then the game should have set this up. I'm not saying it's not possible, just that it would be completely out of left field and not very good storytelling. This is more of a meta argument, but still.
    The thing is, If I recall correctly isn't it said somewhere in Ouroboros or by the LW himself that there are 11 different methods of time travel? If there are that many I am willing to be atleast one is magical in nature.

    Our Hamidon is more or less a mindless mass off Goo, Imagine if all that power were backed by something intelligent enough to pull the Goo Pile into something more mobile faster and more focused so that instead of having all that power spread across the adds you have it all in one body.
