Add Renewal of Light as a Permanent Power


BrandX

 

Posted

So I know the Winter Event is slowly coming to a close this year. In doing so, I will miss the self-rez power that I picked-up called Renewal of Light. What I really loved about this power was the effects that happen. You rise up with angle wings, it blasts all nearby foes back and, I am not so sure it will plant an ice patch below you as I did this last night and got a giant ice patch after my rez. Not sure if one of my teammates thew that down just as I was rezing? Heck, if it was my teammates ice patch, why not add that in in addition to the knockback you get after rezing? I will also say make it give you "full" health instead of half of your hit points and endurance. That way you can go back into battle at full-bore. What do you guys think?

When you say "Permanent Power", what do you mean? A crafted power via Invention Recipe & Salvage? Part of a Booster Pack?

Personally, I think it would be overpowered to give every character a self rez they can have all the time, especially one that rezzed one to full health as suggested. Certain ATs have self rezzes; others have Rez Other. There's a reason why this is a temp power - making it a permanent addition to all characters would reduce the usefulness of certain ATs, and cause certain powers to become "skippable" altogether. After all, why take Stygian Return, for example, when you have Renewal of Light?

It would only replace the current self-rez powers that are there and not be for everyone. This big thing I liked about this one was the angel wings you see when rezing. Maybe just add that graphic as a "new" graphic to the current self-rez'es that are out there?

I find this comical, are you aware OP what power this is a copy cat of? If not it's RoTP from fire armor set the only difference is the temp does cold damage and the one in fire armor set does you guessed it fire damage.

I find this most unlkely to happen.

Just to be slightly more clear, OP, yes they have added the graphic to a current self-rez. Pick up Rise of the Phoenix on a Brute, Tanker, Scrapper or Blaster-via-epic-pool and that wing rez animation is in your lap without ever expiring.

It even comes with a special 'untouchable' status for 10sec where you cannot be harmed afterwards. You can even color it to whatever you want (except Blasters because we can't customize pool powers yet), so if the white wings or the orangy-red wings don't match your costume/concept, you can make them purple wings or green!

Obtuse. And with the 'full Health and Endurance' let's add access to an 'I Win' button just for kicks, eh?

I don't recall RoTP's wing animation looking like the Angelic wings of Renewal of Light.

And I agree. I love the effect of it. It should be given as an option to all Ice Sets, if not a new set that could possibly use it.

RotP is great too though Don't get me wrong.

Would those wings be a cubist's nightmare or a cubist's wet dream?
