  1. Hi Scarlet,

    I have the same issue with melee. I have and always loved ranged ATs, but mostly Dominators. I tend to always be on melee wih my dom and that's my favorite place, melee.. The fact that I can hold the aggro by myself and survive is my favorite thing! It's been 7 years of not touching Brutes, Tankers, Scrappers etc.. I do have a stalker for PvP though but it's a spine.

    Recently I rolled a Kinetic Melee/Energy Aura Scrapper, and I'm kinda enjoying it! I tend to "Herd" the whole room or map and stay in one place and kill everything, without chasing a thing. With the new buff Energy Aura got, I can taunt things without Taunt. I'm now at lvl 42, a bar away to 43!

    Electric Aura has a taunt aura too and some other sets. I think they buffed Fiery Aura so the NPC's don't run away. Not sure about Stone Armor, but I've seen lots of those herd things.

    Taunt is very good too, to keep things on melee range. I don't usually take it, except for my MM. But it's very very useful for Brutes To keep Fury up.

    But yeah, it takes a little bit of effort to play melee, it's totally up to you. Pick something that can get you survive through all those herding. Again that's probably just my taste, I hope this helps you on your decision.

    Eh, just make PSW wide again... Psionic attacks shouldn't have any range, it's mental it can reach the farthest opponent!!! There are no limits! >:-)
  3. Amazing! Great work GG!

    I fell off my chair when I saw what they were reading on the table! <3<3<3

    the upcoming changes to mercy story arcs in i21 are fantastic, makes me feel more like a villain than the old content did
    I agree. Blue side is so gray... zzzzz

    Surprisingly, if you will just stop and look around anywhere red side, it has more depth. The details and story behind the Isles. I like that Rogue Isles has fewer zones, less confusing and easy travel. I think I only have 1 hero, and never logged it in. The only blue zone I like is Croatoa, which should be a co-op zone.

    Edit: May I add that, how the lighting in red side is what makes people hate it. It has nothing to do with the design. It's not perfect but it's better than blue side... For me anyway.
  5. Thanks Basilisk!

    I tried to do the manual way, and it didn't work. Not sure what I did wrong, hmmm...
  6. How do you change the font settings/style anyway?

    The barbarian stuff looks good, except for those thigh-highs. I hope that those are not the only new boot choice. Red Sonja wouldn't be caught dead in those. The White Queen might wear them but she's about the furthest thing from a barbarian.

    At least it's not Yet Another Suit of Armor.

    Sex appeal. Check!
    Pointy toes. Check!
    Fur. Check!
    Silhouette. Check!
    Thigh Highs. Check!
    New Skirt. Check!
    New Top. Check!

    I'm ready to make my Christmas outfits and beyond!

  8. Hi Obsidian Light!

    Yes, it's Red side. PMing you now!
  9. Hello Everyone!

    As you may know there's a fashion show in Virtue on August 15, 2011 and you are all invited. But the reason why I'm posting here is because I need 5 more female Fashion Models, who are willing to wear 3 outfits that I have put together (downloadable). Anyone who is willing to do that and not edit a thing would be awesome!

    If you can make it tonight to our rehearsal at 8:00 PM EST please sign up right now and reply to this thread or send me tell in-game at: @Antoinette (I'll be online today all day!)

    Upon signing up you are agreeing to join the rehearsal tonight 8:00 PM EST and making it on time on August 15, 2011, 9:00 PM the main show.

    Leave your global name and character name. Booster Packs preferred.

    Global:
    Character Name:
    3 Costume slots: [YES][NO]
    Booster Packs:


    Thank you Virtue, I hope many of you are interested.
  10. I vote for the Rularrus, awesome costume and concept, you know already they are some kind of powerful beings.

Looking at the pictures again, there doesn't seem to be anything under the hair/down texture, and you can see some bits of skin here and there. This makes it look like the costume is part of her, as opposed to just being a costume.

    So, I suggest making a slightly darker, solid colored swimsuit underneath first, and then drawing the texture on top. That would give a better representation that this is supposed to be a suit and not some really bad hair condition, I think.
    Oh I'm so sorry if I was not clear, I mentioned on my earlier post that my photoshop skills are not that good. I did this in like 1 minute to show the concept I have in mind. Thank you so much for the feedback, I appologize if it looks aweful, again nothing final on these just concept.

  13. Ok tweaked some more stuff for a very stylish option. On the lower part, the first pic is regular cut, it's traditional panty, and the second one is called Boy Cut, because it's almost like shorts.

    And I think those p'shoppin' skills are pretty solid. Nice job.
    Hahah thanks.. I forgot to add I made her hair black, not sure if that's good, it set's her whole outfit in neutral. Like an American Indian theme only pale skinned.
  15. This is my take on Swan. Photoshop is so bad, but I hope you guys get the idea. I'm so so sorry if it's a bad edit.

    Changes:

    Makeup
    Skin Tone
    Clothes

    Hope you continue making these, they're another one of the community highlights!
    I'll try to do something, I might put up a sound option in the the wix.com (flash version) sometime this week.

    Yeah, how does she do that "fashionably rolling on floor" thing? Something in the middle of the ghoul death emote or what?
    Yes it's from /em tantrum. Every pose I used are from other emotes.

    Great as always! I just hope I remember about the fashion show.
    Hahah, before I forget, I would like to invite everyone to join us on August 15, 2011 in Port Oakes, 9 PM - 11 PM EST. I will showcase all the outfits I created from Issue 1 - 4. We have been preparing and rehearsing for this project. We hope you make it to the fashion show and have fun.

    Hero Dawn will have a costume contest after the fashion show. Lots of prizes and I might give away 1 Ring Mistress Costume code to a lucky player/winner. Please bring your /em camera and take photos of the events and send me the pics!

    Thanks again for the positive feedback, I hope you guys love Issue 4. *bites nails*
