Especially given the characters can't be used in game, searching for a page only for it to not come up due to the 'special' character being in it is kinda frustrating.

Around C5
Fire stalked the forests, and the Nightwalker stalked alongside it, hiding in the inner-dark behind and around the flames, moving steadily towards the mountain.
"Resourceful...Intruiging, intelligent and resourceful. Most promising," he mused quietly, stray whisps of life essence from charred wildlife syphoning into the darker shadow of his current form. -
Quote:"Find Miss Tomb, and by dint of that find everyone else on this rock," Leon said quietly, heading after the giant mech-like creature. "We settle a few little bits of business and then I, for one, am quite ready for home, a glass of something strong, a warm bath and a good book," he added with a chuckle. Lawrence merely rolled his eyes, Maria glancing behind them as they moved on.Sector D5
Within the Mine
MOVE YES
WHAT GOAL?
After etching those last letters into the rock, Vyachslav set himself into motion down the tunnel and toward the elevator again, mindful of those about him, as he expected them to do the same, judging from Emerald's words...
Leon nodded minutely. He could feel others moving up behind them as well. -
I'm with Floaty on this.
And I remember the redirecting to a redirecting page problem last time....when, irrc, you screwed up a metric crapton of pages. Other peoples pages, might I add.
Edit: Nice to see that, while still not quite perfect, the new format makes the Power bars in the CD-Oreso charbox line up much better with the numbers in IE. Good stuff. -
/Unsigned, for already stated reasons.

Ha! Armstrong; doing it right

Your allowed to sparkle when your nearly seven foot tall and built like a brick sh*t house, capable of punching holes in walls

Quote:Nah, the Primepalm was an accurate expression of the stage the thread was at at the timeSo your stance is that an advantage/disadvantage system is an unrealistic expectation in this game rather than the merits of such a hypothetical game addition?
Funny how a picture of Optimus Prime does *not* express that accurately >_>
Trust me, I save my pics for when I think they are actually worthy of the thread.
Otherwise I'd never stop posting them, this being the internet and all

Is Eu Test down now? Or has my update borked out slightly?
I get 'No response from this server' when trying to log in... -
Not sure about the US side, but the EU forum login just broke for a good long while.
Told me the password was incorrect, despite the fact I was logged in-game with the exact same details.
Finally working now, so just giving a heads up that something is going screwy. -
Quote:Unless people are willing to book a flight over to blighty just to see my expression in person as to how dumb I think an idea is, then they and others are simply going to have to suffer the facepalms. It's self inflicted, maybe it'll learn themI so hate internet memes. They start out kind of funny or possibly even clever but goes further and further into the annoying territory the more often they're used. And don't get me started on people that leak this BS into normal speech. Oh man, when people *say* facepalm or 'pwned' it's enough to make me want to resort to violence. Uhg...

Basically put, there already are weaknesses built into each AT and set. Asking for the level of special snowflakeness that is being suggested in this thread is, pure and simply, unrealistic. -
I mean, you've known me on SH102 how long now?
Heh, don't sweat it man.

C4
Fire in the sky. Not a sight he had witnessed for a long time. The shadowy mass that was Nightwalker coiled to the top of a tree to get a better view, watching calmly for a while.
Interesting. Perhaps it was time to keep closer to the humans and the other unsavouries that were crawling all over the island. Whatever happened, he had to be nearby when they found Tomb. The girl had...potential. And he needed that.
Steadily the cloud became translucent, fading into little more than the ghost of a shadow, the most noticeable point being the two abyssal eyes that still stared from the vague shape of a head, unblinking. Silently but swiftly he moved, pressing slightly closer in towards the mountain and the clusters of essence he could sense ahead...

Damn...
Why they cut that is a mystery. Really should be put back in, IMO. -
Quote:I really can get behind this idea. I have a handful of characters that are either based on or inspired by in game villain groups and now I know there's a Rikti costume code too, I'm positively drooling at the thoughts of making a simarly themed character. So, in case I'm not clear, this is a big YES from me.

Quote:*whud*i like all this chatter.
fact: currently the t1 secondary that we may or may not want or is good or not good is a forced power. no option at all. none. yeah sure we can take slots out later but we are still stuck with that power. bad design.
fact: i have to wait 41 levels on many toons to get epp or ppp armors and i have to take crappy boxing or kick first to get something that resembles armor. why would i want kick or boxing when i have a whole primary or secondary or both with attacks? boxing and kick are melee attacks mind you which is really great for a squishy with no substantial armor until 41 lol but i must take one of them to get pitiful but better than nothing armor. bad design.
what should be done: make power choices more flexible or change/revamp all t1 secondary powers to be more useful compared or yeah lock in some slots or put in something more useful into the fighting pool besides boxing and kick. i really don't care, just do something about these bad designs.

You hear that?

That is the sound-

-repeatedly, at the sheer level of fail in this post.
*whud*
The pools are designed that way for a reason. Your taking fighting pool on an AT with armour already; thats fine. Your also accepting your making sacrifices to get even more protection. If your on a squishy, your making sacrifices to get armour on an AT designed without protection in mind.
Pool and APPs aren't meant to completely erase every weakness in an ATs build.
Now, Stamina taking three power picks and unlocking at 20 despite being near as damnit mandatory for most players who didn't have pat down build planning, specific playstyle or IOs and certain sets? THAT was bad design, one which has finally been corrected. This? No, not really. You just can't have your flawless Character. Sorry, not going to happen. -
Quote:And thats just so much bull crap its unbelievable.I know, but I kind of feel that if you want to play a member of a canon group like that, you should have to work for it, a la epic archetypes. Still not fighting against what everyone else wants though, just stating my reasons for what I said.
It just...seriously? Do I have to even explain this? No. Just no. -
Quote:Christ, dude, no need to take offense when theres none intended. I've only been posting when I've had time to break from Uni which, undestandably, is taking up quite a fair chunk of my time.Okay Techbot, what gives? I get that your characters are supposed to be vampires and all noble and aloof and stuff, so if they don't want to interact with Big V, that's fine. But you could at least have them not blatantly ignoring him. That's just plain rude.
Also, I obviously read one of your posts wrong in thinking that V was trying to evade them/be unnoticed.
Just...it's late, Im tired, I'll check back when its not half 2 in the mornign, aight? -

Maria looked up and swore, before simply bolting for the mine entrance.
"Whatever crazy plans you've got, count me out," she shouted, before phasing through the rubble like the other two before her.
Inside, Lawrence staggered slightly as they floor and walls shook. Leon looked around, balance seemingly unaffected, although his expression showed the rising concern he had not voiced yet.
They heard rapid footsteps and turned, Maria hurtling towards them like a bat out of hell, especially appropriate given the billowing of her black trench coat.
"This thing is, according to the explosion outside, a now active volcano," she shouted as she drew level with them. "If we're going to make a move, might I heavily suggest it's right freaking now?"
The three paused for a moment, suddenly noticing the giant, dragon-like creature that ambled past and over them, headed deeper down the tunnels.
"...Interesting," Leon said at last, with a wry little smile. "Still, we've got unfinished business. And, while getting snuffed out by lava is a painful and time-consuming pain in the metaphorical neck for us, I think it might be a tad more long lasting for you, m'dear," he added to Emerald. "If you want to stick around, I for one can't stop you...but we had best hurry if that's the case." -
Maria wouldn't be known to them. Nor would Lawrence. Leon is the only one who would have any information stored anywhere, due both to his cropping up on the British side near the end of WW2 and his more recent appearance in Paragon.
Maria and Lawrence, meanwhile, have kept their heads down throughout history, doing their own things and dealing with anyone who tried to cross them in their own personal ways.
Obviously a vampire, yes. Known, no. -

Quote:Syndicate can already be made in-game as it is, more so than pretty much any other enemy group. They are also the most boring.To get back to the topic of PRAETORIAN Epics before it was derailed.
Considering an AT with an Assault/Armor set as the Primary/Secondary has been suggested before, I think it would work well for a Syndicate AT, their SMG/DB combo attack set would work well for an Assault set, and they could even branch out into a Melee Oriented Sword Master or a Control Oriented Telekineticest
That, and any future Assault/Armour AT should most certainly not be as concept locked as an EAT. Being able to make a Fire Assault/Fire armour character, or Energy Assault/Invul, or a whole ATs worth of combos would be much, much more fun.
T'be honest, I don't see any of the current Praetorian stuff working much, except maybe some of the Clockwork variants. Maybe.
Then again, my views on what should, IMO, be the next EAT are already well known, and im sticking to them. -
