Thigh high boots?



Yes please. Not to troll, not because I 'swing that way' but because my character just might.

I'd love less 'gender neutrality' and more 'free for all'

-shrug- I just handwave it in all honestly XD My Natural Dual Pistols/Traps corruptor was a pretty 'normal' character, now he can do a super kick, summon romans, and shoot up a barrier that blocks most things. Not to mention before he was an incarnate when he inexplicably gained a shadowy aura that resists damage, the ability to revive via soul sucking, and enemies near him suddenly becoming stunned from the dark shroud around him.

I've always found Epic pools to be the big point where concepts can break down honestly, and no, I'd rather break concept than gimp my character.

Burn threads for iXP, don't worry about iXP rate. With 10 threads daily you can have Judgment and interface unlocked from scratch in less than a week (3 days per slot). Which doesn't factor in drops from arc runs, or the SSA rewards.

And honestly, you're better off doing the Weekly Strike Target with someone for the Notice of the Well and build it from shards. They don't drop in DA, sure, but given the time it takes to build up 8 emps you're better having that rare for one of the other 4 drops. You can also burn astrals into shards at a 1 to 1 conversion, so 4 astrals = 1 common. Though outside of that, burn astrals into threads for iXP and components for everything else.

Wow, yeah that protect the midnight mansion mission is a pain. I did fine until the 2 elite bosses showed up and just shredded my pets and proceeded to manhandle Ward. It should really just spawn -1- EB on basic settings ;p

I'm generally enjoying Night Ward as a continuation of First Ward, just started Sir Bedwr so interested to see how the story runs. I like the Animus Arcana and the zone has some interesting flair.

I am a little sad that it lacks -any- kind of tailored content for loyalists/resistance. First Ward at least had the 'newspaper' missions. This just gives everyone Sir Lionel and Atherton Cromwell, who -really- should've been split between hero/villain, cuz Cromwell really has -no- business being a hero contact.

Prometheus also makes specific mention that the Devouring Earth are pouring up against the sonic fences and that's why we're rushing to kill Cole, before the Hamidon overwhelms the city and merges with him.

I'll be honest though, I'm a little sad to see that the Talons attack and subsequent defeat at the hands of the Carnival of Light are just summed up quickly in the first 5 seconds of teleporting into the magisterium trial, where you just get told what you missed.

It seems like that whole battle could've been it's own arc like Belladonna's.

Also, anyone else catch Aurora's new carnie outfit?

Yeah you still make half inf in supergroup mode these days. So if inf isn't a major concern but you want to design that top of the line supergroup with all the amenities, feel free.

I've got a couple solo supergroups that just over time from starting the group early have all the things I want (which is mostly a crafting table and teleporter access).

Hit 'find contact'. If it's available, it'll show up. Done.

I'd expect the zone pack to hit the market soon, possibly this tuesday

So 23 is out, 24 is probably within a month or so of hitting the beta, if not sooner.

What's everyone hoping to see in the next issue? Contentwise, I know there's more than a laundry list of bugs to be fixed.

We know that at least part of the issue will be devoted to wrapping up Praetoria and the aftermath of Cole's empire being gutted.

Personally I'm hoping for some new taskforces and a final Praetorian zone to push goldside to 50. Something to fill the 30-35 gap Redside (and thus another 30-35 TF blueside if they keep doing the 'equal additions or co-op' ideology) and a new Incarnate TF, either something in Dark Astoria or in post-Cole Praetoria. With better rewards than Tin Mage/Apex, a single astral is pretty weak ;p

Also expecting we'll be seeing Nature Affinity and Bio Armor at release.

I actually haven't had a single problem with pets getting 'stuck' at the entrance since Issue 22 dropped. Like, ever. Any time I zone, any time I trial, etc. That bug has just completely disappeared for me. I thought it'd been fixed gamewide, honestly. I've got 2 Masterminds now, an incarnate Necro/dark and a 31 Beast/time, never had a problem with the pets being stuck.

It's just easier to say the AvP movies were crap writing in all regards and ignore them.

My personal take on the canon, which is highly biased, is just Alien, Aliens, Predator, Predator 2, and Prometheus.

As far as I'm concerned, nothing happened past Aliens and there was never a movie crossing the two franchises. It's made me a happier person for it.

Actually, one thing I was always curious about is why Malta is strictly the paramilitary operation. Their whole backstory that we find out and piece together is about using supers as weapons for the good of the country, whether it's recruiting them via coercion or other nastier means. Yet the group you fight is strictly normal humans with fancy gear. I mean honestly when you hear about it, it sounds a lot like the set up from Heroes, with a Super and a Handler. But again, supers are completely absent from the in-game roster.

Because no one plays the Synapse or Lady Grey Taskforces where he actually appears.
