That is the best thing I have read on the boards in a while. I may have to go watch the recording now.

And Sticks. Other than time, the old excuses flew out the window when Staff was added and it had plain a staff, and a staff with a blade on it. The old argument was that the damage type didn't fit, that seems a bad reason not to include a weapon model in the current game.

Bolded just in case they didn't get it.

Also welcome.

Personally I think all of the PB melee powers should be KD instead of KB. I have no issue with the blasts, but I want to melee with my PB which is why I went Human Form in this build.

It was just an issue of grabbing them at the trainer. I respeced to get my 3 extra slots during that beta, and I didn't lose a single IO. Which reminds me that it didn't always happen, it just could happen.

There was also a bug where it could stop you from leveling at all if you were over 30 and didn't have the slots.

In the end it was felt that it was ing poor quality to force every character over lvl 30 to do a respec before they could move forward in the game. So, another method was being looked for to give us those extra three slots.

Adding them to lvl 50 is just one suggestion. Another would be to give +1 slot for every incarnate power that gives a level shift. We may lose the level shift outside of incarnate content, but those slots would still be useful.

Synapse was very clear that he wanted us to have those extra slots. I would not be surprised if he finds a way to get them to us at some point.

I call BS on that one. Not BS that he said it, because I saw him say the same several times. I say BS because we BEGGED for the cone in KM to be changed to KD in Kinetic Melee and he flat refused and balance was his whole argument. Because of this, the power sucks and I rarely see a KM build that has it.

I find that to be BS because Incarnate powers can be customized. I really don't see how working pools in would be any different.

With the scrapper ATIO set PS is up a LOT though. Km and StJ would be the two primaries I would suggest. Then of course you are going to get a lot of mileage out shield for the +dmg it offers, EA offers +Rech which is really nice. The problem I have found with scrappers and fire is that every thing runs from burn.

Elec armor is a good pick because it has some of the same tools as EA, but again it lacks a taunt aure, same problem with the damage aura in DA.

Shield and EA both have a taunt aura, so they would be my picks to keep things near to you to fight. I hate to say it, but if you want straight up ST damage, look at the stalker these days. They however are still not as survivable in a lot of situations.

Not to look crazy or anything, I kind of agree. Titan Weapons is a better version of Super Strength imo.

I have had this same concern for a while now. It is one of those things I REALLY hope I am wrong about.

I think they should just give 6 slots instead of 3 at lvl 50. It would also add some up to hitting 50.

I agree with this post. I have 2 dogs an Alaskan Mau and a Siberian Husky. Both are beautiful and cute, till a stranger comes near a member for the pack, our children in particular. Then the cute gets put on a shelf, and the clear ability and intent to do damage comes out. Sibs are about as close to wolf as you can get in a domestic brees, in fact mine looks a lot like the head from the animal pack.

Cute can change to horror real fast with animals.

Funny thing is that the Praetorian Police have something that would work great for this. But that is thier thing, so I doubt we ever get it.

Fair enough in that statement. It was a bit of a shock to see Black Scorpion added to the list that already had Noble Savage on it though.

I know it is not the same thing as what cryptic did, but as you put it before we had developed relationships with some those who have now moved to the other project. It is also hard to assume that their replacements are going to do as well as they did, or have as large a presence in the community.

An example would be BABs no longer being here. He was a big part of the community as a red name. Who is the current lead animator? That is kind of what I mean.

Do you know why us long time vets are concerned about it? Because CoH has been put in maintenance mode before. It was left with a 15 person crew when Cryptic decided it was going to put "other coals in the fire" and we have legitimate fear of that happening again.

As we see those leave that we have come to respect, and who we know did great things for the game, I feel we are valid in our concerns over who is leaving.

I think you are in the same place that I am. Which is a place of burnout and dissatisfaction. As I said in another post, costume wise there is not much that I know about that excites me.

I am not a fan of Retro Sci-Fi, and it really not something I would have voted for. I think the Bubble Helmet is pretty cool, but what can be used with it is really limited. The only thing from that pack I find cool is the rocket packs, which I plan to use as on every character I have which is of Natural origin and that I want to fly.

The Mecha set is flat out amazing though. The only issue I have with it is that yet again they have taken some of the best parts (the Helmet Parts) and made them exclusive to one selection (full helmets) which means what can be combined with them is REALLY limited. I and others have requested repeatedly that those options be shared with half helmets, but no one has answered us.

Sorry Arbiter Fab, but I felt that there were enough options in the game that would cover PA already. It is one of my favorite themes in moves and books, but like I said, I think we have it already.

Cyber Punk actually looks cool, and I am excited to see more of it. I really hope it is on the marketing schedule for more reveals soon. It has a lot of potential depending on the artist. The only issue I have with it is my fear of exclusive locations again. I really want to use Robes and Jackets with the current cyborg arms. I hope they find a way to let me do that with the cyborg pack.

Space pirates. I am not a big pirate fan, my main hope for this set is that it has sashes for males in it. That alone would have me buying a ton of Super booster 2. But I will do that any way, as I love the booster packs in general.

There are some great requests in this thread, but because of my current level of burnout I fear we may never see them. Having them acknowledged would be cool though.

Costumes and Power sets are the things that have revitalized this game for me over and over. I took a long break when issue 14 was released, it was issue 16 that really stoked my fire for this game again. I hope Dink pokes in again soon to let us know what she likes that we have suggested.

Wiat! BS was moved to the new project also?

I am not so sure, but only because it would then be harder to decide what powers to skip.

No as it is its own set. Just like the plan is when the next set of ATIOs are released they currently plan for us to be able to use them with the current ATIOs.

Also, yeah, with perma-LF I didn't really need to slot -KB. I played it on beta an hour or so over the weekend, and yesterday. It works out fine, even if I forget to hit hasten it fires on time. With Hasten it overlaps a bit. I did all of my testing in DA.

Few pages backs, I already suggested more of them.

I am sure some jerk is going to suggest it or offer it. It is just one more tool for people to use while complaining...so. Those people were already complaining and being jerks about KB. I was excited for my own PERSONAL use of this IO. Because as I primarily play melee toons, I hate chasing my own mobs all over the map.

There is no way on earth I am offering to give something like this away, unless it is to help a friend who is looking for one. If some one does offer you one, take it. Then promptly mail it to me.
