  1. Looking at those pictures makes me realize just what a dive Pocket D is.

    Spelling fixt.

    And it's not about the midriff. It's about the bikini bottom being so out of place color-wise when you have a midriff. If you noticed, two of my example recolorings kept the midriff. Nobody is against a bare belly. They're against a bare belly *for that outfit*.

    As is, a bright red zippered bikini over a bright white tights and a bare belly is problematic not because it's slutty, it's a problem because it's a fashion disaster.
  4. Why are the staff of the VIP Beta server fighting?

    15.9% "Split" IOs + 5x Boosters = 19.9%
    12.8% "Triple" IOs + 5x Boosters = 15.9%

    Here's the basics. Overall, adding +5 boosters onto an IO will essentially turn it into a "purple" version of the same. I'll post some information on the exact numbers of boosted purples when I get a chance, but this should cover most folk's questions.
    Or, just check out the link above for this same info.

    That's just poor Photoshopping on my part. While black would make them less noticeable, they'd still be seen much more readily in-game on a shiny-textured leather-like tights.


    Edit: Oathbound called it!

    VIP Gold Card...

    Yeah, it's an unfortunate double use of 'VIP'. The exclusive section of Pocket D was named a 'VIP' club in-game long before FREEDOM's use of 'VIP' to mean subscriber. They're two different things.

    Your base is more convenient than a crafting table in AP because there are no Lost in AP. So, you *must* leave AP to cure the Lost. The question is: where is a convenient crafting table on the way to the Lost?

    Answer: Your base.

    TP to your base, craft, then use a telepad to Faultline and there are Lost within 100 yards of you.
  10. So, we all know that Blue Steel's shield and Hero 1's cape are costume items in the Devs' character creator tool. We know that because sometimes these locked-away pieces leak on Test/Beta or even Live. And we know that Devs have decided to not let such signature pieces be used by players in the Live environment.

    But how about in the Mission Architect? What if I wanted to create the Blue Steel army? Or have multiple Hero 1 dopplegangers from different dimensions? With those pieces locked away in the Dev toolkit, I can't. But if the AE character creator was a clone of the Dev's character creator, I could!

    So, release the Dev CC to AE!

    Please.
  11. And the zipper on the bikini.... just doesn't look right. It would look right if there wasn't the bare midriff and the zipper was continuous down from the neckline.
  12. Weren't they strospective enough the first time?
  13. Yeah, I"m on the side of 'too busy' for Penny's costume. As well as struck by how the outfit screams "LOOK AT THE BIKINI... IT STANDS OUT AND SHOUTS 'HERE I AM' AT YOU!!!!'

    Basically, it just needs color reassignment to make the bikini 'fit' and not 'jump out.' It can be done in lots of ways, some suggestions:

  14. Manticore, Swan, Infernal, and Psyche are missing.

    Come back tanstaafl!

    Coyote travels stats are pretty much identical to Beast/Ninja Run + Sprint + Swift (with 50 Run SOs). It is not slower. It has other deficits, but it is not slower.

    Penny already had a red and white color scheme.
  17. The way the coyote presents itself is a hot topic.

    When Psyche's mind was trapped outside her body, Aurora let Psyche share her body for a while (this happened way before the SSA timeline). When Psyche was able to return to her own body, she psychically separated from Aurora... almost. Part of Aurora's 'psyche' was left behind in Psyche's psyche. So, Psyche walled off that vestigial part of Aurora within her mind. However, it seems that vestigial part had a mind of it's own and always threatened to break free and make Psyche psycho.

    Malaise knew of that part of Psyche wanting to break free and take over and teamed up with it. The real Aurora got into Psyche's mind to help her fight the vestigial Aurora.
  19. "Another surprise."

    Ummm... don't you mean "another shocking development" since the first one wasn't a surprise because you announced it was going to happen?

  21. You should definitely build for debt protection for your Blaster. Especially if you have ever typed the phrase, "hey, watch this".
  22. Ill/Dark means not dying while your PA is down.

    Am I missing something obvious in the fight here, or am I supposed to bring help?
    They're just plain old EBs (unless you got difficulty up). The problem is that they're two EB fights in a row which cuts into inspirations and getting the second one properly debuffed in time to survive.

    Just make sure you have half Defense and half Damage in your insp tray (and two break frees just in case). Or, bring a Vanguard HVAS or a Shivan with you.
