Make this global? Put it in Hurricane or Gale?

I find your lack of imagination....disturbing

Seriously, KB in pets or in radial KB powers is bad. KB in linear powers or in powers that you can control the location of, like Hurricane, is wonderful!!

You can control where the mobs are with the skillful use of KB, why in the world would you want to turn that off?

And people wonder why I refuse to PUG any more.

I'm going to add my No vote in here as well.

With the convenience of the /ah command I'm finally starting to use the market on a semi regular basis. I'm far from being wealthy in CoH (most loaded character has under 400k, 2nd most loaded around 300k, no one else worth talking about) and don't need to be nickled and dimed to death.

As for public gathering places, what's wrong with Pocket D? We don't need to gather at the AH in person for the convenience of the spammers.

Hawks (and other raptors) don't peck, they rake.

Sorry, that irritates me in the Beast Mastery set and you got the spill over here.

Nice looking set other than that.

They don't need more crap on the PM, they need to FIX a bunch of stuff that's already out there.

*Cough*MM Hench AI*Cough*

...among others

Signed!

Wow, so much logic fail in this post, where do I even being dissecting your errors.

Despite all the KB resistance in the world on my MM, my pets fly like chaff driven by the wind at the first hint of KD/KB from any source.

Imagine the howls if a Scrapper or Brute were standing solid on a Ice Slick, but couldn't attack because their attack powers were flopping like fish.... I do believe those subforums would spontaneously combust from the rage.

Has anyone PM'd the Powers lead (Arbiter Hawk?) on this thread?

Oh, and a couple of things on the list have been fixed. I'll try to quote them from the OP tonight so you can update.

But the AI is the big booger as far as I'm concerned. Well that and the pet non-responsiveness bug.

Thank you!

Insects.

T1
Giant Spiders, 3rd spider gets a venomous bite. All get Web attack (Immob)

T2
Giant Beetles. Get one Bombardier Beetle (PBAoE fireball) and one Stink Bug (PBAoE toxic) among other attacks.

T3
Would you like to see a 7' tall Preying Mantis? Neither would I. In addition to a 6' range Impale it would get Fearsome Stare.

I can (and have in the past) detail it out more, but that's the bare bones of it.

So I've dusted off my Bot/Trap MM and IO'd him out. Overall I'm pretty pleased, but have run into some serious design flaws in the AT and I'd like to bring those to light. Hopefully, now that Stalkers are fixed, we can get some love over here.

And if it seems that I am taking a hard line on some of this stuff, remember this. People pay a stiff premium to play this AT if they didn't already have it unlocked before Freedom. People love pet classes, and if they pay that premium they are going to feel cheated with all these issues.

I have a KB protection proc slotted (Karma or Steadfast, I forget) so I don't have any issues with KB/KD, but my henchmen act like popcorn if you drop an Ice Slick under them. What would a Scrapper say if he remained standing but couldn't attack because of KB/KD?

I constantly outrun my HP (I move much faster than my henchmen). No biggie when soloing, but on a team that moves as fast as I do (that's most all of them that I get on) it's a pain.

Procs and set boni do not affect the henchmen. What would a Brute say if he made a half a billion Inf build for damage, only to find that it didn't affect all his attack powers, just the weakest ones?

Henchmen should never leave Supremacy radius when on Defensive. If you can't write AI any better than you already have, this is the fix.

Henchmen who heal or ST buff should target their Master first (if they want to live! Muahahahaha!) Pro Bots, I'm looking at you and thinking about the cost of spare parts for the others.

Then there's the non-responsive Henchmen bug. I am unable to dismiss them, even by the command line. Again, what would a Brute say if all their strong attacks (and 2/3 their HP) just randomly stopped working? Yeah, and zoning MIGHT fix it.... Or not.

Ranged Henchmen should NEVER move INTO melee range, period. Melee attacks should be used defensively only, and all melee attacks on ranged Henchmen should have a healthy KB component to get the mob away from them.

And on a related note, please fix Group Fly. I respec'd out of it because I was tired of stopping every 50 yds to let the Henchmen catch up. My recommendation for Group Fly (if possible) is that you kill the AoE. Anyone who targets the caster should fly as long as they remain within 200 yds (or make it 100 if 200 is too much) of the caster. In addition to that, they should fly 20 mph FASTER than the caster so that they can stay within that distance easily. Then you can remove the Group Fly conversation from Null the Gull because it won't be an issue any more.

And what exactly is the difference between that and a proc that is part of a set? You slot an LotG 7.5% recharge bonus, and nothing else from the set in several powers when building perma Domination.

You slot a Miracle or a Numina's +Recovery proc (or both) in Health and go on your way without the rest of either set.

So what are you asking for that we don't already have the ability to do?

And why not just make additional sets with procs in them to meet your need?
