Honestly... I want Ice Melee and Ice Armor first... Brutes have enough AoE sets

There's something oddly calming about this...
"......Strangely Soothing...." -
I really have no problem with them charging for it, my only worry is HOW much. A 5 power Pool set should NOT cost the same as a full 9 tier powerset, especially if a lot of the powers are drawn from other sets.
I can see 400-500 points, NO more than that. -
On my Click-Mezz protection characters that is on auto (Practiced Brawler etc), on my SS characters Rage is on auto. Other than that... If I have Clarion that is usually on Auto.

Based on the "design a Powerset" workshop I was at during the Pummit yesterday and the rough powers list that we came up with for the Devs, YES! A resist set that Debuffs and has the Absorb Mechanic? Yes please...
EDIT: I'd also love to see this on Stalkers.... -
No clue.. and it's likely not much. RP it as the Radiation sickness weakening your foe's psi powers?

Radiation Armor!!!
Yesterday at the Plummit, the design a powerset panel went with Radiation Armor in a tight victory over Air Control. I believe the design we came up ended up being a mix of resistance and regen/absorb. It also had a PBAoE debuff toggle and Fallout style self-rez. In short, it sounds awesome and I can't wait to know more about it once development starts.
These are my rough notes of the 9 powers we came up with-
Rad armor-
Shield 1- SL, toxic resist
Sbield 2- fire, cold, neg resist (neg may be moved to the auto power...)
Shield 3- mez and psi resist
auto regen/end recovery
Click absorb power
Taunt aura, foe minus damage
Click foe -HP self heal
Self nuke attack
T9 meltdown mode ending with self destruct
The Click Asorb needs enemies in range I believe- and from what I remember Synapse saying, he always add a +Regen effect to the absorb mechanic because just adding HP is a bit too squishy.. IE your real HP heal faster while the absorb "shield" is getting smashed. -

Why would we limit ourselves to only one day of plotting?
There's a whole month of Anniversary to celebrate

Question is, would Mender Silos let you travel back in time and fight Lord Nemesis?
All part of Nemesis's errrr Silos's plot! -
I actually hope its NOT then.. since thats the day of the pummit!
On a good Note.... I LOVE this- I always wanted a Oro TF where you fight during Brass Monday, this will suffice for now

Saw this on the CoH Facebook thread...
http://www.onrpg.com/MMO/City-of-Her...sary-Interview
Not a lot of new info... EXCEPT THIS:
"Sure! For the 8th Anniversary we gave away the Statesman Salute rewards to pay homage to a great hero, there will also be a new invasion involving the Nemesis (itÂ’s a Nemesis Plot!) who will take over Paragon City and the Rogue Isles."
A Nemesis invasion???? Snipers everywhere, swarms of Jaegers in AP? I like! -
Well, I arrive at Norman Mineta Intnl' airport around 12:05 pm friday! Yes!!
I know I'm a bit late, is there anyone carpooling from there around that time? If not, it should be easy getting a taxi... -
Quote:The Gaseous Aura.. I believe it was one of the basic auras... its not showing in the Creator or the market on my Primary account.Originally Posted by Winterminal
Sounds like a server lag issue. Something similar happened when I released one of my names for someone else not too long ago. I deleted the toon, logged in and told the player that the name was free, and then they came back 2 minutes later saying they could not get it. Upon trying again after a few minutes, they were able to get the name.
On a side-note: what aura? The only one I know of that was once on the market but is no longer there is the bats from the Halloween pack. -
OK.. this may be long-winded so bare with me.
I've had a name reserved for a Staff character since I found out about Staves- I had the name held on my 3rd account. This morning I went and deleted the name and recreated it over on my primary account so I can get all the vet rewards I have there.
It's then I realized that I didn't have the 1 aura piece on my primary account that I do have on my 3rd account. After looking for it in the market and not finding the aura I decided just move back to my 3rd acct and be done. Thats where I ran into a issue...
I Can delete the characcter from my primary account.. but when I go back to my 3rd acct it says the name isn't available.. but it is on my primary and 2nd accounts?? Is there a timinig issue? I did this all before work this morning so I just rereserved the name on my primary account and figured I'd try this again tonight- just wondered if anyone ran into this before? -

Quote:Names of leaked powersets coming (subject to change of course)Originally Posted by MisterMagpie
Nature affinity? Water blast? Symbiotic armor?

Quote:Considering a lot of the leaked sets have a nature theme.. and I'm guessing part of I24 will deal with Praetorian Hami.. they may give either Nature Affinity or Water Blast as a free VIP set.Originally Posted by daveyj3
i feel like a free powerset will either be powerset proliferation ooorrrrrrr one of the other sets leaked. i think penny's powerset is too specific maybe, despite being highly requested, and therefore would work best if they sold it so they could make uber bank from it, which they would.
as would the blast set requested from day 1. :'( i just rolled like three characters for it to save the names i want lol.
My money is on Water Blast.. since VIPS have gotten a buff set, a control set, a assault set and a melee set... the only one left is a blast set. -
You know.. it occurred to me last night looking over the various powerset leaks...
We know that for a lot of the 'older' tech in the game like bases and mayhem missions the votes and such have been lost/incomplete and that's why the Devs are hesistant to tinker with the systems- what if the same is true of the legacy powersets?
We know that Energy Blast was at first a failed attempt at a water blast set... now we see an actual water blast set leaked. What if the Devs made the decision to use new tech/FX to.... 'recreate' failed or underperforming sets rather than take the more laborous route of reverse-engineering a set and trying to tweak it?
That would explain some of these leaks of a new shapeshifting AT.. rather than mess with Khelds too much, just do over a shapeshifting AT and do it.. rigtht this time with 7 years of knowledge on what failed? To me it's a nice solution.. gives more variety in game, keeps us rolling alts and generates more income (no way all those sets will be VIP free... maybe a few). -
Quote:Actually.. YES yes I am.. i'm also intrigued by Water Blast....Originally Posted by Rockshock
You guys happy now? Your getting your stupid Psi Melee!
The question is.. You Mad Bro? Yeah.. you mad.... -
I actually would like the ability to "open" other slots with Incarnate Merits like we can with the Alpha.
Say 2-3 Emp Merits for unlocking the non-"level shift" slots like Judgement and Interface (and I assume Hybrid). -
Quote:Makes you wonder how hard are the Battalion that we need an ability like this....Originally Posted by ClawsandEffect
Sounds like the possibility of Scourge AND Fury. Which is pretty sick.

Quote:I23 should be the final takedown of Tyrant. Also all references of States will be removed from the game, not sure about Sister.Originally Posted by ShadowMoka
Old news, but it's confirmed it's i23 by Zwill.I guess this will be the finale of Praetoria if not a new AT?
From the lil tidbits the Devs and Z have dropped in coffee talks and such heres what we should expect-
1) Tyrant Trial- most likely including Chimera as well since Dominatrix confirms Chimy is Tyrants new "gadgeteer" since AM's and Nueron's downfall.
2) At least 1 new Incarnate slot- originally they were hinting at both Genesis and Hybrid but one of the coffee chats mentioned only 1 with next trial.
3) Possible set up/arrival of Battalion scouts/vanguard troops? I expect they will jump right into the Battalion storyline with little pause.
4) Possible new Praet Zone? There have been a bunch of subtle hints about expanding. I'm wondering if They won't do a reverse of previous issues. IE- start the issue with a Trial to defeat Tyrant then have a 30-50 zone to deal with the fall out and help clean up Praetoria.
5) Shadow Shard progression? (this may be wishlisting but with the SSA 1 wrapped up I can see Vanguard starting to take a bigger interest in the Shard...)
