What if it was the other way around?

Mastermind: Man, we've gotta do something! We're getting mashed here!

Thug: Boss, I got an idea! Hand me onna those bombs!

Mastermind: What?! What're you- wait!

*BOOM!*

Well, we're just one well-played threadjack away from making this thread about makeup. Me, I'm not good at threadjacking. At least, not intentionally. So you're on your own, I guess.

Unless you're crazy about following the rules like me. So hah.

Yeah, there's absolutely no way to verify that someone's really legal age over the Internet. It is, quite literally, impossible.

Yeah, that's going in my signature.

*CTRL+C!*

"The People For the Acceptance of Involuntary Levitation gathered to protest the disqualification of gravity-distorting powers on the Ski Slope, which they claim is discriminatory. Pocket D's stance is that levitation and similar abilities make timed ski runs much easier, and are unfair to competitors who lack such powers. More at eleven."

Continuation: What.

Didn't Positron once describe it as NC rolling a wheelbarrow full of money to their offices and telling him to do whatever he wanted to City of Heroes with it?

Repetition: Apparent event: Team Rikti: Blasting off.

Agreement. Dakka required: Always more. Dakka available: Enough: Never/impossible.

Ones: Red: Relative speed: Faster. Additional improvement: Speed: Source: Stripes.

Pinstripes: Red/black: Speed increase: Exponential.

You possess: Knowledge: What you doing. Every Zig: Take off.

Confusion. Self: using: speech pattern: Rikti. Tango foxtrot: Whiskey?

It's an acronym. It means <F-bomb>ed Up Beyond All Repair. I bet that first word is why the forum censors it, although that doesn't explain why it lets "WTF" slide.

I believe you're correct here. Every Power Set has its own thing, ammo-swapping is Dual Pistols' unique ability.

For some reason, I just found this absolutely hilarious. I guess I didn't think my build was that bad.

Anyway, thanks for the advice, I'll try out your build once I get another respec.

So, now, this build is the result of 30 levels of random experimentation and no less than three respecs. I had a lot of issues with survivability for a while, before I finally ditched my travel power and Frenzy in favor of Boxing, Tough, and Weave. Now, my Crab Spider's virtually unkillable against anything below a Boss, and is only in serious danger against them if they can drain Endurance. (Curse you, Ring Mistresses! CURSE YOU!!)

That brings me to my problem: Endurance efficiency. It's, um, not good. Highly not good. She's far worse at Endurance management than any of my other SO-level characters. I'm pretty sure my Claws/Dark Armor Scrapper had better Endurance efficiency when she was on DOs. Seriously, you guys, End-crash city over here.

So, I'm asking you all for some advice. I'd like to improve my Crab Spider's Endurance efficiency. I'd like to maintain similar levels of survivability, but I can afford to make her more kill-able before we get to the point where anything can actually kill her. I haven't got a respec handy, having used up my veteran respecs, but I haven't done any of the respec trials yet, so I can go out and get one if I have to. Let's assume I can only afford SOs, I don't have the Infamy lying around to IO her out.

Her secondary build is even worse. I'm planning on making it a slot-machine build (hence naming her "Gamble Spider"), so the powers are selected based on slotting her with as many "chance for X" procs as possible, rather than anything sensible.

So, what do all of you think?

I believe there are system limitations regarding entities that copy player characters. I know that sort of thing has been shot down regarding Masterminds with duplicates of themselves as pets, but that's actual NPCs, as opposed to just power effects, so who knows?

The other issue is screen slowdown. The copies would have to be rendered like the actual character, essentially meaning that there's suddenly however-many more characters on screen, all at once, just WHAM! This could lead to issues with weaker GPUs.

I'd like to see some kind of "Portal Melee", which would actually be a ranged set, where the character would generate portals next to him/herself and the target, and then reach through those portals to punch said target. It'd probably have even worse graphical issues than BBQ_Pork's suggestion, and it'd be kind of goofy anyway, but hey, I can dream.
