    This is why I do not participate in these events. In order to get a straight answer out of the developers on anything in a social event like this, would require several hundred people asking the exact same question. Even then some random person comes in and asks about the next booster pack and that will be the one question they answer. Even if It is surrounded on each side by 50 questions about PVP.

    Very well if you really want to know I have never had an issue naming a character. Well that's a little misleading I have issues coming up with a name to use however once I find a name it has never been taken.

    I'm a firm believer that the only solution to the naming "problem" should be creativity.
  5. Energy Blast and Dual pistols. Nice sets to play and watch.
  6. I am (unfortunately) human, we get hypocrisy as an inherent.
  7. Please take notes and post em here either way.

    Some of us can't use UStream's site and hate social networking on principle.

    Doing nothing.
  9. You can have my knockback when you take it from my cold dead hands.

    Only you won't be able to.. You'll be on the other side of the map stuck in the wall geometry from my Nova/Force Bubble/M30 Grenade/Explosive Blast/Frag Grenade/Energy Torrent/Repulsion Field.


    Knockback is one of the coolest effects in the game not to mention great mitigation from incoming damage.

    To be fair we don't know how he forged it if it really is a solid metal sword it probably had some heft to it. However that is not how I would build a sword like that. Ideally with any large and long weapon you want the tip to be light and your handle heavy, so that when you swing it your handle and cross guard act as a fulcrum point and your tip accelerates faster than your handle providing greater striking power.

    Not to mention how kraptackular their "target" was.

    Suffice to say large weapons can be feasible. However where you are and what you're fighting plays a large part of how effective those weapons are.

    Also we are now done talking about "reality". At least until the US military comes out with a workable Ironman. We are talking about superheroes, in a videogame, it's just data being shifted around.

    The only thing we need to be concerned about is straying too far and turning it into a joke. The weapons themselves and the animations will play a large role in whether or not we cross over that boundary. A boundary which is heavily influenced by our personal opinions.

    I think it will be very interesting to see how this weapon set interacts with knock back, down, and up. As it well as mez effects.

    Stalker primaries on the other hand can pretty much be anything you want.

    All they need to do is add the cardboard box and shrubbery shield's. Problem solved.
  13. Where is Sam?

    WE MUST DANCE CRAZY!

    BIG WEAPONS!

  15. Can't remember off the top of my head but I know that info is in Master Z's guide.
  16. I would say daemons. The resists will stack nicely and it will mesh well thematically with /therm.

    By all means share it.

    This.

    My Bot/FF would like to have END every now and then...
  19. Meh its smashing damage the only other damage more resisted is lethal. I'm not going to lose any sleep over it.

    On top of that it would only have a chance to go off on the attacks with KB.

    Right?

    Once again not everyone has unlimited broadband.

    Once again games, or anything for that matter, downloading stuff without my consent on my computer is something I have an issue with.
  22. Well here is what I did. Ignore the other purple sets I was just messing around

    YES!

    This is a CAPITAL IDEA! Simply CAPITAL! Make it so Devs!
  24. Mercs/Traps

    My attacks have NO redeemable quality's but I always take them. Even the END sucking M30. I just don't see the point in having no attacks its like turning yourself into another minion class pet. Your DPS can only go up.

    I think this is what I have slotted on live. Need to rebuild this toon. Just haven't felt like playing him lately.
