    GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR. PISTOL SCRAPPERS BEFORE ALL ELSE!

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Just always been real curious how anyone can consider pistols to be a scrapper set. Unless the range is going tobe like 10 feet with maybe 1 longer range attack, to me a pistol set would be either blasters, like a wierd AR more based around single target damage, or a defender set sorta like trick arrow with fancy different type of cartridge loads. But im sorry at the level of damage scrappers can produce, along with the defenses they get(and i know they are not as great as they once were but are still more then a "ranged" AT gets) it seems to me that the balance of the ranged attacks in scrappers grasps already can kinda unbalance the world. Energy torrent, laser eyes, impale and the claw thingy, already do comparable blaster damage and when criticles hit way over. There are many spine scrapers that already build themselves as a quasi blaster, much like a blapper takes the melee strenght and no defense from the blaster sets.

    Sorry but i just dont see how this could possibly not send the world spinning into unbalance. The epic power sets really already did that to a point, but a ranged bases scrapper set, even in a 20-50 foot range would still be way askew to how this game was built to operate. All i really know is if a scrapper can be primarily ranged with integration the whole "blasters are not in the same threat level to get mezz protection" argument is completely blown and i will be expecting to see a regen blaster soon.

    Ya, pistol scrapper power doesn't get me too excited either. It seems to be a big forum favorite though. I'd rather see something more classic comic based, but that's just me.
  2. That's cool! As long as it comes at some time. Heck, There still so many combo's I have yet to play....

    BTW:

    HI STATESMAN!!!!! THANKS FOR DROPPING IN!!!!!

    I yelled in case you had trouble hearing me...

    Actually pistols would be cool, too, but I'm not digging that as much as many of you seem to. I would like to see a hand-to-hand melee combat power that doesn't begin with the word "DARK". All this darkity dark stuff is wearing thin to me in a superhero game. Especially once CoV hits the market, every other character is going to be "Dark".
  4. I hear that in I6 Statesman will come to your house and chop off your fingers so you have play by pecking keys with your nose...

    I believe it's time to flee to the nearest mall and shut myself in with all of the guns and ammo I can carry!
  6. I'm trying to remain offended and outraged, but my anger is weakening under the weight of my post count...
  7. I for one am offended at the idea of padding one's post count!
    The dev's should change this immediately.
  8. And besides, I have never been to North Carolina, and refuse to believe there is such a place. I think all these so called "North Carolinians" are disgruntled Virginians trying to start trouble!
  9. As the new sarcastic, intolerant and grouchy old man on the boards, I have to say that I love this thread! 5 Stars!
  10. I thought "North Dakota" was a make-believe place like "Scotland" and "North Carolina".
  11. Awesome guide by a person with awesome credentials. Makes my altoholic self want to go and make my first Ice/Dev blaster!
  12. I was a lowly grav/kin newbie controller that was only allowed to use my powers to heal real heroes on pick-up teams. Then I WENT. I HUNTED (with a spines scrapper friend), and I actually KILLED SKULS.

    Now I am a mob-holding uber-controller feared throughout Paragon City! Thanks COMPLETE Go.Hunt. Kill Skuls Guide!

    Well aparently the devs have stoped listening or had a collectivl anurism, i mean, really, only xp if you do dmg, are they bloody daft? I thought they like defenders, then whey are they premelizing any AT that puts team suppor over direct dmg?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Yep, I agree. I don't see how this can be considered unfair, especially with the "anywhere on mission map" caveat. Then again, I don't powerlevel.

    *Sigh*

    It's not the Devs that had the "anurism".

    Statesman: If a player is in a zone, did NO damage in a combat and has [been] dead for more than a minute, he receives no XP. If a player is more than 300 ft. away (an increase of 100 ft.) from the mob when it’s defeated and did NO damage, he receives no XP. Otherwise, the player receives his full share of XP.

    If players are on a mission map, they always receive their full shares. There’s no distance limitation. Teams can split up in maps – players can be separated by elevators – everyone receives their XP.

    This system does not affect Mission rewards.

    How can you say a support AT is being "penalized" for not doing damage? You ain't supporting you team much if you are back 300 feet munching on Cheetos.

  14. My 2 inf:

    Blaster HP-- Sweet, I may finally stick with one of my blaster alts for more than a week.

    Stores-- Don't get it... I go sell the useless drops after every mission. Need the stores. Fix the drops or don't change the stores.

    Stamina... PLEASE REMEMBER- We are playing super heroes here! This isn't EQ... let us be super!

    Making the game more challenging (nerf)-- see above statement.

    Add more content, don't screw us... or all you will have left is new players!
