And yet, still with a 10 minute window, when people are mostly at work. More fair than it was, but still kinda Pancake.

Not any of the groups I was part of.

Sure, if you grew up in opposite world.

The community team thinks our tears are delicious.

Fixed.

You forgot Slime Blast, which is a big one in the comic book universe. (Though an argument could be made that it's covered by combining your "Glue Blast" and "Poison Blast" example, since that's how it's most often used.)
Didn't he always shape-shift into water or ice? He couldn't really do anything with those forms unless somebody else moved him.

Although, now that you mention it, I am reminded of the Justice League Unlimited episode(s) where they reimagined some of the original Super Friends characters as a competitive hero organization (comprised of genetically engineered clones secretly owned by the US government). There were analogs of Zan and Jana there; she turned into a sea dragon, and he blasted water from his hands before turning into a tsunami and flooding the complex.

I'd imagine it's a lot easier to collect and form moisture out of the surrounding air than, say, a chunk of iron... which is probably why clouds rain water instead of bullets.

I was gonna say something along these lines. "Just take Sonic Blast and keep 'singing' at them until they pass out from it."

Dude, have you not played Smash Bros? They couldn't even give him 4 unique special attacks... other than Sing, he's got Pound, Rollout and Rest.

How do you expect the developers to make 9 "sing them to sleep" attack powers?



(And yes, I get that you were being facetious, but it was a bad example regardless.)

Anyway, how many villains in comic books blast slime all over everything? Color the water green or purple and bam, you've got all the source material you need to justify it.

Don't be a jerk about it; just ask some people on one of your server's global channels for help. There are bound to be others out there looking for badges.

As for why Destructive isn't being awarded, no idea. Are you 100% sure that you didn't already have the badge? In your badge farming mission, did you set the destructible object as a necessary requirement for completing the mission? Have you tried with other types of destructible objects in case the one you initially chose is bugged somehow?

You could just, like, read the Community and Dev digests. The last Intrepid Informer article said Water Blast would be coming out today.

Try looking at it this way:



You only pay 395PP for all that stuff, which is about 23% of the total individual value.

The 30 day Rocket Pack is global, but everything else can only be claimed on one character per charge (except the Warwolf Whistle, in which all charges get claimed at once).

They're the +25% for an hour variety. Despite your confusion, there's only ONE power called "XP Booster."

(And there are ZERO powers that give you automatic XP boosts until you reach level X, so I don't even know why you asked that.)

We got Dark Control, Dark Assault and Darkness Affinity included with VIP subscription in Issue 22--aka, March.

Indeed.

WHERE IS BIO ARMOR!?! (I kid, I kid!)

Freakshow Boss was DEFINITELY a convention exclusive... The Halloween Freakshow costume is a Stunner.

I suppose I may have been wrong about the Coralax (since someone else pointed out that there are actually two Coralax costumes, one for the event and one for Halloween).

Nothing BRAND new that we haven't seen in the game before, no. Other than the free hat.

But they did add 3 mid-level ranged damage enhancement sets and 4 NPC transformation powers (3 of which were former code exclusives).

The other three were former convention (or event, in the Coralax's case) exclusives. The Malta one is a regular Halloween drop.

The bigger question is why the Malta one isn't even cheaper... though it has been reduced from its original 800PP price, back when CoH Freedom went live.

Indeed, I saw that patch note on beta after I'd written the above post.

It's Tuesday again, and that of course means NEW STUFFS DAY!

First and foremost, today's release includes a new FREE costume piece, the "Freedom Freebie" Tricorner Hat, to celebrate the 4th of July and honor the founders of the USA (y'know, that country that Paragon City is located in?). It will only be available until July 9th, so grab it quick!

In continuing with the July 4th theme, the Fireworks aura and emotes are back in the store (at 50% off, no less!) at a cumulative total of 100 Paragon Points for the four items. Like the hat, they will only be available until July 9th.

Also returning to the store is a small selection of NPC transformation powers. We've got the Malta Gunslinger transformation power for 440 Paragon Points and the Coralax Minion, Freakshow Boss and Knives of Artemis transformation powers for 480 Paragon Points apiece (though they're each on sale for 50% off this week).

Finally, we've got three sets of mid-level Ranged Damage Enhancements added to the store today: Salvo (10-25), Tempest (15-30) and Entropic Chaos (20-35). Each is on sale at 50% off for the the release week.

EDIT: Spreadsheet and OP have been updated. (That took foreeeever.) x_x;

Indeed! They're 25% off this week!

With bugged enhancements that can't be properly traded or converted?

It's not like the set is going to disappear if you don't pick it up in the first week. And it's highly unlikely to debut at a discount.

(I'd also imagine that the majority of people--at least in the US--get paid either every other week or twice a month, as opposed to weekly)
