That's actually not true. Common sense can be described as the collection of prejudices that a person who is not skeptical of their culture will acquire through socialization. So it is more often a case of geniuses knowing common sense is just wrong, and the less intelligent around them assuming the genius is wrong.

No it isn't. The merits are what they were when it launched. That answer would work for the other TFs.

Thank you. Praetoria has less excuse than real world dictatorships do, and Joker commits crimes not because Batman let him live, but because the writers won't let anybody keep him imprisoned. There is no more to be read than that.

I'm certainly not... but I know how this will go. Lots of people will. so I tried to come up with solutions that would be faster and less resource intensive than a full patron system to satisfy those who ask for it.

If there is no attempt to cross over PPP's, that would be just as good, in my opinion.

But Woodsman is not a dev, so if the reason for unique costumes is to stop impersonators, he doesn't need them.

Not surprising, but this will not work very well in practice for those who switch often.

Yes! Very pleased that this was reversed since the last info was given. It just makes sense.

It can work if heroes get some sort of 'spy' arc that unlocks stolen, err, liberated powers.

Very pleased that it works this way. That was my best case scenario theory. I could see these becoming the primary content in the game.

JUNGLE ZONE PLEASE!

That would be up there ahead of moon base and shadow shard. A jungle or wild nature zone would be so cool and a welcome variety from most zones.

Perhaps the well is some universal repository of power that can be accessed in many ways? Preferably any reference to mythology would be far from whatever it is.

Every MMO pointlessly sticks 'gods' into the center of its lore. Doing so would go against strengths of the superhero genre, which include near universal concepts.

Pedantic: The answer heavily implied that the well is the only source. But it does suggest that what the well is may be more complex than previously said.

What they did say is that the fountain of zeus is not the only way to access it.

Wow, this is like the best thing you can hear a MMO dev say, next to "we added the ability to shoot 20 dollar bills at you."

I'm very pleased with the War Witch leadership so far.

That. I expect it will work that way eventually, after the devs accept that AT by alignment is absurd. They eventually added respecs of patrons, market merge, etc. It's just a question of how long it takes to get over whatever the conceptual or technical hurdle is.

Is this why most of the faces are too serious?

If so this would be the highest priority to me, because that is why I only use a few of them.

I think what he is implying is that those writers suck.

He has a point, to a point. BLAHBLAH I'M EVIL is not a motivation, and is almost always a sign of terrible writing, if not total ignorance of writing. Lots of players do it, as did whoever wrote Arachnos, which is why they suck.

It can work as a joke or an homage to bad writing, but only works otherwise if the story has considerable advantages in other ways.

Now this is weird. Why does scare have a longer duration than any other mez?

Thanks for that build!

That's actually the biggest of any reason not to accept booster power creep.

If booster powers are often strong, anybody who wants to maximize their power has to buy every pack that comes out, which adds up to a ton and sends us down the path of pay for performance. It can also make data mining of certain powersets weird if the power especially favors a particular type of set, as this booster does.

Nerva is just what more of the isles should be, other than having the 2 most common groups populating most of it. It's like a mix of anarchy and rogueness.

That is just confusing. It was INTENDED to be proactive? Did they just not tell any of the team? Because it's dramatically less so than heroes.
