    Oh well, I guess I'll put in the +Chance for stun.
    That would make it terrible for teambuff powers like SB, RA.

    I think it should be changed from the typical invasion format in one particular way
    Get rid of the droves of lag inducing canon fodder troops in the main event; you can have them spawn all over the zone away from the main event.

    For the Main event have GM Nemesis "leading" A bunch of AV Nemesii who in turn "lead" a few Fake Nemesis EBs


    "A nemesis plot" is a weak badge title is there anyway we could be granted a "Stopped A Nemesis Plot" badge? That is a title I could drop "Ex-Archvillian" for. The badge text could read "with all the Nemesii you've taken out at least one of them had to be the real deal, right?"

Id say its more in place to prevent some sort of exploit but they never took the time to really fix the problem.
    Really I've seen people take the "wrong" OB portal and have plenty of time to travel back to the "right" side for tfs

    But overall, the odds of procs firing on the higher-tier attack chains improves (As demonstrated by Synapse). So why are we complaining? Besides, as someone who quite religiously uses Entropic Chaos on my Blasters/Corrs/VEATs I would love for those procs to not have such an abyssmally low firing rate. (I mean seriously, why is Mako's Bite 20% but Entropic Chaos heal just 10%?)
    why wouldn't you have put your procs in a t1/t2? Those are the best places for flat rate procs

    Simple question but I'm not 100% clear.

    Thanks!
    I believe it only works in click heals

    Do i get all the PP points worth in the next stipend? Or will it just accumulate every month the same as if I was on recurring billing?

    I would hold back on any post purchase sbe nerf until a system was in place to refund anyone and everyone unsatisfied with the new version; if not cash at least a points credit. If that means those crying about pay 2 win (in this highly, highly competitive mostly pvp game) cry harder and for longer, than so be it; that would be infinitely better than ripping off customers shamelessly.

    There's three clickies gone, and left with buffs, a debuff that's only really useful on tougher targets, and an AOE Debuff!
    if I had a 2 sets that offered a hold I would want both for stacking

    Really? I thought the front loaded damage also came from the pseudo pet if it counts as attack from the castor that makes burn even more valuable than I thought...

    100% of the damage you do is base. +300% damage is base + 3xdamage, 400% is 4xdamage. It's just a different way of writing the same thing.

    Got ya, did


    wow pseuo pets really are poor on brutes then, does the same count for damaga toggles? How is it that burn is considered such a good power?

    Shield is better on a Scrapper than a Brute, as mentioned, but that doesn't mean it's bad on a Brute. You said you want to tank and don't want to give up much damage, which is pretty much a perfect description of a Brute. You will be less sturdy than a Tanker, of course, but there's a huge gulf between "less tough than a Tanker" and "not tough enough to tank at all".

    No, Shield Charge's base damage is about half again as much on a Scrapper as it is on a Brute (Mids for some reason is displaying the Scrapper damage wrong, but you can check in-game). As a pseudopet, it also has a damage cap of +300%, which means it often cannot benefit fully from a Brute's fury, either.
    Ah then I take back what I said, as I was going by mids but I thought pseudo pets had the standard 400% cap for all ats

    Between Tank and Brute? Yup.

    Not necessarily.

    This is pretty much right. Relatively simple to softcap, and you gain more benefit from AAO. Also, due to the oddball way Shield Charge works, Scrappers get a lot more mileage out of it than Brutes. Also, War Mace is amazing on scrappers. Just incredible.
    That is really only true on teams with significant +damage buffs I think the base damage of shield charge for all 3 melee ATs is similar

    Completely unrelated to this, am I the only one who doesn't remember the new genesis sphere/flying motorcycle showing up in the series before it's spotlight episode?

    All of your other suggestions sound reasonable, though, except maybe the MM PPP pet thing, since the ancillary pools are supposed to give you some of what your AT lacks, and MMs don't lack for pets.
    The PPPs gives controllers and doms pets, scrappers/stalkers a high mini crashless elude def click power, and a -tohit, - dmg toggle to B/T/SOA; the PPPs give recharge intensive pets which is something most MMs don't have access to so this suggestion would be giving something the AT doesn't have outside demons, storm, and thugs.

    Both Times I got the following message:

    "You have quit your team
    SNAKE's General Fury was unable to join your team"

    First time I got booted by going to the vanguard base, 2nd time I got booted before the last board transit mission when I went to OB from PI

    I petioned both but I thought I'd let the player base know as well

    -Give MMs and Blasters PPP pets

    -More PPPs pls
    http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=273827

    -Why is there no PVP pet set? All the other attack types get a pvp set, a bunch of non attack types, and even buff types get a set but pets don't get a set???
    My suggestion:
    E/D/R
    A/D
    A/D/R
    D/R
    20% chance for minor fire dmg(33% in pvp)
    2: 2% end recov
    1.5% cold/fire res
    3: 4 mag res placate
    4 mag res taunt
    4: 7.5% rech buff
    7.5% res rech slow
    5: 12% regen
    2% hp increase
    6: 2.5% psionic res
    2% psionic def
