    I can't believe people think that the Statesman TF will be hard for heroes to do.

    I mean, look at the devs - they are using an AR Blaster and Archery Blaster as part of their main team. Talk about non-optimising your group :-)

    It could also just be a change in animations for a claws or spines power.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Or it could be the Nemesis Staff seen from a strange angle.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Okay, fine. It's not the Nemesis Staff.

    It is *not* a new powerset or a re-do of spines or any other powerset. Sorry to disappoint.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Well? Out with it already, we're tired of speculating ...

    I've got a fire/ tank and a /fire brute. I'm fine with the change.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Same with one caveat, I'd like an AoE Immob for my Tanker.

    That is all.

    Oh - and I'd love to do a giant mech game. Love it.

    Please please please please PLEASE!
  5. Finally. Too bad my DM/FA made 50 already. Oh well, it will be useful in the few arcs I have yet to complete

    Hey, Lighthouse, any chance you can see if Cryptic would be willing to make the game announce how many free costume changes upon entering the game like they do currently with respecs? Huh, huh, pretty please?

    Example:
    You have X respecs available.
    You have X free tailoring sessions available.

    meh to the above, i can't see Blizzard being an alpha to anything other than Rikti Monkies

    !!!

    Good lord mate you have to be a hold over from the pre-rain-buff days.

    Ice Storm and Blizzard are MONEY now that they are buffable! MONEY!

    Heck you can take out whole spawns without even stepping into sight... that's just sick.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Nonsense, my friend, nonsense. Ashamed that a fellow Chicagoan would post such nonsense.

    Blizzard is in firm need of a buff. It's gimp. Up the KD chance to 20% per .2 seconds. Admittedly, this is barely enough to make the power passable, but Ice Blasters are used to being the underdog.

  9. Thanks for the info Lighthouse. Pay no attention to the schmoes in this thread.

    I'm sure it will be the usual 1/per slot award.

    Please let us know when you've confirmed it?
    Thanks!

    Um, my level 35 Ice/Ice routinely stomps +1's and +2's into the dirt with Blizzard. The ability to use Aim and BU with many Rain type powers has greatly increased their efficacy.

    Probably the best way to answer this is to refer to comics -- When The Human Torch 'goes nova' he puts everything he has into it and pretty much knocks himself out. That's the 'feel' these powers are meant to reflect.

    As for MoG, no comment at this time.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Yea but when the Human Torch goes nova, he can melt Ultron to slag.

    When I go nova, there's still two remaining Devouring Earth bosses that chuckle and then proceed to introduce my hero's face to a radical pummeling and an opportunity to use my HMO copay on the teleport to the hospital.

    LOL!

  14. This is for the info on how to unlock a 5th Costume slot with Salvage you earn from Trick or Treating. The contacts will not be giving you any missions.
  15. I'm going off the fact that it was stated in the Training Room Feedback Thread that High levels wouldn't be able to camp doors in Atlas Park for example.

    Look here for more info : Halloween on Test
  16. There aren't any missions. The event takes place in every zone but your character needs to be in a zone appropriate to your level to be able to Trick or Treat.

    I just hope you guys aren't giving away the badges from the first halloween.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    You might want to read some of the feedback from when this was on Test for a weekend .... the old Badges will in fact be available this year.
  18. [ QUOTE ]
    Sometimes the answers are easy.

    Halloween's shadow (read: the event duration) will stretch from October 18 until November 1st.

    An official email will be sent out the day the event begins, and should include the specific time the event will conclude on the 1st.

    cheers,

    Sweet! Plenty of time for Badging up Mains and Alts as well as collecting enough Salvage for a few 5th Costume slots on the characters that are serious clotheshorses.

  19. [ QUOTE ]
    Can we have word of its duration, please?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Hopefully it will run all the way through the 31st.

    Upgraded...

    All I can say is I'm completly underwhelmed by what you get, and yes I feel slightly ripped off.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Why? They advertised what they were giving very clearly. There have been tons of posts about what the costume options are, how the jetpack works and what the Pocket D teleport thing does and where it takes you.

    If you feel ripped off you have only yourself to blame.

    Does anyone else feel screwed over since PlayNC won't accept mastercards to buy serials online?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Sorta. My Bank just ditched Visa in favor of MC so that means any purchases from PlayNC will have to go on a CC instead of my Debit Card.

    I would greatly appreciate someone from NC updating us on this debacle; it's just as simple as someone making a call to marketing and asking what the frag is going on...

    I too would love an official update from a Red Name on this issue ...

    If I was them I wouldn't.

    You'll get over it eventually.

    That's excellent business savvy, clearly, you'll go far with your own business someday.
