    Current in game examples:
    But it's also kind of pointless to hype up a signature character's death if they're not being removed from the game world.

    I completely misread what you said but Aggelakis is correct, you've never been able to do this.

    Then why are you so certain about how long this change would take to code?????????????????????????????????????
  6. Vanguard weapon models already cover the "pure energy melee weapon" thing, albeit not for all of the powersets you listed.

    Alright I'll give it a shot. Yes, from my description all you would need to do is code in an attack on Stalker in full Hide that provides x% against bosses, x% against EBs, and x% against AVs, with an unresistable stun, even when purp triangles are up. Sure, they would shake it off in a second (should be a very short stun) but thats just the biz.

    So, that is my serious reply.

    You want to explain why that is not a few hours coding, since it is just altering one power in 12 sets?
    You know precisely nothing about what the actual code looks like. (Possibly you don't even know how actual programming works, but that's purely a guess and apologize if I'm mistaken.) You cannot make any definitive statement about how long it would take, nor are you aware of any potential side-effects the changes might have (the devs themselves might not even be aware; that's how bugs happen).

    Make fewer definitive statements and qualify some stuff and then maybe your suggestion will merit some modicum of respect.

    I'm hard-pressed to give an exact answer to this but I'm pretty sure it's correct that this was tried at some point.

    "a few hours coding"

    lol
  9. how the hell is this thread at 6 pages and still open????????
  10. Were you nice to the CS rep the last time you called or did you yell at them?
  11. Set bonuses aren't enhancements and thus are not subject to ED. It's a global buff to damage.

    I believe the door on Safeguard mission maps is an ambulance/mobile triage station, since that's where you rez.

    It goes a lot faster* now than it used to. Rewards have increased, teams are more proficient so trials get run faster and with a higher success rate. With revamped Dark Astoria there will be very few excuses remaining to not use the system ("it doesn't fit my character/I just don't like the story").

    *Well, "faster" anyway.

    I always like more choices. This was just an idea that I feel would be a decent way to add extra. ;>
    Epic = Ancillary for the purposes of Samuel's post (and "epic" doesn't mean "more powerful" in any content I can think of regarding City of Heroes).

    Essentially what you're saying is that you want more and a wider variety of these pools. I don't think anyone would disagree with you there, but there's no need to frame them as another type of thing when that type of thing already exists.
  15. Captain Photon, please come here for a moment.
  16. Posts flamebait, tells people not to flame.
  17. Um...we already have this. That's the entire point of Ancillary Power Pools.
  18. Still waiting for this "test" to be deleted.

    Are you sure the Heisenberg compensators can handle that level of isochronitons?

    Precisely one of the current 6 trials* works the way you described.

    *I haven't run Minds of Mayhem yet so I'm assuming on that one.
  21. Please don't watch Fantastic Four (1994). Just...don't.
  22. I have to say, Will Sasso makes a very good Curly.

    But then there's Snooki, so this movie can go ahead and burn in the unending and eternal pits of every single hell.

    I'm still confused about 1) How a fan made this and 2) How a fan made a video that so accurately matches what the devs are actually working on that the devs showed the video as a preview of the powerset.

    I suspect neither of these questions can be answered on this forum.
