Lord recluse carries a gun because during his and Marcus heyday all heroes carried guns. Then Marcus betrayed Steven and slowly but surely tried to turn the world against him. Only those of the Rogue Isles know the truth of the Marcus Cole plot to take over the world and Lord Recluse and his faithful army intend to stand in his way to make the world safe for Technocracy. The gun is Stevens reminder that even the greatest threat can be faced with a simple application of concussive force to the temple when times are dire indeed. You may now safely remove your tinfoil hats.

That'd be a pretty interesting twist if it was discovered that Statesman was actually the bad guy.

On the topic of PVP - PVP in this game is broken. It used to be good, but after PVP IO's, everything just fell apart. It became less "Who's better with their skills?" and more "Who can afford the most PVP IOs?". I even know a few PVPers that will agree with this statement.

So you really do need to "kit out to the gills" in order to stand any chance, unless you're just messing around with friends.

Though I do like to point out a small, interesting detail. Judging by that wallpaper picture, Lord Recluse is either A.) left-handed, or B.) a left-handed shooter.

Well being left-handed is traditionally associated with evil.

I'm left handed IRL.

Well, that means so is everyone else, since the pistol on the Official belt is on the left, too.

I've always heard that if you're a righty, it's quicker to draw from a holster on your left (assuming the butt of the firearm is pointing forward, hard to tell in that peekchur).

The grip is facing behind the person in both REcluse's holster and the Official belt. Either that's an oversight by the devs (like how the powers Empty Clips and Blast Clip say "clip" instead of "magazine" ) or everyone's left handed.

I'd personally enjoy more varied back, chest and thigh options, as sort of "accessories". I'll give a quick example: the pouches Longbow have on their thighs, the backpacks Malta have, the scabbards Knives of Artemis have, and the chest harness they have. Those kinds of backpacks/holsters/scabbards/pouches and more would be a great addition, and I'm sure it wouldn't be too much of a problem to code to deform with body scaling, because the same thing's done with the chest details.

I've always noticed that Lord Recluse has a pistol on his belt. What's it for? Is it just a normal handgun or does he have something "special" to use it for?

Maybe he uses it when his Crab backpack breaks down? rofl

The "channelgun" is actually an attack from the spider arms. Each individual arm, on a Crab Spider Backpack, is referred to as a "channelgun".

I'm finally glad that there are people on the forums that agree with me. Whenever I talk about this stuff in-game I get accused of being a troll.

Brawl turns off toggles I believe.
