Extremus

They're scaling back the ToHit and Fear Duration from AS.

Ahahaha no inspirations.

Remember that's 10% Base.

Oh man awesome.

Castle's said Suppression's coming.

Yes - by roughly two percent.

This happens every time there's a new power set, lots at the start then it evens out.

DoT which is fine in PvE. Elec/ would sinergise well with /Fire and /MentalManip I think. Should be fun to play, too!

Stealth IO's in auto-powers? I'm pretty sure that was changed pretty quickly after it went Live.

You know, I have to ask. What relative level are you trying to fight against on your Bane? Even con, +1? What?

As for the other ATs, i do have several from 12 to 33:
Brute: I prefer a solid 'state', tanker or scrapper.
Dominator: I have a 33, enjoyable
Corrupter: i prefer a blaster, by far.
Stalker: Imho a underperforming scrapper, not my kind.

I find it the villain AT's a lot more agreeable if you break them down as:

Brute: A Scrapper with more HP and higher damage. Brute's aren't Tank's, don't fall in to that association trap.
Dominator: Blastroller - kinda flat until Domination pops.
Corrupter: Offenders. Simply put when you get them them top they're pretty damn sexy.
Stalker: Stalker's probably fall in to the 'Blaster' tick box the most as they're massive up front damage (Hide/Crits) but are moderately squishy vs many foes (theoretically).

Personally I never enjoyed Villain's too much until I embraced the SMASH! lifestyle with my SS Brute. Brute's aren't there to Tank stuff, they're there to kill everything.

Get to 50 with a villain that's close for the SoA, see how agreeable they are for you. The Grandville content is pretty awesome - despite being yet another brown and grey drab zone.

Not to mention it would completely negate things like Unstoppable.

You will never get unresistable attacks in PvE, Castle has posted recently saying as much.

what you also have to take into account is Assassin strike is unresisted whereas Executioner strike is resisted and since its smashing damage with a hint of toxic, 40+ is gonna be hell.

AS isn't actuall unresisted in PvE if i remember what Castle said. It'll still bounce off high Res like NPC's that use Unstoppable etc... The extra portion is just that, a massive extra portion of damage.

It's not a bug - it's a feature. At least the TP'ing out is.

If there's a blind spot in the Villain Base/Hospital, then really it should be covered by another drone for parity with the Hero side.

(although - isn't there still that spot near the Hero Hospital where you can shoot at people coming out of it?

They are/will start from scratch, the CoP Trial is apparently too broken in concept and application right now to get working.

I hope the continuing trends of PvE nerfs for PvP reasons continue.

(In all seriousness some extra Arena stuff would be awesome - some purpose built new maps and maybe a game mode or two).

It's true - us PvP'ers all got together, put some money towards a plane ticket and sent someone over to NCNC to personally voice our disaproval of Poison Gas Trap.

I think it's more that they don't want Bane Spider's treading on Stalker's toes too much in Villains than wanting Bane's to be worse than Khelds.

TG; why Psi APP?

LN; Looks like you're concentrating on Regeneration - mind if I ask why?

Do you honestly think that I will fight alone?! it's the equivilant of the Germans in World War 2 trying to bomb Britain into submission with just ONE conventional bomb, complete insanity.

So what you're actually saying is, that Villain's (or at least yours) are Nazi's?

Huh? Dude, I've explained Ellie's origin to you often enough, and you STILL get it wrong?

I think he just likes mocking it, really.

Ideally what I'd like is being able to select Widow/Crab etc... from the drop down menu in the normal costume creator.

That way you could (or at least, should in my opinion be able to) set it so that it only has those options available with that set. You've already got certain costume pieces that can't be used with others, so I imagine it's not that far of a stretch.

I could be wrong though, I'm neither Jay nor a code monkey.

While I am a masive fan of CTF gameplay something similar to Defend/Attack (though hopefully this'll come with a base revamp with [u]decent[u] item stats this time) or, thinking about it, something like King of the Hill might be better suited and easier to implement.

If a team needs a Lobster to tank - they have bigger problems than a Kheldian.

Sure they can occupy 5 foes with Taunt, but i'd rather have something with an aura any day.

You could have it so the flag supressed movement speed/TP maybe.

You're a tank anyway. The crash is an opportunity to stand there laughing raucously at the pathetic attempts of the enemy to hurt you. Then you become enraged and smash them for their pitiful audacity!

Unless you're an Ice Tank. Or an Invul relying on Invincibility.
