Good for you!

One idea, possibly not the most appropriate song for an Arbiter of Arachnos but I think it might have the right vibe to it.

T-Rex - Children of the Revolution

Or there's the cover version in Moulin Rouge by Bono, Gavin Friday and Maurice Seezer

And one more for luck, Jefferson Airplane - Somebody to Love

Nothing like having a fight while sliding straight down the side of a monolith.

And that chick with the dual pistols? Yeah, that's what the new powerset is going to be like.

I vaguely recall an alien named Blargenwargen...or was that a character of Terminus13's?

Would you mind giving us a clue Blarg?
WELCOME BACK!

With Pain and Dark we shoud be fine, the last set could be either Traps or Kin, pick whichever, it doesn't really matter which. Also, I think we have Dark Blast already, and we lack Assault Rifle. Rifle puts out some VERY Good damage that we may need, so consider it a viable option.

Does everyone have their characters ready? Remember first level benchmark is 14-16, let us know once you get there.

@Fenrisulfr: Why Blue Skin?

[/ QUOTE ]

Honestly, the initial blank slate that was brought up when I was first doing the costume had blue skin. It looked quite well with the black and deep wine.
Also suited the character being a mutant, as you specified for dark blast characters.

Did you only want one of each type of corrupter or would it be acceptable to double-up on a particular secondary?

Here's a mock-up of a corrupter I'm thinking of creating.
Esther Corneille

So Big Daddy, which sort of corrupter are you making? I think a pair of /dark corrupters would be pretty effective at flooring an enemies chance-to-hit.

So in an attempt at summary, this change:
<ul type="square">[*]Was to prevent player pets' powers receiving unintended +recharge from HO, SHO enhancements and IO sets that included recharge bonuses, but were not recharge specific.[*]Primarily targeted Voltaic Sentinel, Lightning Storm and Gun Drone which were attacking much faster than intended.[*]May or may not improve current problems with the Bruiser and Fly Trap endlessly using a single power.[*]May or may not improve other problems with general pet AI.[*]Prevents all player pets from being affected by recharge affecting buffs OR debuffs.[*]Will not prevent pets summoned by NPCs by being buffed or debuffed with recharge effects.[*]Does not prevent player pets from inheriting recharge buffs/debuffs from the player summoning.[/list]Is this correct? Please reply with my errors.
Also, if I'm correct this means that speed boosting a pet will only increase their endurance recovery. Yes?
Also, is a pets movespeed still affected by buffs?

I don't know if this has been covered before, but is there going to be a way for custom critters to use an existing npcs powers?

For example if I want to make a boss with radiation melee, I could select:

[Powers]
-[NPC Powers]
--[Shivans]
---[Shivan Destroyer]

And that gives my custom critter all the powers that that NPC has and possibly the AI of that NPC critter as well. Of course this would also prevent me from adding a second powerset, but to do otherwise would likely mess up the critter anyway.

So just to repeat the question in case it was forgotten while reading the example; [u]Is there going to be a way for us to give a custom critter an existing npcs powers?[u]

*clap clap clap*

Whoooo!

V. Well done. I enjoyed it muchly.

Self destruction looks incredible, and I can think of a character that it'd suit perfectly.

I didn't think I'd buy it but...

War mace is an awesome looking option for brutes.

Mind you I haven't seen anyone pull off the bone or wood club look with success.

Oh Graver13...will I ever have the money to commission you...

*sighs, with hands clasped longingly to chest*

I thought of something else that might not have been mentioned yet and that could stand another look at.

/hide in pvp zones.

It's not a huge problem, (I might be wrong on that count) but it's definately an annoying one. Sometimes dedicated or 'hardcore' pvp'ers will set themselves on /hide just so that they are not listed in a pvp zone when someone tries using /whoall to get an idea of how many people are in a zone.

Of course some people might be using /hide as a method of reducing random team or supergroup invitation spams. It's not only the pvp'ers that do it.

It's just something that I've found niggling at me once in a while.

I had a long post written up, but kept getting stuck for words.

So I'll be short,
I support the OP's ideas.
Except for the removal of the Siren's Call hotspot battles.
I like participating in those. It's fun helping out the Arachnos/Longbow and it makes me feel like more than a mere criminal or catcher of criminals.
It's really the only place where you can see and join in with largescale npc battles.

My top 10.

1. PvP Flight improvement (or PvP jump nerf, perhaps increase number of -jump powers or make -jump as binary as -fly so that jump powers are detoggled and can't be retoggled for the duration of -jump)

2. Hero and villain combat is not balanced, especially in the 40+ game. The most popular suggestion is to open up a set of APP for villains and allow them to respec out of their patron pools to get those.

3. Fury does not build as intended.

4. If you are killed, you’ll sometimes get a bounty dot on the map where you died. This can lead to having multiple dots on the map and being unable to distinguish your true bounty.

5. The lack of meaningful rewards discourages people from participating in zone PvP.

6. A player can do most of the damage to another player and still get no reward if an off team player kill steals him. Award partial credit for Bounty based on damage, as is done for XP when 2 different unteamed players defeat a mob on the street.

7. Villains have no access to ally grantable +perception in Sirens. Switch the order of sonic repulsion and clarity.

8. People often have to reset matches multiple times to get an acceptable map. Add selectable maps, as well as the ability to eliminate maps from the selection while still having a random pick.

9. When more than one team of heroes or villains is in the zone, they have no way to communicate and plan an assault without the opposing side hearing. Make request faction side only.

10. Very few people use the arena on live because of the lack of competition there, while test server arena is filled with people. Allow the arena to be cross-server.

I liked it a lot, although I'll have to agree with Solos comment regarding the cutting at every attack. Quite distracting

Short and sweet.

Q31: How do I get salvage?
A31: You get Salvage by playing in Supergroup Mode. Playing in SG mode enables Salvage as an additional drop type, like Enhancements and Inspirations. Various groups drop different types of salvage. Alternately, you can trade for salvage with other players.

[/ QUOTE ]

Do lieutenants and bosses have a better chance to drop salvage than regular minions? Or is it all the same chance no matter what you kill?

Furthermore, does anyone have the actual percentage numbers for salvage drops?

I would have gotten away with it too, if it weren't for those meddling kids.
