Here's something that's good for use with tights: Back emblems. Exactly like chest emblems, but on the back. They could attach in the Back Detail slot, right? I mean, it's not like you need both a back emblem AND any of the back details we already have, since a cape, backpack, or wings would just obscure it anyway.

Also, more emblems. I can't believe we don't have a simple teardrop shape to use. Or SHINY emblems! That would be so cool, to have your spandex or leather tights and then a metallic emblem that's still flush with the surface of your tights... or to have a version that glows in the dark, that'd be sick... okay I'm getting sidetracked here, I'll stop now

But seriously, emblems are such an important part of tights outfits that I feel this isn't really misplaced.

This could be as simple as adding new primary/secondary color mask patterns for the Long and Short capes we already have. Unfortunately it would probably not be doable to add an emblem on top of an existing cape pattern (example, no using the Points cape pattern and then adding a Medieval 1 emblem to it - would only be able to add a Medieval 1 cape pattern) due to the way cape physics work, but it would still be cool.

Would be trickier for trenchcoats... but seeing as we aren't allowed to use back details with trenchcoats anyway, that's an attachment point that could be used. It'd take some new modeling but they could work just like chest emblems.

Personally, I hate the notion of the "girl gamer." I am a woman who plays video games. That's all. I'm not special or different for it, I'm not trying to be cool, I'm not trying to be one of the guys, and I'm frankly a little embarrassed that I do fall into almost all the stereotypes.

To answer your questions:

I play blue. I used to play red exclusively, then slowly started drifting over, then noticed that people actually PLAY on blueside so I stuck around.

I enjoy playing every AT except blaster and stalker. I most prefer what might be called "aggressive support," meaning "controllers and defenders that can hold their own in scrapperlock." The four toons I play most often are an Ill/Rad controller, a Grav/Kin controller, a Time/Sonic defender, and a melee fortunata. For a long time I also had a BS/Shield scrapper and a Grav/Rad troller that I enjoyed a lot but I play them less these days.

My favorite zone is probably Croatoa.

Of the three characters (as distinct from toons - keep reading) I play, the Ill/Rad is a woman, the Grav/Kin and Time/Sonic who are two versions of the same person are a man, and the Fortunata is a vaguely female Cthulhubeast.

I am a roleplayer. Every one of my characters has a concept behind it, and the reason I only really play three of them out of the many, many alts I've come up with is so I can keep track of personalities and story interaction with the other people in my RPSG (and so the rest of my SGmates can too). The Ill/Rad is a time-displaced scientist from the age of steampunk who is delighted that she can now vote and have a doctorate in a field that means something - not to mention is fascinated by all the advancements in technology over the past hundred years, the Grav/Kin//Time/Sonic is a Midnighter who began dabbling in the dark secrets of immortality sometime in the 1930s and is haunted by his conscience, and the Fortunata is an escaped product of mad Arachnos science cloned from Rularuu stock who has decided that Primal Earth belongs to her and it's therefore her job to maintain it. Two of the three characters (the midnighter and the cthulhubeast) are romantically attached, but I don't ERP and did not plan said attachments.

I'm on Virtue.

My "main" has switched a few times... first it was a grav/energy dominator on Triumph, then I moved to Virtue and made a sword/shield scrapper who became my main, then I joined a new supergroup and my widow became my main, then an alt who was in that supergroup got promoted and my widow had a plot-related disappearance and the alt, a grav/kin controller, became (and remains) the closest thing I have to a main character. He'll probably stay that way for a long time, due to IC officership and also I freely admit that I've become somewhat infatuated with him.

I see this all the time. At least half of the supergroup I'm in does it, myself included ever since Time Manipulation came out and I didn't want to reroll my level 50 Grav/Kin who had a temporal theme. There's actually three of him now, all on Virtue: the original Grav/Kin controller Hour Thief, the Time/Sonic defender version Horoclept, and the Praetorian Grav/Energy dominator Tempo Rubato that I made when I jumped on the bandwagon of people in my SG making Praetorian counterparts to their main characters.

But yeah, let's see... one of our leaders has a katana/regen scrapper and a MA/regen scrapper who are the same person and also a ninja MM Praetorian version of her; the other leader has at least two of his... actually I don't know what Phaize is, but there are two of him; another officer has at least three of his mace/shield tank, one of which is a titan weapons brute and the other an archery/time corruptor; a couple non-officers made Titan Weapons versions of their characters when it came out too, without deleting the originals; two members made Kheldian-fused versions of their characters for story purposes... yeah, it's definitely a thing people do.

I'm terrible with brutes. Seriously. I am the worst brute player. Hand me a brute and I will faceplant faster than if you hand me a blaster. I'm actually that bad.

I do have a wicked melee fortunata, though.

I dunno, I think that in a superhero game there's a certain charm to having characters that look plastic and doll-like.

Okay, then the store's not working and it's lying, because I have zero tokens in my character items inbox.

I keep trying to buy them on the test server and it says I get one applied to my account, but I can't figure out how to actually use them... I have a hero that I was thinking about taking red temporarily for Soul Mastery, and an alignment change token would be majorly useful for trying that out, but where do I go to actually change my alignment?

Or si the store just not working, and it's lying to me when it says I have an alignment change token?

Either one, really.

Currently it's "cross my fingers and hope." Naturally, this is insufficient. I've been fiddling around in Mids trying to come up with something that will survive alpha, but I've yet been unable to softcap even one kind of defense, so that's clearly not the route I ought to take.

I'm probably thinking about this totally wrong and there's some way of going about this by way of power usage and being good at playing controllers that I'm missing, too.

Basically, given these power sets and Teleportation as my travel power, how do I not die?

I've been playing this game since shortly after the CoV launch.

About five minutes ago, I discovered the "Sell stack now" option while getting rid of a lot of common salvage, in stacks of 20-30.

My finger had been getting tired from all the click spamming...

Concept ALWAYS comes first for me... my Time/Sonic defender doesn't have Shout for the sole reason of its lacking a hands-emission-point customization option.


Also, the entire Gravity powerset. I have three characters with it.

Both.


I have a Virtue server with three full pages of characters. Most of them are not above level 20.
