    With his immortality and the power of the Well, Tyrant can end every conflict and every kind of suffering throughout every single dimension, and bring peace and healing to the multiverse for eternity.
    Finally you see the light. All hail Emperor Cole!
  2. I always wonder why people would go looking for what's not in an issue instead of what's actually in it.

    All heroes aren't perfect. There are also vigilantes. And I didn't say it was a quest for "unimited powah" but an attempt to use one powerful multi-versal threat to destroy another. Even some heroes will see the benefit of that.

    I'm with Eva Destruction. The characters I've got who are connected to the world are more fun for me than characters who are separate from it.

    Now you're just being ridiculous. I can tell by the smileys and by having read a lot of ridiculous posts in the past.

    Here's my prediction: some time in the future villains will try to release Rularuu from his prison in order to use him as a weapon against Praetoria and Tyrant. Heroes will be allowed to tag along on this scheme to potentially destroy a world, just like villains had to tag along on schemes to protect it before. Darrin Wade or someone like him will be the contact.

    Oooh yeeeah! That would be perfect, even if it was nothing but 3 boss spawns on it.

    Well for what it's worth at least this guide inspired me to make a DM/Fire/Soul [something]. I haven't decided on whether to go scrapper or brute yet, or even tanker. I had a DM/Fire brute a long time ago but now with inherent stamina it's probably going to be a lot more fun. So thanks for the inspiration.

    A real utopia wouldn't have an armed uprising in it.
    What a strange definition of "totally evil". But if that's what you really think then I understand why your posts about morality and Praetoria are so funny.
  10. I just want to know what Cole's been up to while we've been making a mess of his town.

    Praetor White or someone tells us that Cole is "off saving the world" when we start out in Praetoria.

    Some Loyalists meet Cole after they leave Praetoria, beyond the portal, in Primal Earth.

    I can't even remember if he shows up in Maria Jenkins' arc anymore or if that's his clone.

    So what has he been doing all this time? What is he doing if he's not really "off saving the world"? That's the part of the story I want to know more about. Is he the Hamidon's puppet, like I tend to believe, or the Well's? Or is he controlling both of them? Why isn't he leading the invasion himself? Etc.

    I got Harrisburg.
  12. How about duplicating all the details in each detail category, so "details 1" would have horns, glasses, beards, etc, and "details 2" would also have horns, glasses, beards, etc, and so would "details 3". So what if people can pick the same detail twice or three times? That seems a small price to pay for the ability to have both horns and glasses at the same time.
  13. I'm more interested in the names I once had but let slip away, which were stolen by other, less worthy, players.

    Squamous

    Perfect Gentleman


    On the other hand I've been given gifts of names that other people couldn't use for some reason.

    Faerytale

    Planetary

    And then there are some I came up with on my own which I'm still surprised I got.

    Roboboy

    Dreamlord

    Mechamorph

    (The) Highest
  14. Excellent idea. I've been unable to join for a couple of weeks due to being busy on Saturdays.
  15. I'm guessing they don't want us to save up merits and then flood the market all at once with rare stuff. Maybe to keep a steady supply flow? I don't know.
  16. I just want to say that I miss having hands for feet like a big ape. I guess they would look weird without a bowlegged gorilla stance. Other than that it seems fine, almost all the stuff I asked for when suggesting an animal pack was put in. Four of my characters eagerly await their update.

    We can grab an enhancement slotted in a power and drag it to the "trashcan" to get rid of them. So let us drag the enhancement to another enhancement in the same power in order to combine them.

    Maybe they are trying to bring back the old-timey fashion of their forefathers.
  20. If everything (practically) causes collateral damage they could just reduce the amount of inf we get for every kill, it would amount to the same thing.

    And besides, why would villains care whether they cause collateral damage?
  21. Other outdoor maps and not to mention zone maps don't seem to have this problem so we have to wonder; what's so special about these maps that make them cause more lag than usual?

    Even something that is only slightly broken is still broken.

    That's right. So there's something for the Incarnates and something for the lowbies. Everyone should be happy.
