This started off as a good thread idea.. Still is, but Great Uncle Jonathan's Corn Cobb Pipe has it gone insane.. Oh wait.

I should have just taken Dinah's idea and gone with a good old skool hip-hop thread...

Huh, this still works? Interesting... Oh I'm typing.
I've been gone too long to throw any kind of argument at anything, so I'll say this..
Let us have pie. -

Sorry. -

I miss everyone, real life is making playing pretty difficult for me & when I do get on I see a lot of new names & not a lot of familiar ones.
When did Angie leave?
I miss Bronx as well. -
Quote:Ahh yes, I forgot about that.. I really do need to play Villainside more. Thank you..Extremely unlikely it will keep Tenebrous Tentacles. Soul Mastery has Soul Tentacles, which is Tenebrous Tentacles in everything except name, in every other respect it is mechanically identical.
I'm betting it will be replaced with Dark Obliteration.
I wish they'd keep it in there.. I love the dark blast tentacles rather than the shiny/girly GW version. But, eh, that's just me. & Soul Tentacles does kind of have seniority over TT, having been available to blasters longer. -
Sweet Jebus! I've been gone too long.. I have lost touch.

I'm sure everyone has seen this by now; if you haven't enjoy, wipe the drool from your mouth when you're done, & type a reply.
What's everyone thoughts?
I, myself, am caught up on dark blast & poison moving to some ATs that I am familiar enough with to play effectively so I will love & cherish it.
Thermal & Fire blast finally making their way to defenders is awesome & I'm sure the server will be crawling with fire trowing defenders.
I'm kind of "eh" on War Mace & Battle Axe for scrappers, though I may roll a battle axe scrapper.. Mmm choppy. (Maybe Horus is more excited.) It's a smart move, not much left for the devs to port over to scrappers except Energy Melee, Super Strength (Not happening.. IMO), & Ice Melee.. I guess I could've said Stone Melee.
Tankers getting Super Reflexes, yet another nice move for the devs. With the set going to tank values, it should be pretty easy to soft cap. Plus the fact of SR having ~90% (? It's been awhile) resistance to defense debuff. Martial Arts is going for thematic reason alone, I think. But, it's kind of cool nonetheless.
Corruptors getting psychic blast? I think they've been asking for it since CoV, so the devs finally caved. Might be a nice set, I'm just not into the psy blasting business.. Loved to be though if someone could get me excited enough.. Maybe the corruptor is just what I need.
Defenders & Controllers getting Poison. Awesome, I've always wanted a poison toon, but I'm really bored on MM's, thus I really didn't get too far.
Brutes are getting Katanas, Broadswords, & Regeneration? Well, this sounds especially tasty, but I'm kind of wondering why Tanks haven't received the power of holding their broadswords yet. Katanas will be a nice addition to Brutes: Fast animations & serious damage. Broadswords are little slower to me, but War Mace & Battle Axe are already available, so I'm still interested.
Stalkers get Ice Armor, but not Ice Melee. Well one piece of the puzzle is nice right? Are the stalker fans happy? I mean, it sounds like it'd be fun. stealthy & deathly blocks of ice.
Now I know what you're thinking, "GATT, you didn't say anything about Energy Aura!"
I know, I saved it for last:
Not only is it going to Scrappers, they are fixing it! Hurray!!! Sorry, if you're not as excited about that as I am, I just love the thought of energy aura being, ya'know, "Good to okay" to play. Love the concept behind the armor. Just saying.
Now it's your turn to weigh in, Champion. -
Quote:I'm loving the fact of Dark/Dark blasters. I've wanted to use dark blast since I started, but nothing panned out for me. One of the problems I'm having trouble with is seeing Shadow Maul in the secondary. I mean, I loved Shadow Maul as much as any Dark melee scrapper. But do we want to port that over to blasters & have them stuck bipping & bapping for 2-3 seconds, that could mean death early in the levels (Not to mention if it misses, I mean everyone has used Sands of Mu early on & paid the piper)..This is probably close, but not exact. Synapse said in the announcement that Dark Manipulation "would be a combination of Dark Melee, Defender Dark Blast, and Dark Miasma," then they mentioned in the U-Stream that it will include three melee attacks (Smite, Shadow Maul, and Midnight Grasp) and Dark Pit from Defender Dark Blast. I don't know how likely it is that we will see any powers from Dark Armor, despite Cloak of Darkness being quite fitting.
Unless Shadow Maul would come late, unlikely to me. I see it where Bone Smasher is placed, Lv10. So, I may be completely wrong here, but I'm going ahead & saying Shadow Punch & Smite will be the melees, with Midnight Grasp in/around Lv38.
I'll weigh in on Dark Regeneration, Tenebrous Tentacles, & Life Drain:
Dark Regeneration? No. It's a pipe dream.
Tenebrous Tentacles? 50/50 shot here. I love the whole feel of the attack when I had it on my rad/dark defender, I can only imagine it with blaster damage. But with the devs combining Torrent & Night Fall (Smart move IMO) we may not see it. But then again there are cone heavy sets.
--Side Note: I find it more likely that Dark Obliteration will be somewhere in the primary set the more I think about it. Basing this off of Dark's lack of targeted AoE in Corruptor & Defender form. Which could possible knock Tenebrous Tentacles out of the set. My thoughts: Keep both :P--
Life Drain: I'm hoping they keep it in the primary, that'd be sweeeet. -
Congratulations you two, I miss teaming with the dynamic duo.

Belated birthday wishes to you Cobalt.

Hmm.. This intrigues me quite a bit, indeed... AHH! Oh sorry, I was thinking again. I'll see what I can do to be there XD

Good luck and don't forget about dear ol' Champion.

Hello Champion! As some of you may be aware of, Demon Keeper (or also known as DK) & I are brothers. Well I thought I'd post something for him since we've both been absent for sometime now.
DK is taking a hiatus & has deactivated his account (the older of the two accounts), I noticed he didn't post a farewell, knowing he isn't good at it. But I'm hoping he comes back soon, he is busy with school & with summer here he may reactivate & hop on.
As for me? I'm still around, I'm currently looking for a job to pay for school next semester XD, but I may hop on & see what this i20 stuff is all about since I'm still shaky on incarnates anyway.
See everyone in game!

Sorry I missed the party! Happy Birthday Witty!
