    For the same reason that you build armored space staions with exposed exhaust ports

    A standard boss - they need to be able to fight up to 8 people at once, so making them be the same power level as just one of those 8 would be stupid.
    And if he was only as powerful as one player, just imagine the "gimmicks" he'd be using when he had to fight 8
  3. Twinshot's 3 arcs also work the same way - you have to flashback to them in the right story sequence

    Spandex is the main thing used for gymwear, so it's suitable for any other physical activity too.

    If the wound is on the face, would the salt be applied with a slap?

    You can do both - the game treats all financial commitments of $15 the same, and give one reward token for every sum of $15 dollars spent - it doesn't matter if you spend it on 1 month sub time, or on Paragon points to spend in the market - it's still $15, and every time that you spend that amount, you get a token.

    An inner circle of very powerful, very dangerous and very evil villains with their own agendas and plots.

    A network of female psychics recruited at a young age to serve the dictator.

    A corrupt and thuggish police force.

    A "survival of the fittest" doctrine amongst the playable section of the governing organization, with betrayal, double-crossing and brute force as acceptable ways of advancing through the ranks.

    A mad scientific genius operating semi-independently form his own personal power base.

    A failed super soldier experiment based on genetic modification, with the results left to roam beneath the streets.

    Intense and open rivalries between the various sub-groups of the ruling organization that frequently spill over into violence.

    The widespread and frequent use of torture by the security forces.

    A tightly controlled media, with any journalists who step out of line being targeted by the dictatorship.

    Teachers who step out of line are also targeted by the dictatorship.


    But at least the streets are cleaner than in the Rogue Isles.

    Seems like a pretty low success rate then

    Well, Tyrant's doing a pretty good Recluse tribute act - cleaner streets are about the only major difference between their two dictatorships

    It's under the control of the DE, and the lichen links it to them.

    Praetorian Stefan Richter might disagree with that view
  13. If they do a rolling zone upgrade for the game, starting with Atlas and Mercy, then the old arcs will be replaced with newer more dynamic ones.
  14. These are usually at a bad time for me
  15. According do the devs at the Player Summit, we should find out for sure in I22

    EDIT: Or do you mean that something leaked with the patch today?
  16. I hope the new war mace option is called "Hammer Time"

    I wonder if that was a working title for the textures that slipped through to live?
  18. Those promotional pictures make me think that we really do need fire and ice zones that aren't just mission maps
  19. Something else to keep in mind is that the final part will go live in March, which should be around the time I22 goes live, so there could be some kind of link between the end of "Who Will Die" and "Death Incarnate"

    Yes - a very good and exciting one.

    I think it might be the reverse - Hamidon Trial, then Tyrant Trial as the climax - or, as Tyrant has had a mental link with the Hamidon before, they could both be in the same Trial as allies, as our arrival on Praetorian Earth spells the end for both of them, so they might decide to team up to try and save their two empires.

    That's possibly advanced work for some kind of historical pack for early July
  23. It's quite possible that BAB will be recruited into the Phalanx in Part 5, 6 ot 7.
