I tried making a new topic, but the forum keeps eating them!

I've got a Fire/Ice Dom at 32 with Flight, Speed and Fitness pools. I was wondering if anyone had some tips as to where to go with her. Chilling Embrace and Hot Feet are nice, and I was thinking of ditching Frost Breath once I had extra AoEs from an APP, but was sort of torn as to go with Fire or Ice Mastery. Figuring out how to slot for perma is a little tricky, considering I've never done anything but frankenslot for the best bonuses in the past.

So, nothing in the I8 information about any epic archetypes, but check out the wings .

On another note, why is it that when you fight Ms. Liberty, she never uses a sword/dagger, because if you look on the left (her left) side of her belt on the Atlas trainer version of her, you see a dagger-like or a small sword-like weapon, maybe a new powerset to come?

Ms. Liberty carries Excalibur, which was given to her by Hero1 before he travelled to the Rikti dimension to stop them. She is either unwilling or unable to draw the sword to use it, and is 'keeping it safe' until he returns, from what I read.

I guess we just don't agree on this. Let me put this another way, though.

The Peacebringers that wish to lay down the righteous smack on all Warshades - are they allied with, or against Paragon City? Take the Warshades out of the picture entirely for a moment (and yes, I know they aren't), and think of it that way. If the 'rogue Peacebringer' mentality was 'The Freedom Phalanx cannot be trusted, and we must destroy them,' and they were all over bring that stuff down? Sure, I'd be content with them being Villains. But the only part of the 'Hero system' they oppose, is that of the Warshades.

You're not going to find a Peacebringer who wants all the Warshades dead tearing up Atlas Park in a Mayhem Mission, you're not going to find a Peacebringer who wants all the Warshades dead carrying out Arachnos orders to take down the Back Alley Brawler, but you might get a Peacebringer who wants all the Warshades dead working with the Council, on rare occasions, to get hardware they need. I don't think that a whole string of missions in which the villainous Peacebringer is able to work with the Council in every one, while offing invading Kheldians of all types, is all that viable in-game.

A Peacebringer who renounces the 'good side' and goes to work for Arachnos, though. Sure. But the anti-Warshade faction in CoH, I feel, aren't going to do that.

Even still, does that neccisarrily disqualify them as a second potential villainous Kheldian EAT? Some of the best villains in all comicdom have been fighting "evil" and considered themselves to be "good". The fact remains that those rouge Peacebringers are STILL dedicating their lives to fighting good, crime-fighting heroes. Even if those Warshades they're fighting are occasionally somewhat twisted, they're still far from villainous, and in the mythology of this world, as it stands so far, you're either a hero, or a villain.
Sure, they may be fighting the villainous Nictus also, but you know, Heroes only fight villains. Villains regularly fight both heroes AND villains. I can only think of 1 faction in this game that those Rouge Peacebringers could belong to, and they certainly aren't heroes...

The point is, they're not fighting Heroes as such - they're only forced into combat with the Heroic side of the coin when heroes figure out what's going on and try to stop them. If the intention was to beat up on what is good was there, they'd be villains. As such, they're only interested in wiping out the Warshades, as they don't believe that the Nictus could be reformed.

I don't think, and this is just personal opinion, that this splinter sect would go to war with other Peacebringers and Heroes at large to complete their goal - as I said, the ones in all the story arcs, if you read their NPC idle/activation/defeat text, are all on the 'I don't want to fight you, just walk away' side of the fence.

Then again, it's all just opinions.

Hey Jannus, it turns out that the idea of rogue PB's isn't so hard to believe afterall. Upon my recent review of the PB story arcs, it turns out that there are PBs who have gone rogue. But while I did contradict you, I never claimed I was right

Just wanted to add something here.

The 'rogue Peacebringers' in the Kheldian story arcs aren't so much against the Peacebringers themselves, but are instead working towards the destruction of all Warshades, as they don't trust the reformed Nictus as far as they can throw them.

However, they're working with the Council to get ahold of Quantum energy weapons, so that they can blow the Warshades away. It's more of an 'enemy of my enemy is my friend' situation, albeit very poorly chosen on the rogue Peacebringer's part, than the rogue Peacebringers attempting to overthrow Sunstorm and the like. When you beat the rogue Peacebringers up, they generally tend to say something along the lines of being wrong, and occasionally beforehand, some of them say things to the tune of 'Please! Don't try to stop this, we have no quarrel with you!' in the Peacebringer arcs.

(Note, these are bits of NPC dialogue that aren't included in the mission briefings or souvenirs - they're just things that the rogue Peacebringer NPCs say either when idle, alerted to your presence, or when they're defeated.)
