  1. Err...I think you meant "Fallacy", not "Phallacy". I dare not elaborate on the problems with it.
  2. Hero Stats.

    Run it while you play, it'll log your powers.

    Also, I think I will have my Psi/Something Brute/Scrap be a renegade Longbow Agent, I don't have one of those yet.
    Why not a Something/Psi Tank? or a Psi/Something Stalker?

    Heroic Patrons!

    Since it's been less than three months, I don't think it counts as a necro...

    But, with the new pools coming out (Sorcery, and the leaked "Worce of Fill" set), I honestly think the idea of new Patrons might not be so far-fetched. In fact, it could be closer than ever before! I hope...

    A Nunchuk set in and of itself would be worthy of nerd squee.

    Nah, I think most things should have a solo equivalent, but some things need a team.

    I disagree. I think teaming should be encouraged and rewarded, but not required. We all know what happens when teaming becomes required for something.
  8. You know, for all the grief people give States, they tend to forget, there would be no City of Heroes if not for him. Yeah, he made a lot of sketchy design choices, but he's still become a bit of a Scapegoat Creator. [/devilsadvocate]
  9. Thumbs up on the "Dev Appreciation Day". Also, it's funny how much fixation the world at large has on [FANTASY MMO], considering CoH actually predates it somewhat (Released in April 24, while [FANTASY MMO] was released a few months later in November). I assume you can figure out what I mean by [FANTASY MMO].
  10. Well, if you're some normal mook, or a random civilian, would you be able to tell the difference between a normal 50 and an Incarnate? I get that it's silly and oversimplifying, but people tend to use labels. That still doesn't excuse it, but it goes a long way towards explaining it. Do you see people in movies stop to say "Three hundred forty-five Nazi soldiers, with ranks ranging from Recruit Private (85%) to Lance Corporal (~1%), approaching from a heading of one hundred thirty-five degrees at a speed of approximately eight knots!", they say "A crap-ton o' Nazis comin' in from the North-East!"
  11. Why stop at Origins? We could have all sorts of individual pools relating to given archetypal characters:

    Bionics: Melee Attack, Force Field Ally Buff, +DMG toggle (comes with a +def FF toggle), +Regen/Recovery Clicky

    Energy Being: Narrow Daze cone, Ally +End/Recovery|Enemy -End/Recovery, Energy Run(Hasten Clicky), DoT Aura

    etc.

    If it's only to that one power, that'd make it waaaaay too situational. And what if you didn't take that first power? (BTW, did you try slotting in some yellow enhancements? just one or two SOs can do a lot.)
  15. So...a +ToHit? Seems like a good idea.

    Possible Accolades:

    Engineer (w/ Architect): EMP gun: Weak Energy DMG, Chance to stun, extra DMG on machines.

    City Contractor (w/ City Official): Small chance for single merit reward drops on mission completion.

    Base Repair Specialist (w/ Monitor Duty): Increased Prestige gains in SG Mode.

    Prolly some others...

  18. The way I see it, this would probably be like combining sorcerers and wizards in D&D (3.5...4e is icky!). The two have rather similar stats, identical spell lists, and mostly vary in weapon proficiency and how they cast their spells. I can imagine the annoyance some people might have at playing a sorcerer in a campaign for years, and hearing "Okay, Fredley, you are now a wizard."

  20. I always remember who gives me stuff.

    ...you know, they could probably get away with selling the account perks of the DVD collectors edition on the Market, could they not? And possibly temporarily re-releasing the "Hero Gear" kit? Please? 8-t <--(pouty face w/ puppy eyes)
