    Besides it would be to much trouble combining them, They might break something that kill off all Scrappers and Brutes and no one wants that.
    ...Are you trying to die? I don't care, but if you ever call any archetype "wimpy", that's just asking for trouble man. And I've actually played Scrappers and Stalkers (Esp. after Stalker changes) that are able to outlast their tanky counterparts simply because of raw damage output.

    So, a palette swap?

    Good to know, Arcanaville. Do you have any tips on how to improve this build?
  6. Alright, here's my attempts at a defense-based build. I tried to also slot in a little knockback for when things get messy. I also found something odd: When I have Power Boost used for the calculations, it increases my defenses for some reason...hrm...

    ...Or, we could combine those ideas and just give it automatically at about 20-25ish? It shouldn't be that hard to do, unless the way the code is set is way different than I would guess. (Yeah, yeah, blah blah SCR...blah blah flowchart...)

  10. Like I said, a cap could probably be set. Or it might just be flagged not to stack.

    He could be Energy Assault/Invulnerability/Weapon Mastery...
  12. Okay, specifically I think the following main sets could use absorb:

    Ice Armor/Cold Mastery/Ice Mastery/Chill Mastery: Probably have the +MaxHP on Hoarfrost be fully or partially converted into Absorb, doesn't change its slotting much if at all.

    Stone Armor/Stone Mastery: Do the same with Earth's Embrace.

    Cold Domination: Frostwork, same as above.

    Force Field: I think this should become FF's new thing. Reduce the defense buffs by a fair amount and add AoT (Absorb over Time) to most of the defensive powers. And for Pete's sake, make Detention field a dang normal hold. If having unimpeded AoT would be too much, set a cap.
  13. I actually think it'd suit Ice Armor best as far as melee defenses. I'd really like to see it added in to Force Fields for Controllers/Corruptors/Defenders.
  14. I kinda wish they had given Miss Liberty a new TF of her own, instead of recycling Grandpa's. And then put the STF in Ouro for suicidal people to take on with as few people as they please. It'd still award "Statesman's Pal", just like the original Posi still awarded its badge in Ouro. maybe make it something centered around redeeming Recluse, and (probably) failing miserably?

    Or a drop shot?
  16. I actually hope SSA2 gets centered on Faultline. It's a cool zone, and I honestly hope they finish rebuilding.
  17. I actually like Hybrid. It's good for when I get into a fight above me with my blaster. Just toggle it, start blasting everything to hell, rampage through the rest of the mission.
  18. Well, you see, each species has a well, and it's a little shaky as to whethere Rikti are still technically the same species...By normal definition, they would have to be able to reproduce viably with their most recent ancestors, **** sapiens sapiens. If they can, they'd just be **** sapiens rikti; otherwise, they'd be considered **** rikti, i.e., a separate but closely related species. Note that I say "reproduce viably". Many closely related species can crossbreed (The Liger, pretty much my favorite animal), but the offspring they produce tend to be infertile, especially males. Thus, in order for Rikti to be considered the same species as Humans, they would have to be able to crossbreed with a normal Human, and the offspring produced would have to be viable. Luckily, genetic tests can be run instead.

    EDIT: Apparently, the Human genus is a censored word, likely due to its more pejorative vernacular use.

    Technically, since technology is still increasing in speed, then we know it's not yet at light speed, because that's the cosmic speed limit, and we have yet to develop working FTL devices.
