One AT I've always wanted but understand would be ruddy hard to program (I mean really hard, next to impossible infact under the current engine and would require a lot of work to get going) would be a shapeshifter that gains the powers of the mob types they defeat it would be similar pattern to an MM primary but they would lack a secondary (more on the reasons why later).

1) Personal attack.
1) First form slot.
2) Second personal attack.
6) Build Up (or Aim).
8) Third personal attack.
12) Second form slot.
18) Utility power.
26) Third form slot.
32) Fourth form slot form clickie.

As you defeat foes (perhaps linked to badges) each form slot can be assigned a specific mob form, the tougher the form, the more defeats required. 10 for a minion, 20 for a lt and 30 for a boss. The fourth slot would be an acception, any defeated mob can be put it that slot from minion to AVs/Heroes however it only has a 1 minute duration with a long recharge.

Each form (except the 4th) is a mutally exclusive toggle, like Granite in stone armor, you can't run other armors while it's running, you couldn't run more than one slot at a time. Each toggle could be slotted for acc/dam/end/defense/resistance. Selecting the 'form' for each slot would be a drop down menu of the available forms, the characters model would be replaced ala the Halloween costume temp powers.

So your first slot could be a Damned Hellion boss with access to the powers and hit points of the Damned.

So the shapeshifter would have access Flares, Fireball, Fire breath, Scorch, Incinerate and Combustion with a mild resistance to fire, effecitively turning them into a squishy fire/fire blaster. The enhancements slotting into the toggle would affect the powers used.

The second slot could be a Freakshow tank and decide to 3 slot it for Resistance giving them around 50% resistance to Smashing/Lethal, 60% resistance to cold but still suffer the -30% energy resistance. They would also have access to the powers. Sawblade, Tank Grenade, Cybernetic hammers, Handclap, Dull Pain and Revive.

By now it should be obvious why it's a one power set AT, the primary powerset, with the forms, can function as both a primary AND a secondary.

Yes I realise in order to get this I'd probably have to go create my own MMO but still it would be awesome.

That's like an AT that I thought some years back, only mine is not a shapeshifter but a power stealer (he gains the abities of defeated enemies)

That explains why in the 5 hours that I have been playing no event started.
And me I was guessing if I was ALWAYS in the wrong place and the events didn't show in the chat.

I have been looking for these books and I only found 2 of them (i though they were 3) in Amazon.com.
Any other place where I can buy them, or any chance of re-editing them.

PS: sorry for my bad english, too much time without use it.

Random Flypose annimation when you go flying. For those of us who like a little variety without the bother of using the /flypose command for short hops.

Improved deathscenes for us player. There are so many good animated deathscenes. I would love to see that we players get more then the two animations we got now.

When Cryptic added fly poses, they rotated every ¿5? seconds. People complained and they changed to commands.

List the exploration badges by zone (and labels with the zone's name to separate each group)

I think the delay is there because if several people in the same map start to change continuously their costumes they are creating a constant data stream to the server and to ALL gamers in the zone. That could create lag and slow down the server (imagine: 2 changes/second x 50 gamers = 100 unnecessary and stupid operations/second)

Incarnate is an origin. That means that they should be any AT plus an Incarnate.
Another question: All incarnates have attained their power through the Well of the Furies? Maybe there are other Wells or another way to become Incarnate

We have the battalion incoming, maybe the Incarnates are our hope?

I failed at finding the post, but I remember someone asking to Castle to add debuffs to the watch list on the "real numbers", and Castle answered that they probably will add temp powers to see all the enemies numbers (life, powers, etc)

I was just thinking, when you take the Bane Spider path do you think the story will impliment some form of the Hive-Mind that all Bane spiders have? I mean when fighting a Bane Spider can "access" the thoughts of all his Brother Selfs (as Banes call them....I suppose Sister Selfs too now) to see which of them fought said foe and whether any of your Other Selfs found a weakness that you could exploit.

so do you think that this will be implimented somehow and if so... how

I was thinking that it could be how Banes receive missions but it could easily be their Inherant, like maybe a defence bonus for other banes or arachnos on the team.

what do you guys think

Regards

Spider

I rememeber a dev saying that we would see enemie numbers (powers/dama/acc/def/res/etc) in the future with temp powers. Maybe the Banes have this hability inherently

What about Blade of Chronos....this ties alot of the ideas together?

[/ QUOTE ]
I though in Hand on the idea that we interact with the past to change it. Blade of Chronos sounds too aggressive, violent and not refined for a hero team/SG (it would fit more with a villain group). Plus, if we want extend the team/SG idea to other powersets/ATs it would fit better

[ QUOTE ]
Hand Of Chronos takes my vote as well.
All the others are well too obvious for an SG.

Very interesting choise of words though..
Chronos in ancient and modern greek (apart from the mythological god-titan and later named planet), is the word reffering to "time" in general. Not to mention Aeon which is originated from the greek word reffering to the "eternal"..

Very fitting!You sir, have done your research..or this is some twisted coincidence!

I like mythology (and my friends Google and Wikipedia helped me a little )

[ QUOTE ]
Europa was what I was calling Future Europe, when indivdual countries ceased to exist and it became a superstate....maybe in answer to the disaster that befell America....that originated in the early 21st century....hence the need to travel back in time to prevent it.

However if people are wanting to create 'Supersoldiers' from countries outside of Europe, then I would hate to be exclusionist.

If not Europe then, the world? Earth?

[/ QUOTE ]
At first time i though that was the name of the continent (it writes like that in spanish) but later i though you're english and you could be naming it by the Jupiter's moon or the mythologic Europa
I think that "Hand of Chronos" could be a good, enigmatic name

Costume ideas: http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w...oh/leapers.jpg

"Leapers" from different ages: http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w...h/leapers2.jpg

And 1 question. Why not extend it to a time-travelers SG? The idea it's good enough to include other ATs now we have weapon customisation
