Sunstorm, I guess a big question here is: how willing are you to modify Dark Misma should it be proliferated to controllers?

Additionally: does the "if we give dark assault they will also want dark misma (or viseversa) also means you acknowledge the desire for electric control for dominators?

i think the other thing is how can they arrange it so that Dark control is a different experience than say a dark/dark/dark defender which can has cones for immobilzes, stuns and fear , an aoe phase shift, as well as a single target hold and even a pbaoe stun. thats a lot of control for a defender. thats not even including all the control that the dark servant brings with it.

Sunstorm: you bringup some interesting and fairly logical points there.
heres the thing though: the reason a lot of folks want some more dark type powers where there are none (dark miasma secondary for controllers for example) is for that extra bit of control. its one of the reasons i love my earth/storm controller so much. his damge output is low but he can control most situations in a variety of ways and that helps keep it interesting.

I Took an Energy/Electric Brute to 46 mainly soloing (EVERY mission, every contact) and the odd time i did team i typically got my butt handed to me. i built this brute with fitness, Flight, fighting, and medicine.

A few things i noticed:
1- Conserve power is crap and Power sink is awesome.
2- between power sink and lightning field i could keep minions drained of end.
3- while the minions and lts were drained i could then use aid self easily.
4- the lack of a self heal really hurts electric armor in larger fights.

i deleted the 46 nrg/elec and have rerolled it as a dark/elec.
i'll probably roll an elec/dark tank as well.

hell i keep hoping they'll release the old storm kick as a vet reward.
y'know for those of us that remember it as it was lol.

while i think i will like being able to spawn missions set for 8 solo, maybe its the cynicism in me .... but does anyone else think this might also be nerf bait dangling before us?

DEV: "hmmm we seem ot have an abnormal number of Electric/electric tanks soloing the Dreck map, Nerf them to hell i say!"

nicely done, might have to make a theme group sometime.

also, i loved the Animaniacs version With Slappy Squirrel

Oh, and of course, I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it'll be per-costume, since that's how Weapon Customization works, and would allow similar flexibility (multi-characters unite!).

(Also, bump. )

i was just wondering the same thing myself.
different power fx/colorings per costume would be superfraggintastic but it might be more work then the devs want/need to deal with in getting i16 out the door.
still i'm hopefull.

probably Nemesis .. .that guys always behind everything.

i swear, i'm gonna win the lottery, buy the building next to the Paragon studios and whack golf balls at their windows from the roof everytime they tease us about having the info....

The clockwork from Neuron and Anti-matter probably.

Can Posi just NOT do the interview next time and save us all the time to read:
"no comment"
"I can't talk about that yet"
"we'll make an announcement about that soon"\
"no we're not working on that at the moment as theres more interesting things i can't talk about right now that we are working on. but i can't talk about them."

it depends on to what degree we can customize the powers cosmeticly.
well we pick a prevailant color for our characters that everything filters through?
will we be able to choose a seperate color for either power set?
could we even reprogram each and every powers color and special effect seperately?

and will we get a primary and secondary color on powers the same as we do with costumes?

i know on my Invul/SS tank i'd love t ocompletly turn off all vfx.

where as on an energy/rad corruptor i have i'd love to make the blasts red/black and the rad purple/blue.

ummmmm ....
please dont toy with me like that ....
its not nice.

still cool pic. me want!

hey better report Ouroboros, Newspaper/Scanner, infinite mission contacts and Task Force contacts too.
they're repeatable content which seems to be the definition of farming these days.

ah what else ....
Lern 2 play <check>
get an SG <check>
go wai troll! <check and check>

back in i1 if you landed jsut right after dropping out of fly you could slide around on the ground, then they fixed it, added some sfx and sold it back to us as part of the COH dvd edition.

personally i find it better to slot for defense first in invincibility then for to hit buffs. dont forget you also get another to hit buff in Rage at 28.

on my final build i found HO's better suited to these slottings than IO sets.

y'know what would be an amazing graphical update?
working mouths and fingers.

yeah i miss a lot of the old posters too.
i haven't seen the Clintoian around in a while.

seems like lately the amount of daily posts are what got posted Nightly back then ....

and yeah i remember the Tanker/scrapper debates back before Scrapper caps were lowered and Regen was King.

i prefer CoB or City of Beaches.
it certainly explains 1/2 of the Villain story arcs and why a lot of Hero contacts refuse to give me their cell number, or even take my calls when i need to talk to them after i've finished all their tasks.

on my 2nd crash, Midnighter club, villianside appears to be a no go.
i tried going in and it crashed, file checked and loaded the same character up and it loaded into the midnighter club and promptly crashed back out.

hell, i'd settle of a general idea of where the new TF contact is ...

F5, crap .... F5, dang... F5, grrrrr..... F5, sigh... F5, c'mon, C'MON! F5, hrmmmmm....F5, crap .... F5, dang... F5, grrrrr..... F5, sigh... F5, c'mon, C'MON! F5, hrmmmmm....F5, crap .... F5, dang...
