Ninth Cloud

<SORRY IM RETARDED SHOULD HAVE READ FURTHER>

Seems like it could get boring very quickly. I might try this, but there are other ways to get XP fast which don't seem as much of a drone.

I'd like the ability to dual weild rapiers. As it stands on test (I can look at the options, I just cant' actually PLAY), you can have a rapier and a main gauche, but not two rapiers. Please let us have two rapiers!

It may be unconventional, but due to the lightness of a rapier compared to other swords of it's size, it's POSSIBLE, especially in a fantasy/comic book setting!

I honestly want to try this too. Would make for a good laugh once in awhile, just to see how many teams you can get kicked from.

First, friendly tip: This is Player Guides, where people post guides (not answer questions). This should've been in Player Questions, one subforum up from this.

Second: To answer your question, the Arachnos symbol comes from the preorder, along with the special helmet, iirc. You can still get it, I believe, but it's not from 'a dvd that says City of Villains', it's from a CD that says City of Villains Preorder Disk (I believe). If you have that (a friend who got an extra for whatever reason, some game stores might still sell/give away any extras they didn't sell at the time, or if that's what you meant in the first place, etc), you need to 'Upgrade' your PlayNC account with the Preorder Code that came with the disk (again, IIRC) to get the bonuses.

hmm... odd i didn't get the arachnos symbols with my preorder.

Well I expect/hope we will get temp travel powers till lvl 20 just like the villain side, that should make the hollows somewhat tolerable. It's not fair that they can get around faster with a stupid jet pack!

I'm assuming that was sarcasm.

In a related note, Posi had mentioned that there will be a zillion Jetpacks to choose from. I'd guess that jetpacks, wings, and trenchcoats will all be like capes are now ,back options.

Too bad we can't have Wings + Cape or Trenchcoats + Capes... Since they can't even fix the current clipping issues. :/ I want a trenchcoat and scarf dammit!

May I make a suggestion?

Instead of the giant mace, can we get an Arachnos Gun for Stalkers? Drawing out a huge mace looks really funny with my stalker. This would make room for some really neat concepts, since you won't allow Scrappers/Stalkers to have pistols.

All that would be required is for the mace to be changed to a gun, keeping the same powers.

Overall "Sonic Attacks (?)" is a good set. I wonder though, why you decided to change "Sonic Blast" to "Sonic Attacks." Sonic Blast makes perfect sense, just as much as Psychic Blast. Plus, it's kind of weird to be looking at the defender choices and see Sonic Attacks while all the others are named ____ Blast.

I just have a few problems with the aesthetic side of it:

- The colors of the powers and/or buttons should be changed from grey to light blue, or some other color you think would fit. It just becomes a little monotonous after awhile, plus, the inherent and fighting powers have almost the same grey colored buttons.

- The sound effects seemed a little disappointing and a little weird. Animalistic sounds, as much as you'd like them to be don't really fit with what the theme of the set is. They should sound more... um, I guess angelic?? Or at least something that actually sounds like a scream.

- I mentioned this up above, but change Sonic Attacks back to Sonic Blast.
