Corrected. And seriously, folks, complaining about "that's all?" What the heck is wrong with you? Do you think Paragon Studios has the ability to stop time and put infinite effort into these things? -
Quote:Sounds like a setup for The Emperor's New Shield.Originally Posted by Rajani Isa
For some reason the following scene went through my head :
"So, this make my shield invisible..."
"Yes"
"But not me..."
"Duh! It's a cloaking device for your shield. Not you"
"I don't see any shield."
"It has an invisibility cloak. Here, let me strap it on."
"I don't feel anything..."
"Well, that's because it has an antigravity generator, very sophisticated." -
Quote:I believe so; or rather, it was their attempt at one. Note the "bubbles" around the blasts. It didn't work right so they modified it into an energy blast set.Originally Posted by Forbin_Project
Correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't the energy set originally a water set when the game was being developed?

By the way, I didn't hear anything about the arena being moved to Atlas from Galaxy.

Quote:I'd still give the edge to Incinerate since as a single target attack you are likely to be using it often against high HP enemies like Bosses and up that you aren't going to be defeating with other powers before the DoT runs out.Originally Posted by Miladys_Knight
Neither. Incinerate is big time single target damage, the only problem is that is an exceedingly long DoT. Combustion is a PBAoE with an exceedingly long animation and an excruciatingly long DoT. The biggest problem with the 2 powers is that you'll use other powers to finish off mobs before these powers finish ticking just so you can defeat the mobs before they un-mez.

Quote:Probably they'd make it immune to + recharge effects.Originally Posted by Mega_Jamie
you mean a power that with 2 TMs on the team wouldn't be very long recharge, <snip>
-
Hmmmm. Here's an idea for a unique power: A very long recharge click power that instantly recharges all your other powers. Or perhaps all of an ally's powers.

Restricting MM is a no brainer. MM is the most unique AT of all whether they are strong or not is out of the question. MM is unique.Ha, I'm reminded of something I saw posted on another forum when a certain other game went Free to Play. Paraphrased, the guy said "I checked it out and saw that they still didn't have an equivalent of Masterminds. %&$@ that! So I went and fired up my old CoX account instead. Yes, the result of <game name withheld> going Free to Play was me subscribing to CoX again."Quote:Originally Posted by Emberly
I think they are holding back masterminds because they are so awesome that F2P players will trample each other in the rush to unlock them

From a functional perspective, Earth/Fire is better I think. The pairing of maximum AoE control with maximum AoE damage. And the -def of /Thorns is rather wasted given how much -def Earth/ already puts out.

Quote:Come to think of it, it would be really cool if they had random powersets like the Flawed Clone in the villainside Defeat Ajax mission.Originally Posted by BrandX
And I like the idea of Summon Duplicates. Doesn't even have to have the same powers, it can be akin to Phantom Army, but the doubles just look like the character.

Bonus wishlisty prediction out of deep left field: I predict one power will summon a temporary pet with the same costume and roughly the same powersets as the summoner. Think "Austin Powers From Five Minutes From Now". EDIT: Doh, someone in another thread beat me to this one.

Quote:In a game with walking trees, there's only a limited difference between the two...Originally Posted by Golden Girl
I think it's actually a giant tree root rather than a tentacle.

Okay so .... seriously... who besides me REALLY hopes we'll be able to run the entire way up the tentacle curled around the building?

Random wild speculation: a long recharge pet summons power that uses the doppleganger tech to summon one or more "temporal duplicates of you from alternate timelines". If they want to make it stand out, that would do it.In other words, like Dark Miasma - which has Dark Servant, a pet summons.Quote:Originally Posted by Roderick
I find that unlikely, OB. It's a Defender Primary, Controller/Corruptor/Mastermind Secondary, which means it's a buff/debuff set.
-
Hmmm, Lazarillo in the Defenders thread on Time Manipulation speculated that one power might be a de-level shift ability that temporarily lowers the level of the enemy. Temporally rewinding them to an earlier level, as it were.

Quote:No, no, it's succubi that do that. They are the natural predators of tentacle monsters. If you ever find a bunch of withered, sucked dry tentacles lying scattered around beware; you're in succubi territory.Originally Posted by Rabid_M
They're what keep the tentacles too terrified to enter the main area.

With nothing beyond the name there's little to go on.

Maybe the energy/goo adapts their look to wherever they show up? Like in Bloody Bay they used the skeletons of the people killed there for their shape, but in Galaxy City they seme to be using the rubble of the ruined buildings to give them their shape?
