I read search comments so that's one out the window.

Most people, and by most I mean like 90% or more, do not set their flags for the search window simply because they forget or don't know about it. People set to "not seeking" are often very interested in joining a team, that's another gone.

The thing about the request channel really only applies in the hive during a raid...at all other times the request channel is used pretty much as intended or as a way to advertise SGs. Huzzah there goes another one.

Bascially there are TONS of wierd/stupid/ignorant things to list off but the ones you listed are kind of silly and aren't really the ones worth mentioning.

I simply cannot believe people's panties are all bunched up over Chain Induction.

Has anybody used it in big herds? How many targets does it it? If it's not all that many I just don't get the fuss. Losing a bit of XP from 4 or 5 mobs in a big herd is not world ending. I honestly cannot believe how pissy everybody is.

And whoever said they should get new engineers is both ignorant and very self-important.

One way to fix the xp leeching on Chain Induction would be to remove the hp damage.

I think it would be effective as a 'bouncing' short-duration (4 seconds?) Hold or Knockdown power, if paired with a useful additional component such as a defense, regeneration or recovery debuff.

That combined with a slight boost in it's damage to your initial target may be ok...but I think they (the devs) want to keep Elec/ with more AoE type stuff than single target stuff.

FYI: Electric Shields' Grounding Power will have Immobilize and Knockback Protection added. The set will still not have a Heal power or HP Buff power.

I'm still down for kissing him, dude or not........

I just find it strange that "Havoc Punch" isn't really a punch at all.

Charged Brawl should use brawl's animation and Havoc Punch should use Jab's...but I'm about 95% or more sure that they'll never change the animations.

Oh, and you people arguing about Grounded, you do realize that -Jump and -Fly make no thematic sense, right? "I do not think that word means, what you think it means."

[/ QUOTE ]

You do realize the power is called "Grounded" meaning "in contact with the ground to harmlessly transport electricity to the ground." How is -jump and -fly not in line with the theme?

Those are all (mostly) PvP concerns and be honest, PvE is by a large magin the biggest part of this game.

Also, there have been more than a few well-written posts in support of somethign along these lines, and the opposition is an angry, self-important, mal-content who is more concerned with attacking the other posters, not their arguments.

Your e-tough attitude is not impressive and it's not having the effect you desire. I don't think you're smart or tough. I, in fact, am rather sure you're niether.

The toggle provides an option. You can take that to protect you from KB, or you can do the hover/TP or Accro thing. Leaving it as is means to stand up you have to do one of those two.

the suggestion is that it only has the -jump and -fly, not the -speed

[/ QUOTE ]

Two things...this would affect speed as you can't jump away...even if you don't have SJ or Combat Jumping. This would also lock people more into picking up a non-leaping and non-flying travel power which...is one of the main reasons people are miffed about the set to begin with. They don't want to get locked into Leaping Pool.

[/ QUOTE ]

You're trying to tell us that a toggle locks people into certain powers, but it's fine that by not changing the power we would be locking people into SJ. Good logic.

[/ QUOTE ]

No he's saying that you can't fix one problem by simultaneously opening up the exact same problem somewhere else. He didnt say it was fine, just that this is not the solution.

People are miffed that they have to take Leaping or Flying to get Knockback protection. They dont like being locked into Hover or Leaping. You can't fix it by giving them a power with -fly and -jump which would effectively lock them *out* of Flying and Leaping and into Teleport.

[/ QUOTE ]

It's a toggle, if you'd like to travel turn it off. As it is, if you want to stand up you take accro or hover/tp. With the toggle you can take any travel you want and avoid working up to accro.

Nobody said anything about -speed Pink. But it'scalled *grounded*...it just makes so much sense to be -fly and -jump. And if you're going to have it be -fly and -jump is has to be a toggle, and putting knockback in it also just *makes sense*

It doesn't clone the stone power, I'm not advocating adding the +regen at all.

I'd take it without the +regen...I just would like to not be falling down alot, and I really dislike super jump

Not that I'm a fan of adding toggles but how could you possibly be grounded if you're flying or jumping.

Grounded really sounds like a toggle power to me, and making a toggle would help balance adding the knockback resistance.

Plus, if this becomes a toggle, you don't have to toggle accrobatics...even trade (or close to, depending on end cost)

just add +Res Knockbac, -Fly, -Jump to grounded =\ plzthxkluvubai

Well I agree choices would be great. (That's always the case)

But if we get no choice (as we won't), I think as it is is perfect for villains...no sissy blues or yellows. Don't get me wrong, I loved my elec/elec blaster and his blue lightning...but it's not right for a brute.

i would've liked yellow

but the red color isn't all that great. Would have much rather seen blue.

You, sir, are on drugs!

I saw somebody use it. It looked very very cool and seemed to be putting quite a hurt on the good guys. Kind of a giant ball of electricity blowing up right in front of you.

I just have to say that the instant I turned my electric armor on I had a total joygasm. It is everything I could have dreamed in every way. The look, the sound...god it just makes me happy to be alive!

Elec/Elec is the reason I came back to CoH/CoV. I saw it coming in I7 and reactivated immediatly and I'm not going to be regretting that decision.

My only saddness is that my partner in crime cannot be an elec/elec corruptor with me
