Hm. Maybe I'll design a set just for fun. If I do though, I'll go with the more plausible humanoid dragons. *Taps his chin* Question is, do I have enough to go on? I THINK I do...but the next question is, all in like Demon summoning, or more regimented like everyone else? Hmmm.

Actually after I hit 32 my medic pretty much stopped running up into melee. He also seems to have a better response time in healing then most of my other healing minions, but that might just be me. On the other hand my arsonist STILL likes to go punch things with the brawler. It just takes him a little longer to get there now!

Side note, I love my medic, suicidal at first or not.

These are the other potential Officers. Might also be interesting to have them be second and third summons. I'll fiddle with the damage numbers later, they feel a bit high at the moment. First up the potential Grenadier.

Grenadier powers ((Wields a grenade launcher))

Anti-personel grenade- ((Damage light, recharge fast)) ((7 points of lethal damage on level 1, 21 points of lethal damage on level 50, 1.5 second activation, 5 seconds recharge time))

Web Grenade- ((3.00 magnitude hold on target for 8 seconds, -50% recharge speed for 12, -50% fly and run speed for 12 seconds on target, 30 second cooldown))

Riot Upgrade

Incendiary grenade-((Moderate damage over time, recharge moderate)) ((3 smashing and 5 ticks of 2 fire damage at level 1, 5 smashing and 5 ticks of 5 fire damage at level 50, 15ft AoE, 2 second activation time, 6 second recharge time))

Frag Grenade-((7 smashing and 11 lethal damage on level 1, 12 smashing and 20 lethal damage at level 50, 20t AoE radius, 2 second activation time, 12 second cooldown))


Assault Upgrades

And the Sniper.

Single round-((Damage light, recharge fast)) ((5 points of lethal damage on level 1, 20 points of lethal damage on level 50, 1.5 second activation, 5 seconds cooldown))
Leg Shot- ((7 lethal damage at level 1, 25 lethal damage at level 50, 2 second activation time, 8 second cooldown, 60% chance for a 30% speed reduction on target for 5 seconds.))

Head Shot- ((15 lethal damage at level 1, 42 lethal damage at level 50, 4 second activation time, 20 second recharge time, 70% chance to disorient the target for 5 seconds))

Edited-Dropped the numbers on the Grenadiers explosives, upped the recharge time on explosive charges.
Edited-Dropped the pistol overall for Grenadier, replaced pistol shots with grenade rounds.

Decided to use the PPD Shell instead of the Hardsuit, it still matches up with the solid shell theme I had going. I'll add it to the original post shortly.

Request PPD Shell- Recieve clearance for a PPD Shell unit. These awesome but costly suits are reserved for major conflicts against Paragon City's most fearsome foes.

Energy Punch- ((Moderate Smashing/energy damage, long recharge)) ((6 smashing and 3 energy damage at level 1, 30 smashing and 13 energy damage at level 50. 1 second activation time, 16 second cooldown, 30% chance for a 2.00 magnitude for 4 seconds.))

I can't answer all of these, but I can tell you that the medics healing abilities are mediocre at best. It heals for a decent amount, but it's cooldown is twenty seconds. It's good for being a grunt, but you won't be relying on it. I still love it, tho'.

Bit late here, but my one complaint about demons stems from Abysal reconstruction. I'd much rather the ember demon wait until SOMEONE needed the healing, instead of just using it everycooldown. Other then that nitpick its a great set.

Weird, I didn't notice the numbers the first time. Keep in mind that it's an HoT, its meant to be a supplimental heal. That being said, it'll be healing for over five hundred over time with enhancements, and close to eight hundred if they have that buff on them. It'll be less useful in a pinch, but a lot more useful, well, over time. I'll take it for fights where my boss henchman is taking moderate amounts of damage, but not huge damage all at once.

Question. I know for robots that damage spike is mainly in groups from burn patches, but is that what bumps Thugs up too, since the Arsonist has a smaller version of it? Or is it just that stacking leadership brings them up past most everyone else?

Yeah, pretty sure we all went through that "WHY DO YOU KEEP DYING?!" phase with the arsonist. Invest in manuevers, and boost the defensive properties of both it and your enforcers. Beyond that move to orders can help. Trust me, eventually it pay's off. He starts to get better mid-twenties, then you get your 32 upgrade and he goes insane. It's fun to watch.

Double post, did some minor editing. Probably add in possible player damage values later.

Just a few suggestions. First is more of a rule: Follow the presets. Three attacks. One fast recharge, one long recharge high damage, and one AoE/Special. Second, Mercs have already got rifles covered. Maybe silenced pistols instead?

At most it will decrease the resummon time. Minions themselves aren't effected by recharge reduction, so unfortunately that 4 minute timer on LRM will remain 4 minutes.

Thank you for the reply. I just wanted to make sure I hadn't done something screwy. *Laughs*

And a suicidal zombie eh?
