Primal

Oh feel free, I'm always open to new knowledge, and to be corrected when I'm wrong, however slightly.

...This sounds sarcastic, even with the smiley. It's not though.

Iaido.

Actually, I'll add that one to my list too. Remember that one Breath of Fire game with the Dog Swordsman? Or Swordsdog I guess. Anyway, he'd draw the blade slightly, flash through the enemy, then reappear back in the line-up sheathing his sword. Awesome.

I'm just gonna say it, and hope nobody thinks I'm interested in debating it yet again: Martial Arts with Dual Pistol Melee. Hand strikes, a kick or two, a couple of ranged attacks, and a pistol-whip or two. I'm cool with Dual Pistols just for Blasters and Corruptors, ecstatic even, but this is a daydream list.

Some sort of Aikido-style or Parrying secondary for all melee types. Essentially SR with a twist. Tough to animate in a way that'd be at all satisfying.

Staff Melee

Energy Blade. Lethal and Energy, with a few pure-Energy ranged blasts. Ever played FFVII? Remember Cloud's Blade Beam Limit Break? I want that here.

Teleport Melee. Very much want. We get a couple of these now, which I applaud, but I want a whole set of it. Some sort of Speed Melee set would be a good place, actually, could have some teleport strikes in there with regular hits and kicks.

Clown MMs, dangit! Or go Circus MM with Jesters and such. I want my very own Carnies!

Harumph, goes to show how much I can trust my memories.

Coyote has alwas been there. Well, at least as long as I've been playing. <--- Though I seem to recall him being called Kyotee or something at one point, but can't swear to that part.

People still ask about the Lost in KR. Heard a Broadcast a couple of days ago.

I had a Fire/Stone Tanker, but I only got to play with non-fear-inducing Burn for 2 levels before it was smacked down hard. I can see why it was.

I had an AR/Devices "back then", rolled for concept purposes I promise. Smoke Grenade was corrected when she was a level away from it, so I couldn't tell you anything about it then. The other issues that combo had however, eventually killed my interest anyway. (She was later rerolled as Archery/Energy.)

Yeah, but I want the box, it comes with a "free" month (i.e. $15 worth) and then you get the code for $5. Did that with the Mac pack and it was a good deal.

I see in the other thread people wondering the same thing. Hmm, I'll check physical stores here tomorrow. I'm probably the only player around here, lol.

Hmm, I want to buy the AE box, which comes with the free month AND the code for the Magic pack (or Cyborg, but I already have that). Am I missing where this is available? I'm completely dense and blind at times.

Or is the box not out yet? Online that is...or is it ONLY in stores?

Wow. That needs to be made into a motivational poster.

It's just begging for Castle to nerf it, but...done.

Or perhaps this.

Enemy AI does not handle DoT damage well, at all, especially if it's lengthy. I've long noticed that enemies hit with toxic, as well a SLOW-burn fire power (i.e. from the Arsonist Thug) are quite likely to flee no matter how many hp they have left. Some factions are worse than others too...Snakes are all cowardly, as are Longbow and Trolls. Freaks are well-known for their skittishness, and I guess that kinda does fit for them.

Same goes for potent debuffs. Poison MMs can vouch for that, as can Dark Miasma and Rad users. Thankfully those sets have slows available as well, which most people take (so they may not notice otherwise).

My new Widow, who does a whole lot of toxic, just assumes that every enemy is going to run and tries to deliver damage in such a way that chasing is minimized. ("Okay, Snake WILL run, so hit 'em twice with weak attack, and save the strong attack for when they try to take off.") And then I keep that Blackwand handy.

No need to be verbose here. I approve wholeheartedly. You're okay, devs and NCSoft, no matter what people say about ya.

...My God. Let the doomcrying begin.

I don't have any problem with it myself. I'm just saying...hoo boy, others WILL.

And btw, I plan to opt in.

Some people swallow the hook, others the line too, some even get to the sinker. Then there are those who jump directly into the boat, start the grill, and set the table.

Oh, yes indeed. I'm laughing far harder at the people frothing than the original joke, and it really was lulz-worthy. The devs and all the other NC people must be reading through this thread and simply HOWLING.

For me it was the part about how people building their own PCs "forget" the speakers. Until then I was totally buying it.

FREEEEEEEEEM!

As I said elsewhere, honestly my only beef with this round of PP is the lack of Mace, SS, and Axe for Scrappers. Hopefully we'll see those in the future. I have a concept that could work with Fire Melee, but frankly am not all that thrilled with it.

Storm Corruptors though, those are pretty sweet. Kudos for that.

Make it a psi blade!

If there's a Psi Blade in the Blaster secondary somewhere, I hereby swear to claim sudden illness here at work, head straight home, and camp some names. Because di-ZAMN.

Also, MMs getting Storm? Anybody else already trying to cobble together an explanation for comboing that with...anything?

Bravo, I say. Bravo.

Recluse's pose is what wins it.

This is worth breaking my silence, I think.

GLEE. JOYGASM. MINDLESS GIBBERING. STORM CORRUPTORS.

That is all.

I was sorta on the fence about the deal until I saw this post.

Bought and paid for without a second thought. Dangit, Mantid...no, actually, I thank you.

Oh, and that rice-throwing emote is SO getting binded with Placate. And a few other powers too.

I feel for those who will be stuck working all day during this time. I used to have a job like that, and just a couple of years back too. Of course I got several days off during the week, but Fri-Sun it was 11-11.

I'll be working on my sub-22 characters all weekend. I expect my dad to sucker me into helping him Saturday (the perils of living in the same town as your parents), but Fri and Sat night, plus all day Sunday, should be enough time to get at least a few of them out of the miss-miss-out-of-end hell that is the teens. I despise the teen levels in Co*, honestly detest them.

It wouldn't work here, true, but imagine this game if we could make our own decisions about whether our Super (or Meta, or just Human) was good, evil, or amoral. A balance nightmare to be sure, but intriguing.

Heh, it's an extremely semantic sort of argument in general. That one in particular seems grounded in the determination to be a victim. There's simply no debating such a position.

...'course, I haven't checked out the Forum Games section in quite a while.
