    See, again,


    ... which has always been the meaning meant by the devs, regardless of what you may think.

    I have done most of the Arc with a Warshade (Now level 50), and some of it with a PB (Still mid 20s).

    My point is, were the Kheld arcs/back story there before the Kheldians were in game?

    ... so I'm not sure what definition *you* are looking at and saying I'm wrong. Seems their definition fits farily well in with this. Now, if I were saying something about Epic ATs having to be "godmode," which some (incorrectly) have said in the past, you'd have a point.
    I have been giving this some thought and I am still not sure where Memphis_Bill's objections are coming from. The existing EATs didn't really have very much "Epic" in terms of pre-existing story or mission arcs, as I see it, the EAT "Epic" story began with their creation. I see no reason why the Praetorian EAT should have to be different. . .

    I think this response is akin to those who still want the Sybil costumes.

    U h m m m. . . Yeah, that would be me! I have several toons that it would be perfect for!
  4. It's a concept certainly worth exploring. There would have to be more than just a handful of arch-nemesis to make it work, to prevent boredom from repetition with each new toon. Perhaps certain steps/actions/choices along the various mission arcs could be used to spin you off on differing paths. Players with 40+ toons across several accounts would only have to face the same nemesis a few times then.

    I like that your arch-nemesis might even appear in Radio (Broke out of the Zig again!) or Paper (Vows revenge on player) missions, maybe even to replace, or as an alternate choice of, bank or mayhem missions, that's just cool. It would be helpful, and more fun, if your nemesis leveled up and progressed roughly with you.

    I seriously have no clue would this would take code wise, but it's a fun idea and I would love to see it made to work. As Gob mentioned, the phasing technology would seem to be perfect for this with your arch-nemesis might randomly attacking when you are between missions, an ambush with some warning like NPC text or something. (There he is, Get him!). . .

    going solo

    Perfectly reasonable desire in my opinion. We are not all socially inclined, nor should we have to be. One of the things that bugs me most about this game is being forced into teams or leagues to gain certain things. In comicbook tradition, many heroes are loners, why can't players be loners? But, unfortunately there is no means for the solo player to gain most of the incarnate powers nor a solo equivalent to task force rewards which I feel there really should be.

    EATs in AE

    This is valid, I have wanted to do the same thing myself.
  7. Vidiots Maps also has that info, not in a separate window, but on the map it's self.
  8. Cool idea, but now I am emotionally addicted to the Knife/Sword & Pistol concept!
  9. I agree with the OP but something else in the thread caught my eye:

    Thanks for the tip, just watched it for the first time and it looked great, but but many of the powers shown are ones I am not familiar with.

    I love the Sword & Pistol set!

    But what was all that other weirdness? Is all that stuff actually in the Asian version?
  10. Bravo for the OP! Great suggestion.

    It would also be great to have a master SG salvage inventory list/menu that could be called up at the same time.
  11. It really is an overdue improvement, not just email/offline invites but offline promotions as well.
  12. Took me completely by surprise, not what I have come to expect from Forbin!

    The idea of nasally projected bananas kinda grosses me out. It's funny! But still gross. But then I guess it would be no worse than any snot rocket set.

    Praetorian EAT

    I would have agreed with you when "Epic" meant getting a toon to level 50 first before unlocking the EAT. But now that it has been reduced to level 20 and Praetorian content goes to level 20 (And a step higher when we get full access to First Ward) I see no reason for NOT having a PEAT now.

    Having said that, I would still love to see others made available first. Rikti for sure, and I would really love to see the Kheld "Family" expanded with Quantum's, Void's & Galaxies. I would also love to see a Longbow HEAT.

    I like it, make it so!

    A Clockwork and/or PPD EAT would be worth looking at. Perhaps a Resistance EAT could be worked out too. I do like the thought of a Hamidon/DE "Infected" EAT, there could be some interesting visuals, vine wrapped costumes ect.

    Hamidon powers could perhaps include things like:
    1. "Summon Swarms", those bee like DE swarming things.
    2."Pollen Cloud" a choking mass AoE attack/debuff.
    3. "Tree of Life" a health buff like the Triage Beacon.

    Additionally, there are many thorn & vine powers from other ATs and power sets that could be rolled into the Hamidon set fairly straight across. . .

    The more I think about it the more I like this idea!
  16. A.S. with AoE. . . Set Bomb! (Must retreat after setting or be caught in the blast with targets). . .



    Well the visual is cool!
  17. I agree, I would love to add Praetorian TP beacons as several of my toons have all those badges. But to take it a bit further, I would love to add Hero side beacons to my Villain Group as my Rogues have managed to collect all the Paragon badges (Save one). It would be fine if only Rogues could access it. I would also love to see Praetorian Super Groups for that matter.
  18. I would love to see Stalker variants that stretch out the range a bit. Snipers for example as a long range option. The Whip powerset would be another great mid-short option. A Shotgun set might be another good option, short ranged but still further than melee.

    jetpacks

    Flash Gordon, Rocketeer, and Adam Strange style. But also Rocket Belts! and variations on the Rocket Boots and and and and. . . .

    yeah, I want!
  20. That's too funny! I love it!

    I would love to add Recipe storage!
