Maybe instead of a full-on Invasion, it should be an Expeditionary Force or Recon Party, and only disrupting a portion of a zone, rather than the whole thing.
Those who have Hunt missions in thier story arc or godforbid thier TF can go to the other side of the zone and still complete it.
"Dimensional Disturbance in <zone>!" A Portal (Mega-sized object, no direct attacks, summons spawns, has lots of HP) is placed on the map. Normal spawns within X distance are replaced by Preatorian Critters. -
I like the designs for the most part, but I'm really not digging the faces. In particular, the mouths.
They're just... no. -
Hit 43 the other day on my Elec/Elec Dom. Having an absolute blast playing it. I think Elec is now my favorite control set.

Sounds like what we've seen of the Interface Incarnate powers.

Hmm, that seems kind of flimsy, in the first place, as a simple grunt (outside of our wily ways through our story arcs) we shouldn't HAVE a patron. We're just foot soldiers, and I thought APP were more "evolving yourself" which is why they were open to everyone instead of having to do an arc like PPP...
my head hurts...

But that just cuts down on senseless panic - and an announcement thread without senseless panic just isn't a proper announcement thread.

This is better than The Party Pack but I still feel it is light and unavailable until toons reach levels 20 and 30,

Yes, they will be available from creation on. -
Quote:Minor fix. There's 1 cape and 2 auras for every Origin.Originally Posted by Sapphic_Neko
While i love the idea of new additions to the game, be it in form of boosters or not.
I just feel like the last two been kinda "meh" all in all. 8 emotes, and now we get 5 capes and 10 auras. -
Just thought over these auras as well as how a lot of the older auras got revamped.
So... Atomic Aura, combat activated on fists?
If that can be done, I am SO there. I mean, I'll be buying this pack anyway, but if that particular version can be done... wow. -

Quote:Awesome.Originally Posted by theOcho
I can indeed confirm that these pieces are not tied to your character's origin. The name and design of the pack is thematic around the origins, but not hard coded into your choices.
EDIT: And FPARN and Red Name Sandwich!

I have trouble imagining that the Devs would be so short-sighted as to do this, but...
Can anyone state for certain if these costume pieces are or are not, in fact, tied to your character's origin?
As has been pointed out by others, we've already had 5 boosters specifically geared toward each Origin, but none of them were limited to only being used by their specified Origin. Any and all could use those parts.
I fully believe this will be the case for this pack as well. -
BREAKING NEWS!
The RMS Titanic struck an iceberg and sank at sea! -

Bio Plasma Aura - A more fiery Omega aura
Toxic Vapors Aura - Gaseous cloud emitted from body. Almost like the Pumicites' gas emissions. -
Quote:Personally, I understand that they either can't or won't make things look exactly how they do in the comics. Some things just don't translate well from paper to screen.Originally Posted by QuiJon
What i find funny is that you have people here that think it looks bad, when this is obviously made for a movie rather then the 2d block color of a comic book, where if they actually made everything look like the comic book we would be talking about how the costume was to spandex, and how the movie sold out to take advertising dollars from Coleman to have the battery still looking like their camping lanterns.
Guess im just one of those people that watch the old superman movies and think that the costum looks horrid on screen. Cant please everyone i guess.
But that doesn't mean this looks good. Nor does it mean that the one from the comics would look good either.
It means, simply, this lantern? Is ugly. -
Joining the "It's kinda ugly" bandwagon.
It's a good shape, but all the extraneous details bog it down. This is a case where "less is more" would've been better, I think. Just smooth it down, give it a more metal look rather than what looks like smoky plexiglass with a green light inside. -

I do mind if they keep the kb in energy blast . I am just saying a damage buff would make the set more attractive . the older players that have energy blasters mainly cuz they had no choice 5 years ago lol.
Conveniently, they do. Provided Aim and Build Up are used, of course.Quote:If I hurl a ball of energy in to a mob, guys need to die..
So if Energy was turned into the most damaging blast set, it'd be okay? What of Fire then? Energy's secondary effect is Knock. Fire's is more damage. By making Energy not only the KB set but also the Damage set, you've invalidated Fire's purpose. What do you propose to do with Fire?Quote:If energy did more damage than fire the knock back would not be an issue IMO well at least for me ..
Energy has as much AoE ability as other blast sets. It also has equivalent damage potential to them. It is not lacking in either respect.Quote:No aoe & No damage -

How so? Because they changed a few characters or that The Mighty Endowed is most likely never going to show up.
Though yeah, Mighty Endowed showing up would be good too.

Still slightly peeved that it's not really Young Justice. Oh well, still looks pretty interesting and I'm somewhat looking forward to it.

Go ahead and open up your combat monitor to monitor your ToHit, both with and without your Dargeting Trone doggled on. Doggled off, it should be 75%.

Quote:Energy is only "subpar" when compared to outlier sets like Fire. As it is, Energy Blast is exactly where it should be: right in the middle of the pack.Originally Posted by Redd Rumm
The enrgy primary on the ranged sets fits a lot of my concept toons ....
But it is just a lame set IMO the knock-back is not welcome on any team
the damage is alright at best and it is not aoe heavy ,so what is the point ?
In comics an anime, guys who use some sort of enrgy blast do major damage an if they knock a guy thru a wall or building the guy is hurt .
This does not translate well in CoX . I have made a lot of toons in this game an i would like to stop skipping enrgy blast . now some exceptional players have been abble to pimp this set out on blasters an those of you that have i think you are awsome ! but for the ones like me who just cant deal with a sub par set but like the concept . HELP! You can count the engergy / corruptors on one hand, an i dont even know if defenders even have enrgy blast as i have NEVER seen one and ive played this game for 4 years lol.
Energy has decent AoE and decent ST. It's not bad in either of those. It also has some of the best (though highly underrated) mitigation available in a blast set. -

You mean aside from making it game-breakingly good when IO procs are applied to it?

One thing I noticed about that I18 beta guide is that it implies all ten Incarnate slots will function the same way as the Alpha slot, which is to say provide enhancement-like (or alternatively invention set bonus-like) buffs. However, the I18 preview only showed the Alpha slot, and there's no evidence the other nine slots will work the same way (in fact, its a poorly kept secret that the other slots *won't* work that way, but provide other completely different kinds of benefits).
We've already seen leaks of various "Interface" boosters that are nothing like the Alphas we've seen.
In either case, I look forward to being able to maek stuff.
