Its time for the forum to step in and do what we always wanted. Time to create the Battalion!
The Battalion melee minion has player character melee. They pick up a character and start swinging at walls. floors or other players. They have 4 robotic extra arms with Axe attacks. One is an Axe, the second is a bigger Axe, the third is a huge Axe, the fourth is a gigantic Axe. After defeating a melee minion players will begin to hear Nickelback in their heads. -

In current data mining theory I follow there are 5 ways to organize data.
Sequential is organizing things in date and time order. This is only good if time and dates have meaning. There are so many any level mission in the MA the level sort is useless.
Location is organizing things by places. So you might want to see all missions using a specific map or group of maps. If you hate caverns then you search on all maps that are not in caverns
Alphabetical is only useful if you have one meaningful word or phrase. So if you wanted to play a mission that had The Statesman in it then an Alphabetical NPC sort is useful. Your target here is popular NPC groups and NPCs.
Category is grouping data by a shared trait or absent of the trait. So you may want to see all roleplay missions, all farming missions, or all missions without farming. This is the typical + or - filtering on searching
Continuum is sorting data by formulas or scores. We create a formula that represents something and apply it to the data. Lets say that a Laundry Gamer wants missions under 15 minutes, They want good xp. They want missions with no ambushes so they can go AFK while folding clothes. So we create a formula of All Missions under 15 minutes with no ambushes sorted by average XP at level 20 for killing all mobs. Now the Laundry Gamer can see missions that appeal to his/her demographics.
Formulas are tweaked over time. If someone's Vegan food ratings moves a steakhouse to the top then you look at the formula and fix it. Formulas can also indicate problem like everyone despising Devouring Earth Defeat All missions. -

I wanted it to be a YES/NO rating system, but I was shot down. I also wanted players to be able to mark a mission as a farm mission. Just make it a legitimate category, that the un-interested people could filter out.
Thats actually a smart idea. If farming takes place in the open you can regulate it and adjust it if there is too quick XP gain. If farming goes underground then the only limit is the worst bug people can find.
The farmer's customers are not really a problem. I talked to a farmer in Austin. Most of the clients got bored and left. He just kept recycling the same virtual property after Mr 1% abandoned it. -

I think if you ever played in 1 of the 2 massive roleplay PVP events in UO then you would change your mind. The players in UO had two rebellion events where all the major characters were players. The players structured the fights so they were balanced. I was three different characters on the evil side which was fun. -
I was a beta tester. There used to be no limit of Aggro from snowstorm. One day I put snowstorm on one 5th column NPC in Independance Port. He ran accross the bridge away from me. When he came back he had more than 50 NPCs following him. It was like the Boston Marathon of Evil. I panicked and started running for the exit.
Fortunately I was the only one faceplanted from this. Later on I found on Tornado also had unlimited Aggro.

IMHO what COH has going for it is half of a succesful mission creation system. The problem with the MA is the same problem with most search engines. The basic search gets you a lot of junk you don't want.
According to theory there are five different ways to search on data. You can search by time (avg completion time for adventure). You can search on locations (include or exclude the map used). Alphabetic Order would be useful for something like Creator ID. Category is already used in the sort engine. This leaves one last type of data sort.
IMHO what they should have done is to create "scores" based on the type of player. Powergamer score for an adventure would be average XP per minute played. The Threat Level would be number of Mobs needed to clear , number of AVs, and average damage per mob per minute. The roleplay score would be the rating from players who have their RP flag turned on. There would be a statistical score for each player type.
Knowing which missions match up well to playing styles is very similar to targetted advertising. Once you know what people like you can create more of it. If everyone knows which mission has the highest powergamer score then the professional farmer isn't worth a whole lot. The laundry gamer might only want missions under 20 minutes so they don't mess up laundry with your 113 minute mission roleplaying an infected stealing a cheesburger.
Before you dismiss the scores idea remember that the scoring algorithms for Internet Search engines are currently worth $$$$ to their companies. What do you think a decent scoring algrithm for online games would be worth? -

hmm .. maybe not that name -
I saw the nature affinity video which looked very artistic.
The second I saw it I imagined my villain with running through Paragon leaving a trail of bottles, bags, and cigarette butts. When the hero wrapped the targets in leaves and flowers while that metrosexual music played in the background I could see my villain trapping heroes up in plastic rings while Euro Deathmetal musc thrashed in the background.
There would be nothing more fun for a villain player then summoning up some garbage elemental. Even if the hero defeats it they would still have a large pile of garbage to clean up. You could even give villains an option starting power of throwing garbage at their enemies. NPC gangs could throw empty beer bottles at heroes running past them to their next powerlevel.
The high level power could be Industrial Landfill where tons of Slag monsters get dropped on the target.
Aren't you glad I am not a developer for COH? -
I am not using these names.
I was just making up some fun stuff to help me memorize materials on the 14 known types of problem solving. Instead of having patriotic heroes I thought it would be amusing to have some patriotic themed bad guys. -

Here are a few things I came up with. I am trying to work in COH elements with dating losers
I spend my retirement money on dual origin enhancements
Usually I date women from Dark Astoria but ...
Someday I hope to have an ex-wife from every gang in Paragon
I believe that a man and woman can't really love each other until they give each other swirlies in the Paragon Tram station
Now I can stop building a wife from Vahilzok spare parts
I got a discount coupon for the Mother Mayhem All You Can Eat Chow Hut
My retirement plan is 40 years of running DIB
Before your daughter gets here do you know anyone who can remove a Stheno Forever tattoo from my buns?
Dating your daughter is my best decision since I six slotted sprinting -

I made a Villain defender last night with the Retro Space Outfit and a Brain in a jar. It was the first time I really liked the costume. It was also the first time I could see my character being someone's crappy minion. -
My next AE project has a working title of "I want to date your daughter". Your super powered daughter has reached Age 18. She starts bringing home losers so you beat them up with your powers until someone decent comes along. I need some ideas for Super Losers. So far my idea list includes a Freakshow who spent all his money on Bobblehead Implants, A Cobra who wants to bring your daughter to the Snakepit on a romantic date, A Council Warwolf who is a Furry, A Baker Villain who has Gingerbread Power Armor and a Supervillain who wants a wife to help run his Doctor Vahilzok Erotic Fanfic website.
So who can give me some good ideas for Superhero or Supervillain losers for this? -
+Spin - Instead of Knocking back, up or down the target is spun around until they get dizzy, weaker targets may barf
+Orient - The target knows exactly where they are
+Roleplay - The target spends its next action roleplaying
+Buff Defence Buff - Increases the defence of all manly muscular characters
+Buff defence Buff in the Buff - Increases the defence of all nekkid manly characters
Special Damage vs Infected - Increases damage against every NPC you stop fighting by level 10
-Player Pet Perception , makes targets harder to see for Wisps
-Battlecry , remaps Battle Cry to "Laugh Cry Share the Pants"
Enhance Immobilization Perception "Hey I can't move"
Increased Attack Rage "Aaaaaaah 7 more levels till I get a better attack"
PBJAOE Damage - The Dreaded Exploding Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich -
Putting Life into Identical NPCs
Give your minor NPCs a simple mood or behavior and put it into their speech. A simple way to find useful materials is by browing therapy and mentoring sites.
I have 10 Freakshow that are completely identical in powers and appearance. But they will act diffently to the player.
One is Bossy
Two is Domineering
Three is Ambitious
Four is Curious
Five is Creepy
Six is Vengeful
Seven is a Perfectionist
Eight is Manic
Nine is Deceitful
Ten is a weirdo babbling Bob Dylan style rhyming in a 1212 1112 pattern where the 2 beats rhyme
Hand Gun Crime Fun $target better run
Big Fight Hero Fright $target gonna smite
Good Guy Gonna Fry Gotta make your fans cry
Not that you ever wanted to learn but now you can babble like Bob Dylan... -

I have to travel several hundred miles this weekend to take care of elderly kinfolk but before I leave here are a few more tips...
1) When you are looking for new enemy groups try other cultures during different time periods.
British/Irish gangs from the 1900s included the Penny Mobs, Ribbon Men, Caravats (wore ties), Shanavests (wore vests) and Scuttlers . I can use those names to create my own gangs for my nefarious purposes
2) Create different level versions of your good missions
I have a level 20 and level 35 version of my graveyard rumble. I use the weaker power combinations for my custom bosses in the level 20. I have some tougher customer bosses in the Level 35
3) Create multiple threads of adventure on large maps
I have a large brawl being fought on the graveyard map. Originally I set it up as A1-A2-A3....A22 . The pacing sucked and you spent more time searching than playing. I reworked the triggers as three sets of linked triggers
Fight A1-A7
Fights B1-B7
Fight C1-C7
When I did this it allowed me to keep my storytelling by having fights in sequence with clues. It also gave the players more action because the map has 3 objectives active at the same time. -

Lets look at the facts
1) Penelope Yin is making Anatomically Correct Clockwork
2) Everyone who makes robots and cyborgs puts their name on them
3) In literature a common plot is artificial life forms going beserk and attacking
4) People on Beta have found art to indicate Water Blaster ranged attacks
If you put all these together it suggest the next zone event would be Beserk Anatomically Correct Clockwork Bosses labelled "P Yin" spawning and spraying down players with their ranged water attacks. -
Creating the Best and Worst Test Alts
If you have an open slot create a melee mastermind or some other really bad combination. For a melee Mastermind you will take the pet powers and instead of ranged attacks use the melee attacks and melee defences from the additional power set.
The reason you want a Mastermind is that defeated pets trigger the defeat dialogue more often in testing. By creating a weenie alt you will be able to fine tune your mission for how challenging the mission is. If the Weenie alt breeezes through the mission then you know to add some more oomph.
Using a good alt helps you set the upper limit for difficulty. You want to make sure that the mission is not impossible but not boring. -
Write down more ideas than you need and use the best ones. When you look over your ideas you might decide that Sewer Trial the Musical was not as good as you thought. Use your A material with your B material to build up to it.
How to vary spawns
I create custom groups for the villains group I am using. One group is all minions. Another group is all LTs. If I want something brutal I create all boss groups. By putting these groups into my missions I can make fights easier and tougher. The Villain group remix will allow my adventure to have different fights with the same NPC group which keeps things interesting
. I do not use the default group option on my maps because even if they change levels the fights are the same.
How to vary objectives to make things interesting.
I am experimenting with using music to create adventures. Think of an adventure like a song. As the song goes on I want the music to get louder. The music changes so we are not bored. So I am going to use the pattern of music to keep my adventure moving.
The Lion Sleeps tonight chords are GCGDGCGD. I am going to use the same pacing as a song to vary my objectives. For my test adventure I used the following:
G Chord = Freakshow Boss
C Chord = NPC Boss
D Chord = Unique Boss
Even though I am using the same objectives the fights are different and keep things interesting. Remember how I made those extra NPC groups from weak to hard? As I repeat fights I go from easy to tough groups by switching up the NPC mobs
GCGDGCGD now becomes
Easy Freak/Easy NPC/Easy Freak/Easy Unique/Medium Freak/Medium NPC/Medium Freak/Medium Unique. This builds up my adventure towards its conclusion.
How can I get lots of ideas for NPCs
NPC Name Ideas
1) Incorporate Zones Names into build up NPCs. For my Freak bosses I used the neighborhood names to customize them like Gimry Ridge Gabby
2) Find interesting collections of phrases. For example Programming Magic Numbers will give you good Freakshow names like CAFEBABE, Magic Cookie and CAFEDOOD
3) Use the pronunciation of words as the name for characters like Speshuhl for Special -
