    Most of the weekend was spent on my Psi/Psi blaster.

    She went from 29 to 49 and along the way found some Pangean Soil, 2 x Prophesies, Hamidon Goo and Essence of the Furies but no recipes worth recounting

    Fun weekend, thanks to everyone I teamed with from Psyber Girl and hope you all had a great time too

    why can't we use names of characters in other comics?

    Short answer: trademark law.

    Other Short answer: Contravenes EULA

    (Besides, as you've seen from this thread and others the imagination of the playerbase is often as good or better than anything either place come up with.)

    ...Meh? is that you cant be bothered explaining further or you dont care wheather it goes in or not?

    Anyway, Powerset change would be good for those with maces/axes/swords who want the shield in the upcoming issue but cant because of thier already current Defense set.

    I personally think we should have AT change too, an example is Villains with Ninjas/Trick arrow sometimes pick that just for the bow, but when Archery gets proliferated they cant change thier choice.

    both of these examples apply to many other powers with a proliferated or upcoming proliferated powerset that they wanted originally.

    meh = extreme ambivalence

    As for Powerset/AT change also NO NO NO

    Play the toon you made or play a different one.

    If proliferation offers you anotehr choice, then make a new toon. Simple as.

    If you want something that can be all things to all men, I suggest plasticene

    Totally against any form of XP transfer but the rest is meh
  8. I don't see how this would be of benefit. If you're at the PC, then building a base will take the time it takes, regardless of on/off line.
  9. I'm willing to bet that nothing in this thread so far has come close.

    One thing Positron has shown us is that he's quite willing to be left-field and radical and do the unexpected whenever he feels it's warranted.

    I have no clue, but I am very interested to find out

    Greek & Roman mythology has always provided half the storylines for modern tales of heroism. At least cimerora seems to be taking us closer to the well of furies and the established backstory of CoX rather than being a total rush thrown together since one of the devs got 300 on DVD...

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Emphasis mine, but that's a really good point and one I'd not considered. I also noticed yesterday that there's a whole shipyard out of range in there presumably available for future forays
  11. Woo!!!! My alt is famous! Thanks Corona!!!!

    We've gotten some hints... Would love some more information, specially on powersets and such making it in.

    But don't rush the release like you did with I12... *grumble*

    [/ QUOTE ]

    This... remember the debacle that was I7?

    I too have concerns regarding I13... I got the feeling with I12 there was a distinct move away from the classic superhero comicbook game with Cimerora, clearly trying to cash in on Frank Miller's 300 and the subsequent movie.

    Whatever I13 brings I truly hope it doesn't depart from the basic tenets of the game. That said, I've enjoyed every issue from I8 onwards so let's hope things continue
  13. Ghost Slaying Axe every time (disclaimer: Some themed chars of mine do have Sands, but by far the majority have the Axe.)

    Why? Axe gets +5% Acc bonus due to redraw time. It does bonus damage against undead and if you are wise, like Chatarsis and myself, you go hunting magic foes like CoT and BP for that tasty salvage.

    It has a waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay lower recharge time than sands and if you miss, you miss once and move on to your next attack power. If you miss with sands come back in 5 minutes when you're still flailing wildly at thin air. I do not believe that Sands of Mu does 4 times the damage of the Axe and yet it's recharge is about that long.

    When do you use the bonus power more? Well, it's not when you've got 2 power trays of attacks all running is it? It's when you're at low level and needing an extra boost, between lvls 1-16. When every attack counts and a miss can make the difference between life and death.

    THAT, dear friends, is why you should take the Axe

    War Walls.

    Positron said the walls were coming down but the question is how you interpret that...
