Quote:Please do read on a bit further so I don't have to repeat myself; I acknowledged that I had forgotten about Willpower. Still, that's just three armors (Willpower, Electric, and Dark) for the four melee classes that give psi resistance. The rest are sitting ducks when they get hit by psi (sure, there are a couple armors whose schticks are NOT getting hit, but if the mob does get in a hit, you certainly do feel it).Originally Posted by BrandX
o.O WP...crumple...to Psi?

Quote:All available clues seem to indicate that it was Ultimatum, Maelstrom's former superiors before he went turncoat and joined the Praetorians.Originally Posted by Lady Arete
Okay, how did Primal Earth shoot first?
By making contact with the resistance first? Opening the portal to Praetorian earth? Sending in probes as they discovered things? Getting kidnapped by praetorians and needed to send heroes through to recover them?
Discovering that there had been established various cells of Praetorians on Primal earth and sent them packing back to where they came from?
I tried looking it up, but I could not find anything (so either my search fu is weak at this moment) or a "revised history" from Devs have not gotten out to the public. -
Quote:And there you've highlighted my point. Widows have so many tricks, it's a disservice to try to nail them into such a narrow hole.Originally Posted by Schismatrix
Widows are at their best at melee range. Widows are very much like Claws/SR Scrappers with the addition of Psi resistance and defense as well as excellent team buffs. Fortunatas are the more ranged version.

Quote:Wasn't aware of electric armor's resistance, forgot about willpower, and I don't really count Widows as "melee." I'm not sure what you mean by that last one either.Originally Posted by Zandock
Electric Armor? Willpower? Widows? Any build with positional defense (excluding a few Mind Control attacks).

I'm pretty sure the devs confirmed Primal Earth shot first.

Quote:This. It's probably the only melee build that can withstand psi. Everything else seems to just.... crumple.Originally Posted by Star_Seven
+ 1 in favor of dark armor here...love it. Fun active set. Can be very powerful. Great against psi!

I certainly hope the invasion is just a distraction to cover his REAL plan.

From what I understand, they're merely "Disney Vaulting" the Celestial set.

Quote:Um, you can already start and progress through the First Ward content as a Praetorian before ever going through the portal. When your Praetorian dings 20, Doorman sends you an invite.Originally Posted by Zemblanity
Finally, at level 20, instead of going through the portal to Primal Earth that Dr. Science mcguyvered from the lint in his pocket, they'd be forced to flee back into First Ward

So aliens eventually get their Well of the Furies green card. Cute.

I hear there was a book on Genesis......or maybe it was a device, I forget which.
So they all ran away to be eaten by Devouring Earth? Yeah, okay, so the Praetorian storyline reaches a semi-conclusion with the Magisterium trial, but does anyone recall that Hamidon is a bit P.O.ed now?Quote:Originally Posted by Golden Girl
There are no civillians in Nova Praetoria when the Magisterium Trial takes place - the content that leads up to it describes how the civilians all fled once we trashed the loyalist thought police in the MoM Trial - without any Seers to control them, the people apprently decided that the "utopia" of Nova Praetoria wasn't actually that much fun to live in

Yeah, I knew about this. As others have said, she's been playing for years.

My few characters on Virtue (yes, I have a couple) cruise through the new Atlas Park just fine. This really sounds like a problem with your system(s). Your SG clearly needs to upgrade their rigs.

I'm here until the servers get the final shutdown.

Yes. You have correctly identified the crux of the joke.

But at least it still compares favorably to Bees Mastery.
No idea why they styled a powerset after the Red Bee. What a maroon he was to begin with. -
I was promised ninja pirate robot Nazi zombies! Where are they? WHEEEERRE AAARRRE THEEEEEEYYYYY?

Quote:...Um... satirical comedy is not lying. Sure, it's not truthful, but lying is usually done with the intent to deceive, which this was not. This was done with the intent to make people laugh.Originally Posted by DevilYouKnow
Because unless I know someone is a liar I generally believe they are telling the truth. YMMV, but that is far more pleasant than thinking that everyone is a liar.

1. Old badges are changed to match new badge
"That's lame, we should keep our old badges"
2. Old badges are different from new badges
"That's lame, now I can't get all of the badges on my character, there shouldn't be any badges that new characters can't get" -
Signing this again. Don't retcon badges, that's just petty.

Quote:Psychics can't astral travel to the world of the dead now? Geez, they've been doing that in every other piece of fiction I've watched and read, so why not City of Heroes? Hell, a few tip missions imply that Sky Dragon and the Legacy Chain do it all the time.Originally Posted by Agent White
Hm. Then why is Malaise there already? That'd imply MoM has already happened.
