Apparently GG bashing is no longer cool. Who knew?

Which is rather silly, because you can only get Agent G if you've done Delilah. They're in the same level bracket of 20 - 24. If you miss Delilah, you miss G too.

And suppose fighting only cosmic entities at high levels doesn't fit with some of our concepts? Should we just stop levelling period, because at some arbitrary point the game becomes "Gods allowed only?"

Malta may not be superpowered, but their anti-super conspiracy seems perfectly appropriate for high levels. Powerful psychics pounding away at your defenses and resolve to make you submit also seems perfectly appropriate.

I'm sorry, but I'd have to agree with Zwill. A fight with Galactus all the time would get boring. Sometimes Lex Luthor and his Kryptonite-powered weapons will suffice enough.

Well, since clearly in this case that the Viewers are *mumblemumble*, I have suggested captions.

I'm often looking at buff bars. Sometimes it reminds me to turn on a buff (especially if someone isn't in direct view and I can't see its more obvious effect).

Cleeeaarly. (Emphasis was mine.)

I'd say a buildup of angry citizens and a psychic debuff offer a LOT of resistance, but that's just me.

He serves unnamed gods of the Netherworld which could potentially include Mot.

And you don't see the double standard there?

By a lot of the arguments I've seen here, my ninja girl, Lady Tsukira, shouldn't be allowed to hurt demons and robots with her ordinary steel swords just because she's otherwise a completely ordinary "normie." It's a ridiculous assertion that you should be able to be instantly invulnerable to something just because it doesn't match your concept of being an uber elder god from the center of the galaxy, forgetting entirely that this is a game based on mechanics to ensure balance and challenge for those whom are playing it.

Except you're not "inherently" weak, it's just the telepathist Pacification debuff that's making you weak. That's the exact opposite of "inherent." In the words of Inago Montoya, you keep using that word, I do not think it means what you think it means.

Furthermore, UberGuy posted about experiences counter to yours concerning ignoring the telepathists where the whole trial went to hell. And you even admitted to experiencing a few like that when responding to him, so clearly such claim that ignoring the telepathists produce "a higher rate of success" as universal is very FALSE.

Furthermore, you have to change buildings, and as you continue to ignore the telepathists, you still have to deal with the angry civilians and more of them than there should be.

The buff icon is still an indicator of its active status, regardless of FX. Hell, some people in this game actually complain about too much FX. Imagine how annoyed they be if everyone or everything was glowing with the debuff.

Remember, your "strategy" is not universal in its success. But what I really read from this is that you're frankly too afraid of rocks to try it, forgetting that there will be less rocks with less telepathists to convert civilians.

Oh yeah, Captain America can only be brought down in a much less retarded way: an almighty Ordinary Bullet!

Go pound sand.

Yeah... as others have pointed out, that isn't the opposite. Steroids shrink your junk.

That I could believe.

Um... buff bar, anyone?

At least I would think it would show up there. Even the RWZ debt protection buff shows up there.

And yet they can be injured by psychic blast and not have a trouble understanding that? It's a similar concept, save one is injuring and the other is debuffing to allow injury.

lulz

Yeah, TPN's supposed to take place "before" the MoM trial.

Malta? Longbow? Arachnos? Knives of Artemis? Natural origin PCs (assuming the character is supposed to be human)?

That logic crumbles underneath scrutiny.

It's the psychic villain's stock tactic. I know, because I recall a lot of psychic supervillains getting in the hero's head and repeating "submit submit submit" when reading comics in the past.


Actually I think it's evidence of something else, but saying it would be a moderation-worthy offense.

Really? Because I recall a number of claiming in this thread that it didn't make sense. I wasn't aware dislike and confused were synonyms.

And there's ways to avoid that.

The Seers are Kryptonite. They're what's causing the problem both mechanically and narratively. When around Kryptonite, Superman can be hurt by anything. Even by a two-year old kicking him in the knee.

I really don't see why this is so hard to comprehend and I'm getting tired of repeating myself.

And there's where your argument keeps falling apart. You wouldn't have to deal with rocks and molotov cocktails outside if you actually bothered to stop the Seers.

And considering DPS, its not like you're limited to a certain number of high damage archetypes.

It's your logic that's faulty.

"WAAAHHHH! I'M AN INCARNATE AND THESE CIVILIANS ARE HURTING ME WITH ROOOOCKS!"

"Well, why don't you take out the Seers to keep them from debuffing you and converting the civilians?"

"OHHHH BUT THAT TAKES WAY TOOOOO LOOOOONG!"

"You could assign a few league mates outside to take out the Seers while the rest mash IDF inside. There's only about 6 of them."

WAAAHHH! BUT ROOOCKS!! SO SILLY!"

Isn't killing civilians something of an auto-fail?

And yet you're ******** about the rocks that the converted throw at you. It seems to me that the people upset about the rocks beaning their Seer debuffed ***** have no one to blame but themselves.

Speaking from experience... they're very closely related.

As someone stated earlier, they probably don't con gray to keep someone from griefing the trial.

Hero Boy: We're almost there, team!

Grief Boy: *Judgments a bunch of gray-conning civilians.* lulz.

Trial Failed!

You don't come back from the hospital from being blown to bits either, and yet this game still allows it.

What's more demoralizing? Death troops shooting bolts of light at you, or the civilians you're supposed to be setting free sneering angrily and resentfully toward you while throwing rocks at your head?

Unfortunately America has a very... Victorian attitude towards sex. I have to say, I'm amazed that the miniskirt ever made it here, considering the American attitude over sex. Paradoxically, American culture doesn't seem to mind oodles and oodles of blood and gore splattering the walls. It's peculiar when violence is considered more acceptable than sex.

But in this case, there are floating ladies projecting a Kryptonite radiation field while Superman is getting pelted by rocks.

#6 is probably chilling in the Gutter, or maybe even in the Fab. No one seems to be in the Fab yet.
