Okay, this has been annoying me. Take Super Strength, for example. If you'd been playing for just one year and paying each month, you will have spent $180 ($15x12) to unlock Super Strength. Stop saying that you didn't have to pay for old sets, because you had to pay for them CONSTANTLY.
Now you are paying 10 for one and only one set.
And its not worth the money. -

So you say.
I like it, and I disagree with your assessment, therefore your opinion is not the fact you seem to think it is.
Since you are buying one and only one powerset for a premium price, they are going to have to accept that some people might not like it.
They are going to have to make some sort of adjustment for this fact or wind up with some very bitter and vocal players.
Its a very weak set as it stands in my opinion.
The game moved on from single target damage about 10 issues ago. This is a fact not opinion. No purples means dead weight, and the only way to earn purples is farming, you dont need great aoe, but you need acceptable.
And then back to my opinion, StJ does not have acceptable aoe. -
So I have to say I am extremely disapointed and unhappy with Street Justice .
The set is just plain weak... the aoe's are so small as to be meaningless, and a 5 target limit on one and a 10 on the other.
ITs inferior to SS in both single and aoe damage.
The set was changed from the time it came off beta but before live, and did not go back on test.
This feels rather bait and switch, even though it wasnt nerfed live.
To move onto a general point, will we be able to get refunds on sets, powers, etc that we feel disappointed with.
There was no way to view the real stats before purchasing, so again I feel this was a somewhat deceptive.
I am EXTREMELY unhappy with this. -

Basically everything is inferior to Super Strength, though. It's not a very relevant metric.
Its a weak set... sorry, no set should be wholy inferior to another set.
Not one thats paid for. -

I like it.
I'm not overly concerned about it having massive AoE. (what is with the obsession with everything having massive AoE anyway? Does everything have to be a farming set?)
I haven't gotten to Spinning Strike yet, but Sweeping Cross feels very similar to Shadow Maul as far as hitting multiple targets goes. And it's faster than Shadow Maul is.
Seems to me like the people complaining are bent out of shape that the set isn't better than everything else in the game. It's actually pretty well balanced from what I've seen so far. Balanced is good, if it were too good you'd have people pissed because they have to pay money for the best set, if it were too bad you'd have people pissed and wanting their money back (good luck with that, do your research first next time).
So far, I like it. It very much has a natural feel to it, or at least an "untrained street fighter" quality. I suspect it will be an effective AV soloing set as well, but that remains to be seen.
It doesnt have to be awesome aoe, but it has to be better than this pathetic excuse for aoe.
About the refund, Im going to start a post on this on the general forums, it wont work, but Im sure they dont want to be embarrased by having refund posts popping up all over, so they might either refund or buff the set, its better than having new players, customers scared off. -
Thats what it feels like it was nerfed then not properly tested.
-
IM finding it exceedingly difficult to hit more than 2 or 3 enemies with sweeping cross.
Its aoe is beyond horrid.
Edit, Ultimus just put a post on this, pretty much confirming what I was feeling, its inferior to SS for brutes and I would assume tanks. -
Quote:Most of the sets, just go right in with the aoe's and mobs die so fast in the current game that by the time you get to your aoe's most of the pack is dead.Originally Posted by Lady_of_Ysgard
It's a great set if you know what you're doing.
Attack, switch, attack, switch, attack, switch, AoE with boosted damage, repeat as desired/needed.
It kinda begs for a taunt aura on the defense set, but that's a small inconvenience.
Besides your barely going to hit anything with those tiny aoe's
It feels like the set got nerfed at some point and then not properly tested.
Its NOT in any way shape or form worth 10 bucks. -
The aoe is pretty weak,funny they should put out a single target set since there is very little demand for single target damage.

Quote:Lacking, very lacking, 1 cone, 1 pbaoe and very very short range and low target caps.Originally Posted by Broken_Wings
How is it's AoE?
The rest of the set is good, but I dont get the point of single target sets at this stage of the game. -
Quote:This is excessively excessive by any mmo standardOriginally Posted by ShadowWings
Down times are needed in every MMO.
Length does not bother me. I actually have other things to do on down times.
Such as forum post. -
yup maintenance runs overtime again
Im glad I froze my account till they get their act together and stop taking 3+ days a week and 4+ hours maintenance.
There is really no point paying them till they can actually keep their servers up in a reasonable manner. -
intended or unintended right now it is the only channel for free players to find group and it will be used as such.
There is nothing you or I can do to change this.
The Devs MUST put in a free LFG channel or help channel will be crushed under the weight of lfg. -
Also you have to remember you are a corruptor...
Power build up is also half a build up, and Aim+powerbuildup + Nuke =a whole lot of hurt. -
Its not about 12 hours compared to how many hours in a month.
Its how many of those 12 hours take hours away from your actual playtime.
If I play between 10am pst to 1 pm pst which are my normal gaming hours.
Im loosing 3 of 3 hours for that day...
Yes they need to give us free time. -

Whats actually funny is its only hard if you actually do the mission
If you superspeed through everything loaded to earlobes on lucks, nothing ever touches you and the ambushes are stuck in the entrance and never move, dont die, because you wont be able to pass the 300 mobs stuck at the door waiting to blow you to smithereens before you finnish loading, but hey.... -
Now availible in male, female and huge
Please sell these to us. -
Very easy way to do this, go in mission, pop 4 purples, hit ninja run, run past all mobs to first glowie, click it, nothing at this level can hit you with 4 lucks on at +0, repeat then run to boss, pop whatever inspirations you have left kill boss, even with a very squishie character you can finnish this easy as the ambushes will still be Slowly making their way toward you by the time the boss is down and the mission complete.

Plant/time scares me.... scares me alot...
One of the best control sets with a controllery secondary and tons of +rech and powerboost....
I dont want to say the O word.. but really.. -
Grabbed names Staff-Infection, Pole Position and Stick Figure on exalted, just to be safe.
-
Im sure its a bug, either in the display or the power, either way it will get fixed eventually I wouldnt let this dissuade you from a defender.

Overpowered no.
Better than Thermal possibly.
Devs tend to balance against the objective, how does it compare to their hypothetical baseline.
For example there is the old example Tar patch vs Disruption arrow, acid arrow and glue arrow. Tar patch is almost as good as 3 powers in TA.
So lets say hypothetically their margin of error is 10% off the baseline, where if its more than 10% stronger or weaker it gets buffed or nerfed.
That would mean the strongest vs the weakest could be 20% hypothetically.
Time is strong no doubt, but not overpowered, but possibly up there with Rad or kin.
Trust me there are MUCH weaker sets out there than thermal -
Time seems a lacking set for MM's
Pets dont get a bonus from +rech and Time is so heavily vested in +rech.
Seems... not to work. -
I love the new sets and new sewer trial
