I too wonder at this

My requests would be similar but I'll post just to share as well.

1) New APP, PPP, PP. Would love having a Scrapper with ranged weapons (not a ninja star, a gun please) and others that fit a Tech based concept or just the theme of other powers.

2) Power customization of the powers in #1

3) Power Proliferation: A Dark Dominater please! Been dying for that.

4) New Purple IO's: Surely Heals, Resistance, Defense etc can get the treatment as well.

5) New Powersets: Me, I'd want Pulse Rifles, or at least make it alternates for the Rifle powerset. Other new ones would be welcome.

6) New Archetype: Wheter it be an Epic one or a standard, I don't care just wantto try something else.

Most of my wants are unreasonable on time and resources and such, but it's what I want in any issue. Though for the most part I've been happy at what the developers deliver anyway.

Obviously I'm strolling in late to the subject but I do want to add my 2 cents. I intensely dislike the Lore slot as long as it's tied to Pets, and especially if it's tied with Praetorian pets. I got nothing against Praetoria or the storyline, but he majority of my Alts don't have it as a concept or background. Then there's the whole thing where the characters I make like to roll self contained with their powers, meaning no Pets.

Don't think I hate Pets, I don't, I love my Materminds. But I love them as Masterminds and not my Peacebringer & Pets. Now if I had go get pets, could I at least get some choice from the many, many factions in game to better fit my concept and theme rather then have it forced on me. And yes, I understand it's not being forced on me, I have a choice, but I do want to be a full Incarnate, with full level shifts, so in essence I have to take it.

I won't use Lore for a majority of my characters, but I will take it. But it would be nice to be able to work my theme in it, rather then have a theme pushed on me.

I definitly want to have a presence on a new Server, though to be honest my presence on my main isn't that strong anyway, and I tend to play in 4 servers anyway. But I love traveling to Europe, so why not play there too...

It's been mentioned before and I like the idea, a Melee/Buff or DeBuff type or Buff or DeBuff/Melee. Ever fight the Tsoo Martial Arts/Kinetics guys, something along that order. Melee centric type are always popular and I can see this one thriving.

I just desire a Dark Assault for Dominators, not even Dark Primary, just that for selfish reasons of course.

Yeah, I'm eagerly awaiting this extension of customization too. It's sad that we have all this level of customization for us but complete customization Desmond incomplete. I have far too many Alts who desire one thing or other in either Epics or PP's. And let me not even get started on HEAT's & VEAT's...I'm hoping that at the very least it's still in the works.

Dark Assault for Dominators. I've been dying to tie Plant Control and that.

Peacebringer fixes. They lag badly behind their Warshade brethren, and only minor fixes to make the powers more synergistic would be needed.

APP, PPP, PP color customization. I cringe every time my custom colored characters shoot off or use a travel power that clashes with my hand picked colors.

New Purple Sets. Though I cringe at the thought since I finally finished Purpling out the Toons I wanted to, it be nice having more choices no matter how expensive they'll be initially.

Now those are the simple ones. My pie in the sky wishes are more Base items (Base Tailor, Market Interface, new items), new Powersets (Laser Rifle), new Power Pools (Weapon Ranged or Melee, Travel Power Slide), new Archetype Melee/Support and Support/Melee (Red/Blue) and Mastermind Pet Customization.

Every year since CoV came out I've either requested this myself or /signed another person's suggestion. I would love to have a Corrupter or Blaster with an Energy weapon set with some extra toys like Photon grenade. I still hold out hope that someday it will come.

I love my PB, he's my main and I've Purpled him out and tweaked some really strong bonuses on him, but to be fair even with my love for him I find an SO'd out Warshade and a few other AT builds just more effective.

The Jack of All Trades is used when talking about Khelds, and PB's in specific, but truly they do suffer an inordinate amount to accomplish it. A Khelds Weakness is supposed to be Slot need, End heavy and Slow Recharge attacks. But weakness? I think part of the problem stems from when Khelds were first created a lot of powers were cloned from existing powers and therefore to avoid the other ATs feeling ripped off they made the cloned powers weaker. Notice a PB has more cloned powers then a Warshade, particularly in that a WS has Eclipse, Stygian Circle and Extracted Essences, all of which may resemble other established powers but are truly unique on their own. WS powers like Essence Drain, Detonation etc. Suffer because they are cloned powers, but the WS far outweigh the weakness.

I look to VEATs when I think of jack of all trades, because in them they got it right. Now that's impossible to do with an already established AT like the PBs, but some of the fixes mentioned by others (similar mez effects to help stacking as an example) would help. I wouldn't call for Mez protection in Human forms because that for one wouldn't be enough,
and would take away from the Flavor of using Forms but I do think the Forms should be beefed up a bit to help.

My PB's Global Recharge is at 110% without hasten so in the Forms my attacks cycle through well enough, but I do remember it was stressing to wait for the recharges to have a
decent attack chain. I don't think making it faster is balancing, but adding another attack to Nova and Dwarf would be, since you'd still have to figure out how to Slot accordingly which is still a weakness but would alleviate the crunch. Dwarfs should also have their taunt be auto hit instead of Acc dependent. A Dwarf should have some attack that does little damage but has a mez effect (a Black Dwarf have fear, White Dwarf stun) so they can mitigate incoming damage. A PB should lose Build Up and get something more akin to a weak & short Rage so that it can carry over a bit longer in Forms, or just shorten the time it takes to hangs into the Forms.

I think he WS seems to perform beget then the PB because a lot more of a WS powers synergies with each other and sOmewhat with their forms. A PB should have that benifit as well.

I won't get a chance to play for the next few days, just wondering if the issue was fixed with today's (err yesterday's) patch. It wasn't listed in the notes.

Playing around in RV, me and my friend experienced the same issue. No salvage, no inspires, no shards and no recipes. Happened ever since i19 dropped. Did get Rep though, but that's about it. Didn't test this in other zones yet though.

I thought (from my reading) we can get all of them and interchange as we wish, with a cool down time of course. Since my PB is my main I plan to do that, but if I had to choose one or one I'd use more often then it's got to be Musculature. My Tri-Form is decked out with 6 5-slotted Purples and the rest of my IO's are focused on Recharge, Acc, Rec/Regen and Dam. Now since I don't feel I have a true hole per se in my build I'm going to build up on the weakest which is my Damage at 19%. With i19 I'll also be adding the Leadership pool so I'm excited to see how things pan out.

Ok, help me out as I am old and haven't the time to dedicate to study as I once did. Just how does the ladder system/slot thing exactly work. Do you eventually get 10 of them and collect them as a set? Do you collect them and slot a few Alpha damage, a few Alpha resistances etc.? Just how are rares and uncommon ones built? Thanks, I know it can be figured out with time but I like to plan things ahead

I've been wanting new Power Pools and APP's for years, and hope eventually the Devs get to it. I see no reason to think they eventually won't, so I'm just biding my time. Ooh, and Power Customization of course. No as for Khelds, I'm not so sure they'll ever get Power Customization, but I certainly hope so.

Peacebringer and Crab. I like a mixed role and these two offer me that in spades. What I seem to happen to play most though are Controllers. I haven't the foggiest why since I like them well enough but enjoy tougher characters.

Stygian Circle: This power so fits the theme of a Warshade, and to boot its unique to only one AT. Plus, just plain awesome to use.

Phantom Army: C'mon, a pocket invincible army ready to throw down. This is always a tide turner.

Alter Metabolism: It does so much and is just very useful.

Foot Stomp: an area of damage and knockdown. Yes please! Makes you truly feel the rush of Super Strength by just the slam of your foot.

Assault Bot: Few third tier pets seem like true game changers. I'd have to believe this one ranks in the top spot.

I play my Crab Spider as a Cthonic being of the void. More Octupus then spider, though he uses the misunderstanding to his advantage and co-opted the Arachnos mythos as a foundatin of his new religion. So far I've kept my Khelds pretty standard but I'm sure that will change should a concept strike me.

See I decided a long time ago I would focus on two characters, one blue and one red, and get the best stuff for them that I could. Purples simply became another goal after 50. Now when i achieved it Blue side it was when they first came out. So they weren't as expensive as they are now.

I love my Peacebringer. I didn't Purple out to have a maxed out toon, otherwise I would have chosen a different AT who would better benifit from the supererior bonuses. At the same time, I wanted to have the most powerful PB i could have. Sort of like in comics you had powered people and then cosmic people. Johny Storm and Firelord have the same powers, just Firelord is on a greater level. So I got my six sets of Purples part for concept, part for maxing out, part for bragging rights and just cause I could.

The negative is though that while i have no End issues, that while my Damage is great, everything Recharges so fast I have a surplus of choices on what to do (and that's after I got rid of a Permahasten because it didn't rankle with my idea of concept) and all the other goodie, that my PB really isn't that greater then SO'd out characters. There's a few SO'd Alts of mine who quite outdo my PB (my MM, easily). But some lofty ideal of the perfect toon who does it all isn't what I'm shooting for, just my ideal of fun. Then again, isn't that what all of us are dong anyway.

I haven't completed my Red side version yet, my Purpled Crab. Took a while to decide who it should be. Besides, the fun is trying it and see if it can be done.

I back this idea. Maybe not this exct iteration, but the desire to have an MA type secondary to back Dual Pistols so we can have the complete Gun-Fu experience.

I agree with the too low call. For some of us it felt like an accomplishment to get to 50, and unlocking a new class was not so much as a reward but a gift to continue enjoying the game. Something new. Now I have little problem with the standards to get Epics made easier, just I wish it were a little higher and more involved. Make it TF/SF contingent. Blue side has a perfect one, though Red would need a new one to be equivalent. This of course presents a different hurdle, but nit a bad one I think.

For me, I like both sides of the game so i have no issue playing one or the other. I intend to equally spread the AT's using concept as my guide. Since i started the game I had a villain envisioned that controls gravity, attracting & repelling stuff but I could only do that Hero side. Now i can play my Grav/FF Alt as the proper villain he should be. Had a similar problem with an Ice/Ice hero as i felt neither Blaster or Controller felt right, bit Dominator is spot on. I just hope I don't get laughed off of teams bringing a Grav/FF Controller red side. Heh heh.

Curious, what are the good Farm maps now? I still got the big Nem map one, and Olivia Darque. Not sure which is the Snake one mentioned. I run a Fire/Psi by the way.
