Quote:I think you'd be hard pressed to argue that your defender isn't tough when you can shrug off bullets and energy blasts. "Armour" isn't just about toggles. It's one of several perfectly legal ways to justify being able to take a punch from anything bigger than a hellion.The feedback I saw off this was something along the lines of "Oh, he has armour, does he? My Rad/Rad Defender has armour. Can he be tough, too?"
So yes. It's entirely fine to say your blaster is wearing armour.
(That said, I'd love a blast/defence AT. Blasters aren't quite right for the classic "power armour" style character.) -
As long as 'saving the world' means 'enacting a ritual to drain Mot's power and take over the world' I have absolutely no problem with this.
I am sick and tired of saving the world. You'd think those heroes would get off the couch once in a while and actually do their heroing themselves. -

Quote:Can you describe what happens?Ok, that was pretty emotional - I was expecting it, but that didn't make it any less intense when I actually saw it happening - the setting and atmosphere for the last fight is one of the most epic things in the whole game, and the cutscene was amazing.
PM will be fine if we're trying to keep spoilers to a minimum. -

Quote:Flambeaux first appeared in issue 7. So... probably not.so I wonder if Flambeaux isn't based on Sister Flame, at least a little bit. Fire/Fire blaster, acts VERY flighty, and speaks kinda like a kid honestly.
If it is a lil dev nod to our fiery heroine... then kudos devs... -
Quote:We were. But then we figured out what a parody is, and then it was okay again.Master Midnight is a parody of D&D players in particular and gamers in general. That's his only reason to exist - as a joke character. "He's a nerd! Nerds are so weird! Let's mock the nerd! Laugh at the nerd!" I thought we were past that?
I thought Master Midnight was hilarious. But maybe that's because he reminds me of several people I know. In that sense, he was quite well-written. -

Quote:That's not really much of an excuse. If I told a customer that we could no longer maintain or extend their billing system because the people who originally wrote it no longer works at the company, we wouldn't have that customer any more.I don't know if we lost it, but I suspect the current dev team does not include any of the people that originally created it, which makes it problematic to maintain or extend.
The fact that their "gravitational constant" problem wasn't instantly reverted says a lot. -
Quote:Maybe it's just me not being super awesome, but in my experience most teams struggle with Calystix, not to mention trying it solo.Eh. His complaint about EBs in story arcs is one of those things that I just don't get. I've never been able to figure out how people have so much trouble soloing EBs. I've yet to meet the EB on *any* character who I can't kill by the simple expedient of a tray full of purples and reds. If you've built a character with so little damage output that you can't manage that, well, that's hardly the *game's* fault.

I'm sorry. Exploit? Aren't we setting the bar a little low?

YES SIR!
Recluse is all kinds of goofy, but he's a good arch villain dangit, and he's not a Statesman clone. -
They probably wish that they'd implemented diminishing returns on enhancements from the start.
I also think (or hope) they regret the decision to split the player base between two (now three) separate and, until recently, exclusive locations. -

I'm pretty OCD about my power tray setup. To the point where I screenshot the original setup when I respec, so I can get it back just right.
I haven't checked, but if my power trays had been cleared on all, or most, or even a few of my characters I'd be beyond pissed.
Good thing I have other games to play these days. -
Yeah. Don't get me started on Drea the Hook.
Standing there, conveniently as far away from the mayhem door as physically possible... grr. -
