As a note, I know with the Cold defender/corruptor Ice shields, you can change the fx in the costume designer to make them considerably less obtrusive. Change colors to variants of grey, and they become barely visible. I haven't tried this with the Epic pool, I don't know if its possible for epic pool powers. -

Just remember your blue Corruptor brothers who don't have a Scorpion Shield analog in their APPs.
You may be an ice cube but at least Masterminds have that option. -

That does basically sum up what it looked like originally, actually.
EDIT: Oh my lord, I think I found one.
Wtf? -
Quote:I don't really see how it could get much more ice cube-y than it is now without being ridiculous to the point that even a legally blind designer could see that it's gone beyond "Frozen Armor" and just become "Ice with a person somewhere in it."Originally Posted by Father Xmas
Well it is a lot less ice cubie than it was originally.

Excuse me, when I said Masterminds I meant Hero Masterminds. I don't care to switch to villain side just so I can swing a mace around like a raving lunatic.

Quote:Ah, but unless I (along with the various fan wikis) am mistaken, Masterminds do not get Mace Mastery as a choice. Thus, my alternative is Field Mastery, unless I wish to get a completely illogical- and shield-less- epic power pool to match my Beast/Storm Mastermind.Originally Posted by Ogi
Mace Mastery has a defense shield, Scorpion Shield, like Frozen Armor, but without the intrusive ice block.
Now if only corruptors had Chill Mastery or at least a blue side defense toggle... -
Quote:Yeah, I think I'm probably going to just go with Field Mastery on my MM then, to avoid being an ice cube forever. I spend a great deal of time on my costumes, and I would rather they not be completely obscured by the rather unflattering Frozen Armor graphic.Originally Posted by Aett_Thorn
Yes, you will look like an ice cube.
No, there is no way to only suppress this one effect.
Edit -> I've thought for a while now that Frozen Armor needs, as part of power customization, a Hoarfrost-y version of the powers. Basically, a less intrusive visual form that still sticks to the theme. I think that Ice Armor, and by extension the ancillaries that have it, have suffered in popularity because of the graphics. -
If I recall correctly, Frozen Armor is the one that makes you look like you're encased in ice cubes. Is this true, and, if so, is there some way to disable this visual effect on an epic power set, aside from the slash command that locally removes visual effects?
