8.) What is being done to compensate (if anything) the Stalkers that could one-shot? How about the Brutes that can one-shot?

[/ QUOTE ]
No compensation is being given, nor is it warranted.

In my opinion, the one-shot code should apply to pve only (unless someone can come up with a good reason to have it impact pvp).

It is PvE and PvP for a variety of reasons.

I am unclear. Why is one shotting a mob in PvE a "bad" thing? I get a great feeling when running a brute into a group of even cons and fighting. After a min or so I can 1 shot some of them with high damage attack (like Knockout Blow). It seems appropriate to do this with the description of the power and the description of the character. This makes me feel like I am in the comics. I do see how this would make a solo player level faster nor how it would have a negative impact on other players. In a group setting you may be able to level faster but you are also distributing the XP among multiple players so it would not seem that it really makes you level that much faster. And it seems very Super to one shot minions. So why is this being changed?

I have 2 that I am working on. A SS/INV and a Dark/Dark.

My first concept in CoH was an SS/INV character. Unfortunatly that did not work out as SS was restricted to Tanks and my damage output sucked. I'm much happier with the Brute.

The Dark/Dark is an ok character, however I expect that I'll delete him before 20th. While the character is ok it just doesn't give me that SMASH feel that SS does.

Add a long timer and drop other negative effects.

I have to say that I was disappointed with this event. The reason was that I work and by the time I was able to play (8:00 PM Eastern US Time) the event was over. At least I found nothing in any of the zones I visted.

These events should either be done over weekends, when the majority of players have a chance to participate, or go on for 24 hours so that everyone gets a chance to participate.

Letter to the Editor.

I just have to say that I agree with this article whole heartedly. Not only is this a danger to those that it is used on but tests have proven that the chemical does not break down and that it may be leaking into the aquafier. In addition, I have seen several patients who are not criminals but have been "rescued" by heroes using these chemicals who are reporting similiar symptoms. My data shows a direct coorelation between the increased rate of cancer and the use of these chemicals. A ban on these chemicals and other similiar chemicals should be enacted until a comprehensive study of the long term effects can be carried out.

Steve Summner grew up in Paragon City. He was there when the Rikti invasion happened. He and his family were one of the lucky few. They were able to get to safety before anything happened to any of them.

After the invasion Steve and his parents went back to there home. They restarted there life the same as before. but everything was not the same, they would look over there shoulders, they looked at the force walls, they looked at the other people on the streets. They all felt it, they were all changed from the invasion.

Steve decided to do something about it. He had felt insecure, out of touch, since the invasion. He started taking martial arts. He attened a local martial arts class. Several of the other students were classmates from school who felt similiar to Steve.

There teacher, Master Mark, taught a form of Martial Arts he had used while in the military. Master Mark added some military training to the normal Martial Arts that he taught.

Steve became a top student of Master Mark. he was the best student in his class. He won several trophies from regional contests. He won his black belt before any of the others in his class.

After graduation Steve kept training with Master Mark. He became one of the best young martial artists in the city. After he had won his 3rd Black Belt Marster Mark asked if would like to take part in a more advanced class. Steve told Master Mark that he was honored and would do his best in the new class. Master Mark told him to come to a place in the heart of the city later that night.

Steve had brought his family as he had for all of his big events. He had thought that this was no different but he was wrong. Master Mark was part of the 5th Column. All of the training that he had given Steve was to benefit the 5th Column. This was to be Steve induction into the 5th Column.

Steve could not believe his eyes. The teacher he thought that he knew had betrayed him. Steve refused and tried to escape. But they held his family and he could not leave them.

The person in charge ordered Masater Mark to dispose of them. All but a small contingent left the building. Master Mark told Steve that he had one chance, he could change his mind and Master Mark would spare his family. Steve had other things in mind. He refused and challendged Master Mark on the spot.

At first Master Mark refused, he said that he had no need to dirty his hands. But Steve had learned his lessons well from Master Mark, he threw insult after insult until Master Mark could take it no more and accepted the challenge.

but Steve had learned all of his skills from Master Mark and Master Mark had not taught Steve everything that he knew. Mster Mark easily defeated Steve. He was ready to put them all to death when fate steped in. Or shoudl I say through...
