Quote:I fully agree on Stone Spears. It's an awesome power but would of course fit in better with a ranged set. That being said I see no reason it couldn't be in this set if no primary were to be created.Originally Posted by warden_de_dios
If blasters are getting a Earth secondary and not a Earth primary there are certain Iconic powers I'd like to see get used. They look awesome on my earth/earth dom.
T1: Stone Spears
T7: Stalagmite
T5: Power Boost
T6: Smoke (running out of ideas)
T9: Foot Stomp
Stalagmites, no way it will happen. At least not and do damage. It is way too good of a stun for a blaster.
Power Boost is possible but so far it seems like that has been a /energy only thing for blasters. Plus it would only effect Stone Cage, Fault/Fissure, and Quicksand. Seems wasteful to me. (not counting primary powers)
Smoke and Foot Stomp. Both are good powers but neither are /Earth. Tremor is more fitting to the theme and honestly I get tired of stomping my foot. Ice does it, SS does it, PB's do it. Tremor may have the same old Total Focus animation but I see that less than I do stomps personally. -
Quote:Precisely, I mean there's already Sonic, and Radiation that have no obvious secondary option. Having a secondary with no obvious primary to go with it doesn't seem like that big of a deal to me.Originally Posted by Gilia
I like the idea and would like to see an Earth Blast primary and Earth mastery ancillary! The lack of thematic pairs is the only problem I see off hand, but as you said we're on Blaster secondaries and there's not much in the way of obvious themes.
I simply want to see more secondaries for Blasters, because I am so so so tired of the /Energy and /Devices as the only obvious secondaries with a lot of the non elemental primaries. Especially with the weapon sets. -
Quote:Clever but not the point. Blasters -need- more secondaries. I for one am honestly bored of the ones they have. I can think of many non pure(earth/earth/earth) builds I would love to do on a blaster.Originally Posted by Doctor_Kumquat
Earth Manipulation exists - you just need to build your blaster in the Rogue Isles, where they are called Dominators instead. I know my Fire/Earth blapper gets the job done in style.

Nice drawing Liz, better than anything I could ever dream of managing.
One of these days I swear I will catch a livestream. -
I'm not sure I'd want to drink Brass Plot... would feel like I was part of something bigger... like a plan, or a scheme. No those words aren't quite right. Hmmm...

I've had an issue with the low number of blaster secondaries available for the longest time and looking into it the only real secondary possibilities without something completely new are Dark, Kinetic, Stone, & Martial arts/Super Strength. As I see it though Dark is unlikely because of high mitigation & MA/SS b/c it seems a bit odd as a blaster set to me.
So it popped into my head what would/could be in /Earth on a blaster. This is what I came up with. They'd work just like the original versions with of course adjusted numbers and effects to balance with other blaster sets. But i know I personally would kill for something NEW to use as a secondary.
Tier 1: Stone Cage
Tier 2: Stone Fists(or Stone Spears)
Tier 3: Stone Mallet
Tier 4: Quicksand
Tier 5: Build Up
Tier 6: Heavy Mallet
Tier 7: Fault(or Fissure)
Tier 8: Mud Pots
Tier 9: Tremor
Lemme know what you think. I'm just spit ballin here out of boredom and deep seated desire for more secondaries.
Edit: Changes cages to cage as it was meant to be. Added Stone Spears as option for tier 2. -
Quote:I'm aware there is a lot of AoE here but really... when you make up non AoE grenades lemme knowOriginally Posted by JuliusSeizure
You have way too many AoE attacks in there. They are generally limited to 1 PBAoE and one ranged cone.
Outside that I was mostly putting this up out of boredom and the simple fact I want a non-elemental Dominator set. Plus wielding that awesomely huge Grenade Launcher the SWAT have would make me squee like a schoolgirl.
I'm aware balance would be an issue but as I see it sure there would be a TON of AoE but the overall Dmg would honestly be lacking compared to any set with a few good Melee powers. Sure you could mow through a mob of minions like no tomorrow but a Boss or AV would be a serious issue. Especially for endurance bars. I can almost hear them weeping at just th thought of how much these AoE's would cost. -
I had a random thought about Doms and the lack of "natural" powersets for them but rather than just take AR or DP and make a controll-y version why not make use of the Grenade Launcher weapon type we see a few enemies use and employ an all Grenade powerset pair. It would be new enough to be its own set but recognizable enough and use existent animations to be easily implemented
Grenadier Assualt
Tier 1) Slug (Single Target. Moderate Dmg Smash, Knockdown) Sorta like the AR power but just a slug launched into a person from the grenade launcher.
Tier 2) Pummel (Single Target. Moderate Dmg Smash, Disorient) Ya hit em with the launcher in the head.
Tier 3) Fragmentation Grenade (AoE. Moderate Dmg Smash/Lethal, Knockdown) The Standard Grenade power like in AR.
Tier 4) Photon Grenade (AoE. Moderate Dmg Energy/Smash, -to hit) Like the one Robotics MM's get.
Tier 5) Poison Gas Grenade (AoE. Heavy DoT Toxic) Like the venom grenade without hte debuff.
Tier 6) Shrapnel Grenade (AoE. Minor Dmg Lethal/Smash, DoT Lethal) A Frag grenade built to launch shrapnel at high velocity and inflict lasting wounds.
Tier 7) Incendiary Grenade (Location AoE. Heavy DoT Fire) A grenade that creates a Burn patch.
Tier 8) Concussion Grenade (AoE. Heavy Dmg Smashing/Energy) A sonic Burst Grenade.
Tier 9) Acid Grenade (AoE. Minor DoT Toxic, -Def, -Res) Like the Trick Arrow power but with a grenade.
Grenadier Control
Tier 1) Beanbag (Single Target Stun, Minor Dmg Smash) Just like the AR power.
Tier 2) EMP Grenade (Single Target Hold Minor Dmg Energy) Much like the Longbow Spec Ops power but with a little damage.
Tier 3) Wide-Area Web Grenade (AoE Immobilize) Exactly like the Wolf Spider SoA version.
Tier 4) Smoke Grenade (AoE -to hit -Perception) Much like the widow version or the Devices power.
Tier 5) Repulsion Grenade (AoE Knockback, Minor Dmg Smash) A grenade that upon impact releases a blast of force. Like Repulsion Bomb from force felds.
Tier 6) Tear Gas Grenade (AoE Hold [Choke]) Just liek the Longbow mech, Vanguard heavy has.
Tier 7) Glue Grenade (Location AoE, -Spd -Rech -Fly -Jump) The SWAT equalizer power.
Tier 8) Stun(Or flash bang) Grenade (AoE Disorient, Minor Dmg Smash) Much like the Mercenaries version except no debuff.
Tier 9) Auto Turret (Summon Turret: Moderate Dmg Lethal) Just like the Devices power.
Thoughts? Gripes? Am I a moron? -
Love all the work you've done so far. Lots of good stuff. Figure I'll throw one of my mains in the ring even if I am way down the ladder. Hope you like my Favorite of my heroes.
Some reference Pics. She's a Longbow member so if I had the vet rewards for it she'd have the freedom corp logo on her chest but I digress.

I say option one all the way. I can see where some people say 'this piece being updated ruins my topless X' but all in all that's not what they want you to be able to do. I think unless "shinyness" is added or glows then the piece doesn't need a legacy option anymore. I'd like to see a lot of the hats, jackets, & gloves/boots get updated. Like the "Conical" just give us the one the Tsoo have please, it's SO much better htna the cone on your head.

Most of these have probably been said but alas here is the list of things I'd like to see alternate animations for.
* Eye-beam powers. (Glinting eye, X-Ray Beam, & Ebon Eye)
* "Foot Stomp" powers. (Frozen Aura, Solar Flare, Dwarf Flare.)
- Fist slams for any of these it's possible for. Especially Dwarf Flare, I would love seeing that.
* Total Focus Powers. (Total Focus, Incandescent Strike, Thunder Strike, & Tremor)
- Especially Tremor. I would like to see a version where you slam your big hammer into the ground and shake the earth.
* Toss something Powers. (Hurl Boulder, & Hurl.)
- I would like to see options on what you toss. Let us choose to toss rocks, boulders, crystal, lava rock, or just chunks of garbage.
* Claws. I'd like to see more left handed use.
* The three far too alike Weapon sets. (Broad Sword, Battle Axe, & War Mace.)
- These three sets badly need different animations. I like the current ones but I don't like the idea of wielding a Sword, Axe, & Mace in exactly the same manner.
* Sword elementals. (Fire Melee, Ice Melee) I'd like to see the non-sword options as well as adding sword options to other sets like dark, & electric.
* Flailing spikes of doom. (Barb Swipe) Do I need to say more?
* Gotta poo squat. (Almost all Assassin Strikes) If I could not do that I may like more of the stalker sets more. -
Welcome to the boards. Gotta be honest. Glad to see more villain red names. Although when I read the title I was hoping for the beginning of a lot of Black Scorpion's dialog "FEAR ME!"

I would like to see some more steam punk type weapons. This was an earlier suggestion that I liked.
I am an avid fan of Steam punk and have several characters in the genre. If there was at least on pistol grouping that fit the bill it's be awesome. Heck even a Nemesis themed pistol or two would work! -

I love the look of this. Dark Astoria is a personal fav as far as zones goes. I love the reverse shadows and the fog. The lack of music is awesome too. It's just a perfect mood setter. -
I am signing up "Deaths Shadows"
Our base architect is me @Succulent Abyss -
Those are some purdy pikatures!

<3 that pic with all my heart! Love that movie and the cartoon as well. Was all forms of win as is your rendition.

Big congratz on the job! Hope you enjoy it.

I've been watching this thread and have a toon that I think you may enjoy drawing. She is a claws/Willpower brute. Her powers are tied in with the Rularuu from the shadow shard.
In the game I can't really represent her powers the way I imagined them but this pic is as close as it comes. She is supposed to be somewhat like venom in the texture of her suit and the way that it just sorta comes from nowhere on her. The claws are Rularuu's Talons. My favorite weapon in the game. The biggest difference from the pic to the version in my head is that it would also have scattered yellow Rularuu esque eyes on the black junk. Sort of like this:
If ya like the concept or you need more info let me know. -
That is one of the most badass fascist scumbags I've ever seen! Love the way you did the pose and the flag in the BG. All very nice.
-
Wow I just happened upon this thread haven't been on the new forums much yet. I love the work you've done. It is very well put together and gotta love the color. Are you still doing more?
-
The base doth have power and storage. If anyone want to toss 5 sets of Titanium shards, Fortunes, and Temporal Analyzers that would do the trick. Or just let me know on tuesday and I'll take em off yer hands fer ye.
