As the owner of both collector editions, I would have zero problems with the following:
CoH Collector's Pack - 800 Paragon Points:- Prestige Power Slide Sprint power
- Cape of the Four Winds
- VIP/Destined One/Praetoria's Son/Praetoria's Daughter Badge
CoV Collector's Pack - 800 Paragon Points:- Arachnos Cape
- Arachnos Chest Symbol
Edit:
Also missing from the Paragon Market are the Good vs Evil Edition costumes, so the following bundle could be added:- Justice Costume Set - 400 Paragon Points
- Sinister Costume Set - 400 Paragon Points

NPC Conversions - The old Noble Savage thread from October 2010
I made a shortlist in this post.
First part: tight details. Longbow, Paragon Protectors. Tights have no clipping issues to speak of but people still make Longbow, Paragon Protectors using what patterns we do get anyway (one of the Longbow officers in new Mercy's starting arcs uses a PC pattern).
Second part: My only true 'request' is to finally get the Vanguard Backplate and thigh guards:
Back during the i10 beta when server transfers were first being tested; there was a glitch which allowed players to access certain NPC parts including the Vanguard belt with the thigh guards and the backplate. The thighguards were a second belt option and the backplate was a back detail although it ended up in capes at the time. These two are the only pieces left I really want.
I would eat a raw onion if this happened soon™
We need the rest of the VG armour, and we need it yesterday >_<
Oh, and while I think of it, PLEASE can we get proper WW2 style Military jackets? Y'know, trenchcoat with the actual jacket underneath with a belt over it, etc?
Like so;
-
Some very simple reuests here;
1) HD versions of all the current hairs and faces for Male, Female and Huge. The current legacy hair, and to a lesser extent faces, look so. Damn. OLD. It hurts!
2) More hair, especially for Male/Huge, but Female does need some help there too. And more faces that are on par with the Retro Sci Fi Male faces and the Bio-Luminescence and Organic armour faces. i.e. HD faces.
3) No more trying to use Normal Mapping on faces! I.e. the Steampunk faces and the Halloween faces. They look terrible and dive headfirst into the Uncanny Valley. Please, leave Normal mapping for costume parts where it works. Stop using it on faces!
That's it for me, other than keep up to the standard of parts you've been throwing out lately, Dink, they rock =] -
The male faces are fan-*tastic*. The female one will be, once the silly Normal Mapping gets taken off. We should know by now that Normal Mapping makes faces look horrible, mm'kay?

Super Packs were probably the devs' most recent definitive success. The Plummit survey asked players for their most wanted items for the next round of packs so I thought I'd start a new thread to generate ideas. What are MY most wanted items?
-A rare contact drop that gives access to a hidden story arc, as well as a badge for that arc's completion. I think players would salivate over this - more so than the black wolf pet - especially badge hunters. It's also gray enough to circumvent complaints of "paying for badges." Perhaps only the team leader would be eligible for the badge to prevent people from simply teaming with recipients in order to receive it.
-Rare drops for new capes and auras. I personally know a lot of players, myself included, who would drop a lot of change for a chance at a "draped cape" option - ie: High Collar without the collar.
-New costume set (Golden Age/Pulp gets my vote)
-New emotes/costume changes
-New vehicle options for the recently released Team Transport power (I want a Batmobile dammit!!)
We know of course that new ATEs will be included, but there's a LOT of room for exciting new items. What do YOU want to see included?
The inclusion of costume stuff in the freaking gamble packs was bad enough. Including more sets, sets that have asked for for a LONG time, mark you, AND contacts AND emotes AND capes auras?
There would be blood. There is no two ways about it. Locking costumes into luck of the draw with our ******* RNG is bad enough when it's a one off thing that no one reall expected.
No. /Unsigned. End of. -

I suspect however, that my threads are noticeable and interesting. They get a lot of responses and stay visible due to that.

Voted for #1, but would prefer neither. I, honestly, liked the OLD skin with Recluse and States.
#2 just looks stupid. I hate that picture, and I am NOT impressed with the fact it's going to be foisted on me as the new login screen, with no obvious option to change it. Yes, I know you can, but I don't know how since the change that forced the Freedom one as the default. -

I'm glad you enjoyed it, but I can't stand Twinshot. The arc is quirky enough to play through once, but I really don't like most of the characters and I REALLY don't like the unnecessary twist ending. Besides, the consists of staring at a dialogue every other spawn, to the point where it has almost no gameplay in it.
At least it's not Graves.....Aughhgh....*goes to clean fingers* -
Quote:No, the sword got broken by the guy he was fighting.Originally Posted by Tenzhi
It's a bit less impressive if you're only wielding a bit of a sword with your mouth rather than a whole sword. Unless he *broke* said sword with his teeth. Then he gets props.
SPOILERS:
He also stabs someone with the sword blade in his teeth after having lost both his arms.
I think that counts as pretty badass

When it comes to slotting something simple like Bots/Traps, I know where I am.
But I have no idea what the powers of the Beast pets are, what slotting does for them, and how really Time works in synergy with that.
So, I've knocked up a quick build, with the power selection and level picks where I am happy with them. I could just use some help knowing what to put in the Beast pets, attacks and some advice on the Time powers ideal slotting.
Any takers?

Quote:We don't have a 'totally different continuity' as much as 'delayed reaction' to events.Originally Posted by Thirty-Seven
I'm not much of an RPer... and I have never played on Union... but I keep wondering how it is that you folks have a totally different continuity than the one that is actually going on in-game? How the heck do new folks join you if they can't reference stuff they know? Is this a closed group thing?
Just curious for the sake of curiosity as I have seen a few threads pop up recently about events and things that... well... are being ignored or whatnot.
For example, when people had run the LGTF when it first came out, the Rikti War didn't just magically end. There were still very clearly Rikti around, Rikti strikes and the like.
However, when the Alpha slot stuff came out, it was moved on to the next stage. For instance, while before The Honoree had either not been present during TFs or had been teleported away. Now, with the continuation of canon, he was actually in Vanguard custody again. When DA went live, he is now working with VG, albeit still on a tight rein in case the Rikti control kicks in again.
There are also Traditionalists working with VG, the treaty got made, etc etc.
When States was removed in I23, then we were going to recognise that event as 'having happened'. As it is, well, yeah we have a bit of a pickle... -
So...I get to tier 8, finally get to use something that means I DON'T have to traipse miles to get to a bleeding Auction House....and then get penalised for it?
What part of Hell. Smegging. NO. does not compute?

Oh, sure. Let's give the Praetorians some land to settle on before we decide to lift a finger to help the Rikti Traditionalists. They've only been helping- at sometimes dire cost- to try and stop the war between the Rikti and Humans for years, while the Praetorians just walk through life in an Enriche fueled fugue, turning a blind eye to atrocities and dangers all around them.
"Earth Is For Humans" indeed. Sheesh.

Quote:No, no it really wouldn't. Especially when you have to side-swap if you want Patron powers on Hero, despite their being no good reason that any character couldn't have that stuff.

It would be awesome if they were story Arc Locked like the Patron Power Pools.
