    For me it's been the constant jerking around of the Juggernaut.

    I would've been much happier if Cain Marko had, in fact, completely gotten rid of Cyttorak during those shenanigans with Gomurr the Ancient and Doctor Strange when he escaped from the gem after Onslaught had locked him inside of it. All the ups and downs he's gone through with Cyttorak yanking his cosmic leash are annoying.

    Edit: No sooner did I post this than I changed my mind and re-rolled him as Demon/Storm. Same costume though.
    Surprised you didn't use the Terra Fire version, since the pattern on it seems to match up nicely with the CoT patterns.

    Since he had no kayak, I assumed he also had no reason to live.
  4. I don't think the Fitness movement powers take sets any more.

    Putting aside that I run into a great deal of clipping with numerous pieces in the costume creator as-is, I doubt the hats would have much to clip with (or, at least, much more than any other hats).

    I rarely use the drive-thru as it is.

    I believe they're the same in that regard. And they're both the same as Superspeed, stealth-wise.

    I don't want a second power, I just want better control over the current flight+phase shift that they call teleport. The current travel-in-a-straight-line-to-the-full-range-unless-there's-a-nearby-surface-that-DOESN'T-give-you-a-red-ring method sucks. Unfortunately, I've had a few characters who required it. If the higher tier pool powers didn't have ridiculous prerequisites, and they hadn't killed Phase Shift, I might take actual Flight and Phase Shift in lieu of Teleport.

    Now, this isn't you, but I have found most people that complain about our teleport just don't understand how easy simple and fast it is to just bind a key to the teleport power, such as the E key for example.
    For me, it's the aiming with the mouse that annoys me. There's no bind to fix that, methinks. I similarly hate click-to-move in MMOs, much preferring keyboard/joystick movement.

    Whether toggled or clicked, they would still come running when you hit them with it.

    Silly? Compared to domino mask and hairband ears?

  11. There are also mastery systems. Where using a skill increases your abilities in that skill. Increasing a skill (or combination of skills) to a certain point can unlock other skills (both skills that branch off from the initial skill or new categories of skills with their own branches).

    The hood isn't really different enough from other hoods for me to bother. But I might buy that belt and use it as a martial artist sash.
  13. So we don't get the awesome nuclear magic reactor belt or cool wizard hats? I am disappoint.

    Jump Kick?

    Despite having a substantially lower chance to knockup, Jump Kick takes Knockback enhancements and sets whereas Air Superiority does not. This has made it the preferable choice for me once or twice.

    And I personally like the animation for some characters, though it's not what I pictured when I first read the words "Jump Kick".

    I much prefer invisaflight that I can instantly go into, precisely control, and then come out of without hovering in place for a second or two to invisaflight that only moves in imprecise straight lines with a somewhat annoying beginning animation and a lengthy bit of hovering in place afterwards. And it is just quick bursts of straight line flight in CoH. If you're paying attention to someone doing it who has a lot of power effects on them, you can even see the power effects streak off along the flight path.

    Which brings me to another type of power that annoys me - click-n-stick powers. With many of them I wish I had the option to just fire the power off at whatever PC/NPC I'm targeting.

    Although with slotting the duration can be a bit longer than the taunt... Of course, that's probably unnecessary if it pulses every few seconds (and hits).
  17. Was Cesar Romero really "unconsciously psychotic", or did he just paint over his moustache?

    Or he may have just gotten a concussion from the initial transfer.
    It seems to me that Donna is pretty good evidence that the human brain can't contain and access that sort of information for long.
  19. I've never participated in a Tanker Tuesday. Didn't even notice their existence until sometime in the last year or so.

    I've also never had more than 100 million Inf on any of my characters. But I don't think I'm hardcore enough for it, and I don't play on Champion.
  20. You're right. This needs to be fixed. They'll have to patch the noob right out of your friend.

    There may have been Silence around.
  22. Should be relatively easy to achieve if one was content to do Sewer Trials all the way to 50.

    It would seem that he's talking about his robot and other such inorganic) *characters* being revived by the power. As if it's not bad enough they're already saddled with that exaggerated breathing animation.
  24. Gah! Smiling Batman is Nightmare Fuel!

    Fitness

    Fitness was made to be inherent at level 2. Characters with the old version of Fitness still have it (and not the inherent version) unless/until they respec.
