    FT... if you're not using this as your boss "killer", well, I guess Burn is available, but damn, it's gonna take a while for any hard targets to go down w/o your best DPA attack. And as Aett points out, grab an epic hold and insta-hold that boss who's not flopping. Anyway, one boss not flopping isn't bothering any of my tankers.
    If I'm fighting bosses in a mission, I'm either on a team or managed to run into a Malta spawn with the power to cheat a boss into my solo mission (stupid Haxules Lts).

    EDIT: Silly me, overlooking the meaning of FT abbreviation. Yah, I'm planning on focussing on AoE.

    Interesting break down. So, both of the sword attacks suck, but Greater Ice Sword sucks more. Maybe I'll just do something crazy and skip them both.
  3. Fire Armor. Stemmed from a sudden urge to Ice Patch Burn.
  4. If one were inclined to skip one of the attacks? Ice Sword?
  5. Knockback is okay, but KnockUP is awesome!

    She's more of a Wonder Woman's mother candidate these days, I'd say.

    That's the opposite of it being okay. Watch:

    1: Get rid of PVP altogether.

    2: Make Recipes and salvage available from vendors at reasonable Inf prices.

    3: Make Giant Monsters worth fighting.

    4: Get rid of all the extraneous forms of currency.

    5: Create Toxic blast, control, melee, and armor sets, as well as a Slimes Mastermind primary.
  8. I wouldn't mind seeing Olivia Wilde in the role, personally.
  9. Personally, I still want a Slimes Mastermind with pets similar to the Hydra and some pure Toxic attacks. I would, of course, pair it with /Poison.

    I like Jonathan Coulton in general, but that was a meandering mess of horribleness. Now, if he let Mr. B the Gentleman Rhymer handle the rap parts and popped in for the choruses it might make for a winning cover.
  11. It is about the journey, not the destination, but for me that has nothing to do with levels. Levels are merely part of constructing an avatar to take the journey. I could start with a level 50 and still potentially be interested in making the journey of gameplay. Indeed, levels are more often an obstacle that hinders my enjoyment of the journey than anything else.
  12. Could it be Gauntlet or a slotted proc?

    If your AoE clustering involves Wide Area Web Grenade, isn't the knockback kinda moot either way given that WAWG gives the mobs a huge anti-KB protection?
  14. Hasn't the TARDIS been inside itself before? I seem to recall it happening before. Or was it the Master's TARDIS inside of the TARDIS while the TARDIS was also inside the Master's? Or did it happen both ways previously? Someone with a better memory help me out.

    Paul: The Movie

    Every trailer I've seen makes me think "Hey look, American Dad's Roger is tooling around with Simon Pegg in an RV"... this does not entice me to want to see the movie.
  17. That costume looks terrible. Especially the pants and boots. I suppose I should just be happy they gave her black hair...

    I don't believe the devs have ever said about powerset respecs, for instance, "In Short; Won't happen due to exploitation." Maybe I was sick that day. I missed the part where they made laughable assertions about their powersets being so complex as to require multiple levels of painstaking combat to figure out how to play in order to support the aforementioned notion as well.

    Since I didn't make any such argument this time, this isn't ANY time that I've made the argument - first, second, or otherwise. I don't recall making any such argument before, either, but que sera.

    Go right ahead. Who am I to stop you from invalidating your own opinion?

    No. What I believe is that "the fact that inherent fitness was added" means that certain suggestions aren't as adamantly impossible as some naysayers would assert, even if they are evidenced to be highly improbable.

    I also believe that the Suggestions forum is largely ignored by anyone who matters, so it's not important if suggestions are inevitably repeated (or it's important that they *are* repeated, depending on POV).

    Truth, for years the devs said no to inherent Fitness.

    Lie, for years the devs said no to power customization.

    Unfortunately for Tenzhi a large percentage of the players in this game have been here for 5, 6, 7 years and have no qualms debunking his version of what was said.
    I'm one of those players. And I thought you were far more literate than that. I never said the devs said no to power customization, I merely said the idea was often shot down when brought up. Usually, it was shot down by players pointing out that it wasn't feasible for various reasons much as they do with powerset respecs.
  23. You're far luckier than I would ever be.

  25. Perhaps having nearly 700 PMs in your box ripped a hole in the space/time continuum...

    If I get more than 5 I start getting annoyed at the clutter and have to delete some.
