    New Book

    Is this the first book in a new series, or is it book six in a series despite appearing to be a book one?
  2. I don't wish that they never happened, but I wish there was more focus on Procs and that global bonuses were far more limited (for instance, having a cap of 15% or so on Defense bonuses, and similar caps on Recharge/Accuracy/Etc.).
  3. I would want the collar for both genders. And the split boots pictured with the collar as well. Not to mention boots and gloves with rings.

    I see the potential for a bulky space garb (space suits) and sleeker space garb (in-atmosphere future-wear) set here, both of which could pretty well be shared between genders. The latter set would mostly be gloves/boots/belts/accessories that pair well with tights. The only piece that might necessarily be female-specific is a ringed skirt.

    Animal Control

    I would like to see a set of this nature. Probably with dogs/wolves as the tier 1 pets, a lion and a tiger as the tier 2 pets, and a bear as the tier 3 pet.

    Ranged attacks could be a swarm of insects DoT, a single target hawk/eagle attack, and a cone of bats.

    Unique power in the set could be a placeable click or PBAoE toggle field of vermin.

    Is it really that much different than other ranged sets? If so, I hadn't noticed.

Maybe it's a bug, the complaints about SR's taunt only began after Tankers got it.
    Could be. I haven't progressed far enough along with my tanker that it's become noticeable one way or the other. And it's been so long since I played it (up to 106 hours of Skyrim now :P ) that I apparently got confused about Lucky and Evasion and which one was the toggle.

    I agree, though it should probably have a slightly longer range than normal melee attacks.
  8. You're missing Lucky. And doesn't it have a taunt aura on Brutes and Tanks that's at least as (in)effective as Willpower's?

    I wouldn't mind seeing some sort of +HP effect, but I'd be even more interested in seeing an Endurance discount (though I think that could potentially be put into Quickness).

    Like in casting Spider-Man!

    ...now, complaints about not casting to match the counterparts.

    Seems to be some back and forth thinking on this subject.
    For me it's generally a matter of aesthetics, a sense of which is developed to different extents with different characters/series. The pictured characters from Akira (and a lot of other anime/manga, for that matter), for instance, could be of European and/or Asian descent just judging from their presented appearance. But without having that picture on hand I would only have the vaguest sense of what I wanted to see because I'm not a big fan of Akira and it's been many years since I've even seen it.
  10. Aside from being disappointed by the lack of the jacket and pants for females, I was disappointed that there was no appropriate dress bottom to go with the female costume set. It looked like it needed something ruffly.

    I'm disappointed that the male boots only seem to exist with pants.

    I'm disappointed in the lack of a western rifle.

    I'm disappointed by the ugly pistols.

    With the simple act of wearing it backwards, a thick bathrobe is exactly the same as those blankets-with-sleeves. Possibly even better if the robe is particularly thick and luxurious.
  12. Banished Pantheon Totems. They're like big wood golems.

    That's something I'd like to see. But I think it would make Force Fields need a revamp even more.

    Were his eyes bloodshot? Did he keep twitching and looking like he was trying to eat his own face? Have trouble constructing coherent sentences?
  15. Yeah, Thundercats has been really good. And I *really* like the elephant monks.

    I fully agree with that position.
    Aren't there badges associated with the various Paragon Reward tiers? Can't one buy one's self up the Tier ladder by purchasing enough points and getting the associated tokens?
  18. Honestly, I'm not attached to any of them. They could kill them all off and I'd hardly notice.
  19. We've seen him already, of course, in numerous set pics. I dislike the mask, but the only thing it would take to make me not dislike it is to attach red lenses.
  20. I expect something that will be ridiculously difficult, ridiculously tedious, or both. The end result likely being that I avoid it because sitting in a 5 minute queue for two hours and maybe getting to participate in a single iTrial will still seem the more lucrative option.

    And I'd call that an optimistic outlook.

    I'm sure you intended that to have something to do with an item being simultaneously free and paid for...

    When they go out shopping for things they're supposedly getting for free? They're either spending a limited resource on it or they're getting it free - you can't have it both ways.

    16 cores anyone?

    I'm referring to "flops" in the context of the linked article. They were PETAflops. It was a pun, you see.

    Have you tried queueing for the First Available Trial? I'm a VIP and after Thursday's patch I was unable to directly select the DfB trial, but I was able to get to it by queueing for the First Available Trial. I was kind of wondering if they were trying to restrict the level on it.
  25. Unless they're releasing a single pistol powerset sometime soon, it seems pretty asinine to make you craft the weapon twice in order to have a matched set.
