I always saw Focus as that common anime/manga trope of slashing so fast and hard that you send a compressed "blade" of air at the opponent.

The whatever-a-rangs do explain Shockwave's animation and fx better, though.

Am I the only one that likes the ranged attacks thematically and for combat?

Granted Shockwave doesn't look all too great considering how slow the character's arm moves, but Focus looks nice.

"What crazy antics will old man Yin get into this year?"
*sitcom laugh track*

I definitely like the thinking behind this powerset - an archetype primary/secondary version of a related pool set and a natural/psyhic one.

Would this be what the power table looks like?

1. Make throw-away character.
2. Email all cash to said character and delete.
3. ???
4. Anti-Profit.

If memory serves, yes it would. I slotted it into Stamina once just for the lulz, though I can't remember if it worked. Dunno' if they fixed it or not, either.

My favorite so far is Operative Jenkins as a reference to Leeroy Jenkins.

Also, the Going Rogue references to Half-Life; most notably, the Lambda Sector neighborhood of Neutropolis and Mr. G.

(Even though Assault isn't Manipulation, I'm going to bet on it: inb4 Saist.)

Are you proposing a slightly debuffed Rage for the set, or are you suggesting a Build Up power that just shares the name? The former would probably cause cries of overpowering Dominators.

Also, Hand Clap comes a bit early, if it's going to be in the set, at least if you ask me.
And I'm sure people will have gripes with Foot Stomp, but given the nature of Psychic Shockwave, I'll leave other people who know more on assault sets to talk about that one.

Removing -fly might be abusable. You'd lose mez protection if a [not nice person] had Group Fly toggled.

Hmm... have you tried going behind that pillar you are facing and angling your camera to see the glowie, then clicking it? You don't need line-of-sight for glowie collection.

Just my two cents on possible work-arounds for this particular bugged mission objective in your screenshot.

I'd like to apply for a teaching position in Personal Space 101. I already have my first lesson-plan outlined for educating the civilian masses on why it is dangerous to hold your escort's shoulder while they are fending off your attackers, a lesson in etiquette I like to call mommy and daddy are talking right now.

It doesn't seem credible that we'd actually be able to achieve that. It's fun to sweep the first mission just to pat your virtual back on how awesome you did, but if it was normal gameplay then it would get boring.

Having Punch-Haymaker be the best method of damage-dealing gets old... fast.

(To avoid confusion, I'm purposely hotlinking to this no-hotlinking image.)

There are two options under the pallette that make all the colors in that powerset or all the colors in your build use the same options. You might have had them checked.

Speaking of the latter, don't we also have Lost and Snake designations, or is that based on faction name?

eg: Lost Curing Wand and Snake-b-Gone

Are you fighting them as Elite Bosses, or actual Arch Villains? The latter wasn't really meant to be solo'd.

EDIT: If it's Ghost Widow, then well... good luck.

"You've earned eight more hours towards your next mez badge? Have you been sleeping since I left for work this morning?!"

"Don't worry, dude, she's oblivious to your crush on her; she's missed every Tip she's ever gotten!"

It seems to have something to do with logging out, zoning, and losing connection to the mapserver.

You can log out instantly if you use quit when you've lost connection to the mapserver, and as far as I can tell, trying to zone (hospital, ouroboros, base, etc.) while the logout timer is going drops your connection to the mapserver.

So pressing a key "reminds" the game that it's logging out while "mapserver disconnect" is being displayed, to which it responds with by insta-logging.

I know this because I do it a lot when I am tired of dying on a character mid-mission.

/signed as I do every time it's suggested

I'm fairly certain that is the joke. >_>

It's not the actual sets per se, it's just that only up to five of the exact same number count. eg: if you slotted four Doctored Wounds and three Red Fortune (both of which have 5% recharge bonus), the recharge bonus would only count the first five of them.

EDIT: Don't forget, also, that some specific enhancements such as purple sets are marked as "only one per build."
