    I wouldn't say this looks evil in any way...

    I will only claim 3 Neener Points on this one instead of 5, since you posted an informative link as well.

    Thaaaaank-ya.

    Sheesh, Like a Chin & Dale cartoon in this thread, LOL.

    Actually, it sounds more like a Mac and Tosh (aka Goofy Gophers...Warner Brothers) moment than a Chip and Dale moment.

    Of course, by the time you get to the patron respec, you are pretty much "through" anyway. If you made it that far without exhausting all the other options, chances are, the patspec will just be another little shiney to have in your info, and will go unused.

    So by that time, it is pretty much a non-issue.

    Also, the big reason that villains get that extra is because heroes unlock the Epic pools automatically at 41, whereas villains have to go through one of the patron arcs, which may take them beyond 41 by the time they complete it, and thus miss out on the chance to have their first patron power at 41.
  7. The free respec shows when you log in as an "Unused respec, just like the Freespecs we get each issue. However, it does stack with the freespec.

    the closest alternative to this is sprint, swift and hurdle. in effect I still take the same number of powers to get as close to on par with others travel abilities but still lacking and sets are the only way to bridge that gap. I was looking forward to slotting winters gift into sprint because of the + jump and + run components. the - end mearly negated the need to keep sprint on (not that it was a big deal end wise)

    that combination along with jump IO in hurdle and run IO in swift would have made a natural travel power feasable. instead pure natural characters are screwed.
    As I suggested earlier, in case you missed it, go ahead and grab Combat Jumping. It can take Universal Travel sets, and if you are using Ninja Run as part of you natural concept, then Combat Jumping should fit in with it just as believably (perhaps even moreso than Ninja Run).

    Must be due to Professor Echo messing with the time stream or something.

    Except the original version claimed it was the love of money, not money itself that is the root of all evil.

  12. When I lead teams, I expect 2 things:

    1 - Everyone contributes to the team by making good use of their diverse powers.

    2 - If you are a "support type", when you have no need to be using your support powers (like everyone is properly buffed and no one is severely hurt for example), you get in there and fight. Don't worry about whether or not you add that much damage to the fray, just help kill something.


    Or in other words, to quote my Mercs Mastermind (who lifted this quote from a good ol' Scifi shoot em up...)

    If they did that, then they would have to take away some other desirable feature of the enhancement, like for example, "Losing the benefit from the enhancement if the power it is in is not available due to exemplaring".

    That is a tradeoff I would not be willing to make, considering I have several characters that aren't getting a power that can take it until their 20s.

    If you do not want to replace one of the other Winter's Gifts in order to slot the Slow Resist, then put another slot into whatever power is taking the set. For example, I am working with my Dark/WP Scrapper on Protector now, and I went ahead and added a second slot to his Super Speed. That way he does not lose the Run Speed enhancer in it in order to get the Slow Resist.

    And at 31, I will be putting a third slot into Super Speed so he can have a full WG set (won't be slotted until 32 though, since I tend to have a fondness for the number 35. )

    Now I need to log in my Kin/Electric Defender and have her get the last five levels she needs to reach 35 so that she can buy the other 2 Winter's Gifts my Scrapper needs, due to only being able to buy them at the character's current level. (The Slow Resist remains at 10 though, since that one does lose its benefit if exemped more than 3 levels below the level of the enhancer.)

    What are your primary and secondary powersets? There is a slim possibility that one of those will have a power that can take Universal Travel sets. Not all powers that take UT are travel powers.

    Also, taking Combat Jumping shouldn't blow your all natural concept out of the water (no moreso than the Ninja Run would). Grab that and you can slot the WG.

    Easy enough to get to.

    I agree. And we can make it real easy on them if they want to please us.

    I make the suggestions, and everyone from this area automatically agrees with me. Fair enough?

    That happened close to 3 years ago when I made Willowpaw (Kin/Electric Defender) and Miss de Meowner (Thugs/Dark Mastermind) on Virtue.

    Yeesh. I never claimed that would be a bad thing (never claimed it would be good either. I'm pretty much "like, whatever" about whether or not some entity loses a trademark due to it becoming used generically.)

    Now, could you pass me a couple Aspirin?
