He was really fond of Worm Holing stuff all over the map because he was "saving" everyone.

He single handedly flung everything except the squid nicti off the temple platform in the first mission of the ITF. We literally had to clear the entire map to find all the romans that were in the spawn guarding Sister Solaris. The TF went downhill after that.

That clip just reinforces the fact that there are actually some things that are so bad, so absurd, so childish, so punishinly stupid, so toe-curlingly embarrassing and so stunningly half-witted that they wouldn't even look good in a comicbook game

That would make NO SENSE in COX, much like rainbow-colored dog-girls who fight with 9' swords in their mouths [?!!] MAKES NO SENSE EITHER. You can namecall all you want, will not make it less true. 'Ave a nice day, mate.

I won't go into that particular missions details again lets just say that I won't stay on a team with a grav player that I don't know unless he/she has at least 4 years of CoX experience and even then its a first 5 minutes type thing.

To date I've never teamed with a "good" grav player and the recent "update" to grav means that there are lots more "bad" grav players out there. To save myself the hassle I just don't team with them.

More specifically, the Bow of Light was never originally supposed to do what it does due the more 'modern' take on Kid Icarus. Even further, let's be honest; the Bow of Light is no longer a 'bow'. Pit fires 'Arrows of Light', yes, but that effect is purely cosmetic and it simply a burst of light energy in a shape that amuses the 'bow-like' shape the twin blades hold into.

If anything Palutena's Bow is more like Palutena's Squall at this point, while Pit fires Spirit Gun shots out of index finger.

Either way, Bow Melee has always been one of those things I rolled my eyes at, personality. I also don't even have many sources of them being anything note-worthy in history (feel free to correct me), and seem to just be a spawn of the "PUT BLADES ON EVERYTHING" phase of life.

If nothing else, it'd be TERRIBLY unwieldy and the bow would take massive performance penalties due to the (pointless) additional weight.

Really, just do the Monster Hunter route; very study and deadly arrows that, if needed, can be used as improvised melee weapons.

But really, bladed bows are pretty dumb. Kill it before it reaches you.

Yeah, because that wouldn't be called out immediately. Also, that design was stupid. A bow that splits in half couldn't bend and increase the power of the shots.

Because, to me, that is a reason NEVER to see the outfit in this game.

Yeah, I hung out with HUGE nerds. And it was great.

I also miss the days where my 5ft tall character actually felt short when I played with any PuG, now, 5ft tall comes up looking tall to a lot of other characters

But I don't recall seeing that look being popular. What server?

Truthfully, banded gloves, large boots, belly shrts, if it wasn't for the disco bottoms (I only use them when combined with a skirt, as I hate the short shorts look of that costume piece), it sounds like something I'd make!

But then, I've been making that look since I started playing back at the start of i3 ^_^ I love the large boots and banded gloves look!
