Well, "right" and "wrong" can be seen as "accurate" or "innacurate". My character "Ensign Redshirt" is a character... that is an accurate description of him. To call him a cartoon is NOT an accurate description of him as his features are not exaggerated.

Mary Worth (who's cartoonist is Karen Moy) could be said to be both a cartoon and a character.
A weave pattern for a rug is definitly a cartoon and not a character.
A letter, digit or other symbol that is used as the representation of data is called a character. A connected sequence of characters is called a character string.

It all boils down to how a person uses a word by how they defines or feels about something. The eviroment they use it in . The converational company they are in.

Theres even one guy here that dislikes the american hand symbol for peace. At least thats what I am assuming cause the local under his avatar says Australian.

I think people who say "oh" instead of "zero" should go back to math class. But I gave up chasing that windmill when I called infromation and the computerized voice said. " The number you are looking for is five five five oh one oh oh"

My GF and I were watching TV just now. One of the actors says he is leaving.
Out of the blue she says. "Bummer he was one of my favorite toons."

I hereby pronounce "toon" haters are DOOMED.

Personally, I prefer character over toon. Then again, I am an elitist SOB.

Is the S.O.B. or sob with cap locks?

I use toons cause I am hiding from the grammar nazi's. They may catch me if spell charicter or villain. The way my brain pronounces them.

But I am all confused now. I pulled out my Toon RPG book and they have Character sheets.

Schedule B Enhancements (20%, 10%, 5%) are:

Range, Defense Buff, Resist Damage, To Hit Buff

These bonus types start to see reduction when the bonus is 40% or more, and a severe reduction at 60% bonus or greater. So your bonuses when slotting in multiples of the same Single-Origin Enhancement work out to:

1 SO: +20%

2 SO: +40%

3 SO: +56%

4 SO: +59%

5 SO: +62%

6 SO: +65%

this is copied from the patch notes.

I think this is great idea.

Crazymonkey you seem to have pointed out most of my thoughts I came up with while reading the post.

I now feel (with the limited info we have thus far) that my level 1 will be able to contribute just as much to the base as my level 50. This is assuming that Prestige isn't going to scale with levels.

The only thing mandatory in SG mode right now is the chest emblem. I would like to see this change to the option of either chest or pocket by default. Then having and option of going to Icon getting a mish that would change the location of the emblem (arm, shoulder pad, cape or even forehead if so desired).

As for Prestige being linked to the hero or a SG slush fund I am undecided. I don't think it should be datamined. When the bases come out every one should starts at zero.

For those SG's that have subdivided and have alts scattered among them you have a major advantage over some one like me who's SG has only one SG base and 10 players that have multiple alts in it. You can schedual a raid on the alt base and then convene and discuss the strengths and weakness of the base. From both view points. My SG can only do that if the raiding party is willing to talk.

Purely hypatheticel (with no facts to back it up) but a smoking gun that the dev's may intentionally fail to mention is that prestige can only be earned while raiding or defending base. Which they could do if they gave each SG an initial base fund of x amount of prestige.

I don't agree with this change.
Further more I don't agree with those who says it makes sense. example

1) When I was a kid in school I sat in the back row and hit a girl in the back of the head with a rubber band. She turned around but had no idea who shot her cause I sat there with the best poker face a third grader could have. My friend ended up getting accused because he started snickering.

Or better yet

2) Cheetahs and zebras both have developed camufloge. The zebra when stationary the stripes lets the herd blend to together and when chased the the stripes causes them to be blurred against the background. The cheetah's spot do much the same thing.

3) stealth fighter jet radar signature is going to be just as small after he launches a missile as before. (if I am wrong about this one I stand corrected)

Comparing just I4 burn to the new proposed I5 burn on test. Lvl 29 shields up and BA slotted 1 acc 1 dam 1 redux and 1 taunt. Tomb mish environment. In I4 setting I taunted one group 3 minions (white) and 1 lt (orange). (these are COT) took me a minute to defeat the lt with 9 points of damage per click. I5 same set up. This time it took 10 minutes at 4 points. In I4 the fear caused the mob to spead out in a straight line and return like wisel. I I5 it was more zig zagged sometimes even run through the patch and rarely returned. This required more retaunting with taunt and BA and a alot more maneuvering (then I4) because now they are to spread out so single taunt wont hit them all.

I keep taunt on auto which is a practice I will have to change if I continue to use burn. (I do turn this of if I am running with some one who uses knock back or scattering type powers) Because one time the target ran into another mob as taunt was going off . This could cause team wipe out .

In the current proposed form I will most likely respec out of burn and take it later in my tanks career. I can see using burn as a means to protect a team mate that finds themselves surrounded and taunts have been used up else were. The risk verses the reward for using burn isn't worth the power

If burn must be changed to bring it in line then keep the reduced damage and increased recharge time. But get rid of the fear. Fear just doesn't fit into what tanks are suppose to be. Aggro magnets

I would like to see this done in game. So those who join up years down the road wont have to hunt the comics down. Heres one way it could be done. The contact could be a student, reporter or an archologist is doing research on say Wavelength. they ask you to get a piece of liturature or item in a area to dangerouse for them to go. When completed an you hit the exit button instead of being dumped directly out on the street you get one or more comic book style screens. For your viewing and reading pleasure. I would even number the pages so if your on a pick up team you can get some idea as to where in the story you you were. Then when done you can hit exit aagina get dumped out on the street.
