Also there were some very cool pictures of the elemental shields being used with the apropriate elemental melee power. Very cool looking. What exacly is going on in that last picture? It lookks like some kind of Rock cyclone!? (Second 41)

I noticed that too... cyclone/hurricane effect with pieces of rocks floating around in it. Wonder what that was?

... I thought Pain Domination was going to have pink ponies?

No, but you get a Steam Horse that runs over your foes. Then backs up over them. Then runs them over again. Then backs up over them. Then runs over them.
It's DoT.

I think we can all agree that Pain Domination is now the HIGHLIGHT of Issue 13.

In the video it looked like Pain Domination had a +Regen/+Recovery aura type power (The Pain Dom person does the animation for Recovery Aura and then it shows +Regen/+Recovery sticky graphics on the two other villains).
I thought it didn't have a power like that... internal change? Maybe?
[/ QUOTE ]
I wouldn't count on that.
Watch it closely:
Villain 1 in Grandville uses some sort of AoE Pain Dom power.
Cut to Villains 2 and 3 in what looks like Cap Au Diable.
I'm pretty sure it's fair to say those three Villains aren't in the same spot. Considering that little camera trick, what else is being shown in a somewhat different light?

Broadswords, Axe, and Mace can use them. Lefty or Dual Wield sets can't.
Loose --> not tight.
Lose --> Did not win, misplace, cannot find, subtract.
One extra 'o' makes a big difference.
I have to ask now- How do people not realize this kind of stuff already?
First there was the guy on MMORPG.com assuming Shield was gonna be a POWER POOL, now people didn't know it could be used with swords.
Are these people just not checking the forums obsessively every day like me?
Both sets are looking good, I had seen the shields on the test costume creator and was impressed.
But pain dom, pain dom looks very very hot.

Oh yeah, slot reserved for Necro/Pain MM..... fun stuff

I don't particularly care to play the "healer", but Pain Domination looks fun enough that I might revive my hook-handed surgeon after all. Primary Fire Blast, naturally.

Also, just to address a common question that comes up when we do these exclusives, is why we put them out on MMORPG.com first. We do this to gain exposure for the game. We host articles such as this as an exclusive on a gaming website and then will host the same information here on our website shortly thereafter.

Also, better their bandwidth than yours for the initial rush.
Pain Domination....so pretty

Thank you! First thing I did when I saw "Windows Media Player" is to see if someone uploaded on YouTube!
More shield bashing, less weapon-bashing and less fancy video effects!

Thank you!
Shield throwing was mentioned on the video site and that it wouldn't violate any rules..Does anyone know the story on that? My guess is that it would.
LVConvert, the things you think are new Powerset Abilities? They're just more like High Definition versions of existing Powerset Abilities, like Frost Breath. Sorry that you thought they were new Powerset Abilities, but they aren't. Oh, and BTW, the new Powersets are just FANTASTIC!!!
Try my 3 MArcs: I.D.#67166:Protect the Artifacts!! I.D.#97724:Level-Up Time. I.D.#243803:Witch War! Salem vs. Croatoa!
At the 28 second mark you can kinda see teh shield charge. At least I think that is shield charge.
Also there were some very cool pictures of the elemental shields being used with the apropriate elemental melee power. Very cool looking. What exacly is going on in that last picture? It lookks like some kind of Rock cyclone!? (Second 41)
The Pain Domination ones look kinda meh to me. It seems to be alot of throwing your hands up in the air. reviewing it now. still kinda going meh over the actual look of it.
