Powersets you want, but realize are unlikely!

Growth Defensive set -- I wanna be 40' tall!
Shrinking Defensive set -- I'm 1/8th of an inch tall!
Mapserver Control
Omnipotence -- Nothing can harm me; one hit defeat for anything!
Wall Crawling
Swing Lines
Super Speed Swimming

EDIT: I should note that at least some of those are available as a Dev, but my live account sure doesn't have 'em!

So get cracking!

Power is unless without the will to use it,
But will in nothing unless you believe in yourself.
And that is ture power!
Written by-Mr Amazing

I really liked this idea:
Throwing Weapons - So many options for customization here. Players could pick their weapon, just like we already do for other sets, amongst options like knives, skulls/bones, shoes, javelins, etc. Make it a Ranged Blast S/L set with a concentration on fast, lighter-damage attacks. I know, it sounds like Archery, but with more customization options! It'd be the equivalent Scrapper Claws choice, but for Blasters and Corruptors... and maybe Defenders.

As for my own:

1. Animal Spirit Control (Controllers/Dominators) - I was thinking that an Animal set for MMs might be good, but it doesn't really sound too Mastermind-like to be the evil ruler of a band of critters. Although I do like the idea of a squirrel version of Gang War. Anyway, I reworked it into a possible Controller powerset. Most of the controls would work like temporary pet summons. You want to hold someone, you activate the power "Bear Hug" and it holds the enemy with a ghostly-green image of a bear embracing them. You want to disorient someone, so you summon the spirits of birds to constantly wizz about their head. Stuff like that.

2. Elementals (Mastermind) - Basic premise being that you summon elementals as your pets. We already have some current in-game options for this. Look at the Magmite Lords in the Hollows. Or at simple ole Fire Imps.
-Minions: Fire Imp models with Fire Blast powers
-LTs: Magmite Lord or Devouring Earth Sentry models with Stone Melee powers.
-Boss: Elemental Storms from the Shadow Shard "models" to provide energy damage and some control.
A little bit of damage from fire, smash, and energy. It'd go great with /Storm too!

Infinity
Moscow - BS/SR Scrapper
Killawattz - Kin/Elec Defender
Ode - Fire/FF Controller
Hyponaut - AR/Ice Blaster
Jaze - Stone/Fire Tanker
Battlesnake - MA/DA Scrapper
Shadowgate - DM/Elec Brute
Bonfire - Fire/Kin Corruptor
...and the list goes on...

I know I have the full stats for these two written up somewhere.. But I am having a hard time finding them at the moment.
Anyway, these are my dream sets:

O-fuda or Runic Support or Whatever You Wanna Call It.
A fast-paced close-range support set that throws out ribbons and runes to shield allies and debuff specific enemies. Very Magic themed, but also works with Tech (enhancing nanofilaments!), Mutant (I'm throwing spores I grew myself!), Science! (Those runes are coated with something..), and even Natural Chi stuff.

Arm Cannon, because Blasters and Corrs and Dominators need more weapon customization. A LEFT handed costume option like Shields.. possibly one that is always visible. Because you don't draw a cannon that stays on your arm all the time. (And cause there are only two states for a custom weapon, right? More on the second state later.)
The blasting cannon on your arm could be from your awesome techie suit, or it could be a mutant biological weapon you turned your arm into, or it could be a symbiotic plant that lives on your arm! So many costume options!
Mostly Energy attacks, with maybe a little Fire, Smashing, or even Cold mixed in. The nifty unique perk of this set would be its "Overdrive" form, which increased ToHit, beefed up the damage of some attacks and added debuffs and mezzes to others (using code like DB's combo system- "If state is Overdrive, this effect goes off too").
Overdrive would ideally make your Arm Cannon change appearance to an awesome form- Panels on your tech cannon move outward and a powerful glow seeps from the cracks.. the plant on your arm opens its petals/leaves into a very threatening open flower cannon.. that sorta thing.

Arc #271637 - Welcome to M.A.G.I. - An alternative first story arc for magic origin heroes. At Hero Registration you heard the jokes about Azuria always losing things. When she loses the entire M.A.G.I. vault, you are chosen to find it.

Dagger set for stalkers. I always thought it would be the perfect concept weapon for them, and you could change it up with things like a poisoned stab, slashing eyes to debuff accuracy, basically trick moves. problem would be it's another lethal damage weapon, and would probably have low damage.

Dark Control for trollers and dominators. The only problem with this one is dark blast and dark miasma pretty much have all the powers that would go into a set like this, so it's probably considered redundant(even though trollers have no neg energy powers >.&lt

Other than that, a whip mastery set would be kinda cool, but i can see some graphic issues with that one.

I want shoulder pets as missle weapons.

I absolutely love when the redcaps get thrown at you and land on your shoulders. I want to be able to do the same thing with kittens and pandas!

Group travel power that grants the caster the ability to created energy paths and platforms that team members may stand on.

I want the laser rifle powers from Bots taken and fleshed out into a blaster primary. You already have a third of them done!

Laser Blaster Full Auto FTW.

I had written up a Laser Rifle powerset some time ago. One of my favorite abilities was it's T8 power.

Overcharge: Ground Targeted AoE, High Damage, Fire/Smash/Energy.

You shoot the ground wherever you put the cursor (like when you summon caltrops) with a high powered beam that causes the earth to superheat and then explode, sending chunks of rock/concrete/dirt/whateverwasinthedirtthere flying at everything nearby.

Potentially a very cool attack >_<

Potentially also a big pain to make.

*sigh*




But yes, WANT LASER RIFLE

Emphasis mine. Serious investigation should be done to move both of those power possibilities out of the unlikely category.

On a Growth power related note: How large of a humanoid structure can be maintained in the game? I know players would never get it - it would be effectively nullified indoor - but I would love to see a time travel mission where we got to see Atlas in action. If the Devs won't do it, give us the power to make GM-sized custom critters when/if GMs get added back to the MA.

I'd love that too, so long as the pet does little damage and makes a nice Splat when it hits.

Shoulder Cannons to go with Arm Cannons. Someone did a Power Armor Set write up recently that I thought looked pretty good. Most of the items from that would look bitchin on a robot or cyborg.

---

I would like a powerset that is variable based on enemy being fought.

Like say is able to syphon abilities from the badguys.
I think it would be freakin hillarious in pvp too.

---

I would also like a truely magic power set with circles of containmetn..pure magic blasts, summons...

would probably be a controller/dom set

---

So how come we can't customize weapons to have a damage type? They'd have to add some new effects and such. But like a mace or or battle axe with lightning, or energy arrows, a flaming katana, etc etc, so on and so forth!

[Reach Around FTW]
[VORI PvP SG]

Johnny Wildfire - sonic/therm corr, Adam Vim - emp/sonic def, Johnny Wildsurge - elec/pain corr, Subversion of Reason - dark/rad corr, Fearsome Facsimilie - ma/regen stalker

Because the dev's have decreed cusomized powers isn't effective use of resources. And that was just for colors. God help if we could customize damage types with our sets...I would have a Negative Energy damaging Warmace or battleaxe so fast. Of course that would be completely out of balance and game breaking as well.

---

I think we need more non-melee sets added (though I agree that Staves/Spears would probably be the best melee set to add next). And that's coming from someone who almost exclusively plays Scrappers, Stalkers and Brutes.

I'd say within the next two powerset additions, we need at least two more Mastermind primaries. Supposedly "Demon Summoning" is on the books for Issue 16, unless Posi was joking. I think that the best suggestion I've heard has been the "Animal Control" set, but since this is red-side and we've already got a light focus on the subject, I propose...

Spiders. A Spider Mastermind will be able to summon large spiders to assist them, with the final pet being an Arachnoid. Player attacks will deal mainly toxic damage, and will focus on acid sprays. One power will be a melee range health-draining attack, ala Dark Melee's Siphon Life.

There could also be a spider-themed secondary powerset, which would combine debuff elements from the Poison set with a Web Grenade-style power, a web-themed Tar Patch/Quicksand AOE slow power, "Cocoon Defense" to buff minions and teammates. The final power in the set would be "Web Snare," a single-target long duration Mag 3 hold; anything ensnared in the web would receive double damage from any attacks dealing Toxic damage.

I'm assuming that we're actually getting Dual Pistols sometime in the foreseeable future, which is awesome, because my next suggestion was going to be a new ranged attack set for Blasters and Corrupters. (I think there need to be some pistol whip and/or melee range pistol attacks to make this a Dominator powerset as well!)

My final suggestion, and another category which has long been ignored as new powersets have been added, is for a new Control set. Specifically, we need a powerset to fill a void in Origin selection. The current Control sets work fine for Magic, Mutant, and Science Origins, and everyone can work out a story for a Natural Origin with enough effort (alien from a planet of fire dancers, perhaps?)... but what about Tech or normal human Controllers? And thus, I present to you:

Device Control. The Device Control set revolves around using technology to stun, hold, immobilize, or otherwise incapacitate an opponent. It focuses more on having an array of different abilities, rather than stacking one type of mez over and over. It uses mostly existing animations, such as the Malta Taser (either with greater mez magnitude or duration due to being a melee power), Web Grenades, Sleeping Gas, etc., with the summoned pet being a floating Malta gun turret. New powers would include a "Neural Disruptor," which creates a sonic disturbance that confuses enemies within a radius and causes them to attack each others, and the dreaded "Arc Taser," which chain-stuns a group of enemies.

Mastermind set: Mobsters with tommy guns.

Seriously, that would be so much more stylish then generic thugs or mercs.

---

Some of these are pie in the sky ridiculous, others are actually realistic:

Telekinesis -- I want to be able to lift and throw objects and foes like in The Force Unleashed.

"Real" Invulnerability -- I mean an all resistance/MaxHp version of the set without heals or Def.

Ditto the Super Speed attack set-- I especially want a large PBAoE that looks like a bunch of shadows of your character are running around with their fist out in front of him/her.

Martial Arts with the ability to choose whether each given attack animates as a punch or a kick.

Energy Blast version II -- the blasts would be solid, cylindrical, near-instantaneous beams, like Green Lantern or Dazzler, instead of looking like watery bursts and projectiles.

Energy Rifle/Pistol -- like above, but from a gun instead of your hands.

Dual Pistol Melee -- Shooting people at close range and pairing it with Super Reflexes, Regen, etc.

A "devices" control set-- Bolas, nets, wide-area web grenades, stun grenades, etc. for Controllers and Dominators.

Animals for MMs-- Tier 1: Wolves, Tier 2: Tigers, Tier 3: Grizzly Bear. Weapon powers would be a whip.
