I hear about people soloing TFs fairly often. Once every couple of months. All you need is people to fill the team for the min requirements, start TF, everyone quits except for one person who logs off. Viola, soloable TF.

Common version of the power: 1 Lt level mob that attacks and can be attacked or 1 ally who only buffs but cannot be attacked. Uncommon version of the power: 1 Boss level mob that attacks or 1 Lt level that attacks and 1 buff ally. Rare version of the power: 1 Boss level mob and 1 Lt level mob that attacks or one Boss level mob and 1 buff ally. |

Imagine a full MM team, all with Gang War, summoning the extra henchies all at the same time. Sheer madness I tell you. I believe it was calculated once that if all the henchies were summoned at the same time, there would be 144 players+thugs on screen at a time, not to mention the enemy NPCs...
I like the idea of "Heroes for hire". That way, you could have Fusionette with you on each and every mission! How would that be for you? When she dies, she 'teleports to the hospital' and will spawn next to you when you move to another zone (or exit a mission). You can have a whole roster of NPC heroes who've signed up for this program to help other heroes.
For the red side uh... I have no idea what you would call the program. But it would be the same thing. I kind of think Flameaux would sign up for something like this, seeing how inept she is.
In fact, I think that could be the running gag for this whole feature; that these heroes and villians are so inept that they're constantly getting themselves into trouble! So in desperation, they've signed up to be perpetual lackeys for others. They could be constantly making NPC chatter about it.
But what happens if you summon Fusionette and someone else has already summoned her? Or what if you're a mixed heroes and villains team? Would Fusionette have a problem being on the same team as Flambeaux?
Actually, I like the idea of a hireable pet (essentially).
Maybe something along the lines of earning a longbow, vanguard, PPD, RIP pet, ect. either by purchase, or completing some quest/feat..whatever. We can earn Shivans, and now there is also Invention: Back Up Radio temp power.
Maybe just varioations on the "Radio" then depending on what division we choose. Just for diversity.
I could see it now, going to a "Hiring Hall" and recruiting help. In the Rogue Isles You might get some Arachnos troops, Goldbrickers, or random Villians. In Paragon City they could be minor Heroes or Longbow. . .
The longer this thread has survived the more I am warming to this idea.
