Electric Melee and Armor for Issue 16.

I think Castle is just scared. I was really hoping for Energy Melee/Energy Aura. Or SS and Mace/Axe. Or Ice/Ice. Sigh...

But didnt you know that Martial Arts will use Super Strenght Animations as alternates? There is your Super Strength!

Because its funnnneeeeiiiii!!!!!

And if I turn to be right I get the Forum Fortune Teller badge!

That being told, you can be sure: Martial Arts alternate animations WILL be punches and arm based, for all those players that for years have complained about MA being just kicks.

Yup. Electric Melee is OK. Might even be awesome with Scrapper mods and crits. But Electric Armor is fail.

I so fear you're right.

Must I forever be denied Scrapper Footstomp?

What makes you think proliferation of Super Strength would give that to you? Rage will surely be drastically different on a scrapper SS.

Foot Stomp's increased radius may be adjusted for scrappers.

And in the end, the base damage Foot Stomp does is less than Fire Sword Circle, that you already have access to.

Don't care about that. It's the radius and appearance I want. They nerf the radius I'll be bummed. But really I just want the powerset. If dragon tail (that's MA's AoE right?) gets the Footstomp animation, I'll probably be cool. Although it would be [naughty word for engaging in coitus] weak to lose the radius.

I might start nerfherding on Brutes.

Yeah no EM or SS, the two primaries I hoped would get ported over for scrappers. Oh well, less for me to care about when I16 hits...


Who do I have to *&^% around here to get more Targeted AoE recipes added?

I don't care for either sets in particular, so it is no big deal for me. I would be thrilled if MA got footstomp animation in trade for dragon's tail though. OMG! Great idea! I doubt it will happen, but still the thought is cool.


Words to the wise aren't necessary- it's the stupid ones that need them.

EM and SS are two of the problem sets in this game. If you been paying attention to the stuff they proliferating, they are not proliferating the big problem sets, at least not yet.

[censored] duh?

(OK, honestly, after the ET and TF nerfs a while back, I was half expecting Scrappers to get EM and EA.)

Elec/Shield scrappers anyone?


 

Posted

elec/shield on a scrapper will be nice but one of the largest holes is the no heal. I have an elec/shield brute all pimped out that I love but when it comes down to it my pimped out dm/shield scrapper is more survivable in most cases.

A lightning rod crit would be nice though. Oops I just peed a little.

Yup. Castle did some gymnastics to avoid it this time though.

No fire for Defenders;
No illusion for Doms;
No BS for Tankers;
etc.

It wouldn't crit thought right? Because it spawns a pet. Like the stalker version.

I highly doubt MA will get SS animations.
Foot Stomp is not Martial Arts at all.

Hopefully Conserve Power will be replaced with some sort of heal/regen/+health.
