I have another idea =P

Ok.. so the last post didn't do so well.. reading/comment ratio.. but ehh anyways..

Something I've noticed for sometime now but never really talked about it here on the forums. and that is.. A lack of resistance recipes.

Now i don't mean toxic or psionic cause there are alot more of those than I thought there would be. but as a person who started as a melee type and prefers melee types over everything else. I noticed there is a real severe lack in resistance sets.

and when browsing around in mids looking for specific things i'd like to increase I noticed the things that had the resistances i wanted, I couldn't use at all simply because i don't have those powers that can take them.

but as a defensive type I've noticed there is alot of options to improove defence, but the ratio between defense and resistance is lopsided.

I would like to not always have to be stone or invun to get the s/l resistances i love. a simple increase in smashing,/lethal and energy resistance recipes I think would benefit anyone really..

so those of us without naturally high resistances can survive a little longer out on the battlefield ya know?

just an an idea/thought/suggestion.

i personally hope to see some put in with the next issue ^_^;; its been to long coming if ya ask me.

There are already seven Resistance Sets.

Now if you mean that you want new sets to have Typed Damage Resistance as set bonuses, or maybe add some damage resistance as set bonuses to some existing sets, then I would agree. I mean "debt protection" is a worthless set bonus, and more of a placeholder than anything else.

yes, exactly. as i was trying to say before, as a defensive set, you get defensive sets that give defensive bonuses, and melee that give defensive bonuses

but resistance is another story. which when you look at all the list you can see what im talking about. but yeah, pretty much what you said. lets go with that

Part of the problem is that Resistance set bonuses are not balanced against Defense set bonuses for some absurd reason.

hehe, tell me about it.
but yeah, i was just wondering if they knew about this before they even put in recipes in the firstplace. I kinda wonder who was incharge of bonuses in the first place really.

not saying they did a bad job or anything but the more i look at the set bonus finder in mids the more i think recipes as a whole was meant for support/ranged based toons really.

since those types have all the mez based attacks and such. and somehow by making some have defence bonuses.. every defence type somehow squeezed into the club and wasn't really on the list to begin with =P

guess my ideas aren't all that great.

maybe i should go about complaining about ae to get some attention ovah heeeyurrr =\

Don't get discouraged. A lot of times those other ideas you see with a lot of participation are the result of getting off topic and degenerating into pointless arguments that have nothing to do with the original idea.

Your thread may be short but it's on topic.

guess you have a point there. I never really did take the time to read original posts just alot of the replies and just assumed it was all related. but yeah I know how things can get offtopic rather well.

for example

I've been adverstising my arc about and not a sole ingame has even bothered to try it. Ive been working on this story off and on since ae was on test and i finally finished it like a week or so ago. I've listed the id in my sg.. in local chat in atlas where ae people hang at, and other places. and not a sole has even checked it.

no feedback.. or anything it's really discouraging too because im trying to get those badges associated with actual stories and not farms, ya know.

so i guess i'll list it here and hope people try it, XD!

its 268409

There's not as many badges for being an author as there were.
But your arc has been played and rated.

yaay, ty ty
finally someone played it. XD XD.

sooo what ya think? im accepting any and all "CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM" im sure alot of people know what that means, but yeah.. I have to stress it sometimes because the usual "This Blows!" isn't constructive at all nor does it help me improove on anything if needed ya know?
