Adrenaline Surge


Anaxagoras

The idea of this post is to give level 50s the satisfaction of leveling up without actually leveling up. How it works is that once you achieve level 50, an adrenaline surge feature is unlocked on your hero/villain; meaning, as you defeat x amount of enemies, an adrenaline bar fills, and when it does, your level 50 once again experiences the sparkling "ding " animation and instead of recieving the level up and the 5 tier 3 inspirations, they just recieve the inspirations.

Also, the adrenaline bar should be non visible in order to give it the actual "adrenaline surge" feel - with that in mind, you wont know when it'll happen, it just will. If you're like me, than you miss the feeling of "dinging," becoming instantly stronger, and overcoming odds you previously had difficult with. I think this feature will be a nice addition, simply because when it does happen, how can you not smile?

I'd rather that it pop upon recieving X amount of damage. You would want it more in the middle of a fight than after defeating the enemy.
Kind of a "Do you know who your messing with? POW!! I'm a Hero of the City, [censored]!" kind of thing.

Only problem with that is that my Scrapper who is slotted to be at the defense soft-cap against all damage types kinda gets the shaft since the entire point is not taking damage.

Ah, of course.
Random number of attacks (whether they hit or miss) taken against you, then?
They already track attacks aimed at you, as evidenced by the Brutes' Fury Bar, which climbs not just from successful enemy attacks, but from all of them.

I like the idea!

keep EXP gain on up to a certain point. Once you reach that point you, i guess we'll call it a "ping" (it aint a ding so ping will do). The EXP bar reverts back to zero and it starts over agian after you get the ping bonuses.


Whining about everything since 2006.

Ammo switching for Dual Pistols was my idea:
