Dear Castle,

When power proliferation was first announced we, the Mastermind Community, accepted our lot in life. We recognize that we are unique among the Classes in this game, and as such we knew that we would not be getting any new primaries out of it. We were slightly dismayed to find that our second proliferation slot had been given to Brutes, but we remained calm (I suspect a lot of /em Plot happened at this point, but since nothing untoward happened to you and your minions we can still be friends, right?).

Now, with the second round we realize that time is tight but I speak for the community when I say that it is high time for us to get a little more proliferation love. Could we pretty please get a second secondary set proliferated?

Pretty, pretty please? With a cherry on top?

Cold would be ideal, but I don't think anyone would object to Sonic either. We are reasonable people (for the most part) and we recognize that there are... potential problems with /Rad and /Kin.


Sincerely,
Weatherby Goode, on behalf of the Mastermind Community.




PS: If you do not comply, please remember that in addition to the torture of pet AI balancing we can inflict on you, we also have OIL SLICK ARROW!


MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAA!

I still want Sonic Res for MMs. Would probably make a wicked Thugs/Sonic MM with it.

All would bow before it too. /em evil laugh

I would give so much for /cold on mm´s

Aren't MM's getting thermal in i16? Is that what we're talking about here?

Seems likely according to the MMORPG.com article.

Yes we are but, goodes is asking that we also get a second proliferated set, since in the beginning ours was given to another AT.

We are getting thermal, but I'm asking for a second secondary since MMs only got one in the first round (all the other ATs got two).

So MMs should really be getting 3 proliferated sets.


Branching Paragon Police Department Epic Archetype, please!

we're also getting a new primary w/ Going Rogue >.>

But the other ATs have all gotten new primaries proliferated to them too, and GR is a long way off. Nevertheless, I think MMs understand how much more labor-intensive MM primary sets are, which is why I do believe the request was for more secondaries.

I'd love to see cold and sonic myself. Run them through the FF rubric and be done with it.

I'd kill for /Sonic.

Thugs/Sonic sounds like a very sturdy combination.

/Kinetics would be tons of fun.

Still waiting for that second secondary, Castle. Don't make me sick the Bruiser on you!

If CoX were a fast food place

Weatherby "Excuse me miss. I didn't get a toy with this happy meal for my kid. Could you give me one?"

Dev "You want another toy?"

Weatherby "No, I didn't get one the first time."

Dev "You bought the happy meal right?"

Weatherby "Yes."

Dev "Then you got a toy."

Weatherby "No I didn't. I just told you I didn't get one, and would like one now."

Dev "So you want another toy?"

Weatherby "Can I speak to your manager?"

Dev "Sure." goes off to get Castle

Castle "What's the problem?"

Weatherby "I didn't get a toy with this happy meal. Can I get one now?"

Castle "So you want another toy?"

Weatherby "NO! I want the one I should have gotten in the first place!"

Castle "You bought the happy meal right?"

I'm confused. Aren't we getting thermal in I16?

If you just want more proliferation, then cool. I prefer /Rad because I've had a Champions (tabletop RPG) character (NPC) I made back int he early 80s that was pretty much exactly what a Necro/Rad would be in COV.

/Cold and /Sonic are meh, but OK too.

Important point highlighted.

Maybe Demon Summoning will come with a second Secondary in Going Rogue. Obviously Thermal is likely going to be a match for it, but depending on the demon types, Cold Domination might be fitting as well.

We also don't know if there will be any other matching sets for Dual Pistols, such as a Secondary for Blasters. Although it looks like Maelstrom is Dual Pistols/Energy.

Oh, and also, remember that the more sets you get Proliferated, the less you have for later Proliferation. Eventually it will be nothing but Stalkers getting all the new sets.

Oops. But to be fair, your secondary sets have involved more work than most.


Edit: Waitaminute, what do you call Earth Control?

Aye we have been getting the short end of the stick when it comes to secondaries for some time now.

If you're saying MM's got the short end of the stick when it comes to secondaries, odds are you've never played anything/Dark. Whoever decided MMs should get /Dark was probably tripping on acid or something.

Yeah, but MMs don't get perma-fluffy without some serious work, so it's not as bad as you might think.
