One nice thing they could do with this new system is make Black Dwarf and Nova actually solid black instead of transparent.

Heh. The day they do that is the day I take and auto-fire stealth and a tendrils aura for all my human form costumes. Then I'd make my dwarf and nova solid and call every day backwards day. |

From BABs posts, certain things wouldn't work on some powers, and I do rather wonder if they didn't want too many egregious things, like yellow Ice powers, etc. (though you can get the same effect just by using current Rad and Ice powers together, hmmmm). |

A good example of this if you check it out is the "black" electricity powers on an elec/elec blaster.... Completely black, and looks very dark.|

No one has anything to say about the amount of baddies you can now put in a mish? My Warshade loves all the cadavers er I mean mobs to play with!

That's really the *only* feature in this issue that benefits the toon I play on the most (my WS)... I really am excited about it... I tested it out already on the BM map with Vestige with +1s, +2s, +3s, and +4s with and without bosses.... Lovin' it!|

Well I tested 8 man mission with my scrapper aginst +4 carnies and loved that, then I tried a +2 mobs on my Warshade and got really annoyed with the form rooting so didnt play very long.
I have never filled my missions before so I think fighting that many mobs will take some getting used to, but it was more than doable and will be quite fun when I get used to it
I will also probably end up refining my build to get perma-Sunless Mire.

Form rooting? What's tha-oooohhhh....
You were playing a tri-former... :P
Try it with +4 mobs on this next build release (form rooting will be gone then), and tell me how you fare...

Given the option, the only tinting I'd do on my Warshade would be to Hasten. Obviously that will have to wait for later. My current build is Hasten-less which makes me sub-optimal in the opinions of the wise. I had it on the last build and speced out of it because it was just too danged ugly. I'm shallow that way.

Actually, let me say that I disagree with you on that point. The ability of a Kheldian to shift forms at will and be mobile and be able to use a form-power and immediately after a Human-power, is at the basis of TriFormer gameplay, a.k.a Jack-of-All-Trades, therefore, as far as I'm concerned, your speculation about form-shifting does mean Jack indeed!

On a serious note, the day Kheldian TriFormers must choose their form and stick with it through a fight, and this is enforced by game-play mechanics, is the day I turn in my non-existent Kheldian sash. 
I believe that a Kheldian Gold Standard should be based on SO's, and for anything above that... there's Platinum!

Thirded.
If I can't switch forms in combat then there is no reason to play Khelds for me.
total kick to the gut
This is like having Ra's Al Ghul show up at your birthday party.

It's official, and this thread can be finally laid to rest.

Just to shift gears a bit - anyone notice what seems to be increased End usage since i-16? On a recent TF I was running low the whole time, it seemed.
