Will there be a dual pistol wielding Cobalt in our future?

There's a very good chance o' this.

I never really cared to play a gun-toting hero but I have been chomping at the bit to play one since that video from herocon. The set looks awesome from the outsiders view

Two pistol totin' vigilantes are comic books' bread and butter. Also popularized in numerous movies and books.

April: Ultra-Mode + i17
June/July: GR

Did I miss anything?

You get more from the Complete Collection or whatever it is, but no, that's spot on.

It's invite-only (and they said they'll be sending invites in the next couple days), but it's for anyone that is one of these:

A) Went to HeroCon
B) Longtime Vet (5+ yrs)
C) Fulfilled the Loyalty Program requirements (active account during the required time period in Oct/Nov. If you have a badge from it, you're good)

It's also for a "limited time", to shake out the glaringly obvious imbalances/animation issues. Hopefully they'll do the same thing with Demon Summoning, though maybe not since the Mastermind mechanic is pretty standard. The Whip, however, is not, so here's hoping.


Loose --> not tight.
Lose --> Did not win, misplace, cannot find, subtract.
One extra 'o' makes a big difference.

Dual Pistols is the only reason why I haven't rolled a Blaster/Corruptor yet.

Now they're here, I have no reason to not roll one.

Unless if for some reason they sucked.

But the devs' track record with new powerset have been good so far so I'll give it a try when I can.


In the Arena of Logic, I fight unarmed.

What I'm wondering is re:the Complete Collection Edition and the preorder, is it possible to preorder the CCE and get early access to Dual Pistols/Demon Summoning as well as all the CCE shinies?

Having to get one or the other or having to buy GR twice to get both would be made of fail and lose.

Anyone know? The phrasing in the info made it seem like an either/or kind of thing, unless you preordered it and bought the CCE :l

Also noooo what kind of Dual Pistols char do I make? I need a new Corr secondary to make one with >.> Or a DP/EM blaster, I guess. But heroside is the failside. Although with GR on the horizon I suppose that's not a dealbreaker :3

I'm going with DP/MM Blaster.

That combo sounds like fun!! I've never been one for blasters (my last blaster got stuck at level 28 and never played again). But I will have to make an exception this time. Now, what secondary shall I pair with DP for a corruptor? hmmmm.....
