Why do some of those CoT ghosts have legs and when can I get my lighting blade?

The video on CoH facebook group with the guys hero actually coming to life and he gets a crush on her, that one is pretty good . . . . . though a bit creepy too

Ah, the City of Hero characters.

I also like how Foreshadow is in the trailers, but has almost no Lore or presence in the game (he's the Hollows trainer iirc). Same with Mirror Spirit (trainer in Faultline).

What's most amusing though is that after the CGI movies they changed Foreshadow's costume, so he looks nothing like that now.

Hmmmm I had never seen Rose Spark or Spark Blade before... I think they must be introduced properly into the game (along with more from W.I.S.D.O.M)!!!

Espcially if it means we can get a Katana/Pistol assault set out of it

They both appear in some missions given by Scirocco but even then thats not a lot!

If your mouse has greater processing power than your gfx card, the answer is yes.

Foreshadow and Mirror Spirit both show up in Scirocco's arc.

Y'know, blasters could use something a little more down to earth for their secondary that isn't devices...

Kinda like Marvel never knows what to do with Deathlok and Howards the Duck. They're always lurking in the background, waiting to leap out on you but when..?


Foreshadow and Mirror Spirit feature in the comics and the movies so I'm guessing they just needed a bit of a tweak and here they are.

Whenever they need to make sure the copyright doesn't expire, usually.

I know I'm still waiting for Spark Blade and Rose Star to make any kind of appearance in the game.

I be honest if one of my female characters came to life chances are I develop a crush on her too.

I will be honest a majorty of my female characters are made to be attraive to me, I mean really would you want to spend hours playing a character you couldn't stand?

The CO art designers think the answer is "yes".

I was reading in one of the threads about I17 and someone did speculate that the whole 'Dark Mirror' thing revolved around Mirror Spirit or her praetorian counterpart in someway.

Particularly due to the idea of the, mirror, the 'blow for blow' thing and the new Positron TF ends in Faultline.

Sorry I can't directly the person who came up with the idea but I can't find it

Let's see just what would it take to put an effective hold on Statesman?

Let's see, so he gets 13 points protection for Unyielding (but he doesn't have that in his profile), Purple Triangles gives him Mag 50 protection (assuming he wasn't experiencing Purple Triangles "Down" period), and gets 21 points protection from unstoppable, though it doesn't seem like he had that on.

So, in the absolute best scenario (which would include him having a power he doesn't have), States has 84 points protection against holds, taking the video at face value, he may have
had only 50, in the worst case scenario only 4 points of mez protection.

So yeah, if he was having a moment like that latter most scenario, he could have been held that easily.

Incorrect, Statesman has an innate 150 mag protection to everything (except immob and sleep) and no PToD

Which in the video he was clearly not held, just unable to move

*wonders what 150 ice controllers trying to freeze states would look like*

In the spirit of the 1337 CoV trailer, I must repost this (not totally SFW). A little dated now but still makes me laugh. (Obviously I didn't make this, just saved it.)
