Going Rogue at PAX
Dispari has more than enough credability, and certainly doesn't need to borrow any from you.

For once (the world is doomed I know), I kind of agree with you, it's not the cattleheads themselves, it's the fact they look completely out of proportion with the bodies so they just don't look quite right.

Q: Any plans for PvP getting some changes? Saturday March 27, 2010 12:05 12:06 A: It is something on the slate, but it will be a couple of Issues from now. Base Raids, Items of Power are also planned on being repurposed but fixed. Also no market merger (confirmed yet again boo) |
Server transfers helped, the leage (no U!) helps, but we do need to keep it moving and working. So, established PvP'ers, bring in the newbs. New players, try it, it's not ALWAYS as bad as ya fear/heard.
Also, lolz Dull Blade brutes in PvP.

I'm excited about Incarnates but am worried about tying levels to zone events...a player might not encounter the event when online, what then?
Perhaps if players can precipitate events or enable them...
Questions about the game, either side? /t @Neuronia or @Neuronium, with your queries!
168760: A Death in the Gish. 3 missions, 1-14. Easy to solo.
Infinity Villains
Champion, Pinnacle, Virtue Heroes
I was excited to see confirmation about epic power pools with side switching. So villains becoming heroes can use APPs and heroes becoming villains can access Patron pools. I'm wondering if at level 50 will have to switch to that side's epics or if they'll be allowed to keep the powers they already have?
I'm also really excited about the Doppelganger system. I like how Posi said it's the kinda next step from the MA critter designing system. It was a little vague on if we'll have control of our Doppelgangers or if the game will generate them for us when we start the mission. Either way it's awesome.

In my experiences its NOT as bad as I feared\heard.. It was much, much worse.
But it works for some people, and everyone should try it once or twice if only to form their opinion from their own experience.
I'll personally never do it again. (Well maybe to get badges, but I'm not really even certain on that.)

That was me. I later interrogated War Witch and Mod 8 about PvP during the Meet and Greet, bringing up a lot of the old wounds from I13, and learning a lot more about what happened on their side with it. Long and short, it's gonna get looked at again, but the PvP community needs to show that there's a need/desire for additional adjustments to PvP, as well as a viable player base that will be affected by positively by changes.

More power to you and I'll gladly be PvP fodder if it can be made more fun and to the PvP communities liking (wait...is that two different things?). Good luck, Errant!

The whip looks amazing!

I wish we could get rid of those cattle heads. The rest of Demon Summoning looks great.

Rather big and bulky too, when they go live Villains is going to be City of Door Blocking for a bit.

Someone put up a YouTube video of the panel and it includes the Demon Summoning video.

Yeah, the second the official video goes live, I think it'll tip straight into, "Y'know, what would be cool? Fire whips powerset for scrappers."

And then after BAB stops weeping and rocking backwards and forwards in a corner, he'll hunt down anyone who made the suggestion

Gives him and the team a built-in excuse to come back to Boston next year ( ' ;

And they want them for blasters.
Yes. They want a hand-held weapon (yes, a long one, but still) for the ranged attack specialist.
Then again, they wanted a projectile weapon for the melee attackers, so I suppose that I shouldn't be surprised.
@Roderick
Personally I think whips (fire or otherwise) make the most sense as an Assault set.

Here's something from the PAX Q&A that I've not seen mentioned yet, when talking about how GR zone designs are made to tell the story of Paretoria:

Yeah the mind races with ideas now. Such as: "I totally did not move enough toons off my home server for this."
While Super Reflexes makes sense with the "Chi" look of the attacks, I'm thinking Willpower for Kinetic Combat. The real question is how much range will you use, what PBAoE it has and is it a good idea to be in point blank melee with it.
I can see blasters wanting this. Energy Blast/Kinetic Manipulation would give us 1,000s of Goku wannabes running around. Or for something less stomach turning: HADOKEN! (EDIT: It's what I get for not reading the full thread - at least I'm not the only one thinking it!).
