The Eight Elements - Superteam


Asteroth

Hmm, Is Storm Summoning any good? I sorta feel I could get into a Plant/Storm Troller (Since both involve water as their basic element)

Storm is actually a good set just a little underrated because its a bit different then most defender sets.

O2 boost is a much unrated heal it is the only one in this set and its single target but it is also a short buff +Res(Disorient, Sleep, End Drain), +Perception and will pull someone out of disorient or sleep.

Steamy mist is your standard aoe toggle res buff/stealth

hurricane is one of them misused powers that gives the set a bad name. Its a toggle that makes a field around you that knocks mobs back but it also kills there tohit and there range. It is actually useful for protecting the blasters in the back where you will be anyways. But a lot of tards like to rush in with it knocking all the mobs away from the tank.

Your top tier is lightning storm a nice dmg aoe that just looks cool.

Looks like we're making a pretty balanced team, so anything goes for the last few spots.
I made the correction in the quote I'm embarassed to say I might have the spelling wrong since it was one of like 10 other similar names I tried but thats very close.

And sorry prem I think the only halloween salvage I have is on a mm on freedom


In the beginning the universe was created, this upset many people and is widely regarded as a bad idea.

Whats are deal for LvL/XP? Can we level outside the team or not? I mean with Super sidekicking staying static is less important these days.

Very true. SUGGESTION:

For right now, until we all get together, we stick at level 4 as our max. This leaves us room for level pacts. (if anybody likes that idea - Your mileage may vary)

Can't think of any reason outside of that to NOT level up whenever. Except that lost levels are going to HURT if there's anything more than a five level difference. :P

We just need to OP to return and get the last two guys built and get this thing started


 

Posted

Anybody contact the OP?

And lvl 4 it is.

Much thanks to Substrate and Bubbawheat for helping me with the salvage, and the recipe transfer, and now Both of my costumes, and Power Customizations are absolutely perfect. So, We need Asteroth, and the rest of the team.

Hurt? Not so much I've taken my redside 50 down to noob levels before for teaming. Level +5 is still above the curve being just that level. Sure pre Stam levels can take getting use to if you have become comfortable to the End flowing like water.

But it's not like anyone plans to power rush to 50.... it is just having an alt sitting idle for to long can make someone less willing to pull it out again. Characters tend to have a sort of momentum and to much down time can derail it.

I'd honestly like to hit a "Milestone" point or two: Unlocking Pools, Unlocking Travel Powers. So that when we start, there's less to slog through at the early levels in terms of necessities, Character builds have started to take shape, People Get around easily, Peopel have gotten a feel for their characters, that whole thing.

ON another note, you know what's HARD As HELL to get a screenie of? Movement-Based Auras. Ugghh.

Another argument as to having such a low-level initial cap: It's right there in the title. Optimally, we are an 8-person superteam. We get an XP bonus from all enemies (of which there are more) and an increased mission complete bonus as well.

The pre-20 phase is NOT going to be slow.

True... But the flip side to this is since we still have yet to see the OP in a wail we come to the other problem that plague static teams. Getting together at the same time. The larger the number of people that more problematic it becomes. (large SGs aside where the large number actully make it easier for people to get together)

Me, Premonitions, and Paradigm_Shift seem to run around the same sort of schedule but I have yet to bump into any of the other five.

I have no problem sitting at lvl 4 until we get everyone together but unless we have some sort of hard schedule once the team has been collected and started off I can see myself losing interest *looks at this nearly full character list* trust me I've been here before with other statics. Usually they start strong everyone gets started gets there ideas out and lays down the ground work. Then one of three things tend to happen. 1) no one ever can get everyone together at the same time and the static falls apart a few weeks later. 2) They can get together but it ends up being hit or miss with a weekly thing turning into a biweekly then monthly and then just slowly fading out. or 3) It works like a charm with weekly or biweekly get togethers and much fun to be had for all. Sadly the last tends to happen pretty rarely. But the more flexible groups tend to have more survivability becuase they allow for play time that can function without the whole group having to be there every time. But even they can fail by being to flexible and you end up with people at wildly different levels and then it can get into a issue of hows missions to run do you run the lower missions becuase they gel better with the RP theme and story or the higher missions which can turn into powerleveling which tend to be perty boring as the lower players do little more then follow the 50s around and chat.

I guess what the TL;DR version of this is. Need to get going soon or the fire will die and need to hammer out what the schedule and leveling policy will be.

Just to repost it further in the thread as it will likely be needed again I am available fri-sat virtualy every week starting at 4:30 PST/MST(explained at bottom) on friday since thats when I get home

Now for the weird PST/MST thing I'm in Tucson and I was made aware that we dont like being normal so we don't use daylight savings time and sometimes we are with PST and the other times we are with MST.

Also just to confuse all of you and contradict myself this weekend I am going camping with my dad and grandparents so sorry

Dang, it sounds like this is on hold/cancelled unless the OP comes back. It sounded like fun, I'll be on Vynlana here for a bit, I think I'll try to get up to level 10 and set up a SG for us if he does come back. That way it can be a little bit more flexible, or at least maybe easier to meet up.

Maaaaan, I just finished reading Planet Hulk and World War hulk, I REALLY wanted to play this character.

Ok, <The Eight Elements> SG is formed, though I'm not sure when you can catch me next to get an invite. But I'll try to be around.

I dig the SG idea. Worst comes to worst we can just keep it casual and if OP never returns at lest we will still have a little fun out of it.

And if OP never returns we could always expand the idea of the SG by letting others join but sticking to the Elemental format IE all characters would have to be based on one of the eight choices.

Hopefully OP will come back becuase it looks like they really put some thought into it.

Uh.

While the OP being gone is all very soul-crushing...

Our very endearing efforts to keep this thing alive have proven that he is virtually unneeded, if he never shows up. Why not just have one of ourselves become the official "organizer?" Bubbawheat, for example, has done a pretty good job of listing all the provided information, conveying choices and even with setting up a foothold for us to work with. That right there is proof that we don't need to hold back just because the OP decided to go silent.

And if we decide to move forward, and he decides to come back after we've moved on? He is free to join in with us.

Suggestion: Continue with elemental superteam, given that the absence of the author alone is not a crippling blow to its formation, assembly, convergence, or maintainence.

True ... Just trying to give the OP a chance so it does not seem like we are hijacking there idea is all.
