Dual Pistols / Super Reflexes

Everybody flaming Equilibrium is wrong. Celestial Lord is right, even though it will never happen.

Seldom's post is ridiculous and milehigh77 is ridiculous for reposting it.

Yeah, I can see your point, especially with their stacked grant covers making Parry not always as reliable as it is against everything else. I kind of went with a black&white argument here and forgot it's perfectly possible to have too much mitigation for the task at hand while not having enough to overaggro.

How's this for another approach ? *A-hem* :

See, that is where a ranged/armor AT could have it's use ! Romans don't hit so hard at range, and with ranged attacks you could just shoot a targeted AoE on them and lure them to the tanker in relative safety.

I would imagine a ranged / armor AT would have Corruptor level damage, with Scrapper level armor. I fail to see how that would be unbalanced. As far as contributing to teams, they would contribute just as much as any Kheldian. Yes, Kheldians have their specific weakness, but it's been watered down so much over time that it's practically pointless.

Make a new archetype for heroes and villians wanting certian defensive and offensive powers, just use some of the scrapper and stalkers secondary sets,( i think heroes should hide too) and with the scrapping primary power set limit the use as a secondary and use it as a halfway secondary defensive with only stuns,knockdowns,slows and knockback etc.
You could call heroes Crusaders(like Batman)for heroes and Vandals for villians or whateveryou want its your game lol.

Any AT name: Blast/Defense

Guardian: Buff/Melee

Trickster: Control/Defense like Faultline (with some minor attacks in place of 1 or 2 powers, so they can solo)

... Kinda odd for a duplicate post three hours later.

I once had a really long conversation with someone who was bent out of shape over the power being "Empty Clips" and not "Empty Magazines", completely ignoring the realities of colloquial English.

'Colloquial' doesn't mean 'not dumb'.

Nothing to get bent out of shape over, but still, wouldn't mind that getting corrected. Not that it's going to happen, mind you. I think BAB once said that old power names are pretty much not going to get changed, ever, in response to people pointing out how retardedly named the Super Strength powers were.

The OP did. Read the post again.

I think it would be cool to see a Blaster seconday called Tactics, or Tactical Manipulation or somethin like that. Since Blaster secondaries get a few melee and control powers in their secondaries, make it a sort of combo between traps and martial arts. They've mashed other sets together to create the Dom assault sets, why not this for blasters? Besides, i hate devices and it'd be a good alternative

Dunno if anyone has already said anything like this or not...got lazy after first page =P

Oh and I agree that just giving scrappers DP would be terrible enough to kill kittens.
