Look, they're NOT going to put something into the game just because some clown suggested it on the forums.

I always thought a MM set Clown Summoning would be great. You could hit the summon power, your char would pull a horn out of his pocket and squeek it, shortly after, a tiny car would pull up and 50 clowns would get out!
I can even think of a power! Clown pulls the string of hankerchiefs out of his pocket, and lassos his target and pulls him closer to the group. Lets not forget the acid spraying flower for all my minions.
Wassabi Grav/Kin 50 (before badges/accolades were in game) Pinnacle
Miss Command Bots/Traps 50 Justice
*others left off due to space issues
And then, and then can we get carp melee, and dual archery, and all those other silly powersets?
This ain't Toon Town, sorry. This is just too silly and far too much of a joke-type set to actually work and be taken seriously and be used by a majority of the playerbase. I understand humor is good and all, but devoting the time and making an entire powerset out of summoning a bunch of circus clowns? Eehh.
However, if we ever get pet customization, you could always take mercs and just give them clown outfits.

The quote by the everwonderful Ron Perlman (who provides the narration for all Fallouts...except Brotherhood of Steel I believe...which was terrible) comes from the FIRST Fallout game and is used in every other Fallout game.
Infact it's basically the Fallout series catchphrase.

Ahem...I now return you to your regular non-nerdy channels.
You want clowns?

As clowns are evil, I'd be all for a villian MM set that summons clowns. Call it "Coulromancy". The level 18 power would summon up to 10 "clown posse" for you when you are in a jam, and would be called "Send in the clowns".
How could you hate clowns? They're only here to entertain us. And if they scare you then that's even more entertaining

If somehow the power is recharged when all ten clowns are still alive, the power will fail if you click on it again. The error message you receive is: "Don't bother, they're here."

This is like having Ra's Al Ghul show up at your birthday party.
