Hasten: Love/Hate Relationship

Hasten, great power makes many builds so much better but the flaming fists... I HATE THEM No but seriously have the devs ever discussed adding a minimal FX to hasten?

Power Pool Customization is something they want to do but is somewhat low priority. I have to think it'll be coming within the next few issues, though.

This has probably been one of the top ten animation suggestions for this game for years. A close second I've heard quite often is the dislike for the "flaming feet" of Super Speed.

I'm quite sure the Devs would like to give us options for these. It's just a matter of when they can do it.
Remember it took them years to add what power customization we do have so I wouldn't expect it anytime soon.
There's always hope of course...

Me thinks it's time for them to make it a high priority. You can never go wrong with giving players more customization.

huh, my love/hate relationship is with the sudden endurance burning when you're suddenly clicking through powers faster than you need to.

I considered getting hasten for my BS/SR, but she's already at an inherent 45% recharge boost and that's more than enough for her to always have an attack on hand, in fact, she rarely uses all her attacks anymore...

Hasten would improve her build up and elude recharge times, but that's it...not really worth the endurance burn....

Yes, put the Incarnate System, TFs, new general content and new Praetorian content on the backburner, we don't need those, fix hasten!

*coughs*

Edit: That is to say, it's low priority not because people don't want it, it's because there are alot of things already in the works that people want more.

I'm generally the same, though I also take hasten when I need to perma-something. Phantom Army, Domination, and Rage, for example.


...They should just take a poll and see if people want them to just eliminate the FX from Hasten altogether if they can't make it customizable. I know none of my hastened characters want it.
