Enough of the solo/group warfare: We need more power proliferation!

Borrowing a page from Khelds and VEATS, what if instead of more powersets for AT's we were offered more power choices inside the powersets we have?

Think a branching choice between widow or fort, or khelds who spec dwarf vs nova, or try the tri form builds. Say being able to take a blaster and be offered powers to spec more single target (hey some of us like it =p) over more aoe centric powers? Or be offered more utlity powers in a manip set over the melee attacks in a concession for those who don't like blapping?

Maybe a bit easier on the devs then porting over a whole new set for AT's and trying to get the damage and buff tables right?

Ice Armor was removed in DEV of CoV in a VERY heated debate. Basically Ice Brutes can't generate Rage because everything they do is to slow down or prevent attacks.

So GOOD NEWS: everything needed to implement Ice Brutes already exists. BAD NEWS: it doesn't work.

Many players wanted a complete rework of Ice powers but Devs didn't have time for that stuff (it sounds easy but is a big undertaking). Me I would just make Brutes with Ice powers pick up Rage a little faster (per power set) and say "It is what it is, you don't like it play a Fire Brute". But I think they are nicer.

You can't please everyone, so lets concentrate on me.

Proliferate fire/thermal from corruptors to defender makes no sense to me.
Who would play defender, if you could play corruptor?
What we need for proliferations are kind of unique or needed things.
Like:
Martial arts secondary for blasters
Illusion for dominators
I need those sets NAO.

I tend to prefer defenders over corruptors since the buff powers come faster and with higher values.


Too many alts to list.

If you go to the Brute forums, there's a thread on Ice Brutes. I have said this about fifty times now: The mechanics if Ice will no longer affect Fury due to Fury changes. It's been proven.

Ice Brutes now please.
