The Gamespot article is... pretty bad, honestly. The writer is pretty clearly confused about.. well, basically everything. Someone should probably get in contact with them and correct it.

I24 Proc Chance = (Enhanced Recharge + Activation Time) * (Current PPM * 1.25) / 60*(1 + .75*(.15*Radius - 0.011*Radius*(360-Arc)/30))
Single Target Radius = 0. AoE Non-Cone Arc = 360.

As usually happens, massively.com benefits from having a "reporter" who specifically covers City of Heroes news.

More enemy group pieces and street clothes are in the works -- the main thing keeping some pieces out of the creator is that the team doesn't want players to make a perfect duplicate of a generic enemy model.
Hell-OOOO?! Does anyone remember, I dunno, VANGUARD? ROMANS? VEATS? Has someone over there had a complete damn brain failure? Not like Players have their names floating above their heads or anything like that, eh?

Ugh....sorry, but that tired old horse needs to stop getting beaten, aleady. It's already decomposing in the sun as it is...

Nice to see it's finally dropped that maybe re-vamping the old junk from I1 and such is a GOOD idea. Not like I and others have been mentioning it for frag alone knows how long...

Oh, and I remember why I don't frequent sites like those often; because all the posters there seem to blow bubbles of goo while wearing their freaking underwear on their heads...
'Ripped off DCUO'? Uh....it....bu......
It's been out seven years long thern DCUO you plebian, ignorant trog!! Je-sus!
