Temp Powers

I think it would be a good idea if we could continually craft temp powers even if we already have one crafted. Crafting more should just add more charges onto the power you have. That way if I want to have grenades, I can take the time and craft a ton of them so I can use them freely.


Jay Doherty: Yes, there was this one night that I was ready to go home but had to drop the browns off at the super bowl before I left for home. While on the throne it hit me. I stayed for a few more hours and that why we have the pain pads in the game.

I agree.

That would be a very nice QoL feature. There are some temp powers (such as Warburg Nukes) where it would be necessary to either block stacking or implement a VERY long recharge timer but for most of the powers the ability to craft and stack multiple copies would hardly be game breaking.

The issue is how easy/difficult is it to do? Unfortunately I suspect the answer is "not easy". This is based on the fact that the temp powers in the Lambda Trials do not stack charges but instead give you a bunch of single charge powers.

/\ agreed. When starting out a new Toon in Praetoria, Red or Blue side, I always run to the market and pick-up the Jet Pack Recipe. I then find a crafting table and get myself a jet pack until I can get decent travel powers in the later levels. The problem here is you are given only 30 minutes of usage for this temp power. You cannot replace it before it runs out. This sucks because when your timer gets low, you may be in other action and not be able to re-craft another jet pack again right away, and if you're in a place like the Hollows, you're screwed. Having the ability to store a few jet pack temp powers would be nice and not limit it to just one at a time.

Sure, don't see why we couldn't do this. There are a lot of character concepts that call for certain powers only available as a temp power, it'd be nice to be able to stock up on charges.
