Battle Damaged pack (Ideas)
I like it.
You see me now a veteran of a thousand psychic wars My energy's spent at last and my armor is destroyed I have used up all my weapons and I'm helpless and bereaved Wounds are all I'm made of... Dare you say that this is victory?!? |

It is a good idea. I am not sure if I would personally purchase it, but I can see where a lot of people would use this. The only issue I see is the drip aura. Off the top of my head, I can't think of a single instance where there is visible blood and/or gore in this game, so I think you'd be hard pressed to get an aura like that, or any body details that were too graphic. That's not to say that they aren't worth having, but I don't think they fall in the 'T' rating.
@Winter. Because I'm Winter. Period.

I am a blaster first, and an alt-oholic second.

to add to your emotes suggestion they have a really nice animation already that exists in one of the newer story arcs. Its the arc where your good doppleganger helps you stop proteans invasion and dies in the process at the portal. Don't know what arc it is but I do remember running it before. That should really be a player emote.

I would love to just have "turn on ragdoll" emote..
Like the NPC's have after they are defeated..
I dunno, I just always get a laugh out of ragdolls, and would like to toggle that on a ramp or something and watch my toon roll down hill xD
I really like this idea. I hope it gets the wheels turning. /signed!

/Signed, would buy
GG, I would tell you that "I am killing you with my mind", but I couldn't find an emoticon to properly express my sentiment.

Sweet suggestion! As an addition they could add a prestige "Limping Shuffle/Run"!
It does sound awesome. I would definitely buy it if it were made.
It would also be cool if they could add a second option for armors for said pack. There'd be the normal, shiny armor; then there would be a scuffed, scratched, and charred version of the same armor. Maybe add some charred options for the skin in addition to scars. Would definitely be cool.

I apologize if this is in the wrong section; in my defense it IS a suggestion.
Well, we all want new costume parts and stuff like that, and I've been discussing with some friends about some of these, and they seemed to like the ideas.
Battle Damaged
Well, if you're a roleplayer like me, you'll eventually come across the need for a scar or two on your character from some dramatic (Or even not so dramatic) event in their life... and personally, the "Scar-faces" aren't cutting it. (pun not intended)
And before I get into detail, please remember that this game is already rated T, meaning that the rules of "E" games aren't applied; so we do have a right to these things.
Costume pieces
The costume pieces would include something along the lines of...
Ripped shirts (Instead of always needing to use "Tattered Robes" or the "Blast" detail)
Battle scars for chest details (E.g. giant slice going across the body; obvious cut marks; bruises; etc)
New Scarred faces (Adding scars to some of the basic/common faces (why can't someone have a kid with a scar on his eye/cheek without using the details, why is it always old men that have to have scars?)
Torn shoes
Torn gloves
And stuff along the lines of that...
Auras
No costume pack is complete without an Aura or two...
Liquid drip; little droplets of liquid falling off the character and disappearing into a small puddle below - This could be used for more than just blood (Though that would be its intentional use). Coloring it, you could make it look like tears, water, goo, or even oil dripping from the character.
Glowing scar; A scar that slowly pulsates (Chest: Big glowing scar that goes down the chest. Hands: Small scar or scars that are either on the back of the hands, or start from the hands and go down the wrists. Head: Scar on the cheek). - Could be used as glowing tattoo or something instead of a scar. Just thinking practical use.
Powers
Still Alive - Rez which grants 50% HP and 25% End recovered. No stun. 30 minute recharge.
Emotes
Unconscious - Fall down on the ground, almost in a mixture of the "bum slump" and "Dead slab" emotes.
Injured 1 - Standing up, bending over slightly as you grab your left arm.
Injured 2 - Keeling, grabbing your left arm.
Some things could be improved, renamed, and rethought of... but the general idea is worthy of consideration. Constructive thoughts would be appreciated.
