Just a couple ideas me and a few people came up with :)

I figured I would post a few of them even though most are purely cosmetic.

1. The ability to customize the coloring of all the ancillary pools including the epics (Possibly not patron powers because you are pretty much mimicking a set character's powers.. though it would be nice) Honestly I was a little surprised that you could not when they first allowed power customization. Very few characters match things like hasten, also the ability to minimal FX hasten, and a lot of the other pool powers would be nice too... like no fire trail on SS.

2. Customizable granite armor, and Or the ability to minimal FX it and other all other armor sets.

3. For all the interface debuffs to be color customizable. (Lets face it having a character that does not use yellowish attacks randomly give the mobs a yellow/orange glow is just odd)

4. More alternate animations to certain sets, the first that comes to mind is stone melee, I'd LOVE to have an all punching version of it and on the flip side an all mallet version, since some characters don't really fit a mallet or sometimes the punching attacks. Same thing could be said with fire melee or even ice.

5. A two handed heavy melee weapon set, and I don't mean another clone of Broad Sword, Katana or Mace. I am talking a giant claymore type of weapon. Preferably with many sweeping cone attacks or slightly longer reach head splitter type attacks. Even something like a war staff or spear type weapon would be awesome... scythes also come to mind. Of course you would not be able to combo shields with these.

6. Another friend of mine has always been bothered by the lack of a "holy" blasting set. I know you can recolor energy for concept, but it would be interesting to see a holy light styled blasting set. Maybe it would do something like -dmg or even have a chance to stun with every attack. No terrible KB though. >_>

7. Last one on the list... rad melee and rad armor. Nuff said really.

That about sums up some of the ideas we had. Just figured I'd get the ideas out there.. it's doubtful any of this will be added but who knows.


Anyway I am a fairly big noob on these forums so I apologize in advance if this is posted in the wrong area.

wOOt, first one to say it:

This isn't the suggestions forum. Please post in the right place.

Aaah, it feels good to be a jerk. Heh. =)

Ahh okay finally found the right place, did not think it would be in the "for fun" area of the forums as I consider general community feedback regardless what it is more important then that. So I figured a "general" powers discussion area would make sense.

Anyway my bad people, will resubmit this into the right place

1. I think this might happen. I think Tunnel Rat at least acknowledged that they are aware of this request, but nothing further has been said.

2. Tricky but they are aware of the request - this has been asked for many times.

3. No, absolutely not. You are talking about a power that has a stack limit independent of source. Think about it - if a league is pounding on the same target and everyone has a different interface color, that's going to be kind of ridiculous.

4. Interesting, and probably possible. Expect to get animations ported from other sets for all the alts, and no new ones, outside of adding effects.

5. Unlikely - you can make every version of your idea already in the game.

6. Very good idea - but let's get detailed. What would the second effect be for this, using existing tech? Energy has kb, dark has -tohit, fire has dot, etc.

7. Ehhhh I don't get how rad armor and melee would even work thematically - BUT how about sonic armor and melee?

Radiation Melee and Radiation Armor have been suggested before.

Here's my take on Rad. Melee, and my take on Rad. Armor.

So yes, I think they can work thematically within the game.

The problem with the suggestions section is this game is 7 years old.
At this point it's like Southpark>Simpsons. It's all been suggested multiple times in the past.

So you have a few diehard vets that patrol the section like predators stalking game waiting for the next inevitable (and it will happen) unaware poster that thinks his idea for vehicles in game is the most original thing ever! Then they make the suggestion, are shot down in flames (usually with a polite yet snarky copypaste and proceed to get overly defensive because, maybe we haven't seen it from their view yet...

So, I have no problem with people posting suggestions outside of that PvP zone.

Though, you gotta /facepalm sometimes when those threads come up and the poster doesn't want to hear the valid reasons.
