I'd say it's actually been necessary for missions since release. There's the "Crey have cloned you" mission, and it's just weird that a clone of an Invulnerability/Super Strength should turn out to be an Energy Blast/Regeneration.

I don't think they've gone back to fix that, but if they haven't, they should.

So the new hamidon stuff looks like an enemy from Metroid.

BTW, do you think the next EATS could be DE (magic origin) and Imperial Forces (tech origin)?
That's a few extra decades of unchecked evolution for you.

What I want to know is what's keeping that thing aloft.

Gas bags would be cool, but I'd be more scared if DE had evolved gravity control/telekinesis.

Hamidon in Praetoria has been described as having a level of psionic powers.

This makes him seem kind of like a certain assimilating alien race from a popular RTS by a Korean game studio named for a snowy weather phenomenon.

By thew way, the Seed launched "fighters" out of "docking bays", according to the devs - so it sounds like an organic flying aircraft carrier.

BTT, Id like to get a tentacles- or at least a two-whip-set... kinda like Omega Red, Constrictor or Whiplash(from iMan2).
On a second thought, combine that with the DE-Epic-idea and it would be... well, epic

I'd like, in no specific order:

Martial Arts secondary for ranged AT's
Dark/Dark Blaster.
Duplicate Summoning for MM's
PPD/Vangaurd/Longbow/ any heroic group summoning for MM's (we need Hero counterpoints now.)
Themed sets like
Super Speed. Which would include the applicable pool and themed powers such as multi punch and spin moves etc. Ala The Flash, his only power is SS.
Elemental. Could draw from all the various elemental powers in game for either ranged or melee.
Streetfighting melee set. Less martial arts more brawling.
Super strength for scrappers!


Maestro Mavius - Infinity
Capt. Biohazrd - PCSAR
Talsor Tech - Talsorian Guard
Keep Calm & Chive On!

Oooh, imagine a hellfire whip melee set... I like the idea of using the MM pet upgrade animation as a hold/DOT attack that has a root time as long as the hold/DOT (though it would have to be a big DOT)

The seers aren't wearing cowls, unless there's a new cowl with tentacles.
