See? it's really not that hard.

Hide comes form stalkers 2ndary not primary..they would just be summoning more shadow or bending more light or whatever preferred stealth mechanic they have.

Yeah, that kind of bugs me about people who think Stalker powers should be limited.|

They disagreed with /Shield stalkers because it apparently doesn't make sense.
Well it doesn't make sense that being invulnerable can make you invisible either!

"Peek". A peak of Titan Weapons in action would mean that Titan Weapon action has reached a high point, and will decrease in usage from here on out.
Of course, I will inevitably have made a silly grammar mistake in this post, despite my attempts to proofread, so the cycle will continue.
Edit: I somehow missed that this was already brought up on page 2. Oh well.
It's a start, I'll admit one concern i had was that they were announced a while ago and we had yet to see any ingame screenshots of the set working, just some concept art on the forums and pc gamer. here is hoping we see them for the Halloween event.

Nope, it means a dev or other beta tester was using the set.

Where to find me after the end:
The Secret World - Arcadia - Shinzo
Rift - Faeblight - Bloodspeaker
LotRO - Gladden - Aranelion
STO - Holodeck - @Captain_Thiraas
Obviously, I don't care about NCSoft's forum rules, now.

I'll at least try it on a Brute to see what kind of synergy the "momentum" mechanic has with Fury.

TBH, the whole "buster sword" thing never really appealed to me either, but I might try one anyway if it's fun to play regardless. |

I've seen a lot of people going on and on about titan weapons, I wondered what the reference was from and why people got so excited. Now I've seen the initial pics and understand what they mean I have to say... WTF! I'm confused now why anyone would find them awesome in any way shape or form.
I don't understand why the devs would bother to waste time on these. Part of me thinks maybe it's just a cheap and easy way of adding a silly new powerset to appease the players but I suspect there had to be some serious clipping issues to overcome given their size so maybe not so easy.
As they're so titan they should have a titan price on the market, 1600 points.

They look bloody stupid in Anime, they look bloody stupid in Final Fantasy and they look bloody stupid here.
I'll probably still make one.

There are several powersets in the game I'd never use, for various reasons. I still don't waste energy complaining about them... least of all on purely aesthetic grounds...

I'm also in the "This is stupid" camp. The game is going to look daft for a few weeks while people run around with weapon models which look like Jay got the scaling wrong. |

I've personally no problem with Paragon Studios making it (other than it shows a bit of a lack of imagination, but we'll see what weapons they make for it) but I reserve the right to laugh at all the ridiculous anime style characters running around with oversized protuberances next week.|

[TODO : insert George Takei "Oh my" image here]
I wish they'd get out of this Melee set rut though. I want a funky Control, Assault or Pet set with some new mechanics in it.
