Blaster secondary

I had tried to make a blaster a few days ago and found i just did not as the secondary sets just did not fit too good. This may need the most done for power proliferation as there are very few of them, were on the villain side there are many more.

A sonic set would be nice, but to expand on this adding in kinetics, radiation, and storm may be easier than others. Ii thought would really be awesome Blaid, thorn, spine and katana the last four because the secondary sets have melee powers in them. Would love to have a pistol sword blaster on this line a single pistol blaster with less gun fu like movement would be good as well. Not getting off topic, We need more secondary sets for the blaster.


that's my 2 copper

I agree with the concept. Not sure if weapon type secondaries will work to well due to the redraw issues.

Super Strength, Kinetic Melee (power siphon on a blaster would be great!), Martial Arts, Street Justice might all port over to blaster manipulation sets.

Agree with you that sonic and radiation manipulations would be nice. As ArticFahx said the heavy buff/debuff sets probably would not make it as blaster sets.

Oh, and a sonic primary for dominator, too!

it sounds like you're asking for completely new power sets basically. I support that.

For the person that wants kin as blaster secondary ... they would likely mix KM and kin. meaning you'd loose FS, transferance, and the heal. most likely.

want a new sonic control set? check my signature ;D

A martial arts or hand-to-hand combat-based secondary for Blasters is long overdue. I'm not sure what the devs are waiting on. There is a well established history of players asking for this kind of secondary. Theme-wise, I would love to have a Dual Pistols/Martial Arts Manipulation blaster.

the blaster needs more secondary sets just look at them the one i am playing mow is energy / energy and the secondary has more melee attacks than i like. Heck the pistol or sword may only have 3 or so melee attacks the rest could be power ups or booster powers. Get creative

I have had a lot of ideas that i thought were good here are a few re posting them now hope some one will see

i have suggested a few things in the past none really have been commented on here is the fist on my list. thread is here http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=192217

I call this a good death when you die an alternate animation would play like for a robot pc would fall apart or explode no damage, a magic one would melt turn to a puddle or the energy would leave there body, natural maybe over act the death "must go int to the light " a demonic pc could be sucked back to hell "demon summon example" there are may different ones out there right now any of which could be used or modified with little effort.


second: travel power customization link here http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=195762

jet pack active when fly or jump used like the jet boots for the pack it would unfold from your back could also be used for wings normal and mechanical as do not like that thay stick out while running around on the ground or a winged demon on your back for fly a device they teleports or a runic circle appears and you teleport. I have more Ideas but just getting started. here is some more ideas i posted in another older link

The travel powers would be easy to do with what is in game now a heat shimmer for fly, or punching a few buttons on the arm like summoning pet to open a gate to step through, super sped could trail electric like, and super jump could send out some type of pulse from the feet. I had said some thing like this before but the last time i i said some things that are not in game already these could easily be taken from other places and made to work with the powers. I mean they all ready said they would may just have to wait a bit more down the road I my self love this game and will be here until I get too old to see the keys. A big thank you to all you guys that work on this game with out you a lot of my imagination would have never have thought of some very cool super heroes and there counter parts so thank you some day would love to some of my ideas come true and a major face lift to the game graphic wise.

even an older post i did again coped here for all to see again
What i would like to see is costume parts that inter act with the powers like the jet boots do with fly, like wrist bands that pop up to shoot lasers or automatic weapons fire, (i know its been said but jet packs that pop out of the back to work with the fly power and retract so there out of the way for those who use tech and science origins). Its a cool idea and may have been said before.


third: master mind powers link here were i posted in a thread about this http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=236458

let me expand on this a bit the choice of what powers for the master mind to use with the first would be nice like dual pistols for mercenary's would be nice or electrical for ninjas i really hate the bow and arrow. For the robots electrical would be nice as well and not the lazer gun which would be good for the mercenary's or thugs maybe what i am saying a sub power set under the first.

so there would be a sub set under the other example: pick your pets and pick your power sub with the minions think about it black lightning with zombies would be cool

again coped this from an older post i did here
I know this is off topic but the one thing i would like to see is the master mind primary sets divided to allow chose between the type of pets with the power ups in one list and the attack options in another example (the ninja master mind has a bow which i hate i would like the option to have electricity to go with the storm secondary). which would give the character a ninja magic feel. Going one step further having alternate pets would be great as well so those who do not want the magic route could have some thing besides the oni

most of these can be done with very little difficulty i think but would give so much more to the game and players
