1. At first, I thought, "Ash, aren't Pain and Emp pretty much the same?" Then I went and compared them and I'm on board for this. The first 4 powers threw me and having never played Emp before I started my Pain Corruptor, I just made assumptions. Silly me.
5. And maybe consider some alternate models for some sets?
7. Carp? Like the fish?
8. More costume options to get Ashley buying more points? Grrr...
9. Another thing I didn't really notice until you mentioned it. Interesting. Though at least I can color some stuff so I'm more or less happy, but this would be very cool.
10. After all this time, my highest level character is only 41. I should do something about that.
I hope you get at least something on your list!

7) Yes, like a giant frozen fish. Are there other Carp dangers I should know about?
9) The alternate colors are definitely appreciated. But they gave some sets whole new animations to use (see: Super Strength and Martial Arts). On the other side, look at the blast sets. For some powers you can change the animation, but look how often the same animation gets repeated. The blast and control sets were badly done, IMO. Seems like they were very rushed, and then never did any more work on it.
10) Haha. Probably, but this game is what you want it to be. But look at Weapon Mastery for Scrappers. Shuriken is just a damage power, nothing else (and does some of the most resisted damage type in the game), yet it does less damage than Char, which is also a hold. Granted, it recharges very quickly, but it's just a poor power. Exploding Shuriken is in a similar position: doing less damage than similar powers, but it doesn't even get the recharge bonus.

If there are other carp dangers, I may wish to remain ignorant, just for the sake of my sanity.
More animations would be amazing. Those little touches are part of why I still love this game's aesthetics, despite the warts (how old ARE all those cars on Paragon's streets, and why are there only about 16 per neighborhood? - I think I understand why, but it's a visual/aesthetic quirk for sure). In fact, CoX seems to have better overall animation and camera control that some other games launched this year (SWTOR, frex). To me, at least.
As for 10, yes, I got frustrated with her and parked her and only trot her out because she's my first ever character and I'm attached. But I have a newfound love and we'll see how that one does. Then I can experience the imbalance firsthand! Dominator pools, here I come.

... and I will admit to misreading carp armor/melee. *hangs head*
Wanted: Origin centric story arcs.
If you've only played an AT once (one set combo) and "hate" it - don't give up. Roll a different combo. It may just be those sets not clicking for you.
13: Power Pool Customization (most notably hasten and super speed, I don't really care about any of the others)
14: Hybrid and Genesis release, potentially Mind and Vitae release too.
15: fixing numerous bugs with in league UI when entering trials.
16: taunt auras in damage auras for scrappers
17: increased pace on issue releases.
18: WST for incarnate trials
19: more forums open to prems
20: changing the crash on crash nukes from -100% end and -1000% recovery to -75% end and -1000% recovery
21: More TW models
22: balance between the recharge of Soul Drain in Soul Mastery and the recharge of Soul Drain in Dark Mastery for Corrs and Defs (making both 120 sec base, not 240 -_-)
23: reduction of Marcone Capo badge required for that one villain accolade from 200 to 100 to put it in line with the other accolade badge requirements that were all lowered except this badge.
24: Dark Astoria Revamp.
25: Moar statesman death.
26: increased pace on issue releases. (again)
1) More powerset proliferation:
Pain Domination for Controllers and Defenders, Empathy for Corruptors and MMs (these two have no more thematic limitations since we can start any AT from either side now)
<While I don't particularly care for it, I can understand why you might want it.>
Snip
2) New IO sets, especially for areas like targeted AoE damage, which have fewer sets than they should. This includes Purple sets for Defense, Resistance, Fear, etc. The last sets that were added were the PvP IOs.
<I agree entirely. I want my purple Travel IOs!>
3) Since it's a wishlist, let's get a new AT or two in here as well: A (Buff/Debuff)/Melee AT and a Melee/(Buff/Debuff) AT.
<I have one on the AT thread in my sig that I came up with...Man I wish someone else could add their own AT suggestions to it. It's getting lonely...>
snip
6) Psychic Armor
<Yes. Plain and simple.>
snip
9) More alternate animations. C'mon Devs, even you know this was done of half-@$$ed. 4 new animations give to dozens of powers isn't what the players were asking for, and you know it.
<Fireworks Energy blast FTW!>
10) Do some balancing of the Ancillary/Patron Pools. Some of them are just laughably weaker than others for no reason.
11) Speaking of which, give us some new Ancillary Pools, and give blueside characters some way of opening up the patron pools without having to switch sides. I'd pay for that last one, actually.
<Or give them their own.>
snip
Open Archetype Suggestion thread!, Kirsten's Epic Weapon Pools, Feudal Japan, Etc., Alignment specific Rularuu iTrials!
If Masterminds didn't suck, they'd be the most powerful AT in the game.

Well, now there's a name that starts one of those "blast from the past" moments for me.
Welcome back Ash.
EDIT: I'll have to keep my eyes peeled for Cybored and Shrapnel now.
If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

EDIT: I'll assume you are still playing on Justice. If so, and if you have enough of the Paragon Rewards to fill Tier 3, you'll have access to global channels. I'd recommend joining Justice For All and/or Justice United as they are the major global channels on Justice. I see teams forming in JFA regularly (can't say for JU since I'm not in it, but I'm sure teams are formed regularly there as well).

Worst case, if you haven't already done Montague's arc to open up Club access, you may need an invention license to craft the Lost cure -- and I'm not even 100% sure about that. Even if you do, that part can be bypassed if you find someone willing to help you out (join their team when they're doing the arc; as long as you're there when they talk to the Latin student at the end, you'll get access).
FUN FACT: That burst of light when you level up is actually the effectiveness escaping from your enhancements all at once.

I'm mostly on Virtue right now, but I've unlocked all my Justice characters too, and got invited to an SG with Cinn just in time for me to get busy and now I'm probably dropped from it. /sigh
I was subbed off and on for well over three, maybe close to 4 years, so I'm...Tier 7? I'll be sure to add those channels, thanks. =)
Ros:
I always assumed ITF meant Incarnate Task Force and that I wouldn't be able to play those. There I go with my assumptions again. Geeze, you'd think I'd learn. At any rate, the Invention license is one thing I spend points on so I should be good there.
Oh crap, I just totally threadjacked this thing, I'm so sorry Aett! Back to the topic at hand!
Re: Psychic Armor...
How would that work?
More...
16. Yes, as I understand my poor WP tank has a bad taunt aura. It would explain a few things (well, so would the fact I'm only 27, but that's neither here nor there).
19. Pretty please.
21. Giddy at the thought.
That's all I got. =)

Naw, those are incarnate trials (or iTrials, but some people don't like that term for some reason). The incarnate task forces are usually just referred to by name -- Tin Mage, for example.

I would love to see a Player Summit somewhere east of the Rockies - ideally, for me, that means between Pittsburg and Indianapolis, north of Louisville - but DC or Richmond would at least be a start.
Power Customization for Ancillary Power Pools - I can color Fire Blasts from Pri/Sec whatever color I want, but then I'm stuck with orange for anything in the Ancillary.
This one will seem picky, but it still grates on my nerves - please for the love of little green apples, can someone please, please, please go through all the NPC text and fix grammar and spelling?
Textures for some of the old costume pieces, so they don't look painted on.

I know that there is no chance of these going in before Christmas, of course. It's more of a list of things I've been wanting for a while now, and since it's Christmas time, I feel like it's time to sit on Santa's lap and get some requesting in.
1) More powerset proliferation:
Pain Domination for Controllers and Defenders, Empathy for Corruptors and MMs (these two have no more thematic limitations since we can start any AT from either side now)
Ice Melee Stalkers
Energy Armor for Tankers
2) New IO sets, especially for areas like targeted AoE damage, which have fewer sets than they should. This includes Purple sets for Defense, Resistance, Fear, etc. The last sets that were added were the PvP IOs.
3) Since it's a wishlist, let's get a new AT or two in here as well: A (Buff/Debuff)/Melee AT and a Melee/(Buff/Debuff) AT.
4) Do some rebalancing of sets that need it. Powersets should not be left massively weaker or massively stronger than other sets for as long as some of them have.
5) New Mastermind powersets: Pirates (spectral or otherwise), Wizards, Sidekicks (super-powered henchmen), Elementals
6) Psychic Armor
7) Carp Armor/Carp Melee
8) Complete some of the existing costume sets. I can have Steampunk Armor chest, legs, and gloves, but no boots?
9) More alternate animations. C'mon Devs, even you know this was done of half-@$$ed. 4 new animations give to dozens of powers isn't what the players were asking for, and you know it.
10) Do some balancing of the Ancillary/Patron Pools. Some of them are just laughably weaker than others for no reason.
11) Speaking of which, give us some new Ancillary Pools, and give blueside characters some way of opening up the patron pools without having to switch sides. I'd pay for that last one, actually.
12) a DC Player Summit. Yes, I know this is just me being lazy/cheap, but it would be fun for me.
That should do for now. C'mon Santa, you know I've been a (relatively) good boy.
