All the carnie pieces combined, without the mace, are 'just' 280 points. It's when you add the mace at 3x80 points (1 per body type) that the price goes above the 400 threshhold.|

Since I don't have a single mace wielding character, and am not very likely to ever get one, let alone one of each body type all using the carnie mace, I just bought the costume pieces seperately (except the boots, won't use those either).
Just to say that I agree with the pack being to expensive for what's in it.

Whoever added the doggie paddle in the water for the German Shephard pet and the Coyote travel power made me laugh out loud.
Well done.

Travel power that de-toggles you and 'greys' out all other powers? Never gonna do it. Sorry. Banked some more of my points

Honestly, I'd settle for them doing it at initial purchase. Group 3-4 of these powers into a "bundle" at a discounted price. When you come out with more powers, group those up too and call them "bundle #2" or whatever.|

Own Beast Run? Buy Ninja Run for less, because it's just a cosmetic bonus at that point. Same thing for Rocketboard and Magic Carpet. That would make the Coyote shift a one time buy-in for future quadrupedal travel powers instead of an overpriced waste that could easily be replaced by something I like better in the future (like happened with the rocketboard I bought and the carpet that I would rather have). |
As it stands I've bought none of them because:
a) the de-toggling thing instead of toggle suppression is annoying
and
b) I can't make up my mind which 1 power to get because it's just too many points to buy them all. I had waited for a sale on rocket board then they put out the carpet the same week it went on sale and I ended up getting neither because now I couldn't decide if I wouldn't rather have the carpet. >.>;
I'll be honest, I'm weak. Package them up for me so I get them all at a discounted price and I'm likely to buy it.
Dear Paragon Studios,
With this first animal transformation power, it's easy for me to get caught up in wishing it had color customization, the ability to add capes, auras, be a wolf, shepherd, retriever, coyote, and so on... BUT... You know how it goes with these games... The better it is, the more we imagine and the more we want!
I want to congratulate you for actually getting this sort of power into this game!!
It is really awesome and I know it took a lot of time and work to get these skeletons into the game and devising ways to make options like this an actuality!
Congratulations and thanks!
I'm hoping, one day, over time, we may see a lot of these options added and then, maybe, a new customer would be able to buy packs that might include all sorts of individual options (if customization never becomes a possibility). A Canine Pack. A Feline Pack. An Avian Pack... and so on and so forth!
Those, however, are dreams for the future... for now... Awesome!
