New Mastermind Secondaries

And by "Secondaries", I mean PRIMARIES! XD [thread title whoops!]

Hooray for Beast Mastery!!! I sure hope they can find what they need to customize the pets. panthers would be much cooler than lions, IMO. Anyway! New Mastermind Primaries, my ideas. The last two sets [the only new sets since the AT was brand spankin new if you dont count Thugs] have incorporated some of the most difficult animations, fx, and models yet in game. whips, and the coveted four legged model rigs.

Why not... give us... a not so difficult to make set that is requested, and would please many?

How?

Count the blast sets not yet incorporated into a MM primary [plenty to choose from].
[this can give you your two single targets and a cone or AoE]
Subtract the two upgrades [easy schmeasy].
that leaves four powers that would need to be made from scratchy scratch:
the three pet tiers...
and one wild card power to match the set.

match the numbers to other MM sets and voilà! A new MM set for all to enjoy.
I'm not saying to scramble together a half -hearted set... but rather... "dont break your backs. we just want new pets."

I have brainstormed a few sets as examples of not-from-scratch-and-not-as-intense-as-whips-or-wolves, as im sure many other players have, and these are some sets i would love to see happen and dont think would be too difficult. organized like this:

SET NAME
-minion/pet basis, models/NPCs used as a base, then edited to differentiate.
-three blast powers.
-wild card power.
[upgrades are not described because they are basically a buff animation related to the set theme, plus pet costume changes and power upgrades.]

feel free to add your own that you think are doable, without painstaking work of whips or four legged rigs that the devs lovingly made for us [and are awesome but seriously, you dont have to do that again. XD]

ok here i go






SWAMP SUMMONING
- altered tuatha models
- toss stump, swamp water [like bile spray cone], hurl boulder
- Swamp Creature [enhance and transform a minion into a living swamp mass of plant and earth matter for a time increasing their max hp and dmg output] example: serum for mercs

PIRATES
- um... pirates.
- pistol, sword cone or net throw, canon
- Treasure Raid - [a series of explosions in a wide targeted area reduce enemy to hit and your pirates raid them with increased dmg and rech] example: ninjas... sorta...

WIND SUMMONING
- storm elementals, dust devils
- three wind blast powers, one could be similar to scirocco's desert winds. a single target, a cone, and a targeted AoE
- a pbAoE windstorm that increases pet dmg resistance and to-hit, example: beast fortify pack

ARBOREANS
- razorvine, rosethorn
- thorn darts, plant immob, fling thorns
- carrion creepers as wild card power, example: hell on earth/soul extraction -ish

MULTIPLICITY
- doppelganger/clones [combo of meelee like street justice and maybe psi for the ranged lt/boss pets?]
- psi blast [you have a telepathic link to your clones :P]
- heal clone, + max HP +regen + recov, example: repair robots

CIRCUS/CLOWNS
-carnie based, six different looking clown/carnival/circus people. clown, strong man, feathery-showgirl-lady, tightrope walkers/acrobats
-ring toss? fire breath? not illusion based. whip would have made more sense here :P
-Main Event - Elephant temp summon with a sonic cone and smashing dmg, example: pet summon like soul extraction. or a bunch of clowns come out of a tiny car... example: thugs gang war



ok done. i think these sets could happen, be awesome and me more than half-hearted compiled sets [and be awesome quality like everything else the lovely devs give us ] and wont require an uber hard work at the same time. a few new animations, ya, but not as intense as whips with giant noisy demons or wolves, wolves, and more wolves.

i think a lot of players would be happy, and heck, sell them. more minions, less trouble, happy campers everywhere.

i have already stated some thing about this topic check my signature

:meow!:

whoops by seconadaries i meant primaries. my dumb mistake. otherwise though, im not talking about MM customization, but rather new MM sets altogether, so in that sense, the search thread wont really help :P.

and yes, probably all of my pet suggestions have been suggested before. but my thread was intended to make the point that...

"MM sets dont have to be as difficult as demons and beast have been to make."

super dumb error with my thread title, yep [thats what happenes when you dont get enough sleep!], but that chart points me still to "proceed." and i meant to also post the actual suggestions in the powers thread [which i would have done but didnt have enough time at the moment of posting]. I will add my suggestions there, and edit my original post here, thread titles cant be changed, right? or can they :/ im not a form-pro.

thanks for your slightly condescending yet generous and helpful [especially with the title! XD] feedback, Forbin Project.

:edit: fixed the title! my badz.
:edit edit: jk, i cant figure out how to change the title of the thread, just the post, maybe i cant? :shrug: oh well.
