don'T attempt to read tHis mEssaGe, And believe Me, it is not a codE.
- Travel Power: Shopping Cart Surfing
- Non-Combat Pet: Tribbles: Two Tribbles moving within a certain range of one another causes a chance to summon a new Tribble, which then has a chance of summoning a new Tribble with each of the previous Tribbles... and so on...
- Temp Power: Banana Peel: causes knockdown, with a chance to make the target slide around first like they were on an ice patch
- Temp Power: Toy Hammer: smacking your target with this oversized inflatable hammer causes a massive taunt, and a whimsical squeaking noise

Power Name: Level: Effect:
Poofter 1 Ranged, Minor DMG (Energy), Foe -DEF (All)
Ripper 1 Ranged, Minor DMG (Energy), Foe -DEF (All)
Bucksnort 2 PBAoE, Moderate DoT (Energy), Foe -DEF (All), Disorient
Thunderblast 6 Close (Cone), Moderate DMG (Energy), Foe -DEF (All), Knockback, Disorient
Chaingun 8 Sniper, Superior DMG (Energy), Foe -DEF
Cramping (Build Up) 12 Self +DMG, +To-Hit
Omnidirectional 18 Ranged (Targeted AoE), Moderate DMG (Energy), Foe -DEF (All)

Tearass Blast 32 PBAoE, Extreme DMG (Energy/Smash), Foe Hold, -DEF (All), Self -Recovery
They could do the above or they could give us a really cool farting emote like we have for burping. This would involve the emote for Hmmm (plotting), frustrated, then one for raising the hip/butt cheek, and finally finish it off with evil laugh.
Current active characters: Dragon Maiden (50+3 Brute SS/WP/PM), Black Widow Maiden (50+1 Night Widow), Catayclasmic Ariel (50 lvl Defender - Kin/DP), Quantumshock (50 lvl Elect/Energy/Energy), American's Defender (38 lvl Tanker - SD/Mace), Spider-Maiden (15 lvl Corruptor - RB/PD) & Siren Shrike (15 lvl Defender - Sonic/Sonic). My entire stable.

I want Giant Atomic Ants to punch out. That's right, I want a bunch of extras from Them! to battle and punch in the face. I want to fight six legged insectoid Volkswagens, and I want to do it for justice.
Because seriously. Giant ants.

I concur...Toxic should be added...and the effects should be the same as the "stun" you get with Dual Pistols' Incendinary Stun shot. |

Not just any old justice, either. That's for regular ants.|

Giant ants? That's for Great Justice!

They do have diseases characters can get. It would be kind of cool if when you left a sewer you had a bad smell effect for 5 minutes.|

I want paper flying around in offices - hit a desk and send a stack of paper flying. They have paper drifting around outside in vacant lots.

Indeed. It also needs a stealth attack, "Silent but deadly".|

Perhaps a confuse aura: "They who smelt it, dealt it!"
"Smell my justice!"

Actually, making all the mugging spawns have a random chance of starting a special mission might be a good way of getting more people to fight the street mobs |

The Jade Spider is a little too big, and I always find fighting it weird. The giant ants from Them! are more on the scale of, say, trucks or large cars. Some of the larger Tarantulas are about the right scale.|

Goodbye may seem forever
Farewell is like the end
But in my heart's the memory
And there you'll always be
-- The Fox and the Hound
Things I want but know can/will never happen;
I want a true Giant Monster, ala Godzilla. Something that towers over the skyscrapers in Talo's.
I want to fight Rularuu.
I want to be able to grapple.
I want to be able to dodge projectiles.
Maestro Mavius - Infinity
Capt. Biohazrd - PCSAR
Talsor Tech - Talsorian Guard
Keep Calm & Chive On!
...but know you never will.
The devs are working hard today preparing for tomorrows launch of I22 and the inevitable bucket list of complaints and bugs.
So, today, let's give them a bit of a break and have some fun posting about silly, wacky things you would like to see in CoH but know you never will.
My top 10 list is as follows:
+ VERBAL ASSAULT Melee power set
+ Walking citizens stopping to watch street fights
+ Paragon City tours on the blimp above Atlas Park
+ Swim from IP to Rogue Isles
+ Breeching Whales in the waters around Talos
+ Fishermen on all the beaches
+ OBNOXIOUS ODORS defense set
+ Sewer workers in the sewers
+ Bird mobs that attack from the air
+ Wandering NPC's that give special quests when found
Fairly lame, I know, so help me out here....!
