Whee.
There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan. If you're Unleashed, I'm dumps. I'll try and get registered on the Titan Forums as well. Peace, and thanks for the best nine years anyone could ever ask for.
sooo...a bunch of IOs almost noone uses...and still no staff fighting.
Whee, indeed.
Things to remember:
-Common sense ain't;
-Overkill is the only kill;
-If someone asks if you're a god, run away.
Was that a tumbleweed that just blew by?

Eh... I'll grab some character slots to fill out my servers while they're on sale. Nothing else particularly interesting in these sales to me, travel IOs are basically worthless ingame, so they're not worth spending real money to get, and I practically only ever use the procs anyway, so the level-scaling benefit wouldn't matter either.
Note: even on sale the price for enhancement unslotters is ludicrous. Six bucks to pull the enhancements out of one power? I'd sooner respec, Jesus.

Time to play the waiting game again and wait for Tuesday, the 17th. Only two Tuesdays left.
"Spend all of your stipend points so that you have to purchase points once we actually release Staff Fighting."
At least, that's the subliminal message I receive from this. They made me a liar by not releasing Staff Fighting this week.
That said, I think this week accomplishes one very important thing: MICROtransactions.
This may be the first week I actually buy something for which I have no immediate use, because 10 bucks for 5 character slots is a damn good deal.
@Winter. Because I'm Winter. Period.
I am a blaster first, and an alt-oholic second.
Sigh.
Better luck next week.
It will be next week.

I cant even get mad anymore I been let down so many times. For the love of Gawd, Devs, marketing whoever, STOP STRINGING US ALONG WITH THE STAFF FIGHTING!!!! This has been one of the most anticipated powersets in the history of CoH and you guys cant deliver? If its a sound issue still you guys can fix it later. Just like how you go and alter sounds for crap that was perfectly fine after the fact. If this keeps up I am not even going to care about the powerset when it finally does come out because the enthusiasm will be gone.

Thank You Devs for Merits!!!!
Guys, give the devs a break. All they commited to was after issue 22. That's a pretty wide timeframe. We don't deserve everything whenever we want it. Stuff takes time.

The stuff posted here today is petty to me, and I have surplus of most of it just from Super Packs I had purchased with my stored stipends during their release. Most of those I will never use, save for the boosters and unslotters.
I know anything I say here won't bring Staff any faster, but I truly feel there could have been more direct communication on it's release and at the very least, a better reason given than not wanting to release too many sets at once to compete with each other. You assume no one would buy powerset A if powerset B was released simultaneously. The people who want to play both would plan to buy both, the people who only play on will still only buy one. Your revenue will still be there. Granted it might not be all at once (even the ones who buy both may buy one before the other, based on their preference).
I am not a MM person, but several of my friends have been begging for a true "Pet" summoning set. I am a melee enthusiast who would have gladly spent 800 points (or the money needed) to get Staff Melee.
I feel like one week, maybe 2 weeks, at most. Most people level so quick now anyway that I have seen dozens of lvl 50 Beast MMs with tricked out builds. I think it would have been ok.
Anywho, that's my 2 cents. I will wait until next week. In the meantime, I basically am wasting a week of subscribing because I really don't feel like playing anything else.

Kinetic melee
Time manipulation
Dual swords
Dual Pistols
willpower
Titan weapons
Street fighting
remember those?...
People like shinies....for about a month...then move on...
im guessing people already planning a all staff sg...let me give you an advance warning..it will last a month then die....
as Ood Sigma said....We will sing to you, Doctor. The universe will sing you to your sleep. This song is ending. But the story never ends.

It'll come though and then CoH will turn into City of Sticks.

You don't remember people requesting a "street fighting" type of martial arts instead of all the kicking of MA from day 1? Good grief, that's just about all I remember!

Y'all are so mad.
I ain't even mad.
I'm happy with character slots on sale. I need them.

This weeks offering is lame, but hey; it's not another use of the four-legged rig. To be honest i was expecting the panther stealth power this week. I didn't expect staff fighting til the anniversary, so next week is good for me.
p.s. Zwil thanx for the heads up on the release date
Does the XP Booster also boost prestige?
We don' need no stinkin' signatures!
Hard to say. I think there's a Pres booster item you can get from superpacks though. I have 3 to claim.

That's me, Almost Noone. I use the stealth IOs quite a bit, and prefer using Zephyr for KB protection, since I can put it in Fly's default slot and not use up a slot in a resist or defense power.|

I can't say I agree with the reasons given for delaying staff though. It was ok to release the two sonics and the two archery powers at once. I actually prefer powersets to come out in batches, so we don't see one powerset take over the server, like it did on Dual Pistol Weekend.

Pretty sure it doesn't. Hence, the separate Prestige Booster temp.
