This. The saving grace of the new coop zone may be that it's in a relatively barren level range that's needed some leurve for a long time - but I don't hold my breath.

Costume pieces define my excitement level for issues, and this one I think delivers IMO!

If you think I23 is "light", then you must have thought that I22 was also "light", as they're both about the same size

No Issue 22 was more comprehensive in content while Issue 23 has more of a focus.

They both have a new zone with 5-6 story arcs, and a new Trial.

Ignoring anyone is a mistake. You might miss something viral to your cause.

But i22 also had a number of free power sets which came with it (well 2 new ones and one rejigged one). New powersets inject a lot of new characters into the game (even Proliferated ones do, people love making new combos).

Also : When was the Drowning in Blood trial introduced? (I was away so I've no idea if it was i22, or earlier)

I believe you are correct.

Death from Below was introduced in i21.

I am pleased that they are doing Night Ward. Not because I liked First Ward (I liked the survivor part at the beginning and disliked the ghost part of the second half), but because I am sick and tired of half done story arcs. Watch The Cape and they cancel it after a few episodes.

I would hate to play CoX and do SSA episode 1-3 and then find they had cancelled the rest due to not enough people playing them. If you cannot trust they are going to finish the story, it kills interest in trying it out.

So I will play Night Ward. Unless it is more heroic, more fun, and more upbeat than First Ward (which seems unlikely) I will only play it once.

But I will be glad that First Ward is not just left with a story half told

It has one of the most upbeat and heroic events in recent CoH history

1. Are we getting staff fighting with issue23?
Before that even
2. When will we ever get BACK SWORDS, BACK GUNS, BACK WEAPONS, ETC..!?
When we get hippity hoppity Flying Unicorns
3 Will we be able to choose an all female mastermind set? Amazonians, Lady thugs, Female Assassins, Mecha Woman, etc..
No
4. Can we please have the option to purchase the Chimoran Oracle Costume set. That is by far the most attractive costume in the game for female characters, and many of us could make a wicked but sexy female villain that would give ghost widow a run for her money!
NO
Okay my question if end of Praetorian arc what happened to Genesis,Mind, and Omega?


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.
