Wow the team transport power sounds awesome!
Would be great to eventually get additional models for it like a Nemesis Mole machine.
Team teleport is cool, but what if I'm role playing in my civilian attire? I should be able to call a cab...
Who do I have to *&^% around here to get more Targeted AoE recipes added?
Arc Name: Tsoo In Love
Arc ID: 413575
Team teleport? Sigh...more stuff to make the game easier for people. You dont even have to travel to missions now. How about getting rod of the city entirely and just let us all stand in one room and bring the missions to us. Oh wait you have, its AE.
Rockshock (Druid Tanker), Medicat (Combat Medic), Dwarf From the North (Ice Mage), Rocket Gal (Energy Blaster), Graveborn (Undead Mastermind), Streeker (Punching Speedster), Op. Sidewinder (Recluse's pet Spider)

I swore I would not buy Street Justice until it went on sale. You do that TODAY, the day my points just happen to roll over, and I will have just enough to purchase the set. And I suppose it is just pure coincidence that the Nemesis invasion also happens to start TODAY? One big plot to get my points, I tell you!
With the jet packs coming with the Retro Sci-Fi pack being a must-purchase for me, I have to hope Water Blast is at least 2 months (stipend rollovers) away.
@Winter. Because I'm Winter. Period.
I am a blaster first, and an alt-oholic second.

Also a big HELL YEAH to the team transport power.
Wait... "Shared XP"... why would anyone pay to split the XP for 8 hours...? I need clarifications!

Hrm. Another "leak" perhaps?|

Either that, or someone got their files mixed up
And for what it's worth, it doesn't surprise me that Level Pacts are going on the Paragon Market. Why it wasn't left in for VIPs and made purchasable for non-VIP is beyond me. (Unless of course it was a tech issue.)

The 50% XP Booster, as I understand it, gives you a temporary power that you can cast on another player after activation. Hence the "Shared XP" icon. That being said, this is, in fact, an older icon, and I'll update it in a few moments, but I wanted to clear this up before speculation about Nemesis plots gets out of hand ;-).
Best,

Yes! Why make mundane tasks EASIER for people in a GAME? Especially a game about SUPERHEROES? Why shouldn't those SUPERHEROES have to walk or TAKE A TRAIN everywhere? What kind of sense does it make for them to get a transportation assist from the organization in the game THAT HAS SUPER-ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY AND WORKS WITH SUPERHEROES? For NOTHING MORE than a RIDE ACROSS TOWN?!? Why, this is just as bad as that other thing WHERE YOU GET TO CREATE YOUR OWN ADVENTURES IN A GAME YOU PRESUMABLY ENJOY!!! When oh when is this madness going to stop?!?!?!?!?|

Sorry, I just couldn't resist. Everyone's entitled to their own preferences regarding this game. Regarding Team Transport, mine fall in line with: IT'S ABOUT DAMN TIME -- and thank you, CoH!
Well, as nice as a team mission teleporter is, I'm gonna have to pass on it. I really need to start saving up my points for all the new powersets coming out over the next few months. On the other hand, that 50% xp booster that you can cast on other people seems pretty nice....until that person wants to use a double xp booster and can't until the 50% wears off. Which has happened to me....argh.
My circle is more like an egg. . .a handicapped egg. - A math professor
I'll echo some of the other sentiments...sale on powerset? Sold. Now I'll pick up Street Justice even though I still have plenty of other lowbie projects on the plate.
The team mission teleporter is very cool...something I'll look forward to purchasing in the future as thats something that can help everybody on the team especially with shard tfs.
