May has been even weaker than April when it comes to Paragon Market.
Where are Superpacks #2? Retro Sci-fi? New powersets?
Come on Paragon you can do better.
At least release I23 already...
My guess is that Nemesis forces are interfering. Maybe after we have pushed-him back enough.
Miss Arc #147491: Rise of Bedlam
AKA Iron Smoke @Champion Server
I feel it's necessary to point out that it took almost 15 minutes for the teeth-gnashing to begin. I am very disappointed. Come on, people -- you're better than that! I expect garment-rending immediately or what's even the point of having this discussion?
As to the featured items, I either have them or don't want them. Can't wait to see what comes out next week. Thanks, Paragon Studios!
Another barren week, means I save points until something good finally raises its head!

I'm not changing this signature until I'm proclaimed 'King of the World'.
Yawn
NCSOFT may take away our servers and beloved dev team, but they can't break our spirit and community. with all your power, NCSOFT, your victory will be bitter-sweet. I, personally will be there to laugh at you when you face-plant into the ground.

Is there any word on beefing up the abysmal staff model selection? Specifically vanguard style staffs, wizard staffs, and maybe even elemental versions for those of us who want to conjure magic weapons.
Edit: just realized there is an actual thread devoted to this. My apologies.

Don't expect Super packs 2 until late june at the earliest.
SSA 2.1 and retro sci fi are due in the may/june timeframe, however.
Orc&Pie No.53230 There is an orc, and somehow, he got a pie. And you are hungry.

Negaduck: I see you found the crumb. I knew you'd never notice the huge flag.
Another let down dang, guess I'll hold onto my money... Lol its kinda funny that I'm actually complaining about not giving you my money.
Retro sci-fi please. Can't wait!
Friends don't let friends buy an ncsoft controlled project.
Another week of Paragon working on making sure all the truly new stuff is actually done and ready instead of pushing it out the door unfinished. I'd rather see a few weeks of "new but not really new" stuff like this than another "we've got a deadline to meet -- get it on the market NOW!" debacle like what happened with the Imperial Dynasty set.
That said, nothing for me this week. Still eagerly awaiting the Retro Sci-Fi pack!
Also, are Super Packs 2 even on Beta yet?
FUN FACT: That burst of light when you level up is actually the effectiveness escaping from your enhancements all at once.
These are some really disappointing anniversary sales. Sure they weren't advertised as such, but after looking up last year's deals, these are...pretty bad. Maybe the real sale will be the anniversary of Freedom's launch?

UGH! I23 Better be released NEXT Tuesday!
Yomokatsu Shinsengumi Yonbantai Kumichou
Seriously Guys! You could've at least put Beast Mastery at a discounted price... That would've at least made this weeks featured list somewhat more worthy.
Just Sayin... -_-

think I'll snag a stack of those XP boosters...

Be realistic people. If you need a gauge for how long stuff takes to develop, let's look at how long it has been since the initial concept drawings for the Retro Sci-Fi costume were presented. And it appears that Dink has been working pretty steadily on that since. That's one costume set. Granted, it is a bit more complicated than others, but still: one (1) costume set. I think they deserve a little slack for not releasing a costume set, story arc, or power set every week.
At the very least, do as I do: look at it as an opportunity to save your money.
@Winter. Because I'm Winter. Period.
I am a blaster first, and an alt-oholic second.

yeah i guess...
but even something like the week we got the two firefighter helmets would have been a better week, just cuz it's something NEW new, even if small. i'm sure they are sitting on some cool things like that, that can be one-hit-wonders of the week.
but the cash flow is fine right now and theyre saving some things til they need moneys, and finishing polishing the really cool stuff.
this week is just bleh. but i sure hope that when the three announced powersets are actually announced and then released, that month will be wicked awesome with the market, and complimentary items being up for sale or discounted prices.
I just keep hoping for costume slots to go on sale again.

The plastic tips at the end of shoelaces are called aglets. Their true purpose is sinister.

Put power sets on sale like you did with Beam Rifle - and watch the purchases ramp up.
My new Youtube Channel with CoH info
You might know me as FlintEastwood now on Freedom
Now if they could just give us a time frame for Water Blast as well, I'd be good. >_> *cough*I REALLY want Water Blast NAO.*cough*
Shadowblaze - Lvl 50 Dark/Thermal Cor, Alexander Kalsoa - Lvl 50 BS/Regen Scrapper, and a whole bunch of other Alts. Global is @Shadowblaze.
Well this sucks.
Specially the "No Super packs #2 till August"
I mean, then what? More feline travel powers, or pets maybe?
Its not like I want to spend money, is the fact I got around 3000 PP and I cant find something worthy to spend them.
Really sad and dissapointing.
I hope we can have Water blast soon enough. Its like they are holding good stuff and for no good reason. Lets think the good stuff is not ready so they are releasing IOs and other stuff.
