No Thunderstrike? Come on devs, you're trying to sell SBEs to all the new Water Blast characters and you skip what is probably one of the most popular Ranged Damage sets 
.
No Rogues and vigilantes pack ?
IRRC, GoRo pack was stated to be released at end of July early Aug, and not to get our hopes up by Zwill.
And Ya, no Thunderstrike? Wow, just... wow...
Miss Arc #147491: Rise of Bedlam
AKA Iron Smoke @Champion Server
Ooh, i get to save my points another week. Mostly because i've owned all the featured costume pieces since they were first available and i generally don't bother with SBEs.
Dr. Todt's theme.
i make stuff...

And yet for a lot of ranged damage characters it's a better option than most of the ones that are on sale.

Doesn't really matter how good they are for your performance, just their rarity in-game. They unfortunately don't put Uncommon enhancements up for sale in the Paragon Market very often. |

I'm always surprised when people compare Thunderstrike to Decimation.
Just speaking personally, I find Recharge Bonuses a lot harder to find than Ranged/Energy/Neg Energy defense.
If Decimation went up to 50, I don't think I'd ever slot another enhancement set in my ranged attacks at all, except in very rare circumstances where I need to boost up my ranged defense and can't find other sets to do the job.
Dame Silverwing (50 Kat/SR Scrapper) Virtue
Professor Bikini (50 Bots/Dark MM) Virtue
Dame Silver Fury (41 Peacebringer) Virtue
Operative Velvet (50 Fortunata) Virtue
Petal Dancer (35 Plant/Kin Contoller) Virtue
Tanegashima (Rapidly levelling DP/Ice Blaster) Virtue
(and more)

Like Voodoo Girl pointed out, it's more a reference to the Dark Knight Rises than them wanting to put out Halloween parts.

hurrah, bat aura!
That looks like my only pickup this week...
The Nethergoat Archive: all my memories, all my characters, all my thoughts on CoH...eventually.
My City Was Gone
i wish they at least gave a screenie of what the costupe pieces are, even if it's a stock image from when it was originally released. might up their sales. i have all the pieces, but i dont like buying things i cant see and that has prevented me from buying things before.
:shrug: mediocre weeks help me save for powerset weeks ^_^ but not everything here is for naught... but most freebs dont buy points cuz they'd might as well sub, and most subs have most of this already XD so i dont see it as great either way.
stick things we would spend saved points on: halloween piranha pieces for example. this week the fire helmet is along that vein though so that was a good decision

Not quite as convenient, but effective nonetheless.

I've always thought that it was once every month, not once every 30 days. So there's two more Tuesdays left before they're late. At least as I've understood it.

But 9/10 Weeks are lame or not really new so, so wait for the next 1/10 - the new powerset.
Another week of Paragon not biting off more than they can chew and not pushing something out the door before it's finished just to meet an arbitrary, self-imposed deadline.
Watch me seethe with anger. Here I go. I'm seething. Rrraaarrrr.
(Nothing for me this week, but that just means I can afford more super packs when the new ones do eventually go live.)
FUN FACT: That burst of light when you level up is actually the effectiveness escaping from your enhancements all at once.

Just to be clear, you DO recall that they just released a new power set--Water Blast--last week, right?
