Whoo!! Bring on my new Defender Nature/Sonic - Call of Nature.
But not until around 9pm cos I'm stuck at work 
@SkullFester
I'm not changing this signature until I'm proclaimed 'King of the World'.
Very nice. I'll definitely be grabbing this set -- in a few weeks, once the initial glut of Nature Affinitizers dies down. Instead, right now seems like a good time to level a new tank or brute or blaster. Lots of support around.
Also, a new SSA on the same day as a powerset? Score!
Also also, it seems like the other sale items really got some thought and consideration this week. If I didn't already have the leaves and Autumn auras, I'd be seriously considering not waiting to grab Nature Affinity and picking up the bundle instead. I like the initiative there -- keep that kind of thing up!
FUN FACT: That burst of light when you level up is actually the effectiveness escaping from your enhancements all at once.
I like that this is bundled as a theme; that's a neat feature (although I think I might have that path or aura; not sure). Is the cape bundled as well, or just the aura and path as mentioned. If the cape is in there too, that would be great!

If I hadn't already added all that other stuff to my CoH arsenal I'd definitely be dropping the extra points for the bundle.

The individual pieces of the enhancement sets on sale are not marked down. This is inconsistent with previous sales - is this an oversight or a new policy?

Heh, if I'd actually paid attention, I would have gotten the pack instead of buying all three separately. oops!

Still hate the visit Winscott mission- make it dropable, have it give actual exp or remove it altogether. PS- Down knows who you are.

This is a slap in the face!

They stopped doing that a while ago. Guess too many people were buying the procs and nothing else.

The City of Heroes Community is a special one and I will always look fondly on my times arguing, discussing and playing with you all. Thanks and thanks to the developers for a special experience.

I stopped buying SBEs entirely.
Wait. I think that's the opposite of "worked".

Is the cape not included in the Nature Affinity bundle?
Quote:
It seems not. The bundle appears to be the powerset, the "standard" aura and the travel aura.

Freitag, Paragon might consider adding the Leprechaun pet to this week's items. A good number of the new Nature Affinity characters I've seen running around today have been Celtic-themed. (I know I'd buy a Leprechaun for each of my two accounts.
)
It would be really nice if the misisons in Pandora's Box could be completed.
In the Signature Story Arc 2: Episode #3 i've defeat Captain mako three times and all three missions seemed identical.
Could be a bug?

Sounds like they accomplished their goal.
