See, that's the nice thing about proliferated powers. If someone wants a Stone Stalker, it fits the concept they have or whatever? They can make it. On the flip side, if you don't like it? You don't have to make it. More options are good. You're free to skip the ones you don't like.

Nope. Think it was in an AMA. The trees were planned (very roughly) to be expanded beyond those ten. Dealing with Prometheus's sort, then whatever's above that, if I'm recalling it properly. Though, I don't *think* any beyond the next tier were given anything more than names, if that. (Plus there's plenty of content that's been referenced and completely dropped. Blood of the Black Stream is probably the most referenced, with Gadzul Oil mentioned in Mr. Bocor's arc and I believe one other - with graphical easter eggs as well, if you look at the partially sunk tanker in Oakes - the Eye of Horus the spill forms is part of it.)

Or completely forget that horrid Battalion storyline, which was just there to keep people paying VIP so they had access to the Incarnate trees they were going to expand ad infinitum.

VEATs always seemed a bit rushed to me, honestly. Just in little things here or there, like some of the VEAT arcs.

... I read "smut" and I think "tongue in cheek adult fanfic." :) (It was a silly time with friends pre-COH.) ANd ... yeah, while there's a *little* of this in game now (Cheetah and "sort of" tiger on skirts, I think a shield... isn't there an animal bone mace?) seeing more of it that goes more in that direction would be nice. (Granted, I say that for most "more costume bits pls" options.)

This wouldn't be "challenge," this would be "annoyance." Like Malta's 2 hour stun grenades.

Plus they said creating those few animations/powers for Demons was as much work as making an entire set. So...

... until they disappeared. :) It was a regular haunt (no pun intended... well, maybe a little pun intended) of one of my mains on live. Along with original DA, Croatoa when we got to see it in beta. Both for the zone itself, which was quite different from anything else in game, but for seeing "Ooh, those mobs are fighting... and actually *damaging* each other!" for the first time, as opposed to the shadowboxing they were doing before. Special mention (as it's not a "zone") to the underground caverns in the Eden trial. They almost look painted. Nothing else like them in the game. (And then there's the giant bones...)

While we're at it, being able to have additional - and basic - file management (such as ... understanding folders in the directory and being able to navigate to them, move things, etc.) would be nice.

https://fbsa.homecoming.wiki/wiki/Main_Page is up and running, yes.

"Does it look fun?" Yes - taken No - skipped. I don't honestly care about set bonuses, capping, perma-whatever, etc. though. Unneeded and generally annoying. It's rare that I have any sort of "chain" in mind (the only exception I can think of being "huntsman" builds - WAWG, venom, then AOEs, and I want them handy and cycling.) The closest I come to a "mule" is looking for powers that don't really need slotting and maybe putting them off 'til the mid-30s or later when I'll just want slots in existing powers. (Typically aim/buildup type powers, Nebulous Form, etc.)

I'm seeing this as needing some nested menus, but that's not a big deal: "Tell me about slotting" - What are enhancements - What do colors/borders mean - What are IOs --Recipes and crafting --Categories --Set bonuses --"Rule of 5" (also mentioned under set bonuses, but someone may want to look here specifically if they've heard it mentioned.) "Tell me how to get powers" - Primary and secondary sets - Pools - APPS/Epics and Patron pools - Training and respecs .... and so forth. Make it a community effort, because there's a lot of potential information to drop here.

Everlasting, claimed items yesterday and today without issue. Haven't opened any packs, though, that I can think of. I'd assume this would affect winter packs as well?

The Sands of Mu temp power is prety much my go-to for this, too. Not affected by the crash at all. Edit: Of everything, I wouldn't mind damage in hand clap - even minor - for the sake of a little earlier AOE. *shrug* There are... *checks* two, apparently, procs that might give some, and that's it.

Note the timestamps. This was going on from the point he was spawned, before anyone engaged him, through the team building process and through the fight. Just rapid-fire through all of his lines with a continual stream of dialog above his head. Not sure if it's specific to just this one instance of the spawn or if it's been ongoing.

Hasn't SEGS been talked about since ... live? I know I've heard it for quite a while. Sort of like "for the full experience, play it on ReactOS" (which has also been plodding along forever.)

*clicks on advisor.* *waits* *waits* *waits* Advisor: "Huh. OK then."

Yeah, I'd have to agree. As a source for general information that's not given elsewhere (ok, or given but that people seem to ignore...) from the very basic "What are enhancements" and "What do these colors mean" on up, but "evaluating a build" ... eh. (For instance, "Multi slotting brawl" is not common, sure, but I've seen people deliberately do it for the heck of it, usually piling procs on.) Now, some Q&A type things, like "I'm having endurance problems, what can I do" that can give some common building or slotting strategies? Sure. But to stand there and have something scan your build and judge it? Nah.

Issue 5 was released in 2005 and introduced Croatoa. I'm not aware of any server that's based on something that old. (And no, even hiding zones, all of red and gold side, etc. wouldn't be "i5.")

Feature request: Let me change / scale the font size in the mod list/descriptions. Thing's fine on my main PC - 32" screen after all - but I hopped in COH on my laptop (15" screen,) realized I didn't have vidiotmaps installed there, grabbed COH Modder and... dang, can't read a thing (and ctrl-scroll doesn't affect the size.)

If I want to play the game, I'm in the game. I then look for other people who are also in the game and interested in playing the same thing, through either friend/global friend lists, SG rosters or LFG (or just screaming in broadcast.) No "Sure, I'll play, I'm 15 minutes away at the store though." Or suddenly finding the game won't launch or whatever. Why the *heck* would I use another program? The uses I have for discord are: - Supplemental RP - General BS. - Teaming wise? Typically just "Hey, not going to be on next week" to give the SG a heads up so they know what's going on. The closest I come to "teaming" information is something like using it on my phone to mention the power or internet in my home went out if a friend or my SG mates are expecting me.

Not that I recall.

All the time playing since I3, I honestly never was the target of any of that on my Khelds. As for the OP - yeah, I'd love to have those back.

Yeah, it's just not being able to make *other* characters the set's missing on in there. :)

Back in the early days of PVP, I had people *hate* my energy/energy brute. They couldn't see her, couldn't teleport her, and *every* attack had a stun slotted in it that would take it. Then we had things like billion-inf IO builds and i13 come in. *shrug* But it was fun, and that's where I go to when thinking of stuns.
