That sounds a lot like "The Crucible" (Fort Trident is hero equivalent), it just needs more connections to access it. (Perhaps enlarge it to make it a staging area for SFs, Trials, & Raids) https://hcwiki.cityofheroes.dev/wiki/The_Crucible Turn both Fort Trident & The Crucible into major transportation hubs with connections to the Tunnel System, submarine (in Fort Trident only), Black Helicopter (in The Crucible only, slap a retractable roof hatch on the cave ceiling so people don't keep asking how the helicopter gets out of there) & Base portal access for both locations. Add crafting tables, Ouroboros Crystal & all the services you listed in your post. And open up both locations for Vigilantes & Rogues.

Perhaps some time in the future (when the schedule allows) the web developer for the site could implement the advice in this article. https://smallbusiness.chron.com/make-webpage-printable-47225.html This would be a low priority quality of life feature (that would be nice to have), no pressing need to put off other projects to do this right now.

@Lyris came up with the idea for 2 great powersets, Flechettes (for small hurled items (like Shurikens)) & Thrown Weapons (for large hurled items that ricochet & return to you (like Boomerang, Chakram, etc...)). https://forums.homecomingservers.com/topic/16340-shuriken-throw-set/?do=findComment&comment=212517

Thanks for the info.

Would the Steadfast Protection & Gladiator's Armor Procs cover fear as well? If they do, since the OP is using an electric armor tanker, just slot them in your auto (Grounded).

If you haven't seen Falcon & Winter Soldier don't click the spoiler

This can also be used as an area to test out new powers (ala Champions Online's Powerhouse or Marvel Heroes Shield Training Room) versus single target dummies, multiple dummies for crowd control powers. (with both stationary targets as well as moving targets, & both minion, LT, Boss, Elite Boss/AV Test Dummies) before leveling up. (Have it only offer power choices based on your Primary/Secondary) Marvel Heroes would give your TTK (Time to kill) from the moment you fired your first shot till defeat of the target. Another useful feature was being able to test your defense or resistance to different damage types by having special rooms that would zap you with different damage types.

Some threads on former ad contests https://forums.homecomingservers.com/topic/12808-new-billboards/ https://forums.homecomingservers.com/topic/20624-create-an-ad-competition-2006/

It would be cool to have upcoming server events, holiday events, costume contests, fun story arcs & TFs/SFs, & Dev sponsored AE arcs done up as cool & clever billboard ads. Perhaps it can also be used to remind players to try content in some of the underused zones.

Personally, I like Bitterfrost Bombardment, though @aethereal has a few awesome sounding names there.

I like the list of alternates @daveyfiacre & @gameboy1234 came up with using enemies that already exist in-game: https://forums.homecomingservers.com/topic/9713-mastermind-pet-clones-andor-female-minions/page/2/?tab=comments#comment-88013 https://forums.homecomingservers.com/topic/15343-mastermind-pet-customization/page/3/?tab=comments#comment-227532

Possible alternate choices for Granite Armor to add in the future: Devouring Earth crystalline models (Geode, Quartz, Sardonyx, Guardian) Minions of Igneous (Pumicites, Magmite Lords) Slag Golems (Slag Heap, Slag Pile, Slag Golem) Coralax (Coral Warder, Coral Sentinel) https://archive.paragonwiki.com/wiki/Devouring_Earth https://archive.paragonwiki.com/wiki/Minions_of_Igneous https://archive.paragonwiki.com/wiki/Slag_Golems https://archive.paragonwiki.com/wiki/Coralax

A stealth sniper with some control powers just like the PPD Ghosts.

It's a huge project but hopefully at some point we can have customization of all weapon, no weapon or the mix of both we currently have. And if we're talking pipe dreams, customization of that weapon (So you can choose between the type of weapon you want Sword, Club, Mallet, etc...) in the elemental style it's supposed to be (Fire, Ice, Stone).

A bump up to 0.3725 same as the other APP's & a increase to moderate energy damage (instead of minor), the -end secondary effect on the power is negligible.

I like it; a chance to proc Siphon speed (Foe -SPD, Self +Recharge, +SPD) like the Tsoo Ink Men power.

Then the best we could hope for would be to try to recreate the missions and the maps based on info from the wiki & what we remember about the mission. https://archive.paragonwiki.com/wiki/Winter_Event_2005#Operation_Holiday_Cheer_and_Operation_Scrooge Hero Mission contacts: https://archive.paragonwiki.com/wiki/Agent_Wallace https://archive.paragonwiki.com/wiki/Agent_Davis https://archive.paragonwiki.com/wiki/Agent_McClane The Hero mission used a custom version snow covered map of the helipad in mercy (Near where "The Next Big Thing Badge" is. (Small Map) Once you defeated the enemies outside, you then clicked on a door that took you into an Arachnos indoor map where you had to find & recover the presents. Villain Mission contacts: https://archive.paragonwiki.com/wiki/Operative_Karl https://archive.paragonwiki.com/wiki/Operative_Franco https://archive.paragonwiki.com/wiki/Operative_Gruber The Villain mission used a custom version snow covered map of Atlas Park, I remember running around under the globe & by where Ms. Liberty stands, defeating enemies. You went inside City Hall afterwards to steal the presents.

Stinky: 100 Missions set in a sewer map.

I didn't get a chance to see the Eagles Claw revamp before it got pulled, but please tell me if the guy you kicked plowed into everyone behind him like something out of the old Shaw Brothers 70s Kung Fu films because that would have been hilarious to see in this game.

It's jaw-dropping how beautiful the holiday themed base looks, outstanding work as always.
