Hyperstrike

Baron Zemo. Quoth Stan Lee: 'Nuff Said!

Why are we having problems herding? AND WHY DO ALL THE VILLAINS HAVE GIANT ICICLES SHOVED WHERE THE SUN DON'T SHINE? "Oh! We had a Dark/Dark tank too!."

Even Disney's pockets are NOT bottomless.

Hey! Come on man! This is some Grade-A AGGRO they're putting out here! Don't deprive us of it! We Tanks LIVE on this stuff! Being thankful for getting something previous back just isn't enough! They gotta crap in their cornflakes to feel "even".

And regardless, HC will be the one to catch hate for it. OH JOY!

It's basically a mathematical "meh" either way. The reason you see it in my builds is basically because they were mostly generated using an older version of Mids. As the build sharing function in newer versions IS ALL BROKE TO SHIIZZLE.

I solo'ed that witch! (not PRECISELY what was said...)

And probably never will be.

Actually it's not that bad. Remember that you can now stack Fly and Hover. Going for a "speed hover" that retains your Defense.

You want Inv/SS with flight? This is a build based on my Framework design. Has blank Foot Stomp and Fire Blast 6 slotted. Simply drop in Winter-Os. PBAOE (Superior Avalanche) and Ranged (Superior Winter's Bite) respectively. It's already Alpha'ed. But hasn't been set up with Accolades. The Hyperstrike Actual build is mainly set up the way you want it. Not the ABSOLUTE TOUGHEST thing available. But tough for 99.9% of content.

Don't kid yourself. NCSoft STILL had the leash. That six year period was an elaborate, EXPENSIVE game of "keep away".

Knowing what we know NOW, your 2.0 character(s) are simply on a different level than your originals. Even if your originals were awesomessauce with a side of deep fried aswesomesauce ice cream.

That data was scrubbed (for various reasons) as part of the INITIAL agreement with NCSoft.

Why would anyone do this? You can get into the costume creator and change EVERYTHING. Including gender.

Yeah. No.

No. Those are, unfortunately, gone.

On this, at least, we can agree. 😁

Basically this gives them legal standing to continue the game. Sure, the resources and technical expertise are 90% of it. But the permission from the rights-holder is what'll stop them from just getting summarily take offline on a random whim. As I'm not privy to the actual agreement, I can't tell if it's just an open ended permission, or if it's time limited "You have X years to do a thing". Fairly certain it's more of an open-ended "So long as you're not trying to grift, you can keep it going."

Very well. Just about reached the end of productive discussion anyhow. Wasn't looking forward to bouts of "NUH UH!"

No they cannot. There are data privacy and data protection laws involved. Read through COPPA, GDPR and CCPA. If you want to know why these would affect us, please ask the devs.

LOL

You're free to believe what you wish. Ask the people running HC. They will tell you the same thing.. There are multiple reasons (some logistical, some legal) why this data was purged. If the devs wish to answer the question, take it up with them.

That stuff was purged back in 2019 as a goodwill measure for NCSoft. To set the stage for HC's existence. It doesn't exist anymore. Sorry.
