Given that the game already permits tops like eden, where it's basically just a thin strip of color over the breast, I wonder if a top akin to pasties would be permissible, (omitting any specific nipple detail, of course).

I suggest taking an excerpt of the log pertaining to healing, particularly if there are other healing effects going off periodically, (like the panacea chance for hp/end), and submitting it to the bug section, if that is in fact the case...

They'd probably have to add alternate ear options instead. Likely would have to be done has glove options. Would probably have to be alternate face options, to line up with the mouth correctly. This would similarly have to be glove options, in all likelihood. There's at least 1 chest option for males/huge that already has this. I can't imagine that they'd add this for females, though...

Of all the armor sets that need improving, I'd argue that Willpower is way toward the bottom. That being said, the lion's share of the S/L resistance comes from mind over body, not heightened senses...

Regeneration is, for all intents and purposes, and unlike most other armor sets, reactive instead of proactive. Sure, you could hit dull pain in anticipation of taking a big hit, but most of the set's schtick is to take the damage head-on then heal back up afterward. This is contrary to most players' expectations, IMO. It's a good set where you have other forms of mitigation, via your attack set, pool powers, or other sources. I think that if you look at it from this perspective, you'll have a better outcome...

I almost always take tactics instead - it costs less, is available earlier, and benefits my teammates as well as myself.

I have many level 50 sentinels - they're probably my favorite AT to play. I've really come to love dual pistols due to the versatility of swap ammo, and Ninjitsu offers a wide variety of tools to keep you in the fight. I similarly like fire mastery for its varied selection of tools. That being said, it is neither the most powerful nor the tankiest combination I've played, but it has a little bit of everything and a tool for just about any situation.

What would be really awesome is if the more obvious costume options could be given the "combat aura" treatment, only they appear or disappear only when a travel power is in use. The rocket boots seem to have the ability to detect whether you are jumping or flying, so the mechanic already exists, at least in some form, and wings only flap or animate in a similar fashion...

Not knocking the suggestion, but that's closer to some of the robe options we have.

At least up the amount of absorb that's granted when it procs...

How do you feel about... balls with eyes? ...Asking for Rularuu... 🤫

What would be interesting would be to diverge from the typical build stacks/consume stacks mechanic and instead have them build up up automatically, then have all attacks consume said stacks. So basically, you "cool off" to build up stacks in between fights, (perhaps allowing for even more stacks to accumulate), then using them up as you fight. Concentration could instead replenish the stacks, and perhaps have a flat amount of added damage and tohit based upon said stacks, instead of the typical build-up effect...

Since the tinting on the spectrum pieces seems kind of wonky, (when you factor in how the primary and secondary colors produce the end result), I'd love to have one of the colors "locked', so it shows the actual color selected AND opens up the ability to apply patterns to it.

There are a few mace attacks, but I get your point.

If you go mace mastery, you can improve his defense via scorpion shield.

That's why I suggested going with a Sentinel. Take Mace Mastery if you want to give him a bit of extra gear to utilize, as well as a "disposable" robot/cannon fodder. Having gotten several sentinels to 50 + incarnates, I can vouch for them being extremely durable once you also factor in set bonuses, and Luthor can go toe-to-toe with Superman while in his armor, at least for short stints...

Ever get the feeling that you're watching your life from just over your own shoulder? Hey, how'd that status bar get there??? o.O

When I'm leading one of those PI radio teams, I tend to drop an Ouro portal if I need to head off, so I don;t leave any lower-level players stranded mid-zone.

Well, if you wanted to go with his power armor incarnation, something like an energy blast (tinted green)/invulnerability sentinel could work. He also has private security forces, so a mercs/traps MM could also work.

Oh no doubt. I wonder if the generic leadership "fist to chest" animation could work.

Ninjitsu also has a few varieties of "press both hands together" if you wanted something more mystical, but not as hand-wavy as sorcery's.

The generic "touch random computer on your forearm" animation would be cool if you wanted a more tech-oriented animation.

But are we going for "like-minded people" or the widest reach and to reduce clutter in the general LFG chat? If it's the former, then knock yourself out. If it's the latter, then you're going to need some sort of formal implementation/declaration/enforcement.

I want to preface this topic by saying I do not run farms for other people. That being said, what I tend to do is run PI Council Radio mission teams that are open to anyone. I also tend to drop 50+ SOs on low level characters in AP to sell or save, (I tend not to have large amounts of inf). Any other things I can do on a casual basis to help others level up a bit? What things do you folks like to do with your 50s when you aren't suffering a bought of alt-itis? Thanks for your input!

The flash-step animation from burst of speed is also pretty cool.
