biostem

I have a 50 Grav/Kin that I've been playing, and have all Incarnates up to about rank 3. My current APP is ice, using the single target blast, the armor, and ice storm. I'm looking for input on a second build for the character. I'm leaning toward Scorpion's PPP since it also has a defense toggle, and the ST blast does -RES and -DEF, plus another AoE blast if I wanted it. I've also been looking at the fire and psi APPs, but am not as sure on those - I tend to prefer defensive armor toggles on squishier characters. What are your thoughts? Thanks for reading!

That's cuz your fly's open... ... ... ... ... MADE YOU LOOK!

If you go with the fighting pool, that could give you a set of 5 melee attacks, (boxing, kick, cross punch, radiant strike, and incandescent strike), not to mention that white dwarf is primarily melee. With the implementation of toggle suppression, you wouldn't have to worry about toggling tough and/or weave back on when form-switching. I'd still take gleaming bolt and glinting eye, as they work in the forms as well, (1 per each form). Alternatively, if you went with a warshade, you'd get a stealth and phase power w/o having to dip into any power pools, and could easily dip into the flight pool to get fly and air superiority as a melee attack, if you didn't want to go into the fighting pool.

@Rudra is not a troll, from my experience...

I wonder how feasible it'd be to add a power that would teleport to an appropriate day job location, once you earn the badge...

It was added as a way to encourage a healthier lifestyle, by rewarding you for taking a break from the game every now and again. You may not be able to play for long stretches, but there are some people that do so to their own detriment. Patrol XP was one way to try encouraging people to log off for a bit... But, I mean, as an OPTION, sure, why not...

Can you dismiss the pets? You could always bind in /releasepets or something... Still, it would be nice if a summon replaced the old pets with the new ones.

I don't know if this is too close to the original Vampyri or not, but I did include an alternate mask for your consideration: vindictive vampyri2.costume vindictive vampyri3.costume

And I was pointing out how such a feature would likely get used.

Hmm... an account created 4 hours ago with only 4 posts... not suspicious at all!

I wonder if it would be too exploitative to simply give MMs a power to force-recall their minions to their location...

We renamed that planet back in 2021. It's now called "Urectum".

I would do something like: T1 - 2 footmen using broadswords and shields, 1 cleric with a mace, shield, and a heal-other power. T2 - 2 archers, possibly getting some nature or plant powers via an upgrade. T3 - A wizard with power bolt (as magic missiles), fireball, and maybe lightning storm later on. Alternatively, the T3 could be something like a berserker using titan weapons, and you yourself would be the wizard, gaining the energy, fire, and electrical attacks. Something like a "battle cry", which temporarily buffs your minions would be cool, as the special ability.

Roll an "easy" AT/powerset combo to level, get it to 50, then respec into what you "really" wanted to play - seems kind of like an exploit to me. Just roll what you really want, and if you can't stomach the sub-50 content, there's lots of ways to expedite that journey. Further, you can pretty much change your name, costume, and even body type at-will, so there's nothing there holding you back. Heck, you can even get enh unslotters and mail items to your own account if that's what you're after...

I think the quickest path to getting crossbows would be to adapt the small single-handed ones into pistol models, and the larger 2-handed ones into AR and/or beam rifle models.

Or it could be that many sites use the same security providers, such as Cloudflare, and they decided to implement tighter security based upon some other metric they're using...

When you say "gone right", do you mean that he still looks human, or that he was able to break free of the mental conditioning, etc? In short, does he look like a Council Vampyri under the mask?

Llamas are gonna drama.... 'tis the nature of online gaming.

It's not all that dissimilar to domination - there's the click power, but it's tied to the AT's special resource bar instead of end.

I like the idea, but I'd tweak it a little, (order of powers not hard-set): 1. Riot Shield - Uses the existing shield models. Provides a tiny amount of defense, but also reduces knockdown and repel effects. 2. Sidearm - A simple pistol shot. 3. Spear throw - Use the animation from the various Cimerora enemies. 4. Booster pack - The base power would be similar to superjump, with a click that grants flight. 5. Enhanced Vision - An auto power that boosts perception, resists tohit & perception debuffs, and provides a small amount of +acc.

We need to be able to set a "tether-distance" for our pets - if they get further than a certain value, they are literally dragged along to keep up with the MM or otherwise respawn.

I think there would have to be a lot of tweaking with regards to the damage & control values, and a lot of thought would have to be put into this class's special ability. For instance, I wonder if they could implement a special ability, similar to containment, but only for your pets - like maybe your pets deal increased damage and have an increased chance to hit vs controlled enemies, but you yourself did not. This could include pets from the secondary as well. As others pointed out, though, Illusion may be too powerful in this setup, so maybe just exclude it for the time being.

Update: Seems I'm able to access the forums via my regular browsers again. TY all!

I've had good results with those cheap to medium-quality all-metal risers/stands - they allow better airflow, don't vibrate as much, and inherently act as a large heat sink...

I have a water/bio sent at 50, and it is very powerful.
