Sure it does; One method actually requires you utilize your secondary; "As intended", so to speak. The second approach essentially ignores your secondary, and with the pet powers having been buffed to only having a recharge time of a few seconds, this is imminently attainable without significant sacrifice, especially since, IIRC, various pet IO sets already include recharge...

Except some builds already do this, but in general, +4/x8 should require 8 people. After all, that's what the whole "x8" part of that descriptor represents...

Can we instead get an accolade for arguing on the forums?

Welcome back! Now get out there and fight, (or commit), some virtual crimes!

There are some weapons already available via START. Are you looking to be able to take these powers then have them as part of that character's costume, or just to add more temporary weapon-based powers?

I'd be happy if they could just mark glowies on your minimap, provided you get close enough or one passes within your LoS...

It took me a while to actually delve into the Incarnate system, and while it is indeed cumbersome, once you get the hang of it, it isn't that bad. Do you have any interest in learning about it? Now that I understand it, I find it to be a great way to continue that character's advancement, plus you can basically swap-out the abilities as you desire, (out of combat, of course).

Didn't notice this one before. Great design!

For me, the hardest part is not revisiting the same color schemes that I find to "work" best in the CoH engine, but it can be difficult at times, (particularly if you want to use lighter colors without looking like some 2 year old's attempt at decorating Easter eggs)...

I know tankers get better defense/resist values from their armors, but does that extend to regeneration and/or healing? Maybe give them a variation of the old instant healing toggle power?

Funnily enough, IIRC, the larger Banished Pantheon Lore pet also does that "360 degree waist rotation" animation...

You sow that FUD! I'm sure it'll help things out, just like how eliminating multi-boxing will suddenly get those people to team with you... And for the record, I myself do not dual-box.

Forced teaming will not foster camaraderie, and CoH has always been a stand-out with how it is mostly solo-friendly...

FWIW, the issue seems to be, (from what little I know), that MMs were kind of kludged together to get them to work on whatever timetable the OG devs had to add the AT, so the issue isn't necessarily about whether you're using 4-legged models or humanoid ones; It's not that your or the OP's suggestion doesn't have merit - it's that it'd be a huge undertaking...

I interpret it as meaning that your points should be amplified...

I could see a place for a positional defense armor toggle, but maybe in another, new APP - like perhaps a "Ninja Mastery" APP that gives a shuriken throw, a couple katana attacks, danger sense, etc...

To add to this, I actually find it more offensive when someone tries to sugar-coat what they actually want to say, instead of just being upfront and honest...

In general, I agree, but the issue, IMHO, arises due to one person's tolerance for "shenanigans" vs that of others, and whether we should be lowering the age-appropriateness of discussion to their desired level, or whether a more mature one should be fostered...

It's funny how none of the discussion wants to place the onus on those starting new threads/topics to do any due diligence on their part; It's always about not liking someone else's response to said threads. How about this: If you don't want to face or just can't handle possible push-back or criticism of your ideas, don't post them online, and that goes double if you aren't prepared to defend your ideas besides "I want X"...

Intent does matter, and once there is an objective, independently verifiable way of determining what is mean spirited vs what is tongue-in-cheek or just banter, then a certain level of "thick skin" is to be expected from anyone conversing online. You are fully within your right to block/ignore someone whom you personally do not like or just don't want to hear from - empower yourself!

This would be a great way to achieve a non-tech asymmetrical look! Regarding the tights option - how would you hand that? Would you draw from the existing torso patterns and somehow clip out the section only for that 1 upper arm, or do you mean extending the pattern from the already selected torso option/pattern?

A few AI-enhanced versions of "RadActor":

Bless you!

Should... should we be concerned? Still, you raise good points!

There are some face options that don't exhibit this behavior, but those generally aren't skin, either. I could be misremembering, but doesn't this have to do with how colors on skin are treated as an addition of the color, instead of being applied over/on top of, the skin? Conjecture aside, yes, I'd like my chosen face color to actually reflect, y'know, the actual color I selected, so agreed!?
