I wonder if what you've seen is someone using a combination of asymmetrical tights, one of the asymmetrical belt options, and the ability to select different boots for each foot, (some of which go up to the thigh and/or have knee options or other accessories that better sell the asymmetry).

Thanks for the info, but does that also mean that it only gains the benefit for the duration of BU, or as long as said entity exists. Thanks again!

Perhaps this has already been answered, but if I use a power like aim or buildup, then drop something like caltrops or some other power that persists for a while at a given location, does it retain the boosted damage/tohit for its entire duration, or only for the few seconds that said powers were in effect? Thanks!

I don't see why they couldn't function like your typical low-tier inspiration vendor. That being said, trying to retroactively go back and code that into all of them might be more trouble than it's worth. We already have the "inner inspiration" temp power you can get that kind of does this, and it works anywhere...

Or a pair of mutually exclusive toggles, one which increases damage while reducing defensive modifiers, and the other that does the reverse.

So it looks like it is a "Pool A" recipe, from below: https://homecoming.wiki/wiki/Recipe#Pool_A_(Enemy_Defeat) https://homecoming.wiki/wiki/Recipe_Drop_Pools

As I mentioned earlier - it's a matter of how you look at the power. I can't think of another ranged attack set that gets a power you toggle on and goes about attacking on its own without you having to do anything else. Maybe it needs its damage or end cost adjusted, but that's another story...

Nah man... have it where that's Rhoadie from an alternate universe where Tony is still alive... If Kang sees himself as a god, why not go all the way and bring in Morgan Freeman?

Whose names are you referring to? Other players? Your own? I'm pretty sure you can change font colors in the options menu pretty much on the fly...

There are some asymmetrical tights patterns, and you can get a different boot on each foot. Are you talking about how there is the option to have 1 cybernetic or crystalline arm? If so, that would be a cool option to have...

I imagine if such costume pieces were added, they'd have to fall under the "special" category and not permit that many gloves/boots/ or other such options,. Even then, I'm all for more costume options!

Well, doesn't "necro", (at least in this context), generally refer to something that died then was reanimated? I mean, if you like your pork undead, you do you...

It's really not some sort of catch-22; If you search the forums and find the answer you were looking for, no need to post anything. If you search and can't find it, start a new topic. In either case, if you searched and found nothing, why would you go about "necroing" an existing thread?

I mean, you're not wrong, but arguing on the internet is basically an Olympic event nowadays...

Ooh more hyperbole! No, maybe pick a reasonable cutoff, like 30-90 days or something, and if there's been no activity on a thread since then, start a new one.

I like hyperbole too, but I think you're a bit off-base. If a topic is worth discussing, it's worth creating a fresh thread for. People can always point back to the older threads if they are worth referencing.

Well, my initial response is because it's against the forum rules that you agree to abide by when signing up here. That being said, I think it has more to do with the info in the thread, whether you acknowledge it or not, *is* out of date in at least some way and/or the parties involved in it may very well no longer be present. Either way, I don't see why, if they really don't want threads to be necroed, that they simply don't allow anyone to respond to a thread that hasn't had a response in over, say, 3-6 months...

Couldn't they just have Dr. Aeon or someone fake some credentials, hack into Portal Corp's systems, then send you to the same place, only with a portal in Nerva or Grandville? Basically, turning the Shadow Shard into a co-op zone.

I think it's a matter of how you look at it; I basically treat it like a ranged damage aura. It doesn't replace a full-fledged attack, but for a defender or corruptor, that may need to focus on buffing/debuffing/healing, it's a nice way to keep some dps going...

What if you needed to contact the ship to gain a temporary buff/debuff that allowed you to actually harm the spectral pirates or something - like you need to be "slimed" in order to interact with other such ghostly apparitions...

Still working within a similar theme as my other recent characters, I present "Peerlass":

Looks like "Lorem Ipsum" text IMO...

I'd love to see your take on a Hercules mech or a Fake Nemesis! Oooh! I bet the Nemesis Jaegers would turn out really cute!

A few thoughts: Many melee-AT APPs add control powers, like a single target hold or a cone/AoE immobilize. Take suppressive fire from dual pistols, drop the damage down to single hold levels, and give it a hold effect, (treat it like the cryo ammo version if that's simpler). Take empty clips and call it something like "pin-down" and turn it into a cone immobilize, with the damage and recharge adjusted accordingly. Add a targeting drone/focused accuracy-like power, (maybe call it sight-in or something appropriate). You can then add bullet rain for the AoE damage power, and hail of bullets as the capstone power, (maybe lower the damage, keep the +def when using standard ammo, and perhaps even add a -res effect).

I wonder if you could have a stationary pet that both emitted a taunt aura/effect AND applied an effect like hurricane or arctic fog, (with the specific effects adjusted for balance and such, of course).
