Anecdotal testing thus far on Stone Armor changes; results amazing.

This is awesome! My sister got me in to the game back in 2004, it's a real great gateway in to comic book and super hero movie culture for the young adults too, with parents permission of course. Heck I even create characters with my wife sometimes. Good times!

Post modern impressionist are so hot right now

Pineapples don't grow in trees! And they take a year to mature in to what we consider edible. Think about that next time you make your demands for such toppings! 🤓

Policing the forums is the job of the mods, but what you're asking isn't unreasonable.

Wow this is next level! Great work 👏

Nice work! I am going to be running the Arena badges on Indomitable one of these days during the weekly sunday runs. I'll try to remember to @ you when we do them if you're interested.

I'm pretty sure I snagged the last one a few weeks ago.

No, this is a villains-side (and Vigilante) strike force, the first of its kind added by the Homecoming team.

Off the top of my head, I know that AB ignores multiple casts, meaning it doesn't stack if casted by the same user, but allows multiple stacks from others. The recharge portion of the buff isn't enhanceable or affected by other powers and the movement resistance isn't either. The regen and recovery aren't constrained by those conditions as far as I know though. I'm just not sure how by much it can be boosted. I'm speaking specifically about the Defender version of Empathy. Edit: Oh, but I meant to add, that I didn't know Power Boost doesn't affect regen/recov values. Has that always been the case?

Yeah that is a nice touch, agreed! As a caveat, I'm curious if the tech allows for implementation of a setting that lets the user specify the color as well?

Oh yeah! But Fortitude is neck and neck with Adrenaline Boost in my book. Fort comes back faster, so you can spread the love for the team - but that power boosted AB is soooo nice. I usually throw it on any other buffers on the team, or the high DPS folks if they are absent.

Yeah it is a pretty dramatic boost (using those types of powers) to the two heals; particularly Absorb Pain, where a single cast can heal for nearly 2,000 health points (while using those +special powers) and the damage to the caster doesn't scale, so players can use/abuse(?) that to their advantage.

To your second point, it is because the folks who make the content (the volunteer devs) wanted to. Whether there is a vocal minority or 5% of the playerbase (assumptions not backed up by any empirical evidence I have seen) is irrelevant. In this community, the players don't tell the devs what do to. They tell them what they would like. Sometimes the interest of the developers line up with the interests of the players and we get things that are popular (or unpopular). But their volunteer time is theirs to spend.

You're not wrong about the debuff resistance curve and the purple patch. There are work arounds though! Players can pop the Vanguard Medal accolade power and Power Boost to get more bang for their debuff. If a player is relying on their debuffs to work against +4, they will utilize those types of added +Special powers, among other methods to defeat the +4 AV types.

To add on to what Seraphim said, Water Blast and Dark Blast allow for lot of +Healing IO set bonuses and Ice Blast allow for a lot of +Range IO set bonuses, if you're trying to refine or maximize your healing powers.

Oh I dunno, I saw a trailer for it today.

Hero 1 was teased in another thread, rest in pizza. Pizza is the favorite food of arcade playing children. Street Fighter is an arcade game found in the 80s and 90s. X-Men had a sweet animated show on TV during that time. Time is often displayed on a watch face. The nature of the collage implies a circular logic, ergo a watch face and circles are two dimensional objects which time ignores. So ignore ripples in the water and you won't collapse?

Man that Jared Leto guy can really lose and gain weight like an art form. True character study from that dude. Morbius? Mobius? Morpheus? I'm getting names mixed up...

I just wanna say this is the best use of font color, size, and highlight I've seen on these forums. Well done!

I nominate @Diantane for the person who plays CoX in the most unusual way, based solely on everything they have said on these forums.

And we did it with without Incarnates, and we liked it! 😄

Hence the confusion

The part where it says
