That's a no for me for a number of reasons. Aesthetics shouldn't drive balance decisions. Animation times across all powers are static and can't be influenced based on other powers or effects in the game. It would change how the entire game works if one power could alter all other powers dramatically.

You know, sometimes I just can't with this poster. They say they're leaving, they say other players are leaving, they say they know how to play every Archetype and they know how to do everything in game the right way (their way). And they won't even acknowledge other players could possibly want to do something else other what they want to do in game. The population is fine. It's healthy and resilient. I think enough players just don't want to team with @Diantane at this point. Edit: Screenshot about an hour after Diantane's rant.

Right? What even is tertiary D-List? Is that like when a kid performs at their local school play? Critics making these movies sound like they're getting a forced lobotomy.

No toxicity that I'm aware of. If it exists, I guess the ignore function is working and I don't notice it. In fact, ignore and blocking even here on the forums does wonders to remove any opportunities for toxicity to arise. Be excellent to each other!

Yeah, I thought the same thing for Captain America: BNW. Felt like that was already a story line... Same - team up movies have a special place in my movie watching preferences.

A couple of useful commands to add to any Giant Monster hunting custom window tabs are found in my guide if anyone is interested.

Nothing. The game continues to operate regardless of any players own individual donations. The lights stay on. If you're looking to make an impact that benefits the community besides a monetary donation, you can also donate your time by volunteering as a GM, Developer, or by helping with testing new updates.

Captain America: Brave New World The Thunderbolts* Thoughts?

Every time I read articles like this I think of how Blockbuster turned down buying Netflix many years ago. Blockbuster missed out and closed down (bankruptcy?) while Netflix went on to become a big company. I see Marvel and D.C. getting billions of U.S. Dollars for the media franchise they built over the last twenty years and think how a superhero game with an established player base could have enjoyed continued relevance and financial success even off said coat-tails. That being said, I am much more satisfied with the experience Homecoming has created with this community and game than I was during the old subscription and microtransaction days. Edit: My favorite line of the article and one I can relate to and appreciate the most is when @Widower said: "It helped that, in spite of never having met before, everyone on the team got on very well together and also was very willing to obliterate their sleep schedules.” Based on my experience, the initial rush of support and passion for projects that a lot of people enjoy is abundant, but sustaining something like this for over five years and gaining legitimacy - that is incredible. Sometimes I find myself thinking about how much time has passed since I started playing on Homecoming. It feels like a big chunk of my life, already five years on. But I only play (and sometimes test!), I don't have to responsibilities like managing server infrastructure or donations or moderating the community. How folks can find the time to do all that and still have fun in this game is beyond my comprehension, but not beyond my appreciation and enduring thanks! Edit 2: High praise in another part of the article: "Lee cited the Homecoming team’s addition of asymmetrical costumes, a community ask the Paragon team had never been able to figure out how to deliver."

The same meta that has existed since Issue 13. Whichever Archetype can output the most damage in the shortest amount of time. Everyone else contributes to making that output more efficient.

Here's the guide I wrote about defeating all the Giant Monsters that spawn in zones, with the exception of the holiday events Giant Monsters. Hope that helps you understand Giant Monster spawn mechanics.

Right in to orbit!

Always clear spawns.

My Illusion Dominator was made specifically for a Yin TF the Theme Team ran a while back. I hadn't played it since, so it's been Level 28 for a while too.

Really good job!

If anyone's seeing names in the Theme Team Global Channel that don't look familiar, that's my bad! I was trying to add someone but instead I invited my entire global friend list. What a silly button to have next to inviting someone. That being said, please feel free to remove anyone that isn't supposed to be a member and feel free to remove my permissions 😅

Submit a support ticket and move on.

Doesn't Scourge.

Blast! It looks like my record (and the only record for many months) for Corruptor was beaten. Well done!

Seems like it was a good decision after all. Congrats to the folks who finally got their namesakes and other sought after names. I haven't had any names I've wanted, so I'm not too interested.

Hey you're right! The post from the patch notes about the Labyrinth said that Windfall stacks with the increased xp and inf rewards from the zone, so it looks like even the dev team thought Windfall boosts inf. Fight For Rewards & Gain Level Shifts! Experience & Influence earned in the zone increased by 25% This stacks with other power such as Experience Boosters or Windfall. There were a few bug reports a while back about this, based on my search. Looks like it made the description change!

Where do the Kheldian vanity pets fit in to lore I wonder. Are they one of those cool things that don't affect the story or did any kind of canon/lore make their way in to maybe the descriptions of them?

WOW! Nice work! The Prestige costumes look like Mt. Everest compared to the mole hill that was Vanity pets to me at least. I've snagged a few just to get in to the hang of spending Prismatics, but it looks like I'll be after them for a good bit of time (good thing!).

Yeah, Windfall doesn't boost XP - I use it to even out the difference between inf and XP, since most of the boosts players can get in game only go only to XP. Edit: Oh, and yes that looks right for the Lab increase. Experience & Influence earned in the zone increased by 25%
