Fun fact if anyone gives grief for being buffed: one can right click the icon on the buff bar and cancel it immediately. Sounds like you guys are having fun together. Enjoy the journey!

I do know how it works 🙂 I'm pointing out that they aren't striking through old lines and that (along with mentioning the pulse rate has been doubled twice), is poor formatting. Perhaps I should have been more obvious about that in my post to save you the trouble of the very lengthy explanation you offered.

What is going on with this part of the patch notes? Pulse rate doubled, doubled? Reduced KB2D then Increased KB2KD?

Well I don't follow comic's lore enough to really know the significance but the scene in which Deadpool is on his back, before it zooms in, there's a comic book cover lying on on the ground.

Hey I know it's not been brought up for discussion this far but any chance we could have NoFX/Alternate options applied all to buffs and toggles for the Epic / Ancillary Power Pools, similar to what their derived powers? It's a bit inconsistently applied, with some powers like Temporary Invulnerability having a NoFX option but Mind Over Body not. Likewise, Dark Embrace doesn't have the effects options you'd find in the Dark Armor set. I'm not sure how much extra work this is, but it'd be a nice QoL and frankly if we're trying to standardize/make uniform APPs, then this tucks neatly into that line of effort.

Surprisingly refreshing bell curve, there.

Saw this in my YouTube recommendations and honestly thought it was one of those lame stitched-together fan trailers.

It's a but tricky because some "masterminds" have entire armies at their disposal but that's because they're personally very powerful and sit at the top of that power structure. Others (as mentioned above) hedge more to what we see in game as a Mastermind for balance purposes. In the former category some might suggest Dr. Doom, Darkseid, and even our own beloved Lord Recluse. In the latter your Luthors, Jokers, and Professor X. --- Because of how the game has made stratified delineations between ATs for mechanical purposes, it's as difficult to apply the game's classifications to popular comics characters.

So, after 15 pages of bad feelings and gnashing of teeth, I'm here with some good news! (please don't downvote me D:) Harmonic Mind is fairly cracked. It has the same +Recovery bonus as Physical Perfection but dispenses with the superfluous 20% Regen to provide (on a Tanker) 12.96% End Discount (as per Combat Numbers window, I think it might say 15% in the Power Selection screen; that's a common discrepancy with End Discount). I took this on a Dark Armor Tanker at level 38 and it completely removed the Endurance pains I was having. Running a hojillion toggles (including Fly, lmao) while actually attacking was in the realm of doable. At 50, all blinged up with Very Rare sets (but no incarnates), I struggled to trash my own Endurance. This power is great.

And here I was merely using common hyperbole to speak about other servers (Rebirth specifically). It wasn't litteral there, either.

Fortunately that's not at all what I said. Let's be clear about that before we try to twist words for the sake of a forum victory. My point: -Null doesn't exist on other servers. -There are fewer Redsiders as a percentage of population on other servers than Homecoming (implied: Excel and Everlasting) -Therefore, evidence to the contrary, getting rid of Null or removing this feature on HC likely won't grow the Redside population, as the poster who brought it up suggested it would.

I am. The population size doesn't really matter when you look at percentages of population by alignment. Our own shards prove that. Yes, this is what they did. Literally everyone would roll blue. Do the Vigilante tip missions while leveling up, eventually flag Vigilante, and then that was it.

I'm not sure if you've played on other servers where he isn't available, but this has the opposite effect of cultivating a redside population there.

They can be found on Badger, a site operated by @KeyboardKitsune and linked from the Wiki's community portal. Just go to badge list, search for a badge, and copy the settitle from there.

Homecoming added a feature in the costume creator that lets you change the animations for your travel powers. Check your options under the "inherent" tab in CC. Make sure you don't have anything there listed as Ninja Run, Parkour, or Blitz.

An important element of writing (even patch notes) is to define acronyms the first time they are presented, so as to eliminate confusion. Case in point!

Really happy to see this change, a great QoL fix for those of use who don't want to be affected unnecessarily. You should list them! That would help better educate people on your stance and potentially convince others who are observing your post on the merits of the change back. Personally don't care about the changes to Frostwork either way but I am interested in useful discourse on the forums.

Impale from Spines is a chunky single target ranged attack with a mag 3 immob, runspeed slow, and -Fly. That stacks.

Agreed, it would be nice to have some mechanical (temp power) or prestige (badge) reward based on your choice, rather than it be pure RP flavor. Later content by the HC team such as Bobby Curtin's arc already does this so the precedence is there.

Barracuda sort of does, in that you never really figure out what her whole deal is but it's clear she's not meant to know. This plays out during Diviner Maros's arc in Sharkhead, as a B-Plot to disrupting the Leviathan/Blood Coral cult.

Monkey's Paw Curls: The copyright infringing character you try to jump is a pvp god, serves everyone who steps up.

100% my case. I never cared about the game City of Heroes. I saw it was being advertised and talked about, but the whole premise bored me and I was too exited about another MMO coming out related to one of my favorite strategy game IPs. But I bought City of Villains as soon as I saw a copy at the store.

I ended up skipping on my test build at 50 but to be honest I can see people taking it to fish for FF procs. I do think it's a little underpowered but at least it animates quickly which is usually my main reason for skipping mose cones; they usually take 2.67 to animates for mid to unfavorable results regarding damage, area coverage, or proc opportunities. Ironically, Control Sets seem to have the best cones for denting HP bars on Doms, at least when you consider procs.

Dark. Good coloring with greens can make it look like poison blasts. And Dark Blast is pretty nice on Supports. Alternatively, Water. Same rationale on theming but personally the hyrdromancy/water bending animations of the set make it B+ at best for style. Maybe A+ for effects though.
