I don't think that will work. He should try exiting Supergroup mode instead.

Exit Supergroup mode.

Illusion doesn't need -Perception or -ToHit for solo play. Superior Invisibility doesn't suppress unless you interact with an objective, and it doesn't matter if PA is hit or not. It's a far more applicable power for defenders/corruptors/masterminds, most controllers can skip it or mule it. I'd respec out of it on my Ill/TA and Grav/TA, but 6.25% +Recharge at 4 slots is reason enough to keep it.

No. We're playing Champions. The alpha iteration of City of Heroes was based entirely on the Champions Hero system. The design goal was to bring the tabletop RPG into the digital age. Cryptic couldn't acquire the license, though, so they created their own IP, but moved forward with the same design goal. They made only the necessary changes to make the game playable (archetypes) and avoid an IP infringement lawsuit.

1-49, use the 20% Empowerment Station buff, Offensive Amplifier and Cross Punch with the Boxing and Kick synergies (one target = 10%). That's 45% on a silver platter. If you can't pull 105% out of set bonuses, ask for help. 50+, purples and Superior ATO bonuses replace the buffs. Also note that I didn't slot Light Form to the ED cap for Recharge Reduction. A few more % there is a few less % global. None of that is factoring for the Force Feedback proc. Or Ageless. I never use those. The only variable +Recharge buff on my build is Cross Punch (which, as noted, is only factored for one target in my total). 151.25% isn't even the maximum possible on my peacebringer. I spent several powers and 6 slots on Psi and Slow Resistances. If I wanted to go for max +Recharge, I could drop those and push it up to 160% with minimal effort, and as high as 200% if I used the buffs. ~150% is easy. I have several characters that have that much with just set bonuses and primary/secondary powers. Hard was 162.5% on my Ill/Savage (i never take Hasten on dominators. i'm playing to play, not to time powers and juggle clicks).

Yes. With 91.78% Recharge Reduction slotted in Light Form and 151.25% global +Recharge, the recharge time is 87.46s. Spiritual Core Paragon drops it to 79.4s.

It was buffed significantly, not nerfed, and the Hold isn't restricted to robots. https://cod.uberguy.net/html/power.html?power=controller_buff.trick_arrow.emp_arrow&at=controller You really should verify things before angryposting.

All escorts glom onto the nearest critter if you lose them, either by moving too fast or by leaving a certain range (which is significantly reduced by all forms of stealth). They're supposed to automatically switch back to following you if you get close enough to them (i've never had one fail to do so, though some seem to need you to be within melee range of the escort to reacquire it).

Statesman was killed because he started every sentence with "Statesman SEZ!" when the Freedom Phalanx held meetings.

Darkest Night uses Ranged_Debuff_Dam. Tanker's is higher than brute's. Melee_Debuff_Dam with different scalars (1.0 tanker, 0.85 brute, 0.75 scrapper/stalker). There are only the two modifiers, Melee_ and Ranged_Debuff_Dam, everything else is scalars. Some powers are manually adjusted to be "better" in different ways when different archetypes use them. Others are left at default scalar values and what makes them "better" on one archetype versus another is the modifier it uses. In the case of Chilling Embrace, the scalars are identical for all four melee archetypes. Same with Darkest Night tanker vs. brute. Neither is underperforming in comparison to another, they're working exactly according to formula. Dominator Chilling Embrace and various Quick Strikes were modified to use different scalar values, to make them perform outside of the formula. I know you're asking about the why of some powers sticking to the formula and others being modified, and I can't answer that authoritatively. What I can say is that it's probably a combination of balance, survivability and function on a team.

You can still do it. Select a head (any head, don't waste time making any customizations), select the aura, change to headless. You have to go through those steps again if you make other changes, or the next time you enter the editor, but it persists once you're out of the costume editor.

You're questioning whether the horniest species in the universe will create AI sex therapists?

Melee_Debuff_Dam. 0.075 for brutes, scrappers and stalkers, 0.07 for tankers.

This happened when I was trying to finish off a Champion Swiper (+0) with a sliver of health remaining (so little that it wasn't visible on the HP bar). I'm stubborn, so when Chilling Ray missed, I queued it again. And missed again. Did I mention that I'm stubborn? I queued Chilling Ray a third time, and finally dealt damage. I'm at 141.3% hit chance versus +0 critters with that attack. The second time I used Chilling Ray, the streak breaker should've kicked in. Autohit Sleep breaks the streak breaker. That's no bueno. Doubly so when taking into consideration that Sleeps were changed to autohit to make them more worthwhile, but instead, they're causing miss streaks. I just respec this character to add Chilling Ray this morning and I'm kicking myself for wasting the time. @Captain Powerhouse, @Booper, breaking the streak breaker is a no-no. Sort it out. It'd be nice to have real hit roll info, too, since that was lost when Sleeps were changed to autohit.

Since it's in his stomach, not his veins, wouldn't elevate blood pressure mean he... pees? @Snarky PEED HIMSELF AND IT LOOKS LIKE HE'S ON HIS PERIOD! 😁

Jalapeños make me hiccup. Old, pickled jalapeños that have lost most of their heat. That motherfucker would make me hork up my one working lung, or suck my nostrils straight into my chest cavity. The only thing I can imagine it being used for is domestic terrorism, something truly diabolical, like spritzing public restroom toilet paper rolls with the oils. I would say not to try that at home, but if any of you have a public restroom at home, you have bigger problems than potential FBI interest after reading what I wrote and thinking, "Hey, I should do that!".

It's already there, but only Robin Tunney can access it.

I am Jack's wasted life.

Yes. 😁

Gargantuan is 8.75%. ATOs, Preventative Medicine and Reactive Defenses sets. Ultimate is purples, Superior ATOs, stuff you can't slot until 50.

Most enemy groups were tailored to specific level ranges. And some enemies originally had more powers, but over time were nerfed (there was a massive reduction of NPC status effects in Issue 4 or 5, to cite one example).

Necromancy mastermind attacks would fit this concept quite nicely.

This is why you never take culinary advice from the undead. Fresh makes the crust soggy. Grind the hearts up, season them and let them cure for a few months, then top your pizza with them.
