Yeah. Thats a little more tight there.

Honestly your AoE's waking the sleepers, was likely not fully part of your wipes, the ARS player may not have been synergizing their powers well, depends on how low in the hollows we are talking. ARS Control is very effective when you leverage off of sleep grenade. Liquid Nitrogen (at 6) dropped after Sleep Grenade plays well so if (when) they are awakened, them falling on their buttocks and taking damage, renders them essentially out of play. A little higher up in level Smoke Canister (at 12) is great because if they are awakened (I mean when they are awakened) they begin fighting each other and at the same time sleep ticking again. Its glorious controlled chaos that works just fine in a team, people just need to get away from thinking every control set needs hard locks or immobs to work a group at low levels with ARSC. I really enjoy the set. Granted, when you get to 18 or 22 you get your AoE disorient and AoE hold so bonus plan there which gives you even more group management until you get your aggro sponge tri-cannon also shooting up your sleepers 😞

Well if it was anything like the real world than people with metahuman powers would either be property of a corporation, agents of a government, wanted criminals or dead.

Now if you are really looking for Badgers . . . Ask this guy, he may also show you how he teaches poodles to fly.

Mids has now posted up an update that incorporates a lot of Page 7 in it including Arsenal Control (ARSC) and Arsenal Assault (ARSA). I just hit update in the software and bikity bam it was done. It doesn't have everything (their own statement - lot of numbers) but they were clearly working it hard during Beta to make sure it was out there when Seven was released. and Zed and others on their Discord channel are actively working a lot of the things that aren't in this update.

I too had a police drone GM roll in to help us with a Council creep who had been blown through the geometry. Not sure about just street walking NPC's But I tell myself that the GM's are secretly the ones saying nice things about my costume or how hot I look or how they should make an action figure of me.

Not there now. Dagger

There are plenty of varieties of meat to add many vectors of flavor. I get all four food groups; meat, dairy, grains, and tomatoes (fruits and vegetables). This whole dumb argument over weather its a fruit or vegetable was not an issue when I was a kid and you grouped. Darn hippies.

The only fruit or vegetable that belongs on pizza is tomato, in sauce form. Pineapple is tasty and improves other flavors (according to my spouse), but it does not belong on pizza.

I still use Mids, it is a useful tool for framing characters and getting an idea of what the path will be. I am sure that they will have the new powers soon enough. I agree with the statements about making if more resource hungry the no longer supporting forum exports smoothly is a little bit of a pain. But I also don't see anyone else out there coding something to compete or replace so I still support it.

To a New Yorker such as yourself a Hero is some kind of weird sandwich not some nut who defeats Psi-Lass 20-25 times.

I would love to see some more "unique" Oranbegan rooms. My favorites are the one that is like a church with the summoning portal and of course the one with the goddess Hequat's image. SOme grand pyramidy, pillery open spaces with like lights and sparkles and spires of energy being all . . . spirey. And pools of magic water. And Blackjack.

1. Return my keyboard layout to what I am used to. 2. Roll up an ARS/ARS Dom. 3. Alter costumes on a few characters who like berets and/or really revealing, gauzy garments. 4. Whatever strikes my fancy.

The new keymapping schema should not alter alter peoples existing layout, just those new installs. I will just have to remap back all of my characters. Price of new business I suppose.

Just ran around Bricks at Level 30 ARS/ARS Dom. I was pleased with the set when it was first dropped then upset as it was tinkered with in the wrong direction but now its back to enjoyable. I will be rolling one (or two like I did with Storm) and let actual game play over time feedback shape the future of the set. Thanks devs.

Proton Cell? You mean Positron Cell right?

Storm Blast. I have enjoyed the power set from the jump. I have never found it underwhelming, or not fun and never had a problem working most enemies off; once you stopped theorycrafting the numbers and instead learned the mechanics and played it . . . barrels of fun. The changes just make it even better, I have a Storm/Atom Blaster and it felt stronger but where it realy seemed to show improvement in feel, flow and fatality (the enemy not me) was on my Storm/Storm Corruptor. This is a classic example of letting the set play out for a bit to breath and identify the real problem children in the power then fix. This practice should be aplied to the impending Arsenal Control. Bravo Zulu!

pictures are all brokey smurf.

I frame a character up in Mids but tweak as I play for fun. When I hit 30 I start to look at improving (not min-maxing) areas to make my character more enjoyable with Set IO's (no purples). Only when I have truely fallen in love with a character do I even think about doing deep dives and questioning slotting.
