Why Play Any Control Set Other Than Mind Control?
High_Beam replied to Rinwen's topic in General Discussion
Don't judge it by the sounds, they are wretched. It is a good set once you become handy with the mechanics, especially once you get your pet. Lots of cones but lots of proc opportunities and I enjoyed my Blue Aria all the way up to fifty and beyond. I was however kidding about the S Class part, she aint that strong, more of an A in my opinion though others mark the set down further. -
As for the Old Community. I don't know, Pierce Hawthorne was butt annoying and diminished several episodes. The last season was pretty wretched to boot except for Keith David being added. Still, a bad episode if Community is better than the best episode of Big Bang Theory.

Mind Control. Pffft. Symphonic Control is the S Class control 🙂 -

That gif is freaking perfect! And just more proof of Eddie Murphy's comic ability. -

I was a career blaster on live and somewhat on HC and I used to say that Debt was like a warm blanket to a blaster, you always knew it would be there and that in itself was comforting. The Babes of War used to say my Epic Power was debt. I should find my old sig graphic that had an odometer style counter spinning to measure debt.

Again I totally agree with the first post from @Greycat. The Shard is a very panoramic place that while a PITA to navigate around has a sense of wonder to it. Let villains get in, absolutely; its not like they don't have dimensional portal traveling shenanigan ability (Technician Naylor, and of course Aeon). It makes complete sense. The suggestion about tightening up the Task Forces is spot on . . . so many Defeat on the complete opposite side of where you are then afterwards the opposite side of where you are. More missions, I mean there are a number of other aspects of Rularuu besides Faathim and Ruladak represented. Story content - Maybe they get into what the Factory Cubes are, or what creates the Reflections. Chularn the Slave Lord , or Aloore the Watcher (I cannot remember the others offhand without digging around in the Wiki) would make for nice additional EB or AV enemies to fight. And if you consider the AMA Lore coupled with the aspects and ramifications of the Who Will Die SSA, the Shard will have played a significant role in the Incarnate vs Battalion Coming Storm (TM) shtick. Plus there is always a Nemesis Plot (not available in all locations, sorry Tennessee). as for Kora, the only Kora I know is CORA, the AI computer that helped Starbuck deal with that abandoned Colonial Prison on Proteus . . . but I digress.

Is Market Inefficiency Causing Salvage Price Spiral?
High_Beam replied to Herotu's topic in The Market
I am not a marketeer (lack of patience, skill or desire to improve either), yellows are the ones I actually sell the most. Most of my recipe crafting demands white and orange so that's what is in the lockers less 5 of each yellow type. All of my alts restock the bins as they get and sell what remains. Yes the slowness and impatience does occur with me, becuase when I am on my crafter, I dont want to wait very long to complete my crafting so I will put a higher bid in at times. But its not that slow so its rarely an issue. -
I can see a whole slew of capes using the Bannanarama theme Shocking Venus (their cover of Venus by Shocking Blue) First Degree a fire anything (Love in the First Degree) Waterloose water balst of aweseome (they covered ABBAs Waterloo on a 25th Anniversary album also the Erasure cover on that album was also good).

I saw it, it was fine. 3.5 out of 5. There were some funny moments but the thing is it was different than what's been shoveled out as of late. Sure there was a message but I didn't feel bludgeoned to death by it. America Fererra actually had the best written and acted character followed by Robbie. Not enough Kate McKinnon and too much Ferrell (totally agree on the Mattel scenes less the part with Rhea Perlman's character). Gonna see Blue Beetle this coming weekend because friends said while its average from a story standpoint, the characters are fun and funny and there is heart like the first Shazam.

Oh no I don't hate MMs, have 4 myself (not bots though). But yeah, flying robots are like like freaking Robot Apocalypse Now with Wagner playing and Colonel Kilgore saying I love the smell of Pulse Lasers in the morning.

Funny I wasn't ever bothered by it because I had almost never seen it used, probably as much as Whirlwind, I never needed to see Null the Gull for it. Then I read this thread then do a Numina Task Force with a Bots MM who pretty much had it on all the time and it totally messed me up. I asked them to turn it off at least in mission and they did so, but damn. When I got done I brought all 32 of my primary alts to Null to get it turned off.

The Hellions are straight up fodder. The Skulls used to be like that until they added the Superadine RIng story arc which gave them more depth and a bit more menace to them. Their revamp to include the Death Dolls and Death Walkers and the story's to go with it made them step into the playable story enemy realm. Conversely trying to shoehorn a second low-level fodder faction into a content change seems like a wasted effort. Plus when one understands that the Circle made a pact with the Prince of Hell, the Circle gets to be the increasing level devil lovers. The Warriors, if you do the Redemption of Alexander Arc you get some details form them and when coupled with Mortimer Kal TF, they have a little more depth. I still think they are lame; they need some powered boss types like the Tsoo have (magical warrior artifacts or maybe even getting small doses of low powered incarnate energy). Or lean into the mthology a bit and add some female flair (stolen from say Cimerora template) with Oracles and such like they did with Girlfriend from Hell. Outcasts. Hollows. Nuff Said. Boring and I am tired of dealing with Frostfire . . . everywhere. Trolls . . . me have body by Superadine. We are given a little more troll flavor in the Lords of Death Skull Arc. And if you do he Hollows and the Cavern of Transcendance a little more. But really they are essentially drug addicts. So unless someone wants to lean in and go hard on making them rage-filled murder thugs who rip arms off and beat you with them, move on. You give them say an unrelenting pursuit thing like those Ghouls in Praetoria but capable at resisting and regenerating, or you create some unique bosses. Or at least give us some depth story wise. I used them as a minor plot device in book one of the Munitions Mistress series (edited somewhat due to liberal use of the F-Word): For a second or two I thought I had made a mistake asking, he looked like he was going to go off, but that lasted only a few seconds. “Freaking Superadine. Freaking Trolls. They was bigger and stronger so we got our asses beat. But unlike the old days, those green fuckers didn’t stop. Billy was stabbed through the chest with some freaking rebar. Manny, Man Hittin they freaking cut his head clean off. The Brawler almost made it, almost had that freaking Troll leader, Grondor or Gundor or whatever the hell his name was. But crazy guys like to fight in groups, so they ripped him apart . . . literally pulled his arms and legs right out of their sockets.” He wiped his eyes a little and looked up at the ceiling. I actually felt bad about asking, “Sorry Jimmy, I didn’t mean to.” He waved me off. “Nah, nah, the Doc says it’s good for me to deal with my issues. So anyways, me and the Islander escape, but we are pissed so we do the only thing we think we can do. We get us some Superadine. We figure, it gave those mooks powers, it should increase our powers right. Of course, we weren’t doctors, hell most of us didn’t graduate high school, so we had no idea what would happen. Oh, but that first hit was freaking fabulous, I mean I dead lifted a freaking Mack truck and tipped it over like it was a freaking Tonka toy. And the Islander, forget about it, that guy could already knock a Rhino out, and I mean literally, we got drunk, went to the Bronx Zoo and he knocked a freaking Rhino out. So now it’s on and we head back to the Trolls turf, and we murdered them all, like a freaking hurricane." It's all about story with all of these factions.

honoroitisfantastic whats your most pressing issue?
High_Beam replied to honoroit's topic in General Discussion
Totally down with a whips power set. A short range Blaster set or I suppose it could port as a a control set. Weapon customization would allow for things like chains, or barbed wire, or if you are being fanciful a feather boa or a snake (snake whip!). Mmmmm . . . Whip Mistress Becca demands to be creeated -
honoroitisfantastic whats your most pressing issue?
High_Beam replied to honoroit's topic in General Discussion
Other - Definitely none of the items specifically cased. I consider things like more story content, zone or story revamps more pressing. Or a new controller set like Wind or Water control. Or a new generic pool power like gadgets. But those arent as pressing. -

Madame! Do not get your Corsets and Petticoats in a bundle! I can say most assuredly that our Lord Nemesis has no interest in your interactive projectophone dalliances.
