Formless Kheldians would be cool, surely opens a lot of character concepts up for roleplayers without hurting much of anything. It might be a bit awkward to look at though- still needing to use the form buttons and the weird pauses in-between attacks, but if someone is ok with dealing with it, why not?

@Rudra i aint reading all that homie, he floats in the water in the abyss he could float in pi's water. but we both know this idea is just a silly one and wouldn't actually happen.

I only spoke in the Guardian channel occasionally with her, was a nice person to chat with. RIP Anne, sorry for your loss

Theres no conspiracy is exactly what people involved in a conspiracy WOULD say 🤔

I mean you right, that carnie phase mechanic is bad. However, most enemy groups are fine really even the new changes are still fine imo i love when they turn into wolfs at death myself. Synpase didn't make the carnies, rularuu, defeat all missions or a huge plethora of the things that are usually considered annoying. He was hired in 2008. It's entirely possible he believed those mechanics weren't the best as well, you'd have to ask him though. For the record though, I think he was talking as a homecoming player and his opinion on what he likes least, since he was asked "would do differently if it was you in charge?." I am biased though, Synapse/Bab were my favorite devs.

Synapse is 100% correct, making enemies take longer to kill is not difficulty. It's just more boring. I don't personally mind the council or cot revamps myself as they still don't take very long but i too wish homecoming had the time and man power to revamp enemy groups to have cool gimmicks and mechanics instead of more resistances and the ability to revive. I'm sure homecoming wishes they had more time and man power too' just a hunch

More freedom of creativity is always a good thing. People already do their best to make their character theme unique with colors alone. More FX options and using things like Weapons in place of the actual set is cool and good. Don't let the haters tell you that one set can't be something just because of its name and original theme.

hard disagree, i like to push roleplayers off the atlas square into the water when they're afk Bath time for roleplayers

Not to defend homecoming, because i will never forgive them for not naming it beanbag control, but Homecoming is the official server. It's the only official server since the live game. The questions asked should be about the Live server, not the many rogue servers. Side note, There were questions asked and answered about the other servers. Those individuals were likely completely welcome to come and ask questions since some of those questions made it in. Homecoming and its team appears to have not interfered with that at all. I've never seen them disallow their mention on here, in game or the discord either.

Synapse is the goat fr

Lots of solid reasons being given about the ST fear, I'd still want something else personally but i no longer hold the opinion it -should- be changed.

So -50% on scrapper -75% on tank for the presence taunt, to keep in line with being weaker but still a proper taunt alternative

Well, you have limited power choices and given unrelenting needs 2 prior powers and offers a taunt alternative, It'd be nice to take the presence taunt over the normal taunt, at the cost of targets hit and it not feel bad to do. It's currently worse two fold by no -range of any kind and less targets (on tanks) Even if the -range was 75% and not the full 100% to be in line with being less than normal taunt, like the revive in medicine vs the revive in support powers, I'd still be happy. that's fair enough

I could see that, the lower recharge would be more appealing while leveling for sure. At 50 though and especially while stacking recharge bonuses, I dunno if there'd be much reason for the ST over the aoe. I can see why you'd have both, but i dunno why the ST would be better than the aoe at 50

Also i should probably specify, I don't even think presence -needs- the ST fear removed, I just think a better power could be there instead. If all they did was add -range to the taunt, I'd probably still be completely happy.

Can you expand on your use of the ST fear? I've never actually seen anyone take it outside of in PvP 15 years ago.

@Luminara It's not selfish, It's also already happened in this game numerous times, see blasters. You're also arguing for people who probably don't exist. I highly doubt anyone is going to be like "No! My single target fear! THE CORNER STONE OF MY BUILD!" The mindset that we can't change anything or update anything is a terrible one, bad game dev, and giving the original devs way too much credit in the assumption they didn't make mistakes. Also, the other fear isn't going anywhere, is the same mag and recharges quickly with a half decent build. So removing the ST fear would change nothing.

Presence is especially bad because the opportunity cost of taking Unrelenting is horrific. Make the placate aoe, remove the ST fear and replace it with a new power entirely. Add -range to the taunt and presence will be cool. What should the new power be? Lots of things, but i think a buff shout could be cool like the romans have. Doesn't even need to be a huge buff or anything really. maybe a lil bit of recharge and some +tohit or maybe some +res or something who knows, shout buffs would be neat as hell though
