Oscar is also fun!
It's just very much translated from a stage play which makes the film feel less dynamic as it doesn't ever leave the house it's set in

Wyatt Russell has so much charisma that he has to say something every 30 seconds that reminds you that John Walker is an asshole and it's great
-
Oh also the fact that this Thunderbolts team is made up of people that almost exclusively shoots/punches/kills their enemies and none of those skills are useful? Amazing
I want to see John Walker have to process his toxic masculinity in order to save the universe, thank you!

Saw it today! Absolutely loved it except for one character death. I wouldn't say it wowed me while I was watching it, but afterwords I am actually very impressed. For a story that I already knew what the basic beats were going to be, I never felt bored or even like I truly knew what would happen next. This thing had me laughing a lot (the "It's my dad" scene was perfect) even in a movie with a ton of dark themes. As someone who suffers from extreme depression, I found this movie both handled its themes with care and also didn't actually submerge into the darkness for too long. That is a hard line to walk, and I absolutely didn't expect it to work so well.
With the exception of Black Widow and Shang-Chi I have disliked to outright hated everything in the MCU post Thor Ragnarok. I liked Thunderbolts. A lot. And actually had fun discussing future MCU possibilities.
What a world!

Yeah, thematically Scarlet Spider is Super Reflexes and Red Hood is Ninjitsu, though 90s Ben Reilly had impact webbing and stingers which gave him a bit more of an arsenal beyond just the webshooters
For the feel of an anti-hero stalker I'd probably go Street Justice/Ninjitsu - once past the webs/guns both characters are pretty flashy hand-to-hand fighters who aren't above tilting the odds by throwing caltrops or blinding powder

Remember that the three fighting pool attacks enhance Brawl as well. I don't remember how much, but it's a free attack! Otherwise I'd probably grab Soul Tentacles

FF or Cold. Your partners bring heals, absorbs, and debuffs, but none of that matters if your minions are dead. Grab a set with a defense shield and keep everyone upright! FF keeps you unmezzed while Cold gets you more debuffs. Triple stacked Enforcer maneuvers is about 24% plus 11% from FF or Cold shields. That means you need just 10% defense between Dispersion Bubble (or Arctic Fog), Shadowfall, your own Maneuvers, and the MM unique IOs to hit the softcap - easily managed.
Never get hit, never surrender!

Honestly it sounds like people would benefit from some youtube tutorials on how Mids is both used in general and specifically the tools Mids offers to theorycraft a build

If you aren't even taking the two best DPA ST attacks and skipping the nuke, I have genuine questions about why you are even playing a Corr.
My point is why would anyone care

I think anyone who gets mad about not seeing a power in your list is laughable, and seeing you not use a power you do have is only slightly better
You can’t see slotting! Even if I'm using the powers you want me to, you'll never know that my build is filled with expired red SOs, or that my KB powers are slotted only with accuracy and extra KB, etc
The only way to combat this would be to kick people based on how many IO set-bonuses they have listed.
Edit: oh I see this has already been mentioned. Welp, to each their own then

I really enjoy Rad Blast on Sentinels just because I can PBAoE and long-windup-AoE without feeling like I'm signing my own death warrant

Mind has Sleep, Hold, Confuse, Fear, Knock-up, and the TK repel/immob, which I think is slightly better than Illusion for finding an opponent's weakness to exploit. Dominantor Phantom Army doesn't have taunt

I have a Grav/Energy Dom in the works, so far lots of chaos there along with Dimension shift and Fold Space!
But for Controllers anything Illusion or Gravity paired with Force Field or Storm. Using Energy, Earth, Psi or Levi for your Epic. Too bad there isn't anything in the Incarnates to maximize the chaos.
Make sure to try a Energy/Storm Corruptor, that'll probably get you kicked off teams really fast!
Darn...now I have a few new characters to make....and no ToT crack to level them fast!
Edit - Spelling
If you grab Storm Elementals for your Lore you can get another Hurricane!

Back on live one of my SGmates triggered a costume change whenever he used Nova on his Energy Blaster, it looked very cool

Closest thing I have to that is a character that's a mastermind in a mech that she can only use for a limited time (it's got power source issues).
In her "base" form she's got an energy rifle and a couple of force blasts from her gauntlets. Then she can "power up" by calling in a mecha (using a prismatic costume of a cataphract) that can deploy smaller mech to fight alongside it in battle.
I really like this idea!
You can definitely do something similar with an Undead Transformation on a Necromancer, or more of a "reveal my secret allegiance" costume swap with Ninja/Mercs/Demons/Thugs
... I guess you could reveal your fursona for Beasts...

Buffs may be less important at 50 (but then just run harder content and they become important again), but Debuffs are always important.
Players have a damage cap, enemies do not have debuff cap (just debuff resistances). -res means more damage to the target, -regen means less healing back the damage you do. -tohit and -dam keep you alive, while -def helps you hit. -recovery can keep enemies from using their strongest powers or lower the frequency of their attacks, same for -recharge
There's nothing wrong with blasting away, but the support powers are force multipliers and there's no reason to overlook them on any AT

The Brute/Stalker Electric Melee - Thunderstrike animation bug is still present in this patch

My nitpick:
Why is Deceive so late? It's a wonderful tool in Illusion's arsenal that you have put aside for twenty levels. At the very least take Deceive where Kick is and move Kick and Tough back

Could probably unsticky this thread and replace it with a new and updated one
5 years of changes add up to a lot of irrelevant hot takes

Plant/Storm Controller - Sow fields of chaos, reap the whirlwind
Illusion/Traps Controller - All of our strengths, none of our weaknesses
Assault Rifle/Pain Corruptor - Outgun, Outlive, Outlast
Super Strength/Fire Armor Brute - Farmer's Choice

"Maximum Effort" is a Deadpool reference
Deadpool makes multiple "Superhero Landing" references in his movies

I have a AR/Pain Corr and I absolutely love running Oppressive Gloom for free!

Okay this looks fun
