I thank you for bringing CM back! .... this means a need for Carp Armor .....

yes. Yes. YES! Be honest with yourselves ...this a whole blooming issue. So excited to revisit and tweak a few characters.

I still have the original manuals. The first line from each description: Blaster - specializes in delivering massive damage at range* Controller - specializes in manipulating the actions of foes, causing them to stand immobile in battle, or controlling their movements, or even turning them into allies. Defender - power focus on healing foes, increasing their buffing abilities, and decreasing foes' debuffing abilities Scrapper -specializes in hand to combat. [...go to e-to-toe with enemy] Tanker - the "big man" of the team combing massive defense with powerful but not exceptionally quick offensive punch. In the early days of live you made choices that had hard limitations. As hard as Jack tried that turned out to not be the case. Case in point the *Blaster. Yes it has a BOOM stick to hit at range with massive damage.... it can then run up to you and hit you with said BOOM stick for massive damage. Blapping is perhaps the most fun I have at times. There are no hard rules anymore. A scrapper can take the med pool and heal from the edges. A controller can tank. Etc. A kheldian can be squid only(range), lobster only(tank), human only, and of course all three. Your hero. Your choice. Build as you wish. You have three builds to make.

Since I don't use Mids to build my character out: The ability to move slots without a full respec. and/or replacing a power for another without a full respec.

Fulcrum Shift ....

Combat teleport has changed everything for me. So fun on my Rad/Rad ....and my Dual Pistols/Ninjitsu ...oh wow!

May I suggest something outside what you are looking for. As some have said the "untouchables" tend to be inconsistent. What about getting the Summon Amy Johnson or summon Shivans ... would that work for you?

I have Psychic Tornado on my Fire/Kin slotted with KnockDown. May not be raining from above per se .... But when it hits after FS ...the bodies go up and some come down 😉

My Ice/Ice/Ice Tanker.... Basically a tanktroller as I have two holds, three if you count Ice Patch

The one you like to play. I have a Ice/Ice/Ice tanker that is a regular at Hami. Does very well and I have even Tanked Hami

Same here. I filled all my character slots on Indom. So here was my decision: I had already recreated my 4 main characters from live, got incarnate slots open etc. I picked one and have played her exclusively for the past two months aside from base building. It has been interesting to not only reach T4 in all my incarnates, but working on other ones. Working thru Ouro to get badges. As I head to the end of June ... I will be switching to ...we will see

I have played gold side up to level 20 on two characters and really did like the story arc. but .... It is empty, teaming is impossible. I have started a few characters redside, but always end up blue. May be there is a way liven those sides through things similar to weekly strike forces. Blueside has a ton of empty zones too.

Not sure if this has been covered yet. 1. Key-mapping is available thru menu>options>key-mapping tab. I use the numpad and bind powers to numpad0-9 tray 1 RightShift numpad0-9 takes are powers in tray 2 RightCtrl numpad0-9 powers in tray 3 I started this during live as I did not do binds or macros yet and I save as my default. When I roll a new hero I then load them, ready to go in minutes. I set up almost everything thru this tab. and put powers in consistent slots across all my characters. Travel powers are in 0, Shift 0, Ctrl0. Healing goes in numpad 5 etc ..... 2. Master Mind binds are already made for you. In the pet window all those buttons are drag-able to a tray. From the whole group down to each individual pet, those commands are can be dragged to a tray. Complete control in minutes. I then use the Key mapping window and the goto tray section to access them

Sometimes they get in ...

I agree with all your points. An overhaul is needed. Influence, items, and recipes. To add to the mix I am a daily player and not sure where that places me. The past two weeks I have resisted atltits and focused on one of my mains. She is penniless. Not through buying recipes, but buying the necessary items to craft said recipe and the cost of crafting said recipe. I do the WST and any offered TF and nightly Hami to get merits (Indom has fun and ordered run starting at 6:30pm EST). I can't MSR anymore due to my schedule.(2 runs a night starting at 8pm EST) The statement of "you don't need purples" .... is only partially true. Need ... no. Want ... yes. They tend to offer bigger bonuses especially when you got fully slot a set. I say restructure the bonuses offered and the labeling. No tiers of recipes. This sets offers me "abc bonuses" and this set offers "xyz bonuses". Do I want all the bonuses offered, or some and min/max. How interesting the game would be if set IOs went away ... Also I should need Mids to plan out a build. I don't use it and never have. This would then mean changing the tier item labeling ... there would be none. This makes the market irrelevant. Still a big part of the making inf, but I shouldn't have to wait on a purple to make inf. My last one was a month ago ..... I have also noticed a significant drop off on set recipe drops. I did Manti and got one .... on a tf. One. I agree with not wanting to know how to play the market to make inf. Since the change there have been far less farm invites offered in LFG. At least on Indom. I used to get a few levels on my lowbies, but wondering if people are doing them less. I hesitant about changes. I played on live pre- ED and pre things like Gauntlet for Tanker or Containment for a Controller. ED ended up being devastating to some, while the latter ... not so much. I am still playing. Still having a good time. but this change has been notice. oooh another vet level ...yay!

This. Is. Beautiful. This is the game we have now. Play it. I will confess to crying when I logged in and heard the music again ....

You might be a Tanker if.... you can't see teeny tiny font because you are used to looking at enemies up close .... *squints*

Mace was not an option, Munitions was. I should go villian for a Blaster to get that pool?

Rad/Atomic closing in on 50. Love it! uh..... epic pool choices though. Could use some help there.

It is odd I got everything else except the recipe.

By the title I was part of a group that ran Market Crash but I did not receive purple at the end. I received merits and badge. Is it a purple per account? or character as this was the first time on this particular character, second time on account.

WONDERFUL!!! These are fantastic, looking forward to more CC in the future.

Always great to hear something new! The voices grew on me, just feel it ineeds tenor and bass added to it. GO Hero! Go !

Down for this on Indom. all tanker MSR? we have an all MM MSR slated for 12/28 .... imagine taunting the entire ship into the bowl...again and again...and again.

Yes!!!
