Delta

After taking a break, I decided to create a new character for the challenge. Meet Shadow Bomb, a Dark Miasma/Energy Blast Defender. I recently managed to get her to level 22 (and Stamina finally!!) and so far have had a mostly smooth ride. I somehow missed out on a couple of arcs, one of which was due to a bugged out contact, but other than that, I have managed to do the other story arcs leading into the 20-24 arcs.

I created a character for the challenge as well, a DM/SR magic scrapper called The Shadow Crusher on Everlasting. So far, I have gotten her to level 10, with little issues, although I had a really close call with a +1 Hellion boss that nearly killed me (that Resurgence from the tutorial saved me from an embarrassing defeat), as well as the kill CoT mission in Perez Park (taking on a group of Hordeling Lashers and Life Mages without knockback protection was not a good idea). I did notice, at least from going the magic route that the Hellion leader that I faced in one of Azuria's missions appeared in a mission that Genevieve Sanders gives you a few levels later as a boss. That was something that I never noticed before. I also noticed that both the Hellion boss, as well as the Skulls boss that you face during that level have their health restored midway through the fight, which threw me off big time.

Yes, the Tier 9 is a ranged AOE attack, similar to Geyser, Blizzard, Thunderous Blast, etc. I should have made it a bit more clearer. As for the suggestion, that would be a better idea and it would give it an unique ability that would make it stand out from other sets. I also like this suggestion as well. Thanks for the feedback.

Kinetic Blast - Kinetic Blast grants you control over the power of the kinetic energy around you. This can allow you to weaken and take down enemies using the power of kinetic energy. When hit with a kinetic power, an enemy's attack power is reduced. Some powers allow the user to build up Kinetic Charge, while others consume Kinetic Charge. You can have up to 3 stacks of Kinetic Charge on yourself at a time. Your Kinetic Charge can be released to strengthen your Kinetic Drain, Focused Burst, and Kinetic Overload powers. These powers will consume all of your Kinetic Charge. 1. Kinetic Bolt (Available at Level 1) - You release a small bolt of kinetic energy, damaging your target and reducing their attack power. Kinetic Bolt builds 1 Kinetic Charge. Damage: Minor (Energy), Recharge: Fast (3s), Activation Time: 1s, Damage Buff: -10% (Target for 5s) 2.

From a Council radio mission: NPC] Archon Belaggi: ...and he says 'Aren't you a little old to be believing in leprechauns?' Then I threw him out the window! Hah! I love that one.

While doing a Hero's Hero arc from Maria Jenkins, I came across these two quotes: Elite Resistance Fighter: Hey! Finders keepers, scamper! Now you're getting two pounds of slambang for sneakin'! Elite Resistance Fighter: That's right. TWO pounds. Went from zero to - boooom! - TWO! Elite Resistance Fighter: My heebie-jeebies have totally hit eleven... Why are we here again, slammer?

After saving a hostage during one of Angus McQueen's missions: Who tha hero? You tha hero, Hero! You tha hero!

I remember * Some of the Martial Arts attacks seemed like it would take forever to animate. (I remember in particular Storm Kick's animation taking a long time to finish) * The old Positron Task Force and how long it took if your team wasn't built to handle it. * The ten minute mission from Tina Macintyre pre-Going Rogue

One thing that I feel would be cool is if there are NPC heroes and villains roaming around the area kinda like the villains seen in Brickstown. You could have the heroes on the villain side working to clean the area of villainy while the villains on the hero side of the zone work to bring more crime/influence to their side. These heroes/villains would not belong to any group/organization, instead setting their own paths. With these characters, I would set them up similar to the prisoners during the prison break zone event in Brickstown in terms of levels. You could also give them minions/sidekicks like regular mobs, but tailor to that specific villain/hero.

Greetings everyone. Virtue was my home server from the beginning to shutdown. I had several characters that I created over the years, but my main characters were, in no particular order ...
