Yeah we keep being told the game is balanced around SOs. I have significantly agree. the advice shouldn't be "slot it to the gills" with IOs to make it . . . decent. That's a balance problem on it's face. lol

I am forever calling this set Brain Armor from now on. thanks for this. LMAOOOO

Yeah you are right. This is dead on arrival. lol

Honestly anything that doesn't feel fun to play will be getting mothballed. I don't have the patience anymore to deal with the ridiculousness of the respec system/screen. (IMO one of the worst parts of City of Heroes -- not HC fault, it's always been that way. Champions Online improved this a bit.). I'll just play anything else (Set or AT as needed). I'm used to it with HC changes by now. lol

I'd appreciate if they FINALLY focus on the work of improving Brutes as you said. I disagree that they need to do anything else with Tankers for now (for now being in the next year or two). Enough is enough, let's please focus on making Brutes better as you and others allude to. Continuing to futz around with Tankers is just ignoring the large (FURIOUS 😝) elephant in the room. lol

Oh knowing the current devs, I can EASILY see them insisting on some tradeoffs So with that assumption, I think Tar Patch should be left alone. Shoo. Look away devs! lol

very very good points. Agreed with the proposed boundaries. 😊

was the theme song to this playing? 😂

Thank you!!!!!!!!! 🙏

Also I think some folks are more seriously considering Linux as other posters said due to the absolute trashfest nonsense known as Windows Recall, that MS is sticking to trying to force down everyone’s throat. (Yes I know it’s opt-in, but how long do we think THAT will last).

No thanks. I like this mm pet the way it currently is. This sounds like it would be better for a new separate set.

I think this would be a nice QOL request they could fulfill. Would make moving things around to prepare for endgame or hard mode activities slightly easier. I would be fine with it having or cost or even zero cost. Either way, good suggestion. 😊 EDIT: With that said I am not sure how difficult this would be to fulfill. Seeing as how we really have not gotten anything new in the incarnate system in well . . . I think ever . . . Makes me think making large changes to it is not easy.

And all this makes me glad we have COH. Where I can take breaks from the mental stack craziness of games like FFXIV and come here and relax. As epic as FF14 can get at times (minus the trash story of the latest expansion) I still much prefer the more open and relaxing nature of COH. So much so that I avoid the trials gear grind of 14 and simply buy my gear after farming the necessary Gil (currency in FF universe), of its auction house equivalent. As to the discussion on Jack and this game, all I’ll say is that his next game (Champions) went free to play eventually and is currently a hollowed out husk in maintenance mode that hasn’t gotten any serious story or expansion content in years. And the first year of its existence was pretty much even more nerf heavy than what was experienced in COH. Take from that history lesson what you will. I’m glad Positron, War Witch, Backalley Brawler and the rest of the crew who followed Jack, ended up being more interested in making an actually fun game.

I would be fine with anything that makes it easier to use as long as the Devs didn't bring any type of reduction with that. If they feel it needs to be made weaker in anyway, then no thanks to this suggestion. The devs have said they see getting mezzed from time to time as part of the gameplay. So I'm not sure they would be willing to make preventing that easier.

Hmm the last few points back and forth seem like this would be difficult to implement. I would argue that if they ever do develop such a power for MMs (I’m neither for or against) I would like the option to STILL have the ability to directly upgrade my pets. I would be highly annoyed if that was fully taken out of my control. Regardless the people the OP would have to convince are the devs, who have said they expect MMs to behave and work as an AT in a certain way.
