BrandX

Likely waiting to kill Peter Parker so they can have Miles come in and steal the name.

Venom was just okay. It was never really that great. Then it went down hill on the second one. Sony-verse has been trash since day one. Their CGI never felt as good as MCU even at MCU's worse. Like old FOX X-Men movies.

Exactly! And yes, cool attacks, should make them worth taking 🙂

As someone with a SS and Spines user, yes, l'd like to see them improved as well. Those attacks should be powers people don't want to skip!

True, that is an issue since they didn't have them before. I do want comic accurate X-Men

I don't think we need a whole new universe. I think there have been some problems with some of the movies after, but I also think part of the problem is people who were fans going "Whaaaaa! I don't have the mental ability to continue on! Story hard." 😛

Coming back to this. I think maybe this is really the way to go with the set. I tried to think of an interesting thing to maybe add to the set, but really, it just needs a few tweaks. Focused Burst...Total Focus Level Damage. Simple. The fact that this attack has any range really means very little. You're a melee AT, it's going to be used in melee more than range and it's use as a runner pick off isn't that big of a deal. I'd add a hold effect to the attack as well, but I like having a Hold in a set, so admittedly could be biased there. For sure Total Focus level damage on this. Concentrated Strike...Give it crit damage! Preferably FULL crit damage! That's all it needs. I'm not sure it really needs more than that. Doesn't help Tankers/Brutes as much as it will on Stalkers/Scrappers, but I don't think the animation needs tweaked. The first three attacks are good enough for regular mission clearing. Give Focused Burst the above mentioned tweak and you have another solid for that aspect. After that, one can either skip CS...take it for those ST DPS moments (AVs/GMs/EBs)...or just use it for regular missions and accept it's longer animation. Those two tweaks and it improves the sets DPS without making it the new top tier, just improved.

Honestly, I'm not as bothered by such things, as it's part of the story and you either accept it or just don't watch it. Though, today I'm sure people would do some sort of protest over it. 😛 Seems like something that wouldn't be any different from a SVU or Criminal Minds episode. Some fiction just isn't for some people. Plus, I'd imagine it'd be animated at which point I am even more likely to not care, as it's animated. But that could be something they could easily skip to.

Oh yeah, with no DDR, it isn't, but seeing as how MoG gives +Resist and +Defense, putting a 3% Defense buff in Resilience doesn't seem off imo for that healthy body, especially since a lot of regens always seem to be able to able to move with good agility.

I honestly, don't recall that, but I only watched the anime and it's been awhile. I know she was 17 in the manga, 18 in the American dub, and then I think back to 17 in something...but that...I really don't recall that in the anime.

I did some testing with Kinetic Melee and I found the chain with CS was higher DPS, however, without CS, it wasn't that much lower.

lol...they went down hill, but to be fair, I sorta felt they all went gradually downhill.

You mean the 17 year old prostitute? Just being a prostitute? Honestly, that would just be backstory. However, two girls running a gun shop while being bounty hunters, pulling off John Wick style moves. Seems like it might work.

As did I. I do believe they had the plan to go a different route, as they had Marlene join Scott back in space, instead of staying behind. Think she may have even gone minor Phoenix mode. If revitalized, I'd likely go with Macross without many changes, and then move it on from there. If for no other reason than to keep the Macross style Valkyries and introduce the Cyclones without the Alpha and Betas (what I would do anyways :p) Rick and Lisa endgame tho ❤️

Robotech. I want to see Rick and Lisa bringing the romance to the screen! Thundercats, thought I'd love for them to just continue the 2011 series. That was a great reboot. Some older animes that could be fun is things like Gunsmith Cats.

The newest movie is only 4 years old.

This got me thinking... I can see adding the Fear Protection. Slow Protection. -Regen resist. Add these to Integration. Though, Fear Protection could just be put into Moment of Glory. Add some Defense All and +Recharge to Resilence. You're body is healthy! It keeps a good amount of adrenaline going, which helps keep you resilient. I'm not saying a huge amount in the defense. Small amount and enough to add in some IO options. Not sure we need the absorb, but tacking some on Reconstruction wouldn't be bad or a passive type equal to Preventive Medicine attached to Fast Healing. But, if not that, could just give Reconstruction a bit of Heal over Time like Time Manipulation's heal. So a good heal and then a small heal that last a bit of time.

WP has heightened Senses. That's how they avoid being blind.

Agreed on CS crit issue. Needs fixed too. No reason these t9's shouldn't crit.

I think we all know, it's not gonna surpass Violent Night as the go to Christmas movie. However, from what I've read it's basically turning Santa into a superhero movie.

I figured it might put it in line with the likes of Follow Up or Blinding Feint. Though, this was all just more thoughts on what to do.

For sure I think Focused Burst should be made to do Total Focus level damage. I get that FB has range but for a melee class I don't feel that means to much. My suggestion for Power Siphon being given a bit of PBAOE damage potential, is just because I don't think it should require a target (it doesn't now) and I can't imagine it would hit just one target otherwise. However, using it and it adds proc kicker could be good, as suggested, to help all the ATs, I believe was the idea there. CS getting a tiny animation shortening would help it as long as they don't touch anything else.

I had forgotten about CS. However, on my Scrapper, if I recall my testing, did better DPS with CS use than without, but I also don't recall it being a big difference (I'd have to go back to a post on it to double check). At the same time, I do know, I didn't use CS except on tough targets, because it just wasn't needed on the lower ranked enemies. I think a lowering of it's animation by just a bit would work.

Is there a reason you don't just get it to level 5 (or was it 6) and then it's just a yearly log in.

I agree the set is technically fine and playable. Had more than one Kinetic Melee and felt just fine. Doesn't mean it couldn't use a few tweeks. That said, last place sets will always be considered weak even if weak isn't all that weak. Using pylon times as an example, you have a difference of less than 43 seconds from top set to KM.
