Clave Dark 5

So that explains why I've never seen this giant spider before - it blinded me!

I'd never really thought about it, but since they can set it for just present throwing, they should be able to theoretically set it for any number of things. Throwing nothing but (lamp) shades would be funny. 😃 And I'm sure there's a character concept for someone who throws nothing but those cement gargoyles.

Anyone know how wide a base those things have? Zone-wide, 100 feet? I hoard them.

Huh, I had no idea. Maybe I've never done that one before. o_o

How did you get those eyes? Is that part of the aura?

I have that same issue on a toon with that same hat, or a hat much like it (it's been awhile). For me it worked out because the scalp color wasn't too different than the hat color so I imagine few people notice it. Then again, I didn't take the cell-shading effect in consideration, which makes it look much worse huh?

Huh, I could have sworn I saw someone running around with that name. Maybe they tricked the censor by swapping out and I for an L, that sort of thing.

Do you? I often take Kick instead of Boxing when I start up the Fighting tree, even if I don't use it much, but from what I've seen when I do, the weapon stays out.

Repsecs are easier to come by (if still a pain) so trying something out's not a bad idea; you can always dump it later. I have to admit I listen to a fair amount of received wisdom from the forums to help me make my choice too, but you have to get a good number of opinions to make a decent call so that one lone person telling you to six slot Rest or something won't lead you astray.

It's s shared pair of rose-tinted glasses, if so, because that's how I remember things too. (0% of the time it was great, and angry or mean posters didn't last long for whatever reason (I recall seeing a few identifiable ones over on the Champions Online forum when that game was just starting up).

Huh, after all the big talk around how scary they were going to be for level-capped toons, I' was kinda expecting something bigger.

I had forgotten about the getting outside trick until seeing this so I went and did it myself. I even saw another player outside while I was there, apparently taking selfies with the Tardis on the roof. And imagine my great disappointment after trying to fly off to one of those distant planets in the sky that I discovered you apparently can't. Aw well, stopped off and got my Manny's t-shirt before I went home.

Never acknowledge you posted the thread in the firts place, block any replies from showing up in your email. Deny everything. Threaten legal action if anyone ever raises the topic again.

Seconding Arnabas here. I'm currently solo leveling a stalker by playing through red side (my true home here!) and taking my own sweet time to sight-see and revisit old haunts, as well as to run some content not just steamroll through radios, and what I've seen so far has been pretty entertaining! Additionally, the pressure to make THE NEXT INCARNATE THINGY!!!!!111!! is going to be high, whereas dropping some new stuff say around level 25 won't be at all; all sorts of complainers will crawl from the woodwork when that time comes,but not for level 25 stuff. But I too would like some new stuff under the Incarnate umbrella to get frustrated with.

That's splitting hairs, tt's still a change to "the game" that were in place previously. One wonders however why they haven't done it already yet, then; maybe they have good reasons. Seems to me this is just a lot of work to achieve partial results (every returning vet won't get their favorite name back, for instance). The best way to address that and every other issue surrounding the topic would be to work towards freeing up all names for anyone, no unique names for anyone, then the most people will be able to play happy.

How is it not a bend? Hyperbole about cartoon supervillians is silly here - villains take what they want by force and don't give options to opt out, ha ha.

I've seen it described as running out of names more than once, yes, not everyone here believes that, but it's not absent from the conversation going on. If the live game could run for years with real sub numbers, I think we can obviously get along fine without enacting the unlocking policy. I don't really care if they do or don't - the more updates to the old game the better! - but I've been led to believe it's not an easy thing? Maybe I'm wrong on that. The hyperbole of it all is what I was reacting to.

I prefer to think of poison more as "less crazy-super OP compared to most other power sets," but I'll tell ya, my Proc Monster Poison troller still hung just fine and wasn't a slouch. I think I did skip that heal though.

Exactly, pulling this argument this early into the existence of this iteration just doesn't make sense, seems to smack of a kind of "no, YOU bend MY way!" expectation.

Something up with your end of the pipe then, it doesn't do that for most players.

I thought there were some non-skull options in there? I made a Dark toon sometime back and only took them to like 30, but I do seem to recall that option in the costume creator. It wasn't labeled that, but...

Find it kind of odd that people say we're running out of names after a year+ when the original game ran for years and must surely have had an exponential number of people sign up and play compared to the relative few here.

That's good too. And imagine inside the Golden Giza, they could go tacky nuts with over-decorating.

There are no stupid questions... just stupid character names. 😃

Like Twitter, the forums are not the game. 😃 Most people here are dedicated min/maxers - which is fine for them! - but don't care much about discussing concept builds, which is where you might find more flavors of powers being used. Me, I just picked up Bile Spray for my Ill/TA troller because he's annoying and I've never had it before.
