Plant Control, Electric Control, or Darkness Control are all strong contenders. They all have a Confuse, an assortment of Hard and/or Semi-Hard Controls on fairly short cooldowns, and generally perform fairly well. Thorny Assault would be good for the -Def if you need to try and get through some To-Hit Debuffs. Psionic Assault's generally pretty strong all the time. Martial Assault if you want to got thematic and throw some Shurikens and toss some Caltrops of your own. I haven't delved very far with Radioactive Assault yet on my own, but I've found it pairs really well with Darkness Control for Cones and Cones and Cones.

So, slightly biased perspective and all, but I think I'm seeing quite a few people calling for three things in particular: - Natural Origin-friendly Control Set (or at least Tech-friendly) - Mixed Damage Type Attack Set ("Elemental," Ranged or Melee) - Some kind of flashy BANG POW Set ( . . . honestly, I think we have a lot of those in-game already, but I can't fault anyone for wanting -more- either) Here's hoping that the foremost efforts are put toward a Natural Control Set. That's been a gaping maw as far as representation since the very beginning of the game.

I gotta say I'm pretty confused as to what you're trying to say too, @Troo.

There has been interest and effort directed toward expanding the colour palette GUI. https://forums.homecomingservers.com/topic/9038-multiple-auras/page/2/?tab=comments#comment-121871 Sadly, this one seems to have quite a bit of overhead preventing it from being easily realized. Here's hoping the continued interest from the players will provide some motivational support to pursue such features!

Similarly, if you're looking for some other options, I'd be happy to provide direction on some alternatives. Such as Maptool. Takes a little more effort to configure, but the open source nature of it means that it has a LOT of power for GMs and players to personalize and customize their experience. It's also entirely free!

uh . . . what's up with ?

I think if rewards were balanced better across all levels (something the Homecoming Team have talked about, but not implemented yet), rather than 50 being decidedly the -only- way to access some content, drops, and massively larger piles of Inf . . . then maybe the progressive gameplay wouldn't feel like such a colossal waste of time for so many players. There isn't a quick solution, of course. At least not one which I've heard of, and I suspect the Devs are in the same boat there. But I certainly think it's valuable to prioritize efforts in to correcting. But then, I'm just being a broken record at this point.

This was our biggest turn out yet! Around 30 people! It was kind of chaotic, but in a good way. Someone also made over 75,000,000 Inf in a single round! All they did was keep the faith in Nigel, and it just so lined up with an award multiplier when Nigel came through for them! Had a whole Nigel Fan Club going at one point, where -everyone- was betting on Nigel. I would like to thank everyone who attended, especially considering the truly massive event which @Shadeknight did this same evening. I hope that everyone who was able to attend either or both of these events had enjoyable experiences all around!

There's an idea! Let's use this thread to rank our favourites from /that/ thread! Number 1: Utility Grenades 2: Munitions 3: Sonic Control (Ranking subject to change without notice.)

Yeah, pretty much what Tyrannical's got there. Not 100% support from me for every little thing in there, but overall that's a very top-notch thread which @Tyrannical has going. Now, of course . . . if we were going to implement an in-game Build your Own Set FEATURE . . . well, THAT could be absolutely stellar! Of course, it would have to be VERY carefully constructed, or we'd just have the Second Coming of Architect Entertainment all over again. I do think it's possible. Feasible, on the other hand . . .

Welcome Home, @XOnicksX, and to your buddy as well. And, yeah. Through all the critiques and suggestions, sometimes it's important to just say: Feedback regarding Homecoming Server is: Keep working hard, Homecoming Team! Your support and dedication has given thousands of people their home back. Thank you.

Or, ideally, add all those animation options without any kind of connection to Origin, so that players can just pick the animations which suit their concept on a personal basis.

When facing a wall, this is what my main villain Commandant Nongratis sees. She's a 5'-nothing human with no super powers (so not even the shortest you could go). Here's what the wall looks like, without moving, after switching to a costume slot that has a maxed-height Huge power armour outfit. So, yeah. Camera position is definitely tied to the character's height.

Hmm . . . that could be good. A Redside zone which is densely populated with tall, gothic towers and tight winding alleyways. Kind of like a mix of Mercy Island and Lower Haven, with towers the height of St. Martial's. Definitely some appeal there . . .

Classic answer to an OR question: "Yes."

Why not make them in this game?

By special request, we'll be having another Rikti Monkey Fight Club Event on Saturday, August 29th, at 7pm Eastern. So, @Saeletra, @Mechanizer, @CU_Krow, @Cellechan, @Muppy, @Denarii, @Ry, @Zafhir, @Dirge of Chaos, @Macchiato, @Pizzicato, @MrCuddles, @Patti, and all the folks who can/want to: Please, spread the word! https://forums.homecomingservers.com/calendar/event/108-rikti-monkey-fight-club-sharkhead-700pm-eastern/ Let the monkey carnage flow!

Welcome Home, @UncouthJoker. If you're interested in roleplay, we've got a whole board for it here on the forums: https://forums.homecomingservers.com/forum/48-roleplaying/ Additionally, in-game, there are a number of Global Channels you can join. The big two which I operate are OOC and RP /chanjoin OOC /chanjoin RP https://forums.homecomingservers.com/topic/1104-rp-and-ooc-global-channels-code-of-conduct/ SuperGroups don't quite fill the same function as they once did, as most users (especially on Everlasting) make personal Groups just so they can build a Base for themself. Base building is now 100% free! Global Channels often fulfil the purpose of being hubs for teaming up with like-minded players. @CU_Krow there, for example, has the Chaos United Group / Global Channel. They tend to be very gameplay-focused, but also frequently run events on Everlasting. As with others, if you ever need a hand, feel free to look me up. My main account is @VileTerror and if I'm online with any of my accounts, then I am DEFINITELY online with my main (I multibox). Catch you around!

As for official Dev support, @Cipher was the one who posted https://forums.homecomingservers.com/topic/15710-online-character-build-browser/ If the sort of features that would allow Cipher's project to double as a roleplay hub could be implemented, then I also think that would be ideal. What do you say, Cipher? Would adding some image uploaded and wiki-style user-content submission systems be within the scope of your current project? How might the community assist you in deploying those sorts of features?

Ah, nope. My sister knows I like popcorn. Carry on!

*glances back and forth with shifty eyes* . . . are you secretly -my- sister Oubli? WHAT? I get hungry . . . a lot.

Smudge, my parents' current kitty: Don't let the exterior floofiness fool you. This cat is a stone cold killer. Took out an entire bunny burrow . . . twice!

I think everything that can crash (Tier 9 or otherwise) should have a Two-Click system. Click it once to get something between 1/10th and 1/5th the usual strength, with no Crash. Click it again while active to bump it up to full potency, but also assure the Crash comes when it expires. We have the tech now for this. Give the players the power of choice. A little extra "oomph" when you need it, or a LOT of extra "-OOMPH!-" when you /really/ need it but with an impending trade-off.

Gusset. Moist. Flange. Panty. Whitebait.

Oubli . . . YOU MONSTER!
