I'm generally a "concept first, build second" person so it's going to happen eventually, but so far I've avoided directly remaking the exact same thing in terms of AT/primary/secondary. I've come close, though -- I have an Invuln/SS tanker and a SS/Invuln brute, I have an Invuln/EM tanker and an EM/Invuln scrapper, that kind of thing.

I probably shouldn't get on this horse again, but here I go, getting on this horse again: Ask about piano lessons, and everyone will tell you how they taught themselves to play by ear. Actually, scratch that -- they'll tell you that they taught themselves to play by ear, but how they did that will never enter into the discussion. I've asked basically this same question -- how does a person actually learn to make their own builds? -- several times, and unfortunately nobody seems to be able/willing/whatever to give a more specific answer than "IDK figure it out, n00b." By and large, the responses you're going to get in this thread will be that it's easy, that you shouldn't need anyone's help (or that it's impossible for anyone to help you), and that the best thing to do is just sit down in front of a blank screen on Mids and screw around for two or three hundred hours until you eventually blunder into perfection. How you're expected to know when you've achieved that perfection without respeccing 90 times in-game is anyone's guess. You'll get vague advice like "build for defense," or "dominators want a lot of recharge," but no specifics regarding what targets to shoot for or how to actually hit them; feel free to prove me wrong here, folks. To a point this is because making a build is more art than science. But only to a point. Hard numbers do exist, and while there's no "best way" to build, there are most definitely good ways and bad ways. Not that I, personally, could tell you what those are. And not for lack of trying. You're a monkey, here's your typewriter, go write Hamlet. And if you can't do that, here's a copy of Hamlet that someone else wrote, just cross out any lines you don't like and write in your own.

Another totally sane thread! Keep up the good work, buddy.

There's an in-game notification on their character select screen when the character is approaching the cutoff, and a different one once that line is crossed. As well as the several years of being notified on the forums, the Discord, and the launcher that this policy would be going into effect at an unspecified point in the future, plus being notified in all three of those places more than a month ago that that the policy would be going into effect at a specified point in the future. At least some of which, frankly, they would almost certainly have seen if they were still playing the game at all. I honestly can't imagine how there could possibly be any more notification. You want HC to send a certified letter? I mean, if I don't pay my phone bill for 90 days they'll give my number to someone else without checking with me first. If it helps, in the state of Rhode Island where Paragon City is located, "intangible unclaimed property" is considered legally abandoned after three years, and the vast majority of names freed up by this policy going into effect have been sitting unused, at least currently, for closer to five years now.

It's not every time by any means, but often if a door is further than I feel like going or someplace I'd have to zone several times to get to ("report to the security chief of the deepest part of the Mariana Trench, he needs you to patrol a 37,000 square mile section of the innermost ring of the planet Saturn and defeat 900 members of an enemy group that only spawns there in pairs, twice a year, as either bosses +9 to your level or minions -15 to it"), I'll skip teleports altogether. I just call the contact back like... "nah. Just mark this one completed and I'll hit the next one instead. Thanks!"

Given the source of inspiration, a name that sounds very stupid on purpose might actually suit the character.

I believe you're looking for the Suggestions & Feedback forum, this post is where players come to ask other players for advice on costume design.

Tick Grayson? Though I suppose that would make him a ward. A Burt Ward! (But seriously, I'm seeing Ted Kord Blue Beetle in that design more than Batman or the Tick.)

Is there a particular name, origin story or aesthetic beyond "tech" that you're looking for? There's a definite Wild West feel to what you have already -- are you wanting to preserve that?

I sadly don't have Gargoyle, but I do have Gargouille -- the French spelling, pronounced largely the same and arguably more thematic since a lot of the more famous gargoyle-having locations in the world (Notre Dame) are in France -- which I'm doing... well, not nothing with, but little enough that I could be persuaded to let it go.
