I know animations are extremely difficult and time consuming due to tools. I don't want to seem demanding. But who thinks this trope should be introduced to Homecoming? ME! Anybody else?

In D&D 4e there's a concept of minions. Minions do the same damage as a normal NPC. The players still have to waste actions attacking them, because they can be dangerous... but they have 1hp. You know when you see those ARPGs where hoards of enemies get easily one-shotted? Could the City of Heroes engine handle this kind of thing? I mean there's already Gang War ... I played the Praetoria arc and it feels like SO MANY times there are occurrences when there could have been ghoul hoards, instead it's just a few and they aren't quite one-shottable. It feels like a missed opportunity to make the players feel like EPIC superheroes! So my suggestion is another class of super-weak enemy in the style of D&D 4e Minions, which should be deployed in great numbers. Not in every mission, ofc, but in some (especially timed ones, perhaps, for drama).

My points would be; What archetype are you on? Are you supposed to be standing within the boss' attack range? You're in a team of eight, that's a LOT of heroes vs just one poor enemy. If he takes down a squishy or two, that makes it feel more balanced. A challenging boss can sometimes be as fun as sending enemies flying everywhere as you ironically one-shot a path through swathes of them. Sometimes.

That certainly sounds super-heroic.

Mine are specifically Russian composers, a reference to a certain military force, which is/was, ironically, named after a German composer.

Please can we have single shoulder mantle cape on the other side, so we can have weapon on back as well as this little cape with minimal clipping?

Brokerage/Rent, then? No need to supply a service when you can supply the facilitation of a service.

I don't know about you, but if I'm set on fire, I'm either doing Stop, Drop and Roll, stripping off my clothes, patting it or running to a fountain. Why do NPCs run slowly sideways when they're in a fire aura instead?

Nah. I don't even know what to click to go to a quoted post. I know it's possible, though. Thanks, but this is another feature I won't use or remember ><

Negatrov WON the Stargazer Loung Costume Contest yesterday!

Any set can be worst if you don't take a 3 year degree in Mids Reborn.

What's the method?

I didn't know Michiyo was a dev on another server. For anybody who is unfamiliar with them, they made the current (awesome) modding system.

There is so much free teleport in the game and athletic run and, sprint and, fitness and, free jump pack There's no need for any travel powers. You even get a free jetpack these days.

Quoted for truth. I really think the downsides aren't worth the upsides. Also, because they are so situational and dangerous, I forget to press the button at the right time, most of the time. That's why I try not to take temporary boost powers.

If anybody kicked me from a TF, I'd immediately put them on my blacklist.

You could make advertisement posters for the billboard poster textures tool CoHSplasher! 🙂

I fixed it for you.

RIP Steve Kille, Bassist of Dead Meadow. He died in April, but I just found out. Dead Meadow - What Needs Must Be Such a brilliant solo. Waaaa waaaa waaa!

I have to give a big THANKS to the devs for the recent addition of glowy visors and goggles. These are awesome!

Kinda rude. I like it!

Steven Effing Toast!

RIP Steve Albini Bush - Swallowed

Making them vulnerable, like they used to be before IOs... well, nothing like THAT weak, ofc.

Perhaps Tough and Weave should be made into Epic Powers for non-melee classes, instead of pool powers for everybody. As I understand the pool powers they are supposed to be either; something you can't get from any regular archetype powersets (Fly, Assault, Maneouvers) or something you can't get from YOUR archetype's powersets - e.g. Defense on a Controller. Why should melee classes be able to beef up in an "incredibly potent" manner (your words) something that's key to their class using pool powers? It's not like there is something that can significantly boost control or blasting in the pool powers, or is it? Out of interest; were you against Villain archetypes being available to Heroes and Hero Archetypes available to villains? Were you against making Fitness pool inherent? Were you against the S.T.A.R.T. vendor items being available to everybody? Were you against the locked costume parts (witches hat, cape, aura etc) being available in the costume creator?
