definitely. Ideally dev effort applied to add to the game is preferred. Not remove. This is the way. Granted, sometimes things get broken or create an issue and need to be addressed but again, ideally, these are infrequent.

New thread. ..that's my bad Back on topic: Zepp I am curious about #3 and #6, could you expand on those? Definitely yes to #8.

Sometimes there are clues in the clues.. "Before we continue, a caveat: Some of the changes and plans mentioned below are either very early in development or still purely conceptual. Some of them will likely not make the cut and either change greatly or be scrapped entirely." reverse text: ".yleritne depparcs eb ro yltaerg egnahc rehtie dna tuc eht ekam ton ylekil lliw meht fo emoS .lautpecnoc ylerup llits ro tnempoleved ni ylrae yrev rehtie era woleb denoitnem snalp dna segnahc eht fo emoS :taevac a ,eunitnoc ew erofeB" run through paraphrase tool: "Before we tend to continue, a caveat: a number of the changes and plans mentioned below are either terribly early in development or still strictly abstract. a number of them can probably not build the cut and either modification greatly or be scrapped entirely." different reverse text: ".entirely scrapped be or greatly change either and cut the make not likely will them of Some .conceptual purely still or development in early very either are below mentioned plans and changes the of Some :caveat a ,continue we Before" run through paraphrase tool again: "Before we have a tendency to continue, a caveat: a number of the changes and plans mentioned below are either terribly early in development or still strictly abstract. a number of them can possible not create the cut and either modification greatly or be scrapped entirely." every third word: "Before we continue, a caveat: Some of the changes and plans mentioned below are either very early in development or still purely conceptual. Some of them will likely not make the cut and either change greatly or be scrapped entirely." every fourth word: "Before we continue, a caveat: Some of the changes and plans mentioned below are either very early in development or still purely conceptual. Some of them will likely not make the cut and either change greatly or be scrapped entirely." maybe it's a block cypher: "Before we continue, a caveat: Some of the changes and plans mentioned below are either very early in development or still purely conceptual. Some of them will likely not make the cut and either change greatly or be scrapped entirely."

I could see this working. Or maybe even if it was just the Alpha that worked below 50. Sort of a compromise.

only if it breaks line of sight

men's scarfs/neck ties are dapper.

yeah this is only at level 50 though.

@BurtHutt Thats not a bad idea and may be in the works. But just fyi - it's a long road. Not to side track this thread but simply complying with rules and regulations that have come out since the game retired.. eesh could be a big effort. In other news - Re-reading the page 6 notes it appears some of the things on peoples lists are in progress. Woot!

Hehe. I get what you are saying. And I imagine you get what I'm saying too. If Super Jump did fail sometimes or Fly just stopped working mid flight. That would be hilarious. (but there might be torches and pitchfolks)

Not sure when this was fixed. THANK YOU❣️❣️

something stood out as missing in: Anyone able to shed some light on Dark Melee developments?

"Before we continue, a caveat: Some of the changes and plans mentioned below are either very early in development or still purely conceptual. Some of them will likely not make the cut and either change greatly or be scrapped entirely."

brawl for-the-win maybe brawl & kick so there is some variety

..but should assassin strike miss more than other attacks? Randomness is great, but somethings should work. Super jump should not just fail. nor buildup, nor toggles, nor personal force field.. at least not without some additional input to the formula. it's all math even if we don't like math

Soooo... "No matter what they do, people will be disappointed for one reason or another." Well that's not a great outlook.

It would be interesting to see how Regeneration compares to Resistance in regards to damage mitigation.

Old Energy Transfer Black Market price fix Hamidon Origin enhancement convertors Ala Carte Respec (aka unslotter for powers & slots) Player Created Content porting to in-game content Ala Carte Pool Powers Incarnates impact on pre-50 content Quality of life improvements for player created content New player focus (forums & in-game link to) Challenge Mode (unending wave of enemies with increasing difficulty. Bonus: a leader board that resets bi-weekly) Wish list: More mini games (favorite: Battle for Siren's Call) Pinball machines that work We could easily check some off my list right away and move on to the harder stuff. Please confirm: Old Energy Transfer imminent Black Market fix in the works Ala Carte Respec the page 6 gift from the amazing devs. Hamidon Origin enhancement convertors "we're trying! there's a list!" wake up Troo, wake up

I've always considered the Code of Conduct as follows: I've been warned, if I violate the rules even unintentionally I need to live with the consequences. If I violate the rules a second time, I should not expect an opportunity to do it a third time. Other topics: It is awesome that there is a Dev's Choice for player created content. It shines a spotlight on an amazing tool we have access to and it's uses beyond that-which-shall-not-be-named. Becoming a Game Master - just kidding...

Bad Jimmy

A change is coming. If it's already complete in the works, we'll get to test it and provide feedback. That does not make the thoughts shared in this thread less relevant. There may be some foreshadowing sprinkled in this thread, you be the judge.

Trading one aspect of the set for another seems to be a sticking point. Choices are a big part of COX. If we take Maneuvers and Weave there may not be room for Hasten. If we cap defensive we may not be able to get recharge where I want or have extra slots for procs. If we take all of Dark armours toggles.. we are gonna have endurance issues to deal with. Many (myself included) like the simple, single target, hard hitting nature of Energy Melee. This is why we play it. We don't expect it to compete with AoE proc monsters. That's a choice. If there is no trade off, really there's not problem. (other than potential power creep) If you are giving me the old Energy Transfer and goosing Whirlwind and/or Stun that's awesome, let's do it. But that's not what we are hearing. Bringing up the term 'balance' and Energy Melee is a bit disingenuous. It's a strawman argument to support a preferred re-work. There is only upside, it can't really go down without malice. Not all sets have to be even. Some folks actually like playing sets that are perceived to be less than. Not all sets have to be reskinned versions of the same equation. It's okay to have some variety & outliers. Titan Weapons numbers are great, I'm still not playing it. That choice does not effect my 'fun'.

Ha! brrrrrrr. I thought there was a time you'd cut someone before letting them touch the precious. (figuratively of course)

To be clear: I prefer not to nerf things, that's part of the irony of my writing it. Power creep is always a big concern of mine, not because I don't want folks to be more powerful but because it does impact so much more than is obvious. The ripple effect is really difficult to anticipate. The current meta has some issues. Solving them is more whack-a-mole brain surgery as opposed to one definitive silver bullet.

checks hell's temperature..
