With what you wrote, doesn't the math work out to Power Blast individually being less than each Boxing and Kick even without the +fighting synergy? You posted damage and recharge. Power Blast 59.28/8s = 7.41 which is less than Boxing 23.25/2.5s = 9.3 Math.. Some ArcanaTime DPA / DPS / attack chain numbers would likely be more relevant to your point. While Boxing, Kick and Brawl may not be as relevant to this incarnation of the game. There was a time when they were useful.. but I digress. I understand wanting M0R3! I just disagree that pool powers should exceed primary, secondary or epic powers. There is a lot of nuance built into the game with implicit trade offs.

@ChefJackButler Thank you for saying something. The described behavior is not tolerated. A quick note to a GM at the time would result in action. To reach GMs use Menu > Support IP addresses aren't difficult to track.

Rubbish Other items: Aid self is really sloooow. I totally use stealth pre 50. I don't love having to take another power to get phase shift but it is what it is. I'm not in favor of giving access to an additional pool in a build. Trade offs are part of the game. New pools would be interesting. Should we be able to create builds that rely heavily of the pool powers?

The pool powers provide a lot of flexibility and flavor. It's tough to say "just ignore the min/maxers" they may have some good points but their use of the pool powers may be different from the average player or the role playing folks.

I talked myself into rolling a dual blades.. and then deleted it. Couldn't do staff fighting even though I'd like to. I am not in favor of any more combo system type mechanics.

Siren's Call: Villainous Glory Figuring out how to teleport into the hero base/hospital to take vengeance upon those who would camp the zone in perceived safety.

Yeah this appears to be some type of "improvement" or bug.

St Martial for look and feel. Sharkhead for the poor miner strike (closest thing to a stream of non stop targets) Siren's Call for the evenly matched Longbow vs Arachnos zone battle where one hero or villain can actually turn the tide.

Oh noooo 'Cat' has been discarded?

I like seeing more animal faces in the thread. This is Kazar

Gave the ole energy/kin a new look: Tip: After uploading a picture, we can resize it by double clicking on the image.

that bar code clearly says 'nerf regen' it's just written in supermarket computer language. (I wonder what it would take to make that an actual easter egg)

so many directions that could be chosen.. Dominator with electric and energy powers Stalker with staff fighting that can't be hit, can wave their hand in an enemies face to disappear after trapping them in an electric prison. Scrapper.. Blaster.. ..and on and on.

Please keep the politics out of the escape that the game provides. While appreciating the sentiment, this could be perceived as trolling folks of a different opinion and could quickly devolve into a topic where things are said that then have to be policed by moderators. -peace

excellent

Anticipate at some point a minor adjustment, mostly for the better. Soon™ = unlikely and definitely not without an extended testing and notification period.

Nah.. While some number may be taking a break, trying out new things, or victims of lockup ADD; the forum new registrations and online users has not plummeted. Folks come and go c'est la vie. Kudos and many a thank you to the Homecoming team. You are appreciated.

Ooo don't forget sorting by archetype, powerset, alignment, gender/body type,.. It's a good request that had been around but never percolated to the top. The same functionality would be great for salvage, storage, recipes, black market, anywhere thing pile up. c'est la vie

whoa whoa whoa.. what's wrong with battle ax? Lots of knockup & down plus an inherent hit bonus. It is effective. Not as mush aoe as many, and no wierd mechanic. It's simple limiting factor is similar to MA where it's damage is lethal. (MA is smashing)
