Update on this, currently the stalker version of Attune still accepts hold enhancements, but they don't seem to do anything. (Brute scrapper and tanker versions seem ok.)

On one hand, basically all other MMOs let support characters buff themselves. On the other hand, basically all other MMOs have buffs like "Increase Stamina by 5%" or "Reduce damage taken by 10% (for 20 seconds on a 120 second cooldown)" or shield/overcap HP that's more mechanically similar to healing than buffing. I can't say for sure CoH having actually good buffs is the tradeoff we get for not buffing ourselves. But it might be the tradeoff.

Multiple powers are overreporting their damage and dps in detailed info. Maybe overcounting some conditional damage.

Fixed in build 4 Oh yikes. The brute, stalker, and tanker versions are still toggles instead of clicks. They're dealing a full 1 damage scale every 0.5 seconds, vaporizing a boss fast, but making a racket and running you out of endurance in the process. Intended seems to be the scrapper version, which is 1 damage scale click attack, 4 second recharge, plus a lingering indefinite effect.

On activation, the Sandman's Whisper icon changes from sonicmanipulation_whisper2.texture with a faint ring, to ..._whisper.texture with no ring. After it hasn't been activated in 15 seconds, it changes back to ..._whisper2.texture with a faint ring. This could be confusing, since the power has the same effect - both a resist debuff and a sleep - no matter which icon is showing. sandmans-whisper-icon-change.mp4

Fixed in build 3 Sandman's Whisper uses melee_pvpdamage modifier for pve damage (brute base damage = tanker base damage in pvp, but brutes should do lower base damage in pve)

Hold Duration Enhancements and Sets in Attune These don't seem to do anything, unless I'm missing something? Currently, the brute, stalker, and tanker versions stalker version of Attune accepts hold enhancements and sets. The other versions don't. This shouldn't accept hold enhancements and sets if there's no hold duration to enhance. Sleep Duration Sets in Assassin's Whisper Currently accepts sleep enhancements but not sleep sets. Should probably accept both. Sandman's Whisper (brute, scrapper, tanker) accepts both.

Fixed in build 3 Tanker Deafening Wave has a target cap of 10. It should probably be 16 because of Gauntlet.

Fixed in Build 3 Also happens outside respec. Tanker Sandman's Whisper is set to 18, but should be 24 (secondary tier 7 level).

Weird, I just uploaded some in June! Must've fallen off the $wgFileExtensions whitelist

Minor grammar issue. "There's ... theories" →"There are ... theories".

Adding screenshot, still occurring. This is probably also the root cause of another reported bug (I saw her only aggro +4s after they hit her first, which is normal mob behavior).

While generating this AI image of a DP blaster, I thought to myself, allowing only one Swap Ammo toggle on at a time was a missed opportunity. Obviously, this would be major work for minor game mechanics impact. The min-max wouldn't change: one toggle not two = same as current, presumably. This would be almost entirely for cosmetic flair, to amp up the flavor of having two guns. But I can dream.

Started as a parody of 1990s-2000s tropes. Ended up as one of my favorites. Already retro enough for a comeback?
