    Hey boss, it's way too hard to dig that trench from point A to point B. Think you could shorten the trench so I can handle it?

     

    -----Are you using the trenching machine? Did you follow the path set through the softer ground? The others don't seem to have this issue.

     

    No, I'm using a gardening trowel and working through the rocky part. However, this ground shouldn't be destroying my trowel after 5 minutes of digging. That's not fun.

     

    -----Hopkins, you're fired.

    I feel like the "self-defeating tactics" doesn't get enough air time.

     

    Sounds like my early 20s.

    We should have more empathy for a dedicated and loyal employee who's fired for what is really no fault of his own.

     

     

    I always assume that when ( I mean, let's be honest, Crey has a butt ton of lawyers) he and the Countess walk out free, she rehires him and makes him sign an NDA to never talk about her also getting her head handed to her.

    This again? Can't we at least mix up Hopkins in the Manticore TF for Jurassik in the Numina TF?

     

    Countess Crey: Hopkins, you're fired!

     

    Jurassik: Graaaaaraagh!

    Inconsiderate team departures

    I doubt it.  The one you're talking about is, surprisingly, a much bigger control freak.  And that doesn't mesh well with PuGs.  If you're gonna sign up to PuG, you need to be chill when shit goes sideways... because it inevitably will.  They can't seem to deal with people not following them and doing exactly as they want in a mission.   And while I do believe in the "your team, your rules" rule, the flipside of that is people can choose NOT to team with a petty dictator.

     

    I usually find a way to politely leave teams run like a micromanaged dictatorship. I mean, running a team is just:

    How far is too far?

    Solo? Most of my characters fly and Afterburner plus Jump Pack equals zooming across the map with no impedance. Same as teaming unless my character or someone else has TT, then it's teleporting for anything longer than say 700 out for the sake of not holding others up.

    From a Dev point of view, how much trouble would it be to make a toggle power or click or something that turns KB to KD without having to slot for it? I have kb to kd slotted in all the yeet powers on my human only PB and it does end up taking set bonuses away for having to slot in that single IO just to not be "that guy" on a team.

    Making *conceptual* sense of Kheldian characters.

    Just my 2 influence, but I have two Kheldians that I've put time and effort into, both 50'd and mostly Incarnated up. One has the origin story of being a warrior from back in Cimerora that led a team against one of the Nictus powered invaders and ended up fusing with a Peacebringer when it came to his aid and together they stopped the Nictus. In the resulting explosion of energy so near one of the mystic temples, he was sent forward in time to present day Paragon. The other willingly joined with a PB in modern times as both were part of the PPD Kheld division, but excelled so far ahead of the others that he was granted Hero status.  Now, not everyone has imagination for days and it can be a struggle to put something other than "I fight crime because it's what I do" and most don't even seem to bother with origin stories anymore (which is a shame because even the not so great ones are still a joy to read and a dying art). The lore behind Khelds does lend itself to fitting into any origin story since they've been in space, in labs, in the past and around magic. As far as motivation? I got nothing as that really is where the imagination of the individual has to come in. Name and costume? If nothing else use one of those name generating sites and work form that. Some of my coolest creations started from a randomly generated name.
