I know people that play CoH that are still on dial-up in this day and age of instant gratification.

Don't forget Captain Sweatpants, in that same comic shop, with his Statesman T-shirt...and normal sweatpants.

Some of those guys can, apparently, pull off drag quite well.

Sniper Rose (Assault Rifle/Devices) plays very much like a blasting Stalker.

My Illusion/FF Controller use FB, Air Superiority, and Repulsion Field to "lock down" multiple bosses, while the PA and Phantasm took care of distracting the rest of the mob aggro'd on an 8 man team during a Revenant arc run on live. I found FB worth it for that character. But then, that controller was also an in-your-face controller that could tank if the team was lacking a tank. A Conscranker, if you will. Yea, I dealt with a lot of scrapper-lock with him.

Personally, I'm happy with Force Bolt the way it is. So, I guess my answer would be, zero additional knockdowns?

Which version of the toggle "version" is what Troo was asking. There had been several tweaks to IH long before it was changed to a click.

I hate to point this out to you, but, every online game in the entirety of the universe, is an unfinished game. Even some games that aren't Multiplayer, and can be played offline, are unfinished. (updates, you know) There is always something being added (how many expansions were added to WoW?) or tweaked. And contrary to some people's feelings, balance is a necessary thing for the extended life of a game. Especially an MMO. So, yeah. you might want to wait a few more decades or centuries before looking into playing CoH some more. Seeing as it's still unfinished. Oh, and that other game you might want to play is also unfinished. And that one too and that one ...and that one as well.

Oddly enough, I play solely on Reunion and have never visited the Reunion section of the forums. 🤔

Isn't that already available with (free) server transfers? Granted, it isn't as convenient as, "Let me activate my cloak of shard passage" or anything...

Don't the Hellions have the Girlfriend from Hell? And, I do believe that I've seen (and defeated) female members of both the Hellions and Skulls.

In general, I tend to agree that any specific AT should not be necessary for average content. Back on live, it was thought, more so than now, that Tanks were sorely needed in most content. As I pointed out earlier, Repeat Offenders disagreed, and then went on to demonstrate why they were correct in their disagreement. I'm sure that a group of 8 Masterminds could do the same thing...if you could find 8 computers that wouldn't break down and cry at the mere though of 48 Mastermind pets plus all the buff and debuff powers being active at the same time. Not to mention any other pets the MM had available to toss out. I know my computer would flip me off, and have a heart attack. And probably burst into flame just out of spite.

Repeat Offenders, on live, were of the opinion that no AT was necessary ( with the possible exception of Defenders when teamed together in groups of 8 ) I tend to agree with them. Just recently, my Widow has been teaming with a Scrapper and a Blaster. Before that, my Controller was teaming with a Blaster and a Defender. No Tank, no Brute.

The problem with your suggestion is that it would leave Dark Miasma, Storm Summoning and Trick Arrow out in the cold for Defenders. Dark and Storm have only a single power (each) that buffs allies, Trick Arrow lacks even that. So, they would have no benefit for being on Defenders. That's not even mentioning the secondary effects of the Blast sets.

The way to convince yourself to make (and play) a Corruptor is easy. Step 1 : Buy a goldfish. Step 2 : create a villain to kidnap the goldfish. Step c : Have said villain threaten to feed the goldfish to their cat if you don't create and play a corruptor.

It could be similar to how Captain Mar-Vell became Captain Marvel. Someone asked him who he was, and he replied "Power, creep!" So, he was forever more called Power Creep.

Hmmm... Now I need to make a corruptor and call him Warren Debuffet. probably have to go with sonic in there somewhere. Or, maybe, a thugs (gangwar)/(debuffing secondary) mastermind

Ni!

I'm not sure if anyone informed you, but I noticed that Sprint and Hurdle, when moused over, were showing, a couple of the Prestige sprints instead of the basic Sprint and Hurdle. I don't know if anyone else had noticed since I (and possibly they) rarely slot anything into those powers. Hurdle shows Prestige Power Dash and Sprint shows Prestige Power Slide. there also doesn't seem to be powers showing for Prestige Power Dash or Slide either. Could just be that both Sprint and PPS are taking up the same location on the GUI. Anyway, just thought you'd like to know.

Well, Mr. Arcane Salvage #3 has to have a place to store all that salvage...

If I recall correctly, at least early in the live version, each AT had its own version of the different power-sets. A change to the Blaster Dark blast set had no effect on the Defender (or Corruptor) Dark Blast set. Made balancing things much more difficult for the Devs at the time...and probably still makes it difficult for the Devs today.

I blame Lambchop. 😋

I do not recall CoH having that functionality. However, if I'm not mistaken, HeroStats did allow you to keep track of things of that nature.

Did Lambchop sing the song that never ends?

Well, maybe "Don't try thi AHHHH" might work? Then run around on fir all the time...
