  1. from someone who's been jumped by thugs on the street, attacked by being hit to the ground from the back of the head, and beaten, for lols?, I can tell you from lived experience - fighting does not always involve knowing how to kick or punch. unfortunately I am neither tough, nor can I weave. PS - i will never go back to seattle, saw crime there you wouldn't believe, children in 'youth' uniforms, prostitutes in chains (i shit you not) at midday, hard drug use rampant, visible, violence. a cess pit, mismanaged clearly, and policemen with tattoo'd swasticas on their arms. military surplus or otherwise obtained non-civilian grade vehicles being paraded about. people buying SWAT vehicles that were somehow for sale. a man on a bus saluting the nth reich, and me glancing annoyed, only to be whispered to to keep my eyes down. I will never go back to seattle. a VERY long way from the nation's capital, is one way to put it.
  2. my trade route stayed for the duration I played, maybe there's still a little pocket prompto.
  3. well curses! id thought it was who discovered it first, and although massive in scale, in play youd certainly did come across names that stuck from other players past escapades. maybe the changed it, its been a time.
  4. crumbs and stars! ive never heard the word milksop before. its probably deeply offensive? its probably a euphamism for effeminate in a diminutive way? milksop, one to remember, with poltroon, 'nancy boy' , and whatever a 'pantywaist' is. lacking in leadership (as historically rejected as so, this crafted a manner of means to an end in social effect. weird words in a twist, huh?) at my boarding school, people used to refer to others as 'feebs'. i had no idea at the time, it wasnt a sentiment i would not express as it was clearly cruel; that that was remnant of genetic selection of the wrong kind. such sorrows, this world. and infected of our children. so sweeps waves, shapes, hate, and Man in his caves. harrumph. if i ever overburn toast, i like to, if i have it, dip it in the head of unshaken full milk. its delicious. The name Milksop is thought to derive from the Middle English word "milksop," which was "a piece of bread soaked in milk." As a name, it may have evolved from a nickname for a "spiritless" man. It has also been suggested that it mays have been an occupational name for a farmer who dealt with milk products.
  5. well, its more about the presumption of an adjudication, but you do you.
  6. oh I really don't, nor do i wish to - you seem slimy - and thank you.
  7. yin is great, and would be fun in a hard mode. you have characters that are slotted enough to be dangerous. everyone brings a spectrum of powers at effective 25ish if theyre over level. theres mobs to the side rooms in final map, that are easy xp to enjoy (just force the issue if youre a tank and grab them, you only have ~30s until the cutscene plays on entry because someone is trying to get back to lfg again). it doesnt make you kill n mobs in every zone through 35 (except hollows) they could turn on the reactor bubble thinger mechanic.
  8. sure, but given druthers would you not rather have a free power choice to pick up: any given other pp available? fire breath on fire blast? black hole on dark affinity? inertial reduction on kin? thaw on thermal? clarity on sonic? or room for the rez in some builds? or dip med pool on a healer? repulsion field toggles? personal force field? a good couple dozen others that end up being sidelined because you need to get then unbar kick/punch? (better than 'kick' - popular dc universe super hero raven defends self using signature light magicks)
  9. there are at least ~70 solar system in No Mans sky where EVERYTHING is named prompto. planets, station, plants, animals... i wonder if anyone passed them over the years. (popular marvel super hero - thor)
  10. but its boring. to have to do it every time. after hundreds. its boring.
  11. am i eating too much candy?
  12. good breakdown, but id prefer not to be forced to take it. hence, power reordering or level-barred only but free choice, or allowing 3 (so tough) and weave only needing 1x.
  13. it doesnt matter. opportunity cost IS a reduction in build variety. the whole line of thinking here for pool reordering is that one takes kick/punch as a brawl replacement, or simply unbars it. it is an punitive cost. the same line of thinking had us taking leap-higher or moves-fast in fitness on the way to health/stamina. i think theres almost universal agreement that that going inherent grsatly improved build variety. its rubbish when your thinking, ok next 6 levels are the requisite tough/weave get, better get it iver with. that opportunity cost can be equated to lost enjoyment in the leveling process paid as sacrifice to get a thing. thats not fun, thats grindy and crappy and leaves you at the end with unbarred kick/punch. no fun. no fun!
  14. it does the opposite, it means people will take skippable powers, or try another pool they cannot. theres nothing but an increase in build variety by removing pool preselects, or getting kick punch up above tough weave odering wise.
  15. it looks like serious no mans sky. i hope its good.
  16. rad blast is pretty crappy, its ok on a defender with something like poison. elec manip is decent, I find.
  17. hard? yes vote! its about fun, options, and the fact that tough/weave are masked by a crappy brawl replace. sorcery lets you at a combo teavel power. hasten. (full stop) its legacy biting us and people decrying any change suggestion as power creep. let vines grow over it, I say. its supposed to be fun. what are you balancing for? what content needs kick in the way of tough/weave? it doesnt, and all i hear is belligerent clinging to what is in place. (popular marvel super hero) -- honoroit, the power creeper
  18. i think another implementation, thunderspy, kept the level reqs, but removed the prereqs. a fish is a fish, no matter how you skin it, but theres options in that.
  19. its s brawl replacement you can slip in, so sure. if you have a melee chain without gaps, dont bother
  20. for me, the animation will play, but cancel at its end. the aiming animation, NOT the emission of the power at target, it stops before that, immediatly before in fact. but its never consumed the cooldown. it does show as activated, but thats because i entered the interrupt period for slow snipe, then for some reason (likely edge of range) it cancels. it would be nice if it cancelled immediately, but again, i think when this is going on im at the edge and a mob hitbox flickered out of it. that or i wasnt quite stopped when i initiated the slow snipe. never seen the cooldown consumed, that means you casted it.
  21. whips, fulminating electric'ey, plasma, spencers gift or no. repeated animations if needs be, fire and brimstone, snicks and cracks! yes to whips, kupo.
  22. but some are far more 'balanced' than others - the fancy ones like sorcery (1 power 1st choice gives tp AND fly). would you take hasten if it were pick 3? its core everywhere. my point prior being, kick is unbar filler. what would freeing a power choice mid levels do to a character balance wise. not a lot, maybe let them pick another pp power elsewhere, or a skippable from their primary/secondary. balance is more around the slotting. type by set placement enablement, and of course benefits brought to the power. so a 1x slot kick replaced with xyz... no, its just a quality of life improvement id rather have an auto that upgrades brawl in place of kick/punch-or-whats-it-called.
  23. can tough and weave be pick 1 and 2? kick is pure filler. we got all kinds of power tiers changed around for AT sets.
  24. inherent fighting pool, this one has it. just wanna build flexible, not pattern 3x choices to it, and unbar 'kick'.
  25. fighting pool is near mandatory on a whole lot of builds. in that respect, having it like fitness would be nice.
