Ok. So it won’t be allowed to be perma. Got it. ...well, I thought I’d at least ask for it. ..I still want it perma, tho..... 😉

Willpower?

My Dull Pain has a recharge of 1:23 without any clickies up like Gaea’s or Unrelenting. Never saw that problem of people dropping. Every time I saw a death while looping unstoppable, there was always damage right before I dropped. I had capped resistances, but the hits were so hard and frequent. I still had to retooled everything too. Including “Unyielding Stance”... 😕

That might take a while to fix, but I’ve always found tier 9 defensive powers to all be very useful. ESPECIALLY unstoppable. I just have to use inspirations while I wait the 40 seconds or so to recharge. Even when hen you have it “looped” with Burnout, you still have a crash! plus, if I’m still dying from time to time in Unstoppable, I don’t think having it up constantly will make me a “push button” invulnerable character...

Hi! i heard through FB that I might be able to make a suggestion about game mechanics here. I sincerely hope I’ve posted this suggestion in the right place. That being said: Unstoppable has had a hard cap at around 195 seconds since issue 3. Yes. Issue 3.. This cap was implemented to be in-line with Enhancement Diversification. It made sense to apply this cap because at the time (now my memory might be a bit foggy, but..) over 50% of the active characters were Invulnerability builds; both scrappers and tankers. At the time, it made sense, because of its potency when combined with Invincibility, and the lack of actual game content, so that number stuck out. Please know that this change was applied in the same environment that also had a defense cap of 99%... there were a lot of imbalances throughout the game. Invincibility has since been balanced, but no change to unstoppable..... ... why? Many other tier 9 defensive sets (and I think all) BESIDES Unstoppable can be “perma” - or “looped”. Why is that? Because most people dont don’t know the game’s history and most people at the time were too angry and didn’t read Statesman’s basis or reasoning behind the patch. Keep in mind, Statesman is an Invuln/SS tanker... So, it did not behoove him to nerf himself. His post explained the developers’ reasoning for issue 3 changes/balancing. Which was an awful lot of patches, power sets, and expansions ago... 🤭 I’d also like to add that the issue 3 patch was the beginning of the end for the game. Every time a players looses effectiveness of their build, and ultimately the character’s performance, the game experience is diminished. Some even stopped playing entirely. With all of the “silliness” Homecoming has allowed us player characters to have, why is it that the biggest nerfing in gaming I’ve ever seen is still implemented? In conclusion, City of Heroes/Villains has evolved beyond the need for this ultra-conservative power limit. It was applied for a different game in a different time, when the game desperately needed balancing. CoX no has longer needs this for balance. If anything, it would likely bring some players back to the game. Please be the bold innovators behind the first game to ever have “Invulnerable” in a power set, and remove this Unstoppable recharge limit. I promise you will be happily surprised you did.
