Force Redux

As long as you have T3 lore/destiny slotted you'll be +3 total vs. Incarnate content. Others clicking on you will see it. When in doubt read the info on your lore/destiny, it will mention the level shifts. It's a display thing.

I would love that, if they had Stealth outside of battle! yes!

I don't remember specifically how I heard about the game but I ended up joining a super group that had formed even before beta. The City of Heroes website at time was still showing independent power selections, before the power sets and archetypes. So pretty early in the design phase; of course things would change much by the time of launch. The whole superhero concept and the idea of lots of customization was very appealing. My previous experience with MMOs was EverQuest, Dark Age of Camelot, Asheron's Call, and a few others. So I started with beta and continued until sunset. I never knew about the secret server, but as soon as I got wind that it was opening up I joined 6 years ago. I don't even remember how I heard about homecoming. I stay for a couple of reasons, one, the game content itself is very easy to fit a lot of different concepts in: want to play a vampire cyborg? How about a punisher style mercenary? Or a golden age flying superhero? Plus the game lends itself very easily to casual gameplay compared to many other games where grinding and elitism suck the enjoyment. I've done that before no desire to do that again. The other major reason I stay is because of the community on the forums and live in the game. Even though I PUG 100% of the time and haven't been in an SG since live, it's overall a very welcoming and supportive group of people, with fantastic ideas and great imaginations, ready to lend a hand to others. I played in many many MMO communities, and even after the snap and the relaunch, City of Heroes community still is tops.

Evolution in progress... Interesting....

Having played plant since 2019 here in homecoming before and after the patch, yep two Powers got tuned down, but that does not make them useless, they're still quite valuable in my toolkit. But rather than leaning very heavily on those two tools, every power now is valuable and gives a wide a variety of options to problems. Honestly, my plant nature is still my favorite controller compared to the many many other level 50 plus controllers I have. I realize this is entirely subjective, but not all of us are hating on the changes. I understand why they're needed and I also understand we were given back more than we lost. My controller can still reliably solo +2-3 x 8 farm content and brings a lot to a team.

Welcome hawk 🙂🙂👋🏻

Yep, just checked in the CC. Use the Quilted Jacket/sleeves. If you want a hood try Circle of Thorns, or a knit cap (hat) for the winter look. You can even add a scarf via the cloak section.

Fare well, hero. /em hold torch

A bittersweet story, my condolences. /em hold torch

Sorry to hear this. The name is familiar. /em hold torch

Unfortunately power customization doesn't directly change the costume of the pets You could try to the quilted jacket? Is that available for the female body type?

Oh I like that

Here's also an image for my COH character Skadi Frostdottir, an ice/ice stalker, also via the ChatGPT 4o Image Generator Pro. It did an amazing job recreating her costume from in-game when I fed it the image of her on Mercy Island (yes, it did a rare (nowadays) and weird thing with the left hand, but forgivable with the rest of the image I got... I can run it again to correct later):

I really like using my ChatGPT subscription, three is a great model in their library, Image Generator Pro, that gives me fantastic results. Here's one of my conversions from a Bing image that didn't work with what I wanted, but ChatGPT did an excellent job once I had it run an analysis first: This is my character, a Yellow Wizard, which I had for D&D style campaign that never launched.

Ever drunk Baileys from a shoe?

Lol... OMG memories

Quoted for emphasis 👍🏻

This is just awesome 😄

@JJDrakken JJ thanks for your build posts... I've used them in the past to help my with my own building. 👍🏻

Costume slots all filled, half the roster never capped— dreams in character select.

Very nice!

Too much guild drama and I keep having to PUG.

One does not simply walk in into Mordor generally discuss this game

City of Heroes homecoming helped me save money on my car insurance.
