Archery Mastery

Surprised this hasn't been seen yet as it seems so basic for tons of concepts, mainly something I realized when playing Assassin's Creed and my guy is able to wield an Axe, Shield, and a Bow!

 

This ancillary pool will be available to all AT's except for Blasters, Corruptors, and Defenders.... mainly because I didn't know what to put in at the moment that wouldn't be covered by Archery or Trick/Tactical arrow lol

@Galaxy Brain looks good so far! I'm curious about the rationale behind some of these choices, not that I see anything wrong, but always good to get a feel for what direction people are aiming for

[CrudeVileTerror]

Have we got Arrow Control up in this thread yet?   I feel like we should have an Arrow Control Set.  Or would that not be Eco-Friendly enough, since we'd have to basically invent every Power in the Set from mostly-scratch to avoid stepping on Trick Arrow's toes?   I mainly just want it for Dominators.

I mainly tried to just eyeball the common setup for each AT's ancilliaries and pair up what i think would fit from the available archery sets haha. I think ranged shot fits for a lot of ATs for the theme of using a bow for that one, special shot on a far off target, but otherwise it was just sort of ad lib tbh.

I think the PPD stuff would work better as a set of APPs.

Agreed I think a majority of the praetorian factions should be pool powers for those who start off on preatorian Earth.

[Player2]

Here's something to have fun with...  open to criticism and suggestions, of course.

 

Toxic Mastery

 

Scrapper/Stalker

• Explosive Vomit:  Ranged Light DoT (Toxic) + AoE Special (Foes close to target vomit, brief Disorient) -- use animation from Poison -> Neurotoxic Breath + Vahzilok vomit
• Nausea:  Close Range (Foe Hold, -ToHit, -Dmg) -- use animation from Poison -> Neurotoxic Breath
• Projectile Vomit:  Ranged Moderate DoT (Toxic, Foe -Regen, -Recovery) -- use animation from Vahzilok zombies
• Strong Stomach:  Toggle: Self Resist (Toxic, Regen Debuff)
• Vomit Spray:  Cone Moderate DoT (Toxic, Foe -Regen) -- use animation from Poison -> Neurotoxic Breath

 

Brute/Tanker

• Paralyzing Vomit:  Ranged Light DoT (Toxic) + Foe (Immobilize) -- use animation from Poison -> Neurotoxic Breath
• Nausea:  Close Range (Foe Hold, -ToHit, -Dmg) -- use animation from Poison -> Neurotoxic Breath
• Projectile Vomit:  Ranged Moderate DoT (Toxic, Foe -Regen, -Recovery) -- use animation from Vahzilok zombies
• Strong Stomach:  Toggle: Self Resist (Toxic, Regen Debuff)
• Vomit Slick:  Targeted AoE (Foe Knockdown, -ToHit) -- use animation from Poison -> Neurotoxic Breath with ground effect at targeted area for targets to slip and fall in until they're out of it

 

Controller

• Projectile Vomit:  Ranged Moderate DoT (Toxic, Foe -Regen, -Recovery) -- use animation from Vahzilok zombies
• Sicken:  Toggle:  Minor DoT (Toxic), Foe (-ToHit, -Damage) -- use animation from Poison -> Envenom
• Fortified Constitution:  Toggle:  Resist (Smashing, Lethal, Toxic)
• Vomit Slick:  Targeted AoE (Foe Knockdown, -ToHit) -- use animation from Poison -> Neurotoxic Breath with ground effect at targeted area for targets to slip and fall in until they're out of it
• Explosive Vomit:  Ranged AoE Moderate DoT (Toxic) -- use animation from Poison -> Neurotoxic Breath

 

Defender

• Projectile Vomit:  Ranged Moderate DoT (Toxic, Foe -Regen, -Recovery) -- use animation from Vahzilok zombies
• Contagious Nausea:  Close Range Cone (Foe Hold, -ToHit, -Dmg) -- use animation from Poison -> Neurotoxic Breath with low magnitude hold so it mostly stops minions and just makes others sick
• Fortified Constitution:  Toggle:  Resist (Smashing, Lethal, Toxic)
• Vomit Storm:  Ranged AoE (Foe Disorient, -Resist)  -- use animation from Poison -> Envenom and have it trigger vomit animation on Disoriented foes
• Toxic Vapor:  Toggle:  PBAoE (Foe -Defense)  -- use animation & visual effects from Poison -> Venomous Gas

 

 

I'm sure we could work in more for the other ATs, too.

 

 

[CrudeVileTerror]

About the only thing I'd do would be to remove any use of the word Vomit, and make it so all attacks could have optional animations for "casting" from hand or mouth, at player's discretion.

[Alchemystic]

@Player2 I like the look of it, but I think it would be better to make ancillaries based off the 'Poison' powerset, pulling powers directly from it, maybe borrowing a few powers from Vahzilok like you've done here (Bile Spray could also be pinched from Leviathan mastery too).

There's also the 'Toxin Control' and 'Toxin Manipulation' powersets in this thread too if you wanted some pre-made material to work with. I was looking into what material there is here in the thread already and considering making ancillaries from those too!

 

I'm a little wary of the Defender and Controller version, because it has quite a lot of debuff potential, something those archetypes are well-equipped with already. So with that in mind, I could see this sorta concept working well for melee archetypes at least, perhaps even sentinels, blasters, and maybe masterminds.

The trick would be to limit how much debuff they give, but not limit it to other ATs that don't have toxic stuff... let controllers and defenders have something they can supplement their chosen theme with if they want... the same way one fire/fire/fire is an option because fire/fire/psi may be useful but thematically inappropriate for some.

Alternate animations rule.  I suppose we could come up with some alternate names... but I still want puke attacks.

 

Edited January 19, 2021 by Player2

[CrudeVileTerror]

I want puke attacks too.  I could definitely see them as incredibly off-putting for plenty of players too, though.  And, like you said, alternate animations rule.  I look forward to the day when EVERY Power in the game has at least three.

[Alchemystic]

Yeahhh the vomit animations are already a point of contention with the Poison powerset, there's been plenty of push to get alternative animations so that there's a 'no vomit' theme, which is why I was a bit sceptical about a very vomit-focused ancillary 😋

[OmnibusOmnh]

Hello @Tyrannical, this is my idea for Eco Friendly powersets for Praetorians. This is an expanded suggestion from @Vanden on Force Powers being better as APP on page 9, I decided that it would be a unique idea for those who start in Praetoria to have access to Praetorian based Pool Powers. These will focus on enemy factions from the main zones of Praetoria.

 

Enforcement - PPD (Preatorian)

You are able to project pure force to overwhelm your foes. Enforcement provides powers crowd control for the purpose of easing the populace and putting down insurrection among the clean streets of Praetoria, with many powers knocking down your foes or reducing their movement. Attacking a foe with single target Enforcement powers while they are affected by Force Cage will create a powerful disorient effect on them that may also disorient nearby foes.

 - Force Blast: A less common PPD power, which works as a heavier blast attack with knockback.

 - Force Maul: A less common melee power, dealing higher damage and knockdown.

 

 - Force Cage: A few PPD have this power, fitting into the ranged sleep power seen in some blast sets.

 - Impact Bomb: Unique to Investigators, this is perfect for a ranged AoE with knockdown and chance to disorient.

 - Subdue: Common Seer and Awakened power, using your own hyperactive mind you confine your foes neurological network from taking any action in moving from their location.

 

 - Psionic Torment: A few awakened have this power, you create painful visions from the mind of your target, caster is allowed to summon seers from their targets psyche.

•  - Summon Seers: Summon a seer from the seer network to fight by your side

I recently had the idea about a "disgusting" powerset for controllers and dominators....related to everything that makes you choke,vomit and gag. The animations and sounds for that are already in the game. I imagine skills from stink bombs over digestion fluids to mold sprays.....animations from plant and poison powersets could be recycled to create this one.

 

Edit: I see, it was already mentioned. Count this as another thumbs up for a "disgusting" powerset. :))

I think that is a very unique cool idea, gag animations similar to the infected in mercy island, Infection Control or Contamination perhaps, just some name I can picture for a set like that. I think it is an excellent opportunity.

[Alchemystic]

@OmnibusOmnh looks good! Though, it's a little hard to tall which archetypes these powersets belong to. 😅

 

I've been going over ancillary ideas re-using the Praetorian material that helped make the Force (PPD), Pain (Seers) and Arsenal (Clockwork) inspired powersets, and I may post these up soon!

I love the idea of Ancillaries (or even just regular pools) that tap into the lore/abilities of the various NPC groups.  It would help establish the feel of characters built with those groups in mind as part of a backstory.

 

Maybe we could see one for all the NPC groups of the game.  It seems like it could be a bit overwhelming, but you could have them be both unlockable (like how the Villain Patron Pools are) and mutually exclusive like the "origin" pools so you can only "join" one group.

 

Honestly, I think I'd prefer it as optional Pools than Ancillary / Patron because a lot of NPC groups cap at lower levels and you shouldn't have to wait til higher levels to get access to add a little thematic flair to your character's powers, and making them pool powers would keep things simple by having each set be a universal to all ATs instead of trying to balance different powers for each AT.

Absolutely, they would hypothetically be unlockable as you progress through Praetoria, 

I was also thinking about adding the carnival, drudges, apparitions and talons from the First and Night Wards as well, but decided to stick to mainland Praetorian zones

Oh yeah I'm saying I'll add them as well, just wanted to see how the main enemy factions pool sets would play out. I'll definitely get around to adding them on my current thread.

[Silver Aether]

Darkness Embodied 

 

A Mastermind version of the Darkness Control pets. 

Base Tier pet uses a modified version of the Haunt imps. They have some basic dark blast / dark armor abilities and get more from each upgrade.

Mid Tier uses modified version of the Darkness Affinity Dark Servant. Focused on Debuffs and Control with a version of the Twilight grasp that is of low power (similar to protector bots)

Top Tier is the Umbra Beast, with some decent damage output and a damage aura with a focus on taking aggro.

 

With the two Upgrades, that leaves 4 other powers. Three of them should be versions of Dark Blast, with a cone (possibly Living Shadows) as the AoE option. The specialty ability could be a lot of things, but I was thinking of a pet targeted click power that creates a powerful short term debuff aura around the pet (similar to Darkest Night, but with the anchor being a pet, as opposed to an enemy).

 

Thoughts?

[OmnibusOmnh]

Praetorian Pool Powers Part 2 for @Player2

 

Continuation of my Praetorian Pool Powers these are the Epic Pool Ancillaries

Called Praetor Pool Powers

(Thought it would be a unique concept)

 

Talons - Talons of Vengeance

Harness the power of prophecy, engage in combat with the ancient attributes of myth of the talons along with the vengeance enchanted upon their foes

[Krzbrg1]

Just another idea I had brushing my teeth.... ^^

 

We have many throwing animations in game. Add to it the "bomb laying" animation of poison trap and we have a combat pioneer style blaster /corrupter set. All kinds of grenades/charges/bombs.....molotov, smoke, flash, grenade, "geballte Ladung" aka several grenades fixed to be one charge.....land mines/explosives with several types of game damage? to make the set very flexible.

[GGamerGirl]

I might have a few powerset ideas you might be interested in.

 

Resonant Combat (Sound, Melee, Smashing and Energy, Resistance Debuff)

Mechanic: Volume (10 Stacks)- Powers increase Volume, which slightly increases chance for Mez effects to trigger. 5 sec out of combat and Volume decreases. 

1. Vibrating Strike: Single - Minor damage - Chance to Stun

2. Resonating Smash: Single - Moderate damage - Chance for Knockdown

3. Sonic Boom: Cone - Moderate damage - Chance for Stun

4. Crescendo: Self Damage and To-Hit buff. Increases Volume to 5

5. (Brute & Tank) Booming Challenge: TAoE Taunt

5. (Scrapper) Shout Out: Single target Taunt

6. Deafen: Single - High damage - Hold

7. Sonic Shockwave: Close Cone - Minor damage - Chance for Knockdown

8. Rumbling Beat: PBAoE - Moderate DoT - Knockdown and Slow

9. FACE MELT! Melee TAoE - Superior Damage, Stun and Knockdown

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Crossbow (Weapon, Ranged, Lethal, Defense Debuff)

Some enemies, such as Vahzilok Reapers and members of the Warriors gang, utilize hand crossbows. They do less damage than longbows, but they are faster and de-buff defense.
