Take One Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 I would like to suggest a new temporary power to be purchasable for Influence in the P2W store. It would come in the shape of a martial arts belt, and it could come in various "colors", so we could buy a White Belt, a Green Belt, a Blue Belt, etc. Each belt color would grant the use of a power from the Martial Arts powerset, a set number of times, and they would all be purchasable a number of times to allow for 100s of uses. This would let us create characters who are capable of using martial arts kicks and punches, as well as our regular powers, for greater customization. 1 Check out my stories in the Mission Architect.

FrauleinMental Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 I might go along with temp powers that are watered-down versions of one or two of the lower-tier powers in the set (much less effective but use the same animation), although I think there are already too many temp powers on the P2W vendor. If you want more powers, or you want higher-tier powers, or you want them to do more damage, make a MA character. AT, primary, and secondary are fundamental selections for a character that shouldn't be cheapened by putting all of their powers up for P2W. And I worry about cobbling together temp powers to form tertiary power sets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShardWarrior Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 (edited) Alternatively this could also be accomplished by adding power set customization into things like punch and kick in the fighting pool.

I like this idea much better than adding more temp powers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monos King Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 If it's a temp power you earn via an arc or zone event I am very supportive. If it's from pay2win vendor I am very opposed. Letting punch and kick have alternate animations would probably solve the problem better though, if it can be called that.

While this idea is being explored, does anyone remember the old (Chun Li style) rapid kick from Martial Arts that was replaced with the jumping spin kick that we have now? Could we have that old animation brought back as an alternate animation option for Super Speed -> Flurry? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
