Need some test playthroughs of my first arc #40915

Arc #40915 (changed since I originally posted this)

 

I've started about 4 arcs but I was trying to be too clever.  It is hard coming up with a story that is not too simple but is doable with the restrictions of AE.  So I have finally "finished" my first arc.

 

Infection from the Isles (I could use a better name)

 

This is a starting arc intended to allow you to start your level 1 characters in AE if you want and to give you different villains than you normally start with blueside.  Arc is levels 1-9 with Infected and Arachnos.

 

It is 5 missions.  2 short, the others medium length.  There is a story and lots of details.  I don't have a lot of clues or pop-ups.

 

I'm looking for general feedback - does it make sense.  Is it too easy or hard?  Are there glaring errors?  Plus what is missing that I should add - clues, extra dialog, etc?

 

Thanks

I just updated it based on Darmian's feedback.  It is now Arc 40915

 

Thanks for the feedback Darmian.  I fixed just about everything you wrote. 

 

I left the allies as minions so you have to protect them if you want their help.  I put them in because I tend to run controllers and having some minions lets me get some use out of my support powers.  I also left in the ambushes - but I will think about upping the minions and/or reducing the ambushes.  I need to get a bit of distance from the arc to judge it again.

 

For the minions, I cannot raise the police up without limiting them to 1-5 or 6-9.  I can raise the Longbow up to Lts and keep them as 1-9. 

 

Is there a way to put the police lts 1-5 and 6-9 in a group and have it select the level appropriate ones?

  • DougGraves changed the title to Need some test playthroughs of my first arc #40915

You can literally make your own police using the Officer standard costume set in the creator and just customize it as you see fit. Dual pistols at a basic level and maybe a level of Willpower as a secondary. You wouldn't need to give them many powers, simply making them a lieutenant makes them tougher. And they become 1-54 scalable.
