plainguy Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 Basically where you can pick any power from any AT for that Tier but then it excludes all the other Tier powers from that level. Of course make any exceptions as needed. Do this for Primary and Secondary and even Power Pools. EG Tier 1 whip from demon summoning Tier 2 Buckshot from Assault Rifle Tier 3 Typhoons Edge from Dual Blades..

About the only group requirement was you had to have caltrops. The vast majority joining the insanity were Ninja/Traps Masterminds. Absolutely crazy amounts of caltrops were dropped particularly after the Jounin joined the fun. Made the Ninjas quite durable as most foes were running about slowly trying to get out of the enormous coverage of caltrops generated. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biostem Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 Champions Online allows freeform power selection. The end result was a lot of characters feeling "samey", since there are just some powers that are leagues above the others, if allowed to be taken in isolation of the AT or powerset they are a part of. I can't imagine how you'd possibly balance this type of implementation. Still, it's a fun thought experiment... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
