Wait, we have Sontarans, Daleks, and Fendahl in this game? Where?

I understand your point. However, outside alignment tips and morality missions, there is no meaningful vig/rogue content in the game as it is. If this is a push to place more of that kind of content into the game, then I'd like to see it eventually go a step further, and be part of the character's arc. This would require setting alternate alignments from the get-go, then playing through stuff that pertains to the ethos. Not gonna happen, I know. So Rogue/Vig ethos remains, for most players, a status that allows some flexibility to hop back and forth. For others, they might really see their toons as vigs and rogues. I feel like those players are in the minority, though. Maybe that'll change as more content of this type comes online. On the whole, though, I'd guess that it's good to have the choice-and a less laborious one, at that - to just go vig from the outset. I've taken only a few chars myself through the morality tales, so it's not like I can be all preachy about how things oughta be.

 

On this part of your reply, I agree. That said, we do have folks who seem to be content running the same leveling/TF path for their characters, with little concern for new content. Just an impression. I could be wrong. People soloing don't advertise what they're up to, after all.

Now why didn't I consider Null's feelings?

I have done a TON of AE work, both long form and single arc. Just search the AE mish list for my sig @cranebump. For more information on my stories, head to the AE forum sub-heading and look for “Crane’s World.” Support your AE authors! We ARE the new content.

Wow.

Aside from a new power set (I've also been waiting for a set like this for a specific character concept), the ones that directly appeal to me (at this moment):

 

Croatoa zone changes to help with the GMs and Events. I still encounter players that simply don't believe the entire spawns need to be cleared (even in Kings Row), so at least being able to spot the level-less mobs with /optionset showvillainname 1  should make it easier to convince open-minded players how these events actually work.

 

The minor tweaks to Water Blast. I really like this set as it is, but there is some real clunkiness to Tidal Force accumulation/use, and Water Jet was always dropped from my builds at level 50+. The beta changes are not by any means over-powered, but I do see how these will help smooth out the experience of the Tidal Forces gimmick for ATs that choose this set. I appreciate that TPTB can look at a 'gimmick set' and see something that clearly isn't working (in a 'the juice is not worth the squeeze' kind of way).

 

Weapon Redraws will probably improve QoL, but it has been a while since I've done a lot of playing with weapon sets,

You do realize that two different developers have already told you that that is a no go for technical reasons, right?

Actually, they said it is possible but would be a lot of front end work. So there's that. 

 

Also, I do appreciate everything the HC team does. I really do. But I will say adding new powers and the odd mission really isn't what I would like to see. So, I am providing my input and feedback.

Nothing for the melee.

NEED a Super Strength Scrapper

Maybe Super Human Strength - something that looks between Street Justice and Super Strength? Combo rage and lunges so it's more like a vampire, werewolf strength?

Thanks for D-Sync Enhancements! Just wish things like Resist/End, Heal/End and Damage/Mez had a third stat that made them more viable. Suggestions - add Recharge to Ribosomes, Range to Golgis, and Slows to Peroxisomes. These changes would allow for an endurance cost/range, recharge/endurance, and slow/mez or slow/damage enhancements.

Nothing new has been said about it. It's either something that requires more work or was not on the table for Page 6.

So no new costume pieces? Like under arm wings etc? 

New costume pieces require modellers, something the dev team lacks outside of 1 person who also handles a whole host of other things for the server (i.e base items)

When do we get Psionic Aura for Tanks?

Whenever the dev team designs it. Which could be never!

Porting Super Strength to Scrappers probably is something heard but not done yet for any number of reasons.

Melee got plenty of love in past pages and probably got some still coming. They release what's ready and not much else.

If it ain't broke on tanks and brutes, then it won't be broke on scrappers. Melee modifiers are beautifully balanced that way.

Which is why tanks should have Energy Aura and Ninjitsu by now!

I know people are very interested in the new blasts/ powers but please go and check out the new arcs. I've just properly run through the 40-44 one and it is great. For me, it is the kind of arc the alignment system was made for. Really great use of it. New content is something many of us have asked for, lets show the dev team that it is appreciated!

 

Will be testing the other one on Monday.

I am also wondering if you could provide a link to where Devs said this wasn't possible? I don't want to go chasing waterfalls, if you will, if there is some hard evidence here. 

 

I efforted to DM a Dev and he told me it is possible but involves a lot of front end work then it could turn into what I suggested.
