biostem Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 43 minutes ago, Rudra said: dimensional manipulation This is an interesting idea, but I would approach it from a different angle; It'd have a mechanic similar to dual pistols' 'swap ammo', only it'd del with the particular type of dimension you were tapping into. You could have a hellish fire dimension, a noxious/toxic dimension, and an psionic/insanity dimension, (think Cthulu mythos for the latter). The attacks would consist of you either directly opening a portal on/at/near enemies to produce various effects, or perhaps you open a portal, stick your hand through, and a big hand thematic to the particular dimension you're currently attuned to emerges from the other end to deal damage or apply the effect, (maybe becoming a tentacle or giant creature's head instead).

Meh, I would more use that for a Dimensional Enhancement or Elemental Strike melee set. The idea behind the Dimensional Melee as a blast set is for far strike characters like some monks and martial artists in various genres and for supers that create little rifts they punch through to hit distant foes and other concepts like that. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if they could adapt the animated swords from the Apex TF into temporary pets/pseudo-pets for the ranged attacks... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biostem Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 37 minutes ago, KingCeddd03 said: Web Control I like the idea, but some being grenades and others not could make it kind of cludgy. I wonder if they could separate the web hold and ground splat effects from the attack animations. They could also combine the descent effect some spider mobs create when summoned, so maybe have those as temporary pets as well... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Player2 Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 5 hours ago, KingCeddd03 said: Web Control These are already in the game but it would need more to be fleshed out to become an actual set anyone have any ideas to add??? Cocoon (Only Level 40 and up) Ranged, Foe Hold Envelopes the target in a cocoon of webs. They are held helpless and unable to act. Entrap (Only Level 40 and up) Melee, Foe Hold Envelopes the target in a cocoon of webs. They are held helpless and unable to act. Web Ranged (Targeted AoE), Foe Immobilize, -Fly, -Recharge, -Jump, -Speed You have been caught in a web. You cannot move or fly and your attack speed is reduced. Wide Area Web Ranged (Targeted AoE), Foe Immobilize, -Recharge, -Fly, -SPD, -Jump 4 hours ago, biostem said: I like the idea, but some being grenades and others not could make it kind of cludgy.

Five power established... both single target and AoE immobilize and hold... plus a good pet idea, because most control sets include a pet. Control sets typically lean into the hold an immobilize, then have a smattering of confuse, disorient, sleep, and slow effects, so let me suggest a few ideas: Entangling Webs: A targeted AoE like the Wide Area Web, but it has a stronger -SPD and also adds a -ToHit and -DMG debuff because the entangling effect is hindering both aim and ability to lean into the attacks with one's full force. Blinding Web: Single target confuse and -ToHit as the controller covers the opponent's eyes with web, causing them to lash out at whoever but also because they're blinded their accuracy is affected. Suffocating Web: Ranged Cone that applies -SPD and -Recovery because it webs up targets and also covers their breathing passages, making it harder to recover Endurance while affected. Just need one more idea to round out the set with nine powers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wingslord24 Posted Sunday at 08:33 PM Share Posted Sunday at 08:33 PM Credit to KingCedd03 for the idea I had read that the last proposed set king made. I found it to be too much like another set that we have, so I decided to make some adjustments to make it its own set. Metal Armor Power Level Effect 1. Steel Skin 1 Auto: Self +Res(Smashing, Lethal) 2. Iron Muscles 2 Toggle: Self +Def(Smashing, Lethal, Energy) 3. Bronze Shield 6 Toggle: Self +Def(Energy), +Res(Energy) 4. Quick Silver 8 Click: Self +Res(Toxic), +Regen 5. Magnetic Sheen 12 Toggle: Self +Res(Disorient, Hold, Sleep, Immobilize, End Drain), -Speed, +Def(Smash, Lethal) 6.
