Hello! A rare post from me, consider it a wishlist for 3 powersets and an overhaul of 1 :)

[SupermanCO]

I know new powersets are coming as well as other goodies, and I am excited about it!! These are wishlist items fro me (and many others)...GM GooglyMooglie told me to post them here 🙂 :

1) Please COMPLETELY overhaul Storm BLAST to make it more BLASTY and in line with other blaster power sets, damaging, and much less of a "controller"-style powerset.  it's underwhelming...I was vastly hoping when it rolled out it would be like Incarnate Ion power....it's not 😞

2) Wind Control, the mythical and long rumored powerset...it may be coming, but just thought I'd remention it.

3) Please create a LIGHT-BASED powerset -- there is Dark Melee and Dark Blast; " For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. ", to quote Isaac Newton.  Light Melee and Light Blast would be AWESOME!!! And people have argued that is a Peacebringer, but that is not what I mean.  I mean like Dazzler, or Dagger of "Cloak and Dagger", Green Lanterns, etc etc

4) I was encouraged to mention this one. and I know there are many many fans of such creatures out there -- I should know, iI have 10 of them myself 🐼🐼 -- but my final wish is for a Panda Summoning MM powerset. 😄 People love pandas on this game as well as in real life, and having an army of pandas to do your midding, either by mauling or bashing with bamboo staffs would be EPIC!!! I'm a dreamer, but I can dream...

THank you so much for this forum to post ideas; and as always, much respect to the GMs and devs that keep us all happy in our superpowered world!! 🙂❤️

Respectfully,
Stephen

222 alts on Excelsior...I could go to 250 if y'all can make some of these happen 🙂

Storm blast may need some help, but I do *not* want every single blast set to have to fall in direct parity with each other;  Storm's schtick is laying down your storm cell and taking advantage of the additional damage/effects your other powers produce when cast within it.  If you aren't doing that, then you aren't taking full advantage of the set.

Been much talked about.  My understanding is that the animation work, which takes the most time, is what's left to do on it.

The opposite of "dark" in CoH is energy.  You have rad and energy blast, to that end.  Electricity is the closest to an energy control set.  Maybe we need a radiation control set, though.

Maybe, somewhere down the line, we could get some customization for beast MMs, and get bears of various varieties as options for the animals summoned.

The only thing I want changed in Storm Blast is removing the -repel in Jet without having to wait on Storm Cell to move

I roll my eyes whenever I see the Panda jokes get going in LFG.

 

Not sure why it happens or what the weird fascination is but…for some odd reason it’s put me off Panda characters so much, I most likely wouldn’t allow and Panda MMs on any team I was forming.

 

I know.  Weird rant.  Sorry.

It's better than Clowns as an MM powerset, which I've seen several people mention.  Pandas >>> Clowns.  Just ask Wakko Warner. [He hates clowns.]




vs.

"

In the cartoon show Animaniacs, Wakko Warner has a severe anxiety around clowns. In the season one episode 34, "Clown & Out", a clown visits Wakko on his birthday. Wakko is terrified of clowns and wants nothing to do with them, even when they're clearly friendly. 

 

In episode 34, Mr. Plotz insists that the clown do his full hour-long show because he also is afraid of and hates clowns. Plotz also likes to watch the clown suffer every time Wakko hurts him. "

I think the most you'll get for Pandas is the costume bit for shoulders, but good news, you can have two of them.
