Player2 Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 After a discussion in another thread, I think what I want most of all is dedicated magical-themed powersets such as Arcane Blast and Arcane Defense (support), possibly Arcane Manipulation, Control, and Assault later on. Not different animations or effects on existing powersets... new, different powers that may share some similarities with existing powersets but still different and unique to itself. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kierthos Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 I wouldn't mind seeing a melee powerset based around flails/nunchaku/meteor hammers, but the animations might be tricky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was also inspired by this video below It looks like it's from another server however but I think something like this would be pretty cool.. Elementalist feels it should of been added for live! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One that built off of Sorcery and had spells, shields, binding bands of blah-blah, etc. could be funky. It has always struck me that some power-sets lend themselves to a tech / natural background, like assault rifle or martial arts, but there isn't one quite as specific for the Magic origin, like one that wields a magic staff (like Dresden or Gandalf) or wand (like Harry Potter or Willow Ufgood) or something. On the other hand, just adding those weapon options and some variant 'blasts' could go a long way. Make a Fire Blaster and get to choose whether your Fire Blasts come out of your hands, eyes, a gun (range of options, meant to evoke Heat Wave or Firebug type characters with a fire-blaster / flamethrower) or magical implement like a wand or staff. Fire Blaster one was born with these powers (Mutant). Fire Blaster two had alien rocket fuel splash on him and soak into his skin (Science). Fire Blaster three uses a high-tech mini-flamethrower (Tech). Blaster four has been entrusted with the sacred 'Wand of Agni' (Magic). And the Natural one? I got nuthin. Maybe she's an alien, and fire blaster powers are 'natural' for her people? 🙂 Edited February 8 by Ian Turner 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like this idea. It could work for a whole family of powers with Arcane Blast as a damage set, Arcane Ward as an armor set, and Arcane [INSERT WORD HERE] as the buff/debuff set. To add my own suggestion, most of the pet powers have analogous ranged sets. Thugs is like DP, Ninjas is Archery, etc. Beasts and Demons don't have one though, and I think a ranged whip set and a Nature blast set would be cool additions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkSavior Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Webslinging. Of all the amazing movement powers, webslinging I think would be a really fun addition. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingCeddd03 Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Let arcane powersets be its own thing, not an enhancement set or anything that would not bring a new look and feel to the game. it wouldn't hurt to have more serious magic-based powersets in the game that is what the last devs were going for, with each of the origins having a more serious feel. The powerset would do well with all powersets depending on how you want it to be dispelled wand, shield, staff etc. and no the powerset would not be funky as sorcery was.

Not all powersets have a generic feel. Demon summoning and necromancy go toward magic-based. Radiation blast etc. go to science-based Guns have a natural feel Robots go to tech only a few powers that a generic that can be used on all ats are all elemental powers psionic electric and the problem with generic-looking powers is it does not offer any creativity or individuality. No matter how you control electricity it will always look like it. Edited February 10 by KingCeddd03 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at what a set does and how it depicts it, rather than how it's named. Necromancy summons zombies, grave knights, a lich, ghosts, and has dark blasts, but there aren't any specific tells that the set must be magic, (no magic circles, runes, etc). Demon summon, as I previously mentioned, is a bit harder to write off. All you know about robots is that you summon robots - there is nothing to indicate how you created/summoned or control them. There's no indication as to how they are powered, or if their internals are also, in fact, artificial. Radiation likewise lacks any specific indicators as to its origins/source. Guns, especially with certain weapon models, can be explained as part of pretty much any origin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How who are summoned? Show me some pics. I've played necromancy before and, IIRC, you toss a pile of bones for the zombies and there's like a generic dark pit for the grave knights and lich. EDIT: I'm not at my gaming computer to test myself, but found this video of summoning all the necro pets, and yes, it's a generic dark pit.

(If they wanted to make it generic then they would have just called it zombies and not necromancy) Edited February 10 by KingCeddd03 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's just a lack of imagination on your part. Not every instance of something science-y involves a vial or test tube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You clearly don't know what the word "imagination" means. Now prove to me that necromancy and its animations must, necessarily, be magic. Anything you come up with, including a dev outright stating that it's magic, does not in fact mean that each and every one of my characters that use the necromancy powerset in fact use magic.

KingCeddd03 Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 (If they wanted to make it generic then they would have just called it zombies and not necromancy) Necromancy is dealing with the dead and souls = magic-based Zombies = whatever you want to call it.

No, you are still hung up on what the powers are called. What does the enchanting/empowerment powers actually have your character do - you extend a hand and they receive the buff. Nothing more, nothing less. Anything beyond that is you reading into the power(s). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
