    Nah, rather has something against the way Telepaths and Telepathy in game is, I mean, new powers were served up and looked very yummy then they were removed 4 months ago...same amount of time I've been waiting to play my main who happens to be a telepath...oh well, I guess it's back to using my ultimate attack!

    2/21 is The Big One. Whatever the invaders' plans are, they're going to culminate in a giant Custom Alert. This will be balanced for high-powered characters and for vehicles, so don't get cocky.

    I know y'all are in love with your vehicles (since, y'know every hero has a combat ready vehicle like Batman and ... Batman) but how about we not balance for optional / purchasable equipment and for the actual powers and abilities in the full game?

    You missed the part about "high-powered characters", I take it?

    None of my high-powered characters can solo Qwijybo on their own, yet while in a vehicle with select weapons they can with little effort. Can any of your high-powered characters do that without vehicle help? Our definition and Cryptic's definition of "high powered characters" aren't the same thing.

    I pretty much soloed Qwijybo a few days ago, and really only used two attack powers to do it.
    It isn't about "high-powered characters" so much as it's about "ridiculously effective powers".

    My fire character would have a much harder time doing it. My force character probably couldn't have done it.

    Two Gun Mojo? No problem.

    But it's that same thing you hear from other people. That if you can not carry a team fighting Ao'Qephoth in two-minute drill that you are somehow doing something wrong, when it is really just that you picked the 'wrong' powers.

    Nevermind that they aren't appropriate for your character(s); Every character, apparently, is supposed to pick Skarns Bane, two-gun mojo, lead tempest, and that poison cloud power where people just walk around and enemies die in seconds.

    Not to mention summons. Whether devices or powers, every 'great' hero apparently relies upon an army of slaves to get the job done.

    Who knew?

    Hoping what hit PTS is just a preview and not the true event set in stone.

    If it is..then I will actually cry. I could actually use NO BUILD and a vehicle to run that instance, put me in a competant team of heroes and I could use my Telepath in that alert..and her main attack (and only attack) is Psi Lash...so yeah...I too hope it is a preview and that they are willing to change it.
