  • Thank you so much! That answer was definitely what I was looking for (especially in terms of power levels, I wanted the character to be powerful but not overwhelmingly so). It's certainly a lot to digest but I feel like pretty much every doubt I had was addressed. I'll make sure to post here again if I happen to have any…
  • I haven't logged in (either in the forums nor in the game itself) for a long time now so... Yes Please.
  • Not sure if it's what you are looking for in terms of ethics and morals (but I'll guess they're pretty similar to Real World ones) but the Stronghold sourcebook (which I do not own in case you'd need buyer's advice or something) details the law in a superhuman inhabited world. Hope I helped.
  • Yes please. That's about it really.
  • 1-New Zone, we need content. That's about it. 2-Bug Fixes, we can't have an enjoyable experience without errors popping up around the corner. I haven't been directly affected by most bugs and never found a game-breaking one, but they need to be addressed. 3-The Foundry, all that Cryptic has to do is implement it (which may…
  • I really do not get Cryptic in the slightest. SWTOR proved that not even a well-known brand can hold a game by itself. Champions is, for starters, in a good spot. Not in an internal overview mind you, but rather from an overall industry standpoint. It's biggest rival is coming down, bringing new players and developers(?)…
  • I took a break from Champions for about 4 months because the lack of content was finally getting into me, I had some fun with other games and recently returned because of the nostalgia factor hanging over my head. And there's pretty much no new content whatsoever besides a couple of costumes sets and the Vehicle system…
  • A definitive vote for Energy Blasts. Nature's good too, but the animal part is a bit covered by Bestial Supernatural. Symbiote seems kind of redundant as a powerset and water doesn't seem that appealing either (at least put water powers in the Ice Framework?). This is, of course, only my opinion.
  • Sorry, misunderstood one of the beginning posts as in you were yet to buy it. Glad the question got so many answers through, especially given how empty the lore section has been over the last months.
  • I actually thought you did have the book, it's the best place to start with the lore in my opinion. If you're only interested in VIPER than the Coils of the Serpent sourcebook is the way to go.(and CU only gives a brief paragraph regarding the incident)
  • Not that it may fill your needs or tastes but can't the Therakiel/Nephilim Wings use light effects? That would be a good replacement at least and I'm not very satisfied to see Cryptic ignoring true content over the reskinned travel power method.
  • They'd kill you (your character of course), quickly and effectively, if the authorities didn't know you worked in VIPER in the first place they could get away pretty easily. If you have the 6th edition Champions Universe sourcebook the Cottonmouth Incident is detailed. A former supervillain of their own surrenders…
  • I honestly never quite enjoyed COH (nor it's lore but that's a different matter I believe), but I do realize the process can be hard for long-term players (for whatever my words are worth). I've tried roleplaying quite a bit over the course of my stay here in Champs, and even trough I'm not experienced I can say that the…
  • I won't discuss b) as it was kind of a joke, but I meant the fact that Leo's becoming a full-blown instance would mean the existence of 2 bars in the same area and one is alot better than the other, so Shererra's may end up being forgotten if the idea does come to a pass.
  • I actually agree with the level barrier and since a) Alerts made leveling a lot easier and b) A Day in the Mall has a powerhouse entrance to VB's real powerhouse, therefore allowing to skip the entire Crisis and to get there with a level 6, I don't think the warp suggestion is the best solution after all. I don't think…
  • Well it is a fun question, but I believe it's not answered in the sourcebooks. IIRC He isn't mentioned to keep any pets but, this in my understanding of events, he's not an animal hater. He may see animals simply as inferior beings that pose no threat whatsoever to his plans so he rarely if ever cares for them. Still,…
  • Ah, happy to see these are still active. I'll probably post either a)Tyrant's revised origin or b)post a new char bio altogether. As usual, great story Kaufmann. And good luck, Yuri.
  • I found a gym-esque room when I disconnected myself in the Penthouse roof, I thought about posting the pics on the forums but they were too heavy (back when there were attachments anyways). Cryptic actually surprised me with hideouts, they created entire suggestion threads and hinted at a number of potential functions but…
  • Well (IIRC) Grizz does say that "he won't be welcomed in here [the Multifarian] with open arms and a hero's parade, not like you will." or something along those lines. The Resistance did not knew about his true identity back in Champions Earth before the happenings of the Adventure Pack but I do agree they may be tempted…
  • This year does mark the 20th anniversary. I believe there was a thread with a similar suggestion pre-forum apocalypse (or whatever you call it).
  • The PnP continuity does not match the in-game version exactly, as Cryptic has the freedom to manipulate the IP in just about every way. Before the Champions IP was purchased however, all Hero Games titles were connected (eg. there was a Turakian Age setting for Fantasy Hero) but Cryptic does not own rights for those IPs.…
  • The Qularr Invasion was the result of a fleet of Qularr ships scouting the Earth in hopes of a)discovering the Gadroon's plans on it and b)to study superhumans. Shadow D detected their presence and sent one of his reprogrammed destroids to activate the beacon located stored in the Champions' Headquarters: Homestead. He…
  • Alright, this seems more of a "welcome back" thread than any other, so....well...just look at my sig!Things seem to be back to normal, anyhow. Glad to see all the old names here. (Wait who was I again?)
  • Probably only weekly maintenance.
  • Seems to have to worked for me, have you tried again since?
  • I'm starting to think that this forum may be the domain of some multiple personality disorder-affected forum god....that or there was some kind of forum here before the Big Bang (read:yesterday's maintenance)! Nah, that would be impossible....I Miss my name too, still...
  • I believe that will take too much time, but would be a cool inclusion to the game's features and environment. I do think there are other things more worthwhile to fulfill, specifically the need for content (quoting everyone else: "New Zone."). There are, still, the lore perks/achievements/whatever gained when completing a…
  • I'll miss the old forums, for sure. Not many people like this forum, but it's just a matter of time till it grows on them, I suppose. For the DOOM meter of this post to be filled, however: "Change is bad, man. Like REALLY bad." (Nepht does have a point, still.)
  • This. Thanks for the catch.:biggrin:
  • Just a question, have you merged your account with PWE, already? If not, you may have been granted a temporary/default name for use until you do. If this is in fact permanent, I guess it really damages one's individuality but even then, you should keep posting like you would otherwise (lots of folks, myself included, use…
  • Well...welcome to the new forums I guess. Kinda saddened by this change, but I don't think a forum layout change (even one as "limited" as this one) should have to bring about so much drama and chaos. Would be nice to recover some older features, still.

  • Kinda stupid on my behalf...I wrote my PWE handle as an old char of mine and now I'm stuck with. The FAQ does say that "at this time, there is no way to change your forum name." which means I'll be using it for awhile...
  • Pretty much this, I think I'm stuck with a crappy handle I created way back...(LordOfTheAbyss btw)
