New Power Pools? 

I was wondering if anyone else thinks new power pools should be added? I don't mean power pools for attacks and such, even though I think some of the Dark/ stuff should be revamped and that every power pool should more powers added to them.

I was thinking overall power pools such as resistance, damage and recharge speed, like how we have stamina, health and fitness or whatever. Resistance could have enhancements such as resist smashing, resist fire, resist psionic, stuff like that.

The enhancements wouldn't get too high and there'd be a limit of the amount of each you could stack, so no Ice DOM having all resist fires slotted and being impervious to fire. It would be great for PvP as well as PvE.

Damage Power Pool would let you increase your over all damage percent, but only to a certain amount, in other words no lvl 26 will ever come close to hitting as hard as a lvl 50.

Recharge would help your Powers Recharge, maybe even your temp powers, Accolades and PPPs but once again, only to a certain degree, no having yourself super slotted so that your attacks recharge instantly.




These Power Pools would be limited in the amount of slots they'd have also, so your toon could have an evenly spread defense to most attacks or very good defense against a few attacks, no chance of being immune to all attacks.
Anyone else think these would be a great idea?

RE: New Power Pools? 

I always had this idea in mind as well. I even made or began to make up power pools. I made up one called 'Hydropathy', i'm still working on it heheh.

RE: New Power Pools? 

I always thought it would be cool to add a new power pool that's all about augmenting your current powers, a little in the way that hasten does your recharge.

Your teir one powers could be one that increases the range of all your powers and one that decreases the interrupt time and recharge by a small amount. Your tier two power could be one that increases the strength of the secondary effects of all your powers. And your tier three power could be one that causes all of your powers to cost less endurance to activate, about the equivalent of a single DO endurance enhancement

Thanks, I also had another idea for signature moves where everyone could have them.

There'd be linked slots, lot's of them and each one had a drop down slot for adding an enhancement type mod to it, regular things slotted would be attack and travel tokens, so let's say this was a brute making a signature move, first slot is a strong punch with knock back aimed up/fly up, second punch up/fly up, third punch up/fly up fourth barrage punch/air superiority. So that brute's results for that attack would be him knocking his enemy upwards, flying after him and knocking him upwards again and so on and then delivering a barrage of hard hitting punches and then knocking him all the way back down with air superiority. Wouldn't be too hard for the devs to add and wouldn't make the game too unfair in PvP as using a break free would also free you from the combo that was being unleashed upon you.

Now Corruptors could also unleash a torrent of brawls or flurries if they wanted too or they could stick let's say /Dark's torrent to knock someone into the air and then finish them off with Dark/'s moonbeam, really it depends on which powers you have and how ya slot them into the combo link. You could even use PPPs provided they are charged, and damage from attacks put into combos do not do as much as they usually do, so no worries about some scrapper or stalker using it to spam hide + assassin's strike over and over as stealth powers are not slottable into the combo chain.
