Most anticipated I12 improvement

I'm interested to see what they've done with the Hallows. I've pretty much ignored that zone on my last several heroes because I got tired of the massively long travel time and same story plot over and over.

I'm more excited by the new villian ATs! I knew that villian epics were only a matter of time so I really need to push my highest villain from 38 (where he is now) to 50 :P

Other than that, I'm intrigued by power proliferation. Dark blaster anyone? (I can only hope)

RE: Most anticipated I12 improvement

Mine is the power proliferation and UI customization improvement.

Hollows was easy enough to get around in if one just stopped by KR first, and got the Raptor Pack and then the Zero G pack at lvl 11. Anyone who didn't do those two things before doing hollows was just doing it wrong... Or was an alien cabbage that took over a human body.

RE: Most anticipated I12 improvement

And what's with all the crying and whining about Storm Corruptors in the main boards? Can someone explain to me why that's a big deal?

RE: Most anticipated I12 improvement

if they add electric blasts and storm summoning to corrupters, i might need to go villains for a while....also, think about how many plant controllers we will have in paragon once i12 hits. all in all, it looks to be a really good upgrade, but more for the powers things than for the secret clan of roman warriors, but that'll be cool too.

RE: Most anticipated I12 improvement

For me it's actually the new content: the new zones, getting to see the Midnight Squad in game, the advancement of the Rikti storyline, really just the further evolution of the whole CoX universe.

I'm too lazy to keep up with my own altoholism. Abana is my "main" right now as I'm going for my first level 50, but as for my creations here's a short list:

Abana (hero, Champion), lvl 50 mag tanker, stone/stone/fit
Etain Echraide (hero, Virtue), lvl 21 mag controller, plant/therm
One Man Vs. The Mob (hero, Virtue), lvl 11 sci blaster, nrg/nrg/fly/stealth
Ballplayer Reverend (hero, Champion), lvl 19 nat tanker, will/mace/speed
Dr. Arjun Girish (hero, Virtue), lvl 6 nat controller, mind/kin
Aulay Marwaring (hero, Champion), lvl 5 mut blaster, ar/mm
Ashmorah (hero, Champion), lvl 4 warshade

RE: Most anticipated I12 improvement

Honestly, I'm happy to see the power diversification, especially things like the plant controller. I was always confused by it earlier, as it brought questions like "Why is it that EVERY person that can control plants is evil?" and "Why can I dress like a shrub, but not commune with them?"

Storm Corruptors... I'm not sure what the beef with that is, possibly having a blaster set that has a keep-away power like hurricane that toggles. It's pretty hot, but nothing that would really make me crap my pants or anything. Just an amped up defender, really.

RE: Most anticipated I12 improvement

I don't forsee Scrappers getting Energy Melee unless it's altered a bit. Possibly Fire.

I guess we'll know when we see it or when the info is released.

I'm really looking forward to the Villain EATs, although I don't have a villain at 50 yet. The UI changes will be nice. Looking forward to the new 10-20 content and the new Roman zone.

RE: Most anticipated I12 improvement

Villian epics sound great. I have my highest villian (stalker) sitting at 48 right now, so I'm sure I can hit 50 before release. I pretty much haven't had motivation to hit 50 with a villian yet, thus the 4 50 heroes and no villians, the epics should change that though.

I don't foresee an energy melee scrapper either. That would be superiority to the max! Imagine an energy transfer critical hit... there is just no way this is going to happen without destroying pvp. I do hope its a non-natural based set (seems all the scrap sets are for martial artsy/weaponish stuff) and I would love to see fire as the new scrapper primary.

I have to admit, I'm very curious to see what the new defender sets are. Not so much the secondary but what is the primary going to be? I hope it isn't thermal radiation, that would be too close to empathy, but this could be very interesting.

Too be honest, as sad as it is, I'm almost most excited to be able to sort my contacts out! It drives me nuts how I have to cycle down near the bottom of my list for a contact I recieved early on in my career that has a new arc at higher levels. Its been one of those "why don't they fix this" items for me for a while, along with vertical powerbars on the UI. Great, Great all around issue here... I wonder what the projected ETA for this one is?

As long as it's before June, I'll be happy. I won't be able to reactivate until late May at the earliest.

Blasters get Psi Blast, Jordan. Sorry!

I cry Dooom™ already about that. Psi/EM blasters will break PvP. Of course, I plan on rolling one up immediately and getting it PLed to 50, so that I can contribute to the destruction of PvP as we know it. =D

You mean Psi would break if it weren't for Dark Defenders who have high resistance to both energy AND psi :)

I'm honestly not worried about Blaster's with Psi blast. With all the invasions starting up again for a little while, it'll give good opportunity for any PvP'er to get the Watchman accolade, and then there is also the temp Psi shield from the RWZ. Thats plenty of opportunity to mitigate Psi dmg. And thats just for squishies, Elec armor, Stone, Dark armor and Will power have some form of Psi defense or resistance.

As for me, its the littler things that I'm looking forward to. Combining insps to make a different one, handy for getting rid of blues or greens you don't need. Also more power trays will be VERY handy for my toons that have lots of buttons for their powers (eg: my masterminds).

*Titan of Granite: lvl 50 Tanker*

*Xenokrates: lvl 50 Brute*
*Kuramaru: lvl 50 MM*
Wolf Fury: lvl 40 Brute

Towering Shadow: lvl 45 Bane Soldier
D'jango: lvl 34 Night Widow

Signed, but for my kheldians more than my MM. But most of my characters start to run out of space fast with accolade powers and temp powers.

RE: Most anticipated I12 improvement

I do not know if I am going to be happy with the Villain EAT's, after all, Heroes and Villains (on both sides of the fence, mind) beat the snot out of Arachnos baddies regularly. I am curious as to their power sets (defense/offense), mostly.

I am looking forward to the new Midnight Squad story arcs/orobouros crystal arcs, especially for my Magic origin heroes. I may gripe, however, if the arcs drop Technology or Science enhancements, because really, IMO high tech and high science do not equate with Romanesque stories/settings. Unless of course you are whooping it up on time traveling villains, who could conceivably be carrying those particular origin enhancements. I will wait and reserve judgment on the structure of the arcs/storyline/rewards until after I have played it.

Also looking forward to the level up bonuses. Will be nice, especially if you level on a long Trial/Task Force. Curious as to the "Large Inspiration Award" they are talking about, does that include Iron Will??

I think the lvl-up bonuses are going to make the Sewers Runs absolutely crazy. As often as people level down there, they're just going to be going nuts on Vahz and Outcast.
