But hey, if someone *****es about something you use step one is to accuse them of dying to it and thinking it's OP. The real situation is what i outlined in the first paragraph. I have a character mid 20s undergeared who is slaughtering purples with zero fear of even taking meaningful damage. It's become so mind numbingly boring that i cannot even log onto the character again. I like the thought of supernatural power, an energy unlock that triggers on power use instead of secondary effects. I like devour essence as the character is blood based and DE colored red looks like she's sucking huge amounts of blood out of them. And all the toxic powers colored correctly look apporpriate for the character's theme. On top of that the poison also is a fun mechanic to work with. The powers i was talking about are just too damn strong. Strong powers are good, the game should have them and accessable by everyone. Being weak sucks and is not fun too. But being too strong is boring too, at least to those who don't have a god complex.

I also haven't been involved on this game or forums for quite a while and the developers don't speak much at all so i can't know who is who right away.

Yes, this is addressed to whoever does or does not balance.

You know, the important bits.

I do talk to the community because it's something Cryptic has traditionally done as a largely-unique element of our company culture, and in particular because I took Tumerboy as a role model in terms of how to interact with the playerbase. I try to be a channel for communication in both directions, and to build goodwill and excitement for the game.

But I'm not a community rep, and I'm really not involved with the balance at all.

As far as power armor goes, the next few weeks are going to see some really nice new stuff that you'll be able to use to PEW! PEW! the bad guys with. I'm excited!
