"Store-bought Enhancements are available in increments of five levels, and you can only slot an Enhancement that's two levels about your current level. At level 35, you could slot a level 37 Enhancement, but that level 38 would have to wait.'

This is incorrect. You can slot enhancers that are three levels above and they don't lose effectiveness until they are three levels below your character's level.

"Store-bought Enhancements are available in increments of five levels, and you can only slot an Enhancement that's two levels about your current level. At level 35, you could slot a level 37 Enhancement, but that level 38 would have to wait."

This is incorrect. You can slot enhancement 3 levels higher and they work up to three levels lower.

"Case in point: My spider, whom I've repeatedly extolled as one of my favorite characters, needs to unlock her Patron Pool. For better or worse, the story arc requires her facing off against several Elite Bosses that are really problematic for her when they're even fully doable. This is a series of missions to unlock a feature pretty much core to her class. It would be like having to do a mandatory group quest to pass Level 35 or unlock most of her Enhancement slots."

Every part of that arc is and has always been soloable by every archetype. An Arachnos Spider should run over any of the four patron arcs. Elite bosses ARE solo content. Back in City of Heroes, you used to have actual Archvillains show up instead.

With respect, if you're having problems with that arc, it's your tactics, not the game.

Jedi Consular Sage. Telekinetics for the win!

It's clear that we're working out the kinks in the system before the masses get to check it out. We're die hard fans anyway, what's a 10 hour downtime for us? :)

City of Heroes - All the fantasy of the fantasy games, but indoor plumbing!

It would be hilarious if they added a pointy-eared, hottie species and called them sevle or fle. :D

I certainly agree that an appearance tab would be great, but to play devil's (sith's?) advocate, how many jedi really dress that differently from one another? It's really been brown robes, tan tunics for most of the movies. Luke did the all black number in RoTJ, but other than than, Jedi and Sith aren't known for fashion.

That's half of the classes right there. Of the other half, two others: Agents and Troopers are members of military organizations which make the idea of completely unique costumes a bit weird. So we're left with only two classes where there 'should' be a large diversity of appearance.

I'll pay up to $20 over the cost of the basic edition. I only play for digital items, because I hate all the dust collecting crap.

Respectfully, as I understand this is all your opinion, but this is some of the most insane advice concerning Blasters I've ever seen.

Did you really put Energy Blast ahead of Ice Blast on damage? Why do you believe that? Bitter Ice Blast DPA/DPS is significantly better than Energy giving it a better ranged Single target chain. It's AoE even does more absolute damage than Energy.

As for secondaries, Devices is probably the worst option with no Build Up and it's slow AoEs. Especially compared to Mental which even weaker than its dominator version has very nice mix of AoEs and even an enhanceable -regen debuff.
