AZ does this to all of us, Val. To all of us.

But seriously now, I thought I would get someone able to punch or claw enemies not some purple energy throwing. I hope that changes with level ups and new skills. If I keep playing.

I had an idea. Could maybe you experienced champions players give some basic pointers?

Like, I shoot people with ice, but I'm not really sure which stat I should be increasing to maximize my damage output. Intelligence?

It usually says what the stat effects when you're looking at characteristics. Hit C and hover over each one to see if there's a tooltip. I know the following:

Constitution increases your maximum HP.
Dexterity breaks you out of physical holds and heightens the chance of dodging an attack.
Ego breaks you out of intangible holds and increases the effectiveness of psychic and force attacks.
Endurance increases your maximum energy.
Intelligence reduces the cost of using your powers.
Presence increases support abilities like healing and debuffing.
Recovery increases your idle energy cap and the speed at which you regenerate it.
Strength increases the effectiveness of all melee attacks.

Also, Lyra and I have found the ultimate method of fighting crime. Just lurk on corners looking like streetwalkers and wait for shady characters to approach you, like so. Then, beat the shit out of them and take their cheddar.

The game only uses one server across numbered instances. Electric powers aren't available to non-subscribers yet, but if you want to be elemental, you can use ice or fire-based abilities. There's also telepathy, clobbering things with your fists, clawing things to death, using swords, using guns, using swords and guns, using claws, and using magic.

Downloading out of curiosity. The fact that it's downloading at like 1% per 10 minutes is making me want to play it less, admittedly.

i'm not sure what i'm doing wrong but I know there has to be a faster way to download this.

It's probably putting a lot of strain the their servers to have this many people downloading all at once.

I just edited the first post with some new information. I don't want our guild name to be Awkward Zombie, because that just doesn't fit with a team of superheroes. Lyra, Ame, and I like The Peacekeepers. Anyone have name suggestions?

EDIT: And, on an entirely unrelated note, I can now levitate and throw cars with my telekinetic abilities.

Almost finished the download, it speeds up a lot after 3% or so, even though that takes about 20 minutes.
Whoops than i needed to install it
