    No ordeal at all, I wish the teleport was iconic so everyone had access.

    But if the devs were going to put another one in game in would make sense for them to spread it around to other power sets, role types. You know thinking of the whole community instead of just part of it

    The mechanic of pot I was going for was a more visualization of pot with a teleport and darkness aura out the caster would know when pot is out still its hard to see that lightning bolt sometimes people always yell troll were is my pot when u thought u casted it after 4 ticks makes it fun to visual see it I think

    the healing super charger if you wanted to add one to the previous tree

    could be

    Embracing the Shadows: you take your allies shadows to heal yourself when you do this you buff their might or precision depending on power

    what about the power being more of a Blue Beetle type power... like a backpack that equips you with diferent weapons or powers that can help in different situations, like a hand cannon for damage, or a flamethrower, huge claws? think Gadgets mixed with HL?
    OR
    A hand cannon that can shoot out different kinds of ammunition. Like a net shell for CC, or a spike shell for DoT, or a Hyper Beam typ shell for a 35% finisher? Think Megaman! lol just some ideas for our Devs to think about?

    If we ever got Shadow powers, I'm making Ebon or Suspect.

    Now l considered one turn & assume it as possible. One of "Amazon Fury" may have expansion to Shadowlands (lvl 30 magic-mentor) mission. And if Shadowlands content appear - so Shadow powers may as well (based off abilities Obsidian (heroes)/Shade (villains)). l once caught a pattern:
    Trio #1:
    Lantern Controller (Light)
    Sci-fi Healer (Electricity), because "Tesla, lonic..." in names
    Fantasy Tank (Earth), because golems, totems

    Trio #2:
    Sci-fi Controller (Quantum)
    Fantasy Healer (Celestial)
    Lantern Tank (Rage)

    So following order it would be:
    Fantasy Controller (Shadow)
    Lantern Healer (Hope)
    Sci-fi Tank (Atomic)

    Where healer you know coming (#LANTERNHEALERS2014 WoL #?). As sci-fi tank - gimme Atomic already (HoP #?)!!!:mad::mad::mad: This way Shadow troll might come as "Fantasy" Controller inside Amazon Fury pt #?.

    I gotta say, I wasn't entirely convinced at first but the anime gifs made me want it. Or at the very least made me wish that Celestial was a little more flashy with the special effects. What I wouldn't give to be able to fire off a Cero Obscura.

    So l decided to think about how make different trees whole powerset lMO might be called "Darkness". Trees call "Shadow" & "Nihility". In shadow tree basically densified shadows manipulations: pets, roots, etc. And nihility - power dump (power from nowhere), teleport, Dimensional Blackholes, negative energy etc.

    I came up with this a week ago the only thing I might change is add a healing super charger my feeling about this power if the devs were to create it, no more combo powers granted it does make since since hl is uses combos but they already have a troll that does so I personally would not want shadow to do this although others might i just hope their considering this

    can i add my thoughts on this? i would LOVE LOVE LOVE to see a controller power with a combo system exactly like celestials..it would be very power efficient and certain combos could give buffs like crit power chance and regeneration boosts.
    and someone please tell me what i gotta do as a player to help make this power happen!!!!
    im so ready for a wicked cool controller power that is a little on the darkside of things

    Would really like to see some combos in there like rage. It would be simple to do, hold down square to change the damage of x power to precision damage.

    Another idea how about a long cast move that gives power back to 7 group members maybe buffs might it could be called Rising Shadows or dark eclipse
    sucking in darkness/fear from enemies

    Awesome ideas !!!

    I touched this subject in this thread. But I'm glad to see somebody else expand it.

    I'll quote myself from the other thread.

    To the people saying we already have it in the form of the Cursed tree in celestial.
    What we have in Celestial is the duality of Good vs Evil or Angels vs Demons, Heaven vs Hell, etc. It is very related to morality and mysticism.

    Shadow or Darkness (at least as I'm envisioning it) would be a more elemental thing. Light is a stream of photons, shadow is the obstruction of said stream. This Shadow power set would have nothing to do with evil, demons or hell. Just an "element" like fire or ice.

    So, conceptually Shadow can be different from Cursed. It would probably be at least as different from Cursed as Celestial is from Sorcery. And the actually important thing. The mechanics can be completely different. You can say the concept of Sorcery is similar to Celestial or the concept of Light is similar to Rage (both are stuff from Green Lantern), but you can't say that they work in the same way, the way they work is very different from each other despise their conceptual similarities.

    There were a lot of objections to Celestial and Rage (mostly because they were "too similar" to Sorcery and Light), and yet... we have Celestial and Rage.

    I'm not denying that there would be similarities between Shadow and Mental and Shadow and Cursed. But I think it is quite feasible for Shadow to be unique enough to deserve a power set of its own.

    At the end of the day the important questions are:
    1) Are we going to get ANY more power sets? (I don't know)
    2) Do developers already have something in mind? (They probably do)
    3) Would Shadow attract enough people ? (I think it would)

    All things considered... I'm not holding my breath for a Shadow power set, but I think it is possible, so I'll cross my fingers ^_^

    1. Filling 2 roles with Lanterns, without filling 3-rd (Healer) doesn't make sense for me. And we have Blue Energy Weapon Style Pack inside marketplace, not tied to many power, but with look similar to Blue Lantern Corp tech e.g. Shield reminds emblem.
    2. Darkness power is technically Celestial's cursed tree, due Eclipso, even in CoH they had similar powers (haunt etc), but still not equal to it & this possibility still remains lMO. Probably when PS3 dropped, to support shadow matter flowing animation, inside same triad (6-th) as Water (healer), while tank would be both Metal or Blue Beetle powers, but that's barely speculation at all (we couldn't forsee that future).
    3. Positive
