By the way, wherever you see these little badge things on the ground, getting near to it will award you with a... badge.

First one you find it probably right behind Ms. Liberty in front of the Atlas statue, but there's one on top of city hall by the flag, and one on top of Atlas' globe, too. Seem to be pretty common "go here when you get flying" waypoints.

I haven't even managed to get Vash in to the group yet, let's not push him away before I can.

Besides I put a bath tub in the base.

EDIT: Also respec'd one of my sets to have combat jump, as it apparently gives a good bit of defense that I felt I was missing. Flying feels good, but I don't think super jump works out to be much slower than flying or super speed. Hulk physics in this bitch.

I think I joined that chat channel with just /gwf but I don't actually recall at this point. You might click one of the numbers in the tabs and add a new tab that way.

Added a GWF server/science room for @canadaguy.

There's still one room completely empty, and a few others I've got to flesh out more.

Open to ideas.

When you hit an even level at 4 or later, and you go to the trainer, you've got your primary and secondary power sets but there's a third column on the right. You click into that and you can pick from all the power pools available, including flight, super speed, etc. They're available to everyone regardless of the specific hero type you rolled, and are mostly travel perks. Some of them give benefits to defense, etc. but let's be real, you want to zoom around, at least on the first character.

I did redo a build using combat jumping since it's supposed to be more defensey, but it's just... Meh. I found myself actually running out of energy way faster, without significant improvement in DPS, so fuck it. Switched back to my super-speed/sorcery build.

Your travel choices are between
  • Flight, with a hover ability giving a little defense.
  • Speed, with a phase out letting you run through enemy hitboxes.
  • Teleport, letting you pull enemies to you and blip around in combat.
  • Jump, with a double jump and defense boost.
  • Sorcery, with flight plus teleportation.
I did it a bit silly and took speed and later sorcery. I find myself flying more in the city maps, and running in the caves/buildings. Speed gives me a flurry punch too, but it's pretty weak.

But both of them feel better than jumping.

I maybe should have gone with teleport to make myself Nightcrawler. It'd help pull individual enemies too since I'm melee and only have one ranged ability (mutagen).

But that being said, I don't find myself using the sorcery teleport at all. It just hasn't seemed useful yet. Combat teleport would be more useful though.

You do get respecs, I think 3 for free, but I'm leery to waste them. I'm just going to try to stick out what I've got going and eventually roll another character to try something else.
