Hi
just a quick little note and some quick thoughts on the Daxamite Fire powerset.
It would be identical to the Kryptonian Fire we already have in the game, I know many of the legends chars use the flight abilities, but they are all Fire based chars.
I would make the Daxamite Fire blue, and instead of giving self heals the heals would heal also the group, pretty straight forward. restoration based.
Mon-El, Dev-Um and Rhea-El, would be able to use the flight abilities also, but since this moves them around and we don't want that as healers better to use the basis of normal Fire. In DPS stance they would be identical to Fire, except keeping the colour blue.
Enflame = HoT
Immolation = Priority Heal
Eternal Flame = group shielding for upto 16 players. SC cost 50%.
Burning Determination = group shielding for upto 8 players.
Flame Cascade = Dropper/low cost burst heal
Backdraft = Catcher/if 2 of the party have low health in the next two mins it will be automatically topped up to full health.
6 powers for 6 slots. done!

New Krypton III
New Krypton III
Duo
While investigating the damage Zod did to Metropolis Superman falls strangely ill. Zod also had a plan for Kalel, similar to the one done to Lor-Zod, Red Kryptonite for Superman..We join the duo outside of the Science Spire where Superman is attacking the general population. His clothes are different, somehow reversed in colour scheme.
The duo *try* to subdue Superman, but only succeed in making him go inside of the Science Spire.
Inside Lex Luthor is there, he is shocked at Superman's behaviour, while the duo try to subdue Superman further, Lex goes to retrieve his LexCore Battle Armour, which he refers to for the first time as 'LexCorp Apocalypse'. Once Supes is at half health, Lex returns to fight alongside the duo, once Supes is at a quarter health, Lex says 'I knew this would happen again!' in reference to Zod's guardsmen who broke in before. Lex triggers a handheld device and a large cage made from green Kryptonite falls and surrounds Superman.
Lex turns and says 'well done!.. if there's anything left in the insurance budget, I will be sure to send you both a token reward and a letter of gratitude.'
Lex is referring to the investigation reward,: a chunk of red kryptonite on a plinth. Of which he is the one who send you the reward and the message, the last investigation node is hidden in the elevator shaft to the left as you enter the room, however it does not open until after Superman is caged.
Alert
Our team step out of their safehouse* when they receive a communication* That:
Rhea-El*, Bizarro Ursa aka 'Mala', Titano, Amazo as K-Man, Brainiac hacked Cyborg Superman, Black K Bizarro. (Heroes)
Rhea-El, Dev-Em * Titano, Eradicator empowered Jorel AI* Ra-Ya*, Blue K empowered Mon-El (Villains)
'The K Bounties' are in the area, and should be investigated.
At the Queensland Boardwalk* In Little Bohemia the group accidentally come across five of Zod's Kryptonian guardsmen.. just standing in a circle on top of the ferris wheel chatting, hanging out. They get spooked when the team approach and fly off.
The team pursue them, but after finding them standing around in a rooftop for the second time, the same thing happens again.
The third time, we come across them and Jax-Ur surprises us with an attack, and all six attack.
After the battle things wind down, and it seems our work is done.. except we are surprised by Black Zero! Zod's forces rally and the team fight them all!
After the fight, Black Zero boasts ' I was doing you a FAVOR by coming to destroy the earth quickly.. haha! it was a mercy!.. because the one who is coming will not be so merciful HAHA.. (under breath) stupid humans'
OW 'Riot'
During Ursa Non and Grodd's time at the Oan Science Cells, they caused a lot of disruption ..
We receive a communique from Oracle/Calculator 'Calling all JLA JSA, Legion of Doom, SSSV, Rogues.. EVERYONE.. ANYONE! come to CAO Dam in Metropolis, this is URGENT drop everything! come. now.'
We arrived and EVERY single hero and villain is there, the full JLA full JSA, Full Legion of Doom, every human Lantern.. and in the distance one solitary figure floats high over the distillation reservoir .. 'thanks for coming.. we face an insurmountable threat that we all will need every ounce of strength and guile to beat.. Superboy Prime. oh dear.'
We have a scene where Zod sides up to Superman, Zod is wearing his black and silver version of Superman's suit with a Z on the chest, he said..'I did not know my acts would have such grievous consequences ..(touchingly) Kalel I am truly sorry.' All the others of Zod's ranks are wearing the same suit, while the 'El family' wear S and appropriate colours*.
The situation is this: anyone can join, if you are Acro or SS, a GL will imbue you with the power of flight. you can make groups of upto 16 people per group, Superboy Prime is NOT stat clamped in any way, the lower you are, the quicker you die. As many groups can fight at the same time as there are people willing to make groups. It's in 'real' Metropolis, so level one's might wonder in, but it's all part of the experience. The community AS A WHOLE gets to have a crack at Superboy Prime.
He emanates light* that he absorbed while in the Cells. and depending on which light, determines when the groups should attack.
Red = don't attack just block or he will heat vision you into oblivion.
Green = again no. He will suck vast amounts of people toward him and kill them.
Blue = no, this boosts his defence even further.
Purple = yes, attack now while he is healing.
Violet = no, if you attack now he will debuff anyone who attacks and it takes ages to go away.
Yellow = yes attack now, while he PoTing himself.
I am basing this experience for players on.. back in the day 2012, you would make two raid parties and go fight sub-avatar.. it was AWESOME fun, load of people whose level was prolly too low just went and destroyed him :) the above is an evolution of that idea.
Rewards:
Uncapped scaled armor.
Gold Plan for making old gold items into scaleable gold items.
Random FOS Pet trinket
Purple K (currancy)
*(the relevant faction PD or NC)
*(Daxamite equiv to Superboy)
*(like PZ FOS instance)
*(female kryptonian scientist who was trapped in the Phantom Zone, formerly Jor-El's assistant, now Alura's chief Scientist)
A clean version without grodd's troops. see below.
in fact the whole of Little Bohemia is 'cleaned'.
From Lex Luthor or Supergirl.
*Rhea-El Mon-El's mother. who would LOVE another planet to rule, as per the 'New Daxam' supergirl storyline, in our story Daxam still exists but 1/3rd of the whole planet is a burnt wasteland, like after a nuclear war would be here on earth.
*Power Girl and Mon-El have a S clasp for their capes.
*(changing vanilla auras would be easy to see)
I did a mockup of Superman's reverse outfit :

New Krypton II
New Krypton II
I actually have it all planned out in my head :D.. erm.. if anyone wants a read.. then read on. if not TL : DR :)
New Krypton II
Zod invades Metropolis
Duo
Ursa was spotted at Stryker's Island, and we are enlisted to investigate, outside we see charring of the building, and loads of dead mobs. the place has an eerie stillness/silence.
We enter Stryker's and follow the trail of destruction, inside the 'Doll Room' are many Kryptonian Guardsmen lead by Jax-Ur. He commands that the duo are vanquished, a fight ensues, and only when the duo win does he take part. Jax-Ur is smart, and in this story is Zod's chief scientist*, he uses both kryptonian technology and abilities against the duo, but after a hard fought battle, he was no match for the duo.
Further in to Strykers, the duo come across Ursa, she is with Grodd telling him that 'Zod has a plan', suprised by the duo she and Grodd attack. Once fought, Ursa and Grodd teleport away, as the duo barely escape with their lives, as Ursa has been on earth long enough to absorb much yellow sunlight, and her power shows this.
Alert
We receive a communication that Ursa, Grodd and Non have attacked Oa, and are trying to 'break IN to?!?' as Guy Gardner puts it, the Oan Science cells. We arrive and the ceiling has been ripped off and a stasis field put over the cells, many Lanterns of differing corps are trying to escape through the hole in the ensuing chaos, including Krona who instantly attacks the group and the corps follow his lead, after the fight, the stasis field destabilizes and a strong wind starts to move the group around and then suck them up into the Oan sky.
When above, the group sees what has been happening, Non has been fighting many GL's by creating whirlwinds and vacuums, and even though there must be around 40 GL's.. Non is winning. The GL's see the group and recognize they are powerful, if any of the group need it, a GL imbues them with the power of flight. After fighting Non, the group can see inside the cell chamber that Ursa, Grodd and someone else is making their escape, the group return to the chamber to foil whatever this 'plan' of Zod's is. The groups fight with the exception of the mysterious person, who is shrouded, halfway through Non recovers and joins the fight, the group win but barely, 'Ursa shouts at Non: Leave him! he has done his task.' And .. as the group arrests Grodd... he gently laughs.
Raid
Zod has decimated Centennial Park .. The Superman statue lays sadly on its side diagonally heat-visioned in two. The surrounding buildings have scorch marks on them, the team are joined by Superman, Supergirl, Powergirl, Superboy, Bizarro, Alura, Mon-El*, Martian Manhunter, giving us two sets of raid parties.
Zod has around 40 Kryptonian Guardsmen*.. everyone of them with a NAME. No red shirts here. This is Zod's Elite Guardsmen (and women, relax it's just a saying).
Zod shouts 'Kalel your experiment of kindness to these humans has failed, I have asked you many times to join me but still you resist, when will you take your rightful place as a prince of our people? never, as you love the animals, and champion them even in their filth* and idolatry'.. Superman answers ' I do believe in their right to *choose* who they are.. and I accept that I have not always shamed them for looking up to me, they needed a hero as every child does'..Zod replied..' you speak of choice and of children, but YOU are the one whom locked MY OWN SON away from ME and his mother! You speak like the animals! no thought, only emotion!' Superman is shocked, as he realizes what Zod and Ursa have done..
The whole scene explodes in battle.. Zod Ursa Non Jax-Ur, Zod's Elite Guardsmen.. and Lor-Zod!
The battle is furiously fought, Lor-Zod is MUCH more powerful than his parents*, Superman begs 'please..don't do this Lor!' .. but Lor answers ' You're quoting me when you send me away?? I begged you! hahah'
..when the battle is near fought, .. there was an important reason Bizarro was on the team, aside from being friends with Supes, Biz is immune to the full effects of Green Kryptonite, as is MM and Mon-El, Bizarro pulls out a huge chunk and flies at Lor-Zod and makes him eat it, while MM and Mon-El hold him down. With Zod's team exhausted they flee..
We have a scene.. Power Girl turns to Mon-El and says 'hey handsome!" Supergirl answers 'hey hands off!' Power Girl says 'I got enough kisses for everyone, relax.' then she blows a kiss at Supergirl. while Superboy says 'This is great, we're hardly ever together like this.. like a family.' Superman and Alura chuckle..
END of New Krypton II
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
*In many stories Jax-Ur is like Zod, I would suggest he pretends to be Zod to further Zod's cause, a body double where people are not sure what the original looks like. He just tells them he's Zod and they believe him. He is a capable fighter like Zod even though he is a scientist, and I would suggest him as a member of Non's original team on Krypton. Note, Non has been driven mad by both the Phantom Zone, and the Kryptonian Councils betrayal of him and Jorel, their betrayal meant billions of lives perished on Krypton, as Non and Jorel were the only two to tell the people the truth of Krypton's imminent destruction. Ursa was the next to find out when she interrogated Non and Jorel, many Kryptonians believing the Council's lies for a long time, she took the proof of Non and Jorel's discovery to Zod, which in turn led to a revolt on Krypton. Billions of lives could have been saved if the Council had approved Non and Jorel's plan for evacuation of Krypton, however even knowing the truth, they refused to sacrifice their technology, status and life-style.. A very flippant reason.. it was politically unsustainable, that if they led the evacuation of Krypton the remaining Kryptonians would have banished them to the Phantom Zone for losing Krypton in the first place.
*(Supergirl's Daxamite BF)
In DCUO I would make Daxamites the Healer equivalent to Kryptonian Tanks. both powersets the same Fire but balanced differently.
Superman = Tank/Everyone specifically not listed = DPS/Mon-El = Healer/Martian Manhunter = Controller. Krypto is guarding FOS. OR make him Iconic, a legends style Kryptonian with a pet of Krypto.
NPC's have proper health and defence, save knockouts and fully act like human group members.
*Zod also has a 'raid' party of 5 members but no proper healer or controller, a Tank who can also DPS while in Tank stance; Lor-Zod and the rest are DPS.. Lor-Zod =Tank / Zod = DPS / Ursa = DPS / Non = DPS / Jax-Ur = DPS except he uses supply drops for his raid parties support so Jax-Ur = DPS/Tech Support
* Filth = Krypton has a 'caste system' you are born into your job, it is assigned by your lineage. Zod believes in the system absolutely, and the thought of 'breeding for choice' disgusts him.
While Krypton has no 'monarchy' per se, of old both Daxam and Krypton did, Krypton changing to the caste system, but in this, there was still a council of Kryptonians who were held absolute in judgement, Jorel was one of those council members. the house of EL has many facets, and was the original house of Royalty, as it was on both Daxam and Krypton, this is why Mon-EL is a prince of Daxam. Even though Krypton has 'done away with' the royalty aspect of governance, it is still very present in the minds of Kryptonians, that should a member of the house of EL be of high prestige, he or she is STILL treated as royalty.
* He grew up on earth, Clark and Lois adopted him for a short time (4 years) but when he was 15yrs old he killed a fellow student in a moment of anger, Clark became afraid that he would get angry, snap and kill Lois, it was a cowardly move to send him to the Lanterns but he knew how powerful Lor-Zod was becoming, and its not like there are many places he could send him. sending him to the Phantom Zone would only reinforce Zod's control over Lor-Zod.

Throwback Elite.. suggestion..
Apr 8, 2017
Hi guys
I have been thinking about this for, idk, couple of years, but didn't say anything, because I didn't want to encourage stat clamping in anyway. For many players who are veterans and for newer players who missed out what it was like to play at launch or in the first year, I heard Jacob the Rebel on #askdcuo (see link, thx Trex!) ask about older content..
I have had this idea, for ages, the content could be scaled to end game and made elite, specifically, FOS 1,2 and 3 as one continuous instance, and Batcave 1,2 and 3 as one continuous instance.
Rewards would exclude green gear and include as a marked down, blue version to SM's purple, the pet trink rewards from SM's for the last boss.
You would not be rewarded ANY marks, but have a chance at each sub-boss to earn a blue scaling armor piece (FOS: Sunstone Bulwark/ Batcave: Vengeance) or Purple (FOS:Vesture of Proselyte /Batcave : Avatar Bombardier ). And upon the boss as I mentioned, you would receive the appropriate blue version SM reward, sub-bosses only drop armor, bosses only drop pet trinkets. Which pets you get would be random.
I would like to see this reset daily.. why? 'won't that cause scaling issues?'..not really because you have to be with 5 cr of max cr to enter, so much of the armor drops will be trash, except for the style and the pets. 'Shouldn't we keep the prestige of owning such a trinket for Survival Mode?' Players can easily inspect the trinket user and see he/she got the trink from Throwback Elite.. and really.. Throwback elite is meant to be 'epic'.. SM is grueling and rightly so.. Throwback Elite will be as hard as end game Elite content and be 3 times as long. So hard work like that deserves a decent reward eh?
It would appear much like Legends PVE in the Events Tab, but last 1 month then changing to the other raid. More raids of similar size could be added, like Lantern and HoF* content.
These would be for members ONLY.
The event I imagine would be easily scaleable to match max cr, meaning, once increased, it can be increased again by the same percentage once the max cr is higher. no stat clamping needed!
I played those raids at launch, i have some fond memories, some not so fond haha! (griefing on the troller) and I would love to feel that way again, stat clamping does not accomplish this, and only makes me humiliated, scaling the instances as a special elite event *ensures* I will have as a tough a time I did back at launch*, as will new players who did not get to have those experiences and felt they missed out.
If you like this idea, and I don't see why you wouldn't hehe, hit with a like to show your support.
have a great and bizarre day!
Sigma
* Trexlight's upload of #askdcuo
*A&B + Zama alert scaled to a raid then Blackest Day + Blackest Night (a black dawn combined with with a vengeance, and wayward souls upgraded to a raid)
*PC launch EU server, I joined in autumn 2011, didnt do my first raids til the next year hehe

I have had this idea, for ages, the content could be scaled to end game and made elite, specifically, FOS 1,2 and 3 as one continuous instance, and Batcave 1,2 and 3 as one continuous instance.
Rewards would exclude green gear and include as a marked down, blue version to SM's purple, the pet trink rewards from SM's for the last boss.
You would not be rewarded ANY marks, but have a chance at each sub-boss to earn a blue scaling armor piece (FOS: Sunstone Bulwark/ Batcave: Vengeance) or Purple (FOS:Vesture of Proselyte /Batcave : Avatar Bombardier ). And upon the boss as I mentioned, you would receive the appropriate blue version SM reward, sub-bosses only drop armor, bosses only drop pet trinkets. Which pets you get would be random.
I would like to see this reset daily.. why? 'won't that cause scaling issues?'..not really because you have to be with 5 cr of max cr to enter, so much of the armor drops will be trash, except for the style and the pets. 'Shouldn't we keep the prestige of owning such a trinket for Survival Mode?' Players can easily inspect the trinket user and see he/she got the trink from Throwback Elite.. and really.. Throwback elite is meant to be 'epic'.. SM is grueling and rightly so.. Throwback Elite will be as hard as end game Elite content and be 3 times as long. So hard work like that deserves a decent reward eh?
It would appear much like Legends PVE in the Events Tab, but last 1 month then changing to the other raid. More raids of similar size could be added, like Lantern and HoF* content.
These would be for members ONLY.
The event I imagine would be easily scaleable to match max cr, meaning, once increased, it can be increased again by the same percentage once the max cr is higher. no stat clamping needed!
I played those raids at launch, i have some fond memories, some not so fond haha! (griefing on the troller) and I would love to feel that way again, stat clamping does not accomplish this, and only makes me humiliated, scaling the instances as a special elite event *ensures* I will have as a tough a time I did back at launch*, as will new players who did not get to have those experiences and felt they missed out.
If you like this idea, and I don't see why you wouldn't hehe, hit with a like to show your support.
have a great and bizarre day!

In order of release

Gadgets Controller
Mental Controller
Nature Healer
Sorcery Healer
'New' Powers
GL/YL Lantern Controller
Electricity Healer
Earth Tank
Celestial Healer
Quantum Controller
Red Lantern Tank
Munitions Controller
Atomic Tank
Water Healer
When Water comes out, it'll be 5 x 5 x 5 with all classes equal.. however nice that sounds it totally bums me out that, i'd have to wait for a Lantern Healer. Will it be Shadow Tank then Cosmic Controller.. then Lantern Healer??
I was tired of waiting last year so ill probably not be here (DCUO) by the time it comes out. I enjoyed the rhythm of '2 new powers a year'. Atomic was the last powerset in Nov 2015.
I realize the stats revamp is coming, but after they broke my heart seeing DB removed infinite combos from GL/YL.. I am not looking forward to it, to say the least.
Endless Magic content also 'plagues' DCUO.. I think this game is no longer for me. I think I came here to write an article.. but had forgotten that this game should be avoided by me now. The 4000 hours of being league staff bearing down on me like a weight.. pushing me back to DCUO. I hope common sense prevails coz this game is making me more and more miserable. I will miss my friends and the ability to make new online friends...but I can't keep doing this to myself, the whole time i'm online in DCUO im thinking about Lanterns.. and all this magic content just makes it worse as i try to avoid thinking about how boring and hippy-ish magic is to me.
A while ago, I was leveling one of my chars, was level 11 or something, and wonder woman told me of my completed mission.. i thought 'wow that was some sexy acting..what kind of reward do you have back at the police station for me?'.. it struck me as odd that I had liked this, then I started to think about the Harley Quinn voice acting fiasco .. I was motivated to compliment Susan Eisenberg on twitter and to my surprise she liked it and wrote back, I didn't want to lose our WW too, and everything I said was true, I didn't lie.
The story of SigmaAtom's RP is an ongoing development.. and things and ideas change..but lets finally get this story told.
Long long ago in the future, The Spectre tries to take control of the entire Green Lantern Corps, thinking this would show him the justice he felt he needed at that time, but the Guardians fight back and overcome him, rejected he travels back in time, to create his own 'corps'. Billions of years in the past, he finds a small galaxy and taking 13 prime individuals, he gives them an axis of the fabric of reality.
OmegaAtom
Prime Principle of Organization
ZetaAtom AlphaAtom
Prime Principle of Fallacy Prime Principle of Reason
TeraAtom BetaAtom
Prime Principle of Chaos Prime Principle of the Ultra-Natural
GammaAtom DeltaAtom
Prime Principle of Reaction Prime Principle of Duty
ThetaAtom KappaAtom
Prime Principle of Forgotten Knowledge Prime Principle of Discipline
PhiAtom EpsilonAtom
Prime Principle of Self-Enrichment Prime Principle of Community
RhoAtom SigmaAtom
Prime Principle of Self-Reliance Prime Principle of Cooperation
Each one of these beings are OP, they have the power to shape reality, ...and Sigma is no exception. Being The Prime Principle of Cooperation, he can take names and make them into real persona's of himself, every powerset of DCUO and every armory Sigma has is all within him, Sigma Prime.
The Galaxy itself is a 'lighthouse' of balance sending out calm amongst the cosmos. very few races live there, and the ones who do, are at peace.
What happened?.. a war. Sigma was not the first Prime Principle of his kind, and amongst these ancients he is very young being only a few thousand years old, whereas many of them are millions of years old. The Prime of Cooperation was dying, and Sigma was chosen as his replacement.
Sigma did not harmonize with his compatriots quickly enough taking over ten years to master the arts, and still failing. Omega tried to help Sigma, but this 'disharmony' was agony to the other primes, and eventually Zeta's mind snapped and he killed Alpha, quickly joined by Tera who used his Chaos to kill as many as he could of the 'opposing' side.
Kappa and Epsilon were killed, while fighting back, Rho was deeply injured.
Sigma fled to earth, and found the Justice League Watchtower.. there he met new people who taught him the value of cooperation in a light he had never seen before.
Tera chased after Sigma with an idea to kill him, hearing this Beta followed Tera and found them both on Earth.
Back home in the galaxy..
Omicron, Secondary Principle of Disillusion, who was Omega's challenger should he fail, had taken over, Delta was fighting him emotionally but it was very difficult and painful for him. Omega was, of course, still alive and fighting for control, but with so much disharmony.. balance was an essential requirement.
Sigma has the power to generate another being, each one from a persona, and that being has the power to generate more beings from each armory, each persona has to have a lot of work put into it and crafted, as Sigma only gets back what he puts in.
I imagine going toe to toe with Brainiac, all 15 Sigma's with anywhere between 2 to 10 armories each. prolly about 50 Sigma's overall hehe, Sigma is a bit like FFVII Cloud Omnislash with all the swords.
Sigma Prime.
