I find it amazing that a game that has:
- 12 different archetypes
- 5,160 archetype combos in a given team (7! + 5!).
- At least 16 primary/secondary combos for each of those ATs,
- You do the rest of that math
Plus, of course, the variations of powers, taken at different levels, plus all the power pools that are available (four extra plus an epic) over the 20-odd slots that each person gets. Plus enhancement choices. Plus play style and experience and tactics and native intelligence. Plus type of missions preferred and/or pursued. Plus luck. Plus variations between PvP and PvE. Plus …
I find it more than amazing, I find it nigh miraculous that the damned game has any semblance of balance, let alone such that people can bitch all day on the boards over how their one favorite power remains / has been / will be nerfed (or just be underpowered compared to someone else’s).
I mean, really, people. We’re talking variations in possibilities along the lines of “Which wavelength of blue do you think looks better on me, 4700 or 4012 Angstroms?”
