How to make a Hero....????

HawkCXVII · March 2004

Perhaps someone can tell me if Im on the right track here..... I am using Boxhead's guide (http://hometown.aol.com.au/Boxhead6177/Freelancer/Power-Sets/by-archetype.htm) to try this and I'm not sure if it's completly right, but here goes.

From what I read you can have 2 primary powers ( well one Primary and one secondary). so my hero, we will call him Dark Nebula. First he is a scrapper so his first (primary) power will be Shadow Fighting. 2ND will be Dark armor. Now my understanding is these will be the only powers he gets. From the Primary and 2nd sets. Then I will choose he's real powers as I level. At level 2 we will get (and this is just a guest) a shadow maul (if its avalible at level 2) and I will get Dark Embrace at the next level. So I will choose back and forth from these Specializations untill I reach max level. I also understand at level 3 or 5 ( i Have read 2 different things) I can choose from the Power Pool, so I get Telly. But do I get to choose flight after that or just one from that pool. I think this is right but Im just guessing from what I have read. One thing I would like to know, Will my shadow Maul get stronger? will I have to put more points/levels to it. I know noone really know how it work, and those that do will not say, but what do you think, am I close or way off

Fly

The basic power that gives a hero the power of flight. Flight requires endurance to maintain, lack of endurance will cause the power to fail making your hero fall from the air.

There's gonna be tons of heroes falling from the sky on a regular basis.

Seriously, lets say you create a scrapper so his first (primary) power will be Shadow Fighting. 2ND will be Dark armor. You will gain more powers for your Power Sets. It will go shadow punch, then smite, then shadow maul, so on and so forth until you get to the highest power of midnight grasp. Along the way you will be able to specialize in you powers. You can add range, damage, and accuracy to a move you want to specialize in. With the specializtion even if someone else creates a character similar to yours, the powers could be worlds apart. I cannot say how many pool sets you can have , because I don't know. Hope this helped.
