This is an exciting week, Heroes! Lots going on, so this episode is our longest. Buckle up and enjoy!

Then, because we don’t know when enough is enough, we allow ourselves to have a feature discussion after being inspired by questions from a listener. We discuss powers and enhancement slotting as we prefer them.

Promo: Geek Acres

Next episode: Scheduled to be a News episode. If there is no news we will discuss the defender/healer roles as requested by a listener!

Actually we’re calling it Episode 4.5 as it completes the main topic “Powers” from last episode.

There wasn’t any significant news this week either, which added to the shortness (wait, is that an oxymoron?)

This ep we cover:

  • A brief explanation of content that was cut
  • One correction
  • Target selection
  • Power activation methods
