NOTES:
This is what I feel would make many Heroes better and balanced in my opinion. I do not care if you do not agree.
Please, however, feel free to post asking for Explanations of unclear ideas, my Thoughts on certain ideas, or other Ideas that you feel like would fit or be better
Yes, I also spelled Guarantee incorrectly, but I'm too lazy to go back and fix them. I also use Uninterruptible Stance and Hyperarmor interchangeably. I also don't feel like Bolding things either, so pay attention.
