Zombie Man

Here are Faces 1-13 as they existed shortly after CoV was released (included are Hostile 1-5 and Scarred 1-6).

Those faces are still there with the addition of other neutral stance faces. The ones currently in the creator, if they are more shade-y can probably be chalked up to high resolution ultra mode.

Group Fly and Team Teleport, by themselves, are unworkable for travel powers -- they both suffer from drop outs.

However, they do work well in a mission for tactical advantages.

*Together* they do work well as a Travel power for pets/teammates since the Group Fly stops the extras from falling. But, you have to take 4 prerequiste powers to get both of them. I've been asking for the prerequisites to be dropped, or at lease reduced to one power each so that they can be taken together to make up for the eachother's shortcomings.

Ya, definitely petition support to undelete those characters.

If people quit because of these downtimes, then they probably have also given up driving due to all that downtime at the pump.

Ford owes me money for the times I couldn't drive my car because it was gassing up.

Yes. We can talk about it.

Here's all the content a new F2P player can't access:

• Preatoria
• First ward arcs (seven arcs)
• Signature Story arcs (which is just one blue- and red-side for now)
• Incarnate trials and TFs

That's it. Only the last one can't be purchased a la carte. You seemed to be unnaturally drawn to gated content and thus it seems like this is a widespread problem. It isn't. 80% of the game is accessible to freebies.

So,

1. Before you take Free/Premium friends on that content, check to see if they purchased it first.
2. As you recruit people for that content, remind them it's not for Premium players unless they purchased it or earned it through the Reward Program.

This is no different than when we were running Apex or Tin Mage and had to remind folks it's only for those who've unlocked their incarnate slot.

For quick access to turning them on and off:

/optiontoggle X

Where X is...

• ShowPlayerBars
• ShowPlayerName
• ShowPlayerRating
• ShowPlayerReticles
• ShowSupergroup
• HidePetNames
• ShowOwnerName

I'll leave it as an exercise to our gentle readers to form appropriate macros, binds, or popmenus.

1. If they're hitting your zombies, you're not using your Secondary, Dark Miasma, to its full potential, which is Debuffing your foes' ToHit. And when they do get hit, you're not using your Area of Effect heal, Twilight Grasp to its full potential, which means getting into or near melee range with your minions.

2. You want Tar Patch to be up for every fight. 3 slot it with Recharge Reduction. Get Hasten and 3 slot that with Recharge Reduction.

3. Darkest Night should always be used along with Fearsome Stare to neuter the foes. Direct the zombies to take out foes one at a time leaving your Darkest Night anchor for last.

4. Shadowfall will provide extra defense and resistance for you and your pets... another reason to stay close to them.

5. If you want the sure and steady route, get TP Foe and slot it with range and accuracy. Pull the lieutenants to you (and around a corner) into a Tar Patch. Fun times will ensue.

If a Freebie gets to 50 with only SOs, and doesn't have access to Incarnate Content... why would they even want to tweak out their build with HOs?

Exactly. Just how hard is it to run to Pocket D between missions?

And it's a favor to those who haven't done it yet, so that they actually know about Null and the options the divine gull offers.

Skulls can't read. It's the failure of the Paragon education system which has led to their illiteracy and subsequently, their delinquency. Oh, they "pretend" they know how to read, because they're deep-down insecure and sublimate their unrequited desire to be loved with peer approval, but alas, the poor souls are caught in a self-perpetuating cycle of failure in the social contract.

I was saddened to learn that CoH:Freedom meant we weren't restarting the game from Issue 1.

Just how old are you?

You can cycle through which of your accounts is subbed until they all hit the reward plateau in which they all have access to the Market.
