  1. I've observed an abnormally large number of suggestions being placed outside of Suggestions in the last week. Did I miss a memo again?
  2. I have so many characters I have absolutely no need for this. I would not pay for this. Ever.

    I don't understand what I'm supposed to be doing here. That I can do a BAF without Group Fly? Errr...

    Also, my main (Aggelakis, Emp/Arch Defender) is pretty much entirely HOs (some white IOs where SOs used to be). What am I supposed to be proving? That I can BAF with the best of 'em? Yes, I can.
  4. Just to note, changes were made to make the first four incarnate levels soloable. Not 'the entire incarnate process' - cos otherwise the iTrials would be soloable too, since they're part of the process.

    One time I was playing my TA/A Defender on a team with an Empath. Now normally on my TA/A I don't use EMP Arrow all the time, I tend to save it for when the team needs a bit of a boost. However in this case I noticed that whenever I used EMP Arrow the Empath would see my endurance drop a lot and immediately use Adrenalin Boost on me. End result: I used EMP Arrow whenever it was up for the rest of the Task Force.
    This is how I operate with my AB. If you have no endurance, all you can do is brawl. That **** is whack, yo. Have some endurance++!

    (Unless there is a Granite user on board, then they get AB because the recharge for them is monstrously delicious. They can attack like a normal character! But that doesn't happen often, cos Granite isn't needed in most content, so AB gets spread around to the endurance abusers.)

    -------------------

    I had a feeling from my first post that the OP's was a "pure healer" complaint. Good to see I've still got my radar.
  6. I see Pebblebrook hasn't seen Arcanaville's awesome Super Pack Revenue post.

    That makes no sense. First, my build should not be the issue here. How I make my character is not the point. If it were, then the devs should REQUIRE you to take more than one offensive power. Otherwise, why require you to take any offensive powers at all? Second, the issue should not be my build at all. I, and my team, have COMPLETED the event. That should award the badge. Third, the issue should not be how I play my character. If I did nothing but heal and buff another character all the way through, then I have done just as much as that character to accomplish the mission.
    If my empath went through it on a duo and got the badge just fine, the only difference would be the number of attacks you made vs number of attacks I made. Thus the argument is "you shot yourself in the foot by not taking more attacks" - buffs and heals aren't weighted as high as attacks. So take more attacks.
  8. UD was never banned, he's popped in once in a while.
  9. Hey, atomicdeath, I'm not sure if you noticed, but we have a Suggestions & Ideas forum down a few from here. It's pretty cool. It's where you put suggestions.

    The bubble indicate load, which Freedom can handle more of, having more hardware.
    During the migration to a single server listing (merging NA/EU lists), or perhaps sometime before that, the servers are now all virtualized. They have a giant amount of space/bandwidth/whatever and each individual server will use as much or as little as it needs of that whole.
  11. Yep. Just put CohBeta where it says CohTest.

    But if the snipe hits live as is, then the game is no longer balanced around SO's in mind.
    "One power being helped by IOs" != "the game is balanced around IOs". Solo stuff doesn't count; the devs see this as an MMO, with the "massively" part being emphasized here. Two people can easily get each other to instasnipe. All instasnipe means is that Leadership>Tactics is going to get infinitely more common.

    Well, if they left because those two require extra unlocks, then the fault IS THEIR OWN, not the game's, not other player's, no one else's but THEIR OWN. Why? Because it's spelled out in TWO DIFFERENT POPUPS during the unlock process if a character has multiple locks on it. All required unlocks are spelled out on a locked character, regardless of how many locks are on the character.

    I sincerely wish people would stop regurgitating this misinformation that somehow got out there.
  14. 4. Already possible. Null the Gull allows you to turn off group fly effects. I just saved you $10!
    5. Already half possible, you can buy 2 lots of 10 enhancement spaces on the market for $20 each. There's 2 more lots on Beta, no telling when/if those will ever make it live though.
  15. No, only Empaths with one attack are shortchanged. I had absolutely no issue on my Emp I ran through there, but I am not expecting other people to pick up my part of the killing. I actually took my attacks.
  16. Try turning off sending buff information. It's in the first tab of options, about halfway down.
  17. The Water Blast effects are freakin' phenomenal, I don't know what you're talking about.

    The slot unlocking process warns you twice that you need to unlock the character archetype. Don't see why there needs to be a second lock icon when the lock just means "this character isn't available to play for some reason". Even if it's two reasons. Still same result.

    Quick Question

    Fly around approximately center of Hamidon (and up really high because his attacks are lllooonnnggg range) and type /loc into chat until you are at (-4, any height, -2180). Turn off flight and fall onto badge marker. Die horribly, but get badge!
  20. Until they figure out a way to make it look good, it ain't happening.

    Not necessarily. The Rikti War is also often referred to as the "First Rikti Invasion". (The second being the I10 RWZ revamp event, and the subsequent invasions at the end of LGTF aren't really referenced in official lore.)

    The Hollowing happened in 2000, the first Rikti invasion started in 2002.

    No idea about Woodvale.
