Lots of things being updated.
*Lots*. -
Well, the whole tutorial and beginning zone arcs are being re-written, so, we'll see how the Devs do telling the story that newbies need to know.
-
Before the last adjustment to the reward table, there were quite a few complaints of people getting the Thread booby prize even though they were very active in the Trial. I've not heard of such complaints since then. The Devs acknowledged that there were some player activities that weren't counting toward the reward table, but they have fixed that.

Wait, I though the HP cap for heavy melee types was somewhere in the 3-4k range.
So you're saying this Bobcat swings for roughly twice a tank's hp in damage, pre-mitigation?
That's why on a Tin Mage TF my Dark Defender will happily take the Alpha Strike of every single spawn in the TF except for hers. "OK, Tanker, go get her. I got your Rez all ready!"
Don't forget that -Dam debuffs also reduce her damage output. And she only does that damage if she lands the hit in the first place. Ideally, you let pets take the alpha strikes until you can stack all your debuffs on her. Phantom Army is ideal for this. -

I doubt we'll be celebrating 2 anniversaries. The anniversary celebrations for CoV only happened once.
And it's not really a relaunch. The game isn't stopping. -
You won't. It's purposely exclusive to a real-life, made-from-trees magazine. It's not web content at all.

I think posting pics from the article is against forum rules unless someone from the CoH community team wants to clarify this.
Ummm.. if you get why they've done it, they you should get why they won't be putting this info on the forums (or facebook) for a while. By granting exclusive scoops to certain publications, they ensure that said publication will publish stuff about CoH and give the game free publicity in the meantime. The publication gets an exclusive and prestige and more sales out of it.Quote:Originally Posted by Dr_MechanoEU
Would be nice if one of the community guys could share these pictures because...as mentioned...that's the US edition of PC Gamer, not the UK edition so some of us can't even buy the magazine just to see the pictures.
I get why they've done it...
This info will eventually be on the forums before I21 goes Live. But for now, it's an exclusive found in only one place. Purposely so as a previously stated policy by the OCRs. -
Maybe they cut it out because it's very much not what happened in the book.

As mentioned, the +END PRoc isn't guaranteed when hit by -rec either.
If you're hit by Recovery Shutdown, the Regular Enhancement has zero percent chance of helping you - you are *guaranteed* it will do *nothing* for you. The Proc has a greater than zero chance of helping you; and while you're not *guaranteed* it will go off when you want it to... it still may do so, which the Enhancement will *never* do. One of these is empirically better than the other.
And it turns out that the one that is better than the other when Recovery is shutdown is also better for Recovery *on average over time*.
This really should be a 'no brainer.' I think people's observation bias where they can see periods of time when the proc isn't going off, but would like it to, reinforces 'bad feelings' about RND events and thus they are shying away from the Proc.
If you want the Min/Max, logical, statistical, and mathematical better option, you go with the Proc over the Enhancement. -
Quote:Ah, but the Proc can do something that 'guaranteed' +END can't... give you END when Recovery is shut down by some foe's debuff. For you see, 'guaranteed' Recovery ain't always guaranteed.Originally Posted by BrandX
Not that I'm saying go against the Proc suggested.
However, I will say putting just a lvl 50 ENDREC IO in the spot at least promises the .18 endrec.
I've gone 30+ seconds without any of my 3 +END Procs firing. So, the RNG can hate you at some points, and you sound to be relying on just 1.
That said, it becomes a personal choice imo. I'd suggest trying to find at least 1 more slot and 2 slotting for best of both

Keyes Reactors had powered the entire East Coast of the U.S. at one time.
Hamidon came up through Mexico then Cole fought it off (more of a standstill). Praetoria was build over the spot Cole beat it back.
Praetoria is also build over a river which is an important transportation hub.
The homeless guy does rather specifically cement Praetoria in the former USA.
Marauder led gangs in the West and was summoned Eastward to Praetoria.
So... best indicators put it some where in the Southeast U.S. over a major river. Could be north of New Orleans on the Mississippi or any major river East of the Mississippi that empties into the Gulf of Mexico or the Atlantic. -
Cryptic has tried twice to create a free-form power building system and wound up both times creating a class sytem instead, although, they'll only admit to one being a class system.

I know some Hybrid model and Free-to-Play games allow their users to purchase store points with funds from their Steam Wallet. Is there any possibility of this being supported for Freedom? It seems like it might be a worthwhile option to consider.

If my fly pack runs out of time in a mission, I pull up the /auctionhouse interface, buy the fly pack recipe and its components, then I call out my portable crafting table and make a new one.

In general, the rule for Praetoria has always been that rather than be a mirror of our world where everything is there but opposite, most elements of Praetoria are mash ups, where different forces that combined in one way on Primal Earth recombined in a completely different way on Praetoria.

I suspect you're running into a bug of some kind, probably one that hits you for 99% of your uncapped hit points by mistake.
So, it should be /bugged since the last tick of DoT is supposed to hit for 99%.
To the OP: As far as whether it should or not: What is debt to you at level 50? Is your league really incapable of killing AM if he heals to full?
If you really, really not want to be killed from it, the league needs teamwork and prep (especially with Macros to announce you're the target of disintegration) and you need a tray of greens. And crafting and slotting Rebirth is a huge boon.
And not running around like a loon as if you can outrun disintegration so that healers with AoE heals can heal you (not directed at you... just the loons out there).
