Quote:Hmm Case AND Point? Pretty impressive considering stalkers do more damage by using their inherant to crit 3 to 6 times more often, when on a full team, than a scrapper. That damage is not including the initial AS or start off attack with a gauranteed crit. Though, one attack every 10 seconds plus a bonus crit from placate every 30s (if they 3 slot lvl 50 IO's) works too.Originally Posted by je_saist
Yes, multiple players on this forum do not like being told that they are bad players and outright dangerous for playing like idiots. Case in point, stalkers that try to land continuous and consistent melee damage rather than stalking.
I'm not that familiar with contollers, but i'd be a little dissapointed if they weren't in melee range, using their pbaoes. Though they're free to do what they want.Quote:Originally Posted by je_saist
Controllers that try to play in scrapper range.
First, griefing aside, any playstyle is acceptable, as this is just a game. Second, Fine, I'm about to tell you YOUR wrong, because you make sweeping, incorrect generalizations about players and archetypes that are just plain wrong. If someone is playing a Arachnos soldier without TT: Manuvers I'll suggest they pick it up as it is an amazing power, but to tell them they are wrong in how they play their game? That's arrogant and rude.Quote:Originally Posted by je_saist:2365927At some point players have to be told what they are doing is wrong... and too many players honestly believe that there is nothing that can be done in the game that is wrong.
Because they arn't a buffbot and they enjoy killing not handing out goodies.Quote:Originally Posted by je_saist:2365927I would have a very different viewpoint. I'd be asking why the Fire / Kin wasn't staying with the group and passing out SB and ID.
Not up for debate? Established fact? That was not Established fact, it was assumption and opinion stewed in superiority and eliteism.Quote:Originally Posted by je_saist:2365927And no, this isn't up for debate, so don't even try it. This is established fact, get over it. -
Quote:I dont know about the clockwork king, but since neuron and anti-matter made the praetorian clockwork (comic 16 page 14), im gonna guess, if it exists, it's just a bigger badder janitor or central control hub and not much more.Originally Posted by The_Killbot_5000
So it's been stated by Hero1 that Praetoria has no Clockwork King? Hrmm. Are there any other details you can give me about what was said of the Clockwork King?
Interestly the clockwork in the comics look a bit different than the ones in the video I saw. Though just about everything praetorian looks different in the comic than in that video.

Quote:Gauntlet works with most attacks (An example of an attack without taunt would be burn, which acctually repels enemies.Originally Posted by Sylph_Knight
* Question: Does it activate when you use Taunt or only with attacks? How about with self-buffs? I believe it only works on secondary power set abilities but how about those that don't do damage? Call it morbid curiosity.
). This is because Gauntlet is just a taunt effect that has been added by hand to the various attacks that a tanker can select. Though its not just secondary set attacks that get Gauntlet. Some primary sets; such as, Dark, Fire, and Shield have attacks within them that also have a taunt effect. Power pool attacks, iirc, also have a taunt effect for tankers.
I always thought it would be cool if tanker attacks were irresistable. It would fit well with the idea of the "irresistable force" title that tankers have. Of course it wouldn't work for the attacks to be 100% irresistable all the time, so I came up with a Gauntlet meter idea.
The meter would fill up from 0-100 and however full the meter is, that is the percentage of your attack damage that is irresistable. So if your meter was at 50 and you attacked for 20 damage against an enemy with 50% resist, you would deal 15 damage. With 50% of the damage being irresistable, 10 of the damage is guaranteed and the other 10 damage is reduced by 50% due to enemy resistance. A completely full Gauntlet meter means 100% irresistable damage.
The meter would increase by being near enemies at a chosen interval, with minions giving 1 point at the chosen interval, lieutenants giving 2 points per, Bosses 3, Elite bosses 4, and finally Archvillains and Giant Monsters give 5.
If done right, attacks would not need to have their damage adjusted to increase the damage a tanker does. Additionally tanker's could continue to recieve the same ammount of buffs. Increasing Solo-play utility, and reducing some of the redundancy issues
Just another idea to toss into the mix.

Quote:Bah, aura's are my achilles' heel. I'll pack as many in as I can so long as it fits thematically. Thanks for that bit of information, it will keep me from deleting the arc out of blind rage.Originally Posted by Techbot Alpha
Don't give hostages or spawns guarding a killable NPC damage auras.
They activate as soon as you are on the map.
It took me a while to realise why one of the hostages in Heart of Steel Pt1 was arriving with no spawn while the NPC lines showed their had been one. Until the time I saw his lightning field killing them all off in short order. -
Quote:Hey, guess who's back. I was gonna play for a while then start posting after my undeserved overconfidence came back, as I had to take a break, but i'll be damned Sam if you didn't just say the magic words right here.Originally Posted by Samuel_Tow
I've noticed a lot of... Odd spawn behaviour recently. Spawns and encounters will trigger as soon as I load into an instance, even if they're half-way across the map. They'll play their dialogue, even start their fights LONG before I'm even close enough to see their speech bubbles.
Yesterday when I was designing my first mission architect arc. I noticed that many, non health bar, triggered events were immediatly initiated when I entered the zone. Events that trigger at a specific object health worked beautifly, but hostage and ally events all initiated immediatly upon entry of the map. I didn't /bug it because I thought that it was just the architect, but if others are noticing this outside the architect then it may actually be a bug.

This is awesome.
Blazing Boneshot Spine/fire scrapper:
A young boy with leukemia, is saved by a genetic mutation. The eight year old is kidnaped, and his family and doctors killed, by men in black suits. For the next six years, he is attacked mercilessly by the men and women with the black suits. He learns to manipulate his skeletal structure, and that his bone marrow combusts when exposed to oxygen. After the six years, he is released into the gaurdianship of the paragon protectors until he is 18, when he escapes. He would have died were it not for the arival of the vindicators. He now fights to protect, not kill.

...please
i'm currently taking screenshots for the create a character contest, and i'm having a little trouble with the bio.
the problem is when i use the /info command and resize my bio so i can see it all. it will not show up in the final screenshot, in fact none of the UI is visible in the final screenshot. even if the entire screen is littered with ui pieces they dont show up in the final shot.
this is making the job of getting a screenshot of my bio very difficult. so i would appreciate any advice that can be given.

Firstly, the version of photoshop doesn't really matter that much. Once layers were introduced, the rest has been pretty much candy. I've been using Photoshop since version 2 (I currently use CS3 - or Photoshop 13), and everything from version 7 and up will do the job.
[/ QUOTE ]
this might be a stupid question but i was looking at the software bundles that they have with the tablets, and most come with photoshop elements 4. Is that at the level of photoshop 7? I wouldn't have thought so as 4<7 but in one of the bundles you get elements 4 and a brush pack that requires photoshop 7 or greater so i got confused.

Thanks!
I was worried that with the color pencils i used lots of the image would be lost to scanner hell. Glad it's still recognizable.
how does this one look? its William Valence, based off of this screenshot
at the moment i'm practicing, and i feel like a copy machine. Just drawing everything I see as close as i can to the original.

bio:
he is a Fire/Kin corruptor, who was born the exact moment that the hitching post, a star near the system the kheldian home system, went supernova and was destroyed. this coincidentally was the same moment that the statesman and lord recluse opened pandora's box. he became the hitching post for this dimention giving him full control over the laws of physics. this disruption of physics is stronger as he maintains contact with his target. though it get more powerful if his opponent is very strong as he can continue to drain their energy.
he is closely related to the origin of superpowers, and has hinted that should superpowers ever be suppressed fully. in ways similar to lord recluses attack on heroes, or how superpowers were suppresed back in the roman times, he would have a method of returning them.
he is a person of unimaginable power though his only goal is to exist in order to maintain the laws of physics. though recently he has gotten bored in his lengthy life and to spice things up has taken to robbery. honestly he doesnt care about what he steals, he just wants to fight the police and heroes. often if the fight is good enough he will forget to bring his stolen loot with him.
his most recent battle (in his fictional storyline) he battled a newly freed rularuu in the streets of steel canyon. this battle was his most dangerous ever, and the first he didn't enjoy.
the battle raged as the two cosmic beings leveled the city of steel canyon. William warping the laws of thermodynamics and kinetic energy on a near endless scale thanks to the redy source of power he could siphon from rularuu, and Rularuu using his godlike power to smash, pummel, and ravage (ha, puns). eventually rularuu was forced to return to the shadow shard as William had the advantage of home territory. though william understands that should the battle ever take place in the shadow shard he would lose as easily as rularuu did. After the battle william temporaraly removed many of the laws of physics in order to speed up the restoration of steel canyon, as he felt guilty for destroying it. it took two weeks to restore the zone with his help.
he is one of the few people concidered as an ally and an enemy of every major hero and villain group that exists.
william's immence power is only rivaled by his complete lack of interest in any power struggle found in his home dimension. he perfers to stay out of the affairs of these people, instead seeking the thrill of individual fights and refusing to assist any individual group. he doesn't have any personal goals except to siply exist, though he will stand against the shadow shard as they intend to destroy his dimension and his pourpose.
his favorite powers are Siphon power and Fireball his "signature power" is the ability to change kinetic energy to potential energy the moment something touches him. and an almost endless ability to get stronger so long as he has power to take from an enemy.
thanks for anything you decide to do
