    That's true, PRAF could have implied it was like a race between Bolt, and an old lady in a shopmobility scooter

    I'm still annoyed at missing the all troller STF - pfft fancy posting on the troller board (Cynic points finger at you !!!).

    They kept it within the clique that time

    Have spoken this up around the water cooler, so to speak. Should be able to get 2 more. But tbh, can easily run it with the team as is, and it should be good fun. See you in a few hours

    each chapter of 30-40 euro, against the 12 euro per month, makes the fee extremely useless.
    it's the "top of my head" comparison of 20x more ppl playing the game.
    9000000 = monthly fee per 5 months (12 euro per month)
    800000000 = free with 20.000.000 ppl (40 euro per expansion every 6 moths)
    88000000 = free with 2.000.000 ppl (40 euro every 6 months per expansion)
    all did that with a calculator, in case you're conna talk smart again.(in case you try at least)
    still not much?

    The Ghordian Knot comes out again. Think NCNC *really* missed out on that delightfully thought through and accurate prediction. How foolish they are

    *Edit : Re-reading it I just realised Valk also suggests the Dark Astoria co-op thing. That makes it offically the bestest suggestion ever made in terms of new content

  5. If nobody signs up, I can put a shout out in a few Global channels if you like? That sort of time is pretty much when we'd run this on impulse anyway, so should hopefully rope in at least one vict...i mean, teammate :P
  6. Pretty much all four arcs of Vernon Von Grun are so humorously narrated that I had to keep a paramedic on standby

    ...also the cut scene on the last mission on Viridian's arc = priceless

    All of this, /Signed

    Edit: one to add: Be allowed to set your own level cap on matches, so if someone is levelling a toon, they don't have a +3 level gap from their opponent(s) while keeping an essential power or two. etc
  10. To expand on Techbot_Alpha's point, all the current sets have at least 1 very unique power that works wonderfully with the set:

    Gang War
    Smoke Bomb
    Soul Extraction

    etc.

    With the MM damage multiplier, and the sheer lack of practical usage found in the attacks, compared to the more active MM secondary sets (leaving aside for the moment actualy tactful MM usage), putting some ill thought out pets with a bunch of fire/ blaster ports = fail

    It's 1AM on a Sunday night, and your topic title basically calls to scrap one of the things that makes this game more accessible than the plethora of Korean grindathons and Everquest clones.

    Mild sarcasm was a pleasant surprise, I was expecting full on flaming.

    Resistan means you will still be affected by -fly, but it will wear of quicker.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Ah, that makes a lot of sense. Ta PRAF
  14. [ QUOTE ]
    It does say "resistant", not "immune". Try looking up [Hover] and [Quicksand] and compare numbers.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Heck, i looked up [Hover] before posting, had nothing in the detailed info about it. As Col. said, if anything it's resistant. Caltrops and Quicksand are still going to sting, whereas I presume some MA/ attacks of 1 stack of web grenade won't instantly drop you from the sky
  15. It used to bug so that it bypassed KB effects. Powers like quicksand and icepatch also didn't have a height component. Both of the above have been changed in recent patches.

    Hover grants fly, and +def. Nothing more
  16. Again, looks fine.

    DE don't debuff you, they buff their own tohit with the Quartz eminators. Make a bind to target them first with the patron ranged attack or somesuch and you'll be fine
  17. Depraiving Mumsie of the honours! How Cruel!

    And players who actually read the existing status markers and the notes would be useful too.

    Good point, have suffered from this a few times, hence why just set myself to "Hide from Searches" these days.

    I have another Bug.

    I cant equip my Genin Ninja Pets ( the lowest ones ) anymore. They used to get a Quiver on their back, and the training Buff Icon. Now the Buficon just disapears, and there is no Quiver.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    They no longer have the bow powers. They were changed for Shuriken and Exploding Shuriken.

    The patch following also removed the quiver from the costume, to better suit the power changes

    WAI (apart from the buff icon thing, I guess. But they still get the power...at least my Ninjas do)
  21. [ QUOTE ]
    They have long recharges and don't last nearly as long as the single-target holds.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Initially

    Domination, Power Boost, Megalomaniac, Glacier....

    *goes downstairs to make a coffee while Jack does the rest*
  22. Depends on the Set, to be honest.

    Bless my Ice domi, she has no psuedo hold like fire (Immob & Stun), so the mass hold is pretty essential if you want to get some hard control in on the team...otherwise it's just ice patch, slows, popping lucks like they're going out of fashion.

    ..that or mass sleep..because *so* many teams work well with sleep powers, right?

    I find it's useless on my fort, and mind/ sets, as cone fear, mass sleep, mass fuze = up faster, just as good.

    All in all, as I say, depends. My domi's recharge is stupid high, so I'm using glacier almost every second mob, and few other powers make me smile as much. However, i hate hate hate flash on my illu/ troller, as the recharge, base acc, and everything about it is dumb.

    Can't offer any sweeping generalisations i'm afraid Except that on a Fire/ take if it you can fit it in, certainly helps to have it if your ghetto-hold doesn't do the trick
  23. Congratulations on not succumbing to fatal injury this year, Jay!
  24. What're you planning to farm?

    As much as I love my /SR brute, if it's large mobs of Nems, the +tohit will squash you. If it's CoT demons, the +acc will squash you etc.

    But regardless:

    The build itself looks pretty good. Nothing I can add to it, and no glaring flaw that I can see. Best of luck to you
