Yeah, TV was amusing

Although he taunted me with the glowmaps on armour...he then made up for it by being villainous to GG

The dirtiest fight in recorded history was witnessed by very few and happened between Nitoichi and Columbia. It was a bit of a grudge match and since Columbia is stronger and possibly faster than Ni, Ni pulled out every dirty trick in the book. I enjoyed that so much, but seriously... not exactly PG13.
Chat logs or it didn't happen?
Pfehehe I kid, I kid
sounds nasty though
And I didn't mean dirty fighting as much as dirty banter, knowing what Leon is like

I believe Posi and the others were wishing the little Techbot would shut up and stop bugging them about re-vamping old content
And I conspired somewhat with the Television...sorta >_> *shrug*
The horse was damn cool.
Someone ask BaBs why 5/7 of the female chair and bench sit emotes are ALL the same! -
TV and Posi were bailing as I left, TV going to compel The Servers to get back to work

Also, an add on for anyone that misses it, because I did at least three times;
Save it to desktop and then run as admin if you are using Windows 7!
I got three errors, trying to run it, save then click it and updating via the automatic updates. Then I remembered, for some reason, it HAS to be run as admin to work. And it replaced the old version just fine when it did.
In case people make the same mistakes I did ^^; -
Quote:Why did WW and Doc Aeon, the two I really want to talk to, have to be on from 5-6...the time it takes for my Uni net to unlock and let me on City of? (I cant game until after 6, basically...cos its **** like that)On the plus side, the EU test server has the devs visiting us in the next 50 minutes
Hope to get new info out of them 
Gonna be kinda miffed if I end up missing them... -
Hmm...ok, I'll bite; what does it do? And is there much point using it on a 9800 GT? I can get fairly decent UM levels out of it, but with a slight dip in speed from what Live has at the moment.
Would this doohicky help? And is it potentially harmful, or an actual Nvidia driver? -
...Damn. Now I just picture a fight between Liz and Leon. Dirtiest fight-talk in history? Probably...
Although it ain't happening until I IO that sucker

Bases had doors at all? Ever? Oo
Want. Really flipping want now, please.

Maybe it's a sign that Union is a nice place, when I really only recall a few incidents of kicking / being kicked happening?

There's been a few times I wish I'd had the start so I could kick certain people...like the Bots/FF fail lord of Union (who if you've met him, you will know him) who seemed to forget to re-upgrade his pets and didn't have a clue how to use FF...on an ITF no less...Ugh. Bad day that was. -

Rage and one the whole SS work fine as they are. I'd say leave it alone; if it isn't broken, and can't be improved on, leave it alone.

I'mma agree with Birdies last post. This is the danger with making characters CP level. So much so that, in light of that post, I wouldnt really consider any of mine that level.
Examples?
Alpha; He's as cunning as a robo-fox and commands what ammounts to a six-robot army. And he has an orbital railcannon. But; get him on his own and, while he can beat an average baseline human, he's get the bolts beaten out of him by even a veteran soldier. Reason (the railcannon) is powerful, but very limited use; he saves that for hitting things like large mobs, AV/Heroes and the like (I use warburg missiles as 'ammunition'). He also daren't risk using it too much, in case someone gets a bead on it; it cost a lot of time and money for him to make, something even he couldnt recoup in a hurry.
Leon DeFeurard; a medieval era Vampire Lord and Sire of the DeFeurard bloodline. He's stupidly hard to keep dead and, even if you blew his head off, he'd just go and stick it back on. He also trained out the weaknesses of crossing water, direct sunlight and holy icons (not to say that he doesn't burn in even dim light, and never tans, and holy icons make his eyes itch.)
He also has next to no command over the undead, limited if any ranged capability and less magical skill than most other vampires. He relies instead on his high healing factor and his skill with his katana. That and teleporting in and out of fights if needs be.
Of course, out damage his healing factor and he's looking at a long sleep for the next couple of hundred years.
I think possibly the nearest to CP I have is Lord Atom, who I wanted to be the typical, insane Archvillain. He's an irradiated, headcase mess, wearing clunky power armour to contain the radiation that both drives him, his powers, keeps him alive and keeps him up loony creek with no paddle.
He has nearly unlimited radioactive power. But that doesn't mean it's particularly fast. He can make things blow up as well as any other villain with radiation powers. He *could* poison the whole Freedom Phalanx with it...if they, y'know, stood still and twiddled their thumbs while he did so for about...a month or so?
He just doesn't run out of power, though. And he's so insane he came out the other side and has plans so complicated that people go a little nutty trying to keep up with them.
If I ever got a character that ended up hitting CP levels, and people said so, I'd either be hitting them with a large nerfbat or deleting them. I know I find super godly powerful characters annoying (Hello, Pocket D) and I hate to think of myself taking their place. -

/Signed to that...and most of them tbh. Argh! Overload! -
Quote:Thats not really the point. What are you meant to do if you spot the 'Flier Patrol beginging' message, think "Hey, thats a cool idea, might as well get the badge on this guy. Hey, guys, who's up for bashing the flier?"If you want the flier, you should group up in Grandville, not some other zone and only gather up once you see the message.
My villain badger got the badge for the flier on a duo, and my badger is a superspeeding Mastermind (really bad combo trying to reach a flying opponent in Grandville).
Then you actually get there and it's already left the zone?
If you're seriously suggesting camping around in GV waiting for it...well, I don't know what to say, really. What IanTheM1 said, probably. -
/e Facepalm?

Interesting posts from both Shadowe, FFM and Birdy.
Hmm. I think my most powerful characters are probably Alpha and Umbral Nightwalker.
Alpha possibly could destroy the world...given enough time to build four more orbital rail-cannons and the huge ammount of power needed to punch five impervium lance projectiles into the core. And he wouldn't anyway, because then he'd be stuck, bored out of his cerebral core for frag knows how long.
Nightwalker, well...mums the word, for now

New shinies is nice. -
Quote:Yup. This is where patience is key. Warshades are late bloomers, but trust me, they are worth it. Before I levelled mine up, I had tried and given up on Khelds many times.I think that was my problem with the Warshade. There was just so many powers I had never seen before, and I ended up with no clear role in combat. Just me running around like a crazy person shooting purple.
Triform or Human form are both valid. I picked Triform for increased utility.
A few key things for a Warshade;
-Hasten. Speed is good. Also, Super speed allows you to 1) Travel faster, 2) achive true stealth
-Sunless Mire. The Damage Lord. Its like build up, only it increases in magnitude and damages a mob. Whats not to like?
-Stygian Circle. Forget stamina, this is where its at. Kill off two enemies, have it three slotted with 2 end mod and an end red and you are home laughing, back to full bars. It recharges real fast too.
-Unchain Essence, aka the Corpse Bomb. This thing is great. Pick off the weakest member of the enemy mob, and then turn them into a mini PBAoE of explodiness. That, and it stuns.
-Dark Extraction. This is where the gravy train begins. You can have two of these 'Fluffies' stack with Hasten on, and my oh my are they destructive. If you took Nova form as well, these two make you a one bada$$ gunship in a sea full of little fish.
-Eclipse. The pinacle. This turns you into a walking doom machine and, the best bit is, it doesnt crash. Stack this on a mob and, with some IO work, it can be perma. Then you're laughing.
Warshade are...really unique. I think they are the one AT I would actually class as such. They are a progression from Stalker (Sneak up, Sunless Mire) to Controller (Stuns, Gravity Well and Corpse Bomb) through to the final blaster/tanker stage where everything dies (Dark Extraction, Eclipse, blastblastblast). And then feeding off the bodies of the fallen? Doesn't get much better than that

Quote:Except that doesn't work. At, say, level 35-45, 45+, there aren't 'easier' critters. You're into Rikti, Carny, Malta and Nemesis territory, none of which can really be classed as easy (not in general, anyway). Having origin specific enhancements is all fine and dandy; but things that are meant to drop as rewards that you can't even use? I don't buy that.I imagine that the Devs would rather have you adapt to fighting a type of critter that drops a certain type of enhancement than have you pick a critter that you have little to no risk in fighting and get whatever enhancements you need from it.
Granted the difference is negligible now, but it may not have been intended to be when the system was designed.
