PVPEC 3v3 Weekly Fight Nights

It might not be exactly the ladder you hoped for, but it is definitely a step in the right direction and a good compromise given the current level of interest in PvP on Champion. I imagine the best way to get PVPEC to turn it into a more formal ladder would be to support the events that are currently being hosted to show a consistent level of interest.

Or, like 4shes suggested, try starting your own event.

That's Amy G. Dala, Kineticist at Law.

Thanks for hosting this event! It was a lot of fun.

Aye, very smooth raid! Great job, Champion.

Tastes like Corruptor.

Same here. Most of the time, it's possible to find a moment in combat where the team is naturally grouped and fire off your RAs at that time. When I'm on a team that is steamrolling already, I find 'gathering' really kills the momentum.

This.

I pretty much posted the same thing when I first heard about it. The subject matter has the potential to be interesting. However, in order to come to any sort of conclusion, in order to make his observations meaningful, he should have set up an experiment. Otherwise, it's just a story about a professor who played CoH and got a rise out of other players. Just because he happens to be a professor does not automatically make his leisure activity research.

Studies that state such mundane and general conclusions irritate me. It tells me that whoever conducted the research likely did not frame their research question properly. It would be more interesting to know which demographic of people send you death threats, which simply ignore you, how often these reactions occur, what stimulates what type of reaction, etc. Not just "When I behave like an [censored], people get mad." This further indicates to me that his 'research' was an afterthought.

I'm tellin' ya, the best Mids tutorial is to keep making builds. There's nothing to fear. It's not like an echoing voice comes from your computer, telling you you'll never get to perma Hasten using Tempered Readiness for recharge bonuses, or gives you the error message "Your build sucks." Make one, and if you don't like it, delete it. No one has to know.

While I'm sure Silas could write an excellent guide, the only way to really figure out how Silas be doin' it is to use the program.

As it turns out, as long as you set 'No Travel Powers', you will not be able to fly while in Nova. You can still use the form, but you're only able to slide along the ground and jump.

Regardless, you bring up a good point regarding ATs that could have inherent advantages over other ATs. I don't want to disqualify any ATs based on theoretical advantages they might have. Instead of making a list of things that could be unfair, just bring what you think will be fun. Likely, it'll all even out given the level range we're playing in and the map selections (i.e. smaller maps).
