Yes there was a all server upgrade and then Freedom got its own special brand of upgrading because of one of the DXP meltdown. As I recall, Freedom got its own special booster because of the population size.

It takes more to make Freedom go yellow than it did previously. You more than likely won't see Freedom hit yellow until the next DXP weekend or GR release. I believe this was around the time of the Great Freedom Grayout

Repeat Offenders' heroic SGs were born in Aug 2005 well after COH's launch but 4 of our VGs have been around since COV head start (Oct 2005):

Repeat Offenders VG (all Corrruptors ) -- Founder(s) still around
Malicious Multiplicity (all Mastermind) -- Founder still around (Me )
World Domination Inc. (all Dominators) -- Founder still around
Fast and the Furious (Kin Corrs and Brutes) -- Original founder left the game, SG still alive and kicking.

So for RO our evil sides have been causing chaos in Rogue Isles since the beginning.

Thanks for the invite, but I probably won't have time to run with a static team. Good luck to your team. Running as the PPD is fun.

I think we certainly play kins differently..I have time do use all those powers and ID as well as shoot things in the face with my AR and DP. But I do play a lot of kins I think my grand total is 13 currently.

ID is a great power, it can be used reactively when someone is mezzed or KB'd or proactively. I tend to dish it out with the SB as I'm used to giving them out as pairs. I don't reapply it the instant it wears off though, I tend to reapply it when SB wears off.

Practice is all it takes, learning how to combat buff is the key. Shoot Shoot, Buff Buff... of course with DP/Kin I like to call it Bang Bang, Zoom Zoom.

Yes and they didn't work as well to bring out the two tone colors of the boots on the exoskeleton. Enforcer was a bit too robotic, and doesn't have the nice reflective surface so I chose to use the Cyborg boots instead. I did use many Enforcer pieces when making an alternate Vanguard costume, they worked well for that group. It's tough and I flipped through several choices. But naturally costumes are subjective to taste so at least on these, my RO mates are able to download the costume file and adjust to their liking.

I saw your PPD SG thread (Good luck! ). I also lead a PPD themed SG, based on the Psi Division, which is probably the very first time I had to create costumes for anyone other than myself. This was a bit before the AE though and I had to look images on paragonwiki. Thank goodness for the AE, I can view all the NPCs very closely. Of course making the PPD Psi Division costumes was fairly simple in comparison to the Armored Corps.

Thanks for the kind words...you can call me Alty

Wyvern would be 3rd toughest challenge due to the custom armor pieces and quivers. I created 3 different costume variations, but for the sake of space here's only one with an image of the NPC group.

Talon Agents (Orange), Fang Agents (Gray), Sting Agents (Red/Red), Raptor Agents (Red/Black)

Sure why not... I think my other favorite is the PPD: Powered Armor Cops, before I did the Legacy Chain this group was the most challenging. Very difficult to go exoskeleton without leaking into cyborg/robot territory.

I have a much greater appreciation for the time and energy it goes into making these NPC groups that's for sure. There's a bunch of awesome details that I know, I missed when beating them up. My RO mates really like this group a lot. Although on this batch I noticed too late that I had the blues flipped on the armor padded bottoms. Lighter blue background, darker blue pads.

Because perhaps those goodies (costumes etc) are connected to GR and they don't want to release those extra powers until GR is released as a finished product, after it goes through beta testing.

I'm an Offensive focused Defender aka an Offender and a repeated one at that (cue shameless plug). Which means I mash blasting buttons, force multiplier buttons and sometimes a healing button or two. I use the tools I have to the best of my gaming abilities. That's really all that anyone playing this game can do.

You're excited about what your Defender can do and that Great (welcome to the party) But be careful you don't insult while trying to educate, (although there is a 'preaching to the choir' aspect when you post in this particular section) to be at the party you have to welcome all the guests. Not everyone is trying to play a tanker on every AT

Enjoy the game!

Unfortunately, only a small number of colors on the Standard Costume chart are the same as the ones on the Power Customization charts. Also, the powers customization chart has a few extra color rows on it that aren't on Standard Palette. Overall though Dark and Bright Palettes follow the same order of colors as the Standard chart.

I'll check out what you posted on Paragon Wiki as well.

Two things: You can only use Noxious Gas on pets. It does not take ANY set IOs, so you cannot proc it out.

...that is all
