    Have you been on some of the servers not Freedom/Virtue recently, they are ghost towns.

    I'm sorry Westley, but I call BS, I don't remember mooks ever self healing. Do you?

    "Frankly, I'm surprised it wasn't lowered long ago - like when Dreck got his timer added. Freaks have always been casual farm-bait."



    And there are some vocal players on the forums who would advocate a near zero xp gain, which is why you have the rest of the player base always pushing back against any reductions.
  4. qr, Sorry didn't have time to read through, just wanted to add that on test I have Lightning Field and Power Sink both six slotted with Eff Adaptors, I found on my ss/ea Brute that it added a great deal of damg mitigation, it becomes like a melee sapper. It's very handy for a weaker set.

With the Numina Unique, Regenerative Tissue unique, two Heal Numinas, one End/Heal Numina, and a generic Level 50 Heal IO, where should I put the enhancements to get max regen?

    I'm thinking the Numina Heal, Numina End/Heal, and Generic Heal in Health, and the two uniques and another Numina Heal in PP.

    I have something similar to that slotted on test, in Health numina reg numina heal numina heal/end [reg 12% heal 1.88%], miracle rec miracle heal [rec 2.5%] regen tissue regen
    In pp numina heal numina heal/end, eff adaptor end mod eff adaptor end mod/rech eff adaptor end mod/accu eff adaptor end mod/end [health 1.13% rec 1.5% regen 10%].

    The combination of that and the new heal in EA actually makes the primary a little durable. ;]
  6. I nominate Ugly Rumor as possibly the best first post on an alt account.

    I just noticed this comment I got after someone offered reputation:

    "Keep pushing the dynamic respec idea"


    So what does anyone think the odds are of this getting in to GR, or soon after, bets?

    Exactly, Granite is an npc costume with specif geometry/colors/textures that are currently set in, well, granite. So unlike changing the color of a powers aura for example, this would require a large amount of changes to the code and even the way the power system works.

    Right now I don't think there's anyway for them to open that up to player customization, but I would guess it will be possible at some point, probably after GR, given the road they've already started down with i16.
    So I guess hang in there.

    CO's agro cap is like 3. It might 5, but from my experience pulling more then 3 for any distance is impossible.
    Emmert loathes herding, after all, so he's fixed that from the beginning with CO.


    But I digress, back to arguing by all means.

    It does yep. Should add for now, there are a lot of settings that haven't been touched yet (c/beta-GR keeping them busy), like infinite edit time.

    Under that name really. I suppose there are folks who've gotten in past c/b's who didn't post much. A lot of the c/b regulars are ardent posters however, and that likely is a contributing factor.



    Justify why you should be in Closed Beta

    I break the hell out of things.

    • It offers a range of challenges for those of us seeking it.
    • Will make it where the only people that are getting pl'd pretty much are the people that already have multiple toons to pl themselves and are forced to actually play the game to pl.
    • Hopefully that will help the purple market as well. Perhaps those farming for the sake of just farming will go back to regular PI maps now that they can do so there just as easy.

    Oh I was implying all of those things, in essence it's not a deathknell to high xp at all, in some regards pl'ing will be easier for those inclined, and the rest of us don't have to be bothered by spam/mid tells.

    The childlike glee of entering a mission solo and seeing packed (PACKED) 54's........ amazing.

    Click one of two buttons. Either choose clear (start anew) or dynamic (change what you like).

    If it's been suggested in many forms, any of which to resemble new slash commands, I'm against it and think this is better.

    I'd pay for that in it's own booster. What are the chances pohysb has some free time between now and GRc/b..
