Four of the last five recipe sales on the market were for 1.5 billion, and the fifth was for 1.9 billion. One of the last five crafted enhancements went for less than 2 billion.
1.5 Billion on 1/26
2.0 Billion on 1/25
1.96 Billion on 1/25
2.0 Billion on 1/25
2.0 Billion on 1/25
With 14 for sale and 1,597 bids... you can still easily get 2 Billion.
Do it now before Converters go Live. -
Quote:They usually sell for that much on the Market rather quickly. Most player to player sales are done to bypass the 2 Billion inf limit in the Market, which is no longer the trend since the price of these is starting to fall given the building up of Merits (from Super Packs) and Empyreans (from non-stop iTrialing).Originally Posted by Justaris
Level 50 Gladiator's Armor +3% Defense PvP IO is still available for sale.
Send tell to @Justaris or send PM if interested in purchase.
Price reduced to 1.9 billion, could use the influence for an upcoming project. -
Quote:Yes. The final double AV in DiB may be a bit challenging, but I'm sure the playerbase will work out a fast and efficient strategy.Originally Posted by Ridia
So is this basically going to be a higher level DFB? That's what it sounds like which IMO is very cool because things like DFB and/or DIB seem to really be what players are into these days. I mean go hang around Ms. Liberty when there is a crowd and that's all players are teaming up for. It will be cool to do somethng similar but on a higher overall level with more powers available. That is if that is what DIB is?
It's basically there for folks who've played through the story arcs already and want a fast track to higher level toons with other powersets or ATs. It really shouldn't be used for newbies to bypass content and the learning curve... that puts them at several disadvantages later in the game ("what's a Positron Task Force" and "what's a recipe?"). -

Reichsy also has: Unbreakable and Unstoppable to contend with. When they're on, you may think that his Untouchable status is back and then be tempted to use the Grounding Ray again... but it has no effect. It's coincidental that god-mode powers wear off when you use GR again. -
Quote:That's observer bias. The full set of all ATOs appear in both rarity tables.Originally Posted by Roderick
Generally, the Very Rare cards have the "good" enhancements (Quads and procs), and the Rare cards have the weaker ones (Doubles and Triples). There may be some exceptions, but when I've been paying attention while opening packs, that's the trend I've noticed.

I ask because I used to always buy these, like any other rare 1-25 salvage, for 12,345. A while back I was marketeering fiercely, and they were out of that range, so I bid 123,456 on a bunch. Then I got distracted by important things like changes to riftstalker tanking mechanics, and when I came back...
I hadn't bought any, and they were running 1-2M.
Huh? -
Why are people personally selling these things for 2 Billion, when you can put them on the market and get 2 Billion, or, if you put out a bid for 2 Billion, you wind up getting that bid filled?
I can see if they want to sell something for *more* than 2 Billion, then they are forced to go outside the Market; but since the Market deals with these 2 Billion sales rather well... why not just use the Market? -
ATOs are of the Rare (Orange) level of power, even the ones that come from a Very Rare card in a Super Pack, since, as has been discussed above, both the Rare and the Very Rare cards pull from the same ATO 'pool'. (Although, a few of the ATO Global Set Bonuses are either greater or less than normal Rare level of power.)
ATOs can be made into a Very Rare (Purple) level of power with a Catalyst.
See this spreadsheet of Enhancement types. -

Quote:Welcome, and let me be the first to challenge your policies (it *is* the Internet, after allOriginally Posted by Hit Streak
We've discussed quite a few things in the short time since I've come on board. First, Facebook will continue to be key as we have our largest audience there with over 50,000 people. But we want to explore ideas that will strengthen our communities on Twitter and Google+. We think Twitter is a great place to be a bit more casual with our fans while Google+ gives us a place to hang out (literally) with you.
We'll continue to syndicate important news items on all three networks, but we feel each network brings different, compelling opportunities to interact with you all.
)...
How many of those Facebook 'friends' are 'friends' because there was a promotional emote giveaway (/facepalm) that required a Facebook account and friending CoH versus people who like and use Facebook and friended CoH on their own accord?
Put a GMOTD pop up in the game announcing that folks can get an emote giveaway by signing up for the forums (and give us /doublefacepalm) and I guarantee you the forums will suddenly have a larger audience than Facebook.
And speaking of Twitter, please don't do anything to increase the number of Twitter posts per day. I'm already considering stopping the direct-to-smartphone alerts because the Twitter posts are starting to become too numerous and spammy... there were already 10 posts in the past 24 hours. We really didn't need each place in the costume contest to have its own Twitter posting. That's akin to those oft-made-fun-of folks who constantly Tweet every little thing they're doing all day long. Or maybe create a second Twitter account for spammy stuff like that leaving the main channel open for important alerts.
Anyway, welcome, again! -
Quote:Common IOs don't have bonuses attached to them. Global Bonuses are that which are subject to the -3 rule. Global Bonuses don't come from Common IOs, but from IO *Sets* and Special IOs from Sets that have an individual Global Bonus attached to it (e.g., LotG:+Recharge).Originally Posted by Scarlet Shocker
Couple of questions, the first from Captain Bleedin' Obvious: Are common IOs not subject to the -3? Therefore slotting lvl 50 IOs (damage, recharge etc) I don't lose the bonus if exemplaring down?
Damage, Recharge, EndRedux, Range, etc... are not bonuses, but the *Aspects* of the Enhancement. Aspects always work, and when Exemplared, scale down... they don't shut off.
SOs don't take Enhancement Boosters. SOs can only be made more powerful by combining them for the +, and ++, increases in the power of the Aspects.Quote:also Enhancement boosters - they seem to work on SOs up until 53, but not on 53s or higher... but can they take IOs to a higher level and what is their effect on Procs? -
I'm going to guess that the MM ATOs will be cheap and not because MMs aren't popular... they are. But because the MM ATOs are awful.
The Scrapper ones should wind up to be very expensive, not so much because Scrappers are popular... they are. But because the Scrapper ATOs are fantastic. -
Quote:You character's appearance is saved server side. You can only alter the server's database of what your toon is wearing through the tailor interface. The server then tells you and everyone else what your toon looks like (i.e., what it is wearing), and everyone's client on their computer pulls up the correct textures stored locally to create your character's look.Originally Posted by GATE-keeper
Are costume files stored locally anyway? In other words, if I changed costume files, wouldn't the changes only show up on my screen, not yours?
(I seem to remember hearing that someone changed the costume files so that every toon appeared nude on that one person's screen, whereas everyone appeared normal on their own screen. Urban legend?)
You can save costume sets locally in a .costume file. These files are just an aid for you to put together 'looks' for your toons. Rather than selecting piece by piece in the tailor interface, you can call up a saved look from a .costume file all at once. The tailor interface, communicating with the server, may disallow certain pieces. The .costume file doesn't get around what the server says you're entitled to wear.
Since the textures for the costumes are stored locally, there are ways to alter them. E.g., you can take, e.g., the Trident Chest Logo and alter it so it's a Mickey Mouse Chest Logo. So that when the server says, "Put the trident logo on the chest," you see the Mickey Mouse logo instead. However, that's all done locally. The server is telling everyone else you're wearing the Trident Logo and so, that's what they all see. -
They'll probably pick an appropriately themed day to release "Death Incarnate", like Halloween. So, I'm going with Oct 31.

Quote:I understand that shiny Orange and matte Orange look different.Originally Posted by Dink
This is because on some costume pieces we use "Shaders" to make it look reflective so it is not going to be the same exact color. If we don't use a shader you will not get that metal look, it would just be flat.
A lot of our costumes as of late have a lot of metal/reflective surfaces going on which is why that is happening.
Zyphoid: No bow and shield, there just was not enough time allocated for them.
But on the Celestial armor, I can make the really black parts lighter to match the grey of the metal plates so that they look just about exactly alike. Are you saying that those lighter grey metal parts can't get any darker because of metallic reflective shading? Or was that an artist's decision to make the armor two-tone and impossible to get all-black? -
I have bought FIVE CEs for my 2 accounts and as gifts to friends and I'm all for releasing Slide through the market.
So, answer this, Paragon Studios: if every player that was playing CoH at the time that the CE came out wanted to buy a copy, would you have denied them because you wanted to create a limited exclusivity between haves and have-nots? Or would you have happily printed out enough copies for everyone who wanted to give you an extra $50 for it? If the latter, then it was never really a "Collector's Edition" but a "Deluxe Edition" and continuing the limited exclusivity makes no sense. Let others buy into the Deluxe Version of powers.
But even if it was meant to be limited, wouldn't it still be limited because there aren't any more boxes being made and no more Heroclix figurines being made?
And wouldn't it still be limited by those willing to purchase Slide v. those who won't or can't?
And if this is meant to be a Collector's Edition... does this mean it's OK now for me to sell off my second account on EBay? After all, the usual meaning of "Collector's Edition" is that I own it... not you, despite your EULA. You violated your EULA which normally gives you ownership of everything by labeling something you sold me as "Collector's." If you still own it... I didn't collect it. And normally, as a collector, *I* own it. And I can sell it to other people for profit, because a "Collector's Item" goes up in value over time. Those few boxes that are still out there are going for $100... the collector's value has increased. So, now, I want to sell my Collector's Edition to someone else for $100... but how can I sell Slide once it's been attached to my account. Obviously, this is tacit permission from you, maintaining that this is a Collector's Edition, that I can now sell off my account on EBay without any repercussions.
Of course, the easy out is to create a different version of Slide... one without the aura and put that on the market and all things are reconciled. In fact, I'd happily buy a version of Slide without that aura which is almost as blindingly garish as SuperSpeed's. I love Slide in that it reduces the motion sickness inducing jiggling of runners. But I hate the aura. Give us Inherent Power Slide without the aura, please. -

Having now done the redside version, I gagged on the bit at the end about how "the press isn't sure what to make of you" and how you might be able to turn this to your advantage by being the one to defeat Wade and use the ensuing public acclaim to further your schemes.
As a villain, I killed Miss Liberty in cold blood. I'm pretty sure the press knows exactly what to make of me. And seriously, when have Dr. Doom or the Joker or even Lord Recluse given a crap whether or not the public loves them? -

I disagree, but, that's the way it is. -
Apparently there is a Dev or Producer blocking Slide from going to Market.
As stupid and inexplicable as it is, that's the way it is.
