Quote:Answer here.Not to totally derail the conversation, but am I to understand that Miss Liberty, i.e. Alexis Cole, has been killed?

Even Manticore has the good sense to keep his illegal mercenaries secret because he knows it's illegal.
Ms. Liberty believes might makes right, which betrays the code of the knights that once gathered around the bearer of the sword she wears. She is the ultimate vigilante. And her family wasn't happy with her establishment of Longbow.
She let her Praetorian double go because she believes so much in her own rightness, she is incapable of believing an evil doppelganger of herself could really be bad. I'm sure the Destroyers in Nova Praetoria thank her for her faith in Praetor Duncan. -
So when you, Paragon Studios, go to sell a brand new Travel Power, you put another one that has identical stats up for sale.
To me, that seems like marketing suicide. Yeah, I know you don't want to be greedy or be accused of being greedy, but, please, moves like this hurt my brain. A lot.
Just be aware that if at some meeting in the future someone pipes up, "The players didn't seem to like the Flying Carpet," just remember to say, "Well, that's because we were undercut by the competition. And the competition is us." -
Carpet is the only new thing.
Rocket Board and Mission TP Power are the only new sale items (both 600 -> 450)
All previous discounted items have been removed.
Time-limited items (Winter and New Year Packs) remain until 1/31. -
Quote:fixt accounting for breathless paranoiaSo, what you're saying is that we have no proof at all that the pets always spawned at -1? If this actually was a stealth nerf, or a bug, pointing to a piece of text that was written AFTER the original version could no longer be verified, doesn't say very much, now, does it?

Which means you have to presume he died *after* he gave you a Task Force.

Everyone was unceremoniously dumped in front of a rest room door in Pocket D.

K, then. If you're hoping to confuse several bosses in a spawn as self protection, you're going to limit yourself certain ATs and power sets and thus probably not be able to do everything else you want to do.
Illusion, by itself, won't stack Confuse quickly enough to save you from three bosses and allow you to do anything else but spam Deceive. -
Problem with Controllers are the iTrials where AoE is not welcome and with so many AoE attacks and uncontrollable pets, it will put you at a disadvantage.
And I don't have a clue why confuse is important. The AVs are immune and the foes can't really damage each other because of the debuffs the rest of the league throws down on them.
Sounds like you want a Tankermind with either Dark, Poison, Pain, Thermal, or Traps. Then take Provoke and whatever Pool or Incarnate powers to round out the character. -
I can't remember the source, but, I thought Ghost Falcon in Peregrine was the Praetorian version of Patrick Duncan who was killed or is MIA. It's doubtful that Hero 1's Praetorian double is Ghost Falcon.

If you had to chose between 10% +Recovery and 10% +Endurance, both would increase Recovery the same amount (by 10%). But, they're not exactly equal because +Endurance gives you simply more Endurance to use up on top of the increased rate of Recovery.
If you could allocate that 10% and split them up between +Endurance and +Recovery, then you get a higher rate of Recovery by splitting it evenly 5%/5% because the two mechanics are multiplicative of each other (you get an additional 5% of 5% on top of the 10% overall rate of Recovery increase, which isn't much until you get into much higher numbers such as what Ultimus is using above... which one isn't likely to see for +Endurance except maybe as a temporary buff).
In general, go for +Endurance, but don't spurn +Recovery when +Endurance isn't available. -
Quote:Reverse the polarity!Hmmm something is backwards here...with this the puck seems to end up higher on the screen the lower I point on the screen.
Edit: I saw where you were going with this so I did some recalculating myself, and got the same solution as you. However, when I tried the solution, the z ended up with higher numbers than expected causing the puck to appear to go higher the lower I touch. Ugg...back to the mind grinder. -
Or make every contact and store have the same interface, namely, all TO, DO, and SO enhancements at all levels sortable by type, level, origin, and plain language name for the enhancement... all with the same prices.

Quote:The people who understood and replied are a self-selecting group. They replied because they knew. There might be those who didn't reply precisely because they didn't know.Amazingly every reply above this one had no problem understanding. You should give people more credit instead of assuming they can't draw basic conclusions.
So basically, your 'proof' that 'everyone understood' wasn't really 'proof' at all.
Last night in Help Channel I had to explain to someone what LotG was. -

As a *Travel Power* for you and your pets, both Group Fly and Team Teleport are broken since they both will have too many 'drop outs' while traveling. However, they do work well together as a Travel Power in the form of group-hover-TP, but, then you have to burn 6 Power slots to make that happen... not really worth it. (I have been lobbying the Devs for a long time now to remove the power prerequisites for both powers so that MMs can take both without too much penalty.)
Either Group Fly or Team Teleport work well as *Battle Powers*. Group Fly keeps pets out of patches. Team Teleport moves the whole group past a spawn or right into one depending on what you intend to do. They both provide tactical maneuvering in battle.
As far as zone travel, I like to use SuperSpeed + Stealth IO for my own protection (with Steam Jump or GvE Jump Pack for vertical movement). I put the pets into Passive Stay. This causes them to keep auto-teleporting to where I'm going without dragging behind lots of aggro. OTOH, the End penalty for resummoning is now pretty trivial. I don't mind dismissing and resummoning as needed. -
Oi vey. What he just did is what the courts would call 'theft'. It's little wonder he suddenly became more willing to give his boss what was due when it became public... he was likely looking at charges being levied against him.

Quote:You might be confusing the date the Holiday and New Years Packs stop being sold (Jan 31) with the end of the Winter Event itself.I've read that the Winter Event is until Jan 31... but there are still 'presents' one can grab, the winter area in Pocket D is still accessible, and etc.
When do these actually go away? I'm guessing tonight at some point (Jan 1), though I don't know what time zone is the 'official' time zone for the game (PST, EST,...)... -
It funny because you need to say it out loud.

K, got one parked there now, and the other will be there when I'm not playing on my main account.
