    Generic Names...

    In addition, consider that there's very little reward for a GM to change his or her mind about such an issue. So consider how much effort you're willing to spend on a cause that may be doomed from the gitgo.

    IMVHO, If you feel the need, make a single petition and accept w/e comes of it.
  2. I have had PPD come into my locked jail cell through the door and start whupping on me.

    Solid walls and doors aren't always so it seems.

    kind of like how one acquires hamios?
  4. I noticed the change on my 1st mish after fixing my power colors.

    Will download parser and deliver data.
  5. in my secondary build for doing low lvl SFs, I slot brawl with Acc/End/Rechg IOs and dmg procs because it's an extra attack that I could squeeze in under lvl 25.
    Of course that all will have to change when I get a round tuit.
    haven't decided exactly how just yet-- will have 5 extra powers to slot AND won't have to use any end red in brawl

    hmmm

    Serious Question

    I feel the same way as the OP sometimes. I play with folks who steamroll through SFs on relentless and make near record times.
    The game hasn't been adjusted for the benefits of IO's, I guess.

    I am building a serious challenge AE.
    I will post the number here when I finish.
  7. Not even the mob hit?

    Ime, when one mob is hit other mobs "look around" for an aggressor. If the aggressor isn't visible they often just stay there in "look around" mode.
    This effect can be reproduced with melee as well as non melee attacks by combining a jump and/or a cliff or wall into the execution.
    Even AS can do this to a degree.

    Go with SR or EA. I'd always take SR, and depending on your build you may not even need Aid Self.
    I solo AVs with WP w/o regard to the surrounding mobs.
  10. some hamios are not assigning their bonuses correctly. And SS was listed as coming before hasten

    easy to fix if you edit
  11. When you talk about how your toon's powers would work "in real life"

    Iirc, it only has a chance to stun.
    I find its a very useful power. I stuck a Absolute amazement chance for to hit debuff in it to go with the Armageddon set.
    I put it on auto and as I work the bosses, the minions steadily decline at a rate that works nicely with RttC. Usually there are just a few minions with a few hp left standing when the bosses are downed.
  13. Your data link gives an error and the colors of your post give me a headache so I really can't comment on your build though I would like to.

    I have a WP brute that is specifically a boss killer. I can take most AVs I run across and can tank Deathsurge and Scrapyard.

    If you will post your data chunk perhaps I can take a better look at your build.
  14. Is it a known bug? Or should I report it?
  15. Is this a known bug?

    The forest maps I have tried all have the escorts goal as many yards underground by the mission entrance exit. consequently, the escortee never makes it to where he needs to go, mission never completes.

    Is there a work around?
    Or what?

    Issue 13 Update

    The delay is because devs started getting paid by the hour.

    I think the enforcement of "Not Safe For Work" (ie: nudity) artwork in the art forums is too lax.

    There have been, and are threads where the purpose is to figure out how to sneakily link to NSFW images somehow under the Mod's radar - often by merely stating "It'll get modded if I put a link - but if you go to the DeviantArt link in my sig and then check my Blog - you might find something naughty"

    Its widely discussed there that its the accepted method to skirt the rules and still have character art porn.

    The forums are supposed to be all ages for an all ages game - that sort of thing really doesn't belong here, on these boards.

    Yet it still gets by the Mods.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Some places I frequent they have a two link rule for nsfw content. Not only does the forum content have to have a nsfw warning, you also have to click 2 links to get to the nsfw content. This assures that people don't 'accidentally' come across nsfw content.
  18. I'm all for it. I participate in more than one intrawebs forum. The other forums I frequent all have volunteer mods. The big difference I noticed previously was that the boards with the volunteer mods were run more strictly and with more noticeable mod activity. With the new mod crew and the revision on the rules maybe this won't be the case anymore.

    ** anecdote alert**
    I've heard more than one person say in game that they don't participate in the forum because of the hostility of the 'forumites.' Usually there's an accompanying comment or two about how the forumites take things waaay to seriously and are prone to internet aggression.
    **end anecdote alert**

    Given the immense amount of info relevant to the game and the minuscule amount provided by the game, the forums are an essential part of CoX - lots of info and documentation simply cannot be found otherwise.

    I'm all for it. Do what you can to make this place more civil. It may help ease the n00b in-game learning curve if people in-game are recommending the forums instead of telling folks to avoid them.

    Just so you know, the stealth from the Empowerment Buff Station in bases *doesn't* suppress when you click on objects. Just sayin'.

    I never would have tried that power w/o having read this. Very happy w/ what I have and never saw the point, but now ...

    Once you put that much tactics into a game are you really having fun any more?

    [/ QUOTE ] Ummm... That kind of IS the fun - learning how to do it well. There's only so much joy from 'splosions and stuff. The rest, for me, comes from stratergerizing and things like that.

    imho

  21. anyone know where the current patch notes reside?

    My search didnt find it
  22. Why did you have fillers?
    What's the benefit?
  23. Batzul and Infernal have dain bramage from all the beating I've given 'em. So it's no wonder that they cant walk and chew gum at the same time.

    Still, I agree - very annoying
