    Our fastest was 30 minutes.

    Is that the fastest confirmed run time?

    Masterminds are defined by their pets, and going without them is for people who care more about concept than about soulless numbers.

    FTFY.

    p.s.: I always warn potential teams when I'm running petless.
  3. I knew there was a good reason to put this thread on my Favorites list. heh.
  4. You can make good use of the dual build feature and have it both ways.
  5. Parkour. An acrobatic positional defensive set, not as easy to soft-cap as Super Reflexes, but with advantages of extra base mobility and significant resistance to mobility-based status effects such as hold, immobilize, knockback and slow. Destined to make animation artist's ears bleed.

    I would characterize that as disingenuous. That is standard issue flame bait terminology.

    Purple out an opposite faction one of course.

    The next step after that would be to dual box both characters in a co-op zone (if the second character is on another account, of course).
  9. The only correct thing to do is brag about it on the forums.

    Again, from the Press Release;

    For the first time, hero characters can become villains and vice versa, enabling hero archetypes to cross over to the Rogue Isles™ and villain archetypes to experience Paragon City™.

    That still could refer to the Praetorian versions of the Rogue Isles and Paragon City. If they mirrored and rebalanced the entire list of previously available game zones (while also making them all co-op), that would be a huge task, and plenty enough content to merit being a paid expansion and not just an update.
  11. I can think of two ways to get the devs to specifically listen to your grievances: 1. buy the company. 2. Hire the dev team as consultants, like lobbyists and political action committees do with politicians.
  12. My guess is that the situation will be much simpler than many people are speculating it will be: "side switching" merely giving access to Praetorian universe co-op zones. Remember that this is a boxed expansion; people who don't have the expansion just won't be able to access the new content. I don't think we'll have villain AT's running around in original blue-side zones at all.

    Not sure what the big deal is about this; characters will just be playing in Praetorian zones with different story arcs, right? New content is nice, I suppose, though.
  14. The trailer features a Bettie Page look-a-like; NCSoft had damned well better be paying royalties to her estate for that privilege.

    For the longest time, I thought LaserJudas was originally LaserJesus, who was forced to change their name because a GM/moderator deemed it offensive. I remember the first time I saw both of you participating in a conversation in one of the global channels at the same time.

    That could be done with dual-boxing.
  16. What are the prospects for a Strong/Pretty guide these days?
  17. I'd like to have the list of calendar wallpapers extended to cover at least the rest of the months of the current year, as they've currently run out, as far as I can tell.
  18. So people are using arc ratings as a new form of PvP? That's a little sad....
  19. I would rather not have SS nerfed to the level of Scrapper Chow until I manage to get my SS/SR Brute up to lvl 50. I figure I only need about six more months or so. kthxbye....
  20. RWZ could rationalize it as AE providing Vanguard a holo-training service.

    Stop Nerfing PvP

    Among the people that quit over the changes were some of the most obnoxious losers that were driving off potential pvpers.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    Obnoxious winners seem to me more likely to drive off potential pvpers. I'm not sure there is any effective way to nerf trash talking, though.

    If your going to do that might as well make an Corr.

  23. What does the phrase "static team" mean in the context of this thread?

    The real problem I have with the current MA content is not that some of it is harder than standard PVE content or should only be solo'ed by purpled out scrappers - its that there is no real way to tell how hard something is going to be just from the ARC description.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    It sounds like some of the MA designers are actually playtesting their arcs with purpled out scrappers. heh.
  25. It was no where near that, just 322 tickets. I thought it was going to be like 2 or 3 tickets per mission, based on the scarcity of Merit rewards.
