We can probably expect the Autumnal Path Aura, Pilgrim Hat, and German Shepard non-combat pet tomorrow. See here: German Shepard / Autumnal Path / Pilgrim Hat -- Video.
As far as pre-tinting, see here: The Problems with pre-tinting costume pieces
The chainmail pieces are a brand new leak. So, expect.... soon. -
Quote:Depends on the level of the LotG+R. If it's a level 27 LotG+R and you're 25, then it will still work even though Combat Jumping is greyed out. If it's a Level 30 LotG+R and you're 25, then it won't work.Hm. I must have been mistaken, then. I thought that if you were exemplared to a level below having access to a power, that its bonuses stopped working.
For instance, if I took Combat Jumping at level 49, threw a LotG +recharge into it, then ran a Sister Psyche, I'd lose that bonus.
See here and then here.
Global Special IOs work differently than Proc Special IOs. -
Also, if you get a toon to 50 and run the Incarnate content, you can use Incarnate rewards to buy level 1 access to capes and auras for alts of your choosing.

COH CS has been known to restore player-deleted toons or toons with corrupted database from a year ago.

It's an Easter Egg reference to David Nakayama. He was born on April 81st, 1951 at 6:23:42.

Have you tried through the account page on the main web site (and not through the in-game Store)?

Quote:You don't need to wait for the message, bombs see through invisibility. If you got within range, it's going off.The sweeper just runs up to each bomb, makes sure they see the message showing it triggered, and then they run off to the next one. The rest of the league follows at whatever pace Desdemona moves at.
A SuperSpeeder has enough stealth and can run it fast enough to trigger all the bombs without dying, even if they're squishie.
And to the OP: Keyes and the UG were indeed long for giving out just one Empyerean. Now that they give two, they're actually shorter in Empyreans/Time.
I would recommend folk do Lambda/BAF until they unlock the +3 levels, then switch to UG and Keyes. -

Quote:Tweaked. I don't think ANNOYINGBUG is going to fit on a macro icon.Update: For those experiencing the UI (User Interface) Issues, one possible work around is as follows:
- Configure your UI the way you want it.
- Type: /wdwsave
- And whenever it resets, you can restore your preferences by typing: /wdwload
You may have to do this repeatedly, so you may wish to create a macro, as follows:
/macro <NAME> wdwload
Or, create a bind such as:
for example
/macro UIfix wdwload
/bind CTRL+U wdwload
So that hitting CTRL+U will execute the command.

I've been getting the outdated graphics warning for a about two months now...
Important: Your computer appears to be using older drivers for your video and 'ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4670' with driver dated 07-06-2010.
Driver version is 8.753-100706m-102501C-ATI and is working just fine on my Asus laptop. So... I'm not touching it. -

For the non-USians: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veterans_day
And for the USians: Remember, *Memorial Day* is for those who died in service. *Veterans Day* is (mostly) for those living who served. [It annoys me when Americans don't get that.] -
More recently, we've been getting costume pieces that are pre-tinted, or pre-shaded in such a way that it has an effect on the hue and depth of tone of selected coloration. This prevents the mix-and-match of costume pieces which was the strength of the CoH costume creator.
Not only is pre-tinting making matching pieces difficult, it is now creating some very unappealing results. Take a look at what happens when Yellow is selected for the new Female Gunslinger Gloves in the first frame below:
It's now a hideous yellow green. Also note, that the secondary color has no effect (red was chosen). Also note that the actual design of the glove for a female gunslinger is a WTH moment. What is that? It's not a gunslinger glove. It's not a modified opera glove that saloon girls would wear. What the heck is that? It's pretty messed up in several ways.
But look at the shades of Yellow that show in the various gloves and sleeves in the costume creator. Even the newer hi-rez pieces can't keep a consistent shade of Yellow. And yes, the same Yellow swatch was chosen for all those pieces.
That pre-tinting limits choices can be seen in the Celestial Armor set below...
Note in the first panel, all the armor pieces match. They look like they are one suit of armor. Nice.
Note in the second panel that some pieces are highlighted while others are darkened for a two-tone effect. Nice.
Note in the third panel that all the pieces are darkened for an all-black suit of armor. Oh wait. There is no third panel because you can't darken all the pieces to black. The second panel has the darkest black chosen for all the pieces and yet some aren't near black at all. That's pre-tinting in action. Pre-tinted to never be black but only shades of silver. And even the pieces that can go black don't all have the same shade of black. The Chest Detail only comes close to black and doesn't match any of the other pieces, which is really bad design in action.
Listen, I understand the artists have a vision for a set for which pre-tinting gives an artsy effect that looks really good by itself. It really does look really good... by itself. But that same artsy effect is keeping pieces from one set work well with other sets. And that's a really really bad thing. Very few player costumes are all from the same set. We mix-and-match. Besides you wouldn't want us to have costumes made from one set because then all the players would look alike.
If you're going to continue to give us pre-tinted pieces, then at least also provide a second skin to these pieces that isn't pre-tinted so we can properly repurpose them for the costumes that we actually make in game and not for a theoretical set which is hardly ever made.
Which leads me to a point I've made over the years, and to my fellow players, I beg you to get on board and ask for this rather than fight over individual pieces. It is this principle....
For all costume pieces, provide a pre-determined set of textured skins (e.g., spandex/tight, cloth, leather, rubber, rough metal, high shine metal) so that mixing and matching can be done without any fuss.
I know that Noble Savage has dismissed this as too much rework. Well, guess what? The direction you're going is the opposite direction and it's pissing off the player base. If you used that principle two years ago and made that a consistent art direction, you wouldn't have the problems we have now. -
Well, you must have done something to anger your base, or else it wouldn't be attacking you. What did you do?
-
Well, previous to this last piece of data, I was calculating CoH's Doom would come about in about 6 years based on trends. But, now, based on the trends of the last two quarters, I can confidently predict that CoH will last infinitely and make as much money.

With the Stealth from SuperSpeed, Shadow Fall, and the Stealth Proc, plus that Temp Power that gives you Stealth and you turn black and can't move.. forgot it's name... will get me through the back door.
But, that tactic's pretty useless since that stupid temp power is on a long recharge. -
Quote:Actually, there were two reasons given:Also, anyone who did it Redside. Do we know WHY they wanted Alexis dead? Was there any reason given?
1. Vial of blood taken by Wade. Miss Liberty having been a long-lived super and daughter of Statesman is obviously an Incarnate, or, at least, an Incarnate-potential. Blood of the Incarnate... where have I heard that before? Although, it's surprising Wade took blood, since he usually deals with samples of hair.
2. Setting up Manticore to allow Miss Liberty to die will isolate Statesman and fracture the Freedom Phalanx.
At least we know this isn't an Arachnos plot since Miss Liberty is the leader of Freedom Corps of which Longbow is military arm (headed by Ms. Liberty). That alone would have been enough for Arachnos to want here gone. But Freedom Corps wasn't mentioned.
As to who offed her: Wade gives you the chance to do it. If you decline, he does it. -
I think they're making fun of 21JS: "What are you, 40?"

Quote:It wouldn't work at all except as fly-by chomping.Dogs tend to fight human-sized critters by biting a limb and hanging on. The CoH engine doesn't support that very well.
Or, it would work as horribly as the Watcher's bite attack where they chomp their teeth somewhat nearish to you and that's supposed to be a bite.
Combat models have an invisible box of exclusion that keep other critters from actually touching them (except for odd cases where the collision protector isn't working). That's why we can't have 'throw opponent' attacks.
If you ever want to see that box, use Reveal next to the incarnate vendors in Ouroboros.
