  1. As unpopular as it was ED needed to happen when it did, though I don't believe all those people spouting ED was put in to make room for IO's, they happened to far apart to really have anything to do with each other.

    I remember playing several characters before ED, and it was fun being invincible and being in no real danger, but it wouldn't have stayed fun. Nothing was a challenge at the end game back then. I'm sure all those grey names that happened in my global friends wouldn't have stuck with the game this long if ED had not happened. And I know I wouldn't have played the game for the very long time I have. And with CoV, the villain AT's without ED would have been completely broken.

    My big gripe with the game, was really the game play itself. The stories, the TF's, the people the atmosphere was great. But being rooted every time I used any attack annoyed me the entire time. and in the recent times playing even with the revamped starting zones after being done with the new stories, it was just the same game, and the last few times I had played I had tried to make new alts and could just not power through those early levels anymore.

    I love the game, I was going to give it a break and come back, and now I'm sad I won't really get the chance to.

    Scrappers

    I love my scrappers, and back in the day pulling off and soloing things I had no business444444 soloing. I'm gonna miss all you scrappers, and my own scrappers.

    I still remember one time I was on a team with a few friends one of which was a stone tank, I was on my dark dark scrapper. We had aggroed a few to many groups combined with an ambush in a Crey mission. Everyone had died except me. I still have no idea how I survived long enough for the rest of my friends to get back and us to clear them out, but it's was such an awesome time.

    Edit: Oh sweet my very first FPARN

    Not Goodbye

    Well I've been playing this game for far to long never actually dropped my sub until the game went F2P but even then I came back and paid in spurts.

    My favorite bug that happened I don't remember the exact mission I was on but it was one of those ones you enter from a train. I entered it on a hero, and ended up in a completely different mission that was owned by a villain on the same server. This was before villians and heros really interacted aside from the couple pvp zones and pocket D. The other player saw me I saw him. We were attack-able, but with none of the standard pvp balancing stuff done. Me being on a tank I just kind of stood there while the villain just kind spent a while trying to kill me before giving up and continuing on. I followed her around a bit before going back and exiting the mission. I always kind of hopped that the bug would happen again sometime, but it never did.
  4. Alright thanks for the help both of you. I took the build you gave dreamkeeper and added to it, I got a few extra defense things just in case I run into some neg energy damage as that could be an issue and some more recharge and regen.

  5. Hi everyone I'm leveling an elec/eng tank and I am having issues making an IO build for it. Trying to get the softcap s/l with it at least but not really getting anywhere in mids while trying.

    I have made a inv/kin build before but not sure why I just can't seem to get a proper build with this. would anyone out there be able to give me some advice? or maybe a sample build I could take and maybe adjust to fit myself? any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.
  6. ((Sorry for the lack of posting guys just thought I'd stop in and let you know I won't be posting until I find myself a new job.))
  7. ((sorry guys I'll make a post when I get home from work))
  8. Nyx and Anthius easily paced behind Acanous an uneasy silence between the two. Both landing right behind him.

    Nyx looked over the airfield, "So what are we looking for here anyway?"
  9. Anthius looked over at Nyx as Acanous pointed her out, then sighed. "More of an acquaintance really, and if she's asking to ag along she is able to take care of herself." He'd have to find out what she was doing here when he could talk to her in private.

    Nyx smiled, "See keeper, I won't slow you down at all."
  10. Nyx frowned at the thought of being left behind and let go of Acanous. "No way no how, I'm going with you, I have to pay you back, and I'm far from innocent I can help with whatever it is you're off to do. The only reason I was running was because I'm a bit of a one trick pony and those demons just shrug off fire." She then pointed over towards Anthius still making his way back. "Just ask our white winged friend over there, I can handle myself."
  11. ((Sorry been busy company's closing down the cen ter I work at and am updating my resume and such))

    Nyx smiled, she unwrapped her legs from around him but still held onto him. "Aww, but whats the fun in that. Are you saying a big strong man such as yourself can't lift a little thing like me?"
  12. ((I agree the power levels have gotten out of hand, both my characters powers are fairly easily limited, and I would actually prefer if this went back to a reasonable power level))

    After Nyx had witnessed Acanous dispatch the demons she literally jumped onto his back. Wraping her legs and arm around him. "Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you. How can I pay you back for this keeper?"

    At the same time Anthius discarded the disemboweled corpse of the Imp, and made his way back slowly to the ATC. He didn't like this, why would demons be chaseing a lone girl?
  13. Anthius saw Nyx fly by him he didn't really get a good look to see her for who she was but she was obviously running away. He turned around to see the Imps pursuing. He smiled, time for some fun then simply disappeared from where he had been flying moving fast enough that almost nothing would be able to follow his movements. The Archangel appeared below the Imp and grabbed it by the base of it's tail right above it's deadly stinger, and flung the monster to the ground instantly landing on it when it hit the ground. Anth was confident Acanous could handle the other two, he wanted to question this one.

    Nyx slowed down as she looked back and saw one of her pursuers taken out, and slowed down. She had found people to help her and knew they'd take out the demons in no time.
  14. ((Ow that poke hurts. Anyway i got some crap that came up so i haven't been able to post should be able to get one in sometime tomorrow.))
  15. ((Reading now it's probably a good as time to any to bring her out.))

    First the huge blast messing with the dimensional fabrics in the area, now the huge influx of souls on their way to hell. These two factors gave Nyx her perfect chance to escape from Hell. Her only problem now was 3 imp like demons that stood one and a half times her height saw her making her escape and had no intention of letting her leave. Covering her hands in negative energy she grabbed one of the holes the souls were making their way through and pulled herself slowly to the other side. She slowly came out the other side to see steel canyon.

    Not really in the condition she remembered it but she really didn't have the time to sit there an gawk. After pulling herself through she unfurled her black feathered wings and took off to the sky the 3 imps not far behind her. While speeding between building's trying to lose her pursuers she spotted a familiar pair of white wings following a strange vehicle. She sped off in that direction hoping the people there could handle a couple lower demons.

    It didn't take long before she flew over top of the ATC so she would hopefully also take notice of any of crew inside that might hopefully be willing to lend a hand.
  16. ((sorry for the delay trying to figure out how to introduce another character, and Anth isn't doing much at the moment. But I've figured it out and will be introducing another character once there's a good spot for me to do it properly.))

    Anthius politely refused the ride. "Thank you for the offer but I prefer to follow under my own power." He took a few steps away and let his Angelic wings grow out of his back, and motioned for them to go on intending to follow after them.
  17. Anthius stepped down into 4 dimensions at the same time as Acanous. He nodded his agreement. "That blast was pretty damn big would have sent me back home had I not been in the bubble."

    Anthius watched as the newcomers came and added their input. "Well I agree we should check it out though, even though our archer friend here seems to know who it was. And you're being offered a lift at that. So I think we're all in agreement on where to go but before we do."

    Anthius takes a step towards Acanous his right hand glowing with divine energy. he places it on Acanous' shoulder and sends healing energy through him.

    "We need have you at least looking presentable if we're going to meet new people Keeper."
  18. ((Well I'm back, mostly anyway. Couldn't even get me out of a dispersion bubble huh Ac))

    Anthius looked around inside the dispersion bubble, yup, it was time to get out, he could probably try mimicking Acanous and rip it apart from dimensions and spaces it didn't reach but really that wasn't his style. Really they could easily stop him from doing what he was about to do but to do so they'd have to drop the bubble and he'd be gone then anyway.

    "Well thanks for the ride but my stop was in the other direction, I'll make my way there myself, thanks."

    His sword again materialized in his hand glowing with holy energy. It never actually connected with the dispersion bubble the sword actually seemed to disappear slightly before it would have hit. He twisted the hilt of his sword and the tear in space/time he had just riped opened up wide enough for him to walk through. He then did just that as the rip closed itself behind him with the help from the divine energy he had put into it.

    He appeared beside Acanous about a second later in all the dimensions Acanous was currently residing in.

    "You look like crap, you know that right?"
  19. ((Hey guys I'm not really gonna be able to post until after new years as such I'll let Acanous control Anthius for now as he knows his capabilities better than most))
  20. Anthius did nothing to move out of the way of Acanous as he teleported them out of there. Then toook a moment to sit down and catch his breath

    He looked back over at the keeper. after his question. "Oh you know me. The big guy tells me to go somewhere or help someone. He actually asked me to keep an eye on you, so here I am making sure you don't get yourself killed."

    "What about you keeper, what brings you to this place?"
  21. ((sorry guys Christmas season is distracting, don't have time to post tonight I'll get one up tommorow))
  22. ((yeah that whole day job thing can kinda keep people from posting, then Christmas shopping and all the other fun stuff to do in this season. And since the drones had already missed one skyraider they can obviously miss.))

    Anthius barely had time to react to the lightning bolt as he tucked his wings in and spun out of the way, the bolt passing inches away from his chest. He was forced off of the offensive though and couldn't finish his attack. He then let his wings dissipate into a pile of feathers he didn't need them to fly and weren't really helping his mobility at the moment. He took a quick moment to survey the surroundings, with the drones coming out they were defiantly out gunned here.

    He was about to yell at Acanous to make an escape when Acanous yelled the same thing to him. So he rose up and flew after Acanous pushing as fast as he could (activating elude) to leave their enemies far behind. He felt a slight pull as the drone tried to teleport him but he was moving much to fast for the port to get a hold on him to move him anywhere.

    He looks over at his friend while flying away "It's never a dull day with you around is it Keeper."
  23. Anthius stretched his angelic wings flying over steel canyon in a low gliding flight. He sighed to himself. "Now where the hell has that keeper gone, I get sent out to give the guy a hand and of course he goes to one of these planes where i can't find him in an instant." He stopped his glide looking around above an office building that seemed to have a freshly blown hole in the wall and looked through it to see the very person he was looking for, getting his [censored] kicked. "Of course," he mutters to himself.

    He floats back up out of sight and starts concentrating bringing more of whats happening in his immediate surroundings into focus(Focused fighting, focused senses, and evasion) then took a moment to get in a battle ready position(practiced brawler) just as he finished he noticed the arbiter appear between him and Acanous. Much closer to Acanous then himself but that didn't give Anthius much time to act. He he called his sword into his hand as it burst into flame (buildup) as the Arbiter took that first shot that went over his friends head. He flew at the Arbiter's back raising it up bringing it down full force onto the Arbiter's head(Headsplitter).
