Hahahahahah.. The cutest thread ever! <3

Hi! This is Antoinette if you remember me from Rogue Magazine! I'm enjoying my experience in Champions Online. Re-created my main toon in CO.
I have my graphics on very high and also playing on my Alienware PC.
This is the underwater shot in Lemuria. No lines:
My new favorite Zone, Vibora Bay! My toon is facing a gate with light:
My favorite part of Canada:
My favorite feature in this game is getting wet! No, not that, I mean you get soaked! This is so realistic! My apartment (Hideout):
Yes, I know all my characters are so skinny!
Also if you want the feel of CoH in combat this is my settings so I'm closer to home (City of Heroes.)

I loved it! Thanks for making this vid! I loved the last last part of the video zooming out. The Hamidon was jellin' and the shot of Rularuu's with their hands up in the air, melted my heart. And! I'm such a fan of Owl City! <3

Quote:I actually started playing CO again, and I proved this statement to be FALSE when I came back. Not to offend you or something.Either the combat is very bad (CO), the whole system is plain weird..
The game has improved drastically, even I who quit CO years ago for the same reason as yours.
Here is how I fixed the combat settings in CO:
1. Go to options.
2. Click Controls Tab. (Not Controller)
3. Find "Only Attack if Target Selected," and turn if OFF! Yes, OFF!
4. Recommend this to anyone who played or is playing CO who has not found out about this setting.
You can copy my setup. Ever since I found out about this settings, I've enjoyed CO and been my CoH substitute.
I asked one of the Veteran players in CO who is closed with the devs. He mentioned that it was suggested by many players to be used as default. But no responses. I figured, some sets like Celestial set cannot benefit from this settings. Because some of the powers are used to target self or heal self and not just for the purpose of attacking critters.
Many players have thanked me for this information. Please pass this along! -
You can use your gold in Tera to buy game time, they called it "Chronoscrolls." It's 30 days real time. It's very cheap and affordable when you hit mid level. Yes, you can farm them by killing random mobs.
I want to be honest with my review since I don't want to waste any money myself...
Of all the games you mentioned, Tera is by far superior when it comes to combat.. In fact, in all MMO's out there at the moment. The combat is pretty straight forward. No "gimmicks." Not clunky either. Definitely the new generation MMO. It's literally action combat.
For Melee and Range class, It's basically aim and shoot. Dodge their attacks by moving away from them or running away from their attacks (like 1 or 2 steps away to dodge it...) And no, it's not that difficult. At early levels, the NPC's are very forgiving and slow, but definitely not dumb. Each NPC's has their own moves and you will definitely notice their moves and figure out a way to avoid their attacks or find a better way to attack them especially BAMs (Big A** Monsters.) Regular mobs are pretty easy.
As for BAMs the game actually wants you to study their moves, to find a better way to avoid their attacks. They are basically Huge Huge monsters. With that said, they have a bigger area, which means, it's harder to dodge. They are smarter NPC's that jumps so much and run just to stomp on you.
The level cap is 60. From lvl 1 - 59, the game is great if you are all about the experience, since gear is not important. When you reach lvl 60, the game shifts just like every other MMO's. It is completely different feeling, since you have to do dungeons after dungeons to get the right gear for you to do Hard Mode dungeons.
Now, not so much grind, since Nexus Raid is a daily thing now. You can get lucky and roll on a superior gear. All you have to do is enchant it to get better stats. Which is a different story. Enchanting is by luck if you want higher stats. On December they will add a patch that gives you high chance to enchant your gear every time you enchant an item.
The Races in Tera are unique. Each gender, each race has their own movements and animations and combat animations. The movements are very realistic to me, especially the Castanics. You will notice other MMO's have stiff movements especially running. In Tera, it's very smooth and very well made. When you are in combat, it's so pleasant to see action happening, because each animation is very well made.
My main toon is a level 60 Priest. The best character/class I've played in my whole gaming experience in Tera. Priests have one of the highest HP classes in the game. They have a decent damage for soloing and have over powered heals.
I never once had a hard time healing anyone, even on random dungeons. Tera's healing concept is very good for me. You can put healing patches on the floor. If that fails, you can lock the target on them and heal them from far. You can buff them with health regen buffs which lasts for 15 minutes just like any other buffs they have.
The game is really good, all it needs is a good community to do great. The closest community they have like CoH is the RP server, Celestial Hills. PvP and PvE servers are an animal pound. Beware of Dogs.
Negatives:
The only negative thing about Tera for me is the enchanting system at the moment.
The PvP community is not for the good in heart.
The fact that when you try to Queue for random dungeons, you will encounter PvP players and PvE players that will look down on you coming from RP server.
Dungeons queues requires a Healer and a Tank to continue. (You can create your own dungeon team without a tank or a healer but that will take skill.)
That's all I can think of, for now. Let me know if you have any other questions. -
Ok, that video made me emotional. This is amazing work. Thanks VoodooGirl! <3

Quote:Wow, I'm gonna be all over CoH 2 when that happens. I don't know how Tera did it, but it's revolutionizing. The best combat system I've ever seen in MMO, no gimmicks whatsoever.I think my ideal MMO would be City of Heroes 2 remade with the same engine and combat style as Tera...
Tera is still a "generic" fantasy MMO with reeaaally generic quests... but the combat is the most fun I've had in a while, MMO and non-MMO games combined.
COH mechanics (sidekicking, alignement, etc), lore and customization merged with Tera-like combat would be awesome... -
Quote:What sash? I want the top she's wearing now!Just give us a sash for male and huge models already. Please just move it to the top of the list. It has been requested since Kheldians were put in the game, is it not about time to do it?
I will say that I like the sash the Tsoo wear better than the carnie sash though. It has a more martial arts look to it.
Oh, and that hat would be nice too. I am sure the females are also going to want that top. The new Tattoo would be nice also. Hey I have an idea, how about a costume pack with ALL of the Tsoo costume items. Note to that the Tsoo use about every power in the game with those skirts on...
Also, expect a whole bunch more posts to be added to this thread after the next issue is released.
Been a long time since we heard from anyone but Dink. I hope David, Jay, and the other art guys are ok. -

Awww, weird.. I used to have pink [Rest]. Wonder what happened to it... I need to re-download Corva's packs. -

To me Netherworld is on another dimension, just like psychic plane, only you pass by it when you die and if you are a bad bad person there's a chance the shadows will take your soul away and remain there and suffer there, until someone summons your soul back only to harness it. It's an evil purgatory. I can imagine there is a never ending discomfort, you feel very negative and rebellious, so much negative energy! No wonder why everything there wants to get out of there and do chaos. After all it's my view of it...

Oh I love the combat part! When that thorn girl popped out and used her powers on you, it was so on! Great job GG, thanks for sharing us your awesome hard work!

OMG just voted for CoH, that was fun!
-
I kept it cuz they look cute, like the dog. I use it to show it off. They are so lazy too, and slow...

Quote:That's a common misconception. Mind is really good in melee. Terrify is the only cone power it has, and is debatable. You can go in the middle of the mob and jump high and click it and it turns into TAOE. The aoe hold, the aoe sleep, the confuse all very very melee friendly. The range and radius are out of this world.. In the middle of the mob it feels like having multiple Pbaoe powers. Mind is really flexible, anyway you want it, it works.What level are you? I like the idea of mind's hard controls paired with dark assault, but am worried that dark assault seems so PBAOE/melee and mind is all ranged. What are your thoughts on this?
Thanks!
To me dark assault is divided into 2. Almost half and half, almost too busy for me. You'll be starting in range then go into melee, then range again if you have too. You'll find yourself in range most of the time on teams actually. So DA is not really on Pbaoe side. It depends on your build. -
1. Villains
2. Dominator
3. Mind Control/Psionic//Telekinetic/Telepathic/Psychic etc.
4. Villain Side, but I really like beautiful things, and scenery... So I also like Imperial City, the buildings are nice and the details the whole zone has.
5. Female
6. Don't RP much but it's nerve wracking and "panic mode" when someone RP's me out of nowhere (I play along to challenge myself. I just sometimes RP by myself while fighting stuff... LOL), fun sometimes and very scary. Where's the pause button when you need it?! My bf laughed at me when he caught me RPing, he called me "Role Player!!!"

The very basic stuff we need are:
Cotton - Tights (Top and Bottom), Gloves, Skirts, Prints, Boots (Flat, Stilettos, Thigh Highs, etc.), Masks, Capes
Shiny - Tights (Top and Bottom), Gloves, Skirts, Prints, Boots (Flat, Stilettos, Thigh Highs, etc.), Masks, Capes
Leather -Tights (Top and Bottom), Gloves, Skirts, Prints, Boots (Flat, Stilettos, Thigh Highs, etc.), Masks, Capes
Metallic - Tights (Top and Bottom), Gloves, Skirts, Prints, Boots (Flat, Stilettos, Thigh Highs, etc.), Masks, Capes
I'm pretty sure this will cover the Golden Age theme and many more themes.
Add Masks that are not painted kinda like the Jester masks.
As for hairstyles:
Curly long hairstyles.
"Twiggy" haircut. -
Awww, be safe and God bless! We will miss your beautiful accent! Thank you for everything! You're the best! <3

I set up multiple explosives on my base for fun! wooo!

Awww, I used to RPvP! I do it on my main toon, then perma domination happened and I literally killed everyone I saw, I was feared by a few!
I then made text macros whenever I attack someone or killed someone! It was lots of fun!!! Some players would RP me back to my macros it was so cute and I played along more! Till one guy worshiped me whenever he saw me in PvP zones and sends me tells to not kill him! Hilarious!
I suck now in PvP, the end! -
Want this be available in Paragon Market!
I'll call it, Soul Path Aura!
