    I have seen two others past 40 and both were 50 on Guardian, I think one has quit and the
    other is retired.

    Is there a way to randomize the way these files load?

    <snip>

    But I always know what my pets will say next, I would like to be surprised

    Maybe this will help: Guide to Random Phrases

    I haven't tried it yet myself....

    The Hollows are optional

    Did you know that if you talk to David Wincott in the Hollows once, you never have to talk to him again? And if you talk to him before you get the mission that sends you to talk to him (from your first level 5 contact) you won't get that mission.


    [/ QUOTE ]

    I think what he was implying is just because you talk to him does not mean you have to take his mission.

    If someone takes the time to add you to their friend list, and they politely tell you why (You are the best tanker ever, your pleasent to hang out with, people love you long time etc...)

    If your NOT going to add them back: Give a reasonable explaination that is not name-calling and put-downs.

    If you ARE going to add them: Give them an ego-boost. Tell them that while YOU may be a good player, tell them that without you, they wouldnt be half of it (Note: only do this if its true.) And then add them right back


    [/ QUOTE ]

    On the other shoe, rather than adding someone to your friends list or asking them if you can, tell them you really enjoyed teaming with them and to look you up any time. If they want to team with you again they will probably ask you to add them to your FL in return. This avoids the the upleasantness of them having to explain why they don't want to be on your FL or you on theirs.

    My one complaint is the glitch that stops us from rotating the camera view now. I wanted to take a picture of MM II from the front, with his new holiday jetpack!

    [/ QUOTE ]

    It works. Hold only the Page Up key then rotate with your mouse. If you have the mouse look/steer (or whatever) button pressed it wont work. If you use the rotate left/right keys it won't work.

    At this point I'm just not sure I want to relearn the game yet again and retool my character yet again.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I understand completely. I'm quickly losing interest in playing my alts. The only saving grace is that:
    1) ED won't affect my tanker much
    2) I never really had a concept for my main and I am always trying to decide what to do with him anyways.

    my pleasure. I'm glad at least someone found this useful!

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Add another person to that list. This is my first MMO and I haven't really played any other RPGs either. Now I have some insight to the PL'ers mind set.

    Also, your guide also makes me feel better for not having a lvl 50 Hero even though I've been playing since the day I1 went live.
  8. Sorry, I don't remember why Radiation Blast wasn't considered.

    Send two guys in with Aim (to make sure they hit) and Irradiate slotted for -Def (so everyone else will then hit). They back up and follow with Electron Haze and Neutron Bomb. That might eliminate the need for everyone/anyone having Tactics. As for EH's knockback I've only used it on Test but it didn't seem to horrible. KB wasn't guaranteed; out of 10 or so villains only a couple went flying. (just observation, no serious testing). Then single target attacks to take those few that went flying. Anywho, just a thought.

    FYI. Team Speak works great. My SG has had to play without it for a week. It's been a very long week!

    Vengence. Never had it. But I've read the following suggestions: Get Recall Friend, a lowbee sacrafice to PL, and you have perma-vengence.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    Vengeance has a fairly hefty timer on it. I'm not convinced that slotting for recharge instead of slotting tohit or defence would be worth it. Slot and use Vengance more as an emergency buff for helping to avoid complete team wipes.


    [/ QUOTE ]

    Perma-Vengence was a poor term to use. To the best of my knowledge Vengence lasts as long as the hero is dead...er... defeated. So let the lowbee sacrafice face plant and leave him/her that way. Just teleport the body with you. One instance of debt and a bunch of exp with no more risk. Now if Vengence does have a time limit on it then this stratedgy would be less usefull.

    Tactics Six Slotted <My team DEFINATLY notices the improvement to their Accuracy, as do I>


    [/ QUOTE ]

    I hear that! My team could tell exactly when I got toggle knocked. They'd stop hitting. It's especailly nice since we usually take on reds and purps.

    Maneuvers and Assault are good. I prefer Assault due to my slot intensive build.

    Vengence. Never had it. But I've read the following suggestions: Get Recall Friend, a lowbee sacrafice to PL, and you have perma-vengence.

    You may want to reset your binds. Also, make sure to load teleport_off.txt first. I've noticed the same thing happen if you load teleport_on.txt first. Sorry I wasn't more clear on that.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    That was it! Thanks!
  13. Heh, tried that without luck. Or should I say without good luck.

    My shift now behaves exactly opposite of what's expected. When let go of the lshift button then the windows go away. When I press it and hold it again they come back. Let go again and they go away.

    Also I cannot teleport with the shift+lbutton when using the lshift. rshift will allow me to teleport with the lbutton.

    Talk about weird.
  14. It would be a great help if you would post the exact syntax of the command you are trying.

    I have my taunt.txt files neatly in a folder called cohbinds directly on my d drive, right next to my keybinds folder.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I'm assuming you are trying:

    /bind_load_file d:\cohbinds\taunt.txt

    That should work.

    Merry Christmas!
