A wentworths somelace in zone would make it absolutely perfect.

    .....

    5. make it at least semi convenient to get to.. no there doesnt have to be a gate to the new DA in every zone but at least give us the same sort of access as the rwz (2 to 3 zones with direct access on each side red and blue]. much more convenient than the entrance to cimerora which requires getting to a midnight club, zone for the outer xhamber to the innner chambers of the club and then zoning again, a third time, to actually get to the task force.
    Wendy had some great points but these two are my big requests - Please?!?

    Last night, I ran a mission in DA and looked around while gathering badges. It was my "goodbye tour" of the zone. The shades were there in bunches and just for grins, I saved a couple and they were very grateful . Personally, I don't like the zone, never have, but I know some people love it and that's okay too.

    The fog was cool for all of about 15 minutes. Now it's a big annoyance. I normally avoid the zone or use mission teleporter if I can't. I drop or complete missions in DA just to avoid it. I love the spooky feel, but "Spooky", IMO, can be done fine without fog or at least this version of fog. Is there a way to keep the shades? Those are cool.

    Well, I'd much rather have the individual costume pieces, not a transformation power... so - I'll be patient waiting for those *hint* *hint*

    If they're trying for a story that impacts the CoH universe and not as a gimmick (let's kill a "major" character - yeah! what a great idea!), then to me, Statesman is a good choice as he's the face of CoH. I don't know that anyone else dying would have the same impact for the story going forward as losing Statesman. IMO, it would make things more interesting storywise.

    That said, of the eight, I'd like to keep Numina, she's been through enough. But as she's already *dead*, I don't know that she counts for the OP's question.

  14. I'm glad to hear that this is what's causing it. Was making SG adjustments yesterday and Atlas was just, well awful, Hollows wasn't much better, finally logged to desktop and back in again, that helped for awhile. It started again but I was still doing SG adjustments. Never figured this was the problem so I am happy to know why it's happening.
  15. Hi, we'd like to tag along with whichever of the following will better matchup:

  17. Hi !

    I was on several of your runs this weekend on my DB/WP scrapper, Drizzt's Tribute. We succeeded in most, but not all, and I had a great time. I too learned the art of running these two trials from Armored Nictus, aka VillainTech, on my namesake. You did fine leading this weekend and recruiting, which IMO is the hard part. I'll run anytime I'm not working a particular alt.

    I'd like to see more of us try the UG. (I hate Keyes in its current form but may run it every now and then since they're "fixing" it. It is still too gimicky for me to really enjoy, but maybe, with some expectation of not faceplanting every 15 sec, I can give it a go.) The problem I see is UG is too long for most and I hope the devs address this somehow. I actually like the look and feel of that one even though we've failed every run I've been on, which is only a handful, including the one we tried this weekend. I'm not proficient to feel comfortable with it yet and would like to get there.

    - And you would know I saw a UG forming last night and couldn't join because I didn't have time.... drat -

    Here's to hoping the new trials are better than Keyes and shorter than UG! I would like some reasonable variety in iTrial grinding.
  18. I am going to try my best to be there with my scrapper namesake: Asgardian Blade
    I missed getting a couple of Phalanx TF with him, so thanks for running these!
    @Asgardian_Blade

    Edit: Sorry, Katana/Regen
  19. This is really confusing. We ran two villains through SSA 1.2 for the first time on those toons. Both had frenzy, i.e. reaffirmed at some point their villain status and both got villain merits, which is what I was expecting. I don't see anything we did different from what some of you have posted, except that it was maybe the first run on those toons. We only had time for the one run so I don't know if we'd've gotten the timer driven one (timer wasn't triggered on those two).
  20. Most of the First Ward arc was really, really good. The end was somewhat anticlimactic after the buildup, but overall I enjoyed it. I do hope they give us a way to get Katie back out of the seer network. I felt like a heel putting her back after getting her out in the first place. It's not suitably heroic to leave her there. The other thing I want is a way to beat the ever-loving bejeezus out of Mother. She, more than any Praetor, needs a really good beatdown... Writing that can evoke emotion (*spoilers*) is good writing. That said, I don't intend to run First Ward much except for certain character themes and maybe to change things up.

    Annoyance: Yes, the ambushes while trying to read as have been stated... Protean, there is such a thing as too many ambushes. Please use sparingly to further the story, not just because you can.

    Overall, I give a thumbs up.

    For someone starting, this might be a good one to try, it has a strong heal, great debuffs, hold, fear. DP should do good damage with it (tar patch/ fearsome stare then fire away), plus it has Fluffy. You don't have to know the set is a "debuff" set to enjoy it. I would skip Black Hole unless someone knows a good use for it, I've never found one. I will admit that I am extremely biased to Dark Miasma. I love the set, as it fits my playstyle very well. I haven't played this build but...think I'll roll one.

    I have a Rad/DP defender and DP/Dev blaster. Of those two, I really like the defender but I don't know that Rad is something I'd try right out of the CoH gate.

    Can't believe you don't know the proper spelling of "Lara" Croft

    Then I died.

    I got back and because of the long loads and lag he was back at full HP again.
    Sorry, I had to laugh, but I feel your pain. As someone who has experienced the dreaded "devolution" during a fight, I try to remember to hit Mutation before the fight now. I've also had to beat down an entire mob that's chasing my teammate who turned into a Rikti Monkey. That was funny actually.

    Thanks for this fix!

    So... moving on to beam rifles I guess?
  24. Any ETA on the copy tool? I want to check out a change for one of my 50s and I'd rather do it on Beta/test and not screw up my live build. I'd also like to check out the IO enhancers on a character I'm very familiar with to see if they're worth buying. It was on my to-do list during beta, but I never got around to actually trying those.

    NOTE: I'd much rather problems on LIVE get fixed first, of course, I just don't want you to forget the copy tool in the mayhem of feeding the hamsters.

    Edit: Well, should of posted this in the "Copy tool down?" thread but read this one first - oops.

    if it leaves for good that would make me feel worse than i do, when the Paragon Rewards were announced it was said everyone as of July 1st 2011 who had a Subscription would become VIP and "start accruing rewards", so what happened to that? why shouldnt i get tokens for July, Aug and Sept?

    if i was VIP and since July and i got the 1600 Paragon Points for being VIP since then, why dont i get the 3 Tokens too? the 3 tokens would really help whittle down the money id need to spend right now to get Tier 9 VIP

    As I understand it, the Tier 9 VIP rewards will rotate every so often, I don't know a time frame and I don't care to guess. I don't know if that's any help, but I do know that they've said they will be available again. I am in the boat of not having enough tokens so I'm glad they will rotate back at some point.

    As to Paragon Rewards: we were never promised reward tokens for the time leading up to the release, we were promised Paragon Points (400 per month). Therefore, we are owed no tokens for that time.
