Which is odd, because Group Fly no longer has a debuff.
As to it no longer having the debuff? the toggle, wiki and screaming team mates seem to want to tell me different! So.. it's getting dropped in favor of some mace mastery loving once i side switch lol! -
Quote:Oh yeah. from what i've seen Mu is very popular for MMs how ever i am blue side.. and.. i'm not real sure i want to switch sides to get it... though i confess at the time of posting this it does sound kinda fun as it adds even more content and badges. Not to mention getting a cool techno mace out of the deal!Originally Posted by Lewisite
Check out the Mace mastery shield, its a pretty impressive def bonus. Mu mastery adds strong resists... But then I tend to play very tanky mm's.
Also the mu mastery electric fences is awesome, aoe immobilize with -kb, great for keeping them in a burn patch. -

Set yourself some comfortable minimum that you don't want to drop below and spend your head away as long as you're above it. It's what works for me.
This.. is what i do in many games i say ok i have XXX amount and i refuse to go under it. I do the same thing with Inf.. I treat it like a smaller game the mini money game! In this way i can appease what ever crazy hoarding disorder i have ( though i defiantly do not hoard Insp.) and buy some goodies! -
Brand new player here.i started in November the 27th I'm ViP ..I have been eagerly awaiting my December token I received my stipend on the 28th no token..
came to the forums found this thread figured i would wait till the end of the month(today) got a server transfer no token.. Came back to this thread to find even you vets have no idea whats going on! I Do think i got a token on the 23rd when i used some Christmas money to buy PP, I wish there was some way to track tokens along with stipend! But -if- i received my monthly token on the 23rd( which im still not sure if that was it or not.. then there does in fact seem to be some magical significance with that date!
I do enjoy CoH very much if i did'nt i would not have subscribed, how ever i want my tokens! cuse as i stated before i am new so i'm eager to get the fun goodies from the rewards tree! It is just a bit frustrating when i ask about it and even 7 yr vets throw there hands up and say " I onno"
In closing I felt i should post about the 23rd anomaly maybe it will help future races to decipher the mystery of the tokens. -
I'm a new player only since like late November so everything is new and exciting.. i passed up the martial arts bundle and i'm kicking myself for that! But really from my perspective the market seems to work fine..granted i have to do additional research like go to the wiki to see costumes or the forums to find out if for example the science set still comes with super tailor access ( which it does not) so perhaps better imagery could be added * shrugs*.
As a new player there are things in the market i can get that you vets already have like, super tailor, pocket D teleport, justice costume..Then of course there is the rocket board...( super tailor is on sale so i'm seriously considering that!)
My problem how ever is i'm cheap! One reason i passed up the martial arts set * kicks again* Now i check everyday for a new bundle Ha! -
Quote:Just don't turn that on in a team! seems folks really do not like that -12% def or what ever it is! touchy! Dragging yeah..I was just talking about this in another post.. easier for me to dismiss and resummon even on passive my minions tend to attract more attention than i want!Originally Posted by Psylenz
I have to vote hover/fly/group fly.
I don't drag pets with group fly across zones, but it is very useful for positioning in missions where there is a change in elevation and you want the pets *here* and NOT run up some random catwalk and aggro Cthulu and everyone else on the way.
Bots/PD here and I have fly/hover/group fly..though i have been considering dropping group i've used it for positioning solo and even for helping move stubborn escorts that do not like to jump ( i'm looking at you Faultline!) Hover how ever comes in super handy with its pseudo KB protection and allows you (or me) to heal my Mechas while there on multiple levels like steps and ramps. Fly comes in handy for scouting outdoor maps then find a safe place to land and summon your minions( assuming there are no snipers i fly really low in founder's after being downed a couple times) I have also actually thought about getting the rocket board to drop fly as well since i use hover in combat... Also and maybe someone knows more than me but i think there is a group fly temp power?
I have super jump on a few alts.. it is.. a nice power how ever i tend to bounce into the side of building a lot ( specially on red side my gosh!)
Never tried Teleport but i hear it works best with faster machines and super speed just doesn't seem that exciting to me ( no offense!)
My advice is to take what ever you feel is thematically appropriate. I have a demon MM on red side that is herself a demon with wings so she flies as well. -
Ah some great tips, thank you! I had avoided Def buffs in the protection bots because i assumed it was for their personal defense. I see now that it is for the bubble? if so very cool! now if i could get them to cast it on me first thing!
I'm sad about hover and def but i will keep it non the less its truly useful mostly because i can hover above a fight or steps etc to keep my mechas happy and healthy.Though i wonder if combat jumping and hover stack even though i'd hate to run even more toggles than i already am!
Share pain believe it or not has come in handy both grouping and solo. It is a very large heal very fast cast the damage it does to me is minor, but being able to heal my assault or a group tank for 500+ life has saved me more than a few times.
Group Fly on the other hand, yeah i know about the getting yelled at part. Some folks just don't understand your dragging an army around behind you and that seems to draw a lot of attention. So i think that power might be out the door..It seems to almost be just as fast if not faster to fly to my destination and re-summon, than to move at a slow pace so they all keep up! Then i can take burst ( mostly cuse i want the cool unlockable rifles i've seen :P)
About detailed information is there a place that has the numbers? the wiki only has a description of powers but if i could see raw data or something near it , that would help i'm sure.
Lastly about epics. costume is indeed important to me so how do you mean -ruin-? When you mention force are you talking about field mastery? cuse i have to admit i was already leaning towards field or charge( charge because if it's hold) -
Well i have been playing CoH for a little over a month now brought here by my boyfriend who has since disappeared but i am still around! Any way! I am still learning all the terminology so pardon me if i do not sound hip or use the wrong words.
My first AT and my fave is a Bots(or mechas as the good Malice says) MM. At the time i made her i was brand new so picked PD because i wanted to heal. Probably as not the best choice but 37 levels later i'm still having a blast! I lurk the boards and have about 20 bookmarks for different builds, guides, rants you name it, I got Mids so i wanted to accomplish a few things 1) to get a critique perhaps of my current build, to see if i'm on the right track 2) i wanted to play with mids! hey that thing is neat!
A few things to note one as i said earlier i tend to solo a lot perhaps more than i should or want to so i try to make my babies and myself rather sturdy. another thing is i am still real iffy about group fly. I have used it in some situations alone but really only a hand full of times one of those times it was not for my bots but for that silly Fault line when i was rescuing him from the dreaded Rikti ( i mean really that boy refused to jump!)...I'm totlay open to alternate suggestions for it.. i use conduit because on the times i have grouped it has saved the day! Also i'm mostly waiting on 47 to start using sets.
So here is the build don't yell at me about the pink i have no clue what it's going to look like i am hoping pretty! As i said it is only 37 the slot placement is bugging me for some reason. OH and i am blue side i do not want to alignment shift with her so maybe while i'm bugging you guys you could throw out some suggestions for my upcoming APP?
EDIT: Huh, seems i messed up the data thing at the bottom. I'm working on that
