  1. It was a Honor having been there and been able to help you finalize the CoP`s.
    Even if I didn`t make it on the Photo.
  2. I just hope it does not end like the Nemesis Invasion which at the end of the month was just a boring Troll in the lowbie zones who killed you while you were not watching. (IMO)
  3. Not using Twitter nor Facebook.
    Not starting to do either.
    Old fashioned ?
    Maybe
  4. Indeed.
    Silly DEVs. They said States would be gone now.
    I recently hopped through Indie Port and found Sates still there.
    *shrugs*
    So he is still alive I guess?
  5. Is this the I Trail a AE Event or what?
  6. OK.
    Statesman is dead. Has he died officially for the Union RP`ers so far?
    If so has there been some reaction/event I failed to notice?
    Because if not I think we should try to organize a fitting send off.
    Please discuss.

    Well Full Fighting Pool is a bit overblown. I have Kick,Tough and Weave inn a attempt to be a bit less squishy.
  8. As I mentioned I have tried to build my Emp side up too. (In hopes of attracting some permanent group) so terrify is still out there for me.
    I guess I will get it when I finally turn Lvl 32 in January when I return to my computer and can play again .

Once you have terrify, you should still open with either a Confuse or AoE sleep, then Terrify the whole group, and THEN start a single target attack routine.

    I apologize if this is not new info to you, since your tactics are known only to you at this time.
    No. You are really helpful Thank you.

    No I use confuse rarely. I heard it was bad style, and Masshypnosis seems like it has only a very short duration ( and seems to miss often),
    Terrify is next on my to learn list. (But I still consider TP-Friend)
    It looks like I must assign more slots to the Group Attacks...
  10. Its what I usually do but there are some I seem to have trouble putting to sleep/hold. Some Robots and Tank/Brutes (I guess thats what the Bronze Strongmen are) seem barely affected.
  11. I have a Mind/Emp Controller I like and I am very good at Teams (well supportive) but I have no fixed group (I was introduced to two but lets just say it didn`t work out.). I dislike standing around bleating for Teams..
    Is there any way I can make the Character better at solo play?
    So far I got lvl 3o ish and have tough, kick and weave the rest is just regular powers.... (I have a respec)
  12. Maybe that was the problem. I will try and report.
  13. Maybe today ?
    There has just been a announcement about three Hours of downtime .....
  14. I have a similar problem. The Problem is the Toon I want to mail the Inf away from is the one with my Global Name. ( and somehow it does not take the @ in the Address.)

Fitness (Hurdle, Health, Stamina), Leaping (Combat Jumping), Fighting (Boxing as a wasted pick, Tough, Weave) and probably Speed (Hasten), but consider Leadership (Maneuvers, Tactics). If you buy no other IOs, pick up a Steadfast Protection unique and a Kismet unique while you level.
    Hm mostly what I did. (Ok. I have not taken parry at the first possibility.)
    You think Fitness is still necessary ?
    It will soon be inherent I hear.
    I might be able to tough it out until then....
  16. Any tips for a Broadsword/Agility Type ?
  17. Does this work ?
    Is it feasible ?

    (A thousand apology's if this has been asked before but I could not find it.)

    Farming
    1. The act of repeating an action a number of times for the purpose of earning something from the repeated action. In City of Heroes this most often involves resetting a mission a number of times in order to earn something out of the mission multiple times. Things earned vary from experience, to influence/infamy/prestige, to badge credits.
    If I may, please play and learn the game before you resort to farming for anything. Farming is mostly done once you have a lvl 50 or two under your belt, and you have played through most of the content(hopefully).

    If you ever find yourself at a point in your toons career that you don't have enough influence for SO's, give me a shout, I will happily donate some funds to cover some expenses for you as well as point you in the direction of earning your own "shinies".

    I also can't recommend enough that you check out the Mentor Project.
    Will do thanks.
    (That might take while.)

    I am pretty new at this MMO Stuff but I noticed that there seems to be a particular slang (that being not a native English Speaker to boot) I do not really understand.

    I think Anchor is serving as a Teleport Beacon ?
    TP is teleport.

    But beyond that I am bewildered and clueless.
    Can some of the old Hands please clue me ( and the other noobs ) in ?
  22. Because I must if I solo ?
    (It got better since I now have flight.)
    Yeah I know there surely are ways to build better characters then I do (my best Blaster is Lvl13), but hey I am still learning the ropes being a total noob.
