Sign me up please! Hypo is now at 49.5 and it would be cool to hit 50 on the States tf.

You're not elite until you can comfortably navigate the Shadow Shards or Grandville with just SS. Until then you're just a pretender (I can do neither).

Oh nearly forgot...

I've noticed it picking up again recently. I hope it doesnt return to the dark days of summer '07 where you couldnt walk 10 yards without rubberbanding and cars would fly down the road sideways!

Suppose you are right. Suppose adding widow tails is easy.

How do you then explain why they have not been added yet?

[/ QUOTE ]

Because Jay has been busy creating booster pack cossies that actually generate cash?

Edit - not that I'm suggesting the widow capes are easy, it's probably a combo of Jay being busy and the capes being tricky.

Happy birthday Khorak, hope your day is full of [censored], pillaging, death and destruction.

Stop running with elite teams then. Go join some newbie pugs (yes they do still exist) and then tell me there's no challenge left in this game.

I'm with Praf on this one. A lot of people play what is percieved as being the uber set. We've seen fotm's change from one combo to another over the years. Nerf SS/WP and all you'll do is cause that particular crowd of players to start on the new fotm.

Not one decent argument has been given by the OP as to how they would nerf SS/WP brutes without murdering tanks, stalkers, scrappers that use one of these powersets (or brutes that only use one of these sets).

Managed to catch a pic of Echo dinging 50

You mean there's actually a tank in there somewhere?

[/ QUOTE ]

Look closer Echo is the white flash with the sparkles flying out! Not that it resembles a tank though.

Can you paste them (Control+v) from the clipboard?

[/ QUOTE ]

Nope, I tried it recently and had to settle with plain english Aimee Maginot.

Lots of alting for me this weekend and happy with the progress.

Stalker from 41 to 43
Pb from 13 to 16
Crab from 40 to 42
MM from 16 to 32
Defender from 45 to almost 47.

Oh and another shout out to the awful sunday evening lag. Thumbs up to the rest of the weekend though.

I'm up for shards 2. Normal 7pm kick off?

I just tested it for you. No matter what tier pet you use to summon the soul it is always classed as a Henchmen, hope this helps with your secret plan.

It's true what they say.... Give someone something for free, and they'll STILL complain about it!

It's better than the 45 month reward, at least!

[/ QUOTE ]

Be fair, why would a 57 months veteran need a 50% discount at Icon? Cossie tokens coming out of their ears and probably a pile of cash that would make Sheikh Mansour green with envy.

I cant remember the last time I had to pay for a cossie change and I have ages to go to 57 months. Oh and dont take this as a moan, just wanted to point out that this reward seems completely pointless.

Great, because I have SS and er, SS

Guys I've done this task force before, but in one sitting, and it was painful! As your breaking it up into segments i'd be happier trying it again. Put me down as a substitute. I'll log on and if you dont have a full team i'll join for some rularuu bashing.

A large energy flash

This one is easily achievable for dominators. You can create a bind or macro so that when you activate domination you change your costume. It looks pretty seemless because of the flash animation when you hit dom. Not too great from an rp perspective I guess as you need dom charged so it can't be used at will but it's still pretty fun and great for those Jekyll & Hyde type concepts.

I'm struggling to see what your point really is. Are you calling for a nerf to WP or a buff to other secondaries?

In my opinion all brutes are overpowered, hell that's what makes them fun. Even my EA brute, the worst of all the secondaries, has successfully played the only 'tank' on the itf, lgtf and lrsf.

How could a buff to any of the secondaries really be justified? That just leaves nerfing wp. How would you do this without breaking it for other ATs (or even for the brutes)?

Is that some kind of magical weapon?

You should know. You have wielded the Golden Girl+1 24,132 times.

I think we need to merge the forums. Gone are the days when I could log on and get a flamewar without even sending a pm.

also a tip regarding the garbled tells...while backspace doesn't reply to them, you can use /r to reply to them if you don't zone/leave mission before replying to them.

[/ QUOTE ]

Nice tip thanks! I almost missed a tell from a long lost friend a few weeks ago due to the bug. Luckily she sent another!

You summed it up in your OP. You do not like your time being wasted, the same can be said for a lot of people who put 'no blinds' in their search comment.

A blind invite contains no information - what level is the team, how many members does it have, what type of missions are you doing? That sort of thing. Even if the recipient of the invite is looking for a team they are well withing their rights to ask for a message before getting invites - So that they dont waste their time.

With the number of fill and farm requests you get these days I think a polite message is even more justified.

Anyone else noticed that the Valkyrie gloves go through most of the shields?

[/ QUOTE ]

If you want to avoid clipping you can choose the valkyrie smooth gloves. They come without the 'bulge' and still look pretty cool.

Great pack, Jay is so sexy! Provided the perfect finishing touches to a couple of my characters. Havent used the complete set for a character yet. Oh and the cape is pure awesome. Mission tp is great and is worth the price alone.

- I want boots without that big bump on knees. I can go without the bump on gloves, shoulders and wings. But not boots. Two versions without the bumps, wings and no wings.

[/ QUOTE ]

You also get a valkyrie option under Tights/Smooth(?) for boots if you want a less over the top version. Gives the valkyrie scale pattern with a bit of shiney metal on the front.
