  1. Well worth the money paid for the pack just for this power alone in my opinion (as often as I play)
  2. No, havent read the whole 13 pages of responses, but wanted to personally say that after running a couple of BAF's (a couple of wins a couple of loses) that I feel I20 overall with its league feature is a great upgrade. Devs just need to make sure there are more and more of these type of TFs in the future issues, and maybe even at lower levels.
  3. I personally love my electric electric brute. Tough as nails and can pretty much substitute as a tank. After about 5 'do-over's I think I got it right this time.

    This takes nothing away from the love I have for my ice tank or my SoA crab
    They are all my children and I love them equally
  4. This happened to me on 2 different toons today where I dropped the oro portal but for the life of me could not click into it..... I20 related?
    Could be
    Anyone else?
  5. I prefer higher thread counts in all my bedsheets
  6. Cool - nice info guys -- much appreciated
  7. So just wondering about
    this
    Focused Accuracy
    When this power is activated, the Hero focuses his senses to dramatically improve his chance to hit. Additionally, Focused Accuracy increases your Perception, allowing you to better see stealthy foes. It also grants you resistance to powers that debuff your chance to hit. Focused Accuracy is a toggle power and must be activated and deactivated manually. Like all toggle powers, Focused Accuracy drains Endurance while active.


    but mostly this

    Physical Perfection
    By achieving perfect harmony of body, mind and spirit you are able to regenerate health and endurance slightly faster than normal. This power is always active and consumes no endurance. You must be level 44 and have Conserve Power or Focused Accuracy before selecting this power.


    to give my Energy Energy brute better survivability. Just wondering if anyone out there uses Physical Perfection on their brute and if so how decent the regen rate on this power is

    Thoughts?

    At some point the Stalker said something about how it was the best run ITF team he'd been on all week. Nothing like randomly getting the best force multipliers in the game all on your team.
    This 100%
    I ran a complete pick up group of I dont know what's yesterday afternoon for a Tin Mage.. I just invited anyone that wanted in, and we completed the thing in 31 mins !
    Seriously one of the best teams Ive had the pleasure of starting up in a looong time.
    Sometimes you get lucky and get a great group where everyone is on the ball !

Anybody know why entire sections of the city are disappearing? (I suspect a Nemesis plot...)
    Last time this happened to me was in Grandville on a Friday night...
    Guess what...
    Saturday morning, the graphics card in my laptop went PFFFTTT after about 2 mins in-game.
  14. It didnt happen to me but one of the peeps I was running this with Thursday complained about his sound doing the same thing

    There's no reason to get antsy, no one's saying omg you can't do that!!!!, just pointing out alternatives that are applicable to the OP's original question: "What to do about Market Blockers?" - the two good answers being pay it and suck it up, or to place a bid and wait a little bit. Both are fine answers, neither is intrinsically better or worse than the other.
    Ahh but you quoted me in your 2nd post on this thread even tho my post was nothing about multi-million inf items either...

    No biggie.. Im done with this thread anyway.. Ill say it again... I put myself up as an example of why the OP might see large differences in price of salvage on the BM. Nothing more

    100+ Million - 2Billion inf items are not what the OP's OP was in regards to

    and not what I responded about
    Sorry, really not trying to be Mr Jerk here, but all I was doing was giving myself as an example to why the OP might see the large difference in salvage prices and now I have people telling me how I should spend my inf on game and my time. Ridiculous !

    Ill let your first remark go as I could care less what you think about me or how much of a vet you are or are not. Forum trawler? Perhaps, seeing as you started a trial account just so you can keep posting on the boards.

    As I said.. if I have limited game play time and am at the BM to buy and then craft something, why bid then leave then come back to check and see if my salvage was bought. I prefer to just pay a little something extra in order to NOT WAIT. If I want it now, then I want it now.. Not after 2 missions.
    My original post was intended to give the OP one reason they may encounter the price differential.
  20. I love how people who can read DONT.
    As I said -- "" When you only have a limited time to play, its worth it for me not to wait 4 minutes until my bid of 2000 is accepted ""
    So waiting more than 10 seconds or going and running another mission while I wait is not an option I choose to use.. thus why I said what I said LOL
    Just cuz I pays lots doesnt mean u haz to

    PS - Always good to get a "PRO TIP" from someone registered on the forum March 2011 with 5 posts under their belt LOL
  21. Ran an ITF level shifted last night and came out with 9 shards (actually 1 above my average of 8 per ITF) and at one point had a triple shard drop, so I dont think level shifting matters TBH

    post offer 4000 - wait 10 secs - cancel offer
    post offer 50000 - ding its mine
    When you only have a limited time to play, its worth it for me not to wait 4 minutes until my bid of 2000 is accepted
  23. Happened to me just a couple of days ago on the boss of the last mission in Ice Mistral.. Right as the team was ready to jump in and start swinging, I hit that wonderful button on my tank and was reduced to becoming a cheerleading monkey.. nothing more. By the time I reverted back to my tank, the boss was dead and the TF was done LOL

    Thank goodness I was on a good PUG team
