So happy Birthday Maribelle!

Pets aren't affected by recharge buffs. the FF+ rchg are useless to you.

Sounds old. very old.

I'd suggest creating characters on one of the following servers although most are good;
Freedom: unofficial pvp server, all the pvpers moved here. Freedom and Virtue are the two highest population servers
Virtue: unofficial RP server
Justice/Champion/Infinity the runners up for most populated server.

No its terrible. We've got players who've been subscirbed for 7 years.

















In all seriousness, I enjoy it. Graphics are great in Praetoria. Powers are second to none. Great people. Super groups.

also what is 'deluxe version' ?

Nil. My Niches continued along at their usual ridiculous and slow profit.

Phone makes selective quoting impossible so just pretend I'm quoting the part in Mega_Jamie's post about the patrons.
Of the stfs I have failed this week not one of them was due to the patrons. In every case our aggro holder (illusionist or tank) wasn't able to keep LR off of us. I understand exactly what I'm supposed to do but without a competent meat shield LR instagibs everyone.

Then we come to what was at one time one of my favorite sfs: rsf. I seem to have lost the knack for this as none of my fights have been the cakewalk I remember. On two of the succesful ones we had to resort to the good old globe pull.

I like the challenge but due to the pain in the butt of pug teams failing multiple times I've already reevaluated just which of my toons really needs a very rare.

I'm not sure if there was a point I was trying to make when I started this but whatever it was I've already forgotten...

That's the point of the player coined phrase. Its a sarcastic way of mocking the Weekly Strike Target. WTF indeed.

Hurray! thanks Diellan and DePr0grammer et al!

Why do you need to have a main character at all? I have 12(?) 50s and none of them are my main. Play whatever makes you happy when you want to play it.

Nitpick; there is no resistance softcap. That is-- there is no point at which more resistance has no effct before hitting the archetype's hardcap.

Dev1, " Hey Dev2 we forgot to close the Ski Chalet when we copied this code to live"
Dev2, " Oh well, let's tell them its a gift and leave it that way until the spring fling."
Dev1, " That's a great idea Dev2!"

StrykerX made a lot of good points about the basics so I'll expound on epics and alphas. Note I am doing this all from memory since I'm typing on my phone.

Alpha boosts and you:
Unlike set bonuses the alpha boosts do extend to your pets. As a bots traps you have a lot of choices here. If you feel that your bots aren't doing enough damage you should consider musculature.
If you are constantly running out of endurance try cardiac.
To get your traps up even faster you can go with spiritual. Note, several issues ago pets of all sorts were made immune to recharge so your bots won't get any benefit from spiritual's recharge boost.
Finally there is nerve which enhances accuracy. More interestingly one of its branches also enhances defense.
I'll admit I can't decide myself which alpha to use. My mm currently has both cardiac and spiritual crafted.

Epics
Mace mastery offers you an aoe immob and a smash/lethal/nrg shield.
Mu mastery offers an aoe immob with -kb and a resistance shield. Personally I use this.
>.< those are the only two I remember.

To save a new topic on the same basic thing but not quite;

What did you do during the downtime everyone else?
I took a short nap, read some manga, took another nap and read forums.
