There is the possibility that the servers are down for so long because they're slamming in the booster along with i15... slim possibility, but one none-the-less.

I know lots of people will say avoid defense because of the eyeballs, but all you have to do is skip over those groups. My kat/sr does great in the Storm Palace.

[/ QUOTE ]One should also be wary of the Psi damage Wisps, since Psi is a common weakness

[/ QUOTE ]

Yikes, yeah. And they fly, which can be super annoying when trying to gather them.

Ha! Now I know your account name, stupid! XXXXX pretty unimaginative though, come on.

[/ QUOTE ]

It appears that you and at least one other poster actually thinks this is my account name. At first I thought that this reply was a weak attempt at flaming. On further consideration, it seems that I overestimated you. Let me break it down for you. I x'ed out my account name. I wouldn't post my account details on a public forum.

[/ QUOTE ]

I was having a little fun, waiting for the servers to come up. It's in no way flaming, and to me was such an obviously ridiculous thing to say that I didn't think there was any way that anyone could take it seriously. I apologize. It won't happen again.

Have a nice day.

Hopefully, you're being sarcastic. That's obviously not my account name.

[/ QUOTE ]It's actually the password, shhh.

Travel power suggestions already posted.

If you're thinking of hunting the shard it'll basically be the same requirements as any other good AoE character. Spines is the old standby.

This ties in to something I've been noticing on my /SR. I don't faceplant very often, but when I do it's not the slow draining of HP down to zero. No, it's the migrating goose hit by the 747. The little baby meets the eighteen wheeler. Flak jacket vs. H-bomb. Try evading that Dodgy McDodgypants.

I just don't remember any specific instances where any reasonably attainable regen would help me.

I've gotten some spectacularly polite requests for this during the past few weeks. They have punctuation, capitalization, and even say please. Of course, it's a bind. But if I'm soloing outside or playing on the market or just standing in one of my favorite spots talking to myself as seems so common lately... I have no problem filling for people.

There have been numerous occasions where I was trying to test the limits on a scrapper whether with a normal mission or soloing a TF and it's been quite difficult to find people to help get things rolling. I generally don't farm and my tells are impeccably polite. Filling gets a bad reputation, the practice isn't naughty in and of itself.

Tagging and import/export support?

Does this game have anything that requires such things?

Just wondering... because we've got a 5+ year old community right here with everything that this could offer, already.

[/ QUOTE ]

Forums not controlled by ncsoft are a distinct plus.

[/ QUOTE ]

For people who can't abide by simple common-sense rules and for whom the anarchy and, thus, near-uselessness of Usenet was a big plus for them, then, yeah, a non-official forum is a great idea.

Like the one at badge-hunter.
Or the various Titan forums.
Or the many 'guild portal' forums.
Or the many MMO fan-site forums.

Choclate Bacon saunters into the room wearing a deep mahogany smoking jacket and pleather chaps. His eyes twinkle with a merriment born of a night spent twirling on his head, or someone else head, or from dancing yes dancing like a ballerina sans tutu on some toy skyscraper to an audience of dolls. He hops athletically, olympically, masterfully up onto the countertop and lights a cigar while sipping at a snifter of drano.

"Morning chums, bloody good day eh? Bloody good if I do say so myself! Guffaw! Anyone up for billiards!?"

Allow me to apologize. I understand that the initial lines in my first post may have sounded critical to yours. I assure you that they were not. I used your words as a jumping off point into absurdity without asking your permission. in the future I will request permission in writing, or better yet, fabricate a post to use as a diving board.

I assumed that as my post went on into its second, third, and fourth lines that it would have been apparent that my intent was not to criticize you or anyone but myself and the basic absurdity of the forums. I assumed wrong. I'm sorry. There really is no forgiving my transgressions, as the one just witnessed is the proverbial tip of the floating poop mountain one may see when travelling down a scenic river on an innertube as a child, wondering where the current will take them and daydreaming innocent things like ponies, icecream, rubber sheets, mother's warm embrace, the sound of glass breaking that one time when your BB gun misfired and you didn't mean to shoot that window out and it was so hot and that idiot deserved to have his eye exploded... A-and amidst the drifting it looms! An Excremental Everest! A Defecatorious Doom! Sliding down upon you like puberty, like adulthood, like marriage! Yes, a putrid marriage of language and remorse!

Ahem.

Oh, I love the warmth in this thread.

I do have to say that Eisregen has a point here, though. You can't ask people not to partake of certain privileges that you do, particularly if they're granted on a relatively equal basis.

[/ QUOTE ]

Well you can't ask people to not ask people not to partake of certain privileges, so neener neener neener!

Oh wait... I guess that means I can't tell people that they can't ask people to not ask people not to partake of certain privileges, neener neener...

But can I tell myself that I can't tell people that they can't ask people to not ask people not to partake of certain privileges, neener...

Fine! I'm telling myself, and I mean it, self! You can't tell yourself that You can... can't tell myself that I can't tell people to tell themselves that they can't ask people to not ask people not to partake of certain privileges, neener.

So shut up you sorry excuse for a fatty acne inducing salt ridden no good yellow bellied pork product!

That'll show me.

That's interesting, I'll have to mess around some with my shieldl characters. Does the shield stay out after/during the costume change?

I'm sorry, but what was the point of this thread?

Tanks don't need taunt. They have gauntlet, taunt is a waste of a power pick unless you are going to use it as a holder for IOs...

[/ QUOTE ]

That may or may not be true but it doesn't matter because Tanks are an irrelevant AT that no one plays anyway.

i don't see how that clue contradicted itself in its own text

it seems like factors outside the clue were in contradiction to it but that's not the same as being self-contradictory

[/ QUOTE ]

Do you randomly pick forum posts to contradict people, or is there some system that you use?

[ QUOTE ]
I know. I posted an entire paragraph . Then I expected the Playskool Cartel to pay attention long enough to read a paragraph. What was I thinking?

[/ QUOTE ]

I was kind of thinking the same thing. I've seen some walls of text on these forums in the past few years and the OP barely qualifies. I think some of you are on hair triggers here.

[ QUOTE ]

seriously, can we stop with the labeling and at least try to be civil?
Even with my disquiet about the past couple of weeks, I am looking forewards to both the new tf's and going rogue.

Why, so you can find new exploits to exploit, Mr. Exploiter!?

[ QUOTE ]
I'm a new player so I know little about pvp. Is it balanced?

[/ QUOTE ]

The most important thing to keep in mind as you read these responses is that this game has been around for five years. That is more than enough time for people to get a little too attached to their ways of playing and how their characters work.

Then the game changes, for whatever reason. A lot of people roll with it and adapt. Some people decide they don't like the changes and leave(or stop PvPing, in this case), which is understandable. The third group stays on and takes every opportunity to express their bitterness about the past.

Ignore the third group, or at least take their tirades with a grain of salt.

To answer the question:

I don't know if it's balanced. But on the occasions that I wander in to a zone, I have fun. There's certainly nothing in PvE that makes my heart pound like that.

Many good suggestions so far...

When you click a glowie stealth supresses. Can we make hostages clickable with a similar effect?

Please don't axe this feature, there's gotta be a way.
