Aspect GM in Cap yesterday (EU Defiant Server Redside) fell through the map just north of the midnighters club, near the glowing rune.
Leaving him about 72ft away and invulnerable due to being out of sight.
We just had to watch the timer count down to zero. -
I just wish...
- ToT was working.
- That the banners had more time to allow for player organisation. (As was requested during testing.)

Quote:Err SSK changes to the mission holders level in a mission no matter the out of mission leaders level.I really hope not, since that is the 40-45 Warshade AT arc. If that is the case, his minimum spawning level needs to be looked at, though I doubt that will happen.
Nope. The team leader was level 30. All those of us who were SSKed were 29, making that AV much more of an "ouch".
In which case 29+2+2+2=35 (3 times your +2 setting, OUCH) -
'Suggestions and Ideas' are in the 'For Fun!' section here:
http://boards.cityofheroes.com/forumdisplay.php?f=603
As for your suggestion, I would recommend waiting until the Blue, Grey, Red issue which will be caused by GR has settled... -
The OP isn't talking about changing that characters AT,
but about changing their Primary and/or Secondary powersets...
Things like a Spines/SR Scrapper becoming a Claws/Regen Scrapper.
Which would also be useful for power proliferation changes, to allow players with a then level 50 character a chance to change to any powersets of that characters AT. (Brute -> Brute)
Even if the drop was to around level 10/20 ish rather than level 1, and that capes, auras and costume slots already unlocked (level 20, 30 and 40 missions) remained unlocked.
Additionally it would be nice to keep the 'Call' options for contacts that have already given you missions to that level, even if their mission progress bar was reset.
This could work by having any known contacts outside your level range listed on the inactive list as now, but also including known contacts you are below the level for.
With my suggested adjustments above...
I'd be happy to say... /Signed -

Suggested them as with GR we should be able to have heroside MM's
PPD Swat MM with PPD Bot Pets
IIRC the pets still need to show if they are upgraded for PvP/Co-op, the Assault Bot for example has a (tacky) missile launcher showing, most large bots have missiles, so for non custom top upgrade have the bot's missile bay stay open, or similar. -
Quote:Was the lvl 30 team actually playing as lvl 31?My experiences this weekend thus far:
Level 40 Warshade arc mission set at +1 spawned a level 43 Nosferatu.
Level 45 team running a Founders Falls Safeguard set at +3 spawned a level 51 Barracuda
Level 30 team running the Shaper arc set at +2 spawned a level 35 Barracuda
EBs don't seem to be affected. PCWK was level appropriate as an EB when I ran the Tina Mac mission for him.
As I notice with any setting over +1 it's doubling the +level before adding it to the teams level for the AV.
45+(3x2)=51 and 31+(2x2)=35 thats 45+3+3 and 31+2+2 for those with poorer maths.
__________________
IMO the EB's and AV's need a -1 +0 +1 option, -1 AV only available at +0 Level and above.
This would give the level 45 team on +3 facing a fixed Barracuda AV (48) a lvl 47 thru 49 AV depending on the above setting.
This would also help players who have difficulty with EB's and AV's without forcing them to lower the levels of the rest of the mission mobs just to survive and defeat a single EB/AV. -
Personal opinion:
I prefer calling them extended rather than epics, because imo
H/V Extended AT's suits them better than H/V Epic AT's.
And the H/V E AT's are imo an extention of the existing AT's.
(Widows for example are Claws+Spines, Claw and Dart attacks with Lethal+Poison DMG.)
I say this as all AT's start at level 1 (2 after the tutorial) and progress to level 50, following player selected missions and arc's.
__________________
Additionally, I feel that the Epics are the non-AT standard powers in the APP/PPP's.
Yes I know Kheldians don't directly get these, but they have more standard top end powers, which is where their epicness comes from.
If for example there was a APP or two, linked to Kheldian powers, this imo would give standard (Hero) AT's a feeling of epicness.
(A Nicti PPP for non VEAT Villain AT's) -
Medic could have a Rez...
As long as it only targeted your Henchmen and Teammates.
Cimerorans have Surgeons, Vahzlok have Mortificators, Crey have...
Give the medic no melee powers and a stay in mm bg mode (follow defensive) effect.
(I say effect as it would avoid the take damage when the mm does of the true bg mode.) -
FYI, The default install for CoH (Win XP) is "C:\Program Files\City of Heroes"
That with the bypass is...
EU
"C:\Program Files\City of Heroes\CohUpdater.EU.exe -project eucoh"
USA
"C:\Program Files\City of Heroes\CohUpdater.exe -project coh"
ATTENTION
This bypasses the updater so be advised that any updates will not be installed and may make your game unstable!!! -
Quote:You need to do Newspaper and Broker - Bank Mahem missions Redside to unlock more contacts./Unsigned
Lets not make Radio/Newspaper missions more convenient compared to the normal arcs. I rather see steps taken to promote us to play normal arcs instead.
I don't mind Radio listings being limited Blueside as you get more contacts from your previous contacts, but Redside it's not that common and so you have to do Newspaper missions to get new arcs.
I agree to this turn the page option for the Redside Newspaper mission selection.
I disagree with it regarding Blueside Radio missions. (Not required)
As for Side By Side version option in GR, I have no idea... Yet. -
Quote:Gambling would be out, as a PG 13 game...This. You could make it horrendously expensive and I think it would still work. Very good inf sink, even if horribly overpriced.
In-game gambling would be incredible, as well.
The Devs could make 1 month of game time cost 6 billion inf tho...
3x 2 billion inf inspirations (Replacing the WW/BM non existant insps)
Combining to make a game time insp.
Which when used could unlock the 'Limit Breaker' badge and costume piece an 'I beat the inf' cap. -
We could ask the devs nicely to incorporate the Vidiotmaps updates as the official maps?
-
Peacebringers should get light and Warshades dark tinting.
As for their Nova and Dwarf forms...
Fire Imps are colourable on a per player basis, basically the summon power passes the selected colours to the Imps as they summon.
Nova and Dwarf powers are replacement character summons, but technically they should be able to get the colour information from the toggled form power.
(Devs: As such this should also fix/allow Granite customisation.) -
Known bug along with the SSK auto-defeat of pets when leaving a team mission.
Quickest method to get them back under your control is to re-zone, alternatively getting out of range so they respawn nearer to you also works.
Note: Sometimes when zoning if they are not 'Active' pets, when you get them back they may have lost the upgrades...
Hope this helps. -

- Mercs: Costume colours and powers.
- Necro: Zombie skin, armor, etc and powers.
- Ninja: Costume colors and powers.
- Thugs: Costume colours and powers.
Additionally alternate non customisable pets would be good too:- Bots: PPD Assault, PPD Guardian, PPD Enforcer
Various Malta Titans... Including the Zeus
Vanguard Mech's, etc. - Mercs: Malta, Longbow, etc.
- Necro: CoT/Ghosts etc.
- Ninja: KoA, etc.

Quote:Little tip try using 'alive'1) Where's that Nictus?
Use this one to automatically select quantums, voids and cysts with your tab key without having to think about it:
/bind tab "target_custom_next quantum$$target_custom_next void$$target_custom_next cyst$$target_enemy_next"
A word of warning: if there is a quantum, void or a cyst in a spawn, this bind will only select said quantum, void or cyst - even if they're dead - until the body disappears, so once you kill the nictus you'll be forced to either hit a power to select another enemy or manually select them with the mouse.
/bind tab "target_custom_next alive quantum$$target_custom_next alive void$$target_custom_next alive cyst$$target_enemy_next"
For reference thats 125 characters and stating 'alive' should no longer target defeated pre-fade mobs.
Oh and for WS teleporting...
/bind shift+lbutton "powexec_name shadow step$$powexec_name black dwarf step"
This should activate whichever power is available for teleporting at that time...
Human: Shadow Step
Dwarf: Black Dwarf Step
Nova: N/A
Hope this helps my fellow players with Khelds...
(I currently have 2 pb and 1 ws.) -

Query support, but it may be something to do with the new AE anti-farming measures.
They stopped allies being full bubblers, and it may be similar with MM allies.
Maximum MM allies with pets at AV level vs mission AV's would be an easy farm... even for a squishy!
I hope support changes this to affect >1 MM allies, leaving the first MM ally free to use pets. -
Thank you very much Psygon.
And yes I think it's cute too. -
Major Store Unused and Unassigned Slots Vanishing, Prior to i16 allocated but unused slots were available when the store was down, dunno what's happened since... Oh there goes two of the EU Servers.
