  1. Ok guys, since the Rikti Raid was pretty popular...


    I think it might be a good thing to do this one again, see if we can actually fill 5 or even 6 full teams.

    Start gathering at Point du Hoc in RWZ at about 5:30pm PST/ 8:30pm EST.
    After the All VEAT Rikti Raid i'll do an open Rikti Raid.
  2. Can we please stay on topic, or else i'm forced to release .....



    Eochai !



    PS: my vote for the grown up Penelope Yin stands.
    I like the way she has a natural looking body, and not a 'Silicone Valley' bust.
  3. All grown up Penelope Yin.

  4. Ok, seems like i found the issue.

    Personal settings, settings which have been untouched for a long time, had TP prompt disabled, meaning it would nullify Null the Gull's setting.
    Nobody, including me, thought of checking this, till someone mentioned it right now.

    I like to apologize to all who's time i wasted looking for an answer and fix regarding this issue.

    However, it might be smart to take one of these options away to avoid future issues. If the personal settings cancel out Null the Gull's settings regarding TP, what's the point of having Null's settings in the 1st place?

  6. pick one of these monthly gifts:
    -Server Transfer Token
    -Server Slots
    -Rename token
    -Paragon Points

    Would make everyone happy.
    Myself, never used, and never will use these server transfer tokens.

    Guess you didn't read the thread i made regarding this.
    Please do, then come back with any ideas, cause i'm out of ideas, so is CS and they placed the 'bug' tag on this issue.

    Any and all TP's gave me the prompt.. until the previous patch.
    And it only affects one toon.. my main toon.

    Actually, there were some Council War Wolves present too, together with a few in CoT outfits and War Works. So to say only good guys were there is incorrect.
    Yes, i understand that all those outfits could be recreated by players, however, this was a non live event.
  9. Where is my TP bug fix?

    http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=284059

    It's bad enough that i got TP's from across the map with the Incarnate TP, while tanking Anti Matter in Keyes. Imagine the waste of time when i was leading Desdamona through the Underground Trial's bomb section and someone thought i'd be a good idea to TP me, making me backtrack and grab her again.

    C'mon, this NEEDS to get fixed ASAP!
  10. So, i'll guess i'll be the monkey wrench in the whole process and say i really hate this set so far.
    It'll add nothing to the.. ah, who the <bleep> am i kidding!










    THIS SET LOOKS AWESOME SO FAR!

    Best of all.. The interaction between creating and development so far has been great.
    This set is a big middle finger to all who say that the Devs don't listen to us and don't care about our feedback, cause this proves they DO!
  11. Two sold in WW's... 800mil and 999mill..

    Here's my 1st offer: 800mill.

    To answer the OP, if you're concerned with soloing go Crab. They're much more resilient and have the AoEs to deal with x8 content.
    That's one of the reasons i am planning a secondary pet build.

    My DPS is kinda low with 45% dam, but with pets DPS will be higher.

    The crab is real fun once you get all your pets. With all your leaderships and debuffs plus the nice holds from your disruptors it can solo very well indeed. However constantly recalling your pets can get annoying. (My only SoA 50)
    My Crab Nephila doesn't have pets, and i can still solo almost anything there is. Solo ITF was prob my biggest thing, together with the 4 man Keyes Reactor.

    Dual Leadership pools are always nice, esp on a team.
    I have a build planned however for a Perma 6 pet build, to see what that does.

    IMO, this could be worked around, since there are different sizes of NPC VEATs who do have glowing eyes. So why is it possible for them, yet not for the PC VEATs?
    One idea i have is to replace the FX node on the NP VEAT helmet to where the eyes are. This would also fix the Aura issue.
  15. Been a bit quiet on here, so here some updates regarding the last two events:

    Last Week: ITF
    Had two full teams. It was such a blast and pretty easy.


    Yesterday:
    Didn't really plan anything, thought a simple ITF since people liked it.. till someone mentioned a Rikti Raid.
    Since i did lead numerous Raids for the DT back in the day, i thought what the heck, let's do it.

    Outcome? over 30 VEATs, 4 full teams, lotta dead rikti and even more fun!

    No, the nicest way is to simply ignore it. There was no need to reply at all. Your little snarky reply was totally uncalled for, totally unjustified, and really, about 100 times more non-constructive than her post was.

    Look, I don't know what your beef with Golden Girl is. I thought her post was funny, and most of her posts are pretty good. It's certainly not the quantity or quality of her posts, not really, because there are a lot more here that have been a lot worse than she has. Whatever it is, you need to just let it go. At worst, she's not hurting anyone. At best, she is clever and amusing. All that aside though, if you're just plain determined to grind your ax on her, you need to figure out some other way to do it that doesn't make you come off sounding like a total richard.

    If she posts some kind of threat, or a personal attack, or something along those lines, I'd be 100% behind you. But this? Really? This is what you're all worked up about? Let it go, man.
    So wait up.. i can not comment on her, but everyone else can comment on me? Isn't that irony at it's best?

    I think you missed the part where i said i have her on ignore, but just had to open this post since it was the 1st reply to my OP.

    Yup, I remember creating them way back in 1999. Was getting a little bored with Ultima Online.
    Seems that the Time Manipulation powerset has some strange side effects.
    I see it happen on my own toons too, except the other way around.
    0 Days Offline, while i haven't been on that toon in weeks. Now i hear you think "Someone is logging into that toon." Well, no, i doubt it, unless they can reset the whole badge earned thing we get when we get a reward token, new account item unlock and new tailor parts available notifications.

    *Looks at join date* Nope, not new. :P And i have been playing a bit longer than that date.
    Sorry, was the nicest way to let her know i don't appreciate her filling her total post count with something (imo) so stupid that it made babies cry, while i'm opening this up for discussion to see if i'm the only one who has this bug.
    And Tony, i really don't care what you, or others think about my thoughts or actions regarding her, and i know i am not alone with my vision of her.
    You run one hell of a Titan Network, and i love using it. I care what you have to say and think about a lot of CoX related things, just not what you think about my vision of her.

    Actually, it was constructive.
    I used the "Report Button' a few times, seems like she is immune to it for some reason.
    Normally i have her on Ignore, and i'm glad i do. Occasionally i tend to open a message here and there, because at sporadic times there is something useful to be found. This time i just had to open it because it was a 1st response to me, and again something to fill her total post number with.

    So ummm. running with previous posts. Is anything in this thread considered constructive?
    Yes, very constructive.

    I'm finding out that i'm not the only one affected, and others finding out that it is not just them either.
    If there is a red name looking, he can see the other things that are also bugged.

    I say this is a win win situation for me, others who might have wondered and any red name stumbling across this thread.

    Isn't it funny whenever they try to fix things, a lot of other things get broken?

    And instead of gameplay/bugs section, i thought i'd post it here to have a discussion about it, since there is no CS or Tech support at that section to start with.. something that makes me wonder too.
