    Pocket D, of course.

    I never used it as I, well, hardly ever team -- does Assemble the Team work across zones?
    No, and Pocket D won't work if you're level 1 - you have to level up to level 2 at the trainer to use it.

    ...Actually, for some Unemployment would net them MORE money than the pay-cut.

    From Atari 2600, NES, Sega Genesis, Playstation, Playstation3 and games on the PC... Some of us don't find the "age of the game" to be a problem.
    Some of us like playing those games.
    Nostalgia called. He wants to track down a Genesis game you DIDN'T play 20 years ago and see how well that argument goes - my original Sega Genesis games were stolen, and the XBLA versions did NOT fit the bill (lost like 20 lives on that damn final boss - I blame the controller).

    Depends on one's definition, since #3 Fills Zettai Ryouiki quite nicely.

  7. I'm gonna do it wrong - every time I entered the Gaspee (Founders Falls) I was reminded of this. It also helps that that area is an older style of architecture.

    SSA 1.7, mission... 2 or 3 I believe. You don't actually get to the island, you have to enter the highest ship and clear it out.

    Going over the soft-cap isn't meaningless when your DDR is only 52%.
  10. Wait I thought the Empire was going to clone the Emperor and bring him back that way?

    SPEDIT: Also, [http://www.leasticoulddo.com/comic/20121105]this[/url]. It's linked to the front page, but it'll be good for a week or two.

    EDIT: Link has been fixed for the start of the parodies.

    Eh honestly propel and Dimension Shift were still wasted picks for me. Wormhole and Lift were nice though.

    1. Looking back, considering everything, which was your favorite archetype in the game?


    Bruuuuutes.

    2. In possible contrast, when it comes to your favorite character, what kind was it? List AT and the two main sets.


    Two of my big 14 (characters who reached 50 or had 100+ hours of play) broke 1000 hours:

    Dragos Bahtiam - Fire/Ice Blaster - 1010 hours (first ever character)
    Deamus the Fallen - Dark Melee/Energy Aura Brute - 1108 hours (first serious Villain)

    If the game had gone longer my TW/Elec would've galloped up the time played as well.

    3. What AT did you evolve to enjoy over the years that you disliked initially?


    Hmm. This one's hard to qualify, but I guess my Grav/Psi Dominator would probably be the best fit. He IS third in total time played (319 hours).

    ...The Brad Pitt one looks more entertaining. Intriguing? The last "Intriguing" movie I paid to see in theaters was Inception.

    ...My EA's 52% DDR would disagree with that.

    If I still played him. Or the game at all.

That they sold for a pretty high amount relative to the other Common IOs recipes and especially compared to Range SOs which nicely made up for how frequently I got Range SOs as drops. The multi-millions I made from them funded many of my characters.

    However, I had to move on when someone started buying up the level 50 Range IO recipes for 80K Inf each for several years. Was that you? I just couldn't understand the reasoning for the 80K buy price because the sell price at the store for a level 50 Range IO is around 92K Inf. I could make more buying the level 45s along with no competition. I even knew when this buyer was on vacation and couldn't play because there would be a brief lull of a few days every so often when the price would drop to around 50K Inf, only to suddenly return to 80K Inf again with no price creep.
    This was how I made my first 100M. Made a cheatsheet for all the most common lvl 50 common recipes:

    Accuracy - 113,650
    Damage - 116,100
    Defense - 81,275
    End Red - 107,975
    Healing - 116,100
    Range - 92,875
    Recharge - 107,975
    Sleep - 84,750
    Stun - 88,225

    As long as I bid under that value, it was guaranteed to make money as long as they filled. After I started crafting+Flipping once I hit 150M I only did this on alts and only for Range and Stun (Range would be bid at 62,875, Stun at 38,225). Nice way to make money if you have plenty of time but less capital at the outset of your career.

    I think the grand lanista ones will work as well.

    Pre-combined Zeus Titans DO count, so you can just sweep in PI or Radio missions for them.

    Pretty sure if they're different levels it won't work right, and I don't bother unless they're from the same group. My first blaster did it years ago and my brute did in Warburg in i6 (all Malta are level 41 there).

NY Times, WSJ, Village Voice, Time and the NY Post didn't like it. Not the raves Cars had, but I find those raves to be utterly inexplicable.
    Pretty sure he's spot on, actually.

    Also YES on Han Solo in Kingdom Hearts 3.
  23. Do you have both the [Steam Jump] and [Jump Pack] powers? If so, and assuming you have even a smidgen of recharge enhancement you can maintain perma-Jump Pack (turn on jump pack, then turn on steam jump, when the 30s duration of Jump Pack expires, steam jump turns off instead of jump pack - as long as steam jump recharges in under 30 seconds you can turn it on and start the process over).

    If so, then you can hit 87.95MPH with Afterburner with a single level 50 flight enhancement in Fly, leaving afterburner free for a LoTG. I WOULD consider using one or more lvl 50 Flight IOs in Hover, unless you plan on leaving jump pack on in combat (its doable but taxing attention wise).
  24. I say vote Raimi for Zombie Apocalypse. But Whedon works too.
