  1. Yep, they took it down on the 19th cuz it was a free bonus and they haven't repriced it. I bought Titan weps yesterday and tried to get it, but nope

    I studied English as a foreign language. I never had the luxury of "not knowing" what a word means, because if I didn't know what a word meant, I didn't use it. And if I used a word and someone told me I was using it wrong, I picked up a dictionary and looked it up.

    "Language evolves" is not an excuse I've ever been willing to accept when the bulk of the times it's been used has been as an excuse for practical ignorance.
    ...You used peruse incorrectly.

    Specifically, peruse means to go over something with great effort. You peruse a book you want to know by heart.

    The Underground

    Also, nice little tip. Don't let people bring Rebirth...a single one can take hami from 2% back to 100 on regen :/
  4. I did. I am (was) trying to do the arc through ouro after all that. I've completed ALL of the VEAT arcs, which means he won't introduce me to operative Kuzmin.

    I just got a friend to start the arc for me through ouro.
  5. So far, it seems like I am not going to be able to do the new arcs in Mercy in Mercy.

    I try to ouro Operative Kuzmin's arc, and it tells me to talk to Alan desslock, my first VEAT contact and the arcs (Excluding Dr. Graves' arc, which was awesome) are all dependent on doing that one first.

    Saying Hello

    Welcome! Always nice to have some new blood. My personal tip? Task forces. They're a great way to meet new people. The Death from below trial is the same

    I feel...cheated

    I'm glad some people agree with me.

    It's not that massive a deal. I wouldn't have bought the bundle if I knew I wouldn't get the auras, but what am I gonna do, demand a refund?

    I feel...cheated

    I went into the store to buy the Cyborg pack. As everyone knows, it doesn't say what exactly is part of the bundle, so I assumed it was the same as the Super boooster, excluding the powers.

    I was wrong.

    Turns out, after buying the cyborg bundle for 400 points, turns out I don't get the auras with it! What the crap?

    Am I wrong? I this a bug, or bait and switch?
  9. Well, looking back through the forum, turns out people have been being granted the badge for the bug before, but in any case, I just completed it again (Finally got the badge) so yay!

    And I had been using a targetting macro the entire time
  10. Well, the test server updated with CoH freedom, but it's not letting me in, citing database issues...
  11. GM response was that "You didn't get the badge, so you didn't complete the conditions"

    They also said that if you talk to an injured PPD officer more than once it screws up the counter. /rage

    I am a bit frustrated with the mission, but imma do this til I get the badge
  12. well, I petitioned, not that I think it'll do much good :/

    It's happened to me twice now, and the wiki says that if I get all the ppd out the mish should complete.

    Yep, with 10 seconds to spare. Got the mission complete splash, exited, and nothing

    Edit: Still doing the mish, have the clue that says "Harken saved" or whatever
  14. I completed the mission that it involves, I got every PPD out, it even was gone from my objective menu. Why didn't I get the badge, did I do something wrong? Should I report it?
  15. Wouldn't that be up to the lady?

    Just because we're villains doesn't mean we need to be uncivilized. Pish posh.

    edit: also, I used the Promethean badge as the condition because before you do that he's fighting you, but after, he gives up and serves you willingly.
  16. Why would you feel dirty?

    Are you saying I am smelly?
  17. I believe completing the Mortimer Kal SF should give you a personal base item to place.

    Fiona Kal.

    Bear with me. You kidnapped her and the Souvenir explicitly states you're keeping her in your lair. Why not make her something like a mini-mission computer that gives you something like paper mishes, or maybe have her tell you the WST as part of her training as a villain, or maybe just have her say witty things. Something!
  18. First question...

    What do you think happened to that guy's head when Cole hit him with the "Full force" of his fist?

    Second Question...

    Why can out characters not be mentioned in lore more! (I am totally Kal's master, and have the souvenir to prove it)

    Third...

    When...live...must have!

    CoH free trials

    I know they retired them because of freedom coming, but I have friends who I want to join the game due to freedom (and are willing), but that 1.99 CoH sale ended, so I am kinda SoL

    Do you think they should reinstate the trials (or the sale) until the game actually goes to freedom, or at least until they have a definitive date?
  20. Hmm, I think I could work with that one, tweak it a bit and suit my purposes. Thank you very much
  21. that's quite true, and my lack of being softcapped has actually had me considering getting Nerve incarnate to get that massive def boost (t2 moves me like to 60% across the board), but doing that gives up my musculature...

    Addendum: Of course, I am kinda considering just doubling up on maneuvers.
  22. Hi, everyone. Was hoping to get a critique of my build.

    I am NOT experienced with this kinda thing, but was given some random suggestions (Like making sure to boost defense and recharge, to skip placate, and a few other things)

    Come i21 I'll be dropping Super jump, and maybe Super speed, depending on what I want to do with travel powers. Any other suggestions?

    (I have a bit over a billion to work with as my budget, plus anything I'd sell from changes here)

    Please and thanks for the help

    Addendum: I've never had trouble with this build, but it's hard to not want to be better.

    Powers gone!

    I've had a lot of similar problems. People promoting me in the league, then having their window change but not mine, keeping me from having the powers. I've had my incarnate stuff disappear, had one bug that was really weird, locked me in a sit position and wouldn't let me move until someone teleported me (I would jump up and down in place).

    All of these were in the early days of the BAF trial though, and always happened during escapee (except the league thing, which happened a few days ago)

    News from PAX

    Yes, but you can turn astrals into threads for other characters. It'd be some...extreme grinding, but you could theoretically do it using more than one character
  25. Hmm...Hadn't heard about that...
