    While I like the idea of the tradable time as above, I fail to see how the crafting cost of 100 mill is an issue when you need 88 shards...

  3. I have the same issue, and just deal with it. A fix WOULD be good.
  4. You also get it from the Posi TF

    I believe becase new content at lower levels would give the lower level toons an advantage over the existing high level toons... or something like that.

    Aarrrrggg, so we'll be getting bland recycled overmarketed hype for these trials then?

    I will resist any effor to use said prefix on something actually good.

They'd be going from 4 servers to 15, and they'd be gaining 132 character slots. So if that were to happen to me, I'd find the annoyance of possibly having to rename my global/account names a minor irritation that would go away after I chose a new name.

    I'm sorry that my opinion that the group that stands to gain the most should be the one to put up with the name changing offended anyone.
    I would say it should be done the same as the forum merge was. Append EU/NA to the end of the globals.

    I don't think you can do this Donna, as you have an EU acc. But maybe a US player CAN send you an invite.

I happen to have all the slash commands binded to my numpad so I don't have to manually or otherwise type out the commands every time I use them or even use the 3 commands MMs come with that fill up power slots. It doesn't make one bit of difference what version of the command you use, they all do the same thing.POP
    LOL, I love the attitude. Have you read any of the replies you've got? The command IS different and does work.

    It has a 4 minute uptime, and a 15 minute base recharge. I don't have the formula handy, but I think the disparity between uptime and recharge makes it impossible to perma it, even at recharge cap.
    According to the Wiki, the recharge cap is 400% giving a 1/5 recharge time. This would result in a 3min recharge on the power.
  11. James, If you are on the EU servers* feel free to look me up in game on my global @Dave N Smith if you have any queries. If you joined Union server (you can use any and all, so it's not a one time choice) then you'll want to join Sal's badgehunters and Union Chat to see what everyone is doing.

    *There are 2 server lists, European Union servers and North American servers. The list you get depends on the game version you bought, which is usually dependent on where you live.

    Very Rare AS

    There are 8, 2 for each type, and the value of the benifits differ between the 2.

    ty for reminding me but the question still remains of how do any of us obtain 2 rares when each time we created one to even get to our first lvl shift we lost the previous.

    noone has yet explained that one to me.
    i took the dmg alpha one err muscular or whatever i think its called back when alphas came out.

    clearly we all start off from the initial one. I noticed the moment i had enough shards to go up and craft whichever one i wanted that the first one was no longer there but i never paid it any attention figuring that it was just upgraded to whichever one i chose.

    but now that i need to rares the question remains how do i have 2 when each time i craft to another the other vanishes?

    it also seems i will pretty much have to somehow have them all just to get to the top which is also baffling to me cause if that was the case then... how is that even possible when they keep vanishing when you make the next upgrade? boy i never thought i'd get confused by this by a simple question from a friend


    since before he asked i was pretty confident that i knew how it worked and i personally didn't make a mistake but after that as you can see my confidence just dropped completely ^_^;;
    Crafting an upper tier uses one of the tier below. To craft a second rare you have to craft another common, then an uncommon.

    I'd say 10% of my animations fail to play on my stone/elec tank. Stuff still dies, I'm ok with that.

    Hmm, in fairness, I haven't run any content on a level shifted toon, or not enough to notice missing shards.

    Did you unlock your alpha slot? I ran my new level 50 tank through 3 TF's, including the STF for the notice, and was able to make my tier 3 boost. Probably about 35 shards dropped over the course of the weekend.

    Also, will level shift be allowed in Zonal where you are auto exemped?
    I don't know how the Exemping works in PvP but I would guess if you exemp lower than 45 it won't. I was running Ouro missions at 45 last night and the shift DID apply. Was a nice bonus.

    They are different groups, more powers etc, and, assuming you are meeting them in the Apex and Tin Mage TF's, +4 to you. Of course they are harder.

    I can see why the cavern isn't too popular. It takes longer to set up than to run. We did it in 11 mins on the weekend.

No-one says a word, no-one cares about a word that is said, no-one wants to acknowledge that there are human beings behind the characters on screen. On the subject of bolded MMO, this is not better than solo play in any way. It IS solo play in everything but game mechanics.
    For me, I tend to be chattier or not depending on the toon I'm playing. My tank taxes me to play. I enjoy the challenge, but have to concentrate more, so I tend to be less chatty. On my blaster, however, I am more able to chat as I don't have to worry about everyone else. But it also does depend on the people I'm teaming with. I don't like chatting to myself.

    I don't agree with this. I've done the STF with a variety of teams and done the final 2 missions with only 6 people after our Emp and his partner lost their internet connection. It's tough, sure, but it's not THAT much harder than other content in the game. Whats really required is teamwork.
