With a good mix of defence and high resistance numbers though they wont be needing a heal that often.
    Won't Cold slow down their fury generation because enemies aren't attacking as much? And I'm sure Brutes have a fair few defense-boosting secondaries...

    They still seem to work in Mayhems. Either that, or I steamrolled over a very surprised Luminary impersonator the other day.

    xxx_NA?

    Deep-fried mars bars could probably used as a pretty effective brainwashing tool...

    I was under the impression that it operated on a 'two out of three' system of Name, Bio, Costume - if two of these are breaching the EULA then that dude's getting genericed.

As such, we should couple with authorized/approved by NC Soft/Paragon Studios other great campaigns, such as breast cancer awareness (i.e., "City of Heroes supports the Breast Cancer Foundation", etc.). We can be heroic AND supportive, and at their events, we'd be great for handing out free trial game disks, flyers with our game info and logos on it,etc. HIT THE HEROIC THEME and ADVERTISE WITH IT!
    So if we advertise City of Heroes by doing good things, how do we advertise City of Villains? Will we be seeing Posi robbing a bank sometime soon?
  7. What, no Sonic love? Paired with a Brute you'll both chew through enemies like a very hungry knife through soft, tasty butter.
  8. I'd be up for it, I'd like to try and get Buck embroiled in a proper plot for once.
  9. See, I never played as one, but I always figured that Fire/ was the highest damage set 'trollers got, and /Kin boosted that damage even more.

One of the brutes can get your PBAoE debuff toggle, making everything in melee range that much easier to kill. And you can debuff resistance on hard targets like AVs or GMs with your gotta take it tier 1 power.

    Basically a win/win for everyone.
    I was going to suggest this. /Sonic works great with brutes, what with the debuff toggle being ally-melee range, and you'll literally roll over 95% of enemies in the game. The other 5% will eat -res debuffs out the wazoo and then get rolled over.

There is a fee for using PayPal, but it's so small that when I've already got a currency exchange factored in, I don't even notice if it's paid by the purchaser (you) or the seller (NCSoft).

    Just one more option on the table for you.

    Oh.... i can haz ur stufz? i m way koolr den graystar iz!
    No paypal, I just brought a month to test out my new card. Thanks for the advice though
  12. Uhh... actually, I think it's a generic 'finishing shot' animation? It's not like Vincent's is particularly unique or creative.

    Agreeing with this
  13. I managed to go from 2 positive rep to 1 negative in the one week I was back on the forums, somehow

    So I disabled it, because I know some people on these forums care entirely too much about some arbitrary pixels on a screen and would devalue my opinion solely because of it

    FYI, I'm downloading the patch from the test server at a blistering pace of 19 k/sec WOW!
    Jesus christ. Are you running on a 56k modem or what?
  16. I believe you have to wait for the 14 day period to run out, yes.

    Yep, you basically just drop that code onto your existing one and it'll upgrade. Nifty, isn't it?
  18. Hi. I brought Superbooster III: Superscience earlier today, and applied the code to my existing account, but when I log into the game none of the new costume pieces, emotes, supertailor etc show up. Has anyone else had a problem with receiving their packs, and is this just a delay or will I end up needing to repurchase?

    The account history on PlayNC shows that I've paid for the perk and it's been applied, and I've sent off a ticket to support, but I was just wondering if anyone else had had this problem? Also, does anyone know about how long NCSoft support normally takes to reply to these things?

    Thanks in advance
  19. Cool! Thanks for the quick answer, +rep
  20. Basically, I just purchased a month of time for CoX. I don't want the payment to recur - if I immediately cancel the subscription, can I still play CoX and post on the forums? The message it gives me is a bit misleading. Thanks in advance!

    This is what I was thinking. What does Poison offer that isn't in any of the other sets for a Corruptor or Defender?
  22. Either I:

    1) Think 'Hey, that combination of powersets would be pretty awesome!', for example Elec/Shield for the double teleport goodness. Mostly these toons get played to a lowish level then I can't be arsed grinding up to the level where things get good
    or
    2) At some point while I'm pottering around in my life I'll come up with a really cool idea for a character. So then I think about it all day until I can get to CoH and make it, using the powersets which seem most suitable

  24. AR/Sonic Corruptor. According to your list you don't have either of these powersets, or indeed a corr at all, so it might be a fresh experience for you
  25. If you want screenshots without HUD, just type in /screenshot.
