    Now how would martial arts stop an earthquake?

    Oh look the volcano is erupting! Dont worry we'll kick it!

    If theres one thing i learnt, its never to kick a volcano . . . .
  6. Currently got a level 27 elec/fire scrapper so i can only mention about elec melee [though fire armour and elec are very similar low levels].

    Up until roughly level 20/22 my scrapper was VERY weak and i had to constantly rely on inspirations. However once you start slotting your attacks and get the ones like chain induction and the other "hit multiple foes" attacks, then you do become a killing machine Its just a late bloomer of the scrapper sets thats all
  7. There are ghosts in these machines
  8. Breaking news! We have confirmation that our hero Statesman has just defeated our nemesis, Lord Recluse! This is a momentous occasion for our small planet and a time of peace is almost at hand! Rejoice paragon city, for a new era is almost upon us!

    Earlier today, during one of my daydream sessions while walking home from work [i daydream a lot while walking, makes it go quicker], i was thinking about what would happen to the heroes of the world if we finally did win the battle against evil or defeated their leader?

    In our case, would paragon city need heroes if her main enemies of Lord Recluse, Nemesis, Rularuu etc were all defeated? Would the PPD/Longbow be able to curb the minions of the enemy groups without superhero help?

    So the question i put to you is this, after defeating all obstacles in your path [ones that are a threat to your power], what would your character do? Would you go around street sweeping until all evil is finally vanquished? Would you go into secret training preparing yourself for the moment when the world needs you one more time? Would you simply go back to a normal life and let the PPD "clean up" the smallfry?

    But then the question arrises, if you have defeated evil . . . are you still needed/wanted?

    Anyway, I guess I don't really want to know and the above are rethorical questions, sorry, not going to derail this thread further.

    Yes your correct, actually thinking about it my response was actually . . . . . whats the word? Rubbish?

    I take back my idea

    Well, NCSoft would probably make some insta cash when everyone started moving chars to Freedom/Virtue leaving EU servers even emptier, but besides that, can't see any other benefit.

    Transfer them over and then give a free character transfer for every single character you got on your account. Which would result in being able to slowly combine the servers while they figure out how to transfer over things such as supergroups.
  13. *grumbles* If one of you US server players mention how much fun your having in your double xp weekend, we EU players will invade your servers!

    Question: Would it be deemed offensive if a whole bunch of EU players got trial accounts and hosted an "invasion" style event on your servers?
  14. My results so far.

    Settings:

    Level = +0
    Number of players it thinks i am = 2
    Bosses = Yes

    Findings:

    On certain missions in story arcs i have noticed that roughly half the maps mobs consist of 1 boss + 1 minion, which correct me if im wrong isnt WAI. Though it is a welcome change and i do personally like it like that.

    However the above i have only noticed on story arcs, on radio missions/pvp instant missions the spawn size/rates are exactly how you describe them Sam. With them usually consisting of 2 lieuts + 1 minion [with my difficulty settings] thrown in with the occasional 4 minions + 1 lieut mob.

    Details Wanted?:

    I remember which missions/arcs the constant streams of bosses are so if wanted i can play them again via ouroboros and see if the results are constant.
  15. Illusion is simply awesome! My favourite set for a controller and what fool doesnt like phantom army? It adds a ton of damage to the overall team and is a great way of mitigating damage if you get a bit over your head.

    Quote:
    i dont team with illusion, but you can stay through the mish before i kick you.

    Thats nice of him . . . . . giving a pre warning to the kicking? Even if i had been lft ALL day and this was the first team i had been invited to, i wouldve just left automatically. Sure hes the leader and in theory gets to decide what happens, but if he has restrictions on team members then he should be the ones sending tells asking for your powers before inviting.

    Tenner says you would have been a better tank than the tank himself.

    The term epic thread gets thrown around this forum WAY too much I can see 5 threads on the first page with people saying "epic thread".

    I ask because I get quite a lot of (usually new-ish) players who send me random tells asking to join my SG. The SGs I'm in both hero and villain side are pretty much closed-door; it's a bunch of friends, and new people only really get recruited if they're friends of members, or people we've teamed with a lot and get along with, but the SGs aren't massively active because it's just a few of us who mostly play on and off, and all of our alts. I've tried to politely explain that we're not recruiting to people who send me tells, but they surprisingly frequently either get really annoying (begging, won't stop asking, etc.), or even argumentative. As a result, I've just about stopped responding. I doubt this is just happening to me, so it could explain some of the lack of response!

    Of course there's always the simpler explanation that people are base editing, or my usual trick - standing by the market, wandering off, and then getting booted off for being AFK.

    Im in a supergroup now but i was seeing if a person was in a supergroup and if they were, i'ld send them a polite message asking if there was any room/they were recruiting.

    The one saving grace is that weather is rarely that bad. No blizzards, no hurricanes, just kinda drab.
    Come to wales We'ld literally kill for an afternoon of sun

    Seriously, the other day we had maybe 4/5 hours max of sun and people were starting to talk about a heatwave

    Just merge the sodding server lists and get it over with.

    Well the only real benefit of playing on EU servers now is that you can all say "lovely weather" and you all know what the weather is like in the area

    So cry me a river, D.

    In all seriousness though (and because text is the worse medium for emphasis) it does seem a bit wierd synchronising the daily maintenance times since, I thought, that was mainly for the hardware located in the relevant datacenters.

    Too early to cry Doom™? It is the weekend after all...

    Never too early for doom

    Since you are in the UK i think you can appreciate that even though it isnt during our prime time, that it is netherless in the middle of the day. Obviously you are in the same situation even though you play on the US servers but the fact remains that in the middle of the day neither of us will be able to play the game.

    I am probs one of the few that is greatly affected by this due to my wierd work hours since i either can only play during the day or the early evening so my game time will be reduced Hence my "grrr"ness
