I was in a PUG last night and it had forum celeb Judgement Dave on it. That's him, Myopic Aardvark, Mother's Love and Damz ticked - how many do I need to get my first badge?

1. Since I4 Castle had been looking for a coding change to allow an end to Toggle dropping. Unbeknownst to him, Shannon Pozniewski (a cryptic programmer) added it in. Castle only recently found documentation on that, so, now it's in.

Heehee - hurrah for patchy change management systems!

[/ QUOTE ]

That change is something that really excites me, if I understand it correctly.

Does he mean that if an enemy hits you with a power which currently would drop your toggles, after I13 it won't drop those toggles?

That to me is one of the most irritating things about this game, having to constantly reclick your toggles.

[/ QUOTE ]

Toggles that affect yourself (resis/def shields as an example) are the ones that dont detoggle but will be supressed. Wasnt it mentioned that agressive toggles are the ones that WILL detoggle?
No official comment on leadership toggles yet i think.

Did you want that name for a character who quite obviously got their powers from a mix of Blue Curacao and cheap, but strong cider???

for some reason the image of vahzilok zombies projectile vomiting came to mind when I considered the superpowers that this concoction might bestow on the hapless drinker...

[/ QUOTE ]

lol no It was actually my very first character i created on a create-a-character screen and the name has just always stuck in my head as a concept that could have multiple angles and is my most favourite name for a hero.

Isnt it funny the names that you want that are taken you NEVER see them around ingame

I just presumed it was a connect four game

Could be the power that controls the jail cells upstairs in which you must protect them otherwise the villains break free? (is there code ingame for this to happen?)

I wonder if it'll be live before or after the Halloween event? I think it'd make more sense for it ot be after it.

[/ QUOTE ]

Doesnt halloween event start in like 1 or 2 weeks? Be fastest beta ever if it came out before then

My guess is 18th november 5:30

Its a hint to what lies within the crystal

When on a defender/buffer i usually say when i join the team/when a new player joins to say whether they DONT want my buffs or not. Much quicker then ^_^

1) Got invited to a team as a low lvl PEACEBRINGER

2) We did hollows repeatable missions NOT kings row <<double shock!!!

3) i liked it

Oh just like to add that the name i MOST wanted but couldnt 'cause taken was Blue Lightning . Still cry myself to sleep because i cant use it

Ultimate Damz - My first and only 50 ( i alt way too much) and by far my favourite toon. Started out as just Damz on defiant but when i transfered him over to union the name was already taken (not by me ) so changed it to ultimate damz xD (now damz is taken by me xD). Most of my toons are linked together in that they have different "forms" for different situations. Super Damz for example is a team based toon designed to buff. Healer-damz is just that, a healer. Guardian damz is my tank designed to stop ANY dmg getting to the teammates and sonof-damz is designed to be in perma scrapperlock

Shadow Waster - Because hes a warshade and full of shadow.

The Cruise - When me and a few mates ingame get together a little event called "the cruise" we all get our cruise styled toons out to chill in atlas and hold random contests.

1 hit wonder - hes a stalker, do i need to say anything else?

1. Pet window for heroes

[/ QUOTE ]

We have them I always have it on on my warshade/controller. Theres an option to enable it in the options screen i think and also a button to tab in the team button? (click team *do not click find members* and and ontop of tab SHOULD be a pet button i think?)

Edit: But i agree it should be on by default

1) Being able to rename controller pets.

2) Being able to set a preffered attack mode for your pets - melee/ranged/mixture

3) Being able to combine travel powers for a temp buff. For example by combinin ss and fly, you have temp buffed your fly speed PAST the fly cap. (would be good for pvp admit it)

I love those missions/maps xD Prooves a nice challenge for your toon, after all theyr only marksmen right?

been having some rubberbanding now and then but nothing major like we had a few months back.

Welcome to the game Be sure to make a random noise when your here

havent taken it on my ill/rad and never will Constantly fighting high level mobs and i even enjoy fighting malta/carnies who have LOTS of stuns/holds.

Reason? I just dont need it simple as. I have two toggle powers in the form of leadership and my inspiration bar always has a breakfree in it (if not always combine insps), with the amount of debuffs/pets i have out during every fight i just dont see myself getting hit by any sort of attack let alone a mez attack (which are usually the alpha which my decoys take/i emp them first).
So in exchange of getting mez protection iv been able to get more powers that i feel would benefit the team AND me more, and i must say im VERY happy with the results

Of course im of the opinion that controllers job is to prevent the enemy from even attacking so in that respect i could be a bit biased For tanks/scrappers though i would almost certainly take mez protection everytime.

Illusion/rad troller!!!! ^_^ Get to level 18 and nothing can defeat you!!!!

oooo nice xD well least youv gotten started now xD Best thing about the silos tf is that the salvage from his missions sell for quite a lot too and as you should have noticed each mission is VERY quick.
Good luck in ya missions xD

Indeed; existing at the damage cap* permanently** is no longer just for the kinetics.

The ability to toggle into dwarf form while mezzed is going to be nice too, actually... mez protection, resistance and recovery boost from already mezzed... did we just get Strength of Will on a toggle?

* Which I believe is 400% including the base 100%, so +300% including slotted enhancements.

** In nova form, with correct (but possible with SOs) enhancement slotting, on a sufficiently large team with mostly offensive archetypes and closely packed spawns for suitably timed miring.

[/ QUOTE ]

Futures bright for the kheldians I could even be tempted to make a human kheldian since their shields no longer drop too An all human warshade with all those toggles isnt such a bad idea anymore, only two toggles i can think of that would require re-toggling.
Orbiting death and that toggle aura stun.

Issue 13 be a great time to make a new kheldian to get all those lovely buffs from shield scrapper/tanks xD
Also like to add that kheldians really can fill any hole in the team now, what with team buffs passing over to forms we are even more capable of either blasting away (with increased dmg) or tanking (with increased res).

Times are good xD

With the recent kheldian power changes/toggle ideas im DEFO going to be remaking my warshade xD Mire + nova + teammates buff = drool worthy
Looking forward to I13 now a lot

Last year we gave the occasion a nod by doing the Baywatch on the Beach, this year the PK's theme is movie costumes and we'll ask the bystanders to vote (trusting they get it right! ) on which is best.

[/ QUOTE ]

This mean the costume contest is movie themed or your sg is coming in as movie stars? i'll try to make a background appearance and join in on the pvp if any happens.
Love the randomness that happens at these sort of gatherings so will TRY to make it depending on work hours.

Thanks guys I mooched into the Shadow Shard the other day with the intention of looking at the Storm Palace but got sidetracked

I will also try Mender Silos and see what delights he can provide

[/ QUOTE ]

A little tip if you do decide to do some street farming in storm palace is to avoid the wisps, they do purely psi dmg and their -recharge is deadly! can easily get to -150% recharge from just the alpha (ignoring the high dmg they do).
I love going there personally since its (imo) the most beautiful zone ingame and you dont have to wait around/travel a lot to get to the next big group, theyr all over
If you want a duo partner for silos 4 mish farm then send me an ingame tell about 11pm tonight if your on xD anyway best of luck in getting your inf! xD
(oh and the wincott rare recipe "bug" still aint fixed if your interested )

What you have to remember though is the time you play, iv noticed a lot lately that there is a lot more players on after 8pm than the old(er) peak time of say 6pm.
Just take that into account when scouting the population Also feel free to join in on our random atlas chats

Even I have been strongly considering getting a temp 2nd account to get more inf to help me get there. 2nd account aside how long do people think it would take to earn around 500million inf doing anything that comes up in game...


[/ QUOTE ]

If i really pushed out i can probs get 200 mill a week doing my solo able farms. What people dont realise with farms is that the well known farm missions arent always the best ones. There are numerous ways to obtain quick easy money.
A quick simple example would be to sell EVERYTHING you get. Most people just delete the common level 50 run/dmg/acc (etc) recipes whereas they usally sell for 100k each at a store/trainer. Of course theres the time spent travelling but thats easily overcomeable.

Another HIGHLY looked over farm method are street sweeping.
"But where can i find high lvl mobs in large clusters?" = The storm palace is PERFECT this, iv been there myself lately earning prestige/inf since each mob = roughly 2k prestige, a high amount of quick inf (if you can handle the mobs, luckily my main toon can) and pretty darn good drops too.

However if your a bit of badger like me then you'll be trying for both earned inf + good drops. Mender silos tf is your friend If you try to run it as fast as possible then you can get 1.2 mill EARNED inf (per 10/15 mins) + good drops (some salvage from them sell for roughly 3 mill ish) + obv the chance for a purple. This is my fav method since ANY toon can do this regardless of build since you get manticore helping you out. The trick is to finish the first 4 missions then quit/repeat. Each four mish run usually gets quite a lot of salvage/recipe drops and just by coincidence theres a store almost right next to him so sell downtime is a minimum.
If you want my opinion thats the best and most favourable method to get quick inf on small teams/solo and using it shouldnt take long to reach your desired inf level goal.
Many other "damz get rich quick methods" which i keep to globals and friends though

The way iv always seem teams geared is that low/mid lvls ppl want emps to keep their unenhanced toons alive, high lvl people tend to want more situational buff toons like +def/+recharge/+att since theres a higher chance that the player wouldv enhanced their buff powers to a point in that it will make a difference, after all who needs a heal if you aint getting hit/killing things uber quick.
IMO
