  1. thanks for the info

    As for CP.. I know elec has a low base Acc so I was thinking taking Focus accuracy and the new +reg / +recov power ( can't remember the name) to help with end. Would this work?

    I think with all the toggle running I was somewhere around 1.1end/sec used on a 3.83 end/sec recovery. Would CP really make a difference if it's not on all the time?
  2. I've been toying with the idea of making a new scrapper and was thinking of going with an Elec/SR.

    I never played /SR so I have no real idea of how it plays. I know I should be aiming for the softcap to positional but is there anything I should know beside that? Is there a way to buff the defense debuff resistance? if so how would I do it? also, is Elude really needed on a softcaped build?

    I have a elec/elec brute (my favorite Vilains so far) so I know very well how Elec/ plays.

    I don't have my planned build since i'm at work but I simply wanted input on what I should know about /SR and if there was anything REALLY important to not forget.
  3. i'm really going to need to put that in my sig...

    It's the Templar taunt power (I should say one of the taunt power) from Aion.
  4. ok so I tested this idea and it's not very viable.

    It does trigger off of many target so that is confirmed BUT since you can't control when FA is used it's really not reliable. I've seen it trigger on a mob of 4 and only 2 heal went off for a total of 64hp.

    If we had control of when powers are used by our pets it would make sense to slot this but since it doesn't seem to be triggered when needed (half HP or less) it doesn't help in the long run.

    I did notice that the demon price would stay at max health for a bit longer but when his health started to drop it would drop fast and by that time it's too late for the proc.

    Can someone tell me what Witty is talking about? or is the rum getting to strong for the old man?

    Welcome to the game.

    Before you decide to settle with an SG, take time to play with many different people and see what they are like. A big SG might sound good on paper but it might not be what you will like (or it might be). Just don't rush and accept the first SG invite you get without knowing who they are, how they play, if there is any rules... etc.

    Don't be afraid to ask question

    Also A Lightning Rod-esque Tele-PBAoE-Hold would be friggin awesome.

    Elec/Kin, Elec/Rad, Elec/Storm - yeah, its gonna be a busy time for me in GR....

    well they already have something like that coded in the game. Just look at the attack done by a blue mito. It can jump from a target to another until there is no target and the range is pretty long. also it drains endurance iirc. The PBAOE end drain field from the mito would also make a nice "lightning field" kinda like the confuse aura.

    I wouldn't say its worth it though, as the heal is really pitifully small. Even if you hit several mobs with it. Not worth the slot, especially if you've got other sources of healing.

    I understand that having any other heals will heal for more than the proc could do but at the same time seeing the health of your prince go up on it's own means you can concentrate on the other pets. I have a spare slot on my build so i'll try it once i get to 32.
  10. Anyone tried to put the chance to self heal in their Demon Prince and see if that triggers when he uses Frozen aura? I guess it would only trigger on Frozen aura but i'm thinking that since it's a PBAOE, the 5% heal multiplied by the amount of target hit could make him pretty hard to kill.

    Welcome aboard

    Just to add to what others have said, don't let the number of people on the street give you the impression that the server is empty. We are a very active community and every one pretty much know (from global name at least) every one else.

    To help you find people, join the global channels mentioned. Also if you didn't know, to send a "tell" (private message) to someone like Amy offered simply type : /t %name%, message so for example you could send this to Amy:
    /t @amygdala, Hey I found my student card!!!!!

    This will send it to her global name so any character she is currently playing ( heroes or vilains) will receive the message. You can also send it directly to a specific character by replacing the name.

    /t Dex Laroche, can you help me with all you awesomeness??
  12. just don't do like me and go grav/Storm.

    IT's fun..... if you like running after your mobs and aggroing everything around you. Grav doesn't have any sort of -KB but has a very nasty ST KB attack (visually pleasant and nice damage but huge KB) and since Storm is all about KB, it doesn't help lol

    I never played Ill, so I can't comment on that one.

    Well since some of our drama king and queens have left.. I haven't see much drama on Champion and it has returned to it's Community title. We have so many events running every day that it's hard to plan on what you want to do. Everyone I see online tries to help, receiving buff left and right while soloing, giving advice to new player and helping them understand the community. I honestly think it's the best server ( but yeah i'm biased)
  14. Actually the some 7900 are known to have memory problem. bad chip or something which would cause the graphic bugs you are getting. I know mine did and I was able to get an RMA from it.

    I know this might not be useful since you probably can't easily replace the card with another one. But it's something to keep in mind.

    You could check with the card manufacturer to see if they do RMA on those card. I know EVGA has a lifetime warranty and when I sent mine back in 2 years ago they sent me back a 8800gt instead sine they were out of 7900.

    Again, keep that in mind for last resort, try everything else before.

    server size

    Champion is pretty active but mainly after 6pm Eastern time. There are a couple good channel to join if you're looking for teams (BMT of champion for example)

    beside that I think Freedom and Virtue are the 2 most populated (although more population doesn't mean better)
  16. hum. I wasn't sure if people who didn't pre-purchased were still able to see the powerset or not. If they can't then please ignore my previous reply.
  17. at first i'd say you haven't pre-purchased Going Rogue.

    From the official site: Issue 17 gives players who have prepurchased City of Heroes Going Rogue the opportunity to play with two of the new power sets early: Demon Summoning and Dual Pistols.

    Dual Pistol was released early. and not they released Demon summoning

    Now this is were you are wrong lol

    Don't forget that Tuesday is the night for Task Force Tuesday (go figure...) ran by Cherry.

    I might be able to make it depending on the day you decide to run it.

    funny I was always under the impression that in the search when people are Grey it's because they are already on a team. light blue is when they don't have a team but haven't set their LFT flag, Red is not looking and I forgot the LFT flag color...

    Mids new version

    nice work, now this is what I call a timely release I'll be sure to download it as soon as I get home. I think I've spent about the same amount of time in Mids as in game lol
