  1. What the hell is a Paragon Merit? Did I miss a memo somewhere, or is this what we're calling reward tokens now?

    edit: also, that ****** wolf pet will be the end of me.
  2. Dink you are the best. Best username especially. Can't stop giggling.
    • It's a game. A GAME. If you start getting worked up about something, ask yourself: is this worse than being a war orphan in Darfur? Then feel guilty and calm down a little bit.
    • Could be a real good reason for that guy acting like a jerk/crybaby/ignoramus/knowitall. Maybe it's best to let it slide.
    • If you're not having fun, start doing something to correct that.
    • Vet status, regdates and postcounts tell you nothing at all about a person, and if you judge people on such meaningless criteria, you're a fool.
    • Nothing rankles a troll or griefer more than simply being ignored.
    • Mute the sound.
  3. Finally I can access that snazzy chest piece at creation, not 35.
  4. If the devs put every non-purple/non-PvP IO on the Paragon Market, I'd use points to outfit every single character I make. I guess they don't want my money that bad.
  5. Rad/Fire defender. Bitten by a radioactive blowtorch, gained great power (and great responsibilities).

    TW or StJ?

    Depends, OP. Do you prefer hitting ************* really hard with your hands and feet, or would you rather smash **** up with a huge weapon? Both sets are awesome.

    If I had to pick one, I would probably pick StJ simply because it fits more concepts I have.
  7. When I roll something that could be traps, I have to force myself to make anything other than traps.
  8. Virtue. The best server. We will welcome you with open arms.

    This is likely to be exactly as productive as reporting it to the devs, and much less frustrating over the long term.
  10. I will never, as long as I play CoH, roll another Kinetics or Empathy of any AT.
  11. I love inviting people who actually talk in chat to my team. Way too many silent TFs under my belt, despite my best efforts at getting people to joke around.
  12. Statesman is a terrible, boring character and I am glad to see him go. The only thing I could say was good about the character was that he wasn't a full-on avatar of jingoism.

    What is the issue with City Of Heroes and 11.10+ CCC/Drivers? With as many players as CoH has statistically half are on ATI/AMD cards, one would think this issue would be a lot more common and therefore fixed or even patched.
    Who knows? Not me, that's for sure. I chalk it up to pixies and do the driver dance when necessary.

    Sale Price or Regular Price? To be “on sale” the item must have had a higher former price within the last three months. If an item is always on sale then it’s false advertising.

    You guys are in Cali right? Might want to have legal look at your marketing.
    This is not relevant. The only thing being sold for money is points, and there isn't any shenanigans going on related to selling points. Using points to trade for ingame items insulates them from this sort of legislation.

For an example, two slots in Hasten with recharging enhancements will highlight in "Green", meaning that this is good, and if a buffed power is highlighted in yellow, that means you are not too far from the accurate mark on Mids.

    Just sharing great info.
    This is the cutest post. It's like when your five year old tries to give you advice on what car to buy.

    Why is this? You guys making too much money on them? I mean, ****. If I could just up and drop a few bucks to kit out my characters, you'd get a lot more money out of me. Hell, just sell literally every non-purple/non-PvP IO on the market. I'd buy 'em, and I am not the only one.

    edit: Go ahead and sell PvP/purples too if you like, I don't use 'em too much but if I could get them for a decent price I'd probably be willing to do so.

    edit 2: the editening: It's kind of disingenuous to call something a sale price when you have only ever sold it at the sale price. It'd be different if these things were offered for sale all the time and received a discount now and then, but as it is, you sell them at the one price then pull them.
  17. Downgrade your drivers to 11.9.

    Also post in tech support next time, more folks will be inclined to answer.

    Yep.

    ********.

    Good work!
  20. Rise of the Phoenix and Soul Transfer are good fun. Even if they kill you, you still win.

    No end problems on my DA characters, and why run Acro when -KB IOs are cheap like borscht?

    edit: I see you have that option there, not sure why I didn't see it.

    Which is better?

    DB/DA all day every day. Burn's nice, but DA is just too damned good.
