You can have more Epics when villains get a full set of thematically appropriate choices.

[/ QUOTE ]

Note, I play every AT and have four villains in epic range. So my question is: WHY DOES THIS MATTER?

Obviously, it's easier to give Scrappers Fire Mastery than it is to create four-five new Brute choices in one fell swoop. It doesn't hurt Brutes for them not to have them right now.

There are no sides. This is one game. Asking for something for one AT doesn't hurt another.

I like your suggested idea, Geko. It covers a nice area for ratings.

[/ QUOTE ]

Geko's suggestion.

And NO, for the last time, you should not be forced to play an entire arc to be able to rate it.

[/ QUOTE ]

Look, if you dont like an arc DONT PLAY it. But don't 1 star someone who put EFFORT into their arc and its NOT on a damn BOAT, and its NOT a FARM.

[/ QUOTE ]

Which is why my suggestion works as it does. In my suggestion, a "Do Not Recommend" is just information. It has no negative effect on the author, other than it might encourage people not to play your arc. But every person you get to "Recommend" your arc gets you one step closer to HoF status.

No more griefing, no quasi-objective, but not really numeric system. In such a situation, it no longer matters if you played the whole arc or not.

OK so full set proliferation is a big no, but is there any major reason that:

Blasters can't have Defender Psi Mastery (With Confuse in place of WoC)
Tankers can't have Scrapper Dark Mastery
Scrappers can't have Tanker Pyre Mastery
Defenders can't have Blaster Ice Mastery (With Shiver in place of Snow Storm)
Controllers can't have...err...they already have Fire Mastery.

Yes, this leave the naughty and epic people out in the cold, but that's not a good reason never to give appropriate choices to the ATs that got proliferated set in I12, but still await thematic epic choices.

RWZ hunts used to be 10 per mission, but then people started actually using them to exp so they got nerfed. Since this would make all hunts like that I sadly doubt this will be implemented.

I don't think any hunting mission should require more than 20 mobs.

[ QUOTE ]
That is correct.

[/ QUOTE ]

Thanks. I have a mission where you have to rescue one of each of the Mastermind Tier 3 pets. It's fun, but I couldn't understand why it gave such crap exp until I started looking at the logs.

Ally NPC kills do not reward exp, is this correct?

I agree with removing the stars. I would have three ratings:
[*] Recommend
[*] Neutral
[*] Do Not Recommend

Once you have 1000 recommends, you hit HoF status. The Do Not Recommends don't count but are reported. Like Do Not Recommends, Neutrals are reported but don't count against your 1000 recommends.

I design missions so my concept, non-min-maxed characters can solo them. I design them so teams I'm on have fun. Challenge is secondary.

I would also like the option of setting it so that it will Automatically pay my SG rent if the SG has the prestige available.

[/ QUOTE ]

This please.

Outstanding post, and well said.

Devs? Start selling an infinite amount of every recipe and every bit of salvage at a set price for a 3 week period once every six months. [u]Sell it where you think the prices should be. [u]

.The prices for the three weeks will bottom out, [u]since the Devs recipes will be selling BELOW the hyperinflated prices the community is used to.[u]

[/ QUOTE ]

You make a very, very dangerous assumption. You don't know what the devs would consider a fair price. It could be substantially higher. Because the devs would know that since they have created a store, they've taken away the variability in achievement that inventions and the market is supposed to create.

You're forgetting that the drop rates determine how much wealth enters the system. The devs set those drop rates at a point where they would be happy with the amount of wealth entering the system. They gave merits as a sop to the person who just can't seem to follow Smurphy's advice but complains that they can't have nice things.

Inflation in a system like this is an opportunity, not a challenge. Get out of MA, run some TFs, sell some recipes/salvage/etc., get rich, buy what you want.

Actually, on the subject of the actual thread topic....

Whatever happened to CuppaJo? I realize his original post said he was going to be the thread moderator for Tabula Rasa, but.... That game is now permanently shut down, so....

Anyone know where Cuppa disappeared to? Came back here? Went to a different company? No one knows?

Sorry, just curious....

"The One"

[/ QUOTE ]

Last I heard NCSoft let her go a bit before Tabula Rasa shut down. There was a day when NCSoft laid off a lot of people and April Burba (CuppaJo) was one of them.

New person decides instead of posting a new thread about something to look up and see if a topic has taken place and post in the appropriate thread.

necro posting is bad mm'kay ?.

but feel free too open another topic about this topic as long as no one remembers that they have talked about this topic .


[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah pretty much. This is the craziness of the necro-posting rule. The only just reason for the rule against necro posting I can see is that many times it brings up an issue where the devs said something (because only posts where they post are still around) that very well may have been contradicted or modified later.

But as you note, if you post a new thread, even linking the old threads, people come out to troll talking about dead horses and all that.

IMO, the whole "Search first" nonsense should be against the rules and those who frequently bring it up dealt with as trolls should be.

In before the lock on an epic necro post.

This is the kind of thing that should stay really. Yah, with the wrong choices it clips really badly, but with the right choices it can make for some really awesome combinations. Such as using Fringe or Cape for the High Collar to go along with the Bolero.

I say boo to this "fix".

[/ QUOTE ]

This.

I can deal with the clipping. But the two capes thing makes literally some of the most dead sexy costumes I've ever seen.

By the way, I just got mine with no problems. So run while the west coasters are asleep!

Tried three times to get this thing. Very disappointed that I couldn't. Giving up for tonight. Hoping I didn't get charged once or twice with no code.

Next time, allow people to pre-purchase the code so you don't have this problem. This is a major screw-up on NCSoft's part.

No one critiqued mine :-(

Probably will be too easy unless you have your difficulty cranked up a notch or two. Fair warning but with difficulty cranked up AV ambushes are possible. Any feedback you can give me would be appreciated

Arc Synopsis: A mysterious virus has started effecting electronic devices. Can you stop it before its too late?

If anyone has a good solo arc let me know and i'll be more then happy to run thru yours and critique it.

Must have. Why did they taunt us with this?

Fantastic idea. /signed.

I looked under the power selection screen and saw that under Blaster AND Corrupter AR was checked off so I can't even select a version of that power set that wouldn't have that inherant.....help pls!

[/ QUOTE ]

Interesting. From what you say here, if you were playing against a Corrupter minion, they would scourge rather than have defiance.

This could be fun.

[*]Mystic Fortune Power:

Ever wanted to have your fortune read in game? With the Mystic Fortune power players will be able to offer to read each other’s fortunes. Having your fortune read gives a power buff based on the Major Arcana of the Tarot, and can give a positive or negative effect on that character for the next 20 minutes.


[/ QUOTE ]

I sure hope the effects of this power are deletable before 20 minutes ... I don't want some terd I don't know, running up to me, using their power, and now i'm debuffed for the next 20 minutes with no way to prevent it/remove it.

[/ QUOTE ]

The effect is NOT deletable, however, you are given a confirmation as to whether or not you accept having your fortune told. If you say 'No,' you get no fortune and the person who cast it now has to wait the full recharge time to try again.

Said recharge time being.....?
