Having just reactivated my account after over a year away, I'm starting to wonder why I bothered as the EU servers are effectively empty. Comparing now to the EU launch, it's now like playing in a ghost town. When will the US and EU servers be merged?

The goal for all my characters is to get to 50, then make a new one. Simple.

i fail to see where this great conspiracy that there's some elite group about here and that only they have a valid opinion if that was the case there would be no disagreements on here and i would have no one to argue with.

Heh

It has nothing to do with power changes. It's to do with the forum migration and the need to prune old threads that haven't been active in the past 6 months.

I didn't mean the posts were removed because of power changes, I meant that many guides would still be valid, despite the few power changes there have been recently.

Still, removing all but 19 threads from the Guides forum really doesn't make much sense. Yes there have been a few power changes over the past few months, but the bulk of powers and powersets are unchanged or have changed very little.

I wouldn't like to level that build, with only 2 single target attacks till 26...

No problem. But seriously, there are bigger things in life except people pushing your character a couple of feet in a game.

Get over it.

Y'know, I understand the need to protect people from fraud, but I've always thought that reasoning a little suspect. I mean, if someone nicks your credit card, they're HARDLY going to log on to the PlayNC website, log on to an account who's name and password they don't know, and buy some stuff for a game they don't know how to play, or have access to, are they?

No, they're gonna be down Virgin Megastore buying PS3's and the like.

What if a CoH user steals someone else's credit/debit card? That is why it is there.

A 'hardcore' weekend with halved xp, inf and drop rates would not make the game harder or more challenging, it would just make it twice as boring. No thanks.

Sands of Mu every single time. It does more damage than the axe (most of the time, and for me fighting ghosts is a rarity), and it's a cone, people. Unless you are unable to line up cones properly, this makes it far superior in my eyes.

Wolf Spiders aren't really Wolf Spiders with bloody great claws on their backs though.

Well if you got to 50 then you must be doing something right

If you download Mids' Hero Designer, put in your current build with powers, slots and enhancements and post it here (via the forum export feature) then we can take a look at it and see if there's anything we can do to help.

If you haven't seen it yet, there's a good Wolf Spider guide here.

The only thing better than that would be MORE WORDS IN CAPITALS.

You made one team!

The servers must have a massive population!

I agree with most of what Death Badger said above, and also:

MoG: Could have a more sensible/effective slotting

[/ QUOTE ]

ED-capped recharge is the most sensible and effective slotting for MoG. Purposely enhancing anything else is a waste.

Where's Reconstruction? A pretty essential part of a Regen's defences...

In addition, boni is not a word!

Also, I couldn't give a [censored] about the community.

Well that's nice then - I'm sure a lot of the community would be happy to return the sentiment

The US forums have a lot more trolls and whiners too - is that the reason you find them more interesting?

[/ QUOTE ]

Of course

For a true Scrapper, dying is just an excuse to get up and fight more.

I'd love to see a merge of the EU and US forums. They are far more interesting and have (as I have always said) a huge amount of dev interaction - well no, they have dev interaction, seeing as we have negligible amounts. Also, I couldn't give a [censored] about the community.

It would also knock a certain few off their high horses, which is never a bad thing in my eyes

I've never RPed, but I'm not going to lose sleep over that.

Those that are high enough level to care about:

Claws/Regen
MA/Regen
Katana/SR
DB/Regen
Spines/Dark

Definitely definitely take Practiced Brawler. It provides plenty of knockback protection and it's hold protection is far superior to that in Acrobatics (which only provides protection against one hold). PB also gives you sleep, stun and immobilise protection, which aren't covered by Acrobatics.
