    Quickness for me is also an 'always take' power. It's not only a nifty auto +20% recharge, +fly spd and +run spd buff, but resists movement slows (fly and run speed) and recharge debuffs.

    As far as slots to devote to it .. as Werner said there's about a bazillion ways to get there, the important thing is getting there with the values capped vs ED whether its 2, 4 or 6 slots in your build and whether it's with SO's, generic IO's, or sets.
    I guess that's what I'm really asking. What's the easiest way to get to the cap on defence with SR?

    Take pretty much all of your secondary. (I skipped the Tier 9, but after everything else was IO'd out with sets I was in the 45% range.)
    What if you want to use IO sets?
  3. Which is more important shields or passives? How many slots per power?
  4. Which is more important? Shieilds or passives? How many slots per power?

    Unknown HTML?

    So I built my 1st mission and I can't test it because I get a message saying "Name" has unknown HTML? What is that and how do I fix it?
  6. Happy Birthday!

    Also.... GO STEELERS!

This probably won't work because, my god people, you got some weird log on/off times.

    Or it'll work spectacularly and force people to show up on time, knowing they won't be stuck with me later on.
    Yeah. This month will be hard. I work late every Wednesday but still have my regular schedule the next day so I still have to log off at my normal time 10:00 ish. I'll be logging on between 8:30 and 9:00

    Would it be possible to list Chest Details in different drop lists?
    Currently it it VERY cluttered.
    If you added a drop list of TYPE:
    Then a secondary drop list with items that go into that list.

    I.E.
    Type: Symbols
    Secondary: Star 4

    or

    Type: Letters/Numbers
    Secondary: <greek alphabet>

    or

    Type: Accessories
    Secondary: Praetorian Police
    Option 1. Regardless if we get an art update can we reorganize the costume choices? The above seems a good way to go to reorganize.
  9. It seems to me that one of the reasons it's so easy is they've nerfed enough things to make it so any one can solo reasonably well. That didn't used to be the case. Hopefuly data mining from Preatoria will cause then to adjust CoH and CoV to that level of diffeculty.
  10. Planning on running Hess TF tonight.

    1st come 1st served.

  12. I was just loged off the server. It appears all the servers are down. I look forward to playing all day damn it. This is supposed to happen durning the day.

He was part of the Squadron Supream/Sinester to be the Superman part of the JLA knock off so that Thor could plant him.
  14. I just finnished Final Crisis and was wondering how many Superman "inspired" copies there are.

    Of course there's the original Superman but then there is:

    Apollo, Gladiator, Hyperion, Uberman and our own Statesman.

    Who else is there?
  15. At the rate Iso's level Preatoria will be a blur. Well maybe not. The MANDATORY solo missions might slow us down.

    I can't decide what to run. Dark/Dark scrapper, KM/WP scrapper, or a SS/WP tank. Any suggestions?
  16. Yesterday I was putting a Positron TF together and made a mistake where whe had to quit the TF and restart. Some where along the line we got an extra person (a late comer) and Sheline, who was a part of the original team got left out. Due to me NOT paying attention (obviously) I didn't realise she was missing untill half way through the mission. So I just want to apologize to Sheline for my mistakes.

    Sorta. If I remember correctly they picked your global for you and it was based on the 1st charicter your created? If that's not it I got no clue as to how it happend.
  18. Waaaaayyyyy back in July 2004 while attending that years Origins my son and I were able to play CoH at the set up they had there. I wanted to play a woman as I felt every one would be playing some variation of "Billy Bad ***". I wanted to go against the grain. We didn't have a lot of time and I played arround with a couple of names (I can't remember what) that were all ready taken. So I decided to go the ironic route. She was a scrapper and hit things (or so I thought) with her fists. So Fista. The "A" makes it feminin, don't ch'a know.

    So when I got a free try out a few days later, I recreated her and viola! I'm Fista.
  19. How about the signage around town? I'm tired of seeing the same old ads on bill boards etc. How about holding a contest for fans to come up with new bill boards/adds and you can hold it like twice a year to keep things fresh?

    Also what every one else said. More unique buildings. More unique neighborhoods. Talos (home of the Tsoo) should have an "China/Asian" theamed area, shouldn't it?

    To Boldly Go....

    I think I'm pretty much done here. I was hopeing GR would keep my interest but as info is very slow in coming I'm letting my account expire on Jan 8th. I think it's time for something new. I've been playing since July 8th 2005. It's been fun.

    Hamster, I'll miss you most of... no wait. Voodoo I'll miss you most.... that's not right. Mental? Viv? Des? OK. All of you.

    Maybe some of you will deside to "Boldly Go" as well. It starts Feb 2nd.
  21. When a friend told me about it I thought it was a joke. When I confirmed it I almost cried.

    It's not enough that George Lucas ***** my childhood with the prequils and Indy 4 now this.
  22. It's a new board and a new Iso's. Maybe old wounds have healed.

    'Cause Manti isn't one. That aside, I was trying to be nice. Primeal Earth Marcus Cole is a hero. The other two are not. One serves a dictator, the other is one. Is Primeal Earth's Cole the exception?
