You can ignore the levels at which powers are selected, I haven't rearranged the build yet. For example I'll take wet ice and frozen armor much earlier.
I think I like the numbers but this is my first ice tank so all feedback is welcome and appreciated.
Thanks

Howdy, Tech Forum. Finally, the time has come - I'm getting a new computer.
The only detail still up in the air, due to relative lack of knowledge in that particular department is sound cards. Does anyone have a recommendation for a specific card (presumably a Sound Blaster of some kind)? Or do the newer motherboards have good enough on-board sound support? Is there really any big difference between the various SB cards?
Thanks in advance!
I went back to the onboard and it's good enough for me.
So anything but a Creative card is what I'd suggest. -
When I first read the title my immediate response was "It's not my birthday!"

I'm gonna transfer my fire/regen to Virtue just so I can drop you Lord_Jackass.
Stay in school and off the drugs, punk.
C'MON! I haven't even started yet! C"MON!!!

It was a lot of fun. I think we knocked it out of the park with only 1 death (someone searching for a glowie) in 35 minutes.
Of course we had some of the best players on that team (read: me).
EDIT: Derr, I forgot she includes the times with each summary. -
You allergic to doing work and putting together a mids build yourself?

Hi BB,
Long time. Cute troll. I've just been pling and pveing. Near 0 pvp on Liberty but I did make a sonic/therm and am planning to pimp her out and I might transfer her to Freedom.
Anyway, the DR rules around this are extremely vague. The problem is I don't trust the numbers in Mids. Are there any concise and accurate documents out there? I checked a bit ago and wasn't able to find any.
For non PVP set bonusses is it no more than 2 bonusses? No more than 3? -
I have a couple of quesitons:
- What are the set bonus rules? In PVE you can't have more than 5 of a particular set bonus. How 'bout PVP?
- Are PVP sets (i.e. Javelin's Volley) affected by DR on set bonusses?
-
I think the Alienware M11x is shipping as of March 2nd. Looks alright but may be an underpowered processor and of course a small screen and keyboard.
800 bucks though, not too shabby. 950 bucks for a 2nd processor and 2gb more RAM. -
I was looking at this one:

Seems like a real good bang for the buck. -

I got my DP/Storm corr from 1-50 and I got my sonic/therm corr from 1-43.
Who needs AE?
How'd everyone else do? -

I suggested that they add the proliferation as part of the GR expansion.

It's already been accepted that you shouldn't get this choice unless you've bought the expansion. So, with the understanding that you have to buy GR for this option, do you still object?

How does it make "NO business sense"?
They wouldn't lose any money...if anything, they would be getting more money.
Why would they do that? -
Guy #1, try defragging.
Guy #2, make sure your computer isn't overheating. -

DP's Pistols and the classic power of "Brawl" show it can be done: an attack that cycles through animations. It's NOT random, but every time you use it it flips. I'd like this in Martial Arts and Super Strength. Additional options called "Bright Switch" and "Dark Switch" where you set the color for it to always be, and then it flips back and forth between the two animations.
Lets hope they see this and think it's worh putting into the game "soon"-ish.
Even if it flipped and wasn't random I wouldn't mind. -
Quote:Oh OK I didn't realize the 4 different animations for Pistols. I can't remember but I don't think I took it. I took dual wield and empty clips and for those there's only 1 animation.Originally Posted by Techbot Alpha
This is as suicidal as saying; "It can't really be that bad." when talking about the internet.
We have no idea how hard the tech is.
On the plus side, we do see it used in DP as it is; [Pistols] has 4 different animations that it cycles through, and looks gorgeous for it.
Regarding my comment about the tech, they gave us the option to choose different animations. The /em alakazamreact cycles through different things (each player has a chance of seeing something different).
So I'm more certain than not that the tech wouldn't be too hard. It would just require additional animations with the same exact animation length.
With that being said, I do have a feeling that there's still a lot of stringy code in this game so for all we know making this change could break bases.
Also when I first made this suggestion I was thinking how cool it would be to see both KO blow animations during battle.
Thanks for the feedback.

I know I'm not supposed to "bump" so I'll make this relevant. Now with DP the animations are cool but they're repetitive of course like all the other animations for attack sets.
How cool would it be if we were to get multiple animations (same length for powers) and it just randomly decides what animation to use for a particular attack.
I think this would make DP and other sets like SS and MA better and help further immerse the player into the game.
I don't think the tech to do this would be tough and I still think it'd be a nice feature.

Oh I'm only part of LB and I didn't recall seeing it in the MOTD, it might have been there, it's something I sometimes skip over. But I'm pretty sure I was online up until 50 minutes before the event so I might have missed it.
It's a shame more people didn't join. Maybe we need to poke people in LB a day ahead of the event or so.
I think everyone in Warburg had fun and we need to do more of it. -
Yeah I doubt it'll be a regular thing but I'm up for it. It does become a bit like pulling teeth though.
I was on my fire/regen and never took MOG at 38. -
It was still fun. PW got a pancea health. I had about 50 rep by the end of it. I was pleansantly surprised we had about 10 folks in there, most of which stayed as long as I did (maybe 2 hours or so).
-
LOL. Funny I had forgotten about this but just prior to this "event" we had about 10 or so people in Warburg having an FFA. The most PVP action I've seen on Liberty in a long time.
LB should be used for things like this. I don't recall seeing any mention of it outside of this forum post. -
I've never played a sonic attack or a therm. Any feedback on my PVE and PVP builds? For PVE I'm not sure what attacks are skippable. I know I want everything from /therm. I also want to softcap ranged defense so I had to make some changes to acheive that. For PVP I found a good base build and went from there. Aside from being ridiculously expensive I'm not sure if there's anything I'm missing.
Regards,
Fitz

QR,
Why not just have a global bank? This would eliminate the need for switching toons.
