Fleeting Whisper

I have my doubts that the letter writer is any character we've ever encountered before in the game. One of the letters says "you have not yet met me face to face". This would suggest that it's not Requiem, it's not Nemesis, it's not Flower Knight, etc. etc. etc. It's someone new. For a character we've heard of but never met, the Dream Doctor might be a good pick, but I'm not certain how good he fits (though the Dream Doctor is an ex-Midnighter and the letter writer seems to be very familiar with them)

I suppose "yourself" could be a possibility for Dark Mirror, since the only "face to face" time we would have gotten would be in a mirror, and Dark Mirror may be giving us a self-duplicate, but that just seems like a cop-out to me.

... AM doesn't give +tohit nor -def

I wanna live in your world!

Assuming lv50 Obliteration pieces, that should give you:
120 / (1 + 1.3193) = 120 / 2.3193 = 51.74s recharge.

There may be a rounding error somewhere in Mids' (I'm being as exact as I can be, on the spot), or you're not giving your exact set bonus values. Either way, the number you're reporting is better for you than the number I've calculated for you.

Edit: You would need less than 2% more recharge than you claim you have in order to get HoB down to the recharge time Mids' is reporting to you.

I've said this ever since the trial restrictions were added to the game =/

That's no help, Nemesis is against everyone. You'd know that if you played CoV


There's this really cool arc where you play security at EvilCon (okay, the arc is "Conference of Evil" and the mission is "Secure the Conference"... I like playing security at EvilCon. I get in free that way! )

The Center: "While we wait for this to begin, I have one question I'd like to voice, which I'm sure is on everyone's mind."
Tub Ci: "Why have we been gathered here?"
Countess Crey: "What is Lord Recluse's masterplan?"
Dreck: "Is this going to be open bar?"
The Center: "No. The question we should all be asking is:"
The Center: "What is Nemesis doing here?"
Nemesis: "A good question, which will be answered just about..."
Nemesis: "Now."
Longbow Officer: "This is a Longbow action!"
Longbow Ballista: "You are all under arrest!"

Tub Ci: "How did they find us?"
Nemesis: "Elementary! I told them!"
Tub Ci: "WHAT?"
Countess Crey: "WHAT?"
Sebastian Frost: "WHAT?"
Dreck: "WHAT?"
Arakhn: "WHAT?"
Requiem: "WHAT?"
Longbow Officer: "WHAT?"
Longbow Ballista "WHAT?"
...
The Center: "And this is why I never invite Nemesis to anything."
...
Arakhn: "This is all your fault, Requiem!"
Requiem: "This is all your fault, Arakhn!"

There are several letters.

"Retrieve Computer Information" from The Pilgrim: "Remove the 5th Column leaders" from Mender Lazarus sort-of-a-TF/SF: "Go to the Atlas Park fashion show and keep Candy Lebeaux from being abducted." from Twilight's Son sort-of-a-TF: "Take out Marchand once and for all" from Mender Tesseract's sort-of-a-SF: "Fight against Arachnos in Striga" from Mender Silos' sort-of-a-TF and "Determine the true depths of Manticore's evil ways." from Mender Silos' sort-of-a-SF: "Retake the city" from Imperious' TF/SF:

Unrealistic. You're unlikely to get any reasonable amount of +Acc set bonuses without having already slotted set IOs which have accuracy.

While you can certainly get enough +Acc from set bonuses that you don't need accuracy slotting in other powers, I'm not sure it's possible to rely entirely on Accuracy set bonuses.

My advice is to look for some other set bonus type to focus on, and you'll wind up with a bunch of Accuracy bonuses anyway.

For a long time, NCSoft specifically included the number of CoH/V subscribers in their quarterly reports, not just the income from the game. According to those numbers, CoH/V has never exceeded 200,000 concurrent subscriptions, and the most recent report put us around 140,000 IIRC. If you extrapolate from income with the most recent reports (which don't include subscriber numbers any more), our current playerbase is somewhere around 130,000.

The residents of Nova Praetoria have both freedom and free will. They may not enjoy the results of what they do, but neither would I enjoy the results of jumping off a tall building.

Lysosomes do NOT affect Enforcers. I'm not sure what other "this should work through the HO exploit but doesn't" instances there are, but I know Lysos in Enforcers does not work. Use Membranes or Cytoskeletons.

"It" is present tense.

"Its" is the possessive form of "It".

They aren't residents, are they?

On the contrary, Cole's goal is to keep the world safe from the Devouring Earth. (Or at least Nova Praetoria; we haven't seen all the zones in GR and how far Cole's protection extends)

While some may call his methods draconian, Nova Praetoria is definitely a utopia for its residents.

Cole does not define societal norms; society does. Cole enforces the law of Nova Praetoria. Law and societal norms are two different things. In most areas, "obey the law" is a large societal norm (though in some countries around our world... urgh), but many norms have nothing to do with the law, and as long as the resident's aren't violating Cole's laws, nothing happens to them.

'Should' and 'do' are different concepts. Also, for players familiar with the game, communicating strategy is rarely a necessity; not even remotely so in many cases.

Heroes can get the "Manifold Resonator", a temporary self teleport power (which also phases you for a short period after you teleport), from the mission "Stop the Council from stealing Rikti Technology" (Ashwin Lannister or Laurie Pennington, lv25-29). It has 10 uses, and is automatically removed when you return to the contact.

Villains can get "Nictus Shadow Step", a temporary self teleport power, from the mission "Retrieve Nictus from Council" (Dr. Shelly Percey, lv10-14). It lasts 2 hours, and is automatically removed when you exit the following mission.

Kids these days. Pah! At least Ice Control and Earth Control have real damage powers! Play an Illusion Controller for once!
