During one day at the height of summer, six glittering starships appeared out of nowhere. Suddenly everything went dark. It was the curse of the evil monkey that eats cotton candy!
The people all fled in terror at the sight of the sticky-fingered monkey. It hurled large chunks of cotton candy at the innocent Omegatron Zeta Warbot, "Koo Koo Katchoo", who, caught unprepared, pulled up his iron underpants, and ran screaming into a brick wall.
Then the monkey laughed and said, "where's my punchline?" A man named Alfredo von Wigglestein appeared and said, "I think, therefore... I don't care. Now, you need to go to talk to the guy about registering for the special buns and thigh class. After all penguins have anurisms and I wear polyester thongs to school. Where was my jar of Honey Bees? Who will not drag my fat butt? Now what was the price of eggplants and bees again? I forget things quite quickly since I'm old. Although old is relative."
So then my sister Bruce bought a banana from a passing street vendor. He grabbed a dictionary and started to read aloud the definition for monkey curses. He then looked at the crumpled warbot, pointed and said, "Beware! Chaos is brewing beer!"
Then the warbot stood and drank beer.
Then my sister stripped naked and started to dance a sexy dance.
But the police helped her undress. Afterwards they ran in circles chasing Folonius while yelling the words to that pop hit polka song by the Andrews Sisters. That made Folonius roll out barrels of Rikti Monkeys. This proved problematic for the newly created government of the Rikti, for it had finally caged all of the barrel monkeys.
Lady Grey said, "I like to do weird stuff in the nude with the Rikti." So I took out my camera and filmed her from within her secret monitoring station. "I will never spy on her," said blpup pervertly as he passed out from poison. But just as he died, a passing noob stole his influence. Then burnt his body.
Soon the monkey scattered the ashes and ran home crying to mommy he'd been Riktirolled. The momma monkey ate Chaos Creator's little can of sausage to get even. Suddenly, the sausage regurgitated itself out of the monkey and said this, "Let my people go you jerk!" But then the Freedom Phalanx came and revealed that Chaos was happy. This surpised noone.
Then Chaos died a little inside. Later, he got on the interwebs,but got lag when he tried to look up naked sheep blowing on a kite. This saddened the chickens who wanted -

Quote:I never had any luck with soft capped fire/kin ... I usually run with 30% S/L defense and 68ish resist in smashing/lethal. It adds a little more meat to the fire/kin and if the recharge is fast enough, transfusion is up when you need it. I can go through lvl 52 maniac bosses on that build.Originally Posted by macskull

If you want a "no-holds barred" Fire/Kin build, you will take the Stone epic. If you sink enough inf into a Fire/Kin/Stone and play it well, it will be head and shoulders above Fire/Kin/Fire or Fire/Kin/Psi - softcapped smash/lethal defenses with Rock Armor and Weave, perma capped HP with Earth's Embrace, and a high-damage hold able to mez bosses in one go with Seismic Smash. Fissure is not the strongest APP attack available to Controllers but it's incredibly useful given its decent recharge time and chance for stun - slot a couple damage procs into it and go to town. -

Hello all,
I just came to the game from "WoW" and after 1 week of CoH I am having more fun then the last year of "WoW".
But I do have a few questions that I am hoping to get some help with.
I have decided on a Mind/Kin Controller. He is only level 14 and he is my highest level character, yeah a long way to go I know. I do have a few questions on the Main and Secondary that I have Chosen.
I have only found one guide to this build type (mind/kin)
http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=122388
It has helped a lot but the guide is almost 2 years old. I hope that the game has evolved in those 2 years and was hoping for a more current build and any help/comments on the ins and outs of the Mind/Kin choice. (is it just a bad choice on my part - and not played often?)
Will the lack of a pet for Mind be crippling at higher levels and possibly PvP?
I Think I will just use Hover as my travel power and boost the speed with siphon speed. Is this a decent choice for travel or will I just be lagging behind the group and become a nuisance.
How does a newb level - I have seen many people door sit to level and that either takes high level friends or lots of Influence to pay for the PL. I know no one in the game and have little influence so that will be tough for me to do.
Do I just go grind mobs until 20 or so until I get speed boost? (which seems everyone wants for groups)
Server - I choose the Freedom server because it looked to have a larger population. I am not sure how the server stability is in CoH - Is Freedom a good choice stability and playability wise or should I change servers before I get to a decent level and regret my choice.
Any and all comments will be appreciated. -

This build is for general missions only. I very rarely join farming teams.
If you are going to be fighting up close and next to the tank, I'd suggest take tough/weave. If you are going to be more controllery using smoke, flashfire, cinders, etc skip them. It's three extra powers you can take. -
Quote:Neg, if you want to skip FR, then skip it. Honestly, I don't see the issue in skipping it since you are probably going to be using fire cages. The other powers in storm offer -def and -res, the only other thing FR will offer is KD and slow which will be negated my fire cages anyways.Originally Posted by Neg_rogue
Seriously? I used TT on my Emp/DBlast defender as often as I could whether it was crucial to use it or not. It was arguably my favorite power in the Dark Blast set, mainly because it was so satisfying to use.
Those two powers IMO butt heads enough to skip FR if it clashes with how you want to play your toon, and I see no reason to debate the fact that those two powers conflict.
As for buffing, I play controllers almost exclusivly, and while I do have some that buff, I buff very little, and usually only when asked. Most of the buffs I take as a controller are PBAoE buffs which I use without saying I'm using it. I'm of the mind that if you want to play a serious buffer, then play a defender. I have the same viewpoint on debuffs to though.
Understand though that people who are making suggestions about your style of playing are just that, suggestions. Take them seriously, or take them with a grain of salt. While I agree buffing/debuffing can be boring sometimes, it can make a team all that much better if all the tools in your aresonal are used. -
Quote:Assuming a controller has to buff is foolish. I play fire/kin's without taking SB, Ill/Emp without taking heal other or clear mind, and FF without taking the single target shields. If you want a buff bot, invite a defender. I'm able to plow through things as a controller as if I were a tank, and anyone that is able to do that is much more useful than a buff bot.Originally Posted by Enantiodromos
a) is nonsense. I said nor implied that. b) is true. If you don't want to buff, it's silly to pretend you want to play a controller, and given that, nobody can take requests about power performance from you seriously in good faith.
There's a whole class of control + damage, if you have access to redside.
Don't forget, the defender sets debuff as well as buff. You don't need single target buffs to be an acomplished controller. -

Yes Early, warm milk is underrated, but it has never really beguiled me. I much prefer natural herbs to medicinal herbs, as people can sometimes be intemperate in the amounts of medicinal antidotes they take to ward away the ailment of insomnia. I find Chamomile tea quite a paradisiacal solution to any sleeping problems I may occur.

The problem is the Farmers and the Power Levelers.
If there was zero xp earned in AE and no item drops but only tickets earned then AE would be as it was intended. As long as you can PL and earn millins in inf the farmers will rule.
Right now the bottom is dropping out of the inf market if the spam is any indication you can get 100 mil inf for $3.27 with delivery in less that 10 mins and an unlimited supply.
I bet the Farmers cant thank the Devs enough for AE.
I see nothing wrong with farmers and power levelers. The problem is people trying to stop other people from playing a game the way they want to. XP will never be removed from AE, you can cry till your blue in the face that you want it removed, but it will never happened. They spent thousands (maybe more) of dollars putting out a new box set to advertise AE as an alternate leveling system to regular content. They would lose all that advertising money if the changed it.
You are associating farming and powerleveling to gold farming, and they are not the same. A casual player can powerlevel or farm if they want to, and it doesn't make them a gold farmer.
As for making AE it's own zone, it's been suggested, and it probably won't happen. People will just exit the door to whatever zone is the most active (Atlas and PI) and ask for members for an AE farm/team. It may spread the calls for AE teams to PI and reduce the broadcasts in Atlas a little but it won't effect it much.
Enter the AE building while your in Atlas, and look out the windows. What do you see? Now go to Steel Canyon and look out the windows. Then Talos. You see the zone. That would have to be altered significantly if AE were made into it's own zone. My guess is this will stay the way it is. Even removing AE from Atlas or Mercy Island would put a hinderance on "Leveling from 1 to 50 on an alternate system". -
Quote:I have experienced this problem in the past where I click the auctioneer and it takes about a minute for the interface window to pop up. Just don't go clicking all over the screen while it's doing that cause windows (Vista only?) will think it crashed and go bonkers.Originally Posted by The Seasoness
I know myself and many other players often have problems opening Wentworths, usually with losing the mapserver. The real cause of this problem is the fact that when opening Wentworths it begins with a default search for every item in the game, and cross-server at that. Opening up a window with such a massive search crashes the game for many players and they are often unable to use Wentworths until they relog and try again two or sometimes three times.
I'd suggest that Wentworths opens with an empty search to ease the workload. Afterall, how many people actually search through a list of every item in the game when there's a list of search filters just an inch away? Other games with Auction House features manage to make the auction house open on an empty window and only have items appear whenever the player initiates a search, why can't CoX? -
This one is my favorite ....

No go. She happily spams attacks like mad and refuses to buff.
*Once* in a while she SBs at the beggining of the mission, once in a while she FS', but all of it very rarely.
I tried different combos of agressive and defensive, of customizing and standard, of giving lots of attacks and all the kin secondary to a minimum of powers. Nothing has worked, she happily spams attacks and refuses to buff.
Any one has managed to make NPCs work lately?
their is an NPC under the civilian tab that you can select as an ally that only does holds, and deals no damage. Most of the holds are sleep, but if you get about 10 of them following you around, it really helps. -
