    Wait, are we talking in-game kittehs or RL kittehs...?
  2. I suppose I could go browse 78 pages of beta threads to find the answer...

    Nah, I'll just ask here.

    Wull, no, but maybe instead of successfully invading, conquering and occupying the ENTIRE United States, maybe the camn dommies just invade, conquer and occupy a small part of the United States?

    Like...ummm, maybe ... Pocatello, Idaho?

    Instead of "Wolverines!" it'd be all "Spuds!!11!!" and "Taters!!11eleventeyone!!11!!"

    The DPRK could pull off Pocatello, Idaho, rite?

    And, as for what the rest of the US would be pre-occupied with such that they let the DPRK occupy Idaho?

    Wull, they'd be doing what they always do when nothing exciting is going on, watching American Idol....

    Several alts used the power, then I logged out last night. Today, when I logged in, the power was still "recharging" and showed as though I had just used it. Sure enough, about 27 minutes later, it finally recharged and was available for use again.

    I've also noticed that if a team member drops, the game knows someone is missing, but does not know what the missing AT and power sets are. So the game creates an extra dopp of another toon.

    Also, sometimes, with newer powersets, the dopps have access to tier nines somehow.

  10. Almost every StJ character I see is a scrapper, is it just that good on a scrapper? Or is it b/c the AoE is too weak for a brute or tanker?

    As for the armor set, I like WP due to it's "set it and forget it" nature, but is there another armor set that goes better with StJ?

  12. I'm not exactly sure what the fourth slot in Numina's does. What does "6% Enhance (Heal)" mean? Does that affect Regen? Or does that only affect powers that actively heal like say Dull Pain (self only) or Radiant Aura (self and others)?

    I've got 3 Numina's each in Fast Healing, RttC, Health and PhysPerf, just wondering if I would get any benefit from adding a fourth.

    Edit: According to Mids', adding a fourth Numina increases Regen. Is that correct?

    Any time an incarnated character defeats an enemy who cons higher than gray, that enemy has the potential to drop an Incarnate Shard. [Exception: enemies defeated in the new Dark Astoria drop Incarnate Threads instead of Incarnate Shards.] Even if the enemy is lower than level 50. For that matter, even if the incarnated character is exemped down to less than 50.

    For instance, if Emerald Lass was running a Posi TF and exemped down to level 15, the enemies could still potentially drop Incarnate Shards.

    Now, in this case, since Numina is the Weekly Strike Target, completion of the TF will also award a Notice of the Well Incarnate Component.

  22. D'oh! I forgot that the FF Proc could go into Foot Stomp! Thanks for the replies.
  23. I've got an Inv/SS tank with a full Hecatomb set in KO Blow.

    It's easy enough to quantify the Hecatomb proc:

    Per Mids, the Hecatomb proc has a 33% chance of adding 107 pts of Negative Energy damage. Which averages out to (107 divided by 3 = ) about 35.67 pts per use of KOB. So, over the course of a minute it would add:

    60 / 7.64 (recharge time of KOB) = 7.85 x 35.67 = approx 280 pts of extra damage over the course of a minute.

    As I said, the Hecatomb proc is easy to quantify; the FF proc, not so much.

    The FF proc has a 10% chance of firing per use. When it fires, it provides a 100% increase in global recharge for only 5 secs.

    Now, my current recharge time on KOB is 7.64 secs, which comes from:

    Rech-KOB = 25 (KOB's base recharge) divided by (1 + 1.375 [my global recharge] + .8993[recharge from Hecatomb]) = 25 / 3.273 = 7.64 secs.

    Damage done over the course of a minute = 60 / 7.64 = 7.85 * 330 (KOB's damage with Hecatomb with no proc) = 2591 pts of damage.

    Now if the FF proc has a 10% chance of providing a 100% recharge boost, i guess that averages out to a 10% recharge boost overall. Which would change the 3.273 in the above equation to a 3.373, which would lower KOB's recharge time to 7.41 secs. Which should change the damage over the course of a minute to: 60 / 7.41 = 8.097 * 330 = 2672 pts of damage.

    That's only about 80 pts of damage more than Hecatomb with no proc. Of course, that's only 80 pts of damage from KOB; but since the FF proc is a global recharge buff, it would affect all my attacks. But if I'm only getting an extra 80 pts out of KOB, I find it hard to believe that Jab, Footstomp and the others would get much more. I doubt they would come close to the 280 extra points of damage per minute that the Hecatomb proc would generate.

    Teal Deer: what do you all think?
  24. I'll be there:

    @GATE-keeper: Olivia Neutron-Bomb (Rad/MM Blaster)
  25. Thanks everyone, got it to work!

    Here goes, nothing fancy, just functional:

    My main toons are on Infinity, but this is the base for my alts on Exalted. I'd guess I converted about 1.1 bill inf into prestige to get this. I hardly ever actually play on Exalted.

    I could easily have dropped the number of teleporters, but decided to keep no more than 4 zones per telepad. Otherwise I would have had huge gaping holes in the big room.

    Overall layout:

    This is the 8x12, but I could have just used the 8x8. Originally I had two more 2x2 Teleport rooms, but I was able to delete those two rooms.
    High Floors (Hirano Wood Planks); High Walls (Hirano Wood); Low Ceilings (Hirano Wood Grid); Primary Color: Pale Yellow; Secondary Color: Pale Blue

    Seekret entrance room:


    Infirmary (Inspiration Collector has all Tier 3s. I 'sploited helz out Inner Inspiration.)


    Power Room:


    Control Room:


    Teleporters to: Co-op and Hazard Zones (New DA; Pock D; RWZ; Crey; Eden; TV; Echo DA; Boom; Striga; Hollows; Perez)


    Dept of Labor says we gotta have a break room! Devs, why can't we have vending machines (I've seen them on instanced maps)? Oh, and how about refrigerators, too?


    The rest of the teleporters



    The rest of the Teleport room is set aside for meeting space, work stations and records storage.
