This is what the padlock means.

On my Dual Blade stalker, I had the padlock on my costume that uses the Organic swords from the mutant pack. When I went into the costume editor, my swords were changed from the organic swords to scimitars. I scrolled through my weapon options and the organic swords were still there, so they either got renamed, or moved on the list.

Let me just say, that the Power Slide looks nothing, -nothing- like an ice slide. If you've not seen it, either find a video of it, or ask in your servers global channels if someone how has it, can demonstrate it for you so you can see what your asking for.

Not that I'm saying it's lame, I found a CE at a Big Lots for $10, and picked it up. I use it on occasion, but not that often at all. Your character stands somewhat like they do on the rocket board, but you stay grounded, and there's a purple mist that surrounds your lower half. Other than those animation details, it's exactly like Sprint.

I was in a VG on Freedom a while back, and when I used the VGs Vent, I swear one guy sounded like Vin Deisel, and another sounded like Kevin Smith. I never asked either of them, cause it's not my business, but I like to believe.

Were you involved in the lawsuit? Do you have the terms of settlement readily available to you? Do you have infallible proof that NO ONE, not one person or an entire company/corporation can file lawsuit against CoH and/or any of it's parent or subsidiary companies ever?

Cause I'd like to see that.

If I were you, I'd wait on buying GR because of I21. If you keep your second account subscribed, it'll be a VIP and get GR free. If you plan on letting it become a premium account, then it's a toss up, since we don't know the final prices yet for the licenses you could buy to effectively get GR.

Yes, you did. There is absolutely no reason beyond personal desire for you to soft cap ANY character, blaster or not. I have been on the Incarnate Trials multiple times. I've done them with blasters that don't have any defense who didn't die once, and I've them of tanks and scrappers that are soft capped over the standard 45%, who've died multiple times. It's not because I can't play tanks and scrappers(I play those more than anything else) but just the league dynamic led to different circumstances. (Of course I've had trials where blasters died and my tanks survive unscathed as well.)

If you want to rework your build, maybe use your second or third build to make a soft capped blaster you can... but that'll gimp your damage, which in my opinion, defeats the purpose of being a blaster.

Play your character the way -you- want to play him/her. Anyone who calls you a noob is not someone you should want to be playing with anyway.

With Primal Durray, Holds work well, but when you don't have that, it does end up being a game of chase with his teleporting all over the place. Keep a finger close to your "f" key so when you see him start to teleport, you hit that, and wherever he goes, you'll start to follow.

Also, necromancy is bad.

I'd like forum users to learn to search before posting.

So you're really that surprised that the system got broken when hundreds of people all log on, make new characters and buy all the new shiny things all at the same time? It's a beta, if you expect everything to be working perfectly aside from the "small bugs" that could be as simple as typos in the mission text, then you need to lower your expectations.

...you do realize that if all the new content was working properly... there wouldn't need to be a beta.

Hrm... websites... not live servers...

When I go to work, I have about 150 co-workers. Of those 150, only 1 other person shares my name, and they work a different shift than me, so there's no confusion there. However, with CoH which has over 100,000 subscribers, even spread out over the 16 servers(Though I play on Virtue, one of the more populated ones) we're dealing with thousands. As the resent stress test they did on Freedom with the Praetorian invasion, we know the servers can handle(Though lag) more than 4000 IIRC at one time. Of those possible 4000, there could easily be hundreds of people all named Jane, or John, or Sam, or Chris, or Ashley.

I kinda got that feeling from the first post, but this cemented it for me. Honestly... I'm still waiting for a question from the OP as all he/she has done is rant so far.

I like it! But, I wonder if the tech is there for a dead character to be able to taunt, and the duration of the taunt might be a little weird. Say like a tank dies and has this power go off, just how long are the enemies going to stand there staring at a dead body? Might seem a little odd.

I love this! It's almost like thematically someone calling out as they jump in front of a bullet "Avenge me!"

Depending on the debuff I do think this power could work. Like I could see a damage debuff, or a Resistance debuff both working.

This would be great for melee ATs, that when they rez, the fear effect gives them a few seconds to get their toggles up so that they don't get killed again before the animation of the rez finishes.

This one I don't see working quite as well as the others you've proposed, but I can't really think of some way to improve on it... for now.

This would be awesome, because the number one irritation I have with Self Destruct is when it misses. I could be surrounded by 10 mobs, hit SD, and I blow up, and only 2 take damage. Being able to increase the ACC of that power would make it much more usable.

My only question for you is, is this that way you'd want them to be tiered?

Tier 1 : Noble Death, Shrapnel
Tier 2 : Spectacular Return, Toxic Resurrection
Tier 3 : Immolation
