Now I've made two stalker builds so far, and I must say that the survivability of those two toons is astonishing. They have better Defense/Resistances than most brutes, and dish out more than reasonable amounts of damage.

Fact is, I find the Stalkers to be one of the best archetypes in the game.
So let the trolling begin and someone tell me what the problem is here.

I can post those builds if someone says I'm on crack.

Thanks.

If we can have VIP servers please make one female only.

Thanks.

I've also heard (but this is more hazy and what I'd really like good confirmation on) is that all the Power Pools will be getting the "Pick Power 3 at lvl 4 while ignoring the first 2" treatment. Is this true as well? If so, does it apply to Epic Pools?

Man, I'm hoping! Can't wait to say goodbye to Boxing

Not to mention killing off someone with a TF gives the devs an excellent opportunity to include a newer, updated TF in it's place.

Before I even read that, when we were talking about the galaxy makeover in a global the other day someone mentioned APs music, and how it would be a tragedy if they ever dared alter it....and apparently...they're going to ?

We are told that the medical teleporter is "the only reason this city is not overrun." Well, with as often as I faceplant, I can see the point. But supposedly, all heroes are on this system, to prevent anyone from becoming Totally Dead.

The way the medical transporter system is described, it sets up problems for the notion of anyone actually dying and staying dead. There have already been such problems, as I shall describe in the following two spoilers, and then I shall pose my questions:

***SPOILERS START****

In one of the arcs, a transdimensional visitor never bothers to hook up with this system so that they are able to expire heroically and dramatically, but no explanation is given for why they failed to do so.

In the last issue of the CoH comic, most of the Freedom Phalanx finds that they, ahem, need a rez, which conveniently arrives, but nobody triggers the medical teleporter. No explanation is given that I recall, but a lot of characters have a lot of bad dialogue, the FP decides it stinks at fighting Rikti but are still a Swell Team and Synapse gets the Top Dog badge. It was a Very Special Episode. Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.


****SPOILERS END*****

So the questions are:

1) What explanation will be given for whoever of the Surviving Eight loses the adjective "Surviving" as to why they did not get medically teleported?

2) Will the explanation be, to use the most delicate term possible, "problematic with its credibility within CoH lore"?

From what I've read it has a combo system, but is different from the Dual Blades combos.

I can't wait for this! And here I was happy as can be to be getting Battle Axe, War Mace, and Energy Aura!

Scrappers! Very soon we will be dispensing some sweet, sweeeeet Street Justice!

You have a perfectly good forum, and in game events where these could have been handed out.

EDIT - Thanks to all who gave the idea of creating a fake account in the name of one of my toons (and a fake email account too). I know have a code. And I feel less dirty than I end up feeling at the end of a Friday night.

This thought came to me while I was carrying some LotG Rech IO's from Fort Trident to WWs and watching Atlas broadcast. It is a never ending stream of power level advertisements and requests. While I have no issue with people choosing to use the AE to power level their toons, I do not think that this is the first side of the game new players should be exposed to. Not to mention that if I understand the free player access correctly, free players can not join AE teams. Imagine how frustrating that would be. You load in to the first zone and find that you can not participate in 90% of the teams being formed. Remove AE from Atlas Park and the power levelers can move their operations to Steel Canyon (which has better facilities anyway with the university crafting tables right next to WWs.)
