    How do you figure? I can't recall any Metropolis surrounding Springfield. Are you thinking of Guidopolis?

    Click on User CP and then scroll down and it will be at the bottom.
  4. A couple of weeks ago I got Two Miracle Uniques from Random Recipe Rolls in the same night. Which netted me close to 250 million for the pair.

    Thought it was funny how this level 45 controller now had more cash than any of my characters.

    Was able to donate 100 million to RO's 4th Anniversary prize money.
  5. Outside of a Hamidon raid just about everything any this game can be done by any hodge podge of AT's as long as everyone has a clue how to play.

    Did a Numina last week with 4 tanks, a warshade and a earth/storm controller. No real synergy on the team, no heals (I don't have O2), no buffs outside of Steamy Mist and the TF was a cake walk.

    Though I have been on some really awful AE PUGs where I can see they think they need a 'healer' just because they were so awful at the game.

    Not necessarily. There have probably been at least 10 added since then, I really don't know how many, but I know three were added just in the last two weeks.

    By the way, are they going to ever let me back in the Repeat Offenders ever?

    I got kicked out apparently for being a jerk, though no one here seems to think I am a jerk for some reason.
    I think that is something that is up to a vote of the leadership, which is made up of all of the SG leaders, which is a lot of people. Not sure how trying to get reinstated works. Probably a better question for Alty.

    I currently don't have a star in any RO group, I can't stay logged into one character, so they always lapse on me, auto demoted and I never get them back.
  8. Thanks PK!

    Still trying to figure out this newfangled forum.
  9. There is rep rankings? Can you see comments people leave you? I don't get it.

    I don't think you've even thought through what happens to Regen Aura (and don't some heals work off base HP, also?) if defenders get more HPs.

    A suggestion: put together The Defender Spreadsheet, along the lines of the ones Aracanaville and Starsman have done for damage mitigation and melee sets. Some things to remember: The Purple Patch (shortens duration and strength of debuffs); click w/ accuracy v. autohit click v. toggle debuffs; team size (a bubbler has an easier time keeping its ST buffs on a big team than a kin or empath do); team makeup (blasters benefit more from FF than ice tankers, for instance); interactions with blasts; teams with multiple sources of (de)buffs (i.e., the higher your damage multiplier, the more damage -resistance adds); time spent using primary v. using secondary; and lord knows what else.

    Put all this data into the blender and start pulling out tidbits like, "Empathy is OK / poor solo, but in a duo shines by turning one Blaster into Superman. Empathy is then near the top of the pack through teams of 5, but drops off afterwards as it becomes impossible to keep everyone in ST buffs." Or, "FF is poor solo, but does increasingly better as team size moves up (assuming everyone remains under Dispersion Bubble). Team makeup, however, affects how effective the bubbler is; on Tanker-heavy teams, FF ranks poorly, while on Blaster-heavy teams, FF shines."

    But, until that happens, what you're doing amounts to giving a tour of the Louvre ... without ever having stepped foot in the building. Sure you can pick up some tidbits here and there, but you won't have the same depth and breadth of knowledge that the tour guide who's been there for 20 years has.

    Just IMO and all that.
    Stop making sense. There is no room for that in this thread.

    Which is a shame because the community can't agree on a unified definition of farming, or infringement. So everyone will just flag whatever they personally feel is in violation even if it is not in violation. I know I could join 20+ AE missions and not pick out the farm, I don't know enough about them or have a clear definition of what one is to be able to flag something as inappropriate.

    But if being CoX farming police is what makes people happy then more power to them. Just seems like an incredible waste of time to me personally. To each their own.
  12. Never had a problem soloing Empaths, or being the lone Empath on 8 man Arena PvP teams. Empaths are just fine.
  13. It's not very exciting, but you can solo cranked up radios pretty easily. Just take the ones that are click the glowie or beat the boss. Stealth to the end, wipe out one group. Rinse and repeat. Pretty easy XP solo.
  14. People really take this game far to seriously.
  15. I was surprised on x2XP weekend I had a hell of a time getting on a PUG on Virtue. Had my tag up for well over an hour, asked in various server channels and no hits.

    The character does not have a odd name. I could only guess people saw the search comment of: "Earth/Storm" and didn't want any part of that. lol
  16. I will be 60 months in October. Took three months off to play WoW a few years ago.
  17. My Illusion/Kin has been one of my best solo'ers. As good as my Spines scrappers. 1-50 I never felt a lack of synergy.

    But I am almost always in melee and always the first to aggro a group. I use the fire epic though.

    One of my favorite controllers, can solo well, can tank, can stealth, can control, can buff. Great all around performer IMHO.
  18. I would have done the same thing, and have with my Bots/FF.

    I do the same thing with hurricane when things start getting bad and us squishes are getting hammered.

    Well I do have at least 1 50 of every Hero AT except PB/Warshades. I actually have more Controllers and Scrappers than Defenders.

    My last 50 was a tank, which I have two of at 50.
  20. My defenders have never felt weak. I think the damage is just fine, even when only using SO's on a Empath.
  21. What about an announcement for RO's newest and 35th SG?

    miracle are more expencive. one of them enchantments in miracle cost 100m, i cant afford that.

    I tryed to 6 slot fortitude but it gimped my recharge no matter how i twist it.

    i dont want to do damage at all, i dont have time to do damage when keeping people alive, so i might aswell skip most powers.

    Who says you have to be a average defender, if i want damage i log on my fire kin or blaster, i like to keep people alive so i want to make a defender that does excatly that.

    Can I team with you? I need to see the magnitude of suckage that would require a build like this to keep a team alive.

    I bet it would be funny to watch.
