Quote:I lol'd. I've done plenty of CoPs without nukes and many have been successful. Only a few of the initial attempts were failures and those were early attempts. God forbid we learn how to run a CoP without nukes.Originally Posted by ChaosAngelGeno
I had a feeling after reading the beta testing for the CoP Trial, that the trial itself was going to fall out of favor quickly after the initial runs upon the release of i19. There's still the problem of the AV attacking through it shield phase and rewards for it being pretty low. That being said, I'm sure glad I got my badges for the trial now.
I do think that provided that every person in the trial bring all of the Warburg nukes, that's 72 Warburg nukes, yes, they could cycle nukes and attack in such a fastion to take out the AV and the mobs in one, or more likely two shield phases. If this what the devs fear, well IMO those fears are misguided. In few PuG CoP's I have been in, I've brought Nukes once. Out of 24, maybe 7 at most had their nukes.
If the Devs can see some form of data about the CoP trials, that we the players aren't aware of, or they're monitoring the trials in someway to see that the majority of the CoP's are succeeding only by the use of Warburg nukes... well then doesn't that mean that the trial needs a fix? I can see the devs wanting something difficult accomplished without temps? and isn't that what Master runs are for? Being that this is more of a raid, than a Task Force, shouldn't there be a fix to give us the option?
I don't like the nerf, but it this case I don't hate it. Being that I can simply not do the CoP ever again, and so can the player base.
Also while were at it they should nerf hamidon. How dare they make us have team sets up that require certain ATs. I believe all mitos should be vulnerable to all types of attacks and Hamidon shouldn't attack. In fact just give me free stuff without having to try and learn. I just want to smash away on my Awesome button. Captain Dynamic ftw. -

I appreciate your support. I assure you, if I am "elected" (*scoff*) the Evil Vizier of Champion I will do my utmost to grind your hopes, happiness and dreams so thoroughly underfoot you will barely notice their absence.
As I said in my OP, I intend to increase princess-related schemes and reduce hero getaways. That is just the beginning, however. I am of the belief that stealing away princesses and stymying heroics is just the first step. Eventually, it is my goal to steal away hopes and dreams of entire nations. Ideally with the assistance of some ancient relic bent to my brutal suzerainty.
It is not my goal to have the people simply fear me. Fear is for brute dictators. No, I wish the people fat and stupid, to be satisfied sheep. Cheering for the wealth their leader brings to their city, unawares of my vice-like grip on his every move.
The intensity and enormity of my ancient and evil will shall cause the very air of my palace to catch in the throat. For my baleful gaze to be felt in every corridor.
And again, I got mad schemes on the princess. Girl be fiiiiiiiiine. Lack of genetic diversity ain't never look so good.
I assure you I will not be over thrown like other viziers. Through daily examples and hard-work all will be loyal and see that what they really enjoy is being told what to do. OBEY. -
* If one of your advisors asks, "My liege/lord/leader, he is but one man. What can one man possibly do?"
I would tell them what I will do to them if they ever dare question my orders again and finish with, "and that is what this one man will do."
* If your trusted lieutenant asks, "Why are you risking everything on such a mad scheme?"
I would inform them of my exact intentions and later that night before they had any possibly chances of betraying me I would have them executed just as they go for their hidden communication device. Extra points to the assassin if he kills them just as he is about to reveal the plan. Real evil lords never trust anyone.
* If one of your dungeon guards expresses concern over the conditions in the beautiful princess' cell?
Tell them not worry about it, otherwise he will be upgrading his own housing conditions to the tortur-er I mean, the basement rooms...that's what I meant...
* If the beautiful princess that you capture declares, "I'll never marry you! Never, do you hear me, NEVER!!!"?
I would explain to her every single detail of why she must or everyone that she knows and loves will be very much dead if she does not. After her tear-filled night of imagining these things she'll come around.
* If your are fighting with the hero/heroine atop a moving platform, have disarmed him/her, and are about to finish him/her off when he/she glances behind you and drops flat?
Using my super-human strength and cat-like grace I would wrench them up off the floor and use their own little plan to finish me off against them. Nothing says demoralizing the rest of the enemy with a good turn about.
* If after you've captured the hero/heroine, he/she pleads, "Before you kill me, will you at least tell me what this is all about?"
I would pretend to go into a monologue of my grand scheme but it's really just a ruse. The later half of the monologue will be me singing the theme song to the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air and then me promptly executing the hero as they lay in shock. -

I am afraid that while I admire your moxie, I cannot allow this.
I know not what feeble mind suggested it, but a Mayor-Vizier cannot be. One cannot be both the bumbling, powerless puppet and the scheming mastermind.
I would welcome your entrance into the world of Vizierdom, either as blithe puppet or fellow schemer, but the two roles cannot be the same man. Unless the man is schizophrenic.
To suggest otherwise is an affront to Viziers the world over and I am afraid I cannot allow it.
All glory, of course, to the Hypnotoad.
He wants our nomination he does! SILAS IS A BAD MAN! He wants our power!
Yo Gollum, I'mma let you finish but Horus had one of the best nominations of all time. OF ALL TIME. An' Silas be up in here tryin' to ruin that.
...huh? was I saying something? -

It has come to my attention that I have been nominated as a Evil Mayor-Vizier of Champion. I will humbly accept this nomination AND CRUSH ALL MY OPPONENTS BENEATH MY STEEL BOOTS OF TYRANNY after the bake sale for the local elementary school. Evil pies, evil cookies and evil cupcakes (thanks to Cherry) will be on sale. Pre-orders are accepted but the possibility of the money being embezzled is high. Purchases are mandatory otherwise the safety of your housing cannot be ensured. My running mate will be this fine upst-ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD!

Viscous, oily black tears that rolled down his cheeks before bursting into flame before they hit the ground.
Fiery tears that caused conflagrations larger and more ferocious than the worst bushfire. Tremendous rolling fireballs that roiled and boiled across the countryside, leaving a trail of destruction and Invalid Target Is Defeated in their blazing wake.
Punctuated by immense stentorian howls of triumph, howls that made the very air tremble and quake. Howls that resounded throughout every city and every wood, causing even the hardest of hood thugs to stammer "whuh whuh...shiiiiiyit who dat?!?" before scurrying for cover.
Scrapper tears. -
