  1. <shrug> Your assertion flies in the face of established fact.

    Didn't you say that you are going to aim for 1 trillion inf? Once you hit that target, are you going to give some to me?

    um, Microsoft does it. So does just about every other software company.

    Not yet. When we got the super packs, the prices on LotG +recharge and Miracle +recovery took a couple of days to crater.
  5. The best server is the one I'm on. The name of the server doesn't even matter; it's home.

    Since you mention population as a consideration (and I didn't see anyone else mention this), the servers are sorted by 'load'. The last server that you logged in to will be listed at the top. After that, they are sorted by 'server load' with the heaviest load at the bottom of the list.

    Note:
    1) The list exceeds the window size so you have to scroll to see all servers.
    2) Server load is not directly mapped to server population, but it's a reasonable proxy and the only metric we can see.

    Well, to be fair, an illusion controller can have 6 pets. Three 'types' of pets, but 6 out at once. I can see how someone might be misled.
  7. Does the store interface list the mastermind AT even if you can't buy it? If so, items that are on sale for a limited time generally show a countdown (in hours) of how long they will be on sale. This doesn't directly help your issue, but at least you'll KNOW how long it will be on sale.

    How close are you to being Tier 5? At that point, you permanently unlock access to masterminds and controllers.

    Really the only thing better that could of been added was voice overs.
    I agree on the quality of the story but please, no voice-overs. Ever.

    Well, as I noted up-thread, I have a ton of powers in keybinds to free up tray space. Despite that, my main character uses 6 trays.
    Without logging in to check, I would estimate that he has 4 open slots across all six trays. And the main reason for those is so that temp powers in the iTrials have a place to drop so I don't have to search my powers window.

    Based on a post from Zwill, it sounds like Beast Mastery.
    Also, based on a red name post from a week or two ago (can't remember who), Marketing likes to "pace" the releases of powersets. So I think we won't get Staff at the same time.

    On a side note, this TF is one of the two places on blue side to get the Demon Slayer badge for defeating Baphomet (Circle of Thorns AV). Overall, this TF has 5 AV's.

    You can also start task forces / strike forces and trials. So, to me, the ability to jump sides *IS* enough incentive since I do a lot of TFs/SFs and trials.

    Just to reiterate the blindingly obvious: whether side-switching is sufficient reward is ENTIRELY subjective opinion.
  17. The invention license is at Tier 7 so, yes, you can get purples.

    Except... I never bought the shirt. I don't like it. I specifically *only* bought top, mini, heels, jeans, and hair.
    Interesting. I bought piecemeal also. I bought the metallic top and skirt, jeans, heels *AND* the casual shirt. So I bought the two items mentioned in the bug and I still have the heels. (I logged in and made a costume after I saw this thread and I still have the heels.)

    Anything that is common across all characters should be in a keybind to free up tray space.

    err... no. The author cited multiple examples with him standing on firm ground and doing it incompetently. Okay, so he sometimes has better form. You'd expect the worlds greatest archer to have excellent form every time because it would just come naturally (excluding the falling off a building backwards, of course).

    So you feel all warm and fuzzy about the changes and I feel they dug their heels in and grudgingly changed it when people saw how terrible it is.
    Wow, someone is throwing a hissy fit. She states the BLINDINGLY OBVIOUS and you have to go postal about it? Loads of people said the devs would be waiting and datamining. Chimps that had been dropped on their heads could have figured this out.

    AAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!
    With 200 million influence, you can buy a *STACK* of those IO's. Do *NOT* spend Alignment Merits on cheap junk like that! I put in low bids and let them sit. I have DOZENS AND DOZENS of -knockback IO's in case people in my SG need them. I think my main SG has 40 or so in one of the bins.

    The WST XP bonus is, in fact, a value between 1/3 and 1/2 of a full level; i.e. 3-1/3 to 5 bars of XP. The value is specifically set for each TF or trial based on the length/difficulty (i.e. the devs picked a number for each one). Character level is irrelevant to the calculation; 5 bars is 5 bars whether you are level 20 or level 45.
