Still, it's too time-consuming. I exemp a lot so I IO my toons with enhancements around level 35. It's not worth it to me, in terms of time spent, to IO them all over again once they hit 50. I've only done that for.... 4 toons.

I know. They're mostly stupid names. I'll admit, though, I could see the appeal if three players were on a static team and wanted 3 toons named Good, Bad and Ugly.

P.S. Wow, he's had 3 posts modded in this thread already.

Please do not link to the Wikia site. It is dramatically out of date and has been know to be infected with malware.

Regarding your issue: It will actually let you start 45-50 arcs? Or will it not let you start ANYTHING? Have you confirmed that you are not in task force mode or AE mode?


P.S. Does account status (i.e. Free/Premium/VIP) have an effect on doing Flashbacks? I don't recall any mention...

Yes.

I certainly remember it.


It may have to do with individual computer settings (i.e. particle count or something). I definitely remember the cards disappearing in a burst of sparkles when they hit the ground. I'll have to check and see if it still does it. I haven't changed any graphics settings lately.

Save it for a later character who DOES have health or endurance problems?

And I could say *IF* he's accessing Pirate Bay.
You still seem to be suggesting some connection between wikipedia and the CoH wikia site.

I believe these statements are directly contradictory.
The increase in prices for 'junk' purples will be due to people converting them to better purples which will INHERENTLY drive down the prices of the 'good stuff'. As long as there is any significant pricing imbalance, after taking into account the cost of the converters, both sets of prices will tend to be driven closer to each other.

Too much work for little benefit *TO ME*.
Once my toons hit 50, they get semi-retired. Only a handful of them (3-4 out of 28) get significant play. Those are already IO'ed/purpled. Everyone else gets IO'ed ONCE at around level 35 and it's just not worth the effort to redo the build once they hit 50.

So, I only spend maybe 300-500 million per toon. It takes me probably 3 months to go from 1 to 50 with a new toon (due to playing the aforementioned handful of 50's). I'm already generating inf WAY faster than I'm spending it.

So..... another inf-making opportunity..... <yawn>


P.S. I'll reiterate my longstanding gripe - we need more purple sets. If we got purples for defense, resist and heal I would definitely re-visit some of my builds.

He said WIKIPEDIA. Wikipedia has nothing to do with CoH or the old copy of the ParagonWiki site.

Yowch!

If you can see Manticore, he can see you.
If you can't see Manticore, you may have only seconds left to live.

Find a better team. I like that TF a lot. You fight in the ships, on the ships, on a huge floating fortress, in Talos, in the ruins of Skyway. Just a ton of new maps there.

Fixed that for you.

It shouldn't take anywhere near that. I've run 3 instances with ultra mode settings without issue. The only issue is if I try to have multiple characters zoning simultaneously. This system WAS high end when I built it in September 2010.

I think it's difficult to draw a clear line between content designed "to beat the players" vs content that is simply harder. There are multiple ways to make it harder. One way is just 'more of the same' - this gives us Reichsman with 227,000 hit points and an attack that stuns tanks.

Another way is puzzles; specific steps to solve a problem. An example is defeating the monsters in Mother Mayhem's path to slow her movement and make her less resistant to mez in the MoM trial. The downside of puzzles - well, ONE downside - is that plenty of people will immediately, scornfully, label them as "gimmicks" and regard them as inherently bad. Of course, another downside to puzzles is that the encounter goes from seemingly impossible to easy once enough people know the 'trick' (and are coordinated enough to act on the knowledge).

Nope. I've accessed Wikipedia on many occasions will running CoH. I've PROBABLY even done it while running two instances of CoH but I'm not certain of that. But there's definitely nothing about CoH or Wikipedia that they INHERENTLY interfere with each other.

Well, I'll often see things I'm doing interfere with CoH. Running a multi-megabyte download in the background will give me serious lag until it's finished. Wikipedia just doesn't take that kind of bandwidth, though.

I wonder:
1) What browser are you using and do you have any plug-ins installed? Maybe something in the browser is messing up your connection in general and CoH suffers along with everything else.
2) Can you access other sites while running CoH? Particularly something requiring more bandwidth, like Youtube, for example.

But you're like the Lady Gaga of CoH - everyone knows who you are.... well, maybe not like Lady Gaga. She has more than one outfit.

LOL, not gonna happen when replying to one of your posts.

Fixed that for you.

So now you're putting your interpretation of the situation on someone else, and then blaming them for it. Certainly not mean, per se, but definitely not a classy move.
