    Running the ITF

    Alas, my Peacebringer is on Virtue, which doesn't seem to be on your list.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Let me know when and where you plan on doing it, and I'll see if I can join you. I have several characters on Virtue that can do it (though they are not all level 50's).

    Ice/Ice Tank
    Earth/Earth Tank
    Grav/Rad Controller
    Earth/Kin Controller

    I think I even have a lvl 37 or 38 Stalker, if you need Stealthiness. ;-)

    Hi Hercules.

    I still haven't gotten to run the STF on any of my characters at all

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I edited your post to match what I've experienced. The only character to ever even get asked to join one is my Tank, and the second question they always ask (after "Are you interested") is "Are you a Stone Tank?". I say "No", they say "Nevermind."

    Same goes for the villain side. My 'main' level 50 there for a long time was my Robots/FF MM, and I couldn't land on the LRTF if my life depended on it.

    Aye - I'd like to have a Panacea Unique someday, but I'm not going to plan on having one.

    I'll certainly Respec if I ever get one though ;-)

    And here's mine! Not to steal thunder of course. Just so I don't go and make a dupe thread. >.>

    Aeka the billionaire!

    Of course.. this wasn't made with marketeering. I did it the hard way, I actually worked for all of this money, though of course I still sold everything I got on the market, so it's still relevant. Somehow, my earning it this way makes me feel more accomplished, but I know you guys must be shaking your head at me right now!

    [/ QUOTE ]

    If you think these guys don't 'work' for their Influence, you don't really follow what they do or how they do it.

    Oh considerably worse. Because when pressed Jranger made sense She just *kept posting* apparently for the sake of posting.

    She was like the MA baby of the forums.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    It had a purpose: To lobby for animated hair. In every forum. In every thread. In every post.

    That was put an end to even on the EU forums. (Remember, there's now a 'no lobbying' clause in the forum policy manifesto.)

    It's not like we don't have worse here. From what I've seen, they're getting the short end of this deal. And that's coming from me, a 'Mer'kan.

    Meanwhile, there are several posters over there I'm looking forward to regularly interacting with. They're extremely knowledgeable of the game, wryly witty, and quite erudite. It's like getting several more mes.


    And if anyone's worried about name clashes... you can search the EU board.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I read those boards for a long time, when my work once blocked the main COH Forums. I agree, there are a lot of interesting characters and knowledgable players there, and it will be fun getting to know them.

    I think I may change back to my 'original' CoH forum name, since I just changed to HeyTiny to have it as a Global name.
  8. My Ice/Ice (on Virtue) doesn't have Tough or Weave, and does just fine, even on big teams. I don't feel weak at all. AE missions? Thse can get hairy - but they are not the baseline you should judge against.

    Post your build, let us see what you are seeing.
  9. I keep both, and have no problem with building Fury (unless the Masterminds are hogging the Aggro - *shakes metal fist*).

    Take both, Ditch the Clap.
  10. I wondered why all those ***********'s I had up suddenly sold.

    Since changing you colors will be -20% damage how many of the non-carebears will actually do this?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    That 20% is a maximum value. Remember, it scales depending on how far you deviate from the correct color.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    You are misleading them with this statement, you forgot to tell them the correct color is NOT the base one all start with and they have to guess what the correct color is. Imagine my surprise while playing mega-closed-beta and find that the "correct color" for dark melee was bright pink.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Well, I know someone who's not getting into any more mega-closed-beta-tests, Mr. NDA breaker!

  12. It's just going to have 1 Accuracy and the Call of the Sandman: Chance for self heal proc in it anyway. Saves me all the slots I'd need to use make Boxing Worthwhile.

    None of the Patron powers really WOW me (I like the looks of the MU Mastery stuff though), so I don't mind losing the one power selectio, if it gets me Tough and Weave.

    No, it's from The Question, when he appeared in the Justice League animated series. Great version of the character.

  15. Thanks! Mrs Tiny and L'il Tiny have plans to entertain me that day. ;-)
  16. I need to find something else to work on now .. I'll just let those recipes .. sit for a while. I'm priced below 75 million, at least ;-)

    Now you might ask about the title, but I was reading alot of the other posts and reading comments on how influence's in-game worth has plummeted.

    So I'm in the AH just checking my sales and a toon I teamed with once, but remembered me asked " Can you do me a favor and give me 300-400 mill so I can IO out my blaster?". Now when he asked for a favor I'm thinking ok he wants to do a inf xfer or he's a little short for some recipe. No, and he was serious. I had to explain that 300-400mill is not a favor and he needs to ask someone that's closer to being a friend than I am.

    Geesh, remember when you could just give a guy a couple lvl 50 SOs for them to sell and you were the best thing since sliced bread.

    Out of curiosity, why charged brawl? In my ele/inv I basically replaced charged brawl with Boxing. Skipped the power, took havoc punch + boxing + chain induction + thunder strike + lightning rod and am debating fances/lighting + ball lightning.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I don't have the numbers in front of me, but as far as I can tell it's moe personal preference. Charged Brawl has 2 kinds of damage, plus it's a fast recharging attack I can use to build Fury. Plus, it's another attack I can slip a Call of the Sandman: Chance for self heal proc in ;-)

    In my build, I take Boxing or kick, and then never use them anyway. They don't even stay in the tray, normally. I certainly won't slot them. Your mileage may vary, but to me, a Primary or Secondary power is superior to a 1st tier pool power.

    "Level 50 Boss AE team lfm Tanker and Controller" - that sort of thing.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Doesn't that usually mean they are looking for a Stone Tank and a Pocket Kin?

    slotting health

    Higher HP gives you better regen in itself, so if forced to choose I prefer more HP's - but I tend to slot for both on my Tanks and my one Brute.

    However - I think the difference is ... what you Prefer.

    Don't feel you have to have some Perfect Optimal Slotting in order to succeed. Which do YOU want? Pick one, and go for it.
  21. I tend to Frankenslot a bit, but also go for sets that give me early set bonuses I desire. 2 of this set and 2 of that set, plus 2 of that set. I get the slotting I want, plus some of the set bonuses.

    Rare is my character that is 4, 5 or even 6 slotted with the same inventions set.

    This gives a cross-faction market, keeps the RPers happy, and provides an extra Inf-sink, and one that people will FLOCK to. It's win-win-win!

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Other than competition being spread out over 3 markets instead of 2 and everyone under level 35 being blocked out you are right.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    There's a totally simple fix to that. Once DJ Zero in Pocket D sees how well the guy in Cimerora is doing, he sets up his own 4th market, not linked to any of the other 3. He also only pays in his own new currency, ZeroClix.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Then the Rikti can open one in the War Zone, and they would have a 5th market, not linked to the other 4 - and they would have a new currency called "GuhR'eenbax" that you could only spend there.

    T'uff Luh'k's Salvage:Recipe Purchase point

    Owned and managed by the renegede Rikti T'uff Luh'k (and his partner Nah-T'Nuff), this ruthless negotiator will deal with anyone from any faction.
  23. Random Rolls lend themselves to my Alt-itis (can't play one character long enough to build up many merits) and my general impatient nature. If I manage to get over 40 I always end up doing a random roll.

    I just can't help myself. The only way I can put it off is if I'm 'close' to another roll.
