  1. I was just playing last night on a 7 man team with my BR/Dev, she was 14-15 running Flux's arc. I did not have the snipe yet and it was spreading like crazy. But even when running solo I haven't noticed much issues getting disintegrate to spread more often than not. Then again, I think the RNG in this game really likes me sometimes. I just picked up the snipe and will definitely be taking advatage of this information, especially since we have a brute and 2 scrappers to keep mobs away from me while setting up.

    Watching what it does to EBs/Avs with just a handful of slots and DOs I can't understand anyone not being impressed, even if ranged damage isn't your thing.
  2. Well, I will be sending any friends who start as F2P to this thread. All in all an enjoyable read and I especially like how you went out of your way with the defender entry to point out there is more to support than healing in CoH.
  3. I'm surprised you neglected to list Karma's KB protection global, useful to squishies and Fire/Dark armor. Hover, combat jumping, stealth, grant invisibility, invisibility, and weave all can take it.

    Recall Friend can take the universal travel sets, so you can get 20% slow resist or KP protection easily through it. Beyond that I'd say it is only situational in that you need at least one other person on the team to recall. Whether it's getting members to the mission faster, getting the team assembled at an objective for speed runs, or getting a downed player somewhere safe to rez, Recall Friend is quite useful.

    Beam Rifle/what?

    I played a BR/Dev/Munitions in Beta and have since re-rolled her on live. I had previous experience with AR/Dev, so I know the secondary quite well. I soloed well, although it was a better choice for me to keep the spawn size at 1, and up the difficulty. I was melting EBs just fine without build up.

    As DarkLordNecros said in his post, you want to focus on your BR blasts to make full use of disintegrate, so the more support-y aspect of devices works quite well. I also found personally that the new and improved gun drone helps with the lack of AoE power in the set. It would be nice if BR got extra damage to its snipe from Targeting Drone like AR, but that's hardly a make or break issue.
  5. There are 2 Crey hunts in Manti, the first is not zone specific, the other is specific to Crey's Folly.

    Not shafted? For years, my case over 6 years, we've payed for a mere 4 servers (or actualy 2, since 2 are in native language that majority of us dont speak at decent level), eventualy less support, news, communcation, Euro vs Dollar different (yup, from the difference i pay between my US and EU account, i can give you a full year play), the problems with the shop (EU vs US items, yet non refundable), the events, the giveaways, the ingame-meet'n'greet, was there ANY moment in CoH history that EU did get ONE single thing above the US people?

    Does it affect the game? Agree, it doesnt. Arent we getting shafted? You're totaly wrong in this. This is yet another blow in the face of Europe people pulling the short straw.
    All those things listed are you getting shafted, this is not, get over it.
  7. I'll preface this with I'm a NA player.

    In all fairness though to the EU players, why does it matter AT ALL if you log-in or global gets changed by the merger? All your characters will still be untouched, since the servers are joining the list, not being merged into an existing NA server. How does this seriously affect anything in the game?

    You're not getting shafted, hell it's not even a real inconvenience even, and most of you probably won't even be affected.
  8. I was just hoping an invasion event would come along. I know some of you may be bored and want it dropped, but come on, lots of us have characters stuck half way to a nifty accolade power. I know that people can get bored with repetition, but as has been said, it's not old hat to everyone. Besides I'd rather see more events added, or things expanded rather the the existing ones removed/replaced.

    Ignoring switching sides and Pretoria for the time being, Masterminds are a villain archetype. And doing something immoral/dangerous/evil is exactly the sort of thing a bad guy would do. Just look at the CoT and all their demons. Honestly if you have no issues with raising an army of undead, binding demons shouldn't by much of a moral issue.
  10. I was playing for several hours, just logged off(around 2:30 pm EDT). There was some issue with the global friends list, as in it wasn't even an option to pull it up.

    Villain contact in Grandville. (http://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Television) Has two of the best written arcs in the game.
  12. Sign me up for this.

    I've never had an opportunity to run a Hami raid period on any server, let alone my “home” of Infinity. Now, I don't know what to do, but I do have 4 plus years of playing experience playing and the ability to follow instructions (something that seems to be getting rare these days). So I would gladly help, even in just a cannon fodder capacity. Got to get that next damage badge anyway, right?

    And hey if any of my fellow Infinity-ites need some help on any other TF, GM, whatever, hit me up, I'm always willing to help. Sometimes I can even drag my wife along too.

    My global is @syntaxerror37
  13. What is wrong with you people? Seriously, I'm a badger and a year to get all the badges seems fine to me. Let's be honest if you could get all the badges in a month you would still be complaining it took too long. I've got plenty of non-50s to play while my main works on his day-job badges. Even If I chose to play only my main I can still rack up time at work, sleep, etc. it just will take me longer. So what? there are plenty of other badges I'm working on I've yet to "run out".

    In closing, quit whining.
  14. Hmmm, judging from the length of this thread I'd say their cheap marketing ploy is working as intended.
  15. Yes! Down with the cookie-cutters!
    Great guide! I'd team with you anytime.

    I love kicking [censored] with the "underpowered" AR/Devices blaster. Who needs aim? I've got Full Auto!
