I like this and hadn't thought about it before. I will use this on my SS/SR Brute. Gets a bit annoying keeping track of Hasten, Rage, and Practiced Brawler.

I was on a respec the other day. I tried several times to initiate conversation by sharing anecdotes... No luck. Everyone else seemed content to just stand there not saying a thing and wait for the next wave. One of the most boring respec trials I've ever been on.

Thank you for mentioning that before I was able to get in here and say the same thing.

Seriously though, both symbols are tied to something. In the case of villains, at least it's an entire organization with multiple sects and many different goals. In the case of heroes, it is one single man. If anyone should complain it is the heroes in this case.

But really, doesn't' matter. It's just a symbol that doesn't have any bearing on gameplay or RP or anything once you're in the game.

I used to order hot dogs from a place that would label the hot dogs with acronyms, except for the ones with Mustard, onion and chili which they labeled as E for everything (that's what reminded me of this anecdote). Anyway, so I used to get chili and cheese all the time. Then I started experimenting and getting various combinations. Chili, cheese and ketchup; chili, cheese and onions; those were my favorites. One time I ordered Chili, onions, cheese, and ketchup. They didn't write the acronym in the order that I said it thankfully or I don't think I'd have been able to eat it.

Speaking of the league chat chime, I wish there was an option to enable a notification sound for any channel you're in and set a different one for each. I've got enough tabs open that I can't see all my channels at all times and sometimes end up accidentally ignoring a good friend of mine. If I could assign a ding to my channels, that'd be awesome.

I never thought I'd say this... But maybe you should troll more? Imagine all the good you could do! lol

And I am glad to hear that it was a failed attempt at trolling rather than a serious concern. heh

But yeah, thanks again for the link. Don't know if I'll be able to correct my sleep phases any time soon, but it's good to know what the hell's been going on with me for the past decade.

Interesting, I just found out that I likely have delayed sleep phase syndrome and not chronic insomnia. Thank you very much for that link.

I'm fine with the constant night in game though. I just wanted to say thanks for that link.

Yup, I used to solo freaks on Unyielding with 5-6 people on the team with no problem well before IOs were introduced. That character now has maybe 5 IOs in her build, it hasn't really changed much since then.

Fire/Kin controllers are already killing machines at 50 with SOs, adding a tweaked out set-IO build is just icing on the cake of death (cake or death?).

Was going to quote the OP, but your post was much easier to trim down. I just wanted to touch on this point.

The Field Analyst mission sends you to Croatoa the same way the the Talk to Ms. Liberty mission sends you to Fort Trident. Some conjecture on my part here, but I think I have it all figured out... When they created Croatoa, they needed a Field Analyst for the zone so they copied and pasted the Field Analyst from Steel Canyon. I'm not going to bother getting screenshots, but if you have a minute go take a look at them both. They are identical. Same deal with Ms. Liberty, she got copy-pasted into Fort Trident. There does seem to be something special about the two of them though, since many other fedex missions don't send you to Fort Trident when you're to talk to a character who has been cloned there. There's probably an ID variable that got switched at some point. When I ran Twinshot's arc in Beta, it correctly said to go to Steel Canyon. All that has switched on live is the location that it tells you though. I have run the arc on live and, while it told me to go to Croatoa, I simply talked to the Field Analyst in Steel Canyon and everything worked fine. Same thing with Ms. Lib, you can talk to her AP version without issue.

So yeah, it's not *really* sending you to Croatoa; it just wants you to talk to the Field Analyst that is in Croatoa. He is the same one that's in Steel Canyon though. It does need to be fixed to point to the correct location though; it'd be nice if they fixed the Ms. Liberty one too.


And on topic... I haven't been able to bring myself to run anything past Dr Graves' first arc. It felt like it was written for a specific character to run, like it was a single player game with a predetermined protagonist that we had no say about. Twinshot's arc didn't do that too much; there were a few instances where I believe my characters would have reacted differently, but nothing so jarring as Dr Graves' arc.

Did you purchase the costume set, or just select some pieces while at the tailor and purchase those pieces? There are two ways to purchase costume parts; individually or as a set. If you purchased the pieces you used individually, then you will only be able to use those pieces on any of your characters. So if you made a female wearing Victorian boots and a corset and purchased those pieces, then you can make as many females wearing Victorian boots and corsets as you want. Those will be the only pieces unlocked for you account.

Either you have encountered a rather strange bug and should check with customer service, or you didn't actually purchase the full set.

It was mentioned during beta that the Awakened are our preview of Psionic Melee.

My mother has had this type of dream for years. She recently realized that she has sleep apnea . She woke up during one of her drowning dreams and found that she wasn't breathing in real life either. It seems that the reason for her having the dream was her subconscious mind reminding her that she can breathe.

So, yeah, it's a neat style dream to have; but you might want to get checked out.

As for me, I had a recurring dream when I was young. I won't bore you with the details, but the dream revolved around me needing to stop someone from ruining everything. I had this dream once a year for five years. The first time, the bad guy won and wrecked everything. Each time I had the dream, I stood up to the bad guy more and more until by the fifth year, I was flying around and super strong and totally kicked the bad guy's ***. Once I kicked his ***, I never had the dream again.

I still dream of flying on a somewhat regular basis.

My most interesting recent dream involved superpowers too. Somehow I had become a part of a family with ties to the fae. Half the family had ice-breath; the other half had fire-breath. (If you've ever taken a look at my character list, you'll be able to guess which side of the family I ended up on). The dream was very interesting. By the time it ended I was nearly sure that I'd be able to wake up and breathe fire, or at least burning steam. The ironic thing here is that with all the fire/ or /fire characters that I have, none of them actually have the fire breath power atm.
