    Hopefully they will fix the crazy base lag that started after the first shutdown today.

    This will be live when Beta comes up tonight (fingers crossed, knock on wood, spin around in a circle and spit over your left shoulder).

    Nice

    I think this is all that matters at this time; The head Dev loved the new spike look so I doubt it will go away but atleast now they look more mystical.

    Edit:

    I would have loved to see Blast_Chamber's designs in game but once the boss decides on something all we can do is hope for a compromise and I think we got that.

    Thanks for all the new info; I might have to go back and decide if I want to keep certain powers selection or not(Thematic reasons only).

    As for using the confuse powers, I did have them when I was leveling up but removed them @50 respec because I mostly just use him for gm and incarnate trials (which mobs don't seem to last very long anyway) but again I might have to rethink this.

    Thanks

    As a result, you may be experiencing intermittent outages and may be unable to access our North American and European City of Heroes websites.

    Please note that our Going Rogue websites and Official Forums will remain unaffected by the maintenance, and you be able to access them normally.

    We will keep posted on our forums if anything were to change during the maintenance.

    Thank you all for your understanding and patience

I'm not usually playing at this hour, so I'm not accustomed to this.
    Correct; usually they are done in that 2 hour window but sometimes it goes over.

    I hope one of the updates they do to the website today is fixing the server status page

    Update:

    http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showt...98#post3783298

    We have been made aware that this maintenance period will run longer than expected. At the current time we do not have a new Expected Finish Time. We will provide a further update if this changes. We thank you for your patience and apologise for any inconvenience.

    Thanks for showing me that build although your regen is almost double of mine it uses powers I would most likely not pick for my self.

    I do appreciate it because it gives me a comparison for the other numbers and mine seem to be pretty close.

    I was trying to get as much +end/ end reduction and recharge so I can use as many powers as possible.

    The powers I have are the ones I would like to keep; I am just trying to improve his play.

    This is the build I came up with. Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks

    Like Yoda famously said, "You must unlearn what you have learned."
    I said bundle not pack.

    I understand that but I will have to see what they include in a bundle and at what price.
  20. KAKTOS
    I know the prices are not set in stone but as it shows right now, its pretty high compared to buying a "pack".


    Origins Pack had

    10 Auras ( $10.00)
    5 Capes (6.25)

    instead of $9.99 for all.

    All that being said I for one will be buying more slots!!

    That seriously needs to be the official login screen image or at least something along those lines. Maybe with them all in the same art style.. but I think you nailed it. You should definitely PM this to a community rep. This needs to be Freedom's login screen image.

    Fantastic!
    This should be it!!

    Well done.

In fact, the ability to zoom in continues to be unavailable on that Head type even after you switch to another Head type. If you switch to another main Head type, you can zoom in and out as normal until you again open up a subsection under it. In fact, this problem persists if you move from the costume creator when creating a new character to editing a costume with a character you've already made, and vice versa.
    yep having the same issue , thought it was just me.

    I really wanted to use the vest with robot arms. So I was only really able to use the legs and feet also not sure if i should switch guns.
