  1. Is it possible to access the paragon market out of game, as it is essentially a web site? I can't launch the game at work, but it would be nice to be able to see the available offerings.
  2. Thanks for this thread, at least now I can get on the forums. Is there scheduled maintenance or something going on, because the game tells me that 'public access is denied'.?
  3. Servers are still down, estimated up time is 4:00 est

    Points!

    I'm going to hope it has something to do with the servers not being up yet. I too am showing zero points in my PlayNC account, and I've been playing since early release BETA 2004 without a break...
  5. Thanks for sharing that. It's nice to be proven wrong about my stance on the human population once in a while.
  6. The final wait before i21 goes live, the anticipation is palpable! I sadly won't be able to play tonight once it goes live (due to family obligations), but I will be on Wednesday!

    I guess today I'm just going to actually have to work at work!
  7. Nope. Low level content goes by in the first hour of play, even solo without power leveling. I can't think of any good reason to miss it.
  8. Dual Pistol / Time Manipulation Corruptor.

    Entirely possible I am wrong, but that is how I remember it. I do like having the 8 pts of knockback protection instead of 4 though.
  10. So, if I am reading this correctly, the head start begins Tuesday evening at roughly 6pm (assuming east coast time, 'cause hey... it's where I live)?
  11. I need something to hold onto so I don't just fling off this mudball!

    Two suggestions:

    1) Drop Hover for Combat Jumping, and only use 2 slots. Take the flight enhancement and put it in Hasten, which brings you 3 seconds from perma. (You can get vertical movement cheap at 10k inf per flight pack)

    2) Drop Aim and pick up Wolf spider armor. The extra resist won't do you any good, but the extra mez protection means you are the only character in the game who can stand next to Romulus when he rez's without needing any pink cookies. (added bonus, you can slot another knock back proc in there too).

    3) (I know I said 2 but...) You can take the extra slot from Aim and put it in Venom Grenade. The Ragnarok proc for knockdown is relatively cheap and works wonders in there.
  13. My crab spider. Almost unkillable, unstoppable AoE stream of damage and pets.
  14. I started playing on day 1 in 2004, since then:

    I have had 2 daughters (6 and 1, the 6 year old occasionally plays with me now).
    I lost my father (which was not a bad or tragic thing if you knew him).
    I lost 1oo pounds and took up running.
    I celebrated my 15th year of marriage to my best friend.
    I have bought 3 new computers.
    I left my old job and took a new job that pays 1/2 as much and has increased my QoL substantially.

    I have an Itsy Bitsy Spider too. Too good of a name not to use.

    On most of my characters my search comment is something like : "will team for food"

    ... that line would be hilarious in one of those montage funny movies like 'scary movie 4' or some such nonsense though.

    On topic, the dragon call doesn't bother me a bit, it still sound like something that might eat me. The 'Noo!' is absolutely ridiculous, just as stupid as it was in the prequel trilogy.
  21. Never heard of 'Cowboy Beebop', but a HUGE Johnny Cash fan. Now I'm going to need to go rent this movie.
