Krunch

Cant check right now, but I rather suspect FFM has solved the issue.

I just presumed (with little computer knowledge) that when clicking the auto update driver button thingy, it would use the latest drivers. When I get home I'll try that thanks FFM.

I do use run as admin case that means anything Brimmy?

Thanks guys,

K

Heya folks

Few of me maybe wondered were I had got too, well this post pretty much explains it.

Playing CoH with the latest ATI drivers, the game seems far too bright to the point that I can’t play it. Also getting some curser issues, but I know that can be solved via compatibility cursor etc..

Anyone else have this brightness issue/know of a way of fixing it?

Looks as though I am forced to take a break for a few months, was really hoping issue 9 would sort some of it.

Thanks for any help.

K

I'll be there whenever you need a friend.. Doo Dee Doo.

Count me in.

K

I will try very very hard to be there with Hax (BS/Regen).

Lvl 50.

I hope to be there as Odins Son for targeting. I have sent you a PM as well. Some basics we need to sort for mito clearing like direction of mito clearing to be clockwise or counter clockwise, so theHami tank team knows where the mito clearing is going.

Some debate about who should be on the Request channel usually occurs. With a few people involved in organising the raid, I will stay off it as I can co-ordinate the mito group over Broadcast and 1 less on Request channel is likely to be a good thing.

As targeter, I think I may take the extra bit of time before moving from mito to mito to check for the tank team. I find that with the buffeting from people on follow, I can get dis-orientated easily, especially if Hami blinks out and I loose my point of reference. This is also made harder as I try not to have Hami in my line of sight when targeting anyway as I don't want to select it by accident when the mito we are attacking dies and so when Hami blinks out I am flying blind.

Anyway, just wanted to share my thoughts and findings in case for whatever reason I can't be there, someone may find this useful if they fill the role. I should post a little guide really.

In response to this.

I found this the other day, maybe of some use?

Guide To Hammi Targeting

K

You can use Krunch (Smashing) or Hax (Lethal).

They are both 50 as of this morning.

IIRC The DE mobs are normally resistant to one type, yet vulnerable to the other? So Which one da want?

The team seems to have a lot of Smashing in already.

K

Grats mate.

I am 49.5 and firestreak is 49.? (he's still playing)!

See you tomorow for me second 50 with luck.

K, I didn't say that you weren't in on the monster team 100%, I strongly reccomend you come along to the raid anyway, I'll have a list of reserves for the monster team; you and Leese will go straight at the top of the list So don't think you're not in the team, there still is a pretty good chance.

Edit: I may even need you in the starting formation if a few of my previous team-mates cannot make it. What Builds are you and Leese?

[/ QUOTE ]

Meh I know, just getting a bit tired of organizing people for this only to be told we dont need it, or the team was already made.

I know a few Foxes who are coming along to their first Hammi Raid.

Right, situation for monster patrol team is that I'll be using the same people as last time; if any spaces come up due to any last-time'ers not being available on the night and I believe you are a suitable build for the team then I'll put you in


[/ QUOTE ]

Right thats means again Im out of a job.

So is Leese (a scrapper) who also wanted in on the GM team.

Not off to the best of starts..

Best of luck Alpha hope the raid works out well for you.

K

Bit rushed so this will be brief for the moment.

I am up for the GM team.

If I am correct so far we have.

Krunch Ma/Regen (Scrapper)
Flush EmpElec(?) (Defender)
Maelwys Invun/? (Tanker)

I want to save a few spaces for Fox Baser's that have said they want in, names to follow soon.

Apollo fancy joining with your Claw/Regen for some good DPS?

Lemme know, anyone feel free to PM me.

I thought Captain was leading?

[/ QUOTE ]

So did everyone else.

But heh, if we win I aint too botherd, would have just liked to have seen Cap's style as it were.

K

Aye but debt will follow..

This way I can hide behined a tanker and stomp on em.

Anyways, jolly good we have a time.

Shame its 2 weeks away, least Hax should be 50 by then.

Ill be bringing a Foxbase team, should be a mix of peeps.

I think Hammerfalls offered to tank Hammi?
If not you could ask Appollo his tanker should be 50 in 2 weeks time, good tanker too.

K

Ok so all of a sudden healer looks to have taken charge?

How confusing.

If you post times etc, Ill be more than happy to lead/join a GM team. However i must warn you that TS aint gonna work for me simply not enough bandwidth on such a raid, I blame Karro so do all its other customers..

Looking forward to this one.

Next saturday the day to pen in my diary?

K

Would you make a man unemployed!?

Will have to think of something else to do then, never been toe to toe with those GMs thats all.

K

Second 50 no less, well done buddy.

YAY Golden Wing is now lvl 45 so he should be coming along this raid

[/ QUOTE ]

Damn good tanker, Hammi looks forward to eating you.

Hax should hit 45 tomorow, it would be nice to bring him along.

I did say sunday as it seems to be the best day, maybe wrong. I am free everyday barring the middle of the week. Ie: Tue/wed/thur.

I am well up for the raid, got an impending sense of fun.

As for a job, I would like to be on the GM team.

So Captain Alpha ready too lead a bunch of heroes? Are you hero enough? Maybe were better of asking someone else.. (/e Attempt to make Alpha have something to prove, thereby lead the raid.)

Well I can always jump onto TS War_Man during the Hami Raid, whether I'm the monster co-ordinator or Raid Leader. Would make communications alot easier (besides, the new headset needs some useage, havent used it since my old days at WoW ) I'm sure no matter who steps up for the roles of a Hami Raid, if we keep our communication and co-ordination all in line then we'll do fine next time round. Main thing is just to have a laugh and look forward to a shiny new Hami-O!

[/ QUOTE ]

Translates this as.. Yeah I (Alpha) will lead the raid, 7.30pm outside Hive next Sunday night?

K

Votes for Alpha to lead.

+1

K

Nah, the longest bit is killing the mito's, which as a Sacrapper is your area of intrest.

The actual killing/holding of Hammi doesnt take that long.


Lastly, just lower your settings a lil and you wont notice the lag... Thats my experience anyways and I am not on a top end machine.

K

Hmm use a diffrent colour!

Well my Bs/Regen, is well owning.

Though, up to level 26 he was a pain, believe it or not due to lack of damage!

BS has a long recharge time which means that their slow to get off the ground, really you do want to take Hasten and slot maybe 1 -recharge in to each attack.

Other than that its a versatile set, slice/Whirling Sword/Headsplitter all have an Cone or AoE component to them, so when lovely nemesis soldiers line up i salivate..

Hit BU and target the middle man, Headsplitter-Slice maybe a Whirling Sword to drop the thoughs that were not critted.. Did I mention the crit damage of head splitter? OUCH! I reckon at level 50 with BU maybe some other damage buffs 1000 damage is far from impossible, though this is not based on any numbers that will no doubt bombared me now!

The lack of status effects is a bit poo, lots of knockup from Disembowel, dont really see Head Splitter second effect as the mobs dead anyways..

Stay Broad Sword and enjoy.

Oh and I am the only BS'er to spec out Parry, something I'll talk about later..

Okay, I just had to remove several posts from this thread.

If you can't find it in yourself to congratulate a fellow player on hitting 50 (regardless of your personal feelings towards them), please don't post to a thread that exists solely to mark that achievement.

Likewise, if someone does violate the Message Board rules and guidelines or otherwise behaves in an objectionable manner, do not respond in kind. Report the post to me, and I will deal with it.

I don't want to see any more of this nonsense from either side, whether in this thread or elsewhere on the boards. If you don't like someone, have the good sense to simply avoid and/or ignore them.

This is what Ive said for ages about dealing with a certain Defiant player...

Nevermind.

You pay the money-you play the game like you want to.

Congrats mate.

K

Krunch reporting for duty, would love to be in the GM team, something new..

This might even be Hax's first raid, bless him lvl 43 at the minute, working on it this weekend though.

K

HeHe

There I am white suit-red hair, most clearly seen on Pic 1.

Was a great raid, very much fun indeed.

All this stoof about "The mito phase not being done very well" etc.. Pfft, they died didnt they?

Thanks to leaders.

K

(Sorry If this is a tad bit long)

Right I may well be missing the mark of the thread but I wanted to add my 2 pence...

I loathe playing my Stalker, PvP or PvE...

At first it was great fun, I was heard saying things like..

"HaHA AS one shotted kill, HeHe."

"Wow what a great way to prevent me from pwning you!"

After a while these turn into-

"Heh another one down.."

"Great another generic anti Stalker build" *Walks off to find someone else*

My point (Yes, I do have one) is this..

Now call me unimaginative, boring or just too damn good.

The Stalker AT is a mind numbingly limited and boring arch type to play, both PvP and PvE. Quite possibly in the whole of CoX.

Every time I PvP there are 2 kinds of players that you encounter.

These are...

1) No anti Stalker powers - Jump in BU-AS-Placate-High Damage Attack. Foe defeated.

2) Anti Stalker Powers - Maybe make the mistake of engaging, most times spot this and leave him/her well alone.

If you play your Stalker right, there is never an in between. Never the "Oh 1 last hit can I land before he takes my last sliver of health!" or "The hmm, interesting If I use this power, this will negate his power (in other words resourcefulness)".

Pretty much always the same Attack/Combat routine.

In teams.. Well I have no idea why any PvP invite me! Do I smell good or something? A stalker offers extremely little to a team other than the following.

"Uh, 1 here guys."

"Ok, on our way."

"Doesn't matter got him."

There are ample ways for anyone to block a Stalker, but very little for a Stalker to avoid being blocked.

It strikes me as thought up by the following.

"Heh been playing a Rouge on WoW its great fun, Stealth and back stabbings great."

"Heh tell me about it been playing GW Factions, made myself an Assassin, really spices up PvP."

"Heh lets make one in CoX despite having currently no way for a lot of people too see through Invisibility.. This will make them rely upon Defenders, because we all know theres a lot of them who want to go into PvP or the currently underused Leadership Tree.”

“There gonna have a problem with PvE though, especially all those great new escort X and the Fight X wave's missions..”

“Ah but they'll soon learns too love the utterly monotonous Newspaper missions”

"We need a villainous name, I know Stalker."

"Great, so we'll adapt sets already used and fit them to the mold, yes lets call the main most damaging attack.... Assassins Strike."

"Wow, how original. Have a pay rise on me.."

If you want long term fun and an every changing gaming/PvP experience, play another AT..Please.
