mmmmm MM pain domination does this mean i get to whip my pets into shape

Well not real will more a case of my mind throwing up garbage as usual

1. Doorjamb / causes target to stub toe
2- 10 pints / single target buff makes target feel invulnerable side effect target can feel woozy and throw up after effects ware out
3- Hairpull/ causes target to have a mild headache and while reaching for his pain kills gets squished by brute with shinny new shield.
4/ Whiplash target is unable to turn around allowing a stalker to hit target over the head with his slightly tarnished shield
5- Itching/ causes target to dance around like a demented chicken on acid
6-NHS/ meant to be the rez but doesn't work right as there’s a long waiting list (plus staff shortage and cut's)and while when the rez finally kicks in you find you have been infected with a nasty rash
7-Plastic Surgery/ single target buff that scares the living daylights out of anyone who looks at the player. NOTE* buff rest of team with 10 pint's 1st as this could cause team mates to run.
8- Piles / aoe attack the only attack but devastating cause the targets to become obsessed with rubber rings and run round clutching there cheeks

ignore me being thick see the link but there will be an intresting side effeect to the market from this

Can't find where this guy got hi quote from but this is what he posted.

Wow.

Seems to be some things coming up in I13 that could have a major impact on the market.

Day Jobs:

Quote:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


"Day Jobs (Offline Character Progression)
Scholar? Caregiver? City Official? Now when players log out of City of Heroes / Villains they’re just getting started! A character’s day job is determined by the actual in-game location from which he or she logs out. If players log out from a University their day job is considered to be a Scholar. If they log out from City Hall they're a City Official. The benefits are thematically appropriate to the location. For example, a City Official earns extra Influence, a Scholar is granted Salvage, a Caregiver is granted Health Regeneration Buffs, etc.

Once characters have accumulated the required amount of time for each Day Job, they are rewarded with the appropriate Day Job Badge and Title, increasing their “earnings” for that job. Multiple Badges can be combined to unlock Accolades and the ability to accumulate additional new rewards. Almost every location within Paragon City™ and the Rogue Isles™ has an associated Day Job, resulting in a wide selection of jobs and rewards! "


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------




First I wonder what the Day Job will be called for those of us that logout at the market all the time. "Day trader"? "Arbitrager?" Any guesses on what the associated reward might be?

And depending on what kind of Salvage or control you might have over what you get, Scholars could add a lot of salvage to the market over time.


Then there's the Merit Rewards:


Quote:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Merit Rewards System is a new game system that allows players to earn tokens by completing Trials, Task Forces, Strike Forces, Raids, etc. The most challenging and time consuming tasks grant the most reward tokens, which can be redeemed throughout Hero and Villain zones for recipes, enhancements, salvage, costume pieces, badges, inspirations and other game items."

"...as well as a brand new reward system that will hopefully see the end of “necessary” Task Force farming trying to get that one specific Recipe you have been dying to get."


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------




That last part being the most ominous quote. It makes it sound like people when they earn enough merits will be able to choose a specific Pool C (or whatever) recipe they want.

The days of 100mil Inf Recipes may be a thing of the past.

Any other thoughts? I'm still taking it all in...

I was reading the clues for Ashley Mcknight and Positron as a Tech Origin in Percy's Origin of Power Story Arc and it revealed something very interesting.

Here is Ashley Mcknight's clue when you are asked to Talk to Imperious:
"Cimerora is an ancient land in the Mediterranean. Many believe it is the birthplace of the super powered being. Ashley McKnight notes that this is not altogether accurate. Cimerora is, however, one of the more famous locations in history where various origins of power came together in a similar way that is happening in our current timeline.

McKNight also notes that Imperious, the man you're supposed to contact, comes from an origin that has been completely absent for some time. That of the Incarnate."

Now onto Positron's Clue:
"However, you and I both know that there's a moment when you're tied into technology where you feel that connection to something huge -- something bigger than your own ability. I have some theories on this if you'd like to hear them.

Are you familiar with the work Dr. Brainstorm's been doing on regards to Power Proliferation? Well, Paragon City has tried to keep things under wraps as much as possible, but it's going to be pretty difficult to do.

What he's done is broken down barriers, allowing heroes and villains to have a access to a wider range of powers. Now, the ramifications of this are frightening to say the least. But it does reveal some of the underlying tapestry that binds all of us together. I believe that all of our powers and abilities are connected in a sort of web... that might be the wrong word - let's say a net.

This net reaches across to the mutants, the magicians, those that have been altered to become something more than human and even to people like Manticore that aren't directly connected to it. I once thought that the natural and technological heroes were somehow separate from the world of powers, but now, because of Dr. Brainstorm's work, I'm starting to think otherwise. If we were separate we would not have been affected by his Power Proliferation experiments. But I've heard that even natural and technology heroes are starting to see the effects."

So we have the Incarnate origin as the origin that ruled over all others and Power Proliferation causing the barriers between all the origins to break down. This leads me to believe that Incarnate was the first origin and for some reason the other origins were created as a result of some event and Incarnate ceased to exist. Power Proliferation causes the origins to somehow unify back into the Incarnate origin in some people resulting in the sixth origin, Incarnate.


Intresting debat going on on the american forum

The change to the dates is a real pian in the butt for me was off the 1st weekend the new weekend Im working on the sat and as I had no intrest in the lvl 40 I'm well and truly stuffed. Will have to get s sub strait away may have to get my son to play my account if the team wish to continue. We had all looked at the origanal dates and aimed for then so don't know how meny can make the new date.

1 question why split the events surly you can run some of both on sat and sun. This way you could go for round 1 on sat. round 2 and possably 3 to as not so meny teams will be involved.

I have 3 lvl 50 mms the easiest to lvl was my thugs dark but was mainly in duo with a bots/dark. My necro/poison took the longest but the 1 i enjoy the most and still use even in RV is my bots/traps. Have seen bots/ff do realy well so don't give up completely on your mm. I find if I go away and play something else for awhile its not so bad coming back to it.

As for brutes again I have 3 lvl 50 easiest to lvl was my eng/wp with the exception of the fire/rad super team and a full crab team it was the fastest lvler i've ever had. The only down is the nurf which has made me stop playing him) my fav brute for a long time has been has been my ss/fire. Fire secondery can be hard to play as you realy are relying on your heal but it is 1 of the best self heal's in the game. My other brute was a dark/dark hard to play but great fun.

Big Gratz m8

cool now all i need is the inf anyspare change accepted

True that would be difficult but if your using 2 or 3 accounts the idea is to just use 1 toon to attack. As for the programing being against the rules they probably are but you would need to prove it is being done that way. The GM's maybe able to but as a player it would be impossable to tell so there would be noway of knowing. You could tell a GM you susspect this is the case but would they be intrested enough to do something about it.

It's pretty hard to bounce between multiple accounts and actively PvP. Unless you're right near the hospital, but then - more fool for you fighting near the hospital.

Not realy if you have the time and the inclanation 1 account only buffs and recalls when your in trouble. 2 PC'S buffer set up with a macro to tp you back with touch of a single button. You could even run 2 accounts on 1 pc and use a 3rd account as your attack account on another pc. Double the buffs or 2 diffrent types of buffs either would give you a massive advantage. 2 empaths buffing the hell out another toon will make that toon god like. The other thing which would be possable is a time set to recall so if you know how long the buffs will last you will get automaticaly recalled befor they run out and if you have prompt tp on you would not have to miss out on a kill if close to 1. Humm it may be possable I do say may be to have a program running that will recognise when your health bar gets below a certain lvl and again auto tp back to base. This is something you would have to ask somebody like sing who would know if this is possable.

I have put 3 purple's pets in to my MM did not go with a full set as 3 gave me the bounses I was after. But have had a thought if I put the other 3 into a diffrent pet would I (as with other sets) get the same 1st 3 bonuses or as there purples would I get the full 6 set bonus?

my earth/psi dom has a nice little pet now

Just a couple of comments I love the whole earth set but have removed my groupe immobalise as went against everything else. Earthquake is up realy quickly and I am sloting my stun with as much recharge as I can.

The only annoying thing I find is my powers not being effected by dominating ok quicksand I can understand earthquake mmm would be nice though how do you make things falldown even more than they do. But my group hold where is my domination I want it now "stomps up and down and throws dummy out of window"

TutTutOmeter
NerfOmeter (you have been bad you killed that heroe to easaly take a nerfing)

Interflora (you have been good hear are some flowers)

supercalafragalistic

leaving of the fact that you have no stamina and are going to need it for the toggles your running I'd drop smoke it's basicaaly pant's. Take recall friend you have the ability to ghost so use it and then tp your team mates to you.i notice your not going for sets so won't push this but it will be worth you getting dome def/rech and tohit/rech into mind link. With set bonuses you can make midlink perm but as your not spending that much just doing this little bit will help it recharge and if you get hasten with 3 io recharges in it that will help. Belive me the more you can buff your team with mind link the better.

I do wish plp would stop using foul language. That 4 letter word begining with n and ending with f is the worst and is bound to get plps backs up without even trying. (maybe thats the true point of the post)


Oh why oh why do plp join teams then complin about what the team is doing? Have the balls to ask what the team is doing befor you join and if they say freak mission's decline the invite.

Or more simple create your own team and do missions you want to do.

persoanly i get annoyed with plp spaming local chat with drivel while im trying to push someone of a wall


Anyone for a hug

Found the 2 snipets above while looking for the expected screams about the reversion of the patch. But found none as you can see they havn't put the patch back on there servers.

looking thougth the american forums to see if i could find out any more about yesterdays problems with the patch came across 2 things
Hi everyone,

We wanted to point out an additional patch note that we have included for the publish of version 17.20080723.3T that went to the Live servers on August 5th.

From the Patch Notes Page:


Quote:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Bases

Coalition Base Storage change – To correct an issue with access rights, it is no longer possible to store salvage or enhancements within storage bins of an allied base in a Coalition.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



We want to be clear that this change was necessary to correct a problem where a malicious user could gain unauthorized access to supergroup storage. We anticipate users will be able to work around this revision by actively trading between Coalition members and not the storage bins.



and

For anyone who is logging into their account to find that it has Trial Account Limitations, please know that this is a known issue that we are working on correcting as quickly as possible. For reference, the issue is affecting a very small subset of our players - but this doesn't make it any less of a priority for us.

The reason for this problem lies in a core change in how we manage trial accounts and optimizations included in the latest live version over how we did that in previous versions.

Again, our apologies for any inconvenience caused. We anticipate having a solution for the problem implemented today or early tomorrow. Thanks in advance for your patience and understanding.

Well, if a topic results in some nastiness, then a change of topic might be for the better

A change of topic based on ones individual judgement of content can often lead to 21719 garbage and counting.

And thats because someone decided that speaking about something game related is a crime and definitely needs derailiing.Cause discussing serious sometimes is just naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaasty.

Wait wait here it comes

It's 04:20 and im coming towards the end of a nightshift and you've put a smile on my face with this post ty TG

This has happend befor and will proably happen again and at a guess from the no of posts you have you are an infrequent visitor to the forum. As such you probably would not have been forwarnd of this type of behaviour. Having said that you would proably have acted in the same manor as youve already stated you had no reason not to trust him. Personaly I see this more alone the lines of a con + theft. Which in my eyes is worse than a stright forward theft. Any organisation or individual who would condone this however indirectly is as moraly bankrupt as the person commiting the offence and I admire your stance.
But please do not leave this game with a bitter taste in your mouth. It has give you meny hours of enjoyment with plp who you have come to know and trust. If you do leave take those memmories with you and not this last one. I am sure meny good plp will be sad to see you go. On a final note and with a bit of a hope of keeping you here, if your not around to tell plp in game what has happend (only a low % read the forum)who will.

Big gratz to Ultra. on getting his Tank Supreme Ultra to the big 50

Humm I don't mind this at all. I can see there being a market for those who don't have alot of time to play and would rather spend that time playing than trying to gather the inf for a respec recpie. Pluss extra cash NCNC get will filter back to us eventualy(hopefuly).

There is one thing i have a few spare respec's on toons I dont play any more could i sell them back to NCNC I won't charge £5.99 how does 1 purple or a LOG + 7.5% recharge as a swop sound.
