I am going to make a character there just for the sake of being able to get ANY name I want. I will go for the prize stuff, but I don't see myself playing there often. It might be a place for 50s I don't play much to go... since we get free transfers monthly.

Corruptor and the SJ/Invuln brute. SR is fun, I used to love it. But I just think to myself... why be SR when you could be shield and have resistance and +hp as well. Although the nice thing about SR on a brute is the taunt aura.. that is kind of fun.

Thanks
Hope you enjoy your IO.
Eric- you are saucy too! -
There will be a Hami raid on 9/10 (blueside), the theme is Zoot Suit! (not sure who to credit for that lol)
I unfortunately will not be there because I have to go to a wedding in Washington DC. Ice should be there with prizes though

No worries Fista, I lead the raid and we had a very successful turn out. I think at least 2 teams got to double plant which is awesome sauce. Glad your power is back! -

With all the recent events (Sales of Costume Boosters stopping next Monday, downtime for hardware upgrade) I'm thinking we might be looking at early September... like maybe the Devs announce at PAX that I21: Freedom will launch on Tuesday, September 6th!
Who's with me?
My guess is not before September 29th. They are having the $2 sale on accounts and it does not really make sense to make someone buy an account (and get a month with it) if it is going to go free before the month is up. The sale ends on August 29th. So I am going to put my money on October 4/5 or 11/12. -
Welcome back! And don't grind, just have fun and play! You'll get the new shiney when you get it

Theme for 8/20 is Aliens Attack! I will not be there, I have to go to a wedding, but I will pass prize money to someone else.

I made 900mil on the market in one "flip" transaction (buy recipe, craft and sell enhancement). And it wasn't due to someone making a bidding error.
I watched him shout with glee when this happened.
Otherwise... I had a great time at Six Flags and selling stuff. -
I really like the idea of building up all of my inventory slots. I will probably buy the enhancements, recipes, and salvage at some point. I do think the prices are a bit high. But since I plan to stay VIP and I get the free points monthly, it's just something to work towards. I like the idea of holding like 50 recipes and being able to hold enough salvage to craft them all. I can use my (will be newly acquired) /auctionhouse for 20 and then have room for the other 30 in my trays. Will be so useful for respecs, new builds, and going for field crafter.

Today, I got my hours cut at work, with a corresponding pay cut. I texted this to my girlfriend, who replied that she needs some space and is going to stay with her parents for a while.
So, how's YOUR day going?
Sucks to hear about the work. But I have a feeling the the latter portion is a blessing in disguise. Someone who is not going to stand by you, with you, and hold you up when you are down is not someone who you necessarily want to keep in your life. You know I wish you the best of luck.
As for my day... I went to the dentist, got a cleaning. They do this stupid thing where they poke you in your gums to see how soft they are... no other dentist's office ever did that. Not a fan! Other than that things are good. Just waiting for Beta to start and MMP to get home

Quote:It is a good idea, we did try this, however, it just clogged the chat and people didn't read it anyways. There are people who read and people who do not read... unfortunately the people who get caught are (typically) the people who don't read anyway (or don't read as it goes and only check once every 30 seconds or so).Originally Posted by VoodooCompany
Having been on a couple of actual badge attempts now, I'd like to throw out an idea:
Avoiding the green stuff *really* shouldn't be hard at all, but I think it's happening because there is a lot going on to pay attention to.....with the real factor(s) being either lag or animation time. What I've not seen on the few badge runs I've been on is someone warning about an incoming Green splat; the timer is there, but actively engaging AM and paying atteniton to green fields and not being disintegrated is going to affect a lot of people where they fire off something that will just take too long (and probably travel suppression is in play too). If people are using Vent for this, all the power to them, but there will be people not getting that extra warning (like me
)
So while not an original idea, I'd like to see a dedicated caller for the Oblit beam. "~10 seconds till splash down" (especially if people are sitting in the hospital), get in a *quick* attack, and then everyone completely disengage until the green field shows up, allowing people to move out of the way first, and then fire off their Destiny and other long-animation powers. Take that long run on sentence rule! If given time, the idea would be that everyone, save a taunter, would actually group TOGETHER so that there will only be 2 possible places the green will splash down; where the taunter is or where the group is.
Yes it does, but we have failed doing this because someone jumped and got hit. The best is actually if everyone is on the ground and we have a kin for sb (no suppression) and everyone turns off all travel powers.Quote:Now questions:
* Has anyone tested the height of the green splash affected area? In Apex, there is a definite height limit of where it will affect you; when I'm on a flyer, if I stay ~40 feet up and I get a blue swirl, any and all melee can happily play underneath it without worry. I'll go higher if my attacks/debuffs have the range, but about 40 seems to be completly safe. If the same applies with the green stuff, flying would actually help *IF* the fliers pay extra attention to the details.
There is not a timer, as long as AM is not on the regen station, disintegrating is constant. It goes from 1 target to the next as soon as 1 cycle is complete (well or the same target).Quote:* Is there a displayed timer for Disintegration? I've only done this on my scrapper and he has yet to die during the AV fight regardless of 2, 3, FOUR! disintegrations in a row. For others, the extra warning might be useful?
Yes there is a message, but you will only see it if you are facing AM and have that person on your screen in your field of view. When I play my pain I scroll my camera all the way back so that I can see it. I still miss it sometimes though.Quote:* Disintegration targetting: Is there an "X is being targetted for disintegration" message? I could have sworn I've seen it SEPARATE of the oblit message, but the last run I did, I never got disintegrated, so am not sure.
The badge runs you have been on so far (the ones that I have led) have not been successful in part because the strategy we used to "win" previously was not used. When doing a run with a bunch of people I have not played it with before, I have no idea who needs to be sat in the hospital and who will be able to pop greens and dodge correctly. I need about 3 runs with the same group to really tell, then choose 8 to do the end fight. I am sure there are lots of other ways to do it... but that is what has worked for me (several times) so I say, if it works, I will keep doing it that way lol.Quote:I may be talking to myself with others having this aspect already mastered, but my lack of play time keeps me from getting more attempts in with random people who do their own thing anyway

What else ya gonna waste 'em on?
Recipes? Or wait until the new incarnate stuff comes out? If they do not use the same currency (which I hope they will!) I am hoping there will be way to convert
-
The person who used to run them only runs them off and on.
Thanks for volunteering to lead them Fista!!! I look forward to joining sometimes
-
Oh and 48 slots per server... (well up to) that's a BIG deal!
-
The wish list thing is interesting. It would be really cool if you could somehow publish that (under your global, not account name) and people could send gifts. I would love that!
-
I actually had enough to unlock everything the day it came out with just MP, but I decided to save my Empyreans and not unlock the expensive armor. I just don't really see myself using it, so I figured, why waste my precious on it?
Congrats to you though Mental for getting it done

Theme next week was chosen by Linarra: NO PANTS!

im glad that im finally done with that abomination of a trial
i seriously hope that the underground trial is better than the keyes trial
Keyes is not hard at all.. just the badges were hard. (well and herding cats is a lil hard) -
Thanks to Organica for a very smooth trade! Still have some things if anyone wants to make some trade offers

And now congrats to Ice Knight on his Master of Keyes badge!
