    OMG this was SOOOO epic. Stupid rad dced!!!! I still cannot believe we won that. If it was now with all the Incarnate slotting and stuff, we'd have just duo-ed the thing.

    But that never happened. Because we didn't have any.

    Having them present is a practical necessity in training for both the offensive and defensive mechanics. Hell, that's a large chunk of why the jump team model was made was it not?

    Just for clarification... I do not think he is saying there should not be any stalkers. I think he is saying that it's not as good of a character to START with. AKA... the BC1 grads should play it, with the newbies on a blaster type.

    (not arguing, just trying to say you both have valid points, but are misunderstanding each other)
  5. Hey all! Just popping in from the NA servers to see all of the interest in this European Auction . I've run several auctions on Victory and other servers. I had so much fun running these events, that I suggested EERC run them as well.

    Auctionees should do their best to make themselves attractive for bidding. That may mean listing your characters or things that you are specifically good at. Like for me... I would say that I am great at making min/max builds on a budget and running super quick task forces.

    When bidding, you bid on the player as a whole and all of their characters, so you can ask them to play anything you'd like, possibly even create something new!

    I really wish I could be a part of this event for you Riff, but I might show up on a trial Euro account to help out and be part of the crowd
  6. To my darling husband,

    I love you very much and I am so happy that I get to celebrate another of your birthdays with you . This past year has been full of great things and I look forward to many more! You are one of the kindest, funnest, and most patient people alive. You are the best!

    Happy Birthday! I will do my best to make this day very special for you.

    And grats!!!!! You get a new power!!!!!

  12. I lol at the fact that Masque and Lin and Mental are calling my husband a power gamer. One of the three is an uber power gamer, one is a power gamer in training, and the other is well.... Mental.

    I am proud to be a powergamer I'd rather get 4 TFs done than one long one. I just don't have the patience!

    Very simple- play the game, use the tools available.

    -Don't vendor things unless they are really totally crap. Also don't list things for 1 inf. List them for an appropriate price, then you will always make what you want (and not LOSE inf on a sale).

    -If you just want to mishes, do tips or arcs. The A-merits from tips are gold and so is the merit bonus from arcs.

    -When you buy things, buy recipes and craft yourself. When you sell, craft them. (this is the general rule 90% of the time I would say)

    -And lastly... and you can't do this all the time, but.....

    Enter contests!

    PERC runs hami raids every week, if you show up in the themed costume, you can win recipes, enhancements or inf. We also run a lot of forum/in game contests where we've given away lots of inf/prizes. It's not a reliable source of income, but it certainly does help!!!
    ______________________


    Also remember, purples are exciting, but not the be all end all. You can make great builds on a budget without any purples. If you need help, just ask


    (and if all else fails, I am looking to pay someone to craft about 300 recipes for me.... lol)
  21. Great job all! Sorry for some timing issues, I am not used to calling everything hehe.

    Next week is blue side! Theme is Silver Age Hero.
  22. Theme for this week's RED SIDE raid will be....

    Rocky Horror Picture Show!

    Let's do the time warp again
  23. Any good looking Romanesque costume is fine... but Togas are the best!


    As for red side, I thought Gris and I had decided that I would host blue, he would host red. But I think maybe I decided that in my head and never talked to Gris about it lol. So we'll try it this one time and see how it goes. I am personally not really interested in running them on red side, but I know a lot of people are so in the words of Lin: "I'm gamey for it."
