Yes, I was on a Tanker. Why wouldn't any inherent KB protection or resistance show up in the combat attributes though? There isn't even a section for Protection anyway, because there isn't a duration on KB.
With Unyielding turned off, it still showed the same -12.0 but of course it took me for a ride.

OK, so now I just tested my Defender.
She has Acrobatics slotted with 3 KB IOS, giving her a +12.5 KB protection.
The Pylon still shows the same -12.0 again. She did not get knocked back at all.

I don't think I have any other characters with sub12 KB protection, other than 0.. so I don't really have any more test results to show. I'm just assuming a protection of 12 is all that would be needed.

pact'd toons earn half the xp, not half the inf. If this is the case, I'd /bug it for sure.

I can hardly read the dark green on the villain skin, but I agree with this.

Technically, there is no such thing as an Architect Trial, or an Architect Version. You either have a Trial, or full subscription... regardless which advertisement you clicked on, or which boxed version you bought. The game version is the same for everybody.

The only thing a different boxed version may give you is a few extra powers or costume pieces added to your account. Any Trial version is still under the same restrictions.

I like this. As I have always said, people can farm or do whatever they want to do, and it doesn't affect my game. I'm not against farming, I just don't personally do it.

But this post is suggesting something I haven't really thought about before. The farmers can get more drops and feed the items into the market to help us non-farmers get what we need as well. Otherwise, we'd be looking at certain items being rarer and possibly having to pay a slightly higher price for them, or not be able to get them at all.

It seems to me it's a WIN for everybody.

I have mine disabled for personal reasons. I believe that with so many people manually manipulating their Rep value, it doesn't stand for anything anyway.

But you are right, it doesn't stop people from trying to (-) me for making posts against the misuse of the rep feature. All this with my rep not even enabled! What point are they trying to make? rofl
The funny part is, I seem to get just as many, if not more (+) for the same posts as well.

Then again, I also see just as many GREY rep values as well. Apparently the rep scaling can be high enough that some people's opinions don't even count. That makes me like the rep feature even less. Why should helping a new player fix his client and get on his feet count for nothing?

Oh well.. On a side note, I do appreciate reading some of the comments people have left me, thanking me for my help.
My favorite recent one is:
- Your rep is off, but you're so helpful!

Judging by the time of the rep, and the thread history of the post I was given rep for, I think I know who it was, but whoever it really was, I thank you for that either way. It was cute.

If somebody's rep is turned off, I think you should rep them anyway... as long as you are leaving feedback and being honest about it.

And yet they admit there is nothing they can do but contact the companies involved in hopes that they will fix something on their end. It's not something that NCSoft can fix. The OP blaming them and "flipping them the bird" would be completely inappropriate in this case. I do sympathize, and it's unfortunate to have to close down an account that you might otherwise enjoy if conditions were different, but it's not always the direct fault of the service you are subscribing to. It's frustrating indeed, but the anger is misguided.

Like I said, "It can be any number of access points en route to the server" and my location apparently doesn't require passing through the particular network that is failing to perform correctly.

As somebody who plays almost exclusively on Freedom, I'll certainly take your advice and "count my blessings" that I live in an area that is not experiencing this difficulty. A few other people I've teamed with and asked about this have also reported no issues at all, and they also live on the East Coast, though I cannot say specifically where, or what service they are using.

Why? It sounds like it's working as intended. In your scenario, it's just a very small "chance for" earning a Merit when killing the Rikti in your mission. You just weren't lucky enough to get a drop.

Remember: 10% does not necessarily mean 1 out of every 10.

I don't know if it was broken. That's the way it usually looks for me, and the way it looked all last night when you made your post. I posted only a half an hour after you did, and was on for more than 3 hours at the time.

If you were having an issue at the time you posted, I'm afraid it wasn't everybody having the problem, and I don't know of anybody but you that did.

During that time period, I was in Monster Island (it's where I logged off), Mercy Island (to help somebody transfer some money), Port Oakes (to pay my base rent), Cap (to go to market), and Nerva and GV (for the SF). Which zone were you having trouble in? Was anybody else complaining about it in /broadcast?

How is it working for you now?

I use your Stylish file Zombie, and I don't mind the Green at all (as long as it's bold). Yellow and Dark/Orange aren't bad either. Cyan is my favorite, but I'm unsure how it looks on Hero. I guess I'm going to have to check before I use it again. lol

Edit: Cyan doesn't seem to be the best choice either, but it's still readable. I think I'd choose the "Lime" over the Cyan anyway. To each his own.. I guess.

BTW, I agree that I can't even read the dark Blue that Neuronia used either. Ouch!

Great job everybody! Too bad we all died at the end. lol

I am on Freedom, currently nearing the end of a successful MoLRSF.

I've been logged in for almost 3 hours now without any issues.
(Ok, so the whole team did have a momentary hiccup in first mission, but that was it.)
(And no, the SF isn't taking that long, I was just online before we started. lol)

Here is my current netgraph:


I'd be looking at your network provider instead.

This.

Even though I don't normally have any issues with the mission, doesn't mean I don't acknowledge the issue. When it happens, it happens to everybody on the team at the same time, regardless of what their system specs are. It appears to be an issue either with the server sending the information, or the server computing something at that particular time. (This doesn't mean people can't lag for other reasons, but I'm referring to this one specific lag scenario.)

When it happens, you can almost always find stuck ambushes or patrols behind the archway or on a bush somewhere. Killing them usually fixes the issue, but it's not an exact science. It's easier just to avoid it altogether by fighting the ambushes from the bridge or clearing.. and even run up to manually taunt and pull the ambushes at times. For people who use a similar tactic and still have the problem.. I honestly don't know what to tell you, and I'm sorry for that.

While the ambushes seem to be the problem, I don't know if it really is. All I can do is present my own experiences to you, and that's what I feel the problem is. I feel that moving the ambush spawn locations would benefit the stability of that mission.

On a side note, regarding the post-Rom lag.. there are actually other ambushes during and after Rom that most people ignore. Most times, they are not a big deal, but sometimes they get stuck as well.. and you end up in a similar situation as Mission 3.

To ensure I prevent this, I make sure I kill everything from what I call the "Imperious ambush" at the beginning of the mission, the "door ambush" on the right side of Rom's platform during the fight, and take out everything from the "hill ambush" on top of the tall hill in front of his platform after the fight. THEN I head to the rooftops to finish off any possible required Cimerorans. (This isn't always ideal in speed-runs, but sometimes at least one person can stay behind to keep those ambushes busy in those cases, and there wont be any ambushes trying to follow you up buildings they can't climb, or plants they don't know how to move around. lol)

Hmm.. somehow my "-or-" got cut out of there.. lol

It was:
-or-
What if the account actually expires by accident, and is reinstated the same day?

But you're right. It probably wouldn't be an issue, depending on what they are using to detect the active subscription. Either way, it probably wouldn't be more than a /petition away to check it over and award it to the exceptions.

Was just curious.
