Who are you, and what have you done to the States that was on a nerfing spree?

WOW. WOW. WOW.

*grabs a coin*
Heads, I roll up a Stone Armor Brute. Tails, EA.

*flip*

Ya might want to mention in the title that this is for Stalkers... I was expecting info on an EM/Fire Brute I was planning.

Longbow is easy because...

- No caltrops

[/ QUOTE ]
MA bosses have all the Weapon Mastery Stuff.
[ QUOTE ]
- No debuffing powers

[/ QUOTE ]
Radiation and Sonic bosses, and that one Warshade one (slows ARE a debuff)
[ QUOTE ]
- No pet summoning

[/ QUOTE ]
Illusion bosses. BTW, the Spectral Terrors they summon come at WAAAAY too high a level. I've seen them at 43 in a lv. 32 ruthless mission.
[ QUOTE ]
- No particular resistances to anything

[/ QUOTE ]
...Okay, hard to argue here.

[ QUOTE ]
- No healing other than some bosses

[/ QUOTE ]
Well... okay, you mentioned those bosses.
[ QUOTE ]
- No holds, imob, or sleep other than the rare stun or web gernade

[/ QUOTE ]
Mind control/Empathy bosses.
[ QUOTE ]
- No phase shifting or teleporting
- No self rez'ing

[/ QUOTE ]
Okay, there's that. It what makes me hate Wailer Kings.

Might want to note this before any other Ice controllers try to solo Terra: she was given the typical AV hold resists now. There are also little portal-like objects in the mission as well, but that's something else.

Heard in a newspaper mish:
"So he says to Ghost Widow, "Go <bleep!> yourself." So she fixes him with this cold gaze and puts her hand through his chest. Loser dies. No teleporter, no nothin'. Creepiest thing I ever saw."

...Damn.

I do wonder who made the descriptions for the Longbow Flamethrowers... it's classic. For those who haven't seen them:

"Harkening back to the days of flaming arrows are Longbow's flamethrowers. Longbow tries not to use these when the press is around. Burning enemies to cinders doesn't sound well for a 'heroic' organization."

[/ QUOTE ]
Does it really say that? I couldn't tell, all the descriptions for Longbow are the same. Same thing for the Gold Brickers, Luddites, Snakes, Mooks, Coralax, CoT Hordelings and Scrapyarders so far.

[/ QUOTE ]
Yeah, it says that for Longbow. Actually, there were a few mistakes in what I typed, like "burning enemies alive" and a mention of the evening news.

Oddly enough it /is/ possible to target a Forcefield Generator and actually use Equip on it. It will not get the entire animation, but flare up in sparks, and it will not get upgraded.

Possibly future feature? Or one that was tossed out of Beta?

[/ QUOTE ]
A harmless bug, like being able to use Equip Robot on a Mu Guardian ally that appears in a mission that Seer Marino gives.
Yes, it does make no sense.

YOU SHALL RUE THE DAY YOU BEGAN TO CROSS ME! Now... go. Begin your ruing.

So I was on with my SG on Champion a while ago, and we were doing the Positron TF. At one point, we were ambush right in front of Positron and Valkyrie. So here's all these guys shooting at us, trying to kill us, and Mr. Bigshot "I got my armor upgraded" and Ms. "I have this fancy spear that none of you can get!" are just kinda standing there watching.

THANKS A LOT, LEGENDARY HEROES!

Seriously, though, it would be cool if the trainers got some sort of automated power similar to the police drones. There's just something wrong about the eight most famous heroes in all of Paragon city standing there watching you get pounded on.

All that crap is grey to me, no XP.

[/ QUOTE ]
You mean you aren't 50? Where you ain't getting XP anyway?

Malta are the main reason I use hover nowadays... stupid tasers... suddenly those machine guns that tickle start to hurt...

[ QUOTE ]
A guy firing a six-shooter from the hip having range (and by that I mean better than anything a Blaster has) is flatout wrong.

What are you talking about? I've never been killed by a gunslinger, only to have him teleport next to my corpse when he was done with me

[/ QUOTE ]
I've never been killed by a gunslinger period... unless we're talking about the Lts. with their annoying cryo bullets... but I only see those on teams.

Their range is stupid, though...

[ QUOTE ]

I'm of the opinion that the whole effort in putting for th the measure is a waste of time in the first place. Be as stringent as you like, it's not going to stop Powerlevelers- a group of people who are:

A) A minority,

[/ QUOTE ]
Doesn't seem to be a minority to me... I get at least 1 "wanna bridge" tell each time I log on. And then there's those times where someone in my SG has to log, and we need someone to SK the person said SG-mate was SKing. That usually takes us 10 minutes, because it seems everyone that LFT WANTS TO BRIDGE! [ QUOTE ]
and

B) Do not affect the game for the rest of us in any quanitifiable way.

[/ QUOTE ]
People said Kraken farming wasn't affecting the game in any way. Oh, look! Kraken farmers got the XP for the Sewer trial nerfed!

[ QUOTE ]
SO what precisely is the point of employing a measure that will profoundly affect ALL of us in order to get at a small percentage of the playerbase that isn't hurting any of us in the first place?

Pointless.

[/ QUOTE ]
Doesn't seem THAT pointless....

Currently the Weight Classes are as such:

Strawweight-(Level 1 to 4)

[/ QUOTE ]
Maybe I should make a PvP character just for that weight class... name him Straw Hat. His battle cry? "I bring you flowers and a .22 with shells!"

[ QUOTE ]
Brekkee - *XenoVolt* How does it feel being kidnapped by Tyrant, over and over again?
Statesman - Strangely, I find that we both have a lot in common.

[/ QUOTE ]
L-O-L.

[ QUOTE ]
Brekkee - *Placater* What type of incentives will there be for arena battles? For instance, for winning a battle will you gain experience, get enhancements, new temporary powers, or maybe a trophy?
Statesman - In the Arena, a player can "bet" Influence and win titles ("Middleweight Champion", etc.)


[/ QUOTE ]
GAMBLING! YAY!

[ QUOTE ]
Brekkee - *Tal-N* Question for the devs: With the server populations being so thin at higher levels, especially at 30+, does the arena have any options which allow higher level players to always find a worthy opponent in the arena? Such as an auto-sidekicking or auto-exemplaring system which allows everyone to compete fairly with everyone else reguardless of levels?
Statesman - Yes, we have an auto-exemplar feature...so that high level players will automatically drop to the level of their opponents. No sidekicking, though.

[/ QUOTE ]
Ahh... no tempting lowbies to a battle with an obscene amount of influence.

[ QUOTE ]
If you are an Inv/SS Tank you have four powers that are utter crap!

Hand Clap.....Hurl....Rage......Unstoppable......

[/ QUOTE ]
I have a friend with an Inv/SS tank. He likes Hand Clap. It's a nice way to grab aggro for him. He hasn't gotten Foot Stomp yet, but still.
He likes Hurl. He feels it's nice to have a ranged attack outside of temp powers.

WAIT, WAIT, WAIT... No more bosses for my blaster unless I want to get hammered?

I liked wailing on that named Council Boss, leading him through my Trip Mines, and coming out victorious with only a sliver of health at the end! It was quite the rush.

Well... my controller will like this... *glares at the nearest Bone Daddy*

/me is too lazy to read the rest of the thread.

[ QUOTE ]
A solo player (unless the mission calls specifically for a boss in a spawn override) will create spawns with minions and lts. ONLY.

[/ QUOTE ]

States, it has been the experience of a great many players (mentioned on other threads) that *multiple* unnamed bosses show up on missions that they entered alone.

You say above that the spawn override takes place when a mission calls for *a* boss - does this mean that ordinarily, missions entered by a single player should not spawn more than one boss?

[/ QUOTE ]
I'd like to know this too. The other day, I was wrapping up the General Z arc. Last mish. Entered. Very quickly ran into a Jump Bot. Using almost all my defense, end recovery, and healing inspirations, I beat him. As I walk through the mission, I see a named Jumpbot. I shimmy past him. Then I run into another Jumpbot, unnamed. I turn tail. Then I open a door. A RED JUMPBOT! 4 JUMPBOTS IN ONE MISH!
Thankfully, these were Incinerators. Granted, they had very long range assault rifles that they could use to 4-shot me, but still. I was lucky to get a team to defeat them all. The whole team died trying to kill the red Jumpbot (darn explosion).
Really... PLEASE!

I was wondering who took the name "ninja pirate" in Test...


[/ QUOTE ]
Wasn't me, oddly. I have a character on Guardian named Pirate-Ninja that I copied over to test... I was quite surprised how THAT was still available, on both test and Guardian. So, bug someone else about that.

[ QUOTE ]
And now the world will explode for your pleasure and amusement, as two pirating ninjas is too much for reality to withstand.

We knew Louis Train would win Most Humorous. Now we have to see him in the CoH comic... ah, well.

If only the runner-up for Most Daring... fit... into her costume better.
