  1. I only said that because any mention of Gravity on these boards automatically means some folks pick up their pitchforks and torches and burn effigies of the devs.

    I ran a grav/thorns all the way to 50 and it was very enjoyable. Wormholing a mob onto a patch of Thorntrops was very satifying. I'm currently running a grav/NRG and it's been very fun as well.

    It really depends on your playstyle. For more AoE, you'd probably want to choose Fire, Psi or Thorns. Single target would be NRG, Ice or Electric. Just note that once you get Singularity, you'll be blasting a ton more.

    HTTT Reunion?

    The level range for my MA arc is 1-54 since they're custom critters, so it should scale to our appropriate level. I'll double check it when I get home from work to make sure since I made it a while ago. I have a defender around our current level, so that would be a good litmus test.

    I just got back from a month out of the country and a friend of mine in the group mentioned this to me. I've had trouble leveling doms in the past, but this sounds like fun. Additionally, I already have a dom on Pinnacle around level 20 so sounds like I can fit right in.

    Miss Hysteria is Mind/Psi, and I believe she is Magic origin. However, she is more Goth than Old English in look. I hope joining with an existing toon is acceptable. I'll get on tonight to made sure she's up to snuff and maybe catch an sgi.

    Edit: I'd love to join the SF tomorrow as well. I'll make sure she's at least 20.

    Woot, King is in!

    I'd also like to see if we could run my MA arc before we do Silver Mantis. I rant it a few times solo to get a feel for the powers I chose for my baddies, but I've yet to run it on larger teams to see how it goes.

    I spent a good amount of time on the story when it was in beta, so I hope everyone likes it. Arc ID is 2825 if anyone wants to take a peek at it ahead of time.
  4. Get rid of Dimension Shift and take Bonesmasher instead.

    DS will get most likely get you kicked from a team that either doesn't understand the power or is more than capable of killing mobs quickly.

    Bonesmasher is great single target damage and it animates fast.

    Yeah, yeah, i know it was no speed run, but that's pretty good for a bunch of actual 15-20 toons using generic IOS with minimal stealth and tp capability.

    You guys were using IOs? I don't bother slotting until 22 anymore.
  6. Update your graphics card drivers. That should do the trick.
  7. I had an idea about Power Customization, but not sure if it was already mentioned - and there's plenty of pages of junk to sift through to try and see if this was mentioned, but here goes.

    Since the colors are "baked into" the powers, it may be possible to make several color choices available. What I mean is for example, the electric blast set is blue heroside and they made it red for villains. Using that same premise they could possibly make electric into any color. If they made say 10 different colors of electric, you could choose one from a list similar to the way you choose your weapon today.

    I hope this makes sense.
  8. Can you please post the release notes in the forums for those of us that can't get to gaming sites at work?

    Thanks!
  9. I think they forgot to add the "DOOOOM" shield to both heroes and villains.
  10. The Sonic Dispersion Bubble issue from the thread I started.
  11. I tried the "new" Lord of the Rings MMO and it's a lot a lot like WoW. So much for slapping on a coat of paint and calling it new.

    CoH/CoV are always consistently fun when I play... except recently because no one wants my 37 /rad corruptor on their team. *grumbles*

    I can start it around 5-6pm myself, but if that's too late I understand. Tempted to bring my FF/Psi this time, and should give plenty of time to make it to tonight's Hami raid.

    If this is EST, count me in with my dark/dark .

    I have a Geforce 6200 in my laptop and my roommate has a 7800, both experiencing performance issues in battles, d/c's, etc. since I8.

  14. Female vest only gets 4 whole glove options. Right now I only get monsterous, smooth, spiked and banded. It's sleeveless, so all glove options should be available.
  15. I'm playing Devil's Advocate for a sec:

    What about the people that only have CoV? Don't you think they are elated to get new content after having a toon stalled at 40 for 4 months while their hero counterparts are strolling around at 50?

    I think Abe Lincoln said it best: You can please some of the people some of the time, but you can't please all of the people all of the time.
  16. You think defiance stinks, try vigilance on a defender .

    I generally play a En/Rad Corruptor.

    CoH characters include an AR/Fire Blaster and a Claws/Invul Scrapper.

    Wow, a dev using the /fire set for blasters? It's not a great set. I'm surprised that with a dev using it, changes haven't been made to it. And yes, I'm familiar with the set since I have a 48 fire/fire blaster .
