    Really? What kind of corrupter and defender are you running that will out tank any scrapper? Cuz I call B.S.

The reason that the difficulty slider was added was to address player requests for greater challenges.

    Neither of those mechanics was put in game to address a pure and simple "I want it even though it doesn't really change the game". The difficulty options changed the game significantly and promise to do even more when I16 is released (re: tomorrow). Power Customization promises to do the exact same thing, especially since it's a logical extension of the numerous other cosmetic customizations we've had since the very beginning.
    .
    First, I'm guessing i16 tomorrow too(and hoping since it is my day off this week).

    Second, I agree that sharing loot between characters isn't nearly as big a deal as the i16 goodies, what I'm saying is if people didn't want them, then there would be no reason to add them in.
  3. Also, I'm still waiting for somebody to give any actual downsides to the idea.

    Saying that it hasn't been done yet is simply stating a fact so stupidly obvious that there really isn't a point to posting it. What is so bad about making this easier for people? What harm could it possibly do to anybody?

    Sorry for the double post, but for some ******* reason when I try to edit my post or quick reply I have serious issues.

    Because people want it and would use it is the most substantive reason there is. After all, that is the reason power customization and the difficulty slider were added.

I don't need to transfer inf around because I've learned how to use what the game has in it to make all the inf I need. Earning inf is not hard at all. It's so easy that I don't see a good enough reason to have a global bank at all. The only thing I ever move from toon to toon are recipes and IOs, And that's only because I don't like to buy something that I have on another toon.
    So because you wouldn't use it/don't need it, then it shouldn't be added? That makes sense.

    The fact that influence is stupid easy to make isn't relevant in any way. This isn't something that is needed, just a big QoL suggestion so people don't have to jump through as many hoops.

    Honestly I never got people with self centered attitudes like yours.

    Exactly, although I will admit if you were one of the posters that we see constantly starting flame wars I might be inclined to screw with you for ***** and giggles.

    I disagree. A good percentage of the time somebody will come in with a rude tone. Whether or not that tone was intentional isn't relevant, it's still there. Now that doesn't excuse OPs often freaking out over it, but often times the OP isn't the original instigator, the OP is usually the person that turns the flaming up a notch.

    edit: I was responding to post 49, not the one directly above me
  8. /signed, this should be added ASAP. Currently there isn't a valid argument as to why we don't have the ability to transfer money and items between characters. Not allowing us to do it is backwards thinking. Does anybody have a real reason why we shouldn't be able to do this?

    Also, I want City Vault still. But I don't think we will ever get it. It was nothing more than a big screw up.
  10. Personally I would pick a blaster over a tank when soloing. Damage is king.

    I have seen at least one of every other combination, but I have never laid eyes on a Psychic/Fire blaster of any level, let alone a 50.
    That's actually my next planned blaster. I haven't created it yet because I'm working on a couple scrappers, but the plan is to make it after I finish my Spines/Elec Armor Scrapper.

    Just looking at the numbers it appears you can get a really nice ST chain going.
  12. With fire as my secondary I figured I would run maybe the demon map or something similar for fun, so mitigation isn't a huge concern for me. On top of the fire resist I'll also have 31.7 melee and 27.something ranged defense, at least that is what my first draft build looks like.
  13. Question: Would fitting Sweeping Strike into the BF>Sweeping Combo attack chain be a good idea? I realize it's not part of the Sweep Combo, it is another cone and seems to do good damage.

    What if?

    I'd probably take a break as I'm starting to get a little burnt out. But i16 has me excited again.

    2. No other player would be able to interfere with your mission in any way. Until recently when I joined in on CO's beta testing, I had never experienced the phenomenon of "ninja-ing." That is, another player hanging just close enough to steal your rewards from a fight. I'm not very fond of it.
    Might have trouble with this one. With missions liek this spawn camping is gonna happen.
  16. Thanks for the info Umbral.

    That's currently what I'm doing(lvl 39), but I'm looking to free up some power choices so I can fit in tough/weave and physical perfection. I'm not even sure I'm gonna go for it, just looking at some options.
  17. If I wanted to run BF--Sweep combo non stop how much recharge would I need in each power?
  18. I'm all for this, I love options! Even the people that would hate something like this wouldn't have to do it. I see no downside. /signed times 1000

    Well the small handful of bannings and temp bans didn't hurt either. There were a couple of three day bans handed out by Ex Libris that were quite surprising. Mods were going crazy. I personally found the S&I forums quite fun and amusing back then. I would say they were kinda like PWNZ forum, but not as civil.

    I don't object to the idea of a double merit weekend.
    I don't support it either.

    I don't really care about merits. If I could give mine away I would.

    Heresy over. Let the stoning begin.
    No stoning, just give your merits to me.

    Good point
  22. For game balance reasons I don't think this is a good suggestion.

    Thought I'm not concerned about the rich vs. poor player argument. People with more money can get nicer stuff. That's life.
  23. I would love a double merit weekend. Would be fun times.
  24. I bought my lottery tickets today. I'm ready to win some influence.

    Sounds like you don't know what you're talking about. Also, what is and isn't ok in Lotro isn't relevant here.
