Quote:Give me full detail and information where you got this assumption from. If you cannot do this, it is an opinion, and your just gnashing teeth. I have not seen a drop on population, people leave and come all the time in MMOs. I have no problem finding teams when I want them on Triumph, on of the smaller server pops.Even Though I have just replied and fear I will repeat my self. Samuel I can See that you joined in 2004. Certainly YOU can see the hugh reduction in players. Do you truly believe that this "Turbo power leveling" had no effect in the reduction of players? I submit to you that the more available and easier power leveling has become that the number of players has decreased.
So for people saying they cannot find a team they are not using all the tools they got. For the XP leveling speed, I level quickly cause my diffs are always "high". I rarely run on the lowest difficulty. It does not bother me how much I faceplant, or whatever, I am learning what my toons can do and I am having fun even if I am leveling quickly.
Then for the missing content, I always miss arcs and all that on the way to 50, I hand pick what arcs I wanna play and go from there, make a path that makes sense to my character. I always have oro to back me up if I want to play old arcs again. There is so many tools out there you can use to curve your xp, do old arcs, and everything else in game, you had to learn them, it was not just thrusted on you.
This is the same with the new guys that come in and play they MAY miss the content and level to fifty quicker than you want, but if they enjoyed the ride they will make more, try different stuff and find out what makes the game great. If they just hit the cap then quit, then they had no interest sticking around in general. It is simple as that. -

Quote:So what about EQ, WoW? If you want to call out CoH on this? You pay to play, then have to buy the expansion afterward to get the other stuff they come out with.Hey, he's a paying customer. One path to ruining a pay to play MMO is to go berserk with micro transactions so you have to pay the monthly fee and then shell out more to get the perks that make game play fun. That business model works for free MMO's, but it's dangerous for a pay to play MMO. I don't think Ninja Run is stepping across the line personally, but it's definately closer than any of the other boosters.
On topic; the Ninja Sprint is nice, complete fluff to add in the game which gives people some more RP styles for their toons, and a nice power to use as a travel if you want. Nice addition, and good times. -
Quote:Ah he is still the gov't though and the UN and Statesman recognizes the Isles as a county. This does happen in RL...but that is much aside from the point and sidetracking.Not if their government is illegal, which it is -Recluse took power in a coup.
They are still a recognized Country with a "stable" government leading them, and their laws must be respected. Ms. Liberty does not totally believe in it (like you for this :P), which is starting some international flares of anger due to her stepping over her boundaries. -

Stop with the lies, Triumph knows you and your pantless ways affects the design of the company from the waist up!

Quote:This does make sense too for Pither's arch saving Olivia Darque. If Aeon lost his position of governor due to the PTS problems from Brass' arch, and it was given to Darque, this would infuriate Aeon into tossing Olivia into the Shadow Shard. As it said in the paragonwiki; Aeon tosses people into the Shadow Shard cause he feels like it, so it makes sense that he did it for this reason.Aeon is mentioned as being governor of Cap Au Diable, but Efficiency Expert Pither also says that Olivia Darque is the governess of Aeon City. It's either an error in Pither's text (and error like that by his character is very far out of character), or there's a relationship between Olivia and Aeon we don't know about...
There are actually two missions where you rescue her. One from Peter Themari, and one from Efficiency Expert Pither. You don't know much about her, because not much is said about her.
With the Themari mission, she's said to be an assistant to Marshal Brass, and a big player in Cap Au Diable. With Pither's mission, she's supposedly governess. And that's about all we know about her. -

I dressed up as a NOC employee working a night shift wanting to get drunk with his friends that came down for the weekend.
Specialized I know >.> -
I was working on the Immortal badge then the I16 changes happened and poof. There was immortal for my main badger. Now working on getting it for my stalker for concept reasons.

Heh, I find it funny people need Self Heal with a Bane so badly. Mine trashes mobs on +3/x8 no problem. I laugh all the way to the bank with her.

Quote:Only cause I was that awesome holding all mobs upI made some modifications to the strategy above. After running the SF tonight, I was reminded that the ambushes don't really start until Reichsman takes ~ 5-10% Damage. Once the ambushes start, the team is most safe being in the "foxhole" until the ambushes slow to a trickle.

Yeah I know that also there is a bar in my city called Paragon Studios. Somehow I got mixed up thinking it was the other Paragon when there was a concert going there. lol.

I like that idea. I know when I log in or zone to a diff map I would like to know on some stuff going down I might of missed.

favorite primary power - Necromancy
favorite secondary power - Dark Miasma
favorite costume peice - The Dark Knight's sword (after dark empowerment)
favorite power - Temp power from Barracuda SF or Ghost Storm -
Alright I decided to make a new stalker to play around with. I had some great success with my Nb/regen stalker, so I decided to make a little bit of a tougher stalker to play which is an /elec stalker. I think with siphon life and energize I should not be in much of a problem with healing. Although I am looking for help smoothing out my build it is a bit rough on the surface.
