    Excellent - time for a third account methinks.
  2. I'd drop your proposal to Bridger in a private email and maybe get some feedback here first.

    Also, I think your timing is too soon - they'll need time to prepare for such an event, and would probably tie it into the 2nd year anniversary of COV.

    Still, I'd be happy to give my support to such a week - I've got some great low level alts. Now if I could only find a team when I start that doesn't have someone insulting folk left, right and centre

    Recharges?

    I've got Ninjitsu and no Hasten, so I'm going to slot with the Recharge.

    Thanks Chelsea.

    Recharges?

    Is it worth putting a recharge in an Assassin's Strike?

    I ask because I've currently got Assassin's Blade with 2 Acc/3 Dam and I find myself waiting for it to come back on the odd occassion after placating someone.

    Is it worth the single recharge? I've never seen a guide that's got it, but I think it'll work with my playstyle.

    Advice please?
  5. I'm teaming with a Kinetics right now who has taken Hover and is using it in conjuction with Siphon Speed to move around very quickly.

    An Odious Ode

    Heh heh - that's brilliant. Rabbie would be proud.
  7. I've just recently started one - got addicted to the idea of striking from the shadows again.

    So far, I'm loving it - it is completly different from playing a scrapper and, now that I've just got placate, I'm loving the sheer gumption of the whole set. Drop one, fight the next, wave hand in final opponents face, before dropping them again.

    Haven't felt this evil since shooting someone in the back of the head with a gun during Issue 7 test.
  8. I love the idea of that tactic - think the next time I roll a tank, I'll give it a try.

    Thanks for the heads up.

    If he said he was always the team leader of his team and perhaps someone who decides on a team dynamic would it be different?

    Some team dynamic to kamikaze a room of 30 or more CoT on a stalker, bring on a teamwipe, then boast "THERE!! AT LEAST I DID SOMETHING INSTEAD OF TALKING!!!!". All this while blaming the guy who said "wow thats a lot! Do you think we should pull them, i have a very long range attack".

    Last night's short lived team:

    After doing one mission, where the aforementioned individual stood around chatting during it, but not taking part (apparently afk still means you can chat, but not take part; must have missed that one), we entered the next mission where the TL said "Everyone be careful."

    I responded, "Careful's my middle name " and his immediate response was "No, your middle name is coward."

    Not wanting to put up with this, I quickly leave the team and he follows me out the mission, private telling me how much fun he's going to have putting this up on the forums and that I was now on his ignore list, "along with all the Paragon Defenders...?! Yeah, because I care who else you've got on your ignore list, why?

    Given that I did nothing more than I've stated here, I found this attitude nothing short of dreadful.

    If he can lead a successful team then I suspect we have a different criteria of what "success" is.

    Sorry, you are teaching someone how to play to YOUR rules. your rules seem to consist of the following:

    1, Defender Must == Healer. If Defender =\= Healer then said Defender < Empath.
    2, Tanks and Scrappers And Blasters > Defenders and Controllers.
    3, Everyone on the team must listen to you and your word is final.

    All three of the above are... Incorrect.

    Having teamed with this person I believe you are right on the bullseye.

    Having also had this same misfortune recently, I'd just like to agree.

    This has nothing to do with Marks and Spencers.

    You saying they're small and squishy?

    that's more appropriate than is decent to describe on these boards you know.

    Surely that should be earth tanks?

    Stand next to a transforming Peacebringer or Warshade and say that.

    Yeah, point. A little obscure though.

    True, but I'll wear a t-shirt with an obscure phrase on it, over a "Cool! Girlz have bewbies"-type statment any day

    1- Many builds I have seen on the boards only use one accuracy enhancement in each attack. When I was with my team fighting +2 lieuts and bosses or +3 minions or so, I missed quite too much, and so I thought it would be good to add a second accuracy enhancement in each attack. Sure I could use the slots elsewhere but I have all my attacks two-slotted for accuracy and three-slotted for damage. Is this overkill? Should I use one acc-three dam-one rech ?

    [/ QUOTE ]If you're fighting +3's or higher, you'll want two acc. But then, why would you be?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I've always slotted 2 accuracies and I usually only fight +1's, maybe +2's.

    I definitely feel like I'm missing less, and so would recommend it for that reason alone. As per usual though, your actual mileage may vary.
  23. In order to access Supergroup bases, you require to own both City Of Heroes and City Of Villains or have bought the combined GvE pack which has both of them, or just have bought COV on its own.

    If you only own City Of Heroes, then you cannot create or enter a SG Base.

    Hope this doesn't dampen your enthusiasm.

    Welcome to the game and the forums.
  24. I'd guess that it'd either be before the Player meet in February or between that and the one in March...

    Of course, that's assuming the US has a regard for where people like Bridger are during one of the busiest weekends in game etc. etc....
