    This is VERY INTERESTING to me as I often have costume ideas that are far beyond the bounds of my modest construction abilities.

    How did you go about finding a manufacturer? Did you have to send them a pattern, or just a visual reference?

    reminds me, I should post some shots from the party....

    whoohoo, welcome aboard!


    give a shout out in the market global, there's usually someone on who can shoot you an invite.

    It's crazy to think how miserable and poor we all used to be!

    Good to know.

    I was leading my chain off with Whirling Axe then dropping Pendulum at the end, and it was boosting my recharge enough that I had to worry about end for the first time since he picked up Stamina, but I'll check the times and make sure I'm not stepping on my own toes.

    In other news, I was sure they were going to nerf that farm with today's patch, but it was still working this AM. Guess the spiderbots distracted 'em!
  6. If you need anything TR give a shout- I'll be buying salvage by the truckload for Crafticus again, it'd be no problem to stock some bins for ya.

    Also, I could probably turn stuff into components....doesn't that kind of thing count toward crafting badges? My eventual goal after finishing off Field Crafter it to get ALL the crafting badges.
  7. my fire/rad loves the purple chance to hold in his Fire Cages.
  8. I haven't followed this sub-debate, but really who gives a care? It's what, seven bucks for the 'item pack'? Unless you're living in your parent's game room and eating stewed tomatoes from a can that's pocket change.
  9. I shelved Crafticus for the duration of the Halloween event- between that and the MA farming going on a lot of commons got too rich for his blood.

    I'll be back in the mix tomorrow, presuming the patch up the MA holes and the Rikti drop salvage....
  10. okay, I grabbed two force feedback +recharges tonight, stuck them in Whirling Axe and Pendulum..........and WOW!


    0.0


    Granted I was running a hardcore MA farm map so results were skewed, but still.....WOW!


    anybody with an Axe anything, run don't walk to slot those babies in your AoEs.

    Can't wait to get the Armageddon chance for fire damage in my Blazing Aura...

    well let's be fair, gathering evidence and conducting experiments is lots harder than just pulling unsupported statements out of your pants and pretending they're graven in stone.

    =p

    the fact that all the people who've 'done the work' so to speak see things one way and the ones that haven't done anything (and refuse to do anything, other than keep insisting on their unsupported 'facts') see it another way....well, that kinda speaks for itself.

    cause that would explain much.
  13. It was a long while back and I try to forget the 'Dark Times', but I remember having a bit of surplus inf in the mid to late 30's, and by the time I hit 50 there was enough on hand that I could afford to play 'sugar daddy' for some of my friends.

    They threw a lot of mud at the wall with GR, there's no telling what's going to stick.

    thanks for tracking down the post, I'm hopeless when it comes to searching!
  16. strange to me that some people care about getting a power, especially since with the exception of Ninja Run they've all been fairly underwhelming and/or unpredictable, as befits a paid extra. 'a power' is literally the last thing I think about when I'm pondering whether or not to drop a few bucks on these things.

    Different strokes, and all that.
  17. goat holiday cheer
    aroma of burning inf
    wafting from the fire
  18. I'm already looking forward to Halloween 2011 and the resumption of GG's jihad against the Malleus badge!

  20. Doing fine, aside from getting logged out of the forums every so often.
    got a bunch of work done earlier, looking forward to checking my market traps when I get home and seeing which of my fire tanks recipe bids came through. Browsing everybody's halloween pics on Facebook.
    Listening to New Order, considering getting another cup of coffee before I clock out.....y'know, the usual.

    Yes.

    Also, the past few days it's started rejecting my password and not letting me log back in for a variable length of time, which makes me think this is some sort of progressive instability.

    If they're not going to un-$%*#&* whatever settings they borked a while back, someone could at least key us in on what's happening.


    /edit
    complaint about nonresponsiveness retracted, Ocho posted that they're trying to track down the bug in that other thread.

    *hoovesup*

    XD
    HAH that's great.


    One of the pals I started the game with had an eb/dev blaster named GayCop (with outfit to match) and we always got a kick out of the great NPC dialog it generated.
