Can we set the time little early like 1-3pm West Coast? or earlier? let me know what work best for you.
    Might be able to make 6 pm or 7 pm Eastern (so 3-4 pm your time).

    I'll have to ask the rest of the team though, so no promises.
    Also, we need to PM Kat or someone to take line-ups...

    I will trade you my Slaxilina Lolzie, Psomad and MK-Ultra for your Arctic Shu, WELLDONE, Siolfir and SIR.

    P.S. Now you're going to make this happen.

    Also, thx for the heads up on your line up Neuronia .
    NP, it's not like everyone couldn't just log on test and see what we were playing the past two years.

    We HAD this.

    Sonics had to keep up Clarity, cage people, drop Sonic Siphon and keep the shields up.

    Kins had to kite IR, keep SB up, etc.

    FFers could cage, use Force Bolt, use Force Bubble to move people around and put up the small bubles.

    These days, it's Blasters & Emps and a Rad and maybe a Brute. The changes simply didn't need to be this severe, and it's telling that Arena matches use the No Heal Decay and No Travel Suppression options as well.

    PvP Booster Pack

    JUst a booster that would unlock all Accos in PvP only would be awesome...but we're getting more dance emotes, woot.

    No, you'll just TF us in the fayse.

    Seriously though, if Bud could just list his nephew's account on another line, list his accounts on the leader/player #1 line and go from there...

    More people in the ladder >>> less people in the ladder
    More fighting in the ladder >>> more forum drama in the ladder.

    I'd agree with this.

    At the moment I'm alternating buying five rolls fro a Merit or using Merits to buy single recipes for my alts.

    Saving up for purples...not going to happen. Saving up for PvP IOs...not going to happen. I can get these through marketing or sales easily enough (those Panaceas aren't cheap these days though, yikes!).

    As to the OP's question, Synapse never did speak up on the reasoning but I imagine they wanted to dovetail new content tools with easier acquisiton of rewards. It does seem odd that what was 200 Merits and close to 200 million a few weeks ago is now 100 Merits and 100 million on the market, but there we go.
  9. Only for high end stuff like Cathedral of Pain.

    The low-level stuff in Praetoria is tougher than street sweeping Hellions, but I'm still seeing pick-up groups going through it fairly briskly, with a few deaths from ambushes or purple bosses.

    Still seems like the game is fairly easy, some tasks require coordination and a few tasks benefit from coordination + IOs.

    It's not possible for me to care any less about who plays what on whichever account on this team, but I'm just making sure I understand what the problem is here.
    Bud has a ton of accounts and bless him for supporting the game.
    The issue seems to be that his globals were split under two players, so basically his nephew would be on the Cougar Pride account and the Bliss account depending on what was needed.


    Also, champ3v3team.guildportal.com will be posting the schedules as well. There are forums available for you all to shoot the crap away from these forums, heh, and to discuss the games etc.

    What he said.

    If not, at least:

    -Make cages useful
    -Examine DR curves
    -Make shield buffers useful
    -Lower base resists or remove them
    -Buff Assassin's Strike/Blow

    We have five atm...but there are a few teams that need more. Try Oz or Xionian or maybe even ELF STALKER.
  14. The Resistance arc where you have to plant bombs in mailboxes...saw that happen here in the 70s with the FLQ, no thanks.

    Any of the hero arcs that are 15+ missions long and do no more than offer glowie clicks or defeat alls.

    A lot of the low level stuff, honestly. It's running around doing hunts and boss defeats.

    Synapse TF...
  15. I love my Plant/Psi Dom...she's a killing machine at higher levels between Seeds, Creepers, PsyWave, Drain Psyche and the epic blasts.

    I don't know how game-breaking not being perma is anymore; I want all my Doms to be perma, but I also want 4-5 LOTG 7.5s and purples on any toon I like so...grain of salt.

    My current low level Elec/Psy Dominator does fine, I mostly use Domination as an end-refill and extra control valve.
    I do like perma-dom on my Plant Psy though, if only for the recharge boost that it provides...in an ancillary fashion, of course.
  16. If I had some spare inf I'd bet on Oz's team and Killing Machine's team's putting up a good showing. Dark horses one of the dUmb teams or Cam's team.

    I PMd ELF STALKER earlier today about this, but the ELF STALKER's ways are mysterious indeed. Hopefully we'll see his roster later today.

    Looks like we've rescheduled this to a few weeks from now.

    Of course, the 3 v 3 Champ ladder could settle this, kind of...since Exit and Peril are from Opus, Philly is from Con and Joe and I from dUmb...CondUmbOpus?
  18. Peril and everyone, we have a guilportal, cleverly called champion3v3team.guildportal.com

    Drop by and reg whenever you have time.

    Nice to see more teams joining.
  19. I know everyone and their sister has a Stone Tanker, but I am very much in favour of my Stone/Ice Melee...the low-level cone is nice, the ice patch gives great control and the swords do unremarkable damage.

    I'm not noticing the slows so much now, but it is fun when I'm not "Rooted" walking around. Sprint/Rooted toggle whee!
  20. Neuronia

    2 ?s

    About 40ish toons and and a handful have two builds...mostly my pvp alts and a few others with low-high level builds.

  22. Grav/TA haterz!

    Hehehe was fun, <3 Atlas Park on that alt.
  23. What does GDHRT stand for, or is NSFW?
  24. I will not win but I will annoy...Glue Arrow RAWR.

    See you tonight.
