    IO 5 Set rule?

    Say you are getting 5% Recharge from Doctored Wounds.

    If you were getting 5% Recharge from another set, you would be at 'cap' for that bonus and it would be ignored.

    So for ex:

    5 LOTG = 5 x 7.5%
    Your Snipe set wouldn't add its 7.5%, but the rest of the bonuses would still happen.
  2. Explorer

    Explorer: 73%
    Socializer: 53%
    Killer: 53%
    Achiever: 20%
  3. You can level pretty quicky in AE or through various farm setups.

    Before you do that though, you should try a little of everything. If you are on heroside try the Eden Trial at 39-41 (even with the reduced reward the maps are still worth it), the Hydra Trial is more challenging in the 36-40 range I believe...then there are the various story arcs, some longish....from Crimson, Indigo, Maria Jenkins and so on.
    Redside, Seer Marino's arc is pretty nice and Vernon Von Grun's stories at higher levels are great too.

    Some of the game even has unlockable contacts, like Ernesto Hess in Striga, the Cavern of Transcendance contact in Hollows, Viridian villainside and so on.

    Even though the game is essentially: enter a box, defeat foes in box, exit box...there is some decent story background to be seen.

    Thank you Devs

    Geas of the Kind Ones, looks like. A Badge-Hunter patch changed it from the Green 'clock' a while back, iirc.
  5. Make the "Healer Requesters" go away...I was on my Emp/Psy getting ready for an Arena match and this tell:

    "Need healer. Atlas plz."

    'You know...it's actually better if I Fortitude, Adrenalin Boost, RA and attack as well.'

    "Need healer."

    So I amble over to Atlas. There's a Granite Tanker (35) an Energy Blaster (5), a AR Blaster (12), a Spine Scrapper (16) and me (50). They are fighting 52s(!) and taking forever to defeat stuff.

    After three minutes I faked a DC and went into /hide.

    This is also happening Villainside, where my Therm gets spammed for "Healer" invites...despite the fact my Shields, buffs and Tier 8/9 in Thermal are far more useful?

    The ability to revert mez resistance to mez protection in the Arena.

    Yes please...and do this yesterday.

  7. 1)Merged Markets
    2)Higher purple drop rate
    3)Cell phone earlier on all CoH contacts.
  8. Yes, I'm stockpiling.

    Of course, the problem is...Redside I am sitting on inf on several alts but the stufff I want just isn't there at all (various procs for example).

    I'm gonna roll one. Wonder what the animation for AS is.

    *Stalker gently taps on shoulder*
    *Stalker withdraws Broadword from back, PUMMELS target over head as with a shovel*

    In all seriousness, probably will be a crouch animation with a forward motion of the sword...now if we could get Shield Defense so we could hide behind the shield and go BOO!

  10. Issue 16: United Colours of Positron

    Issue 16: The Colours Out of Place
    Issue 16: Prismatic Babylon
    Issue 16: Kaleidoscope
  11. If it lists fog of war and reveals glowies/hostages as well, could be a real boon for speed TFs/hard to find hostages/glowies.

    Nice perk
  12. Big bubble will be either PINK or a golden/darkish bronze colour. Friend bubbles will be changed to darker hues.

    Regen will be fiddled with so it's not green all the time.

    My freaking Electric Blasts/whichever REDSIDE aren't staying RED, that's for sure! They're getting tinted to match my favourite costume.
  13. Hi Cassie, speaking as someone in the Pinn PvP League

    It's one match per team (wish it were 2 out of 3 but I guess people don't all have time for it) and we aren't disabling Heal Decay, sadly .

    As for no-shows, what we've done with our team is...if your team is there, send a global to their team and set something up or set something up on the boards here.

    DCs have been pretty easygoing, we've restarted if someone DCd in the first minute or so and not late in the game.
  14. The TF staying the same is fine and reasonable.
    I am just giddy that I can bump up the difficulty this way, if only because it will let me stress-test builds.

    Also...

    PINK BUBBLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    That is an awesome option. No more fill requests. I probably can get even level AVs without going Invincible from what it sounds like. That feature may be my favorite.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    If they let us solo TFs/Trials the smileys will go into overload!

  16. I won't need to ask in coalition to get padders for my Plant/Psi or Fire/Rad sooooooooo happy!



  17. /Perfect_Pain

    So glad this feature is added, giddy with joy!

  18. As long as this lets me solo TFs as well, I'll be more than happy.

    Actually

    issue 16 info

    LOVE the difficulty setting change.
    LOVE the power tinting.

    Freaking LOVE all the powerset proliferation...how is BaBs still alive after all this work? SOmeone give him a large root beer and some donuts...

    Phase Shift

    They lowered it party for PvE reasons (you could run around intangd and click glowies for a while, iirc and run under Hami to get the badge, etc etc) and partly for PvP reasons (Emps and other characters would Phase to avoid spiking and it would be up fairly quickly, meaning you'd need to really be on the ball to get a kill).

    As Felicia said, if you have Phase you can now attack a Phased character as well.
  21. Neuronia

    Phase Shift

    Puts an Intangible/OAS on you, down for two minutes.
    Most of my toons have Phase so let me check quickly...yep, you get a NoPhase buff that expires after two minutes.

    I'd still have about a dozen purpled chars. And I'd still have hundreds of IOs in base storage that are worth a lot. I'd probably sell the IOs I don't need, plus farm and Marketeer like mad to buy up the really good stuff while prices are still low.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    This. I have enough in storage that I'd make the inf back in no time flat on both sides.
  23. Yeah yeah, my play partner and I got it.

    The emotes are VERY cool as are the CC emotes. The goggles are nice and the gender changing/super Icon are nice.

    From a personal point of view, I'd rather have a temp power (even with a long recharge) to the Icon-type thing...but it fits the concept of the Science lab/booster/theme.

    Good work on this.
  24. Yep yep...got any alts purpled Nether? Over here it's mostly PvP or vanity toons...

    What exactly *is* the policy anyway? I'm tired of losing theme or homage characters...

    If it's really blatant (Claw/Regen W0lv3r1n3) you'll get the costume genericed as well as the name. I still have my "Bride" from Kill Bill in the yellow jump suit ungenericed, but I don't play her much so I'm not tempting fate.

    Likewise, my Omega Red tribute has been ungenericed for sometime...if it gets petitioned and it's blatant you might lose it. If it's closer to a 'homage' you might get away with it.

    Either way, it's always safer to just be creative over a pastiche.
