  1. Thanks. I thought it was all enemies, not ambushes. I guess I've been lucky to not even experience having ambushes follow me in recent memory.
  2. I recall, at some point waaay back, the change was announced that mobs would now follow you down elevators. Therefore, the quick save by ducking downstairs would not happen anymore. I thought it went through, but clearly now that function isn't there. Anyone have more on this?
  3. Also had this happen to me in Bricks a few weeks back. The GM immediately told me that this was a known issue to the development team. The mission was one from a story arc from Janet Kellum. Edit: ticket #090926-000913

    I got a kick out of this.

    1 - Peititon in game when it happens.

    2 - Pretty sure unless it's a big weekend for testing, they tend to not go in to kick the copy tool when it goes down after Friday work hours.

    This appears to be the case. I was trying since Friday. It's now Monday afternoon, and, after a petition, my transfers went through, as well as some new ones.
  6. First try - image expired.

    Second try- all went through, although very slowly.

    Charged for two codes! (Didn't hit refresh, hmm....)

    Or it could be Rome Car I, which means we'll get vehicles!! Looking forward to the chariots and the Ferraris.

  9. Coming back to an old thread, I have to once again thank Supatroll for a fantastic guide. I based my build off of it, made some mods and went to town. WOW- I've had one hell of a good time with this character. Teammates love the -res and, of course, Dreadful Wail (who doesn't?!). I routinely get "you messed them up bad!" after this rather blapperish toon lets loose. He is great solo and in teams. I've also found that he's quite endurance efficient.

    For my epic, I chose Force. Nothing else really fit my concept, I wanted the extra defense, and it was a set I've never tried. It makes a sweet "Oh Crap" set. Temp Invul + PFF usually gets me a few moments to get out of the red when I'm soloing and in trouble. Decided against FoN, and got Boost Range instead. I think some of Sonic has some pretty decent range, and this only helps it.

    My build is below, but , of course, your mileage may vary. (Currently at lvl 47.5, going to add -end to Boost Range, it's the only time I have -end problems)

  10. Congrats to the team. Seems like one helluva effort!
  11. This is a fantastic guide! Very solid. Not just the build itself, but the write-up previous to it.

    I tweaked it a tiny bit for my toon (I'm a fan of Fly, so I picked Hover and Fly relatively early), but mostly stuck to it, especially for slotting. I'm having a helluva good time with it (@28 as of this post).
