  1. Hmmm.
    Question: Has anyone ever died from falling?
    I know I've gone all the way down to 1 health before, but never died.

    Unless of course I fell into a mob of baddies. Then that was death instantly, but that wasn't in the OP. This was just about receiving damage from falling.

    I think the damage should stay, quit whining.

    Returning

    Yay Welcome back!
    And Oh. Slight warning here:

    Noobs have started attacking AP and Cap.
    So watch out, and tell them where they can get their capes.
  3. Haha. Ah. Okay. Good to know.
    I'll make sure and just stick around in RWZ later in the day. I'll probably get my stuff in a snap.
  4. Basically are there any weekly type Ship raids going on?
    I'd love to know so I can get all of my Vanguard Stuffs.

    Thanks!
  5. I would love to be able to find normal functioning teams in this game anymore. I mean I used to run with teams that were perfect, Tankers would tank, controllers would hold, Scrappers would help with damage along with blasters, and defenders would heal/buff. But nowadays we get Scrappers that stand on the edge and use Shockwave and Torrent because they make for fun powers because they're knocking the mob around....

    Yea. Something is a little off

    Claws/? For PvP?

    Thanks a bunch for the response, and I ended up just telling myself that nothing is Uber in PvP anymore and threw together a Claws/SR and named it after my Cat. Lol

    But hey, I'll keep all those stupid options in mind. (Flurry/Kick/Boxing/AS/Jump Kick)

    DB/DM

    Lol, I'm not a person that can tell you if you've picked the right powers or not. But, the only think I don't like about /dark is that it's going to hide your blades with Cloak of Darkness, so you'll just be a black blob moving awkardly and slashing. lol

    But hey, That's just me. ;P
  9. Just gonna throw this out there that Arch/Mental has been mowing down mobs for a while now. I've never actually considered TA to go with anything other than Arch. It would be an interesting combo, but hey, it's your character. Just know that the Blaster will do a lot more damage than the defender will, and who knows. Maybe you'll find the next farmer. Heh heh heh.

    Claws/? For PvP?

    I love claws, so don't tell me it's bad. But I would just like to know which is the best bet in Survivability in PvP.

    I don't farm 200,000 times a day, so I would like to have something that doesn't require a crap load of inf to make semi-survivable.

    I've never had Invuln for scrap, and if it turns out to be that, yay. If not, Oh well! Lemme know!

    Does AE need XP?

    Whooaaaa. People like to talk a lot.
    I'm not going to quote anyone, and I'm not going to counteract some people's posts. I'm just gonna give my opinion...
    Yay!

    Anyways, I can see this as being a good idea, maybe taking exp out of the equation would be understandable, because I'm going to have to agree with people when they say that there are level 45's out there who don't have a clue about what they're doing. Take today for example. I was running around in an AE mish and I was with a full team of 8. Almost all of them were above 40, but there was one particular scrapper I noticed that was just standing around on the outside edges and using Shockwave and torrent. (Both do knockback and mediocre amounts of damage). So I stopped and checked out his info. He was claws/regen... and he hadn't taken Integration. The ONLY toggle power in all of regeneration. I asked him why and he simply said "I took the one that had toxic, smashing and lethal resistence, it's better."
    My jaw dropped.

    There are a thousand other stories just like this one, ones where emp defenders have a couple heals and the medicine pool, ones where some defenders try to be blasters. It goes on and on. I'm simply saying that people need to just calm down on the AE mishes. Sure it's fine to have a couple of them here and there, but not all the time.

    Maybe throw an XP cap on there, there's a ticket cap per mission, so why not throw an xp one on there as well?

    But that's just my 2 cen.... er... dollar. I typed more than I thought I would.
  12. So having a Katana/Inv wouldn't be a bad idea?
    I know this may seem to be off topic of the OP, but hey, gotta get my advice somewhere, right?
  13. When you do dual builds and one is Crab and the other is Bane you get stuck with the scary backpack on your bane. Is there a way to get rid of the backpack on the bane? I'm really wanting to go only Bane, he makes me do a happy dance.
  14. Also a couple changes in the sounds. Apparently I'm the only one who noticed.

    They changed the door opening sounds and the water sounds.
    Instead of the water exploding when you hit it, it now sort of just kinda sloshes... Like it's supposed to.

    And Finally, Not all the doors need WD40!!
  15. Is it really that difficult to make all orange clothed people?
    Put 'em in all orange and call 'em stupid names like Johnny The Shark and Bill the Molester.

    Well, Idk about that last one. But hey, this is rated T!
  16. Hey Hyperstrike, stop shooting down other people's ideas about stuff. Thanks.

    Anyways, I agree that AE has messed a lot of stuff up in CoX. The zones that used to be used are... well, no longer used. I went to Cimerora the other day and where I used to find maybe 15-20 people standing around Imperious, I found... nothing. It's rare to get an ITF these days and I don't like that. ITF's were fun. The only solution I can even think of is this: Make a newbie zone! Or at least put the Tutorial back into being unavoidable. When City of Villains first launched we had to do the Tutorial for EVERY character. This will not only sort or slow down the Character Creation, but also slow a little bit of the newblets not knowing what the crap they're doing.

    This game has lost a little of it's fun factor for me, only in that I don't get to experience as many baddie groups that I used to. I miss fighting Carnies, Family, Rikti, even Circle of Thorns... (Damn them and their holds and bubbles)... All I see now is... Maniac Slammer Maniac Slammer Maniac Slammer Maniac Slammer Maniac Slammer Maniac Slammer Maniac Slammer...

    I'm not saying that I'm innocent of avoiding AE and trying to find real teams, but it's near impossible unless I'm already 50, and my friends aren't on.

    Auto-Sidekick?

    Thanks!
    And I found it easier to add a 48-54 ally in there, made it highly entertaining. :P

    Lol, poor Markus got barked at.

    Auto-Sidekick?

    I've got a bunch of friends who are all lowbies and I really want to play with my 50.
    How can I have my mission auto-sidekick them up to around my level so that we can play?

    -Thanks,
    Payne
  20. Objective Feedback: Well, I've noticed that in the Tailor, you have the option to make the shield reinforced. Which makes the inside a different color than the outside edge. But on Round Shields, it doesn't work and the whole shield turns one color. It would be awesome if I could have the two tone effect. I'm working on a themed set of costumes. (I'm not sure if this is a bug, or if this is just an error with my game, but it's been bothering me)

    Subjective Feedback: I've played a Martial Arts/Shields scrapper all the way to 42 and I've loved it. My only complaint is that it is a tad bit end heavy. I've also found that the defense is a little iffy, but It will probably be way better with Set IO's in there at 50. I also would like to say that Shield Charge is a freakin' awesome attack and that it's like candy to me. Run in, Focus Chi, Dragon's Tail, and Shield Charge in place(To get the damage bonus from AAO of course). Oh But this is either after the tank has aggroed the mob, or I've popped a few luck's.
    Only other thing is not being able to do emotes while holding the shield. I'm assuming this is because it is a "weapon" type thing, only coming out when the power is being used. So that's understandable. Oh, and if you do the emote /e flipcoin while your shield is out, your character does this weird hand thing.

    EDIT: Ooo! Idea! I know that changing the One With Shield could be kind of weird, but since everyone is complaining about the endurance problem, and the defense problem, you could turn it into a sort of Energy Absorption power like in Ice Armor. Actually, just like Ice Armor. You get endurance from the number of enemies around you, as well as increasing your defense. I don't know. But it just suddenly hit me. It's late... well by now, early so I'm just popping of fireworks in my head.
    Enjoy.
  21. Are we going to be able to purchase the bonus stuff that comes with the Mac edition?

    Like we have with Good Vs. Evil, or kind of a Booster Pack thing?

    That Valkyrie set looks hardcore awesome.
    And the Mission TP would be really handy at low levels.
    :P

    Nevermind. Ignore that. I just found it on the second page.

    I'm excited!!
  22. Ok, this was very good, And I'm going to go ahead and say that I am NOT going to insult your spelling. You showed all aspects, and I knew what you were talking about. This makes me want to make a WS, mostly just because I want a little more challenge than your normal tank(run in, punch, foot stomp, foot stomp leave) and controllers(run in, mass hold, mass imobilize, [lightning storm] blah blah)

    So yea, this was very well done!
    Good job!
