Yeah, got sloppy after the first death, but that's usually the way it goes. We throw all care to the wind and just roll in the debt. Still, first time I've done a bum rush on the last mission and survived the alpha, lol.
-
I'd bring my Empath, but it's semi-gimped right now in preparation for i19/inherent Stamina, so I'll probably bring my Sonic/Rad Corr (if I can get in range in time) or my Nin/Nin Stalker.
-
Put me down as Stacy Swan (Energy/Regeneration Stalker) for the arc; I'll switch to Yukiko for the trial since she's still a Rogue.
-
Either day works for me.

I'm in the process of remaking Yukiko into a DP/Storm Corr, but she won't be ready in time for the Positron TFs. I should be fine for whatever we do next week (Synapse?), but go ahead and change me to Kara Pyrefly (WP/Fire Tanker) for this one.

Quote:Didn't take a screenshot, but I think Scruffy's team was around 34 minutes or so. We hit Cap for the hunt and mostly treated the second mission as a defeat all. For the last one, Scruffy jumped in Granite and "hustled" to the vine room where he Assembled. We cleared the CoT, vines, then the AV, which dropped so fast the first ambush barely made it to us before the tree died. We cleared the rest of the ambushes, then I think all but one of us called it a night. ToTing gets boring after a dozen toons or so. >.>Originally Posted by Myrdinn
Times peeps! How did the other teams go!? -
What can $10 buy? A few examples.
- In the Philippines, for $10 -- or about 450 Philippine pesos -- you can fill a fridge with chicken, ham, fruits, veggies and spices.
- In Bhutan, 443 Bhutanese ngultrum ($10 US) at the local farmers market will buy a week's worth of vegetables.
- In Taiwan, you can get 24 new pairs of socks and 10 new ties, all for 300 New Taiwan dollars. That amounts to about $9.50 in the United States.
- For $10, you can buy 350 spinach seeds and the supplies to grow them, which after germinating and growing to maturity, would have a produce department value of $1,746.50 (350 5-oz. bunches at $4.99/bunch).
- In the United States, $10 can buy about 5 pounds of rice and 3 pounds of beans. At an average of 1 cup of rice a day with bean (protein) supplement, this would feed a person for 20 days.
- 0.00001775% of a F-15E (adjusted for inflation from 1998 USD).
- 5 capes and 10 auras for all of the characters on a single account in the MMORPG City of Heroes/City of Villains.

I'd be up for a hunt as well. PM me @Paragon when you get a date/time set up.

Quote:This. Customization is the bread and butter of CoX, and until every character creation aspect is customizable, you're not done.Originally Posted by Zombie Man
That's my take.
And I'm sorry when I said it I deflated BAB's pride in what he had done, which was truly outstanding. But to wait more than one Issue for the Pools to be customized means that Power Customization is, IMO, a failure.
What good is it if I can turn my red primary powers green and my blue secondary powers green but can't turn my overwhelming Speed Pool powers from that hideous yellow to my thematic green?
More people take the Power Pools than any Primary or Secondary and thus, in a way, they become even more Primary. Or they should be prioritized as such.
Until Pool Powers are customizable, what has been done is a unfinished job. And if there was a definite timetable, I could be patient. But because it's unfinished with no definite plan to be finished... sorry to say it... it's just unprofessional. -
Sign me up on Hatake Yukiko (DP/Traps Corr).

Congrats Shadowrush and FSH! Good luck in the finals!

Quote:Probably won't be another Silver Mantis for another year or so for the Freedom Horde, but you're welcome to start up your own Monday night events for merit-aholics.Originally Posted by crayhal
In that case, next time I join, I'll offer to lead the crack team, ie, 50s who don't need xp, or anyone who wants the badge quickly. The goal will be to finish it under 1 hr or less.
After the Silver M, if there's enough interest, we'll bang out Renault and/or Tarikoss as well. That should give us 66+ merits in 2 hrs. -
Go ahead and auto-sign me up on Hatake Yukiko (Dual Pistols/Traps Corruptor).

Team Steamroll (aka Team Myrdinn)

Sign me up on Hatake Hitomi (Sonic/Rad Corr). I already finished the transition to Rogue on the toon I brought last week.

Quote:New Amsterdam was renamed to New York when the English gained control of it from the Dutch. Amsterdam is the capital of the Netherlands, which the new ruling party would not want its citizens giving any form of fealty to. I'm sure if someone eventually conquers (North, South, or the United States of) America, it'll get renamed to something more appropriate to the conquering nation. Until then, it will retain the same label it's had on geographical maps since its foundation: America.Originally Posted by Mr_Trix
Yes, but can you link to why they kept the name if it was based on error? Even old New York was once New Amsterdam.

And no, he isn't some kind of innocent blob (or innocent pseudo-Cthulhoid horror in Praetoria); he can still think his nasty thoughts. There's mission from either Vernon von Grun or Dr. Forrester where he communicates with you telepathically, and he's definitely rational.Does this suggest that Hamidon can also write? Or does he simply assume control over one of his horde and write through it?Quote:
Hamidon's Letter
You've kept this letter, addressed from Hamidon to Tanya Tyler. It's a reminder of one of your greatest battles against the Devouring Earth. -
Go ahead and sign me up on Infinite Agony (Mind/Thorns Dominator) for one of the "Any" slots.
Oh, and just so you know, if it's at 2 PM PST, then it's at 4 PM CST, not 3.

It may be a tassel off a mortarboard, signifying the fortune one may encounter post-graduation.

I use TOs until 12, DOs until 22, and SOs until at least 47, if not 50. That's probably just the traditionalist inside of me seeping out through the cracks though. A large majority of my 50s have at least some IO sets slotted/frankenslotted, but a lot of them also still have a ton of SOs. This method is probably the only reason I can stay invested in some of the toons I have.... So no, I generally don't have issues giving advice about powers/builds since I still have very recent working knowledge of how most of the powers in-game work "as intended" (without IOs).
