    Now it would have been nice if they announced when the fix was made that that option to save them was no longer being offered instead of only responding in a thread that the list was fixed and nothing else.
    I am hardly disgruntled, I dislike their poor wording as an advertisment. There are actually laws that govern how you can advertise. If that post had said Until we resolve this issue server transfers can be "stored" then I would say that was proper. It however says since there is an issue we made server transfers able to be "stored". (no end date implied)

    Also I don't think they ever did make them sorable period they advertised it without checking their capability is the jist of what i get from the posts I have seen.

    Poor advertisement is poor they should check these things before posting is my point.

    As to the question about using the server transfer immediately, I am getting an answer for that question ASAP.

    Can you confirm that you can save them for later? It's posted that you can you should follow through on this.
  3. If they posted that you can save them then they should follow through with that option.
  4. Masque you don't want PvP io's and other io's o.O ?



    RE the AoE buffs I can see that some people don't want them in caves etc a Prompt would be great. The aoe cold and thermal buffs is going to make the game un playable for a friend of mine :/ He crashes (repeatedly) when they are applied to him. So there may be some valid complaints on this though as 90% of my toons are support toons i love it.

    In duels luck can play a huge part in getting a crit when you need it or missing a kill shot. Playstyle is huge in zone, duels and I would even say team.


    As far as the KB question- I think I must be asking my question poorly. What I was trying to ask was if there are different DR curves (to make up a term) for KB then there is for KB protection. I actually already kind of knew that there was because of some testing we had done in the last few leagues but the question always comes up and people argue about it each time.

    Some say that to protect yourself from KB you HAVE TO HAVE equal to or greater KB protection then the power hitting you (this would be true in pve) however we found that you don't get KB'd with lower protection then the KB a power should have based on Mids.

    So I did some quick testing:

    My Blaster has 45 KB outside of PvP
    this is DR'd to 10.5 pts of protection in PvP


    My Mind/FF has force bolt 6 slotted with Kinetic Crashes so
    51.21Pts of KB

    In PvP if I try to force bolt my blaster he is not KB'd at all. So it would seem to me that KB is DR'd to a greater extent then KB protection.


    If I toggle my acrobatics off on my blaster his KB protection drops to 8.7 pts of protection in PvP and my force bolt IS able to KB him.


    So 51.21 pts of KB gets DR'd to somewhere between 8.7 and 10.5 pts of KB in PvP.
    God forgive me i think i understand this enough to explain it (this frightens me).


    In this example:
    My Mind/FF has force bolt 6 slotted with Kinetic Crashes so
    51.21Pts of KB

    The fact that you have enhancers means that part have DR aplied to it. So look at the base value and subtract that from your 51.21 pts that is the value that the DR will apply to. so now you have something like this:

    45 kb protection vs 51.21-DR's enhancer buff [or your base kb+(enhancements - DR)]

    Since you are not being kb's it's below 45
    since you get KB'd with acco off it's above 35? (forget if acco is 9 0r 10 pts protection)

    Can't find my usb drive with mids on it here at work to give the base numbers and enhancement numbers.

    I will remind you Dear Sir this is the internet there is no place for logic here.

    http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/humor (definition #3)
    • a : that quality which appeals to a sense of the ludicrous or absurdly incongruous
    • b : the mental faculty of discovering, expressing, or appreciating the ludicrous or absurdly incongruous
    • c : something that is or is designed to be comical or amusing

    As for being "nutty" or "easily set off" - let me clarify my point of view:

    My Point of View:
    • 1. This is the internet.
    • 2. Posting on the forums does not affect my ability to eat or pay rent.
    • 3. How I am perceived on the forums does not affect my ability to eat or pay rent.
    • 4. I enjoy a good debate, even if I am posting into the ephemera.

    This is the internet and a game forum you are not debating you are trolling. Your humor is truely lacking and you just come off as bitter Perhaps you should read your links more. I do love that movie though.

    Seriously?
    lol at the bitter chick posting that her old server is a hole in one of their welcome threads calling others chafed.

    When you said you are always right it stoped you from saying it was your opinion. If you hold the value of an opinion so high you wouldn't be telling others their's where wrong. Please try to stay straight on your arguments the flip flopping sort of detracts.

    Care to try to troll me again? I personally thing it would be fun but your far too easy game. I remember how nutty you have gotten in other threads your much to easily set off.

    Basic Premise:
    If you're not going to participate then you won't get rewarded.

    Is it perfect right now? No. Should you be consistently getting Rares and Very Rare tables?

    NO

    I do participate and i get threads so obviously you have no clue whats going on before declaring such a statement go read other threads and see what the flaws are.


    I agree with this suggestion, though doubt it will happen. /signed

    I have to admit that blew my mind a little bit Nurse!!
    lol that's why i said she had the best name

    Call her ToP for easier targeting, just say in advance you will refer to "x person with difficult name" as "easier name" at the beginning of match.

    I did that on my defender on champion but you have to switch sides and run the patron arc. If this person does this I can remake it for him.
