  1. CoH was my first ever mmo and i was simply amazed by what i could do, costume and power wise and it's only ever expanded to due the most incredible dev team ever!!!!
    One of my biggest thanks is probably the hollows revamp...it was a God send.

    Thanks for all your hard work, it's terrible that we're all moving on. I wish you and all the devs good luck in the future because you deserve it. *cries*
  2. So far this song has been reminding of CoX, i think it's because i'm trying not to think this is the end

    A small sample:

    We didn't want to call it too early
    Now it seems a world away
    But I miss that day, are we ever gonna feel the same?

    Standing in the light till it's over
    Out of our minds
    Someone had to draw a line
    We'll be coming back for you one day
    We'll be coming back for you one day
    I don't even care if I know you
    Out of our minds
    Sad to leave it all behind
    We'll be coming back
    We'll be coming back for you one day

So they punch about every 4 seconds and deal around 15 punches each. So each shade deals about 700 damage, or about 1400 damage between the two of them.(Rough estimate, not sure how much the single target fear delays casting of shadow punch. And they do less damage if they have to run between targets)

    Shadowy binds and Dark grasp both deal about 60 damage with containment at level 50. So against a hard target you have to cast both of them a combined total of 23 times to about equal casting haunt once.

    In short, haunt is a damage power and can add quite a bit of single target damage.
    Okay, that is some persuasion and it may fit with some conceptual tweaking. Thank you both

    But besides that, I've found them to be useful in the damage department.
    Seems a bit evil and dark :P

    Never saw them do much damage, guess I wasn't looking hard enough. I though they were mainly just for the fear factor which I would of got from other powers.

    Dark/force help

    Hello forumers
    i've played this game of and on for some time and never really focused on character builds and pretty much just randomly slotted.

    So I was wondering if anyone could help me with a build for a dark/force field controller, the character currently sits at level 32 and I have around 135,000,000 ATM. I'd like help for a level 50 build as I can manage through the levels.

    I prefer to not have end issues, which I've just currently fixed with SO's and possibly an increase in survivability because so far a feel blaster squishy. (EDIT: after rechecking my slotting i seem to have improved this greatly)

    So far I am not using haunt mainly because it doesn't fit with my concept (sorcerer) and I don't find it very useful, unless you can change my mind.

    So please could you help

    hmm never realised there was no toxic defense until recently; guess Lethal/Toxic works.
  7. I could be wrong with this but doesn't the upcoming dual Pistols have an option for Toxic?

    The idea was depletion; but my mind went blank on what to call it; was trying to think 'O'

    Okay... i'm not exactly a scientific genius; I just looked at the pereodic table and chose.


    Overall thanks for the feed back; i'll see how to modify.
  9. I've recently come back off a CoX break and i haven't notice much a difference (UNION) since the SSK, i found it incredibly easy to find a team. I don't think the EU server is dying.
    Also with going rogue offering power sets, a new zone, side switching and ULTRA GRAPHICS it could bring back alot of new/old players.


    And you never know people may have unsubscribed to save up for a newer graphics card or something.

    While i'm not sure about it, I would say it falls under general harrassment. As they continued to bother even though you asked the to stop. Harrassment is harrassment, i don't think that excludes it from RP bother.

    The 'offender' will most likely be punished in some way or another, whether it be a warning or ban(not sure this will happen).
  12. this is good since my city of heroes 1-6 book just fell apart after being used twice
  13. it's said to see you go.. but a break does help.. and hopefully the little ones will last in your absence
  14. a cold cup of tea and stale biscuits
    ...and Ms. Liberty/Ghost widow fluffy cushions (that include moving hair for GG )

    Well after a great few years, it's time for me to hang up the cape in CoX for a little bit; mostly due to money issues, and physical fitness.
    It's been great meeting most of you. (especially those who helped me when i first joined. and those that helped me with RP).

    I may be back in afew issues!

    BYE

    but to me the moment you start play any toon you have farmed from the start. it don't matter what you done it farmed going from one mission to then next that also includes repeat the same mission over and over again, it is farming as you gain more Xp/Inf/Salvage/Recipes/prestige each step after a kill that in range to your toon. this is my final word on this but i do wish you the best

    [/ QUOTE ]

    So you're basically saying that playing anything in the game is considered farming? For example: if I log in and do a TF it's considered farming? Or even if I do a mission from any contact you will classify it as farming?

    Dude, do you actually know the definition of farming?

    Farming

    1.The act of repeating an action a number of times for the purpose of earning something from the repeated action. In City of Heroes this most often involves resetting a mission a number of times in order to earn something out of the mission multiple times. Things earned vary from experience, to influence/infamy/prestige, to badge credits

    wiki Farming so yes

    ((Omega Chief makes a valid point. There is little originality in this idea and technically, writing in a Paragon City branch of the Dawn Patrol is not your call. That sort of thing is up to the developers who write that part of the game's history. Hope I've explained that well enough. Think of it as copyright infringement where the Dawn Patrol is copyrighted. Why not reimagine your supergroup backstory and think up something better than even Dawn Patrol? However, having said all that, if you really don't want to start over, that's fine too. This is only just a game and what you're doing is not a crime, or at least I don't think it is. LOL. Have fun.))
