  1. Um, as I recall the to-hit buff builds up kinda quick as it is... Your base to-hit is 75% as a player, and your final to hit chance is (To-hit-Targets Defense)*ACC mod...

    I'd go mainly with defense myself because of that.

    How horrible. You refute my post without bad grammar, thus preventing me from poking fun at your post and ignoring your statement!

    You can do this for ANY power or item in the game, even if you don't have it. You just need to know the name and put it in square brackets. For example, type the following into your chat line:
    [Dry Heave] <enter>
    Seriously, that's actually a power.
    The players can't have it, but I think it's the best power name in the game.
    You can also drag a power icon to the chat entry line and will do the same thing (with hidden AT/powerset info). When dragged like this it will always be for the AT/Powerset the linking player has.

    Note the powerset name (especially when just typing a power name in, like [Brawl]). For instance, with brawl, it mention being in the 5th Column powerset - which won't reflect how it is for players, necessarily.

    You might also have it go to the Controller version of a power instead of a dominator, so if it's a control power it would list the +1mag proc instead of the double mag effect for domination.

    thanks again everyone for all the great tips.
    Note : When they say Arcana is very knowledgeable, they mean she's taught some of the developers things about their game they didn't know :P

    Eh, depends on how you look at it. They don't modify any of the client's files. However, the client itself when running is changed.

    Vidiotmaps, though, is well known to the developers - so is the couple of people that tend to make different and/or more correct icons for powers - and mentioning them and their packs has not resulted in moderations of posts/deleting of posts/banning of people.

    The devs "wink" at the above couple of people/groups, but do not officially endorse them due to the company's policy. The method used by the packs could very easily, I think, be closed off. If one does not wish to run an .exe to install them, it's possible to simply do a drag & drop of the new files in to the correct folders.

    Twilight Grasp (Dark Miasma) and Transfusion (Kinetics) are the two strongest AoE healing powers in the entire game. As a bonus, they're quick-recharging and debuff regeneration for those long AV fights. TG also debuffs tohit, while Transfusion saps endurance.
    And the (unquoted by me) note about the long animation time isn't quite true anymore.

    And the "leech" heals (requires a target) a) have a higher than standard base accuracy, b) heal unenhanced as much as the non-leech aura heals heal fully enhanced, or there abouts, anyway.

    Maybe not so embarrassing if you can't remember where it's at

    Well, in game, he's just a bald head. No real indication of age.

    And who knows exactly what happened to him when he was revived (and thus "healed" of his inability to stop emitting anti-matter) by Dark Watcher.

So it's not quite as team friendly as Empathy, but it's still frikken awesome.

    (I am also a healer at heart. Boomkin/tree dual spec, dps/holy pally, etc etc etc. My first, and main, character here in City is an Empathy Defender. )
    Eh, the main one where other sets would buff others and Pain Dom buffs the caster is the rez. Still has plenty of buffage for others.

    thank you all so much. this is plenty to get me started. hope to see you in game (Trystien).
    If you are normally into healers, definitely give empaths (both controller and defender) and Pain Domination (corruptors and masterminds - note that powers work under different limits as a MM) a chance.

    This post is an invalid point because:

    A) It's from Aggelakis

    B) Contains no relevant Links.



    I was just making sure Gansta_Blade realized why it was possible

    That means it's downloaded the patch to the current version and is installing it.

    No way around it if you want to play the game - unless you have someone you can copy the current files from.

    On a Solid State (aka no moving parts/platter) Drive, it's possible. Probable, even.

    And that popped into my head, and I wanted it out.

    No hard feelings?

    403 error

    They don't seem to have a public email.

    You could try support@guildportal.com; also help, webmaster, or some other such email address.

    Also, i typed in "IP Address : Guild Portal" into google, and one of the results gave me http://66.29.209.69/. Try that.

    Perhaps it's based on a lunar cycle. :P
    I've started new characters with other people and had the team go everything from all Mikey or All Drea to a mix of 50/50.

    Always bug it - that is only supposed to be a valid door for AE.
  21. You can always look here - globals are set bonuses (don't have to be able to use the power its in, exemplaring below the minimum level to slot that enhancement turns it off) while procs and 120s are the ones that work at any level, you just have to be using the power.

    I have never logged into facebook. I've never created a profile there. And I don't plan to.

    I would get overrun by Yoville and Farmville invites.

    Also, the advertisements wikia uses seem to frequently get poisoned with virus and such.

    Save the ones you use a lot; inability to access that site seems to happen frequently for you.
