    In my observation, it actually triggers on both sides - one Hero zone and one Villain zone.

    Store on test?

    Well, they never sell the boosters via the in-game store anyways.

    The in-game store only does Character Slot, Server transfers, and rename purchases.

    Note - it's a chance to trigger an event, and it will either be the deadly apocalypse/banners OR the zombie invasion.

    Is there anyway to turn off the auto run feature, I use my mouse to move and it seems that if I hold down my left and right mouse buttons to move that after a few seconds it auto runs which is kinda annoying I would like to stop once the buttons are released...

    Also, does the game support addons of any type and if so is there any you all recommend?
    Didn't see anyone mention this so...

    /bind mousechord "+forward"

    Also, if you briefly click both mouse buttons at once while auto-running, it stops you.

    Not sure if anyone pointed this out either -

    www.paragonwiki.com or wiki.cohtitan.com are the same site and the main wiki for the game.

    There is a wikia wiki - but that's a ad/virus trap, avoid it.

    The above info about turning off the autorun was pulled from the following pages :


    www.paragonwiki.com/wiki/Binds

    and

    www.paragonwiki.com/wiki/List_of_Key_Names

    for example.

    I find the whole complaint over Mystic Fortune to be very odd, to say the least.
    Hey, seems like it's been a while - Welcome back Cantatus?

    Anyway, in EQ me and my friends would actually get pissed at drive by buffers - usually because they would buff us with a buff that we did not want over one we had, yet it was a buff that was a "higher priority" and overwrote our pre-existing buff.

    Things like the Temperance and the damage shields - Temp didn't stack, and overwrote, the damage shields we preferred.

    So it's not new - you just never noticed it before.

I'm not going to try to list them, but take something to Wentworth's, throw it up into your "stored" tab, and hit "find" to discover what the last 5 sold for. If any of them are in the millions, it's not junk. (There are many ways to get bit by the market, but I don't think that is one of them.)
    Especially the special IOs.

    Procs, and the proc-like 120s ("you get X bonus for 120 seconds"), will work as long as you can trigger the power (auto powers trigger once every ten seconds).

    If it does not mention a duration OR a chance (such as Luck of the Gambler's +7.5 Global recharge bonus, the pet set aura IOs) then it doesn't have to be in power being used to trigger (so it can work in a power greyed out by exemplaring), but it cannot be more than 3 levels higher than your current COMBAT level to function - these ones tend to cost way more the lower level they get.

    Some/all of the titans used to not use anything other than their burn patch missles. They were essentially disabled by mistake, and have been re-enabled "recently".
  13. I can tell you this : if you are not given a code at the time of pre-order to apply to your account, you won't be in the T3 wave.

    For CoV, you were given a pre-order product key that flagged your account as ready for the beta when ordering.

    Activation of any kind on the live server should be instantaneous. It is only the test server that "should" lag behind, as the sync system usually doesn't run on the weekends.

    If it takes more than an hour for the Live servers to recognize that you've restarted your account, contact support immediately.

    One of my favorite powers in the game is Rune of Warding. A set of alternate animations causing one to sketch out a rune then having the blast happen for the blast sets would be awesome.

    If this did happen, though, ideally I would like three versions (or even just two) - 1) Rune/outline colors pull from the blast colors; 2) Runes and outlines black and white, respectively; 3) 2 reversed.

    Unless you can get them to get around the two-color thing with power customization

    Last I heard - if you upgrade a trial account before the trial time is over you a) don't lose the trial time, b) have a full account. So go ahead and upgrade now and get rid the trial restrictions.

    I recommend getting the "Architect Edition" from the PlayNC.com store (or near-by physical store, or Amazon) as it gives you a free super booster (Either Tech or Magic, I recommend Magic. Although tech is fun too - self-destruct 1/hour or so).

    If you have the extra cash, I recommend also picking up the Natural/Ninja super booster for the Ninja Run power.

    And Welcome.

    so the 1/12,000 rng is 1 in 12,000 each kill, and, not if u kill 15,000 u get one. Its not like lets say a spedometer where when u go 12,000 it resets to zero


    its actually a 1 in 12,000 chance each time u kill anything that is capable of dropping a purple recipie

    hence the rareness and also thats why its sucks when u get one and its a confuse or a sleep set.


    enjoy

    -neg rep anyway please!
    I think the term you are looking for is a "non-cumulative 1/12,000 chance"

    I recommend you repost here. That's the Tech forum. This forum is geared more towards game play questions.

    Also, this "How to Post [in the Tech Forum]" post has links to two good programs for giving the techies info about your system.

    Also, while it's been awhile since it's been updated, TweakCoH can help with some issues - if you are wanting to adjust graphics settings, I'd avoid it since i17 changed that a lot, but the sound and other settings are still good, IIRC.

    several big things have happened since then. If you didn't before, you'll have CoV now. We've SSK - super sidekicking - so everyone auto-exemps/sk's to the mission holder or team leader. You can now email stuff, and there is actually stuff you would want to email yourself.
