    Oh, I know, thus the smiley.

Or, if you're swimming in slots, proccy proc-proc. Though really, only the health has 300m worth of procs you can slot.
    Health can't take any procs

    Out of all the thread necros, though, I think this is the best example of an appropriate one that I've seen. I guess 100% appropriate would of been to make a new post and link to this one to show background, but this was just as good.

    Actually there are alternatives: gamepads, rebinding the keyboard to ease controls, or using the mouse for attack powers. Complex timed macros are not needed to play the game. Your friend could play slower, without programming attack chains.
    Yeah - using something like the G-Keyboards (the G11, G15 [two models, older and unavailable one had 18 Gkeys], or what I want - the G19) or keypads like the G13 or Nostromo N52 is fine, as long as you (as I pointed out earlier) are not using it with it's software to fully automate gameplay. Someone using it for a handicap (such as carpal tunnel) would definatly be fine.

    Gives the basics of level-based debuff resistance.

    Look up arch villains there for their extra debuff resistance.

    Note, this is the only customizable APP, but that was so it could match your AR gun.
  6. To give a starting point, I have a Psi/Mental blaster.

    I took body armor (Suckit, Traitors!), Surveillance, and LRM.

    LRM Rocks.

    Surveillance is great, the debuffs are resistible but still nice. Stacked with other debuffs, it works out pretty well. Only "bad" bit is while it does give a miss message in the hit log, you don't get a hit message which I would like to have to see if I'm hitting the guy regularly or not if there is too much FX on the screen.

    LRM is great. AoE KB snipe.
  7. I've never heard of such.

    Now, two things about the fact I've never heard of someone being banned for using a G-Board.

    First is, they don't talk about "Capt. Dingus was banned for X". They refuse to even mention numbers of banned people/whatever. Closest they get is they might reference a big event of wrongness/expoliting and mention that people were banned in passing.

    On the flip side - 1 - the devs and community reps have never mentioned anything about a "crackdown" on extra keys (via a G-Board or Nostromo) and if they were banning due to this they would of mentioned it because the users of such devices are a not insignificant minority, I would think. Also, I have never seen someone raging on these forums or snidely mocking the devs/reps on another (banned) person's behalf.

    that is incorrect! I would say it would be something more like "Blood Sorcerers". Praetorian names tend to be more violent, not opposite.

    Eh, don't know about the cat girls. I would say Virtue does.

    But yeah, Freedom has generally the same "Noise to Signal" ratio as other servers, it's just that a greater population means greater absolute Noise levels.

    Tracked you down with this. This is my timey-wimey detector. It goes ding when there's stuff. Also, it can boil an egg at 30 paces, whether you want it to or not, actually, so I've learned to stay away from hens. It's not pretty when they blow.

    Still trying to reach a consensus as to if it's a bad joke, or just coincidence.

    It's even worse considering it's based off your trained level...

    If you knew where to put it, and the format/resolution requirements, it was easy on Win98/98SE to change out the logo on the loading/bootup screen (with the blue bar at the bottom.)

    Especially if you merely copy/renamed the Norton "Your @#%/You've a virus" screen in there.

    I had no guilt doing that to my teachers in high school
  13. The two free slots are granted via a script - they've never mentioned turning it off.
  14. Three sounds right - I know when the put the system in place, it was 2 to everyone PLUS 1 per 12 month badge (12/24/36/48/60/72). So 3 sounds about right, actually.

    If only one character has the extra badges, it shouldn't be giving you any slots to worry about loosing.

    I know Father XMas generally has his 600 & 1200 US$ build computers using a coolermaster chassis.

    Deletion of a temp power must be enabled for each individual power, as well. This is because there are a number of temp powers you "get" that are debuffs - Vahz's Disease being the most well known.

    The actual system worked well enough in Planetside, so my suspicion is, based on what we know so far, is that the Incarnate system will be similar. I can see rewards for completing in-game challenges like Task Forces contributing to Incarnate Levels.
    Or EQ's AA levels - in that game, AAs (alternate advancement) were merely abilities you could pick up via spending XP on them although some had a minimum level.

  21. This is AT & Powers General, not suggestions. Wrong forum

    Biggest issue with the set is your trip power. It would not be pretty, if at all doable, with the current game.

    Account troubles

    Basically they want you to set up a subscription - but it won't charge until the free time is over (if you put in a CC).

    It's not as clear as it could be, for sure.

    That pic I linked to (might even of been the exact one my friend used) was about as far out as my friend would go. Not only do that hot-linker (and he did it for several products) and my friend both sell on eBay, but my friend has a brick-and-mortar business and uses the website for that to host his eBay images. So no chance of ******.

  25. If I'm not mistaken, the issue is getting the system allow only replies to sent tells. Currently that doesn't work right.
