  1. AKA if a power of yours accepts standard common IOs for that ability (Combat Jumping taking Defense enhancements, for example) the Alpha boost will work as an enhancement for that power at the listed percent.

    It will NOT affect other peoples powers affecting you or not.

    We were just all dog piling him and then poof, he wasn't there anymore.

I have never received one of the announcement emails even though I don't have any spam filters set up, it doesn't come in the Spam folder and all the appropriate checkboxes are checked in my ncsoft login page.


    Yet my friend used to get them all the time....This has been going on for...4+ years?



    Grr...
    Have you ever tried unsubbing then resubbing? Or if using gmail, swap @gmail.com for @googlemail.com?

    Might shake whatever is messed up loose.

    You do at least get the petition/bug reports when filing one, right?

    Any power that mentions a "bigger bonus for the first target in range" will give 0 unless it specifies otherwise.

    Either get a pre-assembled computer or get a friend who isn't to help you.
  6. Once the offer is live, you cancel your sub, and choose the bonus option you want.

    The next time your account renews, it will be with the bonus time offer. So my current sub is out in march - if I sign up for the offer, i'll get hit with the payment in march (exception to using paypal 1-time payment, IIRC).

    Read the Dev and Community digests. It's worth checking out every post a) in English (unless you are multi-lingual, wish my HS had offered German actually) and b) not one of the weekly contests for info.

    Each pet pretty much puts up the same server load as a player. They put in the for those with a bunch of vanity pets like yourself, especially with more on the way.
  8. Others include contacts that are there for fed ex missions only.

    errr...
    If you sell ten @$X, and ten @$Y, and X is more than Y, why keep selling them at Y?
  10. Make sure you apply CoV before CoV:CE if you get both.

If people are willing to burn transfers they don't want so they can use it as a rename instead then stop throwing the stupid transfers at us and give us real rename tokens.
    did they bug this? That is not how it is supposed to work (and they did log into the character,
    right? Iirc you must do that to trigger the free rename.)

    And there is nit LotG proc

    Gamestop?

    Locally the gamestop in the mall (and down the street from the mall, what is it, Starbucks? Although I guess I should check inf the one in the mall is still there) is alright (although they didn't pull off the "Mini-warehouse" look well at all, just feels cold) but then the staff is half/more from the Software Etc. still in the mall which has always been fairly good.

    But I still prefer the Software Etc.

    While I can see where you're coming from, personally I would LOVE to have Dark Affinity available for other ATs as alternate version of Dark Miasma, because swapping out those two mez powers would be great to me.

    ... I do agree that blackhole's persistence as a power is kind of baffling, though.


    Synapse, is there any chance you can tell us what you think Blackhole's actual PURPOSE is, as a power? Because to date, all of the purported purposes it has have been demonstrated to be not met by the power.
    Most "elements" have a theme in this game. Energy has KB. Negative Energy has -ToHit, Fire has extra damage, earth -Defesne, Cold Slows/-Recharge. In addition however, Dark and Cold/Ice have also always been more control-oriented than their kin. To me it's odd they are taking out Pet. Gaze especially considering it's damageless and not that long of a duration. *shurg*

    And Blackhole is kind of an "Oh Crap" power. Like MoG, or SoW and such.

    Though I also think Dom damage buffs should do more as well (since their damage scale used to be a lot lower than it is now).
    Technically they do. +X% of a higher value is more than +X% of a lower value in absolute terms.

    Transfers are/should be the first of the month regardless of the other dates in your account.
  15. Every mutlti-target power (small exceptions for powers like Blind which has single and multi-target componets) check each target.

    For examples like Blind, which takes hold and sleep sets, hold procs would only hit the target, the sleep on the aoe if the sleep procs.

    I don't see why they would use the mail. This is pure account backend, like the other loyalty programs they've run. There is nothing on the player's end to mess with unlike most of the other account item stuff.
  18. They were fixing something that could be used maliciously, possibly, and it broke storing those kinds of commands as binds

    It is no longer possible on new binds.

Maybe forgetting what makes you better for your players is the same as forgetting who your players are though.
    To be fair there were plenty of people that wanted non-Hamidon large group content.
  20. If you have anymore questions of gameplay, ask away.

    Any technical issues, the Tech bugs forum under development is the place to go.

    The Titan Network (www.cohtitan.com) has all sorts of good stuff including the Paragonwiki (both wiki.cohtitan.com & www.paragonwiki.com - avoid the wikia site it's old and tends to malware)

    Although in Safari, I've had (Three times tops) a weird bug where it spastically resets the page (Keeps jerking removing the cursor) if I've a text entry field I'm trying to right in. Have to actually close Safari (make it shake and go boom) to fix it.

The min specs for Win7 on a 64bit system is 2 gigs - and CoH takes between 1-1.5gigs.
