    Invalid Name?

    They don't copyright the name - they trademark it in the comic medium. Now, there are still ways to use such names, but NCSoft takes the "Better safe than sorry" route.

    Thanks for nothing.
    Because you know, that's why they moved it. The bit about an issue with the DXP system is a lie, of course.

    Obviously, we need to make sure this never happens again to such fine folk.

    Therefore, I vote NCSoft/Paragon Studios remove the DXP system, and never have a DXP event ever again.
  3. Try searching for zombieman - he has a post with a table of observed values and what they buy (dev chats, articles, SDCC).

    Even then it wasn't really a seperate game.

    Otherwise I'd be able to have Rajani Isa as a Defender AND Corruptor, both on Virtue.

    If you go into Options -> Email make sure Email is enabled and then the next 2 following options are "disabled." I'm at work right now so I don't remember exactly what it says in Options, I just know they need to be disabled.

    I had enabled them after I had gotten a spam message (first in a LONG time).

    That should fix the problem
    I think I recall you in /hc!

    Anyway, the options were the Friends/SG email only.

    Yes and no.

    The performance shfiter proc is based of 10% of your total endurance. However... that's not the question.

    Veats have the same base endurance, but their base /recovery/ is higher. It's described as conditioning, but the power icon you see does nothing. So any percentage increase to recovery via buffs does more per percent than it does for non-VEATS. Now is it enough to make the +End proc worth less than a 3rd End mod in stamina over time? Not sure.

    AoE powers would be using nearest and not next so much. Also, the targeting for AoE powers is different than for the player's UI in that they don't care about what shows on screen.

    The new tfs are designed with shorter runtimes in mind.
  10. Locking the trays will help. As far as using the keyboard - all powers like caltrops, when you use them with a keyboard shortcut, queue and wait for you to place. Using it will mean not dragging the power icon as you won't need to click it, only the targeted spot.
  11. First of all, what targeting issue are you referring to?

    For the help with your system, you want the "Technical Issue" forum in the "Development" sub forum above player help.

    Dots (talking things like Fire's dot or Shadowmaul) don't "tick" in the proc sense. It's merely a delayed damage component.

    Things like rain of fire, it's actually a new use of the power going off every tick, not a delayed damage component.

    It is marked on the map - after you enable it (no clue why it's not enabled by defualt) - the option is "Lounge" I believe.

    Which depending on how much you play the game (and use the forums) is STILL cheaper by far than Netflix

    Only three, eh?

    That was what, six for MM, several for dominators, couple for stalkers and corruptors.
  17. Quite possibly that line is an oversight.

    And I'd say tactics.

Now what enemies of higher level and/or rank do get is increased Accuracy. That means that their chance of hitting you does increase but since they do not get any To Hit bonuses increased defense has no effect.

    Boo hoo? You do a single click later vs a double click sooner? We've always had the Eula every login (Unless you were bypassing the updater before)

  22. Steam just launches the NCSoft launcher. And currently, it won't have the overlay show up on the actual game.

    We have detected missing or corrupt game files, please run the "Repair" option in NCsoft Launcher to fix this. The game will now exit.

    Tried it 2x's didn't fix anything.
    Find your city of heroes folder - delete "client.chksum" and try again.

    It's twilight, not a brady bunch marathon.

    Either take the anesthetic or skip the kicks.
  25. First of all, buy the complete collection not the expansion - the complete version includes a month.

    Most people will recommend the animal or natural boosters for the run power they grant - faster than sprint, beter jumping than combat jumping, it's a nice travel power (Beast run and Ninja run have the same stats. Just different animations.
