    I tend to learn towards the first, which does make a good point that supergroup bases would quite likely break that suspension more blatantly.
    To be fair, the entire pocket demonsion IS DJ Zero's power, basically.

    And when you say it's the D linking to Praetoria, notice that word choice - the power (and ability to discriminate) is all on the D's side.

    On the other hand, I don't think Father time is there and giving missions, or I didn't remember where to find him when I looked yesterday...
    He's part of the actual event - he goes away (from the D and your contacts list) when it's not on)

    Beastyle is probably the cause. I know Beastyle's walking is a Nemesis plot, I heard it in Pocket D! (after I typed it).

    And yet you deny that they are 80's music? They just got stuck on the way out.

    • Scaling a building by jumping from window ledge to window ledge;
    • Bowling sounds if you stand outside one of the bowling alleys (I find that sound rather comforting);
    • Certain zone events like the fires in Steel or the Troll Rave in Skyway;
    • and simply getting a feel of the City by running up and down streets and alleys.
    Sure the little touches are quickly forgotten after your 10th character as you simply want to get to 14th or 22nd level but I still remember marveling at them.

    Oh, and welcome to the game.
    Fixed that first one

    If you ever end up doing this kind of question again, I'd recommend they be listed as such (if you do it for both classical and Superhero/whatever type MMOs)

    Dungeons/Taskfoces/Group Tasks
    Quests/Missions

    or some such.

    You are misreading the post.

    He gets lag when he /disables/ autocomplete. So he probably leaves it on.

    I like to find out some of the details about the powers and the best ways to use them. I like to figure out how I can take a power that some people claim is subpar and make it effective. I like to learn from the experience of others to learn things that I might not have figured out on my own. Mids, guides and the forums have made the game more enjoyable for me.
    This, combined with Mids, IOs, and Power detail info, mean most guides tend to be suggestions/details of power usage, and not so much slotting, etc. Combined with the developers' general dislike of radically changing the usage of a power, there isn't often a need to update.
  11. As Space Nut said, the time from the version of the game you bought and the Going Rogue Complete Collection will stack no matter when you add them.

    Bit of advice against Murphy - Save the codes for your account. If you bought a boxed version of the game, this is the code(s) entered to start/upgrade your account. If you buy from the NCSoft store it will be emailed to you after your account is created.

    Keep track of these - they are asked for if something happens and you end up locked out.

    Also, they will ask for first sub payment method (the first time you pay for that isn't considered "free") - if a credit card, note type and last four digits, if a time card, keep it (rather, the entire number).

    Now, you won't necessarily ever need these, and people have had their accounts restored without all this info, but if you are ever asked for it and can provide it, it moves quicker.

    That's basically the point of your traditional (read : hereditary) monarchies. They can make silly (or unpopular) decisions because they don't face re-election.

    Chat color bind

    One, make sure beginchat and everything after that is enclosed with quotation marks. Might want a space between the last value and the closing quotationmark.

    Two - if one does not work, try /unbind enter
    And then go menu -> Options -> Graphihcs tab and they have settings for this kind of thing there.

  15. The various powers for the other packs...

    And to check fo the Origins pack, since they are all
    Paid for auras/capes, you can use them at level one so you can just check the character creator.

    Did you bug it? The Big Bubbles used to do the same thing until they were fixed to be a constant size.

    They need kilts that are not formal Scottish wear and not worn out... like Utilikits or something.

    One each TF and SF.

    The TF is the normal just talk to the guy, but the SF requires you run a tip mission to unlock the SF contact ("Sinister Plot" is the type of tip, will probably be the first one you get, it's the only Sinister Plot tip).

    But the SF gives you a neat perma-buff.

  20. So... "Time" is a bug, and so is "restraints imposed by Time and the rest of Reality" since both limit (through limiting the art team's time) our ability to create costumes?

    Just make sure if you sell them on the market, you sell them for more than a vendor will buy them for.

    Also, have you picked up Going Rogue? 30 USD, so only costs you $15 after the free month if you haven't yet. Gives access to the alignment system - and if you stay hero or villain while running the tip and morality missions, you end up getting "Alignment merits" - (one every two days) - one thing many will do is get 2 merits then buy a "Luck of the Gambler : Global Recharge Bonus" IO at level 25 (It's a global IO, so works as a set bonus - 25 is the minimum level you can get it at, just move the slider down) and sell those on the market for large sums of inf.
  23. At this rate, you might need to start paying royalties with how often you use that picture.
