    My understanding is that you very much enjoy the MasterMind ATs as well whatever secondary you chose (sounds like Storm) but are unsatisfied with your choice of pets.

    I can understand that, not everyone likes the same pets. No you will not be able to choose a new set of pets for your current character (ever) and your only option is to recreate from level 1.

    If you are concerned about giving up the SG you have joined, along with the base you are enjoying, don't be. Just contact one of the leaders and let them know you have an Alt you would like to bring into the group. Most people will gleefully do it As simple as that.

    If a swarm of high level baddies is killing you in a second I suggest that you might of increased your difficulty level too much. As has been mentioned not every combination can solo giant mobs all the way from 1 to 50 but these same ones can do other neat things.

    Play with your difficulty settings and you will find the right combination for you. Occasionally you will come across a group that will devestate you even at the new settings. Thats part of the game. You can't be awesome versus everything all of the time.

    You made a comment about AE and how it was designed for Farming. Well in all actuallity that isn't true.

    Granted that is what the AE system has more or less devolved into the idea of it was to allow players to create STORIES for other players to enjoy. There are a good number of writers and there work being enjoyed still being enjoyed. Wander down to the Mission Architect Forum to find some fantastic arcs.

    Besides I really think people are farming Tip missions for the merits. That would make sense to me.

    You made a comment somewhere about not wanting to waste a slot on Freedom by remaking your villian. There are a lot of slots there, twelve if I recall correctly. There are a lot of servers as well, each with their own personalities.

    Not sure if any of that helps at all but I felt the need tot try. We all love the City and it makes us sad to see a new player not enjoy it to the fullest.

    Good luck and I hope you enjoy your stay,

    Bashful Banshee

    **Steps back out of the goop**
    even though you won't reply because you wont want to bud in thanks for the tip. And im in the leader of a super group. Sure theres a lot of slots i only choose freedom because it has the most people than it was when i was in justice server.

    All i wanted is help from the respec. Why should i even pay millions infamy to get a respec if it dose not do what i wanted it to do or even if i do get it for free at level 40. If it dose not do what i want it to i don't have to use it. i can even just destroy my super group and my char and move my name if my char and super group name over to a new char. Since when bring respec inst help? what you guys got a problem with that word or bring it up? i bet no one buys it or use it because it leaves a faint sint in the air that it can't do what it you wan't it too. or what Forbin_Project said about the dev cant give it to you that no one want to speak about it.

    Since it cant do what it cant do then i have no need to grab it or use it unless i needed it too for healing and revive myself abilitys.

    AE has a time ability. But even if a mission is timed, just because your a super hero or a super villain or not a god to take on everything. once you die you just wasting time from the hospital to your mission.

    It's like some sort of stream of conscious gibberish. Fly for Mercy Isle? Endurance needed to keep Tornado running? Killing "red names"?

    I'm beyond perplexed and now wallowing in a pool of complete incomprehension.
    hey it was Forbin_Project (his/her) idea telling me that if i farm i have no skills or how to play. i had to say it i can't ignore it and let Forbin_Project get away with it now would i?

    Forbin_Project dose not understand that i know how to play and have skills whatever i farm or not. Farm is good anyways to build your base who in the world wan'ts a base thats a cube and just a teleporter inside.

    Farm is not completely bad or forbidden. Once you gain that TF and alpha slot you cant return it you know. once they get it thats it for that no way to give it back. Once a person farms they wont gain xp but infamy and prestige, besides the prestige to buy stuff for a base is extreme so whats wrong about farming prestige to expand your base or gain infamy to try out new costumes they release.

    just because i go to farms dose not mean i can't play. who ever heared a level 1 beat a red name? (not in team but soloing it Red name Vs. level 1 char) as level 38 i use a tornado skill to hurl a red name into the corner and use my pets to attack tell me that isnt skills or how to play thats better than dying now is it? Better than being sent to a hospital or have no revives on you. i picked tornado for the heck of it but when i came and hit the idea to how to kill a red name i used that skill and my pets to do the attacks wile i have endurance to keep the tornado on. And fly, now fly is vary useful in mercy island to get over those giant walls now is it? better than running far out to find a door huh? and the missions you go to is so close to the walls its not easy going to point a to point b by foot. Thats when fly comes in to help you.

    You'll get bored and cancel your sub when you realize this game isn't about end game content and you have nothing to do at 50 but farm.
    when i say i rely on farm meaning at the time i hit 50 farming is no longer necessary for me. just becuse i farm dose not mean "*gasp* i hit level 50 now i have nothing to do!" i got extra slots on freedom server. and why do you think the AE building to create missions is there for? not for looks or to make ppl excited it just there for to let others create there own story and at least somthing to do. and just because i hit 50 dose not mean i wont gain infamy and prestige aswell.

    and when i mean reseting powersets one time only for only 1 account and only to those who payed the game for 12 or what months can only do it once. its not like doing it one time and you will never gain anymore because it knows you already gain this becuse its in the system to pervent you from getting it and not sellable on black market dose not mean "Oh no we gave it out to people that only use one time we ruined and unbalanced the game we will have to shut it down now bye bye. like how that can ever happen"

    The only one issuie i cant farm by myself it has to be done with a person that max level and has ability's to do damage on targets when his is srounded by enemy's, heck i can do it but i don'y don't how to put all npcs in one place to over welm myself in a horde to do anything, but thats the problem im only level 38 a swarm of high level npcs can kill you in a second.

    Well i can just join a team and let them farm so i can power level through then. I rely on farming than missions. personally farming can be a good thing to test all the abilitys and see what best fits.

    If the OP wants to play a game that allows that I suggest he try that other super hero game that allows people to customize their power sets. The one that has lost so many customers it's been forced to go F2P because people found out custom built builds suck.
    its not imposable and heck i they can let us do it for just 1 day and thats all one time only and only one time. If that can't happen the only way i can get a change is doing a farm im not wasting time gaining my levels back up to 38 normally so i need a fast way back to the level i was at, i don't care if farming is cheating or not fair in the game. if i wan't a change theres no option other than farming. I wasted countless time on my resistance to get at level 20 all night until morning without sleeping.

Other than all of the above ways to get a respec, you can also get them from vet rewards. So relax and actually play the game to get a respec. You can also just select your second build from any trainer and re-do your build that way (you won't be able to use any of the enhancements from your other build though).
    Second build wont get me to change my pets now will it? *crosses his arms and taps his right foot* im not sure if respec will or not but has to be possible. I wan't to change the pets i summon. Im happy with mastermind its the pets i like to change is all i want from that respec ever other side abilitys i don't mind.

    So run a Respec Trial instead surely? Am I missing something here? Is there some reason you cannot run the respec trial and save yourself 300 million? (or wait 2 levels / 2-3 weeks and run the Patron Arc / wait for i19)
    I am close to level 39. But as you say i get it at 40 maybe thats more better than trial and buying it. at least now the biding for that much is no longer needed, i got other cheapest stuff to pay for than wasting it. What location i should be and the person i need to go to to use the respec. unless i miss a detail on your post. i just need villains side details i don't need hero side theres enough of it on other sites anyways.

    If you're level 38 then you can earn one at 40 simply by running the Patron Pool arc instead.

    Or wait 2-3 weeks for i19 to come out, there will be freespecs coming with that due to the Fitness Pool changes.
    well i can't pay 300million thats to much. they can eather take my 100,000 infamy as my bid for it or leave it (take it or leave as what people say) thats high as i can ever bid for, i need the infamy for my costume. I can't give people my infamy to someone who wan'ts it in millions if you can't gain infamy a lot during kills that would require as most people say is farming.

    What more are you looking for, exactly?
    If its the respec recipe thats in black market ppl are bidding those in millions i cant buy a respec in millions it wont happen in 100 years. Where do i do the three respec trials? if i cant bid 300million infamy over a respec recipe. Even if i bid 100,000 no one will even accept it to give me the darn item, i want that respec recipe in a cheap biding price, 100million or above takes ages. they relise how much infamy you gain each and every npc kill you only get 1,000 infamy (im not sure if this gos high in levels as Aion dose). I don't mind doing trials but they won't (who ever sells ot person or system) get a single infamy from me at those prices. millions of infamy for just 1 respec thats a rip off artist i would rather waste my time on other stuff in game than waste my time only 1 respec for millions of infamy.
  16. I'm not sure where to speak with this, but i am not happy for villains can't reset there char, and don't reply to me saying you must do it the hard way like everyone else dose. Thats like ignoring life and spend years on a pc without eating and sleeping.

    (No i will not waste a slot, i will not abandon my hard work getting to level 38 i will not give up my base and my super group i will not waste my time going hero to get a reset the easy way by spending my time and spending more to back to a villain and i spotted a respec(reseting current build) in black market and i will not spend millions of infamy for it, must be why people farm because the amount of infamy is so low)

    I'm saying this is because, i love villains but its harsh for not giving villains easy way to reset there powers i don't mind if it was one use only, who ever was selling the respec wan'ts to make us villains more harder for us to get it, as if someone has put food up in your face and as you try to grab it he just moves it away from you trying to tease you to get it. I told on broadcast about how to get it easy from a npc in villain side, I read the other sites its not possible only hero side, Through black market it is but hard to save up, and i don't got the time and infamy to even waste my time on to even grab just one. Someone who puts stuff in this game in a update needs to make it possible not wasting slots and abandon one char after the next. I like to stick to one char and only one and permently stick to it but have the ability to spend less to reset or like they did in The Matrix Online going to a npc and doing that mission and helping a level 1 npc get to his location without dying if that will help make it the same and hard to get the respec item.

    All i wan't is be able to reset to choose a different pet to re-spawn, I don't want to change out of MM. But they should give only Masterminds ability to change different pets but with a long period of time to be able to change (pet changing without changing your char weapons. like i saw when using thugs you use duel pistols and with demons you use a whip. but thats just my idea)
