  1. Are you asking if you can have an NA (North American) account, even though you are in England?

    If so, then the answer is yes. There are plenty of players from around the world that play on the NA servers.

    Actually, no. If your character is as full health, you cannot die from fall damage.

    Case in point, during I14 Beta, I fell off the CoT floating island temple and took 45mil in damage.

    Okay, it wasn't 45mil it was 44,984,156 points of damage. Guess what, didn't kill my character.


    As for the OP's question, a Warshade or a Peacebringer operated by a competent player is a wonderful sight to behold.

    Hows about a catgirl name Twofur?





    Kidding, I don't have any catgirls.

    Steel Canyon Hellion arson

    Look for "Fire alarm sounded" in hero event messages. Just make sure there are other heroes with you. I don't think only one or two heroes can pull it off. Hint: there are three booms. One when the event starts (you won't see this unless you happen to be there), one halfway through when the Hellions stop respawning, and if you don't get the fires put out beforehand, the third boom packs a wallop, better run!

    Any Giant Monster

    If you see a team forming to take down a giant monster, go for it! Chances are all you need to do is add some extra damage to the team. They'll let you know if there's a support power you need to use (like Benumb, Lingering Radiation or buffs).

    Field Agent Keith Nance

    For level 20-29, starting in Talos Island, with the missions in Faultline. His mission arc is a blast. The follow-up arc with Special Agent Jenni Adair, not so much, unless you like AVs, one of which has lots of defense.
    You can combine the first two. Spawn a Kronos Titan in Steel and lead him to the burning building. Now that's a must see... <.<

    No, I don't see how this serves a useful purpose. It appears that the official solution is: get a second account.

    And black characters on the default background is really hard to read.
    And I think the official solution is: There are 11 servers US side, use more than one.

    Thanks again for the sketch at ComicCon David As promised, I've emailed a copy to you. It makes a great avatar too
    Gratz, Obs. That's awesome, love the smirk.

    Mouse, that's just creepy, especially with the Mr. Piddles on the shoulder.

    Welcome to the club!
  12. Happy Hatching day, Riverdancer!

    I know not everyone wants the busiest server, but they could slash half their servers and likely still have those low pop servers you want
    Please read points #5, 6, and 7.

    also, Why charge for character transfer? or even character renaming?

    Does some dude actually need to sit there and reprogram it for you? no.... it's automated... and we're paying monthly fees already...
    Monthly fees are for access to their servers. Anything else is a luxury.

    If I'm on a server, and it's dead, and I want to play on a fuller server, I should be allowed to.
    You can already do that. NCsoft has graciously allowed us to create something like characters for free. On each server.

    I digress....

    thanks for the help guys, I'll look around, probably on freedom, maybe virtue (how serious do the RP'ers take it?)
    As for Virtue and the RP'ers, it depends on who you run into. Anywhere from "Hello Insert name here, you look new to these parts." to ((Go back to your own server, n00b.)) So pretty much the same as anywhere else.

    You should really poke your head into the Global Channels, those are going to give you a better clue as to what people are doing.

    ...and...

    Welcome back to the game.

    No, but I do remember the one that said NCsoft should offer a way to buy your way past the queue, and boot players if they don't have the "I bought my way to the front of the line." status.

    You forgot to mention the flood of "I can't play my game!!11!!1!eleventy-eleven!!111!!11!!!" threads with the inevitable "There are 10 other servers." responses.

    Heck, I like going there just to play on the geysers.
  20. Freaklympics If just for the map at the end.

    And for the same reason The Clockwork Captive.
