Count me in for the 8th too. Can bring my Fire/Rad troller or a blaster/scrapper of some kind.

I think Fire/Rad looks good

Nice post bud.

I have yet to complete the "Undefeated" challenge. It's something that I believe needs a dedicated team. It's painfully tedious solo but I'm convinced it's possible.

I'm currently working with a couple of mates to put an all Kinetics team together and go to 50 like that. (Defs & Controllers) which could be fun but I reckon once we get past lvl 20 we'll munch through almost everything. I suspect it could be more of a challenge for example if we chose an 8-man Brute team or crupper (maybe even an EAT team?)

Have tried several times in the last week or so to get through the MoSTF, but with no luck. The vines have defeated us every time but we persevere

Odd builds: I'm keeping my VEAT Soldier as a standard build and you could play a PB/WS in human form only I guess.

Badges? Well how does a blaster that's never taken Aid Other get the healing badges?

I don't think there's too many borked builds possible but you can certainly skew the build with odd pool powers. A defender with Presence and Fighting for example?

Scarlet Shocker checking in!

To get back on topic I'd like to extend the pact to more than 2 people too. For example I'm in the process of putting together a project with a few friends to go from lvl 1 to 50 with a group of 8.

So, to all level pact would be great especially if one of us couldn't make it for a session or 3 - they'd still be with us level wise and it'd smooth their journey

This!

When I read the title to this I wondered if it was concerning the recent rediscovery of people who were last seen on Meg Mason's repeatable missions

Damn that sucks!

Sorry to hear. Keep the faith and come back when you can

It's a badge you don't have.

Go find it and solve the mystery

Bugger - totally forgot about the evening session, what with getting a Steam account and trying out some of the games. Not that it would have helped much if I had remembered though, because at about 7.20pm my internet connection stopped working for 2.5 hours... *sigh*

Ummm sadly I got <ahem> sidetracked by the lure of Katie Hannon and shiny shiny badges and it totally slipped my mind

Scarlet Shocker's going to kick-start Shock Tactics and get more badges.

Riffster's thinking of coming out of retirement, tho he is enjoying teaching at the Midnight Club.

Magma Mage wants to get to 50 so he can maybe find Mist Mage and help her to 50 too.

Scarlet Sinner is going to make 50 and become a bigger noise in the Isles than that fake Scarlet Stinger.

Worked well Rabbit, thankyou

OMW a tad late. Why oh why did I have to pick such an early time in the afternoon? :P

You can buy a state of the art card, but if the rest of the system is still slow, you wont have much use of it anyway.

I have a Intel Core2Duo E6750 @ 2.67Ghz and 4gb of ram. That should be good, no?

Guess i would look into getting a GTX 260.

Just really wanna play on high settings without slowdowns without digging a hole in my wallet down to china.

That link didn't seem to work but I am running totally maxed out on the 9800

I can't even find the earmuffs

I did a similar upgrade and I posted a question here (totally wrong place I know but meh)

Hope it helps.

For the record I'm very happy with my 9800GT. Not sure if I could justify any more expense than that but it's great value for money

So where do people assemble for this one and at what time?

[/ QUOTE ]

I think the winter zone unless we fancy something like Atlas/Aeon City

Same time - ie 2pm & 3pm & 7 & 8 (GMT)

Scarlet is Elec/Elec/Elec

But bottom line

21 days of your toon offline, you get a badge? nice

How many badges could you get if you played your toon for 21 days?

heh I hope it's consensual

TG, I think you've made some reasonable points in most of your posts.

You know PVP far better than I, and I applaud that, but you have kind of missed the point of this thread. This thread is aimed at the "casual" PVPer, getting those who have (or would like) limited experience of PVPing.

You don't fit in that category. You're hard core. PVP seems to be your only interest in CoX (which I dont' see as a problem btw) but your evangelising and solution for every problem, perceived and real, may be scaring those more timid who don't understand the mechanics of PVP away.

I believe that for PVP to thrive and survive in CoX it needs to be embraced by the majority of players as being "doable" (not to be confused with winable) and most of all FUN but I'm concerned that your very passion for it is daunting to the less experienced player - which in turn means they will be less inclined to comment.

I am convinced that PVP in CoX is not broken beyond repair - but sadly it's close. What I can say is that from my days at Evo when I kicked off Friday Night Fight Club - which Prox took and ran with, it was always well attended, and people generally considered it to be a lot of fun - many of them very inexperienced.

FNFC isn't running any longer sadly but one observation I can make is that very few people I'd consider to be dedicated PVPers made regular showings, but when they did they got as good as they gave. The biggest difference I can glean from that is that being Arena PVP, it was managed and controlled and set to the relevant level - often we'd have as much fun playing level 5s as we would lvl 50s.

I can also say that we tried some zone PVP but on the few occasions that I attempted it we generally got ganked by people with a lot more experience, and skill than most of us casuals, and probably better builds.

Maybe the hard core PVPer doesn't have the love for CoX that they once did, but that isn't where the sub base is.

Sorry if any offence was caused. It was supposted to be a joke. I'll delete the post.

Don't worry mate. If anyone gave it three times the attention your guides normally get, only 2 people read it.
