So in CO all characters with tails look like they're prepared to mate at all times?

IIRC velociraptors were about the size of turkeys, so they'd probably be better left for the swarm power and a larger species used for the tier one pets. Then again Allosaurs and Tyrannosaurs massed over a ton, so i have a feeling that accurate scale isn't a consideration.

Most people associate the name Velociraptor with the Deinonychus due to Spielberg combining the more imposing Deinonychus' appearance with the more impressive name of the Velociraptor.

Still who wouldn't want to command several 11' long critters like these?:

Amirite?

Edit: Actually, now that i think about it, Velociraptors being the size of turkeys could work for tier one pets, and use the 11' Deinonychus for the tier two pets.
Maybe one of the quadrupedal species for the tier three.

Bring me the spider and i'll do it.

And it's fairly common for venomous animals to use dry strikes when biting to conserve their venom even when they do bite. Venom usually represents a fairly large metabolic investment, so many animals avoid using theirs when trying to repel threats.

Even many critters with reputations for aggressive behavior can be docile if handled properly. This of course does not apply to things like Box jellyfish. The most complex of jellyfish, they also have the most dangerous venom.

Yeah, there's a huge difference in Posi runs depending on how experienced and/or small the team is.

The other week i did a Posi duo that finished in a bit over 70 minutes IIRC. The team for that run was my lowbie 14-ish Scrapper and an IO slotted 50 Scrapper. The infamous rescuing FEMA workers from CoT mission is easy when you can just pop a few purples and lead the workers out through the ambushes.

Large teams with several newbies (or worse, several n00bs) can take over four hours.

Just to elaborate on what Necrotech_Master posted: All procs placed in toggles only check when the toggle is first turned on and every ten seconds afterwards. However, target-affecting procs will check against every target in range whenever it does trigger.

Generally speaking, target affecting procs are usually considered most effective when placed in short recharge powers or click AoEs. Ideally both.

i will concede that actually having most spiders and centipedes on me triggers a reflexive action resulting in sudden extreme acceleration of the critter when i'm not forewarned. Dangerous spiders and centipedes creep me out when in close proximity, but not so much at a remove.

no u!

(Sorry, i got here too late to actually contribute anything of substance.)

Seriously though, this is one of the best game communities i've encountered. Which is to say there are some jackholes, but even more helpful people.

It's also virtually impossible with a team of players who do inherit the hover.
Tried it once with a full team and after about five hops only one teammate was still with me. The rest were left to drop at one of the previous hops.

Unpossible! It clearly mirrors their writing skill!

To be fair, early on i misread part of the Dark Mirror info before first posting about it myself.

Some1 is Hero 1's cousin. True story.

Actually, according to the OP, we're all leaving anyway.* Of course the forum cartel neglected to inform me of this. Just like always. *sighs*

*Though i suppose that it could also be taken to mean that we're already gone. My point about the forum cartel neglecting to tell me still stands.

Awwww... So kewt!

(And no, Cleb, they most likely do not eat her. There are a number of predatory species, invertebrates and vertebrates alike, with young that are sheltered by their mother without consuming her. But if it makes you more secure in your image of the world to think that, who am i to stop you?)

Statement of agreement with quoted sentiment. Ridicule of quoted poster for thinking that it would actually work.

Snarky comment about mods inconsiderately moving thread to different forum without personally informing poster. Request for pictures of boobies and tits.

You post that as if it was significant to the conversation. These threads tend to quickly turn into back and forth discussions even after the OP has already posted to say that they were done with the topic, and Doctor_Bob hasn't even done that.

Which seems terribly unlikely. How about 'unless they only make mail accessible at the character select screen?' i think it's just as likely.

It kind of sounds like trying to invent problems out of whole cloth to justify the otherwise unnecessary and less useful solution.

Only somewhat. Mez resistance does help prevent mez stacking if the inital mez isn't enough to overcome your protection by making the mez wear off sooner, and for mezzes like knockdown and knockup it directly reduces the magnitude.

Also, under the old rules for mezzes the toggle would turn off, not just suppress, so you quickly lost the resistance anyway once you were mezzed and consequently detoggled...

Mids' was taken over by the Titan Network IIRC after the Mids could no longer keep it updated. i don't have the link here at work, but i believe you need to get the version now hosted on the Titan Network to use the current Mids'.

Well, i'm pretty sure that for suppression purposes mez resistance is treated the same as actual mez protection. Something to double check the next i play one of my squishies.

Shady url unrelated to quoted image.

Vaguely related post stating anticipation of reaching post 6,666. States goal to be achieved by making posts in response to threadjacking posts from other posters concerning post count.

Abruptly referencing original poster's complaints and suggesting OP's need for RL gratification as real reason for OP.

Rhetorical question regarding life cycle of plankton and awkward segue into insisting that thread will soon be locked by a moderator.

i kind of liked how it started haltingly and then built up a rhythm as it went along in an attempt at suggesting increasing agitation. But maybe that's just me. Rebuttal insisting that as a non-programmer i know that the fix is simple and that the Dev is simply being lazy. Paranoid assertion that quoted poster is actually a Dev posting under an alt account.
