    At least I'm not sacrificing powers I really really want just so I can have a little extra endurance (which on observation I find Stamina doesn't always work as well as you say it does).

    What, pray tell, constitutes "playing smarter" in this context? Your post comes off to me as rather smug and uninformative.
    Occasionally creating a blue when you think you need one or using your low endurance attacks when you reach 1/4th of your bar. Turning off sprint. Those're just a couple of the tricks I use and so far they've done me well.

    Don't forget their mortal enemies the Circle of Thorns frequenting the same roads.

    Ah, then he's a liar.
  5. Searching Google, this appears to be a common problem with anyone who uses Clicksor.com. So don't use it.

    What server are you on? Because I have never seen a circuit board cost that much in the Black Market.

    They're not taking a nap, they're just stopping to catch their breath before continuing. Y'know, like how a real person would.

    Having once had a retard of a stalker trying to tank a Hero while I was on my /Pain MM and later blaming me for his endless faceplanting for not healing him exclusively, I have to get this off my chest.


    MASTERMINDS ARE NOT HEALERS. WE ARE NOT YOUR PERSONAL MEDICS. IF YOU'RE FACEPLANTING OVER AND OVER YOU ARE DOING IT WRONG!!!
  9. Yeah, I've already gotten it on a handful of characters because of the new teaming system.

    Welcome fellow conceptor!!

    The dark numbers are the comparison numbers.
    Thanks for that useful link. I see the 9800 GT is just slightly better than my 9500 GS. Considering the game already runs smoothly on my system and I have the 8MB RAM and the AMD Phenom x4 9750, I'm more confident that my system will barely feel Ultra Mode's weight.

  14. Some of us don't use it, actually, and we manage just fine.

    Oh yeah, writing is very easy. All you have to do is stare at a blank piece of paper until your forehead bleeds.*

  17. Okay, now I'm a little worried about my 9500 GS running smoothly. Thing is, I also have 8GB of RAM and an AMD Phenom X4 9750, which I hope will help carry the rest.

    Hey, it was the biggest, baddest computer I could find.

    We need a who dunnit on this game!!!!

    [btw i know its spelt done it, but like it that way too ]
    Well someone writes the story lore in this game. I doubt it writes itself.
  19. Give me a ring anytime you'd like. Teaming villain side is rough when 99% of the population turns you down.

    Paladins have a knack of accumulating if no one bothers to kill them off. I think I saw a total of four or five once.

    After killing a couple ambushes, you Immmediately Fail The Mission.

    If you mean "someone" as in the whole Internet, then you're right.
