I just pissed my pants.....


Does this mean that no more Numina Unique in health or stamina?

Do we have a video yet of the panel?

I just finished talking to a dell rep about upgrading videocard and with a 300w PSU I can only go up to an ATI Radeon HD 4650. He said upgrading my PSU is not recommended for an Inspiron 570?

How true is this?

Which driver to update?

ATI Radeon™ Video Card Drivers

Motherboard/Integrated Video Drivers

for some reason hijack isnt working for me

Now it is saying that the display drivers have failed?

Ive been getting many "Program Not Responding" messages the last few days...what could be the cause?

Will this new driver cause my system to restart completely?

my first MM ever is Demonz/Poison....

I am sorta liking the set but I am afraid that the debuffs are kinda ST...is this good or bad? I can really feel the Masterscrapper feel since I am taking the whips and not antidote and Elixer of life.

Any comments or tips?

What constitutes a gamebreaker?

Its an optional feature why would it break the game, all I am reading is a lot of fear and BS...why not try it in test and see how it works instead of going all apes*** about how it might break the system.

Snow Globe...what's your problem?

Woot! In all my 5 years on Champion with The Blackguards, WDL2 and Elite Legends...Ive never done a Hami Raid

Hoe is Mind/Psi/Psionic?

I am trying to figure out the best route both conceptually and numerically.

I have a Mind/Psi/Leviathan and from that I took Bile Spray and Water Spout, would gameplay improve taking the Psionic Mastery APP?

I know, Lilli is awesome!


Lilli, can Link Minds benefit from the set slotting like Mind Link from the SoA VEAT? I can slot a defense IO that has Defense/Recharge or a Defense IO that is just recharge.

I use them in both Widow Builds.

-Fortunata Build:
LotG: Defense/Recharge--It grants 23.6% recharge
Adjusted Targeting : Recharge--It grants 33.3% recharge

This gives it a 60% recharge rate making the SoA ML go from 5 min recharge to 3 minutes

-Night Widow:
Kismet: Defense/Recharge--It grants 21.8% recharge
adjusted Targeting: Recharge--It grants 33.3% recharge
Serendipity: Recharge/defense it grants 24.1% recharge

This gives it a 79% recharge rate making the SoA ML go from 4 mins to 2.14 minutes

-------

Has this been tested for the Dominator Link Minds? Granted that at that level we don't have many slots to freely give up but if it would enhance defense,recharge and maybe endurance.

I have several of these recipes in storage just in case I make another SoA but this might serve the build for my Mind/Psi.

My other Dom issue when it comes to the new *PP is that I am trying to figure out whether to drop Leviathan Mastery ( Water Spout/Bile Spray ) for Psionic Mastery ( Psionic Tornado, Link Minds )

also... do the pets timeout and die or are they like the Animate Stone pet? Ive never seen an Illusion Controller since my time in Paragon City was short compared to The Rogue Isles

We'll have the option of APP or PPP when we go rogue so I really dont know about the *PP.

having another pet is a tempting order but would the legacy APP be better?

Well Champion Redside is as empty as a diabetics sugarbowl so I would solo but we can dual build so either is fine

I plan on taking Illusion/Cold to The Rogue Isles...What powers to avoid from both set and what would be a better choice, APP or Leviathan Mastery?

Leviathan Mastery has Bile Spray and Water Spout and Cold/Smashing in the Coralax pet.

I was wondering what would be the next best videocard or a better videocard would be great.
