Ever since enemy defeat animations were changed to ragdoll physics events, I believe. It could be that the clientside event is the only thing that interrupts the last emote the target was in and was just skipped thus the emote did not stop. Still a bug, though.

[/ QUOTE ]

I agree. Either that or a possible data loss issue? I'm guessing, so that may be way off target. I would think that data loss would affect the entire scene though, not just that one event.

The other funny sight is the standing mobs hanging limp after being killed - like the scarecrow in Wizard of Oz with the arms dangling lol. I think that particular occurance is just part of ragdoll physics though, whereas the dead mobs not knowing they are dead is another matter.

That being said, the ragdoll physics are great. One of the coolest additions to gaming ever IMO.

What is there to "take care of"? Aside from a little bit of comic relief, there is no negative impact to gaming. This has been around as long as I've been playing and I doubt it's going to get fixed.

[/ QUOTE ]

The "take care of" being a graphics glitch, as in not working as it is supposed to; but as I acknowledged in my OP, it's not game breaking...

Just curious if anything was going to be done about it. If not, I'll live.

You kill a mob (or several) and the mobs stand there still going through their animations even though they have been reduced to 0 health (empty health bar).

Found one post on this. Seems that this bug has been around for a while. Any word on this being taken care of? It's not game-breaking, but it does look pretty ridiculous.

This is on both hero and villain side.

My former main toon was very similar except for a few things.
For one, I'm curious as to why Weave was not taken. I've noticed it left out of quite a few builds lately - has it been nerfed recently? I stopped playing my main DM/Regen scrapper after IH was changed to a click and was thinking about dusting him off and respeccing. Should I leave Weave out or is it still worth taking?
Other things I had on my scrapper were Dark Consumption and I had skipped Shadow Punch.
I understand things have changed quite a bit for regen, but Shadow was a killing machine at one time - what do you guys think? Worth taking out of mothballs?

There's got to be an "acronym dictionary for gamers" or the like somewhere. If not, someone needs to make one and sticky it!

Yes, should be stickied.

Yeah I just noticed it today!
*pleads DOH!*

Yeah but in this context he is talking about the "mob" being used to describe each spawn using a sort of "gamer speak" based on Moveable OBject. I was once told it stood for "monster or beast". *Shrugs*
Not that big a deal really. I was wondering the same thing when I first started playing RPG's (no idea how long you've been playing). I remember thinking "why are they calling one monster a mob?".

Nothing following any "tweak to regen" is a good thing. There is nothing wrong with regen - please leave it alone. We are still victims of the alpha strike like anyone else. Healing rate is what regen is all about. If you nerf that - we are have zilch. If people are complaining that we are too powerful, then maybe they need to look to getting their own AT boosted rather than beating down ours. Please leave regen alone Statesman.

I'm sure after you get a little extra resistance (which is what the subject of that sentence is about) you'll thank him, right?

for an hour now, AN HOUR i have been reading this post. not gonna say im a speed reader but im damn well not as slow as this is taking, when i first started it was 13 pages it is now 21 and about 15/20 of all posts are scrapper related, why dont people understand that after 5-6 maybe at the most 10 hell never mind after 5 at the most posts on the same topic and no reply from the OP in this case being States. that you should drop the subject. or atleast complain about it on another thread, hell if i thought it would help i would have started a thread for it myself. yes we have the right to complain, yea i understand well how you feel after reading god knows how many posts on the subject, but after about the 30th i lost all the pity i felt for you guys posibly having your power set screwed ovr do to the fact that i havent seen any regen scrapers respecting the OPs post (apoligys to any that werent complaing about it and acctually didnt mind it) i have been through many nerfs playing Ultima Online and alot ofcourse i didnt like, nvr did i quit, i ended up quiting out of boredom of the game and came to play CoH, it happens, its part of MMORPGS get used to it or dont play. BTW he never said he was nerfing he said he was tweaking that has been posted by many other people and nobody gets it, and replys with a message that looks identical to 30 other ones.

If it affected your main, you'd be posting too Sean.
BTW - was fun teaming with you against Adamastor

It's particularly bitter for Regen, since we have to go through 27 suck-[censored] levels just to get to a decent spot. Then we have a brief moment of feeling like, I dunno, a hero. Now that's gonna get ganked.


[/ QUOTE ]

This probably won't make me any friends, but I suggest that going through 27 levels of hell with Regen comes from a refusal to partake of dull pain and reconstruction during those levels.

[/ QUOTE ]

I don't think it was hell at all - but it was not "easy". Used Dull Pain and Recon frequently. I enjoyed those levels and feel that IH is a reward for all the work done.
I also feel that the IH **IS** necessary the way it is for the higher levels. Any kind of "tweak" to make it less effective will make us easy kills for higher level MOB's who hit MUCH harder in the 30's-40's and will take away what makes regen......regen.

2. After analysis, Scrappers CAN NOT reach the same levels of resistance as a Tank. Regeneration, though, is a small concern.


[/ QUOTE ]

You know, he didn't exactly say that regen scrappers are too strong here. Maybe what he is refering to is the tweak many of us regen scrappers have been hinting at for a while. You know, where Fast Healing actually becomes worth something and IH isn't the only power anybody cares about except for Integration? More like a rebalancing than a nerf. At least I hope that's what he's talking about.

[/ QUOTE ]

Man I wish you were right, but what does your gut tell you?

Yay, just when my Regen Scrapper is finally coming into his own (after 6 slotting tough AND weave and 6 slotting QR AND Stamina) here comes the nerf bat. Groovy. Just when I found a class I actually enjoyed.


So a Scrapper soloing an AV is an issue, but a Controller soloing an AV and no one complains. I hope everyone realizes that any properly slotted Scrapper is as good as or better than Regen and once DA gets its fix, it will be right up there. Devs caving in on the Regen whining posts is absolutely retarded. This is just adding insult to injury after our last 2 powers in the Regen line are absolutely useless forcing people to take Pool powers and appearing over powered.

[/ QUOTE ]

My thoughts exactly. *Sniff *sniff.....starting to smell like SWG nerfwise......

Concern = small tweak.

Don't worry Regen Scrappers!
