[/ QUOTE ]

True. We just need to be glad that he's gone for good and never ever coming back.

[/ QUOTE ]

Incredible Pyro is back. Just thought you ought to know

Has been done on the US forums before these and the Developers haven't said anything against it GrinningSpade. Therefore, I don't see where the problem lays.

Personally, I don't have anything against it, but at the moment, I wouldn't partake of it. As much of a grind as the road to 50 is getting after I've managed to level 13 toons/goons to level 50, I'd still like to see how the powers develop for new alts, even if the story arcs on both sides are getting a bit stale.

[/ QUOTE ]

I know that the Developers haven't spoken against it. I know it is not forbidden. Despite all that. I still think it is a bit pathetic to make use of such a service. Plus I still think this is not the place to advertise such a service.

By all means, let the devs make a special forum for trading influence and while they are at it. Let them put ads on that threat for pro leveling farmer services if they like. Maybe it brings in extra revenue who knows.

[/ QUOTE ]

Then blank it out. Deny that it exists. Just stop moaning about it, because no matter how much you moan vs something which isn't against the EULA and the devs haven't said so much as the word "naughty" to, it ain't gonna do anything. Except provoke/instigate a 'right or wrong' argument (which will eventually get locked).

Yes, you may think it is wrong. Others think different. Live with it. (apologies for not wrapping my words in cotton wool)

Don't forget that FM is shiny

Psst! You can do a dual build! (I have no idea why I am whispering though, not that you can tell as this is text based )

Pity it's arena and not zonal

[/ QUOTE ]

Zones are broken, aren't they. They have the arena mechanics, but none of the zone improvements up, right?

[/ QUOTE ]

Not a scooby doo, but I'd still like something zonal to be planned (even with i13's changes)

I think we get the point TRT

[ QUOTE ]
Well Mom, i am back and will love to join you again if you'll ever decide to give it another go. My only level 50 is Psy-knight (still ) but i think Apostle will get to level 45 soon (currently level 42).

Best Regards,
Knightly

Psst! The Hive is a lvl 50 zone now (if I am not mistaken)

A BIG GROUP PVP ARENA BATTLE!!!

Winners get to decide how pvp works from now on


[/ QUOTE ]


I'll fight in this. In fact make it just me vs all. True evidence that skill > everything else.




Me and DJ are in the process of sorting out a team arena league so this will happen soon™

It's just hard to get a hold of each other. I might post something today but it will only be preliminary stuff.

I havent had a single email about CoH in months. Regarding issue 13 live or the winter event, is that correct or am i off their system?

[/ QUOTE ]

Maybe they don't love you any more Damz

Must be for a set. Any bets on what the set could be?

[ QUOTE ]
Firstly what secondry do you have Repair bots is either a waste depending on secondry power my bots mm has FF and medicine i find was a better choice to add in a self heal aswell

[/ QUOTE ]

I agree with this. If its either FF or Pain I wouldn't bother, but it all depends on the secondary.

[ QUOTE ]
It just seems to be such a missed opportunity to help get the player base back up again, especially wiht all the Mac users joining us!


[/ QUOTE ]

Are they expecting a lot of mac users to start playing? I mean if they are bringing out CoX for the mac I should imagine so, but i wouldn't be surprised if this turned out to be another idea gone hitting the fan.

A BIG GROUP PVP ARENA BATTLE!!!

[/ QUOTE ]

This would probably lead on to more arguments and endless debates from both sides, as well as comments from those who think they know what they are talking about when it comes to pvp when infact they don't pvp at all (or ever have pvp'ed).
The phrase "vicious circle" springs to mind.

But I'd be well up for that, just so that I can get some pvp action.

Silly question, but Union or Defiant if you are serious about going ahead with this plan, Fahie?

Mind is unappealing heroside due to the fact it has no pets, but mind is very strong as a powerset.

Mind has all the pets it wants: it's called "Confuse" and "Mass Confusion".

Ah, you are wise for one with such fluffy blue ears. Here...have a carrot

I chose Ice Melee for concept and the Hold. Plus, the attack form the primary fills the gap of a decent Tier 9 in the Secondary.

[/ QUOTE ]

Their's nothing wrong with the Tier 9 in Ice Melee - Frozen Aura does the same damage as Footstomp and its all Cold which is less resisted than most damage types.

[/ QUOTE ]

Footstomp with or without rage active?

I would read the build but it seems i cannot see the colour you posted in
So thanks for making me aware that i need to visit the opticians, but sorry that i couldn't put some constructive comments about your build

[ QUOTE ]
How do YOU bring down a superspeeding, bunnyhopping blaster or defender as a meeletoon ?

[/ QUOTE ]


[ QUOTE ]
The travel powers in CoX make it even worse, bunnyhopping, flying, superspeeding, superjumping even widens the gap between meele vs ranged.


[/ QUOTE ]

i12 PvP - Hunter, in the wild, trying to get that elusive kill...a challenge and rewarding if successful.

i13 PvP - Hunter, in a zoo...pick a cage, any cage.


The fast paced action is what sets (or rather used to) CoX apart from all other MMO PvP. And its that which makes it a challenge. I play a scrapper in pvp, and its so rewarding getting a kill due to these difficulties.

But if you don't like a challenge, then maybe Solitaire is a better game for you. Lucky christmas is coming, santa might bring you a copy.

Mind is unappealing heroside due to the fact it has no pets, but mind is very strong as a powerset.

Personally I'd recommend:

Tank - Fire/SS: High damage both good for team play and soloing, along with good res and a rather fast self heal

Scrapper - BS/SR (or fire) : High ST damage, and very good defenses with the new i13 defense buff, plus good recharge (SR). Fire speaks for itself

Blaster - Psi/Energy: High damage (seeing a theme here? ) which is quite unresisted, with self buffs which make this setup rather sick.
or
Fire/MM: Lots of heavy ST and AoE damage, which is awesome for getting teams with imo due to how fast it can kill.

Controller - Illusion/Rad: AV killer. nuff said.

Defender - As Phantoms said, empath is a very safe bet for getting a team, but if healing the team isn't your style then I'd say go for Kin/Elec. Very fun to play, and is a self sustaining machine, providing you are "on the ball".

GIVE BLASTERS BACK THE UNRESISTABLE DAMAGE PORTION

This would make Shen happy (and a lot of other people)

Happy birthday dude.

Don't forget to make a wish (for beer preferably, always a good wish)

[ QUOTE ]
Now i remember that EM as the single target dmg king not long ago but with its nerf to ET is that still the case?

[/ QUOTE ]

The animation time was increased to just short of 3 seconds (2.7 iirc?) but the damage is still awesome.

DM/SR should be ok soloing EBs, but imo not AVs. AVs have stupidly high accuracy, so not even the -acc from DM and the defense buff for SR from i13 will help you, if they hit, its going to hurt. Only 1 type of character I know that can solo AVs and that's a ill/rad controller with perma PA. I think the brute will hit the floor before it has done any considerable amount of damage to the AV.

Nevertheless DM is still a good option because negative energy damage isnt resisted as much. But the other options i'd suggest is either SS or EM. However SS is all smash damage which there is a fair amount of resistance to it, and EM has a lot of slow animation times.

[ QUOTE ]
That wouldn't work. Mitoes and Hami have a huge agro range and the blasters wouldn't be able to damage the green mitoes enough. Another wrong opinion I see...

[/ QUOTE ]

First of all it was an Idea, not an Opinion. Someone with an ounce of intelligence would have recognised that.

Secondly, I'm not going to waste any more time with you if all you can come out with is rubbish to try whatever point you are trying to prove.

I'm not going say anymore in regards to you because I am not getting in trouble with GR just because of your childish antics. Have a good day SweetChilli.

Shield/SS would appear to be FoTM for the Shield Bash + Footstomp combo, hurl also looks badass one handed

[/ QUOTE ]

I've seen a lot more Shield/EM than Shield/SS, but I agree that it is a great combo. Shame Tankers are never gonna get the elec sets, the Shield Charge/Lightning Rod combo is rather nice on a brute
