There is no such thing is 'too much'

The recharge on several powers is still pretty long, with ice you are just pretty sure you have a -recharge ready at any given moment.

(i really love /time)

Isnt it quite odd that a set that gives you a second change (fire, dark, WP) is not allowed to use this? Roleplay wise it still makes sence.

Back to dark, rely on your healing _alot_. As long its hit, its even better then fire armor healing, as long you can pay the endurance. Fire melee? Bad choice imho. You want survive, you pick a survival set. Ice with ice patch, aoe sleep and a hold has huge survivability, but also SS and even DM have a great way of staying on the 'alive' side.

I do like the idea of the SG though, sadly i am kinda suicidal, or just a highly experienced hospital-teleport-tester.

I have a 600KB/ish uploadspeed, i could zip up the folder at put it somewhere? Though the server would be EU located, unlikely it will give any speed for you US people.

Edit, i dont have any host available that can hold 3GB of data Did you run the launcher as admin?

You guys are using the old CoH patcher or the new launcher? Normaly i was always the slow one on the old CoH patcher (specialy US one), but the launcher (EU zone selected) is pweeeheeeheetty fast.

To be expected

Then again, Barca vs Milan was pretty funny

Amazing, someone else picking Merc/TA.

From day 1 CoV started, i've played a merc/TA, it was not untill later that i noticed my damage was far far far from bots or necro.

TA partly has a right to be the 'underrated' set, but only because of borked game mechanics, not what the set actualy offers. Both sonic Arrow (aoe -res) as oilpatch-arrow still make the pet's AI totaly borked. From random running from the patch (wich never got fixed) to become completely uncontrolable (though this was worse then it is now).

The set itself is pretty nice, though lack of healing and the suicidal medic, its not the most easiest/efficient to play. The -res is pretty strong, glue arrow and ice arrow are working nicely, the only odd 2 are Flashbang arrow (does a -hit, but seems to not always work) and EMP arrow. This last one is very very strong (alike the EMP from epic blaster) but it puts your recovery to -100% for 10seconds or so.

Mercs itself, though i must note i am pretty fed up with them already, are pretty much the underperforming set of all MM pets. Although Ninja's defense is borked, their damage and utility makes up for it. Mercs rely only on DoT's, from burst to mini-fullauto, making this highly annoying when a mob is defeated and they are still standing their emptying their clips. The seals (spec ops?) have the most terrible utility, though flash/stun/imobilise is good, the recharge of these powers are insane. Also they have stealth ability.. untill today i still doing know why (they random pop in and pop out). Commando is ok, its basicly a AR blaster (with very annoying grenade), though sources once said it could also summon a turret, i never seen him do this. LRM missile is 99% of the time used at the wrong moment, same for full-auto (all mobs, he wont use. last mob, he pops FA).

Bots/traps i give my vote, bots are lovely, they heal, u can repair, they bubble (and u bubble), traps got lovely debuffs and soakers (seeker drones).

Thugs/thermal is somewhat odd, as said. Though if you just face +1/+2 max, its a very very effective set, Brute gets lovely resistance and Forge, while having AoE healing and single target healing. The revive doesnt work on pets though.

I have a thugs/pain, wich is somewhat the same, the slight lack of defense is easily compensated by the healing, though i never fight anything higher then +2.

Launcher blowing here at 4.8MB/sec, not that often i see a huge expension going this rapid

With the very important one about the person who claims to trigger it:

The exact system and method MARTy works, is only known to the devs. This is the case now, this will be the case tomorow.

Sadly the main topic went into a 'OMG I READ THIS SO ITS TRUE!' topic. Unless i see clear proof of someone doing stuff within proper game mechanics (and ToS) being caugt by MARTy, i will continue to say, it wont affect us at all.

Interesting one, i have to check my blaster who has the cold epic, wich also has a defense and resistance element.

Tinypic and photobucket bork out pretty often here, i dont really mind why.

Same goes for all those other 'worldwide free full of advertisment and popup crap' websites.

On my laptop i just added all those websites to my host file and direct them to my local webserver, instantly giving me a 404. Fast and easy, i dont mind a few missing pictures.

I gave a quick spin to 11.4, though it seems more stable, my framerate dropped massive.

Sadly i do get crashes, but instead of just CoH not responding, my entire computer locks up. Not sure if i'm more happy about it.

Dude serious, post this in every server forum?

I just gonna copy 1 of my toons to VIP, easy enough.

I skip beam rifle completly, but i go for time manipulation corrupter, defender and MM.

Then maybe EA scrapper or brute, dark blaster seems nice too.

But most of all, i just continue what i was doing pre-I21.

Because unstoppable is actualy crap? Thats no rocket science.

At the end, i care little. I got my incarnate judgement wich is far far superiour to any nuke i have.

12am untill 11PM, sigh.. Basicly 'yet another' full day downtime, a very slim chance the servers will up and fully running after the maintaince is done.

I'm running a DM/EA on testserver, i love him. All the powers have great synergy on eachother, drain, heal, -tohit +def. Even +recharge works great on drain soul/err the other one. Minor downside, little AoE.
