  1. QR- If it makes you feel any better I probably deleted 50 of those IOs from the old Katie runs...

    I wanna see someone get genericed in front of me someday. It's already funny enough when a genericed character shows up and everyone makes fun of them.

    I actually have seen this. I was on a cavern of Trancendence trial years ago, and we had HULK. on our team (lol) Mid mission while we are beating up trolls we all see him go running into the next group...then poof! he turns from a gamma green giant into a rainbow colored generic costume and is now named Generic 00101293784...lol

    He of course gets furious and /RAGEQUITS the TF, dooming us to a restart.

    I actually think one of our group was the one who reported him, and we all had a good laugh about it, although no one fessed up to being the narc. Needless to say its one of the funnier things Ive ever seen in game.

    I cant remember his exact tirade before his /RAGEQUIT, but it was also epic. I just wish I had screenshotted the event.
  3. I hope you didnt include your return address. the DEA is probably monitoring his mail.

  5. Its not really IF you can solo a pylon on a softcap blaster...its HOW FAST?

    I think the DM and Claws scrappers were putting out times under 5-6 mins.

    I havent timed my Fire/em on a pylon, but I have soloed a few - next time I will have to pay attention to the time.

    What do people think would be a good time for a pylon on a blaster?

    I wonder if Sonic softcapped wouldnt be fastest... but all I have are fire/em, fire/mm, and ice/ice with softcap builds. After my current in game projects are over I might have to visit this idea to see what kind of times I come up with for the different builds.

    Anyone got a time to post as a benchmark?

    No.

    I duo this TF in 1:15 minutes consistently. Dont take away my merit maker just because people cant seem to understand running it at lvl 10 in a full group of melee is insane.

    Run it in a duo or trio of ranged/support and you too can profit from this badly designed TF!

    I seriously cant make close to the merits/hour I make on this TF with anything else, but I understand the design flaws that make this a nightmare for low lvl toons it was actually designed for... but I still loves my easy merits.

    so, No.

    Ok, so maybe I'm comparing it too much to Fulcrum Shift (I play a number of Kineticists).


    [/ QUOTE ]

    Even compared to the arguably most powerful power in the game (FS), it still is awesome. It just does its awesome differently.

    Heat Loss is simply insane.

    If you are looking for powers to complain about Heat Loss is not the power you are looking for. Move along.
  11. My vid card got old and bad a few years back and I had to switch to lower settings to play at all for a week. not a fun week.

    If I had to play like that all the time I would rather not play.

    If in basic gameplay I cannot accept buffs and fully contribute to my teams I would rather not play.

    Memory is cheap, a decent card is pretty cheap. make it work. or play something that your computer can support... like minesweeper...

    slotting health

    You realise the +regen of those Ios is increased by your health heal slotting right? I would throw a 6th slot in there and use a Numinas heal to up my %s for regen.

    I like to slot my health to ED cap if possible when using the +regen IOs, since they also benefit.

    Plus you get an extra 12% regen set bonus that way too.

    Pancea +HP/End
    Numina +regen/Rec
    Numina heal
    Miralce heal
    Miracle +rec
    Regen tissue +regen

    Thats the best rich guy slotting I guess. I personally use all but the Pancea unique and I have a Numinas heal/end in its place for the HP bonus and capped heal % in health. I aint paying 400 mil for no pancea, and Im a one account guy so theres no easy way to farm one.

    The Challenge...

    I don't believe so, but, then again, the OP hasn't posted in this thread to actually let us know who won.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Um I think its clear that the OP himself won.

    He got you suckers to make him a build for free!

    But why stop at two?

    Happy birthday dude.

    As far as I can tell, this guy spends an inordinate amount of time in online communities and eventually pisses people off with his relentless "attention-[censored]." He appeared to get a clue around last Christmas, when he posted his long goodbye post describing his internet problems.

    But nope, he came back and situated himself on Protector. Now he's asking the disinterested forum community at large if he should stay, so that he can tell the naysayers to S T F U.

    That's not a good thing. Online interaction is exactly what they don't need. It actually reinforces bad behavioral patterns and if things start to go south with people, as in this case, they just hop in to another community and repeat the same cycle.



    [/ QUOTE ]

    Yeah. I bet no one saw this one coming...

    This is why I solo, online gaming seems to attract alot of these. I sill keep JS on a tab when I play, but have found it harder and harder to listen in nowdays with all the attention [censored] going on.

    I wish you all the best PK, but I really hope you are listening to some of whats being said here and can bring about some changes to make sure this pattern stops.

    Gravity (Again)

    With the changes to /Energy for Doms I have been patiently waiting for some changes to Grav/ so I can get her past 39 after 4 years of poor gameplay options.

    I would welcome changes to Grav distortion (lower rech), Wormhole (lower activation plus increased radius), and undoubtably dimension shift (remove/replace/completely revamp) as these are the most glaring problems of the set IMO, but tweaking lift/propel would also be more then welcome- especially propel for doms... without containment its not good.

    so /signed. Grav is a cool powerset which really needs some love to get on track/on par with the other control sets (especially for Doms).

    I know people that have been actively playing for 4+ years and cant play worth a damn. Not pl'd. No farming. Lots of hot cat girl ERP. RPers seem to be the players that cant figure how to play.

    I swear to God ive teamed with more then my share of these... they are the RL version of Fusionette in game...

    "checking my salvage, one sec!", "Tee Hee", "Look how cool my rocket boots are!", "/em licks"

    And then you check their badges and see they have 60 months. And yet they still dont know that pulling with fireball on an 8 man team with your blaster might not be the safest option.

    "I know, but it looks pretty!", "Anyone got a wakie?",
    "hey I can see my underwear when im lying here on the ground LOLROFLCOPTER11!1!!!"

    For some people learning the game is not important no matter how long they play.
  22. Man this sucks. only 10 years old too... i'm so sorry, bud.
