  1. in CoV, one of the issue 17 story arc (by contact Leonard) sends you to a bank where you apparently need to speak to the bank teller.

    I don't see what I can do to complete the mission, the three bank tellers at the desks don't react when I click them, and I don't find any other teller anywhere in the map.
  2. Hello all,

    Does anyone knows how I should write a macro to execute a costume change ?

    ie: I click the macro and change to costume slot 0 using EnergyMorph emote.


    Thanks very much for the help.

    I'm just wondering, will we ever shake this? Is the 'Wow Culture' just too hard to fight against?

    I was doing a Synapse TF yesterday with 3 controllers (Fire+Thermal, Illusion+Rad, Grav+Kin) and 2 defenders (FF+AR, Rad+Sonic), and yet despite all these buffs, debuffs and the sheer amount of control at our disposal, plus the fact they were all high level's exemplared down, there was a sense of sheer panic from some members that I had not included a tank in the roster.

    The other day I was doing a Posi TF and the leader (a tank), commented how Defenders are only good for healing. Thankfully some of the team quickly corrected him, but as a Force Field defender, it gets me down. This is not the first time I have heard such talk, with comments like "not enough defenders have heals these days" being something that sticks.

    Today, I ran a sister psyche TF. We had a tank, several blasters and a peacebringer. We also had 2 defenders, both of us being Force Fields. With 1 spot remaining what does the leader ask for? A healer. We managed to get him to invite a scrapper instead after a quick talk from some of the team, but it feels like an uphill struggle. Although I did enjoy the fact with 2 FF's in the team, everyone was pretty much a tank.

    Finally, in the last 3 days I have seen so many heros with the word "Healer" in their name. (All empaths). I've had Empaths proudly flashing a healer inscribed neon sign whilst looking for a team, only to rock the aura and do little else.

    With every new wave of players or returning players, it seems we have to refight the same war. You. Don't. Need. A. Healer!

    You don't need a tank either if controllers know what they are doing.

    I know this seems like a general consensus on the forums, but believe me ingame is a different matter.

    Oh well, rant over. :-)
    Agreed, agreed, and...oh, yes, agreed !

    When people know what they do, there is no required specific AT.
  4. When I go to the NC store, I am in the european section.
    As I play on US servers, I want to buy the US version of the mutant pack.
    How do I get it ? there used to be links to US versions of packs before, I don't see it here.

    As I had the problem with the first pack I bought, I want to be sure I get the right one.


    Thanks
  5. The client are already multi languages.
    I had my US clinet once changed to french, I had to change some parameters in the register base to go US english again.
  6. Yeah found it, thanks !

    I think the emotes and costume changes are awesome !

    "Fleshy headed mutant are you friendly?"

    "No way eh. Radiation has made me an enemy of civilization!"


    David and Jay and everyone... Please consult the above linked video (It's only a minute long) for further understanding of mutant characteristics.

    Thank you for your time!!
    Waitaminit ! were did you see artwork for the pack ?

    Backup radio is one I've never seen. What does it do ?
  10. I soooo love that when uber-know-it-all players come and unsign something.

    Not because it's bad for the game or because it would hurt them, just because they want others to play the same way they do - controllers and defender HAVE to team, kinetics MUST have speed boost, tanks or brutes MUST taunt, people should min/max using IO's...the list goes on.

    It's just a quality of life request, for Pete's sake ! and it would align Orobouros content with the rest of the game.

    I agree with Stone Armour relying way too heavily on Granite (without serious IO investment) Although really what 'kills' Stone for me (as in, I wont play it) is the combo of Granite and Rooted. Rootes, to me, is a horrible power. Stone itself, IMO, should be overhauled, but in Castles words, it something they have to tread real damn careful with.
    For me, what kills stone is the fuglyness of Granite.
    I never understood why they changed all the stone armor graphics but granite, back in the days.
  12. Taht made me laugh, well done !
  13. It could even be a primary for tank or secondary for scrapper.

    Your sidekick would be buffing you or giving you resist/protection auras, with eventually one or two attacks of his own (like the shiel have shield charge)

    Well, magazines and newspapers do that every day. Maybe they are too lazy to check, maybe they know informations are false but it makes money (well, not hte case here)

    There are plenty reasons for papers to leak false informations.

    I was going to say that. I already noticed they copied Statesman mask for Magneto's helmet a few years ago.
  19. Oh, I had some empty cells before the villain ones (didn't do all the shard and left it blank)
    Must be that, thank you !
  20. For some reason, I can't make it with the villain zones.
  21. Actualy, it works !!!

    (Not that I doubted it would, but I doubted I could make it work myself )

    I meant, coming from the guy who brought up CoH Splasher, it is to a certain degree cool.

    Sure, with your explanations, I feel stupid because I try to understand, and I see I don't have the brain for it, but 'll still try to use it.
  23. Like for the splasher, is it possible for us to create our own screens and upload them with this cool tool ?
