    Sirens call help

    I agree with Sharker. My Claw/DA (I know lawls) is great in SC without Acro. 3 KB IOs work fine for them. One in a shield, one in SS, one in SJ. All I need in SC. Suprisingly, he does good x.o

    Of course, this is Virtue PvP and the villians there are lol alone. Even MY villains in SC. (exception with my MM, sadly).

    Anyways we should stop thinking pre-i13 cause it won't be that ever again =P

    Claws 4 Brutes

    My claws scrapper kicks butt in Virtue PvP...
    Proc-heavy and fully slotted, Claws can be a killer in PvP with two ranged attacks and Laser Eye Beams >.>

    Anyways, I can't wait for claws with brutes. I might actually be able to get one past lvl 34... I only have 4 brutes stuck there...
    Fire/Stone
    DB/Fire
    Elec/Stone
    Mace/Shield

    Maybe I can finally get one through that rut for me x.x
  3. Ya. I got rescheduled this week, like, monday. Which sucked cause I worked 6 shifts in the last 3 days... so I worked a total of 36 hours in 72 hours worth of time. I couldn't make the team :/ Also didn't help that my battery on my car died on my way home from work on Tuesday. So Tuesday, I left my home at 5:30 am and didn't get home until 10:30 pm cause of work and car probems! Yay!

    Anyways, I need to catch up on Cleaver anyways, Finish that last Hollows Mission, and I'll do Agent G's arc through the Ouros. I did Sam's mission, interesting O.x
  4. Problem fixed, I should be able to join now.

    Cox Cable had faulty cable boxes, and rerouted me around two bad spots my IP was taking me through to connect to the CoX servers.
  5. Glad to say, my problem is fixed.

    Thanks to CoH and all the support crew that helped ^^

    Cox Cable fixed around 5 boxes in my area that they said were malfunctioning (in their own right) and wired me around two bad places they saw on my IP. I'm actually going faster than ever in the game, can access all the servers again.

    Thanks to all you guys (and gals) for helping me along. Only took 4 days for it to all be sorted out.
  6. Wish i could of been there!

    Glad you all had fun. I'll make it next time... (All the gaming places were packed, and couldn't get a computer til it was over *sigh*)

    Is RV Safe?!!

    So, on Thursday I got HUGE spikes of lag on Virtue... to the point I was forcibly disconnected. I found out... I have a IP route that tosses me into a bad node. So, I can't play on Virtue! Which SUCKS. Hopefully it'll be up tonight, and I can get to the party... if not... well... I don't know what I'll do to get there @.@

    Madisen.... where do you live and how can I get there? >.>

    Edit: Only servers I can play on are Champion, Victory and Protector. -.-

    [/ QUOTE ]
    Strike that, can't play on ANY server now -.-
  9. I like the idea of keeping the Virtue LFG Alpha. Like what Stormy said before, and madisen before him, it's a good source of getting reliable people, and great teammates. With AE chat, we can get anyone, from a AE50 noob (sorry if that affends anyone) to someone who could be the best Hero/Villain out there.

    Either way, I wouldn't want to team with them, I find both sides of the spectrum are too chancy. Lets stay with our V LFG A community

  11. I don't know my schedule til Sunday PM... PST, but I do know I have Sunday off.

    FYI: I'm stuck without being able to play on Virtue atm. Actually, the only servers I can play on are Protector, Justice and Champion. Something to do with a bad IP address route. CoX and Cox (My internet provider) are working on it as we speak, but they say it might take from 1 day to a month. So hope that it doesn't take too long!
  12. Cool cool. Thanks for the help guys, Cox said that they'll try to work me around the bad spot. Lets see if they do.

    Christopher from tech support (City of heroes) is now the one on my case, and asked for more specifics. I'm pretty sure it'll be fine soon.
  13. Eh. Lets just hope something can get worked out.

    Just went to Best Buy with dad, and I asked the Geek Squad about it. Well, I'm not the only one in this area they said. They had about 10 other people coming in saying that it's happening to them as well. They don't have a solution, cause they don't work with the internet, but they think it's the area I live in now. They've called around and no other "Geek Squad Cave" is getting any reports of it. My internet provider now knows about it. *smiles* Maybe it's just a local connection changing the route on us in this area.

    Anyways, thanks for all the help. I'm pretty sure it'll get fixed sooner rather than later... hopefully.
  14. Well, I did a net/graph 1 this morning, down to 545 ping on Virtue, 345 on Guardian, and 450 on Pinnacle. I did get a message from CoH saying that they have been having a problem with that one with others.

    EDIT:Carlos from Technical Support is helping me atm. (per email)

    Cox (My internet provider) Says they can't do anything on their side, because it's not one of thiers? I dunno.

    So i can't play the game until Saturday afternoon, which I have something big planned in the game, so lets hope it works then.

    I did do a pingplotter, and it's still that one that is spiking up that high. Only one.

    Double XP means

    Double XP means...
    CapeRadio, Staying Logged in 24/7 for 3 days so I don't loose my server spot, if I do, I play on Pinnacle toons, and hoping by then my IP problem is fixed -.-
  16. Support Claim updated to show new information. Thanks all who helped so far
  17. Cleared the cache.

    First IP: 11 starts the "request time out" 9 hits 115 ms (highest there)
    Second IP: 11 starts the "Request time out" 9 hits 104ms (highest again)
    Third IP: 15 starts the "Request time out" 12 hits 174ms (highest one) Frankfurt1.Level13.net is the last phrase for 12.
    Fourth IP: 15 starts the "Request time out" 13 hits 173ms (highest one) Frankfurt1.level13.net is the last phrase.

    Guessing it's the "Frankfurt1" thing that's taking me down.

    Hm. It seems to have gotten worse. Same "server load" though.
    *Shrugs* I'll check it out tomorrow then.
    I guess I got this coming to me after 4 years of no problems
  19. I don't think it's me having Drive H: Alt.

    http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showf...;Main=13706222
    There is where the IPs are. I did the east coast, constant red.
    West coast is constant green.

    Guess we found my problem right? Now how do I describe it to my provider?
  20. NVidia is now working, thanks Texas.
  21. Ok, can anyone else find that threat with the Server IPs? I can't seem to find it, unless it's in a random forum (like Freedom Server Forums). If that's my problem, then I'll be contacting my provider for sure.
  22. Ok, updating driver for my NVIDIA now. The one reccomended. Got to the "Location to Save Files" and the one reccomended says "Unable to created the specified out folder!"

    My computer is royally messed up isn't it...

    Edit: Any suggestions?
  23. Don't know what half of this is.
    Brother plays on my computer when I'm at work, so I hope he didn't do anything today that could of changed it in anyway, or he's not going to breath tomorrow -.-

  25. Will do.
    Harddrive is about 2 months old, no overheating issues that I know of (3 fans attached to the sides for addition cooling)

    I'll update everything again.
