    Well I sure won't be going outside. Too bright out there.

    I read that PIPA (the Senate version) is still alive and well but last night on the news it sounded like Grassley is slowly backing away from it.

    And just like any good movie monster I think Jason/Freddie/Michael will return. Next time they might be more clever to slip it into a large bill and pass it late on a Friday.

    So its 36 - 8 +2 and othere vet rewards
    Before Freedom we got 12 per server not 8.

    Before the change of management/ownership 2 years ago we had 12 or 8 depending on whether we had both CoH and CoV or not but for the time prior to Freedom we had 12 per server plus any earned bonus slots per year used with a maximum per server of 36.

    P.S. I don't envy you trying to do the math. I'd never figure out how many I should have if I went premium.
  7. I am giving this my seal of approval.
  8. I never thought it wouldn't work so I haven't paid attention. I'll keep it in mind the next time I craft a purple on a character with the discount selected but I've pretty well used them up as I moved my 50s to getting the Vanguard and Cimeroa day jobs and accolades.

    I almost always slot like you do.

    The only exception I have is a stone/stone brute which I wanted to boost his run speed so in addition to the Perf Shifter + End I also slotted the Perf Shifter: End Mod.

    When you go Premium everything locks until you unlock them because they don't assume which of your slots or characters you are going to choose to use.

    Those 26 unlocks can unlock an existing character or any open slot on any server.

    *** the above may or may not have been sarcastic. It was unless that offends you in which case I apologize for any offense you may or may not have taken that is until I run this past an attorney and get it all written up contractually.
  12. Any ETA on the super packs? I love opening them on beta but live would be better.
  13. I feel your pain. Deconstructing or even just sidegrading the incarnate powers would be nice especially when new ones are added.

    Come on! Poke the bear!

    Speaking of the new Dark Astoria content, will we lose the current Dark Astoria when the new arrives?

    I had not heard of that law before but I had been painfully aware of the reality the law reflects and as you say all the threads we have demonstrating it.

    As for the cartoon elf, I did find myself wondering initially if they were cross referencing another NC Soft game instead of City of Heroes.
  18. I use 8 to get rare Incarnate salvage or turn them into Incarnate threads as needed.

    When I get all my Incarnate powers maxed then I might consider the costume pieces.

    I know all of these except the villagers sacrifice the policeman. What story is that from?
  21. I am having a lot more fun. I can barely stop playing my incarnate brute.

    And when I do play another character I am having more fun with many of the non-incarnate enhancements to the game.

    So I think it was great because it gave me something to do with my 50s so when I play my non-50s I don't think "well, this is great. In X levels this one will hit 50, then what?"

    Naysayers, go away.
    Recluse? I killed him before I was an incarnate. Well I guess if it isn't going to be me it can be him but he better know I killed him once and I can do it again.
  23. I think I need a refresher overview of what the superpacks are going to be.

    Work is giving me brain damage.

  25. I am feeling very silly now because when I was asked what my level was I also replied "50".

    But I still was invited and joined in on the trial and was only asked if I had ever run it before and I told the asker I had not done any except in beta last year.

    I have all but one incarnate power and upgraded 2 of them. Is there some way to see our 50+ level for ourselves?
