Ok what if they suspended people from making toons on Freedom and Virtue for a couple months. I mean damn...theyre filled! Seriously there really wouldnt be any harm or fowl, and the other servers do need a boost

Well I think y'all are getting out of hand. Were just talkin, and Im not trolling. This forum needs the patience of the guy sweeping cigs at Disneyworld. Sound strange?! Ill explain.

Disneyworld in Orlando hires people dirt cheap. I mean not even $10 an hour. They do house and feed alot of students though. The point is for such meanial pay the cig sweeper has incredible patience. He's asked on average 63 times a day where Space Mountain is. Every single time he answers politely with the directions. Thats not a patience thru great character, but simply knowing each person really doesnt know.

I didnt know this topic was beat to death. So be like the cigarette sweeper at Disneyworld kids!

What about players willfully being able to switch their toons for free. Server to server whenever you wish. Yes that would mean the game couldnt make any money in that area anymore, but the increased volume of players activity would make up for it. Might be technically nightmarish, but it might not either. SGs would stay where they are though. Idk. Just thought Id share.

Did you see what happened to the NCSoft store when they released the Magic Booster and everyone tried to get it all at once?

Or how bout this weekend when it crashed?

Now imagine what would happen during the next 2xp weekend when everyone starts transfering their characters at the same time.

When the system crashes, and it will, what will those people do when their characters are lost/corrupted?

Do you think those people will be happy if they have to get their characters replaced with a back up and all the special IO's purps whatever they had on the character are missing because that older version didn't have them.

Oh and what happens when Superdude goes to another server for a few hours and when he returns to his preferred server his name (which he had for 3 years) has been taken by another player?

[/ QUOTE ]

As for the names thats easy to fix. Whoever has a name used by others has a # put at the end of their name depending in what order their toon was made. No way to get around SGs though.

There are too many servers. Im willling to bet if they released server population numbers youd see theres room for improvement. I think the switching servers at will is a good idea, and would make for some interesting situations.

Like a "Whose the most powerful SG on all servers Contest" or etc... Right now two servers are overcrowded and the rest wasted.

Just wanted to admit Im wrong. Im playing an Ar/Dev right now, and hes truly an engine of death. Didnt know the game crippled up the Ice Immob either. Thanks for the input y'all.

So what youre all basically saying is youre against the idea.

Sorry I spazzed. Listen ive built many a team, and there really is a desolation prob. Today on Protector there were a total of 12 yes 12 toons lvl 16-25 in total. So when I see servers that are even worse I came up w/the suggestion.

What about players willfully being able to switch their toons for free. Server to server whenever you wish. Yes that would mean the game couldnt make any money in that area anymore, but the increased volume of players activity would make up for it. Might be technically nightmarish, but it might not either. SGs would stay where they are though. Idk. Just thought Id share.

Wow. I make a suggestion and recieve nothing but bile laced smarmy response. How underwhelming. Hey Im willing to bet you all go nuts whenever someone you see has just got a haircut. Ripe pickings in the land of cool huh?

Right now Virtue and Freedom are the only flush servers. If there were only six servers or five then the "quiet" would be maintained minus the desolation factor. Seriously today on Protector nobody was on Perigrine Island. Ghost town.

I understand y'all have 20 50's and can speak COH abbreviation like a military linguistics operator, but being a spazzy tool is hard to hide. Chill out folks. The idea has some merit, and I wouldnt be surprised theres always a long whine fest whenever someone suggests something out of the norm.

We have too many servers for COH/V. Drop em to 5 so theres a real population in each one rather than 2 or 3.

Well I just made an Archer Blaster, and the damage is impressive. Maybe I mispoke I meant incredibly impressive. I shoulda called my toon John Deer cause Im mowing thru Fallen Buckshots like a fat kid on a rusty pogo stick.

Still wont say Ice takes 2nd place to anything. After all being held/immobilized/whatever you call it is sure $. 1 out of 3 something will effect you and your attack rate is slowed or stopped altogether.

Ok I admit that was campy, and I have a 16th lvl Ice Blaster not a 15th.

Ok this is outright strange.......if your immobilized at least 1 attk out of 3 YOU LOSE! How is my math wrong?! What faulty update took away the advantage of doing damage to opponents that cant fight back?!

Right now I have a lvl 15 Ice Blaster on Protector. (I know dont laugh with AE now sometimes I cant log onto Freedom). Anybody with any type of 15 lvl toon...

....step up and be served a cup of shut the h*** up! Who wants some?

Sorry kids I dont have a 50 lvl Ice Blaster, but am working on it.

Again my argument is threefold, Slow, Immobilize, and alot of both. Fire does have impact damage, BUT if youre slowed or held the ice blaster will surpass whatever damage margin a fire blaster has. I.e. being hit 3 times to 2 times Id go with the one that connects more.

A Tank huh? You dont ever want to fight my future PvP Ice Blaster cause Ill never get close to you to hit me. Youd be sniper candy.

No. If I said Spawn was the stupidest suprhero that ever was that would be trollin. This is just stating the obvious, and is the most important conversatio in the PvP forum.

Ok Ill concede to the Ice Ice Corrupter, but compared to the ice ice blaster thats like saying one twins better looking than the other.

Ok Mr Fire Blaster. What do fire blasters have that an ice blaster cant answer and with a better power?

Yeah I heard the rumors about SR, but when the ice blaster is slotted with accys the SR will be hit. As soon as the Elude wears off of course, but that just means a delay in your buttwhippin.

Ok Rad healers when your immobilized your healing is moot! You are an ice cube waiting to be crushed, and nothing more. All Scrappers, and even blaster gotta get thru a 3 layered attack of damage, slowness, and immobilization. Not even counting if youve an elusive Ice Blaster. Its not fun just getting shot down from arfar. Fire blasters LOL @ them all. The most overrated blaster is the fire blaster.

Im simple, but right. I wasted 50 lvls playing a Broadsword Invulnerablity, and was blaster candy. What can really give a correctly built ice blaster trouble in PvP/ One answer - another Ice Blaster!

Any criticisms are appreciated. My intent with this build is an evasive durable blaster. Howd I do? Yeah I took Newbphase but Im curious about it (never had it), and it fits with my concept. Right now Jesterfreeze is at 16th lvl so its not too late to switch gears if necessary.

build it on mids and post it

[/ QUOTE ]

What do you mean "build it on mids"?

[ QUOTE ]
If i'm reading this right you only have 2 slots in each or your attack powers, why? And even with enhanced accuracy your gonna want accuracy on all your attacks. Just my 2 cents
Noticed you have 4 slots of super jump, thats kinda wasteful too.

[/ QUOTE ]

If I have Invincibility and Enhanced Accuracy maxed and full of To Hit Buff IOs wouldnt that be enough? 4 for Super Leap as that would be my only travel power.

Ive posted a couple times my angst of getting a toon to 50, and it not being worth 1 damn in PvP. My latest idea is a SS Inv Tanker. There are alot of options with Invulnerability, and Super Strength is good in PvP they say. Whats the best way to build him?

There are 67 enhancement bonus slots given out total by lvl 50....

Invincible 5
Enhance Accuracy 5 epic
Conserve Power 5 epic, and necessary as Inv is an endo hog.
Stamina 5
Health 4
7 SS Attk powers 2 each = 14 Slot them with all damage cause Invin and Enh Accy will enable me to hit...in theory.
Dull Pain 3
Rage 4
Temp Inv 4
Unyield 2
Res phys/Elmnt/Enrgy 3 each = 12
Super Leap 4

Yes people this is the miracle PvP build the worlds been looking for! LOL! Please any advice is wanted, and maybe necessary to prevent another tragedy

There isn't really a king AT in CoH. Almost all AT's can perform well. It's just that there is a very select number of builds in each AT that are good, and the rest suck. For some AT's, it's as limited as literally like 1 or 2 viable builds.

So yes, some blaster builds are excellent. Psy/devices is one of the best ones.

[/ QUOTE ]

THANK GOD! I was worried I was wasting my time again.

Used to be at least. Yes Im newb to PvP, and wasted my time geting a Broadsword Invulnerabilty scrapper to 50, and then got stomped by a tanker.

In answer to this I made "Gordbuster" a Mental Blast Devices blaster. Hes lvl 11 now. Should I have made a Blaster? Is Super Reflex Scrapper/Stalkers the only way to assuredly win? Yes Im begging for any intel so I dont waste my time again.

Thanks man. Appreciate it.

Ugh. I just got my BS Inv toon to 50 (my first) went into Recluses Victory, and got stomped like a narc in a biker rally. I found out PvP is all about the sets.

So if the sets make such a difference does it matter what build you have really?

[ QUOTE ]
Fire/SS Tank?

[/ QUOTE ]

You mean Fire Armor Super Strength Tank?

So far theres a vote for Broadsword/Invulnerability, and a Fire Ice Tanker...
