    Then again, I'm not sure how much 'help' a human-only PB would be, aside from shooting energy beams out of her eyes, hehe...

    guess I'll wrangle that goat* when I get to it

    I've some RL stuffs that is keeping my in-game time in check currently, though I 'should' have the base done* by the time the Chalet opens.

    *a base is never really done IMHO, but you know what I mean

    However, somewhere in this thread Black Pebble confirmed the price for this pack (in US$) is the same as the Super Boosters.

    Edit:

    BP's post: http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showt...23#post3275423 Has the price in all 3 currencies and match the 'super' booster prices.

    Thank you for the link...

    In that case, while for me, personally, the $9.99 is 'worth' what I'll be getting in the origins pack, I feel if the devs make a distinction between packs (super booster; booster; mini booster -the jump pack thingy)
    that distinction should consistently reflect in their pricing of them.

    I hadn't read BP's post, hence I myself posted in ignorance...my bad <.<

    actually they aren't, at least not on my end: super boosters go for € 8.99, and regular boosters for € 5.99

    I've actually begun with that, using one of the Workshops right off the entrance, which I considered 'claiming' as Azure Albedo's 'shop and loft'
    (salvage storage and worktables on bottom, apartment on top level)

    But yes, the motivation to start marketeering as a sideline is there <.<

    TR
  7. well,

    looks like I'll be turning into a flipper by default, considering all the marketeering I need to do to get the salvage for building our new shinies.

    I guess before long, I'll be tossing Inf. into the pit with the rest of you ;p

    Well, IMHO the party pack is the only pack one can compare this origin pack to, and I agree it is a step up from that, and also worth the price.

    As to the other 'super' boosters, they are a similar, yet different thing (note the 'super' there).

    I mean come on people, you can't compare a Buick GN to a Chevy Monte Carlo, even if they both happen to be G-bodies.

    Marvelous!

    I'll check what salvage I need for it, and will get it taken care of.

    I think there are 3 SG badges we still need atm, will check and make sure next time I'm on, then post here.

    That being said, I probably wont be around until late tuesday/early wednesday.

    Also, as more rooms are taking shape, if anyone has any requests, now's the time to let me know.

  10. Thanks for all the feedback, guys...

    Bonfire is indeed quite handy, I picked it up at 41 ;p
    as for 'something else'...I'd considered Maneuvers, actually, but i don't know if that's worth it, on a blaster.

    Or are you doing something more along the lines as spot spawn, aim, buildup, fire off rain of arrows, kill things as they get to you using /fire ?

    If its the first Burn, if the second hotfeet.
    It's more like the second scenario

    yes, I have the prereq's...RotP was my choice for lvl 49, actually, though I suppose I could take it now, and choose between HF and Burn at 49 ;p

  11. Hi,

    so, I have a Arch/Fire/Flame Blaster a few missions away from level 47 and can't seem to make up my mind on which of those powers to take.

    Both have their advantages, but regardless of which i choose, it would be a highly situational power. Quite frankly, if the game wouldn't force me to take a power at 47, i wouldn't take either of them...i kinda just want to know which is the lesser of two evils ;p

    thanks for any insight,

    back in the day? I still do, now and then <.<

    to the OP:
    Kat/Regen was my first 50 and is still one of my favorite scrappers to play.

    I agree with Arkadian on Flashing Steel...since you're planning on Lotus Drops anyway, you can respec out of it, then; but if you solo exclusively from 1 to 50, i'd pick that little gem up.

    Like Banshee said, Hanging Lamps are the way to go, to float downward. With the lightstairs, though, once you have your topmost one placed, you can stack down and away from the fluorescent lamps themselves.

    I don't have the link handy, but -stacker, whom to my knowledge is the original 'creator' of the lightstairs, has a nifty how-to video on youtube somewhere.

    WiP Screenies

    A few days ago, I was given the privilege to design/build the Crazy 88's base on Virtue; knowing that a lot of you love screenies, I decided to post some, as I work on this mammoth project.

    Here's the first batch: Entry, 2 Workshops, and a Porter room, these are all still WiP's, but I wanted to share anyway ;p

























    More to come soon,

    TR


    Edit: Oh my! I guess I'll have to resize the next batch...my bad

    So, I've started building, and for those of you interested in what 'theme' i'll be using, it's simple...Money

    I initially wanted to plan out the entire base, then start building according to that plan; but, as happens so often, the best laid plan is only good until the first shot is fired (or in my case, the first desk is stacked).

    This Base isn't one of my RP Bases, which need to adhere to certain guidelines in overall design, instead, each room can -and will- in its own unique way, be dedicated to one thing: Inf (and/or the destruction thereof, as in the Inf Incinerator Pit i'm currently building in one of the workshops).

    Nethergoat has volunteered to post screenies of my progress as I...
    well... progress

    So, all that said, thanks for letting me do this, and I hope y'all will like it, when it's done.

  17. I generally stack a floorsafe to the desired height, then plop a floortile on it, and make the floor with my desks of choice

    booster packs

    Thank you! yes,that works...

    i will have to make note of that workaround ;p
  19. TeutonicRogue

    booster packs

    just double checked, even clicked on the 'buy now' to be taken to the item, but the US version link is NOT to be had with the packs...

    which sucks, cause i need a few for my other two accounts and of course the mutant pack

    booster packs

    Hi,

    i initially wanted to post this in the player questions forum, but since a number of you have US accounts as well, i figured i'd ask here:

    Booster Packs...the last one i bought was the martial arts one, and i seem to recall an 'us version also available' notification under the 'buy now' button

    looking at the items in the NCSoft store now, this notification no longer appears with the pack (though still with all the versions of the game)

    can the european booster packs be used on US accounts? or is there some way that takes me to the US NCSoft store? i always get automatically redirected to the Euro-store :/

    thanks for any info
  21. just crashed out of the tailor screen in steel canyon Icon, wanted to get the magic bolero on my character, but the option was missing (yes, i have the magic pack).

    I figured i look under robes and or unique tops, see if it was moved, when i got a error message something about /piggs shared files robe_warrior...something, and to run patcher again...


    which i am doing atm... just wondered if this happened to others as well?

    Thanks!

    I used tall..uh office? or standing? lamps...can't recall the exact name atm, most are set to 'off' with like 3 or 4 on each side being 'on', for a soft lighting effect.

    Progress Logs

    hi, so i haven't posted pics for a few days, so here's where i am with the base...

    workshop is getting finalized (still), and i finished CiC (the base's control bunker).

    my next project is the large TP room, this has remained unchanged since i built it in i13, i like it as is, but it needs 'something' still, i think...not much...

    actually, i'll just post the question here ;p does the TP room look too simple? or should i leave it as is?















    i probably wont get any building done this week, due to time constraints, but i'll throw some more screenies up, as i get things done.
  24. older shows that haven't been mentioned yet, but i found pretty good:

    As Time goes by

    Are you being served?
