    One thing I have noticed specifically are the Mook hitmen. They seem to be hands down the worst mob I come across that will run for really no reason. Its pretty much a guarantee they the hitman will run halfway across the map, even if you just shoot them once and try to corner pull or something. Extremely frustrating.
    Mook Hitmen have definitely been extremely terribad in this respect for a LOOOOONG time.

    I see we like our Mercs builds to be fairly similar -- we both like to take personal attacks (I don't with every MM primary, but with Mercs I sure do, more dakka dakka!), we both think Invisibility on an MM is less than useless and we like Provoke.

    Interesting build, looks good in some ways. OMG, you took Serum, and slotted brawl Here is what I would do to... I'd drop Serum, I'd rather replace Dark Embrace with Charged Armor, I prefer its straight up SLE resists. I'd replace all the flying stuff, I find that enemy groups with lots of control tend to make MM's very pwnt fast, especially Malta. Combat Jumping + Acrobatics handles that nicely. Nothing more annoying then watching your MM get widdled away while you are helpless.

    Some neat stuff in there, worth integrating into my own bias's
    I fly in RV though! <_< Group Fly also can get your pets unstuck from Caltrops. That said, caltrops is rare redside; only seen in the rare KoA missions, Silver Mantis fights, and against my clones(? Haven't fought one yet.) Equalizer AoE web slows, too, but I got the power too late for those pests.

    yes (Capital letters!) Also, the Force of Nature accolade is nice to have on a trapper. Can only have two seeker drones up,though.

    It was ME that gave you the info! Not him. I made the thread HOURS earlier.

    *Cries at not getting 3 redname posts in his thread whereas this one has 3.*

    Your complaint is over 3 years old apart from this recent addition of masterminds blueside. How have you handled the morons spamming their auras and doing footstomps in the market all this time?
    Mega-owned. Applause. I laughed at this thread because the OP thought this was just a blueside "problem."

    Also of note is that FSAA + SSAO work together!

    Edit: .... why did I even post here?
  9. The_Coming_Storm
    Repeat thread is repeat. You should close this thread :P

    ALSO of note (as found out by yours truly) is that FSAA and SSAO now work together.
  10. The_Coming_Storm
    Get the 10.8 drivers that just came out.
  11. The_Coming_Storm
    Post results here.

    From release notes: ""FSAA" is a selectable option in City of Heroes / City of Heroes Going Rogue™"

    Edit: It seems that you can use FSAA with SSAO now. Yay
  12. The_Coming_Storm
    I'm a villain.
  13. The_Coming_Storm
    You can't really be a tankermind with a melee pet set... That is the help I'm giving you.

    If you are redside, you are a Destined One. If you go to Kalinda, she says you're on her list, and even if you start with Burke, by the time you get to Lord Recluse, you're caught up in the Destined One mythology whether you like it or not. Becoming a Rogue isn't going to change that. Only going Hero will. (And presumably if you are a Hero and turn Villain, you will end up being a Destined One as well)

    Of course, you don't have to BELIEVE all that stuff about being the Destined One. And you don't have to BELIEVE you're following the orders of Lord Recluse and his cronies either. You can believe you're just doing what they're asking because you're feeling generous.
    Being a destined one does not bind you to the will of Arachnos.
  16. The_Coming_Storm
    Uhhh, your villains DON'T work for Arachnos. They just sometimes accept jobs from them.

    Redside is the way to be. *Flex*

    My account was accidently permabanned when I was away a couple years ago. They gave me a free month

    Why fight Carnies?

    They are fun to fight, especially the illusionists whom you have to time your attacks against.
  22. The_Coming_Storm
    I just want to say I have a Mobility 5850 and am using 10.7 at the moment. In the UNiGiNE Heaven demo, my FPS goes like this, all settings equal: DX11 << OGL (4.0) < DX10

    DX11 with tesselation runs fine, but OGL with tesselation locks up my system after only a couple frames (but there is SOME rendering at least). =/ I'm thinking my card may be affected by 10.7's OGL quirks.
  23. The_Coming_Storm
    More than rarely. Happens so often, I got tired of doing tips until it is fixed.
  24. The_Coming_Storm
    <_< Ok
  25. The_Coming_Storm
    What bug?
