  1. It was love at first level with Lift and Stone Spears. Cast them on two different enemies and see both just fly into the air . Then I got Propel at 6 for superbigfunhappyjoytime, and a reliable boulder to hurl at 10 . At 41 I will be able to throw up on enemies too. I haven't had this much fun in a while.

    Yes, the developers want a smaller amount of players who understand what a Beta is, and are going to provide useful feedback and testing, feedback and testing that Open Beta's generally do not provide.

    However, there still is the issue of players on the test server that have only transferred one or two characters in, or only have one or two characters created on the test server.

    Importing an existing server's character list allows the developers to have a wider range of avatars available for testers to use, without requiring those testers to sit at the transfer queu and manually select which characters to transfer over. It's a LOT QUICKER for the developers to do the import themselves.


    Open betas do provide useful feedback and testing. I don't like your elitism when it comes to betas.
  5. the "heroes" name is a stigma for people in tights. That is what people think this game solely is. Villains ftw, would be better if they rebranded to CoV.
  6. I think Propel Blast powerset will be next. Several, more specific, but still random, propel-like powers in a set.
  7. Y'all are traitors. Red is better, you are really missing out on quality.

    Yes

    Agreed. Wow. Just wow.
  10. It was good... until you got to the whole 'benefits for people in SG/VGs' part. I say SGs and VGs should have no impact on gameplay.... hooray for i17 getting rid of the requirement for a super-computer for SMSF.
  11. PVPIO bonuses that are marked PVP-only do NOT stack with 5x of the same PVE bonus, as well.

    Good one.

    I'm glad i'm not going to PAX, I'd be throwing shoes. :P

    My question would have to be: "Why do you let your bias for heroes affect game content and mechanics?"

    Also: "Is there any new content for villains forth coming that ISN'T also hero content? and why has it taken this long?"

    Though the answer to my first question will probably be enough to answer my second.
    How are devs biased for heroes? They are absolutely not.
  13. Completing my PVP hold set for my.... Nin/Poison MM! You might ask "Why not the purpley?" I respond, "Moar AoE defense, Max end, and recharge rate at all levels!"
  14. Do NOT slot accuracy or damage in the power. those are broken and unfixable atm. The power pulls enhancement values from the pet being blown up, though.

    2. They AUTOMATICALLY get hamidon aggo

    3. Phantom Army are a MM pet

    gg
    I don't know if MM pets and Control pets are treated the same way with hami aggro. I never claimed that PA was a MM power, so please, stop trying to make me appear stupid. It was not nice.

    And, you know, the whole human interaction thing? :P *Shakes fists at nooby MMs (Ones who buff only their pets) who are a disgrace to my kind*

    Proof.

    Not to say that they didn't raid without Justice people. But their success rate jumped and their drama dropped after a few of us went over and taught them how we do it here.

    Justice has been hammering Hamidon since shortly after he first made his appearance. And we were one of the first if not THE first to take down his new I9 incarnation.
    I think what I read might have only been concerning villain hami raids, in hindsight. Meep. *shy-face*
  18. You only "need" taunt if you are playing an Energy Aura brute. Taunt auras work fine enough
  19. Sharing and caring, it can be fun. I'll give you some when you have none. There's nothing more important under the sun than sharing and caring, it can be fun.

    That commercial has been in my head for years.

    Also. No bonus drop rate from more players... same drop rate per mob, just more mobs.
    However, there IS bonus inf and exp... but I'm not sure if that is only with actual physical players or not.

    Now, back to the OP... congrats on "leading" your 1st hamidon raid!

    I would also like to take this opportunity to open discussion on something that happened during that raid. LSK repeatedly instructed people to dismiss Phantom Army. Both myself and a few others, continuously told LSK and the rest of the Hive that there is nothing wrong with having Phantom Army out at a raid.

    LSK then said in request (and i quote):

    [Request] Sir Hell: TURN OFF PHANTOM ARMY
    [Request] Sir Hell: THEY STEAL AGGRO FROM ME

    Personally I am of the belief that if you are the Lead Hamidon Aggro Tank and you have your taunt slotted, and you know how to use it and you use it, then Phantom Army will never steal aggro from you.

    I welcome discussion on the issue.
    I think pets in melee range automatically get hami aggro? Dunno, people are always QQing about MM pets and hami aggro for some reason.

    Also, I made a bad mistake in saying what I did. I meant lesser as in "less-populated" as I read that every server besides Virtue and Freedom has trouble with Hami raids due to population issues.

    I apologize. *Logs onto his Ninja MM and /em bows and /petsayall <e bow>s*
