After my first experience with the Purple AV; it was a joy to get Ruladek twice in a row on my two main badgehunters. And so quickly done even at less-than-optimal choices for the redside run (in my case, I lacked the HVAS and my MM was without fitness during that one).

And speaking of redside runs; in my time collecting bases I have a small but very functional base which I'm editing specifically for CoP runs. The raid-tp is only one room shy of the entrance and the control room leads off the teleport room. The highest character I have in the group is only 25 though so if anyone has some free 35-50 characters; you're more than welcome to join and make use of it.

Hehe, it's really me. I could prove it with another ugly picture of me holding Bob hostage but Bob's staying at Kallandra's atm.

Thankfully nothing's missing yet. Obviously the hack was on my master and forced it to lockout. Just in time for Issue 19's launch (with two hours to spare).

Actually it's quite sensible in the long-run. Perma-ban and it stops ANYTHING being accessed. The longer they have access, the more they can take from you. Otherwise it means yet more questions on what you had before, more verification, etc. Nothing of mine appears to be missing (yet), all characters there as I remember them. Looks like they were trolling the PlayNC website with false logins.

Exactly right. Some of the best old farms can be re-created through the AE. Family, Behemouths, BM Warriors and repeatable by default. It's a perfect farming tool.

Not till PSN gets a client and a keyboard... and a mouse.

Not surprising, given the persistence of some people. I recently had an attack on my Gmail which made me change the password for that as well. What's more surprising is that it's taken six years for them to get this far when I've had the same password.

It still happens with more NCSoft accounts after a quick google search revealed dozens of similar threads for Lineage II, Aion and Guild Wars. I'm just glad they caught it for me so quickly. I had several very long and decidedly freaky passwords so I'm only surprised it eventually hit me especially with the same one for six years.


The main reason I posted this is because CS tend to get more bad press when things go wrong than good press when they go right. Jerom has replied to me again about escalating it should anything be missing when I check my character list. Hopefully it will just be a thanks when the game comes back with Issue 19.

Ach, don't remind me. My first instance of fighting Scrapyard we chased him around Sharkhead. I mean he ran from the middle of the buildings south of the PD/monkey arena all the way to the far end of the docks at the NE tip. We eventually managed to lock him into a smaller loop round one of the towers and defeat him but it just gets irritating the more often it happens.

I attacked a Cimeroran Minotaur E-B on my troller and he ran on the first hold. No other mob around him, he was solo and he ran like a chicken on the partial castle map (with all those lovely canyon drops). After ten minutes of widdling his health down he took one final pot-shot and I dropped the mission soon after with a 'F-this-S' and I've ignored the blueside Cimeroran missions since.

I loathe and despite 'Runners', every last one of them.

Just like real life then.

None. The build that went without won't have to change a thing, I'll just slot generic IOs into them as a 'bonus' to their 'working' build.

Perfect excuse to get a popcorn emote in-game.

And since there's a fixed amount of xp from 1 to 50 it's easy enough to draw a few lines (divive the cumulative by 3, 4 or 5) so that you can only earn a set amount within 24 hours.

And now I remember why - I used right-click to run as administrator instead of setting it as a compatibility default. It is now working as before so just a brain-fart on my part >.<

Forum access works, thank you

I did a cookie-cleanout last night when I did the reset my password, just to be sure. No change yet but I'll try again tonight.

Given that I just counted I have 101 characters on Union alone plus another 50-odd spread around EU and US severs; yes, no and sort-of.

Yes - a lot of characters I made went for my own style of even-con building: Powers up to level 10, 12 and 14 for travel power and then 16-20 fitness leaving the rest of the choices for whatever I wanted. A lot of them did this becuase I wanted them to be playable without downtime and it works quite well for my playstyle of -1 -> 0 con enemies. I've already respec'd several that I don't play as often. This includes my grav/psi dom who'd had fitness respec'd in.

No - Some characters I have are either so low they have yet to choose fitness, are a regen/willpower or are my concept characters who went without like my empath and my MM's main build as well as my all-natural archer who doesn't have a travel power either. They'll get it as a bonus and keep their 'classic' builds.

Sort-of - My main badger has been built to play in a way I've got used to and has set bonuses which are right for me. So I'll just be respecing his main build to swap pool-fitness for the medicine pool so it'll give him a rez and healing power and either aid-self or stimulant so he can get peeps out of a mez Dispersion Bubble doesn't protect against.


Since I have so many I'll only be respeccing them as and when I get round to them. I'm actually playing my BS/SR scrapper who's had hurdle respec'd out ready for i19.

Confirmed personally that ANY TOON WITHOUT ANY FITNESS POWER WILL RECIEVE THE INHERENT FITNESS AUTOMATICALLY WITH I19. My MM was my first playtest of i19 during closed beta and she got it no problem at 50 just by logging in.

And taking a page from Forbin's book; that £2 sale is 'Used - Very Good' which means you're just buying for the comics. There is a £2.99 new edition not that far below it though. Amusingly the Collector's CoV is on there for £6.16
