    Can we please just toggle the Drama off?

    It comes in cycles. We were drama-less here for a while. We were overdue.
  2. The choice is yours, really. I am of the opinion that you will do whatever it is that you want nomatter what the outcome of this thread.

    Personally, I don't have a problem with you. You actually pronounced my name right . I know how to ignore stuff that i want to ignore, and run with the things that interest me. So, to me it is a non issue.

    Do what YOU feel is best for YOU.

    Report all Farms

    OP. Please explain what you consider to be a farm. Is it an outdoor map with a bunch of critters? If that's the case you have a lot of reporting to do.

    I am able to leave combustion on auto whenever I feel like it to build Domination on live. I could not do that on test.

    There's something missing from this equation.

    Combustion's base endurance to recharge ratio only went up by ~0.07 points of endurance a second (Old: ~0.86/s, ~0.93/s).

    Even if we assume both are 3-slotted for recharge, the difference in endurance per second is ~0.144 (Old: ~1.733/s, New: ~1.877/s).

    Damage per endurance has gone down, but only by ~0.26 points.

    Edit: Almost all the powers changed now work this way, where IF they increased in endurance per second or decreased in damage per endurance, it's such a tiny amount that it can't be causing as much a problem as people say it is.

    What appears to be the problem in most people's cases (from what I've read on the boards) is that they have too many +Recharge sources (possibly left over from trying to bolster "Old Domination") that is artificially creating "end hog" issues by making powers that are now damage-heavy and endurance-heavy recharge much faster without anything to supplement the cost, such as slotting EndRedux or slotting for +Recovery bonuses.

    What is missing from the equation is the end that I am burning on everything else. On live, I cycle it on and leave it. On test, I have to turn it off to keep from bottoming out faster. My build has not a single IO of any type slotted. I ran my test mission solo each time. No external buffs whatsoever.

    I have stamina. I run one toggle. I am not a permadom. I just ran the same mission on live that I did on test last night and did not run out of end once. I am able to leave combustion on auto whenever I feel like it to build Domination on live. I could not do that on test. The big thing for me is on test, I am running out of end before I build domination. I am not having that problem on live. Same build, same challenge level, same mission.

    My Ice/Fire was running out of end from spawn to spawn. I burned through end even after popping domination. I tested on a lvl 50 SO build.

    The Dom Changes have been posted. I think I am gonna change My Dom's name from Hella Cold to End Hog.

    Wow
  9. I did not want to ask for a nerf, as nerfherding is against the forum rules. This would be a buff, which it is why it is in the suggestions forum.

    Would it truly be that bad if villains got two more merits?

    Reported on and acknowledged on 12-17-08. That is a lot of time for heroes to be taking advantage of a broken game mechanic. It is time to fix it, or equalize it.
  10. No, I just want 2 merits added to the Titan. If the removing merits from the Flier is proving too problematic, just add 2 to the Titan. It has taken six months already.

    I've done most hero TF's. Most of them take so long because people aren't efficient.
  11. I know it's a bug. I reported it to Synapse months ago. If the STF is already plus 5, there is no reason in the worlds that merits should not be given to the Titan. Smart teams go for +9 that is by killing the flier twice.


    It needs to be addressed. Villains are already at a disadvantage merit wise.
  12. Since you refuse to remove the merits from the Flier in the STF, I think it is time you set things right.

    since I play this game for rewards and enjoyment of smashing things that all my optimized toons are built for.

    And since I enjoy smashing things that my optimized toons are built for, isn't that, in essence to what Castle said, not farming? :O

  14. Can you edit the SG message of the day? If you can, leave him a message. When I ended up with SL on an SG and a VG that I did not own, that's what I did. I changed the MOTD, and the founder and I hooked up for the transfer of power.

    When will the witch hunting end? Soon any mission that has an outdoor map will be called a farm/exploit.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Ah, yes. The ever "valid" slippery-slope argument.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    It's a perception thing. People are starting to see the trees for the Forrest. As soon as they see a city map and one enemy type, they assume it is a farm. Never mind if the map and critters are part of the story. Farming is an action. Any non timed mission can be farmed. The OP probably hit a city map with freaks and labeled it a farm. Well, it is if you do it over and over again. If you do the objectives and leave, it is not.

    That's all I am saying.

    with NO mini map it was impossible to find the downed team mate to attempt rez

    Well, you could click on the person's name in the team window and hit follow. I hate maps without a map.

    On the subject of how it was handled I think we are both in agreement. I think positron wanted to use fear to get people to put on the breaks and it backfired.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Well, it did work to a certain degree. It scared some people right out of AE, and others right out of the game.

    Sorry I missed this one. OP, you are right, it's broken. It's been broken since release, with no hope of it being fixed. What has happened is that a few players have been doing it so long, that the things that you call broken are now the only challenge of the thing.

    At this point, I hope the only thing that they fix is the stupid Tech. Hell, I want to see the 54's come back. Maybe then it will get the merits that it deserves.

    PS, is the Flier Still giving merits in the STF?

    Bad Synapse! That was supposed to be fixed months ago
