    Of course, I was never disputing that one was better than the other. Just pointing out that PvP option does exist for those that don't know about it.

    It sure is looking that way, should definitely bring back a lot of players that left just for that reason. But, we'll see.

    Zone PvP

    Well, according to their pocasts, they say they're going to be fixing the changes they made with I13, so that should be interesting to look forward to, for PvP zones anyways.

    As always though, for those that prefer Arena fights, there is a setting you can change that turns off Diminishing Returns, just a little FYI for those that didn't know.

Finally, each pseudopet applies a damage buff to each player (up to 255) within a certain radius of the pseudopet.

    Net result is that it's very hard to predict how many buff icons each player will get.
    Yeah, after doing another test, I found this out, which is why I deleted the original post.
  9. It's pretty active during the evenings, and even more so on the weekends. Oh and, welcome back
  10. Confirmed, I am an idiot. You were right, the numbered stack portion of the power is applied in proximity to the enemies, however the Kinetic Transfer portion is not, which is what confused me

Also, your teammate is a little further back than you are, so I would assume one of the hellions on the side were farther than 25 feet from him.

    That's my take on it.
    Fulcrum Shift works like Siphon Power, it applies the damage buff around the person activating the power, not around the enemies.

    Thanks, we knew it wouldn't work out for everyone. We just went with what was most voted.

    Nah, I always had my own SG. Can't say that I've ran any all MM LRSF. You may have seen me either around the market, or in a PvP zone.

Basically looking for one of these old established groups who kinda remembers me or if anyone has seen the members or if everyone has dropped off the face of the planet.. :P
    Hm, your name seems familar, not sure if I ever saw you around or not. I think some of those SG are still around, though I'm not apart of any of em. I'm sure you could spam the global channels, see if you can get an invite to em
  20. Alright, I should be working more into my schedule, so I should be able to get more hours in with the trials and get more people their lovely Empyrean and Astral merits

    And thanks for leading, Armored Nictus!
    I love it!

    And I'm always happy to help everyone.
  22. Alrighty.

    From what I've asked around, and on this forum, it looks like Monday will be the official day for the Mastermind Event. Mastermind Mondays! The official start of the event will be next week, on October 3rd. When we get closer towards Monday, I'll start a new forum post for the event with a schedule for that week.

    All hail the Masterminds!
  23. So far, it's looking like Monday is going to be the day we're gonna do it on. If so, we'll have to do it sometime in the evening. I'm thinking, perhaps around 4pm PST, hoping that will work out for most people.

    Id be more interested in a Wed night, My Mondays and Tuesdays start very early in the morning. I'm sure we will not come to a common day that works for everyone, so I am open to what ever. Might have to prevent my face from sleeping on the keyboard tho

    Yeah, the day will be whichever one has the most interest. I don't think we'll be starting too late in the day, so you shouldn't have too much trouble I think.
