Quote:It was a mental hurdle for me.I found nothing confusing about choosing between Atlas and Galaxy when I created my first character (CoV was a few months away from release at this point). "Oh, I can choose one of these two cities as my starting place. Cool." Not really a big mental hurdle.

Quote:The entire zone is not being revamped. It's being eliminated. It will exist in game as a co-op "tutorial" area, as I gather.Why would they get rid of a zone in favor of it making it only be a tutorial area? I thought it was just going to be a low level co-op zone with a tutorial in it. Not that it would completely disappear. Seems kinda silly to completely get rid of it when they are revamping it. Why revamp it only to use it for tutorial when you could get so many other uses out of it?
What happens to all those explore badges and the explore accolade? The history plagues etc. Id figure they would just destroy every part of the zone for the most part but leave some very much destroyed structures intact for those badge locations. -
Quote:It's an epically brilliant ideaHow about they just call off the whole epically bad idea of destroying this zone completely? No? Didn't think so.
- streamlining the starting low-level area to one zone ala Rogue Isles/Praetoria. Makes a lot more sense than giving new players (and when I say new I don't mean a new toon a veteran player is rolling) a confusing choice of where to start.

Quote:No, you meant I'm rightAs I understand it, this is wrong according to Zwillinger: http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showp...&postcount=511
Which corresponds to the part where I said:
And this part:
Quote:however you will be able to access an "Echo of Galaxy City" through Ouroboros, where you will be able to seek badges and congregate.

Disintegration will continue to affect you even if you run away from Anti-Matter. You need to be constantly healed since the very last tick of damage from Disintegration will hit you for - IIRC - 80% of your total hit points (not how much you have left, but what your max health hit points are.)
-
Galaxy City, as I understand it, won't be a zone in the game anymore. Therefore you can't teleport or access it. It will be gone.
The only place I imagine you could "finagle" a teleport to Galaxy City would be Ouroboros.
/kills dream -
It's a single target attack. Some people disintegrate faster than others.

Congratulations on making another trip around the sun. -
CoH 2 has not been announced or and it seems unlikely to ever happen until CoH 1.0 is finished.
COH:Freedom, to me, seems to the beginning of what would be a "2.0." -
And then you whip out your sunglasses and say "Damn, I'm amazing?" (sans question mark)

Quote:In your original post:I have no interest in playing on a low end server, why did you mention this?
Quote:3.Also, how many of you are going to move to the VIP server? VIP sounds nice but Freedom has so many people. This game will become very different if played on a low volume server. -
Now I can't stop listening to this soundtrack.

The only translator I need is for when I'm searching for a recipe/enh on the market:
Esta se quema un agujero en su bolsillo! -
1. Nobody knows. Detailed information about that powerset has not been made public yet. We'll find out in Open Beta, I suppose.
2. No idea. Not a badge hunter.
3. The only way I'm leaving my (new) home server is feet first. Try playing on Victory if you want a low volume server experience.
4. VIP. Once a new costume set comes out on the market and you'll see you have a mountain of Paragon Points stored, you'll probably take interest in them then. -
In regards to this Superman musical, I still can't believe how they made all the songs 70's disco.

Quote:I see Pat Carroll listed in the cast (as Hawkman's mother) and I knew that name immediately. She is most famous for voicing:Legends of the Superheroes makes that seem like a lost masterpiece by Mozart. Imagine combining the camp of the Adam West-Burt Ward Batman TV show with the seriousness of Hanna-Barbara's Superfriends animated children's program. You cannot look away!

I know Green Lantern got some dismal reviews, Daredevil wasn't amazing, and Halle Berry's Catwoman was consider epic-fail - but remember, it could always be worse.
Like the 1975 Superman:The Musical.
Oh, and you can buy the cast album here. (Haven't checked to see if it is available on iTunes) -
Quote:Thank you for thatOk I gave it a shot but haven't come up with anything particularly impressive. I feel that, in general, Dominator sets that feature both melee and ranged tend to force your hand in terms of slotting. I would pick one or the other and stick with it rather than try to do both.
General comments:
- Many of the attacks in the original build lack damage slotting, make sure to change this if nothing else.
- Never (well, almost never) put more than two lvl 50 IOs of the same kind in a power. Especially not accuracy on a character with accuracy alphas and -defense in her attacks.
- Hasten is a borderline required power. Just the 3 second gap between Seeds can be a life saver.
- Fireball is generally a much better power for Dominators than Melt Armor. In fact, skipping Fireball should be criminal.
- Fly is almost always a wasted power unless you are just picking it for flavor reasons.
- Stealth and Invisibility can generally be replaced with Super Speed and a Stealth proc.
- Thorn Burst has a very long animation. It would be my first pick to drop from the build.
- If you keep Thorntrops, consider slotting it for damage procs.
Here is as far as I got working on what my version my look like. Perma-dom (barely) with 35% ranged defense. By dropping a few powers and reorganizing, I could do a lot better, but I didn't want to stray too far just yet. If you do decide to go with just one epic AoE, consider switching to the Psi APP and take Psionic Tornado.
Luck of the Gamblers are expensive but obtainable with low-ish effort by running hero and villain tip missions here and there. The other expensive piece is the Basilisk's Gaze quad, which usually costs around 100 million.
Definitely going to look into reslotting my enhancements - although I was checking the market for some of those recipes/enhancements - yikes! That's gonna take me some time.
As for taking Melt Armor - I take it for the Defense Debuff factor, which I use in combination with my secondary attacks, which all mostly defense debuff as well. Fireball I tried but didn't do much for me. -
I'm finally sharing the build of my main character, my Plant/Thorn Dominator, Voodoo Girl.
Feedback would be nice. I'm not complaining about my build; in fact it's been wonderful for me - but I'm curious what others think of it. I'm sure there's always room for improvement.
In terms of Incarnate Powers - I have a T3 Nerve - [Nerve Total Core Revamp] - boosting Accuracy by 45% and Hold Durations by 33%.
