    GMs and AVs were never meant to be solo-ed. That's why you used to have to "cheat" the system to even get them to appear inside your missions.

    Note my choice of words more carefully please. I never mentioned JUST them taking stamina. I was referencing them "needing" stamina to be able to play their characters.

    You can easily survive this game without travel powers, with the multitude ways to get around.

    Enhancements... well I don't know where that comes from, I've never seen anyone running any character without enhancements before, those seem to be crucial. But stamina? Completely optional.

    And what I'm saying, since apparently I need to spell it out more clearly, is that if someone feels that they 'need' stamina, then they are doing something wrong. Because then it's no longer a 'choice', using your word.
  3. In my opinion, if you don't know how to play your character well without stamina, you just simply don't know how to play your character.

    Or, in lolcatspeak... if j00z cant plai gud witout cheezburger, u sux0rz!!!

    My next planned project once I start playing again (once I get back from this work trip) will actually be to play a character that ONLY stays outside. NO door missions, PERIOD.

    So either the patrol missions, hunting on the street, or the Defeat X missions. Basically treat the instanced nature of CoH as if it doesn't exist and treat the game like any other "standard" MMO.

    Should be interesting... I wonder if anyone would be interested in a thread detailing the progress or not...

    Noy, have I ever told you just how much I love your forum name?

    They totally need to either remake or just finish that damn series... my childhood is tarnished because I lack CLOSURE!!!!!
  6. Did you make those Kheldarn, or find them? Because those are pretty damn cool and well done.

    In my opinion the latter, with a BIT of the former.

    In my opinion, a Defender should slot for damage in a "solo" build, and slot for the secondary effect in a "team" build.

    And if they are using a secondary that HAS no secondary effect, or a secondary that has one that's combat related (i.e. Sonic or Archery) that person should make them into an Offender, or pick a different secondary.

    But that's just me, I'm a Purist. But its your $15, do what you want.
  8. I've asked people before what they would do if they had a literal "I Win" button that would take them to 50. I got mixed answers, but about half of them said they would use it once or twice.

    It made me sad.

  12. Anyone that feels like some Nostalgia for the old boards, head over to Unleashed and use the Hero skin, or even the Villain skin for Villains. I actually used the exact same background color and link colors directly from the old boards.

    Well, what are you trying to accomplish? Could you post your build from Mids so that we know what you have?

    Do You Want Me?

    I'm thinking after a couple months of laxing in the game department waiting on GR, to actually PLAY again for once... but I want to pick a new server. I've been on Freedom and got sick of it after three years. I started on Justice and moved back there, but there's just too many Aussies! Virtue scares me... and Protector actually literally voted me out.


    So, what about you guys... don't you want me?
  18. Squirrel Girl rules... and I want to find out if her lips really do taste like hazelnut.
  19. I disagree. I'm just too lazy to prove you wrong. So you win by default.

  22. I would do it... if I wasn't lazy.
  23. I don't know why everyone else is having problems with it. All that I know is that not a single one of my teams have ever failed to succeed in the task that I set them to.

    ANY dev created content is completable with ANY team makeup and ANY combination of builds, powersets, and powers.

    The only difference is what strategy you have to adopt to accomplish it. Unless you just simply don't like to think, that is.

    Look, the fact is you suck at Burgertime. This is upsetting to serious Burgertime players like me. My Burgertime guild and I were chatting over Vent last night and we all agreed that your continuing participation in our beloved sport is an affront to our collective honor.

    I've trained for years on this game. It cost me my marriage, my job, and the respect of my children. I don't care. It's all been worth it. I have been petitioning the IOC to make Burgertime an official Olympic sport. It sickens me to see dilettantes like you trivializing this sport of kings.

    Burgertime is serious business, bub.

    This post fills me with joy. You are awesome.
