Thanks for that reloadgfx command! (I'll have to test it soon! I remembered that there was a command, but not what it was)

I've been having the occasional massive lag for a minute or two, where I can barely move or act, although I can sometimes attack by randomly hitting ranged attack, I just can't tell what happened. Then it eventually stops and all is right with the world. My wife doens't get the same thing, she locks up on mission exit or otherwise zoning after a few missions, on rare occasions out in the street.

This has been going on for me since shortly after issue 21 or at least winter event start. a real danger when I'm running with the Iron Eagles II SG on Justice, where dying equals retiring the character.

I'm going to make a macro button for it to spam click when the lag hits me.

/macro rGfx "reloadgfx"

1.- There is a quick reply key ... the Backspace key should setup a tell to the last person who sent you one.

2. If you mean storing Invention salvage, their are Vaults that will let you store items on the City Maps and in Pocket D there are both Hero and Villain Vaults... there is also a Vault and general Storage Racks for inside a SG Base. If you mean storing Enhancements, there's the 10 slots per character, there are storage tables for holding them in the SG Base. You can also send/store items in global Email. You can send items and INF to your own global name that starts with a @ ... like @superbob (not my real global where it can remain for 30 or 60 days max.

3. Every player and/or character is different. In my case I often make a Supergroup with me and my wife's character in it...and maybe one or two personal friends on one server. But other servers are different. On Justice my characters are pretty much all part of the Iron Eagles II SG ... a hardcore group that retires characters who die from the SG if they die.

4. Movement powers come from the power pools you need to take one of the first 2 powers in the group (opens from level 6) before getting the main movement power ( opens at 14th) There is a veteran reward that lets you take the movement power without prereq at level 6. Capes are available at level 20 ... need to run a mission arc from City Rep in Atlas City Hall for heroes, Kalinda or Burke villainside... Auras open at 30 from another mission arc from them. If you've purchased any paid Booster Packs... like the Magic Pack ... those capes are available at the start.

5. Yep, there is an Email system. You can send items like enhancements, inspirations, recipes, INF, salvage to anyone's global name, including your own. Your global name starts with @. I find it handy to always mail myself an awake and a breakfree ... for those times it all goes wrong... you can even collect them when dead

6. The Going Rogue system. Your character will start getting notification of TIPs found at level 20. They are special missions that can be found in a Tab on your Contacts area. These missions come in flavors. If you are a Hero they will come with a Hero choice, if you wish to affirm your Hero side, or a Vigilante, if you wish to slide to a darker shade of Hero. After running 10 of a type a special alignment mission Tip will drop from a defeat that lets you run a mission to either complete the change or affirm your existing status.

If you start in Praetoria you can play any type of character... at around level 20 you can travel to Primal earth choosing whichever side your prefer to become (Paragon/Rogue Isle) at that point


(edited in: I type too slow.there were no responses when I started )

It would really be nice if some of these things (WST, attack windows/servers to Praetoria etc) were listed in the ingame "/gmotd" screen or maybe added to those useless kiosks that used to display kill statistics etc
