  1. Have to say, this has to be one of the lamest special events to record since I started back with City of Villains in Issue 6. Hope they learn from this and make the next event more enjoyable.
  2. Have noticed that too, and size of your team/league makes absolutely no difference in their spawn amount either. Hell I've noticed the bomb drop rate seems off depending on which zone you fight them in too.
  3. Depends thou, as we only have seen 1 invasion so far its hard to say.

    Plus they were over a hour late even starting this event.
  4. Well as of 922 am est, the devs have failed to delivery the invasion event.
  5. Need a tank/brute that can actually hold aggro, need -regen toons which alot of people don't play or have these days, need several healers, plus the damage
  6. To be honest for all the comic discussion, their is no technical tanks in the comic world because tanks are dmg sponges only. Tanks aren't meant to do actual dmg compared to any other of the melee AT's, expect for the Fire Armor which is more of a Brute/Scrapper then a actual Tank.
  7. 913 am est and still nothing. Be nice if the devs posted something like they are having delays or something.

My thinking is that without those, the end/recovery crash would also be removed, and the recharge time of the power would also be increased, effectively making the power more useful for the Blaster.

    I kind of used Energy Manipulation as a guide. It also has a melee knockback, a melee disorient, and a hard hitting single target power.



    Ninjitsu Manipulation:

    1) Crane Kick - Melee, High DMG(Smash), Knockback
    2) Cobra Strike - Melee, Medium DMG(Smash), Foe Disorient
    3) Caltrops - Ranged (Location AoE, Minor DoT(Lethal), Foe -Speed
    4) Dragon's Tail - PBAoE Melee, Moderate DMG(Smash), Foe Knockback
    5) Focus Chi - Self +DMG, +To Hit
    6) Exploding Shuriken - Ranged (Targeted AoE), Moderate DMG(Lethal)
    7) Kuji-In Retsu - Self +SPD, +Recovery
    8) Blinding Powder - Ranged(Cone), Foe -To Hit, Sleep, Confuse, -Perception
    9) Eagles Claw - Melee, Superior DMG(Smashing), Foe Minor Disorient

    Can you say completely OP. Reduce the dmg levels for all the powers by one level then ok.
  9. Be nice but we will never get it because the devs HATE the villain side, they have since issue 7 and has only gotten progressively worse since then.

This is probably just a last ditch attempt to keep people subbed while they continue to release content at a snails pace.
    Can't blame you, mine expires on Dec 13, but my Tor pre-order starts Dec 15th, don't really see any actual incentive for me to stay.

    Never-the-less. I think I will ask Santa for a 3-6 month plan for CoH this Christmas.

    Yeah, I'm such a tool.

    Shame nothing in his Loyalty program actually gives the players anything other then flair.
  12. What do you expect, its villain side. It toke them 14 issues before the devs actually decided to fix the bug in the Ice Mistral SF. If you don't know about it either, just shows how much you play villain side.

    Basically villain side is treated worse then red headed step children, only reason I've stayed this long is blind hope Matt Miller will pull a donut out of his mouth and see that CoV needs more love then what they already have.

    Actually, no it wouldn't.

    A thousand doesn't seem so low to me since I'm rarely dealing with spammers these days, but maybe free players will end up making me change my mind.

    Guess you never played on the Freedom server then. Atlas Park and Cap au Diable are horrible for money farmers spamming let alone people spamming for AE runs.

    Maybe then folks would be more understanding. If there is something seriously wrong with the servers which required near daily maint they need to say so.

    On Tuesdays them being down is understood to be for a patch.

    I think they need to state why they need more than Thursday to do maint so folks can get why the servers need to come down as often as they have been.

    Not going to happen, this game is absolutely horrible for letting players know what is happening when it comes to maintenance.

    In another MMO their devs tried an auto-silence feature where if enough petitions were filed the offending account lost all ability to communicate for 24 hours or until a GM reviewed it.

    Sadly they had to pull the feature because the jerks immediately started using it to grief innocent players because they thought it was funny getting people silenced.

    Devs just need to add more to our ignore list. Say a additional 100-200.

    Yah I would more likely go this path with a mentality of the Punisher. Civilians die everyday, a couple extra wouldn't matter as long as the job gets done in the long run.

    Look, I dig... Complaining doesn't make anything go faster. But, some people like to complain. AND, some people like to make fun of complainers.

    The service has been down more lately, and attrocious since Sunday. So, whatever they need to iron out before Freedom Launch, let them get to it.
    And don't forgot the ppl like yourself that are the *** kissers of companies.
  18. Sry Alpha, but as a paying customer. I expect better service, not the same old BS excuses.
  19. Just like last week, basically half the day wasted and the devs don't have enough common courtesy to let us really know what is going on. Instead they are giving away ridiculous costume pieces on the Beta server.
  20. Really hope I'm one of the few players that gets a Game key for the early release of SWTOR over the weekend, because this game has gone down hill severely every since they mentioned this was going F2P.

    I need to, esp since bugs in the game like my rest power not showing up in my tray when I lvl to lvl 2 still after a year of petitioning still are around.

    As this is the 2nd wave of the Beta, yes I expect the Paragon Point system to be working at the very least.

    I was referring to the adding more content before actually fixing bugs in the game. VIP Beta shouldn't of come out till all the new content was working properly.
