Quote:For grandville I have no idea.Certain areas require fly or teleport. Grandville and the Shadow Shard are the only places that require such travel. Luckily, that is where you can buy jetpacks.
For the shadow shard you are absolutely wrong unless you refuse to use geysers. The Shadow Shard is MASSIVE but once you get used to geysers with them making you move faster then anything else can besides TP friend you can get from one end Firebase Zulu to the other with SJ before you could go top to bottom of IP.(this changes for the other 3 of course because even though the horizontal movement is similar you also have to go up to a mile and a half up) -

I will bring something but just to get this the leaders will be 40s? or?"(Powers cap at 45)"
just was a tad confused about that part is all. -
Quote:yeah I am more worried about the settings then res sense I can only play at minimal to performance with this laptop(can go recommended for costumes).Response time (lower is better for gaming), contrast ratio, black level, brightness, and TN vs IPS are the other 'measures' I can think of off the top of my head.
Although, in all honestly, what I'd just do is find one in my price range with good reviews that meet my minimum desired resolution (screen size, unfortunately, seems to now be tied to resolution...). Currently, I just play on my laptop, which has a 1368x768 monitor as well, which is quite adequate
would like 90-120 range but can do up to 160ish as long as its just not a marginal increase. I prefer performance anyways but don't want to waste my graphics card to much.
edit: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16824009261
how does this one compare to the 2 in the 160-180 range hyperstrike posted? is the promo code savings already on there? if not its only 129.
also spent like 644 total on the whole tower so anything much above a 1/4th of the cost of whole thing is not happening.
edit: would prefer built in speakers. on that note if it doesn't mention having or not having speakers does it have or not have them? -
okay so what important things besides resolution should I look for?
oh and not playing on that monitor use medium laptop with 1368x768 max res. not touching old desktop any more for this no more 5 minute loads with 512mb of ram thank you -
I just got this graphics card (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814150447) and want to figure out what I need in a monitor to show most of what it can put out. Not in a super hurry to find one due to stupid UPS losing my case so I am now waiting for replacement to ship to me(will not come till the 1st-5th if the estimate process time is correct) or lost one to magically appear.(oh and ordered on the 4th so just a tiny massive bit annoyed)
monitor I have off old desktop is an HP vs15. what percent of my graphic card's capabilities could this display? -
Quote:Tickets per map are supposed to cap at 1500.Yea.. after this threads responces, I started my Dailies, and yea... if I had a ton of currency, I could see spending it on a recipe instead of waiting 2 months for it.. lol... 1 merit every 2 days and it takes 30 merits?... for 1 recipe?... ouch.... even at 10 merits per... thats almost a month of dailies... and from some of the reading Ive been doing... some people in the Brute threads were saying they can clear a farm, make on average 4000 tickets and a few mill in a matter of minutes...
Also LotG +7.5% have dropped to 105mil-125mil in last two weeks. -
@_Elektro_ Well what are you not willing to do as a tank? Cause LR for example irritates me a lot because most people outright refuse to do anything but stand there getting pummeled by him. When it comes down to it in fights like that its keeping people alive that counts so if you have to play tag with LR so be it. Otherwise I find my kin/arch defender on an average team can always be the first to run in and survive 98% of the time.(71% SL resist and 30-33% defense across the broad and transfusion doesn't hurt either). He only has ever had problems with drawn out solo fights with more then an aggro cap around that is not SL. This week he even was the closest thing to a tank on an Apex with 3 defenders, 3 corrupters, 1 dom and an MM. He only died once after I failed to transference during force of nature crash and even went toe to toe with a pylon helping keep aggro off people ranging(and didn't die!!!! was so awesome).
Quote:NO.then you missed the part where if you dont have it then its your own lazy fault cause in this game you have EVERY chance to make whatever you want if your willing to with tips/reward merits/hero merits/wtf/tickets/market
clearly your not willing too...so you actually made my point thank you
Yes a small percentage of people can make whatever they want off the market but it is completely, totally and perfectly IMPOSSIBLE for everyone to.
Telling people that the market can make them some inf is valid but telling everyone that "its your own lazy fault cause in this game you have EVERY chance to make whatever you want if your willing to" is just pure unrated stupid on your part because VERY few people have a chance to make a MASSIVE 10bil(for each toon) if and ONLY if the vast majority doesn't get that chance. -
Quote:Yes, because everyone loves utterly butchered canon!
Oh, wait...
OT; I still can't figure out why the Devs don't simply use multiple targetting boxes for giant entities. In the same way that Lusca's main body can't be killed (irrc) before the tentacles go down, that can just as easily work for the Giant Robot. Two legs, two arms, torso and head. Destroy the arms and it loses main weapons, but starts firing missiles from it's torso and lasers from it's head. Destroy one leg it gets a 50% speed penalty and loses any stomp attack it had, destroy the other and it's immobile. Destroy the torso to stop the missile barrage and make the head vulnerable. Finish off for coup de grace.
Unless theres some major tech hurdles in the way there (there may well be) I see no reason that it couldn't work.
I think the problem is they wouldn't be able to make it move. Just take a second and think of the animations Winter Lord has to do. Now make it so each enough of his main body sections is a different entity. They now need to make animations for each of these parts so that they move together and say his leg can't suddenly jump off his body and stomp. Other problems: these parts can't attack at same time and have to have code not only to pick which gets to but coordinate them moving at same time with only one actually launching an attack. All that seems like it would be a big problem and that doesn't even include moving which I imagine would be like the animations thing only far more complex in the timing. This just seems like it would such a horrible complicated mess that one thing goes wrong his torso up goes on way throwing snowballs and legs go stomping off the other way. -
I was happily surprised with the number of responses and thank you all for them.
Flamevoid: Yours has very nice endurance and a bit more recharge. I should have mentioned that unstoppable is one of my least favorite tier 9 god modes because while this is a really nice build for focusing on Unstoppable to me it sacrifices to much outside of it.
NecroOmNomNomicon: While the build I came up with is closer to yours and actually a bit weaker I have to agree with Finduilas on the weak points of your build. I would also like to point out like Finduilas that I see little point in taking stealth.
Hyperstrike: You were correct on those parts being different from Finduilas except the net on yours is also a bit less. Since I plan on getting a Nerve Partial Radial Revamp in my Alpha slot the extra defense in your build was less appealing to me then the better net end, better recharge, better slotting of Dull Pain and slightly more regen with that Alpha in effect.
Finduilas: Yours fit my concept of what I was trying to do with its great defense and the multiple little in it that were better then my attempt at it and other builds I saw. At this point that build will be the one I use on my inv tank "Metal of the Fold".
Edit: I did make to very slight changes I moved the slot with a Mako out of Shadow Punch and put in SJ for the Winters Gift Slow resist and changed the damage/range positrons blast in Ice Storm to the proc.
Thank you all very much for your replies. -
I felt like you were describing illusion control but that is probably just me.

I have a lv 50 Inv/DM/Arctic tank that I have shelved and want to it make my 4th toon to be IOed out.
I am going just for big tough tank like 2 builds in this thread ----http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showt...highlight=dark---- but both the datalinks are broken. I am willing to use about 2billion inf and about 1200 merits for this guy. That is only if that step up in price makes a decent difference instead of like 2seconds of recharge or something. I am working on it myself in mids but would like to see others builds/input/advice.
Edit: Forgot about epic was thinking Arctic for aggro/survivability increase from snow storm. Would accept other ideas for epic. -

Not only do you not get the Notice of the Well but you are flagged as getting the one time reward of it for that stirke target. So if you do a strike target non-alpha and then unlock the Alpha slot you won't be able to get it that Strike target week.

Well so far only tank I have taken on Statesman is my SD/Fire tank so I do this really fun and easy easy(would go toe-to-toe but I don't like chancing him getting lose when I am only tank).
I hover right between those 2 spires and he just runs up and down while I taunt.
1st time I did it I moved to much and kept messing myself up trying to type instructions at same time. Didn't help I had the channelgun -recovery almost the whole time kept hitting me ever time I got back up(still finished that one)
2nd time I got the perfect spot-----Never lost him once and he only hit me once while team was fighting towers. That is right ONCE-UNO-ONE-Singular Hit, he managed to queue his ranged hit as he fell off once but it was after 2 towers had been dropped so it didn't hurt to bad and still had the bored emp hovering over me. The emp might have been a bit peeved I didn't help him with Healing badges but it made for a ZERO death Recluse fight.
3rd time with a therm I fought him on the ground and manged to stay alive whole time, was a real close call when I got toggle dropped and had to hop for my life(YAY inherent hurdle) luckily someone managed to give me a blue and LR only wanted to Melee me so kept from getting hit.
When my inv/dark gets set up I am not going to kite him again but I don't feel at all bad doing it and it is a riot watching him.
Edit: I edited like 3 times sorry. -
I am looking for instructions to build a spiral staircase. The one I got the idea from is in the Nexus of Transcendence VG base on freedom but have been unable to get in contact with the person who made it.
I would be awesome to talk to someone that has made one but I can work with at least a list of items and a couple good pictures.
If I get instructions or manage to make one myself will post photos and instructions. -
Also no matter what rumors you hear lv shift does NOT effect your inf/xp/prestige gain.
-
I got 2 characters with the lv shift last night.
After I had gotten it on the first one I got on the 2nd and started forming a team of friends to get it. At this point only 4 of us on the team and none had gotten actually none of the other 3 had got one on any character yet. I went to Atlas Park to use the Market and mapserved 4 times there. Later during the STF I crashed once during recluse fight when still no one had a lv shift. -
Ok now I feel real stupid, I forgot that I had edited my key binds on other computer. Just realized pets were actually in aggressive.
I preferred having defensive stance as 4 the binds I copied have it has 5 -
Problem solved: I was assuming my binds were same they had always been.
