  1. IMHO there is nothing to sort out. Seems that what most people think as well on the forums.
  2. Defenders are suppose to have the advantage. If someone has a base you are saying that they should not be able to defend it because you must win.

    The idea of base raids is it is hard. If you just want to run into a base you will get killed.

    You could send a bubbler MM into a base and use him 2 distract the forces inside while you load at a different point dump your pets and take them from surprise. Far to often people moan because there group will not stratagise.
  3. To be honest way to much energy is being wasted on the whole subject in favour of better content for the game.

    Better content less moaning.
  4. Most people that have reviewed COH/COV say that it is fairly balanced. You can have the devs run around nurfing things for ever but you will never gain balance. It is impossible in this type of game.

    Balance to most people is that there build is ubber against everything and never dies. Some build are better in PvE than PvP others are more effective in both.

    I have a Scrapper and he gets killed lots of times against stalkers, against Brutes hes an even match. My controller on the other hand holds stalkers for breakfast.

    All im saying is that some builds are good against others unless we all have the same powers it will never be balanced and nobody wants to be a clone either.
  5. PvP zones are about fighting other players NOT farming xp. I suggest you have broken a rule by trying to farm xp.

    If you dont want to look for a team do a solo mish. Just dont bother people who enter a zone to PvP with the "im here for xp". All you are doing is cheating and in the end they will just nurf the XP (like they did for PvP mishions)because it is not being used as intended.

    PvP hero biased

    My hero scrapper was in sirens and was either an exploit or a 2nd combo that i just didnt notice happened on 3 occasions from the same stalker though. Generally this game is well balanced. I have a controler and it will hold most toons as for killing them, not a chance. The sad fact is more heroes play in PvP.

    CoH has a functional PvP system it is not fair because there is no such thing. In most peoples eyes fair is that they never die and always win.

    Every toon has a role and depending on who you are fighting depends on how effective you are. Team work and tactics are few and far between. The perfect instance of this is how many stalkers have stealth? most of them. If every stalker had grant invis and hunted in teams to push and pull heroes out of position. Taking off Hide and inviting a chase so colleagues could kill straglers. All these would help stalkers would reign supreme.

    Groups of people play CoH/CoV very few are Teams.

    PS My stalker is getting grant invis for sirens anybody else wanna join me?

    PvP hero biased

    Each arch type has a role in PvP. Half the time villains only loose because there are more heroes in sirens. I have a SR scrapper with all the defeences + tough and still have been 1 shot killed by stalkers. Stalkers also get critical hits once they are discovered.

    If everybody had an invincible archtype it would not be much fun. All archtypes have a role in PvP some are however more instramental than others.
  8. Server: Defiant
    Game:City Of Heroes
    SG: The British Battlers

    Desc: We require new members to help in Task forces Cathedral Of Pain and eventually Base Raids. Our current group is friendly and helpful we would like more similar people to join up.
  9. Hi the SG(Brittish Battlers) Im in needs more people to help with base raids. We need people to help make it happen. The COP trial takes about 16 people(lvl 50) so we need many more. Please join us and help it happen.
  10. I can see them replacing it with hold. A few times in game people I have teamed with have said fear will be dropped from fire in time. My opinion is that hold will replace it throughout the game.

    -fly dosent make sense to me most controler types are very very similar only illusion is very different. Diversity is going out the window.
  11. in the latest patch they put live and then took down on the US training server some fire attacks now have -fly. Obviously this is in prelude to fear being removed from the game.
  12. Currently devs are collecting data on PvP in a kind of macro analysis. Then they go away and try to Micro manage things. Something tells me this is not the way to do it lol.

    Last night for instance in Sirens lots of heroes very few villains. I wonder who won, most PvP fights tend to come down to this mass of numbers.

    In the latest patch fire is going to be -fly. All toons should have strengths & weaknesses. Currently we have some builds that only work in PvP others in PvE.

    Each toon should hav strengths and weaknesses.

    Perfect balance is impossible.

    Even game reviews say this game was balanced more than most.
  13. There are 4/5 scrappers/blasters possibly 1 empath that want to do it. Will contact you at around 6.30 tomoz.
  14. We've heard that Teleporters might be getting an aux attachment to tp u back to mish door after defeat -

    This is called the base portal works for me :P and is a bug apparently
  15. There are two possibilities with bases either rent is scrapped and in time any sg could be huge or the cost of things is drastically reduced.

    As this is a lvling game I would prefer rent to be scrapped
  16. The idea is that rent does kill bases that have lost active members etc. The idea is that first you must work to get there and then more still to keep there.

    Having said that its not Rent but some capital charge or at least thats what I read on another thread :P
  17. Sure im up for that my global is king krypto. I will send you a tell in game.
