    Aside from the vet extras you listed.

    Not sure I call everything else a small effort either, least not for me Vanguard sack took me a lot of months grinding vanguard missions (I do know it would of been quicker if i was able to do a mothership raid)
  2. I really liked the no prompt on it ):

    Crime Fail -

    Torrenting it might be way faster than downloading with the updater though.
  4. So for my widow, Mask prescence + Stealth IO + Superspeed is overkill?
  5. I was thinking of giving a MM of mine 4-5 slots of brawl with damage procs + accuracy.

    Most likley be better than my other attacks

That's doubly in the realm of War Witch's territory (both in terms of having more zone author expertise, and in being their absolute ruler and all).
    I think BaB's also against Shield Offence and Pistol Melee.
  7. I havent noticed the crafting cost on any of the new powers

    Be nice if the recipe pack was the gold bricker one
  8. I've found after logging off, and relogging on, while getting all my toons thier annvisery badges that I'd keep getting the 'you are still logged on' message.
    Not a big deal, but odd as the 30 sec count down would run through fine going back to login screen.

    Welcome

    After activating the trial, you will need to download the game from http://www.cityofheroes.com/account/...of_heroes.html

    This can take ages, I think I spent about five days doing it so hope your connection is better than mine

    Then you can login in and create a character. You are going to have some harsh limits with trial, like not being able to level past 14, so its a good chance to make a fair few different characters and see what sort you like.

    There are a lot of different servers, I play mostly on Virtue but everyone has thier favourite, so maybe check them out with different characters and see what community plays at your times on them.

    Unlike other games, if you are from different MMO theres no need for the tank/healer/damage trinity and its also real solo friendly.

    I really suggest you do the tuturials for both hero and villain, and saty away from farms - these will mostly be in AE (architect enternaiment) and level you faster than is benefical. Enjoy the start of the game when its new

    hope this helps

  10. I'm sad its still so small too. I think the devs have great eyesight, or its a harder than expected thing to fix.

Other than that, I'm pretty bummed that I won't be able to attend any of the server events.
    At least you have a chance, us in totally different timezones dont have any likelihood of making it ): Be nice if one year a GM who lived in a different time zone, or working night shift was able to start it.

    Hope you'all had fun that did make it, and look forward to hearing the tales.
  12. Thank you Everyone

    Some great ideas for me.
  13. I've been looking to make a queen type costume.

    But stuck for inspiration, just cant make something suitably regal.

    I do have all the add on packs.

    Anyone help me out with looks/ideas?

    I think 'screwed up' builds is a bit a negative way of looking at using lots of respecs. Its fun to change around powers and slotting, I really enjoy changing even little bits around to se ehow different, and though dual builds is no good for that, needing all them IOs again can put me off that route. I use nearly every freespec I get, and not becuase I screwed up my build.

    But if you are on a mac, and not using bootcamp or something, use Sucker Punches online build planner: http://www.cohplanner.com/ (the right hand side one) should work on any computer.

    Prestige is about as meaningless as debt. I don't think a prestige bump is necessary at all--and if they did one, the results would be negligible. It would be nice if bases got some attention, IE more things to spend it on.
    I wish Prestige was as easy to gather as debt.

    Sorry, you must be out of touch of people starting up new super groups to say prestige is meaningless.
  16. YaY - no mass team event - Thank you!

    Will get badges on new toons, grab those nifty powers and have a toga party.
  17. oh thats why - thank you, I just assumed as you get dropped to level 30 in sirens you could do the misisons.

    You think its based on whim then?
  19. Hello, I only have two missions in my mission list. I go to talk to Massey in sirens call to get the patrol mission, but when I click on him, he just responds with "go see one of your other contacts, I've got nothing for you".

    I wish these events were held in more varied times (zones) Not complaining, just wishing.
  21. I just wish they would do the same for the older halloween badges as the christmas ones, and have something to hand in to get them.
  22. Portions of this post have been removed -Mod08

    On topic, I think most people on dial up are the least likley to be checking forums.
  23. Like some others in this thread, the drive by buffing helped make me love heroes when I started. Getting IR'd as a lowbie and seeing what super jump was like was wild ^-^

    The influence sink I really want to see is to have the flipper games, the poker tables and the roulette in Pocket D be minigames that would be raked. This would be somewhere I would go with my influence. Imagine playing poker against villains in Pocket D, that would be just like a bond movie :-)
    That would be sooooo cool.

    What about an inf price then you play the game without gambling? Arcade style games and that sort of stuff.
