mmk, went ahead had PLed someone 1-50 last night to see how the resent change effected everything.
Took 3:19. Exactly 14 arcs, 70 missions, of FIRE! (ID# 423253)
Load times were included, they had an average of 6 in 7 out. Which means there was about....15 minutes of load times i think. I honestly couldnt believe how fast they were.
Thats down from about 2 hours and 9.5 arcs. -
U have way too many powers from your primary than you are going to need. At least if SJ/ is anything like it was on beta. Like the first combo breaker (a crappy cone) and the weaker of the level one powers.
Also yes, for the love of god get lightning field and powersink. -

Heroic and Villain Stances were emotes added with GR:Complete Collection. Two versions of each. Linky.
Was he talking about something he saw years ago? i.e. long before the stances were added to the game. That is what i thought you meant. -

Again, please keep this in context. In "do it all" discussions, "normal" spawns are +4/x8 and even level spawns become the edge case.

Quote:Well, considering MOs are supposed to be some of the hardest badges in the game to get i think they are in the right spot. Lets not forget that iPowers have made them EASIER already. I actually did an MoSTF once and everyone was just bored because it was so easy. And I would think only half of that team could solo an ITF, so imo they werent even "good."Originally Posted by Snow Globe
It doesn't have anything to do with an entitlement complex. Though it sounds like you should look into a mirror before accusing others of having any complexes.
This is a casual-friendly game. When PUGs still regularly fail these and others aren't even bothering with the challenges, then yes, they are harder than they should be.
Oh, and my SG has one active player in it...
If anything they need to introduce new badges that have us run TFs on even harder settings. Maybe add buffed and debuffed, and no insp or something.
I'm sorry but these badges just arent that hard to get at all anyway. -
Quote:This, when someone wants to "do it all" that to me means EVERYTHING.Originally Posted by Dispari
I would think "do it all" would count farming. Which involves lots of enemies in normal spawns. Heck just running task forces and trials counts as "it all" and that has lots of regular enemies.

Quote:Both of these arent valid points imo. I actually test out my toons and see how they will do with really bad lag, in fact i think the best toons are the ones that are still good.Originally Posted by Nericus
Aside from not everyone having an SG to fall back on to coordinate these badges with, there is also:
1. Someone may be having a laggy/crummy connection and thus get killed. Granted they should have aborted and let someone else have their team spot
2. Someone is too lazy or arrogant to follow instructions and blows the badge for the rest
Really? someone is lazy? Thats the best you can come up with?
I will say this tho, a lot of the MOs get HARDER the more people you add. -
SS/SD brute, just dont like SC's low dmg cap
SS/WP brute, lack of dmg
DM/SR brute, lack of dmg
ill/cold, i just dont like the play style.
list goes on and on -
Quote:Sounded to me like either villain or hero stances.Originally Posted by Arcanaville
Its called a flight sequencer bug, I think. It never happens to me deliberately, only randomly.
They are pretty freakin cool looking but you gotta use points to get them if you dont already have them. -
apex, so unimpressive i havent even tried to solo. most half decent pugs should be able to do this if they tried.
ITF, soloed
Kahn, soloed
LGTF (hami is the only thing that makes it tough, and i cant solo it...)
cuda
baf (its *kinda* hard but not really)
underground, the first 2 UG trials i did on live just happened to be for this.
LRSF
States
lambda
keyes, this stands out as the hardest by far. Some people are just too slow to move out of a green patch.
Quote:i totally disagree with this. The the thing that makes it tough is that you have to work as a team and make sure you AND your allies does die. I agree with green stuff and dodgerOriginally Posted by Snow Globe
Agreed, though the same can be said for the following badges:- Loves a Challenge
- Midnight Dodger
- Master of the 5th Column Strike Force
- Master of the 5th Column Task Force
- Master of Lady Grey's Task Force
- Master of the Imperious Task Force
- Master of Statesman's Task Force
- Master of Lord Recluse's Strike Force

Yep, it doesnt affect AE farming on live. Originally (during open beta) it would kick in tho, thankfully that was changed.

Quote:YepOriginally Posted by EricHough
I will second what Claws said and back it up with personal experience on my SS/Fire brute. I played L1-50 on her with only a single -KB IO and maybe once in a blue moon actually got knocked back. Then I got to incarnate content and spent a ton of time flying through the air until I slotted up 2 more -KB io's for a total of 12 points resistance - after that I was fine again. So 4 points should carry you through all the PVE content with only minor issues that can pretty much be ignored, then if you want to run incarnate content I would recommend bumping up your protection to 12 points at least - but I don't see any need for more than that.

To the op, no.

Quote:...it already was enough. and (for the critters on my map at least) regen didnt increase anythings survivablity AT ALL. Granted, not giving minions a rez would have likely been good (i actually did that for a short while but people didnt like it)Originally Posted by Giant2005
Actually, from my testing it seems to increase both. We should have been doing this a long time ago.
Without the regen, one footstomp and one tick of a damage aura is enough to kill the minions, TTK has gone down significantly.
Either way, im already working on testing and optimizing my map for these changes. I would not be suprised if we end up even faster.
Overall its not as fun as it used to be, but its not that much slower. -
Mmk, did some tests, AE still pwns.

I thought that test was outdated

Quote:This slows down not onlys ticket gain, slightly, but also how quickly you can PL someone.Originally Posted by Aipaloovik
I thought most of the farmers made their money rolling ticket rewards and dumping product into the market. More product doesn't drive prices up generally. Or have I missed the point of farming? Basing that understanding off the CEBR thread.

Yep, dont bring greens, they ******* suck and that is were you are running into ur problem.
Bring a few purples (2-3) and a ton of reds. -
Quote:Well, if a toon is going to be the best at every thing that means they will run into a situations that arent optimal. And if a toon cant keep up high performance lvls then its not that great in my opinion. And this is something that can happen to a WS too easily for me to say they are the best.Originally Posted by Gospel_NA
You're the first person I've seen that judges the performance of their character that way. Usually, it's top end performance people focus on, while others prefer to look at the average performance.
I find it interesting that you go that route. I've yet to experience any true lows for the WS that I are really any different than any other character I've leveled, minus the vunerability to quantams which can be annoying. -

Did you even look at the two characters I linked above, both of which were in a comic and a cartoon each, who are both named Bullet Proof?
