Old dog, a new trick

So last night, I was running around at level 12 soloing my new DP/Traps Cor. I got bored due to my slow (for me) advancement and was thinking about hopping over to L4D2 instead, when I posted to PinnBadges with a inquiry as to whether there were any villains that wanted another DP on their team.

Then I went AFK. I came back to find an invite on my screen and without even checking to see who it was, I accepted.

Saw that my new teammate was in Grandville on OMW I went. Then checked global and saw that my benefactor was Lemur Lad. Told him yay and how happy I was that I didn't need to be polite.

We ran, I think, 5 missions, maybe 6. LL on his mace/shield brute at 46, me on my unslotted dp/traps at 45.

Here's the point to the post:

I advanced 9.5 levels. I wasn't door sitting. It was fun. I was honestly shocked at how the new diff settings were affecting the lowbie's leveling speed in a wide-level-spread duo like this.

It would appear that "I have seen the light" as it were.

So in the future, when I've decided to cruise around on my mains soloing at +2/x8, expect to hear from me in PinnBadges offering to team with anyone that feels like some fast XP.

Door sitting will, of course, not be tolerated. I know you want your debt badges anyway.

Thanks, LL.


Be well, people of CoH.

*breaking news*

The denizens of Hell, are joining the folks all over the Northern Hemisphere in complaining about the excessively low temperatures and the long winter.

$politician blamed global warming and the right wing
$commentator denied this, and blamed $president


Iceland, who are having an unusually warm winter, just laughed.

I can't even keep track of when he's in the quit-state and when he's in the back-state anymore. I just assume he's in a superposition of quitting and returning, and is always playing and not playing. He's basically Schrodinger's Villain.

I wonder if that'll fit in my sig.

EDIT: yup.

I've been surprised and pleased with the new auto-full-team-sk thing as well. I especially like how it eliminates all the whining and sk refusal/dropping shenanigans with people who were at the low end of the curve.

You're more than welcome. It's always a blast teaming with you. Even when crazy stuff happens like you play a Dom and I play a Stalker.

We keep upping the diff until it's a foregone conclusion? (When we're on lowbies, of course.)
