    It's not in their stats. It's not a buff. It's baked into their weapon attacks. And since they wouldn't be able to attack with their weapons, it doesn't need to have anything done with it.

    Not necessarily.

  3. You bind a power in-game to an odd key combo. Like SHIFT+I or CTRL+J or ALT+B, then bind a button on the nostromo to that combo.

    It was the collector's edition without the box. They had a bunch of leftovers that they pillaged.
  5. Wiki link about how to unlock stuff for premium players:
    http://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Premium_Player

    Once it has been unlocked, it's unlocked forever. However, being VIP doesn't UNLOCK things, it just allows temporary access to locked systems/mechanics/characters/slots/whatever. If you want to continue to play, you'll either have to continue subbing or purchase the unlock. (or purchase enough points/subscribe long enough to get enough reward tokens to permanently unlock controllers through the paragon rewards program)

    There is no such thing. Powersets with weapon redraw have a higher base accuracy in each attack (typically 1.05 instead of a straight 1), not any kind of tohit buff.

    There is someone working at Paragon Studios that Positron is on record about: while they (not Positron, but this mysterious other person) work there, these things will never be released for sale.

Something in the formula is way off across the board. I certainly don't like constantly re-crafting/buying enhancements cause devs want to do something hinky. The levels across the board seem off espeically with this latest issue.
    Congratulations on your necropost! Also: you may want to bring along some proof, because my characters are MORE POWERFUL and MORE DURABLE than they have been since the last few issues.

    This is obviously incorrect because there is a dayjob badge that increases out-of-combat recovery and another that increases out-of-combat regeneration.

    Logging in the character doesn't matter, it's the account that matters.

    And even then, now that it's free-to-play, I doubt that even matters either.
  11. Just curious: Where's your technical or gameplay issue?

    That's OK. It'll be the first powerset I've bought since Beam Rifle.
  13. Well, keep in mind that you can still use "special enhancements" - Hydra/Titan/Hamidon enhancements, synthetic or otherwise. My main character is *still* full up on HOs in her main build and uses generic IOs for the remainder (which used to be SOs), and the difference between the SOs and IOs is pretty minimal.

    She does use the defense -KB in Maneuvers and would be loath to lose that, but that's available on the Paragon Market for only a buck-fitty so would be easy to get back if I wanted to spend points.
  14. All powerset purchase requirements (or lack thereof) are available on the wiki
  15. Uh, no, just log into your master account, click on your game account, and select the link on the right side to download the launcher.
  16. No. The game only recognizes one chord key at a time (the last one pressed).
  17. The correct syntax is (replace c:\binds\#.txt with your preferred folder and filenames, replace k with your preferred key):

    c:\binds\1.txt:
    Code:
    k "powexecname Psychic Focus$$bindloadfile c:\binds\2.txt"
    c:\binds\2.txt:
    Code:
    k "powexecname Build Up$$bindloadfile c:\binds\3.txt"
    c:\binds\3.txt:
    Code:
    k "powexecname Conserve Power$$bindloadfile c:\binds\4.txt
    c:\binds\4.txt:
    Code:
    k "powexecname Power Boost$$bindloadfile c:\binds\5.txt
    c:\binds\5.txt:
    Code:
    k "powexecname Boost Range$$bindloadfile c:\binds\1.txt
    Create five text files, with one line in each text file, containing the codes above. You'll then type /bindloadfile c:\binds\1.txt in your chat bar to load the first one. Then each time you press "k", a new selfbuff will be applied, in order, and will load the next buff. Once you reach the fifth buff, it will recycle back to the first buff.

    [[[note]]] You can use bindloadfilesilent if you prefer not to have system message spam each time you load a file.

    Talking about stereotypes is only half a step away from being prejudiced, just so you know. It's an incredibly slippery slope, and where most racist people who don't grow up in racist environments/familes/friends get their start (most racist people *do* grow up in racist surroundings, though - racism is a LEARNED behavior).
