Anyone know when they removed smash resist from Necro pets? I just npoticed when I clicked info on the Zombies and GN there is nothing listed for it. Typo?

I blame you for making me a sad panda

I blame you for all of Pinnacle's issues

That is the base percentage? I've seen people say 7%, 7.5%, and 8%.

I'm trying to figure out what percentage 2 enforcers generate, if they have 2 level 50 Defense IOs in them. I would think it would be 11.2% for each enforcer, if the base value is 7.5%. Is that accurate? That would be pretty sweet if each pet was getting 22.4% as long as each enforcer was alive. Seems a bit high, but cool.

According to the in game info tab for enforcer it is 7.41% base (strange number)

What exactly is the +def aura and +resist aura numbers for Call to Arms and Expedient Reinforcement? It is blank in Mids

I heard coalition chat that day, as well as at least part of a Vent conversation.

When "Johnny" came online on this occasion, he asked "What's up?" in SG chat. I believe there was one other person on in SG at the time, but for reasons that have nothing to do with this topic, he was not greeted in return.

Approximately two minutes elapse and "Johnny" reposts his greeting in Coalition Chat. He was answered shortly by a coalition member, who said: "The price of gas?" To which "Johnny" launched into an extremely venomous tirade on the personal qualities of Obama and then proceeded to tell everyone in channel how ALL of the problems in the United States were the fault Obama, and of the democratic party, in general.

The Endless SG leader (not on a SG toon, but a toon in the "50s" group, so she had not seen SG chat but HAD seen Coalition) sent him a tell saying that an "open" channel was NOT the place for political rants, and that he WOULD refrain from future outbursts.

Tells, Vent, more tells and more vent. He could not just say "okay". He was argumentative and demanding from the beginning to the end.

Say what you will about leaders taking themselves seriously, but we are representatives of whoever decided we were someone we wanted to have associated with us, and a creation of ours.

There are other things that I could say about the situation with "Johnny" but none of them have any place here in the forums. What I WILL say is that in response to those people who have asked if he /petitioned the leader, the answer is NO, as the entirety of his post, past having been booted from the SG is 100% fabrication.

Well that sucks, this makes it hard to be a vendictive [censored] if there is doubt with the original poster . Bah! I hate “two sides to every story” crap , I am just going to stick my fingers in my ears and pretend I didn't read it....lalalalalala

I am going to spend every waking moment finding out who they are and what they said to this poor guy to make him quit the game. I hate internet bullies and will do everything in my power to make their game life a miserable hell( if that thread is true ). Oh a project!!!!

The post wasn’t really for Mercs but for Thugs. As far as I am concerned for Mercs its a no brainers since they really aren’t losing anything , If you slot Achilles and ToLG in both soldiers and spec-ops you still have enough slots left over to get a 90% + to hit / damage.

In Thugs , you do not have enough slots on your enforcer to get 90%+ to hit /damage + Achilles + ToLG and 2x IO slotted+Def to get Maneuvers from 7.50% to 11.25%. It might not seem like much but in later levels I find the difference between 15% def and 22.50% defense is very noticeable.

A mix of purple sets may get you close to capped damage with +defense and AH procs. You don't need that much +accuracy since Enforcers have Tactics (?).

What is your secondary?

You can put two unique in Punk and Bruiser to get that extra defense/resistance.

My secondary is Dark.

I don’t understand what you mean about Punk and Bruiser. Achilles and ToLG can only go in the Enforcer since it has the Defense DeBuff set ability , I don’t have any issue's with slotting Sovereign or Edict IO’s as I put them in the Bruiser and Thugs along with 5 Mandate's

Thread necro time.....I just came back to CoX after 14 months and I get this all the time now. I end up having to backspace 100+ characters of 123132323132313231 just to type any message. Is there a thread with this as a known issue? It really needs to be fixed ASAP

I can understand the concept of Achilles Heel and ToLG (shadow) in both Soldiers and Spec Ops but is it worth it in thug Enforcers? I would be losing the 2x +21% Def IO’s ( for over +8% total def ) from their Maneuvers, or even worse 2 x Damage IO’s.

Ok I did a bit more searching and found these two threads. All I can say is WOW, after adding -renderthread 1 to my "C:\Program Files\City of Heroes\CovUpdater.exe" line on the icon properties, I now get 40 to 60 fps outside. Ok this is playable now, why was this turned off by default?

Just started playing again after 6 months.

Old system

Intel 2.8 (800 ) Northwood
2048 PC3200 ram
Nvidia 6800GT 128 AGP
Soyo Dragon 2 PE865 MB
SB Audigy
160g WD ATA 100 HD


Average of 20 to 25 FPS outside with most set to Medium and High. 1280 x 1024

New System

Core2Duo 6400 (2113 stock)or(300x8, 2400 OC)
2048 Corsair XMS2 TWIN2-6400
Sapphire (ATI) x1950xt 256
Asus P5B-E 965p MB
SB Audigy 4
250g Sata 2 3.0 HD

Fresh install of windows with most recent MB, video and soundcard drivers. I get 20 - 30 FPS outside at 1280 x 1024 with most settings to high, some medium ( no high water or depth of view ). Considering this system is capable of playing Oblivion at 1280 x 1024 all settings high ( no AA or AF ) and maintains a constant 60-100 FPS outside, this is sad.....
