Quote:The Oro Portal is not a travel power.Originally Posted by Mr. NoPants
So if it disabled the Oro portal it would only help you get to that first mission to start things off.
It should remain even under the most strict powers disabling settings.
There is however a bug with it last time I checked that messes with availability when exemped -
The setting disables travel powers.

The pass is needed as she is in the Tiki room.
But I never had an issue getting to see Lauren in IP on a lowbie anyway. -
Besdies the 'transport hub' comments.
One reason behidn this is such that the no travel powers setting is actually meaningful.
If you could get to every mission zone, where is the real 'handicap' of that setting ? -

Was this before or after the recharge changes? Just curious how much the AB was impacting the damage output.

Fixed, and thanks for the effort.

In the Royal Navy, Commander is equivalent to Lt Colonel in the Army system (NATO OF-4).
A Frigate, Destroyer or Submarine will typically be captained by a Commander. -
Quote:Can you install a patch and run a defrag at the same time on your desktop ?Originally Posted by Bionic_Flea
I agree. I understand the need for maintenance and the need for updates. But shouldn't we do those two together whenever possible?
Couldn't we have done maintenance yesterday or the update today?
Maintenance is maintenance (defrag, swapping out components, tweaking settings, updating the OS) and cannot be done simultaeously with an update (changing the actual game server software).
A better question would be is a 4 hour downtime on a Thursday better on weeks with a patch than a second downtime. -
Technically they actually use neither but use a scalar amount which just so happens to coincide for all existing ATs with the base HP, in the future there may be an AT created that this is not true for, but lets just call it base HP currently.
Now for the scary Math.
At 1800/2000, (90% health) the first step is the application of the +HP (50% of base or 750 HP).
However, the proportion of health is also stretched to remain constant (90% in this .example)
So after step 1, the Max health is now 2750 and the current HP is 2475
After that, the heal (in the example 60% or 900HP as the heal is fully enhanceable) is applied, which obviously caps the HP at the new Max.
Stupid Fanboy has an excellent gudie to Dull Pain:

Easy rule of thumb, for maximum effect with 95% healing hit Dull Pain at about half you HP bar and you will go all the way up to full on the new higher HP. -
Quote:Actually, I'm going to have to disagree here. Whilst in war attempts are made to demonise the opposition through propoganda, its actually fairly rare that there is a real conflict of morality.Originally Posted by Lord_Kalistoh
Enemies are, by definition, contrary to your morality, and that makes them evil to you. You can't have enemies that are good, because that would mean that you know what are you doing is evil. No-one does things that think are evil (unless they think there's a better good after).
PD: If something is hard to understand, sorry. English isn't my 1st language. Sometimes it's difficult to me to express the exact thoughts.
World War II in the European Theatre, would be a prime example of one where there was a clear conflict of morality. (even if not necessarily obvious at the start)
World War I, however wasn't about morlaity at all, but about a balance of power struggle, and over the 'right' to exploit Imperial resources.

Quote:That is actually the whole other side of that.Originally Posted by KaliMagdalene
I want to point out that while you make an excellent point about morality at the time, that explanation of morality doesn't account for how the enslaved human beings felt about being slaves - rather, it sort of establishes them as objects to be acted upon rather than subjects with their own lives, thoughts, and beliefs.
Its a sad state of the world that despite a couple of hundred years of it being illegal, trafficking in humans is very much alive and well through out the world.
Now THAT the Benevolent Emperor Cole would simply not allow. -

Maybe it would be a hacker. Of course, doesn't CoH already have one of those?

Interestingly the Doctor is part of the backstory of my Heroic 'AE only' character. She isn't real, but is an AI inserted in to the AE computers. -
Its not so very long ago in Human History, that a 'good man' was someone who treated his slaves well.
1772 in England, 1777 in Vermont (first part of what became the US) was the recognition that slavery was illegal.
The idea that 'owning' another person was wrong, and dare I say evil, was completely alien to many people before the abolitionist movements.
Of course it took a lot longer (a century or more) before the owning of slaves was abolished and the cessation of treating women as 'property' (of their fathers, or then their husbands) occurred in the West.
Were these people Evil ? Or just a product of the morals and over-riding opinions of their times. -
The old British Army joke.
The Lieutenants job in war is to stand in front and make a glorious example when shot, and leave things to the Sergeants to actually do everything. -

I just want to say how much fun it is to discuss morality and moral philosophy with people that actually know what the subject means.
Conversations with certain other friends have been.. unfulfilling.

Quote:There are plenty of examples in nature of damaging 'the species' to favour 'my family'.Originally Posted by Marcian Tobay
I was actually thinking about my statement a bit while I was away from the desk, and I think I need to add a caveat.
The only core human prerogative is to forward the survival of the species. Many have a preference for forwarding their own family line.
As killing for fun is counter-productive to the species, perhaps it can be categorized as not good.
Infanticide when a new alpha male takes over a pride/troop/generic-collective noun is just one example -
