Yes. That's how random number generation works on computers.

Ok, what should I change in this:

Level 1: Fury

If we're counting Darkest Night as defense, may as well count Dark Obliteration too.

I've come to the conclusion that I just can't figure the answer out for myself. What direction will lead Electric Armor to being most survivable: regeneration/hp or defense?

This was fixed, for me at least, shortly after this was posted.

Has this been done publicly anywhere?

Rather than creating a new thread, I thought I'd tack onto this one. This is the build I'm considering with an Invuln/EM Tank. Can anyone see any improvements?

Are those times PM (I hope)?

You want your Numina++ in Physical Perfection, not Health. It'd give you more regen and more recovery.

PargonWiki indicates these recipes aren't available by means other than reward rolls. I take it to mean from this thread that information is incorrect?

Is this the same AE I'm currently using to make billions of influence and hundreds of levels in? It hardly sounds like the same thing as what the OP is describing.

Keen, thanks.

Ok, let me see if I can summarize what you've said correctly:

If starting from a stand still, one's jump speed is determined solely by jump speed.
With a running start, horizontal speed is determined by the higher of run speed and jump speed.

Pretty simple question, I just don't know the answer. It's clear run speed has some impact on jump speed, but given that they have different values, I can't conclude what.

Hmm, now that I've had time to think about this, would a Stalker be better at this activity than a Widow?

I've got a super-aoe farmer, but he's fairly lackluster at merit farming on his own. I was theorizing that Stalkers might be exceptional at this.

When grinding stories, the goal of speed means I wouldn't be setting the difficulties up any, so I'd be looking at -1x1 or +0x1. I think Stalker stealth to run to objects, and extreme burst on low population groups would make Stalkers the fastest at this activity.

What do you experienced Stalkers have to say?

CoX is a game. Other MMOGs are chores, at best.

Is there some trick to getting into melee range with the Jade Spider other than continually hopping?

Do higher level critters drop more tickets?

Do bosses drop more tickets than lts which are more than minions?

I do AE stuff every single day. I actually prefer the ticket method of gaining rewards since it gives me some control over what I want. It's also pretty handy for grouping with my friends since I can do it in Atlas Park and not make them come to Peregrine Island.

While we're on the subject, does the level of the enhancement matter in any way?

Still can't free hostages either.

Are you sure it isn't two spawns very close together?

Specifically, I was wondering if I could craft stuff that I could slot (+3 levels)?
