    There's an HO (Enzyme) in that. Resulting total enhancement is 48.55% defense (the ED cap is roughly 56%). My resulting total ranged defense in Mids' is 45.2%.

    If I take the HO out, and replace it with a fourth LOTG, I can get better defense enhancement at the cost of some endurance drain -- 56.4% Defense enhancement.

    But my overall Ranged defense total in Mids' drops to 44.8.

    I know the HO gives defense enhancement, but it gives the power lower defense enhancement than that alternative -- why does my defense drop when it is removed and replaced with higher percentage defense enhancement? It doesn't appear recharge is affected...what am I missing?
    The HO is using its Defense Debuff attribute to enhance defense. Since they're technically not the same attribute, you get a 33% defense buff from one enhancement instead of 25.5% from a straight-up Defense IO.
  3. I heard from a very unreliable source that I20 will be the first crossover issue with the other superhero MMOs. It'll be horrendously buggy and serve almost no purpose except to tick off another box in the "things comic book superheroes do" column, but it'll be worth it. Mmmhmm.

    That was the first I thought as well.

  8. Play the market, acquire 1 billion inf in cash, take a screenshot to show us. Top hat, monocle and /e teabag not required, but definitely a plus.

    Same here. I could afford to buy one and money is easy to come by, but it seems to me an entire build is a far better investment than a single IO.
  10. I just finished A Game of Thrones recently and I've started on A Clash of Kings. So far I'm loving these books.

    It's funny, I always pictured Peter Dinklage playing Tyrion Lannister in my head, and when I saw that he was in fact going to portray Tyrion, my head exploded.
  11. Brutes: I Don't Wanna Stop - Ozzy Osbourne

    Scrappers: Indestructible - Disturbed (particularly appropriate for anything softcapped, especially DM/SD or Elec/SD)

    Blasters: The Trooper - Iron Maiden (captures the appropriate mindset; heading into a battle you can't possibly win with the intention of killing as many enemies as possible)

    If you need just one reason to install Steam, this is it. It comes but once a year, and each sale is more insane than the last. It's like Scrooge McDuck's pool filled with gold coins, only it's full of awesome deals.

    I hate the AH UI

    This, to me, is probably the most baffling part of the UI. Unless it's a bug, this leads us to a rather frightening conclusion: someone on the development team at some point in time thought this made sense.

    Obi-wan Caine

    I was actually thinking Michael Caine as Obi-Wan for a Star Wars reboot.
