    The Mid's team have previously stated they like to reflect what is actually on live, bugs and all, even if it's not WAI. So they will likely have changed it to match live.

    I hate seeing this... Flyers can still fly, Speedsters can still speed and Jumpers can still jump but my poor TPers have to run out.

    One one of the clone missions redside you have to get out of a burning building and it took ages for me to try and figure out why I couldn't TP across the room on my MM. I like TP, it's fun. Please find a way to supress recall friend et al without supressing self TP!

THAT is the sort of backdrop of super powers that gives gravity to the special TFs where everything is so difficult it's almost unfair. You can think to yourself "Holy ****! I was able to take a tank shell to the face without flinching and that guy just backhanded me through three buildings! His power level must be over 9000!!!"
    Poor writing for the sequal to a brilliant story. Was very dissapointed by TFU2 and it's brevity.

    However, on your other points, I agree. I want to say this is just the start, I'm sure they'll put some in... but I'm not. I hope they will. It would be a bit disapointed if all we got to do was TF's at this power level.

    I thought that was you explaining about Cole's hack to the system and why them stealing it was a bad idea. I've only done this once so I could have misunderstood it.

    The 'nope' above is because without slotting a single power outside of conductive aura for end drain I wipe entire spawns clean of endurance.

    It is a soft control set, but a set with so much soft control that the targets are locked in pretty hard - I often skip using my true holds because they just aren't needed.
    I've got one to about 16 so far and love it. First Dom, but already draining any foes silly enough to come into range. Much fun to be had really.

    Make an Temp or Accolade power called "Alpha Slot" and give it one enhancement slot. Musculature, Cardiac, Nerve and Spiritual, are more like enhancement categories. Like Damage, Endurance, Accuracy, and Recharge. Think of them like IO sets, or Hami O's. Make it a global enhancement like the 7.5% Recharge proc that will be applied to all of your powers. How you code that I have no idea, I don't even know what scripting language Mids uses, C++ or something else? I am not a programmer. You may want to disregard my entire response lol.
    That wouldn't work cos the Alpha slot doesn't work as a global bonus but rather as a bonus to powers that can take enhancements of that type. So a recharge alpha wouldn't apply to Domination for example.

    Good God... is it only if you have an acount with this specific game or any NCSoft game? I only have CoH but this makes me very concerned.

    I cant seem to make it back to where it was. Am I missing something in my firefox controls?
    CoX installing messed up firefox? Sounds fishy to me. Sounds like something autoinstalled at the same time.
  11. I recall Mother's Love having similar issues doing T-shirts a year or so ago. Not sure what the actual ruling what but pretty sure it ended with him stopping them for the most part.
  12. Sorry, I can't agree. Recently there have been some good new arcs come out. Dopplegangers... we get an arc each side dealing with them as well as the new Posi Pt 1. I've only played the new hero Arc, but it was pretty epic and required no teaming or TF to finish the story, which included an epic battle on top a burning structure. And all of Preatoria... not a TF in site.

    Sure, some stuff does require a TF to close it out, but recently the Dev's have seem to have been going away from that. The 2 new ones... you are battling an invasion... makes sense you should grab some mates for that. I wouldn't be surprised if we see some arcs introduced eventually for the incarnates amoungst us, but I feel you are overstating the problem.

    I wish you luck with this, I really do. I hope someone is nicer than me and can help you.

    Might pay if you could clarify for us what you are using. I automatically assume a PC if people don't specify and the instructions above work for PC's.

    The clients are the same, although sometimes there is a difference in the times to patch. It's the same process as setting up the test server. Renaming the patcher exe DOES work, for some reason.

    If it's not working you'll need to provide more information.

    Third Build Woes

While that may work fine for you at level 50, you could end up with issues when you exemplar down and are not under the effect of your alpha slot anywmore. That's why the 3rd build is there, so you can have your customized Incarnate build, and still have your standard build while Exemplaring, and the 3rd slot for whatever you used it for before, be it PvP or Solo play, etc..

    In the end, you can use all 3 for whatever you want, but that was their apparent intention.
    That was my understanding too.

    Though thank you for starting a new meme.
    That would be Colin, but it's exactly who I was thinking too. Maybe thats not a bald head but a solar panel for a sex machine.

    In a way I can see some merit...and also a huge pain sans le derriere. So, yeah, lose it again please.
    If it's done that I'm going to enjoy leaving blind invites open while I'm shopping.

    This makes more sense for how they should have done it.

    Now I have to use two 'auto-completes' to get this Arc done solo, because even the Weakened Honoree is totally broken against defenders and corruptors.

    Yeah, that make me feel like I'm becoming an incarnate...
    Ummm, no you won't, because, unless they change it, Trapdoor is not autocompletable.

    I echo what everyone else says, silly change. I didn't have any trouble with him, but silly none the less.
