  1. You mean like this?



    "We are here at the City of Heroes Forums, where we've secretly replaced the fine Going Rogue information most everyone is waiting for with some fun contests and events for the month of February. Let's see if anyone can tell the difference!"

    I really didn't get that sense from this contest at all. It sounds like a wonderful activity. I think you're reading too much into it.
  3. Uh, I'll have to escalate that.


    Yeah, I thought so.

    Done Badging...

    Had to recount a few times, stupid Power Liberator. Congrats, that is very, very impressive.
  5. So...like a cross between the original reactor trial and Viridian's Invite the Center mission?
  6. BTW, CaptHitGuy, there is a thread about the Champions community abuse over in the Comics forum, which is about as off-topic as we get around here. I'm sure your unique perspective will be both appreciated and shared over there, too.

    As for GR being free... GR will not be free. However, Paragon Studios has a lengthy history of free updates that will not be changing any time soon, and the content for GR doesn't appear to have been completely finalized yet. (At least, to us outsiders.) Yes, there was some talk about one or two GR features (IE Ultra Mode) being freely released in an update...but don't sweat that--we don't know anything yet. Could be some news this week, though.

    Again, welcome back.
  7. That's why all those IOs are brown, probably.
  8. Once you get the Accolade, you have to log out for a while and let it charge up. With the dayjobs, you can earn "charges" before and after the badge awards--the Accolades are only after. (This is a simplified answer, but I think it may be what you are experiencing.)
  9. Which is where 504 hours comes from. It's not random, it's just 21 days * 24 hours/day.

    Greetings!

    Welcome to the big V.

    Petition filed. =(
    Ditto ditto. I just updated my ticket because I never even got a receipt in my e-mail. Looks like the bug finally bit me.
  12. I love the idea. I'm so tired of burning merits just to vendor piles and piles of Dark Watcher's Crap and Lady Grey's Chance for Poop.

    Agreed. That and undoing certain PvP changes. PvP on an Empath isn't very exciting when your heals do squat.

    Indeed. Complaining is just that, complaining. Its what you are doing too. And it achieves nothing.

    Theorizing about new features that excite us, and pining away for scraps of information is markedly different than stalking every thread to complain in it. You know who you are, you know exactly what we're talking about, and yet you still come in to deliberately complain.

    "Doctor, it hurts when I do this. Doctor, it hurts when I do this. Doctor, it hurts when I do this. Doctor, it hurts when I do this."

    So stop doing it.

    Amen. It's like driving into downtown Pittsburgh and complaining about all the black and gold.

    Yeah...I gave up in that first room. Thanks!

    EDIT: That is to say, the cavernous three-tier dungeon room crawling with Longbow. Not the awesome conference room, or any of the small corridors or junctions leading up to the cavernous three-tier dungeon room crawling with Longbow.

    Oh god, so I lucked out then. Or, as I said, I opted not to find out. I think I took the better route. Thanks!
  18. Dur, I worked so hard to get that post right and still ended up Cut-n-Pasting the wrong line. In any case, my crab uses backpack-only powers. Web Grenade is a gun power. What I was getting at, mostly, was eliminating redraw.

    HVAS power cores

    Nope. You could summon your HVAS and craft a new core for backup, but you can never have more than one core on you.
  21. How many Ballista?


    I like to solo on my VEAT, he's tough. But after sighting my eighth Ballista, I O-portaled out and dropped the mission. They were almost all +1, and the spawns were so close to each other that their bubbles overlapped.

    I was really looking forward to this arc, but how many of these are necessary?
