    I subbed for 6 months becausel I Lke the gaame.

    I just cant find anything to make me stick with one thing.

    I have a stalker, a Dom, a Widow, a Warshade, a controller who is scappy, and, and my defender.

    Part of my probem, stems fom being new, the other aspect is that Im used to playing classical healers (My own fault),,it just seems that the other folks are having a blast and Im just hanging out (But with cool boots)

    I hate to ask someone what I should play as my main....But I know that the widow fits me completely. Seriously...I love her...Alot.

    Right now, being frustrated, I will take any word of advice.
    It's not your AT, or your build, it's what you find enjoyable and fun.

    For the record, my main is an Empathy Defender. He'll be seven in April, and I've played him nonstop the entire time.

    Also, I'm too tired to riot anymore.

    Taking a look in the CoH launcher, they have info at the bottom of the pane about the strike pack and links to the site and forums. Couldn't they simply add one more sentence to the effect of "To learn which task/strike force(s) are the weekly strike target, click this link to view the updated announcement."?
    I'll wager that "a large majority of the playerbase" doesn't realize that the current and existing City of Heroes launcher has a message box that scrolls down, and often contains several messages. The other day there were three or four of them in there.

    The last time I attempted to use the NCSoft Launcher (lol), all it ever did was launch the regular City of Heroes launcher.

    I don't need a launcher for a launcher.

    They were yanking your chain man, I'm sorry too.

    The LRSF and STF are two of the most challenging TFs in the game, partly because of their overpowered and over-leveled overabundance of AVs. Mind you, the Reichsmann is also no pushover and has several unique HP gimmicks including "totally invincible, run you pathetic noobs."

    Since Sister Psyche's TF caps at 25, presumably the AV at the end of that (Clamor) will similarly be level 25 or higher...but more like 27 or 28, just because. She won't be 54.

    Be prepared.

    I take it back, I thought you were deliberately trolling.
    Protip: I don't call people liars, unless they're lying. Whoever told you everything was going to be +4 sucks. That person is your liar, not you.

    Does it amuse you, making believe your lies?

    EDIT: In the interest of peacemaking...are you telling me that they spawned at level 58 for you? I don't believe that. Are you telling me that they spawned at level 54? They do that: that's how the TF works. If you are in error I can understand your confusion...but you're not helping things.

    What he left out of his original post was that he had also run the same TF this week prior to taking those three steps. I don't think he was deliberately hiding anything, I just don't think it occured to him that anything he did prior to unlocking his alpha should have affected his qualifications for the NoTW after unlocking it. Were I in his situation, I don't know if it would have occurred to me, either.
    Wait.

    Firstly, no one is accusing him of hiding anything. What I'm saying is that he overlooked a ridiculously crucial step: he already earned the WTF rewards.

    If you don't see a difference between:

    Earning WTF rewards, then unlocking Incarnate abilities...vs. unlocking Incarnate abilities, then earning WTF rewards...then there isn't really any point in discussing this anymore.
  9. Holy crap, you guys are serious? Everyone in the Knights is quitting at the same time?

    They said they unlocked their alpha, slotted it, and ran the TF. In that order.

    Crazy me, I thought they did those things in that order.

    If you run the appropriate stuff, you get the rewards.

    If you want a billboard that says "Do missions for LR/Statesy and you'll get an orange fountain token," there isn't one.

I happen to be in IP going to the tailor and someone invited me to join... If I would have known, I would have unlocked the alpha first...
    Respectfully, that's not what you said in your first post. Or perhaps I made some assumptions, in which case as it's my fault. Either way, everything is working the way it is supposed to.

    Regardless, you would have still gotten double rewards for the WTF.
  13. It's like playing Russian Roulette with a book. Only the book has more than one bullet in it.
  14. ONLY SINCE LAST AUGUST. HAHAHAHAHA!

    ...

    Yeah, so anyways, sorry.

    I both love and hate it.
  16. No, you get all the WTF rewards in a lump, before the standard reward table pops. If you didn't get ANY, not the salvage, not the merits, and not the inf., then open your support ticket and see what they say. At this point, it's your only option. The game obviously thinks you've done it before.

    Did this happen before or after the hotfix?
  17. Wonderful demo edits. As usual, I see no reason why players cannot have access to those costumes. Shiny.

    The way we play to kill-all/most and only having 1.5 hours/week, I expect it will take us 2 weeks to finish the LGTF... which would be perfect if it is the week you end and not the week you do the whole thing.

    Guess we'll find out in a couple of weeks. hmmm... I wonder if I could ask a GM in-game, I may try.
    The reward stuff pops BEFORE the reward table pops. So it would seem like you'd have to at least save the last mission (Honoree) for the right week.
  19. Did you get the bonus merits the first time?

    Open a support ticket, but keep us updated.
  20. Haha, I didn't know that. Yes...will have to give this a try also.
  21. I've always operated on the concept that if I can't get on a team earning the badge within one week of the content going Live, there is probably a 75% chance that I'll never get the badge.

I mean, seriously, I can't be the only player willing to do this...
    You...would seriously pay $50 a pop for these things? And tiered? Like...hundreds of dollars? Jeebus.
