I did duel a claw regen scrapper on my dark/dark corrupter in Sirens a couple of years ago - the only bars with significant movement were our end bars - in the end I gave up trying to hurt him and started throwing snowballs at him whilst he kept swinging away at open air.

Or there was a couple of times in on my Mind 'troller - one in BB - sudenly see those dreaded words ASSASSIN STRIKE only to find I'd just lost about a third of my health, healed up and a couple of minutes later he tried again with the same effect, the third time he did it I had got bored so got my hold off on him and showed him the way back to the hospital. - You have to love minimum level unslotted AS.

Or there was the one in Sirens iirc when a bubbler comes out of the hospital, sees two heroes standing at the villains weapons table, spends the time to apply all his defensive bubbles then attacks - only to find those defenses are totally useless when facing two mind 'trollers.

I suppose they could go for an invisible non combat pet - wait a minute that's what we get now.

You mean - you haven't been in the Vanguard against the Rikti? It won't help Paragon if that power plant goes up.

Just out of interesnt, how much rep do you get per kill when solo?

[/ QUOTE ]

All of it - the exact amount depends on the targets rep but starts at 1 if they have none.

I'd be interested on Deadly - almost at that all important one for the Accolade but still want the rest after it as well

Reminds me of playing on my scrapper after finishing getting Raver throwing out Call of the Wolf and wondering why a taunt was one shotting the mobs. Then I checked and realised I had Chance for Psi proc slotted so you see even Taunt isn't immume to this effect.

It is paradoxical that the PPD seem to be propping up walls and yet the RIP seem to actually be on the job. Could it be that the civvies of Paragon have nothing worth taking?

[/ QUOTE ]

I think it may have something to do with the bri oops sorry incentive scheme the RIP use.

ive recently made an AR/Dark corruptor...he is lvl 13 atm...
will it be possible to solo AVs?

[/ QUOTE ]
Somehow I don't see that happening... like... at all.

[/ QUOTE ]

Depends how grey you let the AV go before trying it.

Whenever I see the 'mo blinds tab' I know the person is rude and arrogant so I just don't invite.

[/ QUOTE ]

This being the point in question. If they are saying they don't want blind invites they are informing you how they wish to be treated - ignoring those wishes is the arrogant and rude action. What you're statement indicates is that you are judgemental. At least though you show the common decency to not send blinds anyway.
The big problem with blinds is they put a great big intrusive dialog up in the middle of your screen which may mean the difference between surviving a mob and having a trip to the nearest hospital. They may also be expecting an invite from someone else and so end up missing the team they intended joining. In contract a tell allows you to let people know what you are doing and so they can then make an informed decision as to whether they want to join. Its also something that they can delay responding to if circumstances dictate.

Think of it this way - if some stranger barged into your living room, interupting what you are doing and said "Join Us" without telling you why or who they are and wouldn't go away until you stop whatever you are doing and tell them what you want to do - What would your response be - I'd bet it wouldn't be anywhere near as polite as even the most curt responce you get in game.

Sounds spot on to me Leese!, welldone! *applauds.

Which reminds me: What did the papa buffalo say to the baby buffalo before he went to work?

Moo-ving on

Somone had to say it - sorry

its worth it for the fun of 1 shotting Dr Vahz on a defender as well.

They do eventually drop from that top spot if that happens although it can take several months. But getting a new SG into the top 100 can be done in a couple of months if they are active, then the next 50 or so places are very quick to gain, the to 10 or so on Union are very active and trying to make sure they keep those places which is why you don't see frequent changes in rankings. They do change though but generally over the course of months.

I've even found a nice group in Atlas in the past - 3 mortificators means the embalmed keeps getting up and so it can be gained faster than hunting them even than in Perez or Faultline. A few in Kings Row as well.

Villainside your looking at Cap Au Diable - can't think of anywhere else outside mishes.

Badges which were intended to be available only to one side were those that cannot be obtained from enemy mobs available in the zones for that side or from the missions granted from that side's contacts.
Longbow are an enemy mob in some missions available to heroes so in my view this should be available. I could see an argument for disallowing defeats gained whilst confused but that would just mean developer time being taken up for little purpose.

It was released as download only so I doubt if there's a boxed version coming out soon.

What screen res are you using and does this match your desktop setting? - your card won't hold up well to running at 1800x1440 but shouldn't have problems at 1280x800.
If you are using a flat screen are you running at the screens native resolution - there is a performance penalty if not - note this does not apply to CRTs.

If you look at a plain wall do you see a significant increase in frame rate? - if you don't its probably not graphics lag.

Do you see a significant difference between first person mode and third person mode (B key toggles between them by default)? This would indicate an issue probably relating to your costume/power auras.

Its not that bad at very low levels either - lvl 6 having picked up Mind Probe I found I was outdamaging the Brute I was teamed with. and Psi Dart is very fast charging so excellent for building Domination. The damage after about lvl 10 doesn't tend to scale well but the damage mitigation is excellent and you are very capable of soloing on Relentless safely, albeit slowly before hitting level 20.
Watch out when you get a team and they try your mishes though as most others won't be used to fighting purples at that level.
As has been said already once you get PSW everything changes again especially when you remember your regen/recovery will have been putting any regen scrapper to shame for several levels by then.

Also don't forget to factor in all the damage your pets do before you finish killing them all - remember you get them just as soon as you pick up Confuse

Iirc when I went down there looking for it (with vidiotmap overlay) the plaque was invisible - I got it by randomly clicking the area where it should have been lol! Honestly - why would someone put a plaque in an abandoned sewer system??? lol

[/ QUOTE ]

I suspect it probably wasn't abandoned when they put it there.

I think it was about a year ago that they dredged the plaque out of the slime and put it back on the wall.
You could still click it then but it was a nightmare to find - a lot easier now.

You mean like a greyhound track - I guess that would redirect BlueRabbit's nukes - he'd have to save the hare now wouldn't he

The only type of attack that needs a seperate set of defense is Psi, all other attacks are considered to have a component of one of the above (Ranged-Lethal, Melee-Energy etc.) whereas Psi is often just listed as Psi...no melee, ranged or AoE component.


[/ QUOTE ]

Not acording to the mids'. Psi attacks from mind and psychic sets all have positions.

[/ QUOTE ]

Thorn Assualt has Thorn Barage which is positional type Close and as its toxic that combination makes it particularly effective.

Don't forget also Mids isn't official although bugs in it are fixed quickly when they are reported.

[ QUOTE ]
Out of curiosity, are there any DEF (All Positional) powers? I know there's some that do both, too, but unsure about only positional in specific.

[/ QUOTE ]

With the recent changes where positional defence was added to powers giving damage typed defence - probably any def(all) will now protect from the three main positional types

[ QUOTE ]

I think it would be more accurate to list these as DEF(All Typed) instead of DEF(All).

Or am I getting the wrong end of the stick?

[/ QUOTE ]

Its actually worse than that as iirc most def (all) powers don't protect vs Toxic either. That was originally not available to players and so was untyped damage hence there being no Def (toxic) in the game.

Its a problem with the Nvidia drivers - not helped as they fail to properly uninstall the old one when updates are applied. The latest ones aren't too bad but you need to rollback a few versions to get a fully stable one. There are several other threads on it which will state the stable version.
The version after that gave problems with many games not just CoX
You want to make sure you fully uninstall the current drivers and then install the stable version - don't rely on NVidia's installer to do it properly.

Yes
If you sign up at least

Combat stats give no positional for Psi Assault - at least for Doms - the power description says ranged but the detailed stats don't.
Mind Control however all have positional tags.
