Golden_Ace

I PM'd the dev's with the following suggestion.

The Commands $level, $Archetype, & $origin are for self only they have no equivalent for Targeted binds

$Targetlevel, $TargetArchetype $Targetorigin or $Tlevel , $Tarchetype , & $Torigin

Basically I think it would be nice to have a bind that says “Congratulations to $Target for reaching level 41 ! You are one of the best Magic Blaster's I know!”

The $Tarchetype would come in handy in other ways.

I found $Target a Level 52 Arch Villain! (Monster, Elite Boss, Boss, Lieutenant, Minion etc...).

I think the suggested bind commands would be a nice addition, and long overdue. Comment's or Suggestions?

Teamed with Ms. Empithy, Bloodwynd, Golden Ratio (she was stalking me), Angelical, -switch, sorry forgot the names of twoof the team (it's late). The team rocked. Neuron was down in no time. Thanks all.

Wynd was a whirling factory of death. awsome to behold.

Wanted to explain the reasons for changing Burn...

It became apparent that Burn was the trump power...with it, a Tanker needed to do nothing else. He could lay down a Burn patch and Taunt foes in and out of it. The damage was so great that the Burn patch itself would do the defeating; the Tanker only needed to hit Taunt.

The question has come up - "what's the point of Burn now?" Well, it still offers Immobilization defense (we're actually going to increase that duration). And Burn does do a lot of damage. Taunt alone might not bring mobs into Burn continually, but stunning, holding, immobilizing mobs in Burn is just plain devastating.

Burn was the trump power. With I5 it is now useless.

If you find 3 ways to “fix” a power that you believe is overpowered anyone of the 3 “fixes” will work.
All 3 are implemented

AI Change.
Less damage
Longer recharge duration.
Effect only 10

Frankly the AI change alone with I5 were a killer for the power, now topped off with the other changes it’s pointless to take.

Taunt will not bring mobs back into burn at all. A stunned mob will wonder out of burn nearly as quick as a non-stunned mob will run out. As for holding, immobilizing mobs, your telling me I have to be a Fire/Ice Tank or have to have a controller running with me always.

That does help some.

I would suggest just labeling it the Status protection power for the set.

I finally met Pickle in game last night.

She was not at her best form (lying face down at portal corp, but it did take 5 giant monsters to do it). It was nice to see her finally.

I AM NOT FOR SALE, BARTER, RENT, LOAN, GIFT!


[/ QUOTE ]
Aw man now I can't even give you away.

Rent. Hmmm...

Ok, but Bloodwynd has raised the price, so I think it's only fair that that I get at least 2 SO's per "Rental".

Bill you messed up you should have gave the lucks when you had the chance.

What about the fear effect? With these changes it should be gone completely .

Hmmm... I'll have to bring the offer to Bill. But I thinkyou might have a deal.

GoldenAce, how many times do I have to tell you I am not for sale, nor am I your proplerty to barter with?

Goddess has made so much from the movies, buying her would be impossible. You have to dazzle her ace if you truly want her lol.

You misunderstand, I am not trying to “buy” her.

That question mark was at the end of the entire sentence that started with the word WHEN which last I checked denoted a question.

What WHEN?

But I think I understand why you protest so strongly. Your right, I’ll up the price. Bill (Light Bill) I need 5 luck inspirations or the deal is off.

A question mark? You mean your not sure?

hehe

Some of the Great people on Liberty I know.

Mamaho – a great friend to have always there when you need her. Although I have to admit I think she has a grudge against Golden Ace, She always finds someway to get him killed, she seems to like Golden Flame though (hasn’t killed him yet)

Kenneth Fury / Kenneth Rage – great to hunt with always there when you need him. (Usually the only ones in the zone)

Valeron – Great Girl fun to team with, she started me out on the wonderful world of binds and macros. She has some of the funniest binds. She always had me in stitches. (She had one where she would call me her Plucky Sidekick ) She helped Ace throughout the 20’s & 30’ and him get into his 40’s we teamed a lot back then, I miss her. (Val, where did you go?) Send me a tell.

The Goddess – sold her to Bill
Bill – owes me 3 luck inspirations and an old shoe for the sale to be final. Bill you cheapskate pay up!!

Irish_QT – someone else who likes to play late (Hawaii also). She likes to play later than me and rubs it in by saying she sleeps in until 11:00 Grrr (finally got a chance to team with her again, Ace and HawaiianQT were just in the teens the first time) Nice teaming with you again.

Shadow Sprite – Great lady to chat with. Wonderful person. Need to try and team with her more often. But hardly ever see her online.

SG Members

Elder Zap – a real pain in the a$$, but a great guy.
Delphina X – Elder’s GF, Great girl but obviously has a mental problem.
Brimstone Titan – always nice to team with.
(*) – she’s a great person and I love to team with her. (Her and Brim are now expecting, I’m hoping it’s a Fire Tank like his father). (Ace would be a good name Hint Hint) (oh the name was changed so Brim doesn’t get jealous).
Hayn – Someone who likes to stay up late like I do (lives here in Hawaii with me)

off hand i would say the following will work.

/bind LALT+T "Trade $Target"

never tried the bind myself but this should work.

This was easy (I just stole it from Blue_Drache)


/bind "enter" "afk <message here>$$startchat"
/bind "backspace" "afk <message here>$$autoreply"

Anytime guys. Don't hesitate to send me a tell if you have problems.

/bind T "team $target Acquired, Teleporting$$powexec_name recall friend"

For some reason the game does not like the quotation marks used in word. The quotation marks used in a text file seem to work ok. It appears that your macro was originally typed in Word.

/macro Nova "powexectoggleon Dark Nova$$goto_tray 5"
Text file "
/macro Nova “powexectoggleon Dark Nova$$goto_tray 5”
Word ”

See the difference?

Sorry I should have checked. I just copied your macros and corrected the underline.

Try this instead

/macro Nova “powexectoggleon Dark Nova$$goto_tray 5”

/macro Off “powexectoggleoff Dark Nova$$goto_tray 1”

you don't need the underline between the words

Unfortunately I can find no simple solution to your problem. Try this but I am not confident that it will work you will have to press the numpad1 key twice.

/bind numpad1 "unselect$$team_select 1$$powexec_name speedboost$$powexec_name increase density"

I am more confident on the following but it is a lot more work

Create two bind files called density, and speedboost

Speedboost.txt
numpad1 "unselect$$team_select 1$$powexec_name speedboost$$bind_load_file c:\binds\density.txt"
numpad2 "unselect$$team_select 2$$powexec_name speedboost$$bind_load_file c:\binds\density.txt"
numpad3 "unselect$$team_select 3$$powexec_name speedboost$$bind_load_file c:\binds\density.txt"
numpad4 "unselect$$team_select 4$$powexec_name speedboost$$bind_load_file c:\binds\density.txt"
numpad5 "unselect$$team_select 5$$powexec_name speedboost$$bind_load_file c:\binds\density.txt"
numpad6 "unselect$$team_select 6$$powexec_name speedboost$$bind_load_file c:\binds\density.txt"
numpad7 "unselect$$team_select 7$$powexec_name speedboost$$bind_load_file c:\binds\density.txt"
numpad8 "unselect$$team_select 8$$powexec_name speedboost$$bind_load_file c:\binds\density.txt"

density.txt
numpad1 "unselect$$team_select 1$$powexec_name increase density$$bind_load_file c:\binds\speedboost.txt"
numpad2 "unselect$$team_select 2$$powexec_name increase density$$bind_load_file c:\binds\speedboost.txt"
numpad3 "unselect$$team_select 3$$powexec_name increase density$$bind_load_file c:\binds\speedboost.txt"
numpad4 "unselect$$team_select 4$$powexec_name increase density$$bind_load_file c:\binds\speedboost.txt"
numpad5 "unselect$$team_select 5$$powexec_name increase density$$bind_load_file c:\binds\speedboost.txt"
numpad6 "unselect$$team_select 6$$powexec_name increase density$$bind_load_file c:\binds\speedboost.txt"
numpad7 "unselect$$team_select 7$$powexec_name increase density$$bind_load_file c:\binds\speedboost.txt"
numpad8 "unselect$$team_select 8$$powexec_name increase density$$bind_load_file c:\binds\speedboost.txt"

your will still have to press the key twice

In answer to your second question yes you can make a new bind over the top of an old one.

It occurs to me (because of the second question) that you might not know how to create a keybinds file.

First you already have one called Keybinds.txt search for it on your C drive.
Then make a directory called binds off your C drive (c:\binds)
I would then copy the keybinds.txt to the binds directory
Change the name of the keybinds.txt to Speedboost.txt

Edit your new text file with notepad the end of the file should look like this.

LALT "+alttray"
M "map"
MBUTTON "+camrotate"
MOUSEWHEEL "+camdistadjust"
N "nav"
P "powers"
PAGEDOWN "camreset"
PAGEUP "+camrotate"
Q "+turnleft"
R "++autorun"
RALT "alttraysticky"
RBUTTON "+mouse_look"
S "+backward"
SPACE "+up"
SYSRQ "screenshot"
T "target"
TAB "target_enemy_next"
CTRL+TAB "target_enemy_near"
SHIFT+TAB "target_enemy_prev"
W "+forward"
X "+down"
Z "powexec_abort"

Add the numpad changes right after the N "nav"

It should look like this when your done

LALT "+alttray"
M "map"
MBUTTON "+camrotate"
MOUSEWHEEL "+camdistadjust"
N "nav"
numpad1 "unselect$$team_select 1$$powexec_name speedboost$$bind_load_file c:\binds\density.txt"
numpad2 "unselect$$team_select 2$$powexec_name speedboost$$bind_load_file c:\binds\density.txt"
numpad3 "unselect$$team_select 3$$powexec_name speedboost$$bind_load_file c:\binds\density.txt"
numpad4 "unselect$$team_select 4$$powexec_name speedboost$$bind_load_file c:\binds\density.txt"
numpad5 "unselect$$team_select 5$$powexec_name speedboost$$bind_load_file c:\binds\density.txt"
numpad6 "unselect$$team_select 6$$powexec_name speedboost$$bind_load_file c:\binds\density.txt"
numpad7 "unselect$$team_select 7$$powexec_name speedboost$$bind_load_file c:\binds\density.txt"
numpad8 "unselect$$team_select 8$$powexec_name speedboost$$bind_load_file c:\binds\density.txt"
P "powers"
PAGEDOWN "camreset"
PAGEUP "+camrotate"
Q "+turnleft"
R "++autorun"
RALT "alttraysticky"
RBUTTON "+mouse_look"
S "+backward"
SPACE "+up"
SYSRQ "screenshot"
T "target"
TAB "target_enemy_next"
CTRL+TAB "target_enemy_near"
SHIFT+TAB "target_enemy_prev"
W "+forward"
X "+down"
Z "powexec_abort"

Save your file and make a copy of it called Density.txt
Then replace all the numpads with the density ones. Save file.

Enter the game and type out
/bind_load_file c:\binds\Speedboost.txt

This should get you started on the wonderful world of binds good luck.

Hope it helped

I do not believe that pauses are possible in a bind. However try this, your text prints out into two bubbles giving the appearance of a pause or at least a break in your speech.

/bind 1 “local Target Acquired ‘$target’ Charging Canon!$$local Canon Charged Fire!$$powexec_name Lightning bolt”

Sorry best I could do. You can change the name of the power from lightning bolt to whatever you need. Every time you press the one “1” key this would say in local (if your target was Statesman)

Target Acquired ‘Statesman’ Charging Canon!
Canon Charged Fire! (would "Firing" be better?)

Followed by the activation of Lightning bolt

You might want to try this also (if whatever blast you have has a longer animation time, not sure it really matters because it will all happen simultaneously)

/bind 1 “powexec_name Lightning bolt$$local Target Acquired ‘$target’ Charging Canon!$$local Canon Charged Fire!”

Good Luck and have fun

Sorry read somewhere that Blasters were the King's of ranged damage.
I wanted to play a Blaster not a Scrapper.

On a side not the tactics worked fine up until I hit the 30’s

never got within melee range. I kept my distance.
