  1. The emotes are also 'interesting' on a stone tank running Granite.

    Yeah, some people think it's cute to be in the cutscene, even if it might screw over the entire team. I was on a Lambda today where the MM had to be in the cutscene with his pets. After the cutscene, Marauder aggroed on the pets as the MM ran back to the team and caused several people to die within seconds.

    We're just lucky the bonehead wasn't standing a bit further back or Marauder might have run out the door after the pets and caused the trial to fail.

    Yeah, but that's hardly unique to post count. Forum drama queens will always find something.

    Right. And we all know that because one person can't reproduce a problem, that means it doesn't exist.
  5. Woo hoo! I'm not a cheesehead so I qualify!

    Players can't? I haven't tried but, if you move your camera off to the side, you can easily teleport to areas your character can't see. Also, you can easily teleport to areas you can't physically reach, like under the floor in the Terra Volta reactor chamber.
  7. I have never slotted taunt enhancements in an 'attack'. I put it in quotes because I did slot taunt in Energy Absorption on my ice tank - I wanted a little extra AoE aggro-gathering since he is my only tank who skipped the Taunt power.

    I doubt anyone would even ask. I have plenty of toons with a power they don't use that they took to get to a later power in the set. Also, plenty of people take powers just to slot IO sets.
  9. I think that line is a reaction to missions you have done recently, like the ones where they've heard you're working with a particular contact or fighting a certain enemy group lately.
  10. Okay, we're steadily working our way upward in level with the Imperious TF last week and Numina before that. Next up: the Abandoned Sewer Trial AKA the hydra trial.

    When: Saturday, June 18 at 1 PM EDT
    Where: Atlas Park

    Completing the trial gives the Charmer badge. Also, there is an exploration badge in the final room (Head of the Hydra). Minimum level to join is 38 and anyone above 40 will be auto-exemped to 40. The contact is Maren MacGregor and she located in Atlas Park, near the sewer entrance. The trial consists of a hunt and a timed mission (90 minutes) so it's not long.

    1. Ironblade - bringing somebody
    2. Ad Astra - bringing somebody else
    3. GATE-keeper - bringing "somebody" (tm)
    4. Doctor A Science - Doctor A Science IV
    5. Ms. Mesmer - Manacle (tank - OMG, someone actually specified an AT!)
    6. starphoenix - Infinity Comedy

  11. eh, you need to send it by some method that makes it seem like you're being secretive about it.

    You never saw that one? It goes something like:
    "So, my cousin was telling... NEMESIS IS WATCHING YOU, SMASH ZONE... me about a great new shop at the mall."

    The random banter that gets me is when the newspaper seller starts talking about Ouroboros or the Midnighter Club.

    "hmm.... Looks like we need to abduct this guy and beat him severely to find out how much he knows."

    This is the part we're having trouble grasping.
    In what way, shape or form is this an "evil"?

    It's like if you wanted to be able to level up without earning any inf. The game simply doesn't work that way, it never has, and none of us understand how this can be considered as a negative.

    Sure, easy for the Forum Cartel to say.

    SG ranks

    That leaves just one rank as Leader and that seems to be the Super Leader? My question is, if I promote the other Leaders that are a tier below that Super Leader mark,
    Okay, if I'm reading this correctly, you want:
    1 rank at the bottom for newbs
    4 ranks for RP purposes
    1 rank for the 'real' leaders with multiple people at this rank

    Not possible. The highest rank is Super Leader and, just like in Highlander, there can be only one. If you promote someone to Super Leader, you automatically demote yourself in the process. The previous system allowed multiple people at the highest rank. The new system does not permit this.

    Since you are asking for technical assistance, that would be the recommended course.

    Since this isn't a forum for official technical or QA support, it merely seems as if you are trying to blow your own horn by offering to help them solve the problem.
    Sometimes the forum cop routine serves a purpose, like when someone is actually breaking rules and might induce others to unknowingly doing the same.

    Not really seeing the point in your posts, though.

    I would say that was a bug that got fixed. They used to say a lot of different things, then most of them changed to that generic line, now they are saying varied things again.

    My badge hunter has gone completely around the alignment 'wheel' THREE TIMES. I did not lose any badges along the way.

    So, you mean they nerfed it.

    Also: please do not use the term nerf when addressing a rebalance, the fixing of an exploit, or the elimination of a bug.
    Some fixes are nerfs. Some are not.
  21. (shrug) It looks even more like a Stargate. It's been done lots of times.
  22. It is auto-hit on your target in PvE, but not against AVs and GMs.
    I don't recall if the 'splash targets' are also auto-hit.

    The old one has everyone but Anti-Matter. So you also needed Tina McIntyre's arc (keeping in mind that the first appearance of A-M didn't count since he teleports away).

    Is this some kind of coded message telling us that Freitag and Zwillinger are the same person?
  25. Is it the dead part or the goat part that you don't trust?
    Would you trust a live goat?
    Would you trust a dead wildebeest?
