Okay, I'm massively poor redside so thinking about farming. I have a 50 fire/fire brute and 50 fire/thermal corruptor. Due to exclusively teaming and doing other people's missions, neither of them has done any 45-50 contacts except their patrons.
I imagine the brute would be better for farming. Whose missions would you recommend for 'classic' farming? -

Yes, I really do think Kanye deserves more taunting and mockery over this.

Well, there's your problem. In my opinion, most tank sets stink pretty bad until you can get SO's.Quote:About three days ago, I started another Tank up, a Invul/Super Strength Tank. Got him to level 15 then deleted him. 
And when I say "stink", I don't really mean that they're awful to play. They just aren't much like tanks yet. -
Well, I can't recall, but ParagonWiki says:
Quote:Several normally City of Villain only badges were available to heroes in this part of the event. Weed Whacker Badge, Coldblooded Badge, and two gladiators. These badges are for certain villain style Circle of Thorns enemies. When done right, Scratch's first mission gave heroes access to these enemies, and thus the badges. In order to spawn a map with City of Villain style Circle of Thorn enemies, a villain must be the first player to zone into the map. This flags the entire mission for City of Villain style enemies, and the rest of the team can then enter. The enemies necessary for the different badges spawn at different levels. Hordelings, for Coldblooded and one of the gladiators, spawn for lower level mission holders (levels 8-25), while Hellfrost and Succubi, for Weed Whacker, spawn at mid to high levels (25-40 or so). -
Quote:Okay, if we want to make special mention of where people go wrong - one of the top ones is the 'Rescue the Prisoner' mission from Maria Jenkins. Black Swan is on the map, but is not a mission objective and you can complete the mission without even seeing her.Originally Posted by The Grim Heaper
Although, be aware that there is one mission against AntiMatter (I believe) where he is scripted to teleport out, and doesn't count towards the badge... That has confused many a running tally that I've kept.

Quote:I think most of the supply and most of the influence are generated by 'hardcore' players who have not gone anywhere.Originally Posted by graystar_blaster
Now here is the question with less players means less farmin, pvpin, and random players. So where is the Money coming from.
I think the casual players generate more supply than influence but don't have a big impact either way. (Just my guess, but I would think that a casual player getting their first purple is likely to sell it rather than try to get the rest of the set.)
The fact that the trade window wasn't designed by idiots.Quote:Originally Posted by ClawsandEffect
You can accept a trade without putting anything up in the window, what's to stop a jackhole from putting the influence or recipe up in the window and then removing it before clicking "Accept"?
1. Both parties (or just one) put stuff in the trade window.
2. One person accepts the transaction and makes it available for the other to accept.
3. If *EITHER* party then changes their trade, it deactivates the accept button and the transaction starts over.
So the ploy that you describe simply does not work. -
Quote:On the other hand, some of us have built multiple systems with parts from NewEgg and never had a problem. I've used TigerDirect a couple of times and they were good also. Not familiar with Insight.Originally Posted by Reddi35
Wherever you buy your parts, I would recommend TigerDirect or Insight. Myself and others have had nothing but problems with NewEgg.

Sorry, digital technology is not subject to "technical tap" (see "percussive maintenance") the way older analog equipment is.

Liberator is the accomplishment badge for completing the Eden trial.

Quote:Wow, still looking for respect? Well, the internet ain't the place to look.Originally Posted by mad briar
My comments about the gameplayer are entirely valid and i expect peopel to respect them.
Okay, we respect that you won't be playing the game. This 'reason' is still bogus, though.Quote:I am not going to install the US client for reasons already explained. I don't care how easy it is. It WILL lag to the US because every connection that distant does.
Okay, then, I guess it's time to wrap this up and move on, isn't it?Quote:If no one is playing the game over here then that's too bad. It's not my fault the game has died in the UK, and given there are NO other players in the game it clearly has. I'm not waiting till 9pm every night on the off chance a bunch of players around my level will appear. What is needed is a busy server, and that isn't the case. There is nothing that anyone can show or do about any of these things. -

Has anyone else noticed this issue?
RAM usage gradually goes up and up and, somewhere between 1.3 and 1.4GB usage, CoH just goes splat when I do anything 'different' (opening Wentworth's, pulling up info on another player, or just zoning).
Oh, and when it started doing this, I ran my usual anti-virus and anti-malware, plus another anti-malware, plus I defragged and ran a registry cleaner. Performance overall seems better, but it still crashes after several hours of play when RAM usages exceeds 1.3GB. -

Hello this is the Ghost of Walt Disney introducing the one COH zone to please you all..... Disney goes Insane! We promise the Pirates of the Carribean will battle hord of disgusting smelly Viking (apologzes to our Nordic friends). Ninjas will battle Dinosaurs straight out of Jurrasic park all while attending High School on the new Moon Base! Heheh did I leave anyone out?

Actually, a dark defender is pretty good for soloing. I soloed most of the RWZ arcs on mine, including some where I had to fight two Vanguard bosses (sorcerers) at once, or the two automatons in the shard mission from Dark Watcher (as EB's, not AV's).
Having said that, you'll solo faster with a scrapper or brute. Blasters and corruptors are also very good for soloing since you won't be facing large groups (unless you up your difficulty settings). Just carry some Break Frees, in case you get mezzed. -
hmm... was that malice or was it snark?

Quote:I would agree if I had bought the pack just for that power. However, I would have bought that booster even if the Self Destruct was not included so I feel like I got a free bonus.Originally Posted by alexus_NA
I feel Self Destruct was a total waste of my $10. It doesn't do enough damage to justify using it.

Quote:Heck yeah, I use it.Originally Posted by JD_Gumby
1) Does anyone actually use this power for anything other than debtless hospital trips? I just can't see using it in combat - its long activation time means that, by the time a fight seems hopeless enough that you'll want to use it, you're likely to be dead before it goes off...
Firstly, once you have triggered the power it *WILL* go off and deal damage, even if you are killed before the explosion.
Second, once you have triggered the power, it counts as you defeating yourself and you get no debt - even if enemies kill you before the explosion.
Finally, if you have a self-rez, the power is quite useful. My fire/fire brute loves it. Charge in, throw some AoE, trigger Self Destruct before the enemy can kill him. Trigger Rise of the Phoenix immediately after the explosion. Not much lives through that. -
hm... tough call who to bring. My earth/rad is level 41, but I might bring Ironblade instead. At any rate, sign me up for team one.

Quote:FYI, zone load time is based on YOUR computer performance. The zones are not being loaded from NCSoft's computers to yours - they are being loaded from YOUR hard drive to YOUR memory, so upgrading your internet connection won't help. Adding more RAM to computer often will help, particularly if you have less than 2GB.Originally Posted by tiredofit
The load times for new zones etc seem to be getting much longer. I upgraded my internet connection to twice the speed but the improvement was not really great.

There are some incredibly obscure ones. I was on a TF and the leader advised it would go pretty quickly because they had a CS.
CS = Contact Sitter - a character who just sits at the contact for the ones that never give you a phone number. -
Quote:Respect? No one was disrespecting you. We're just warning you that you'll probably have some performance issues due to hardware.Originally Posted by mad briar
I'm aware my pc is old. I'm aware that i should upgrade it, but I would hope peopel respect that I don't have the knowledge or the money to do so, and I can't afford to buy a new machine either.
Generally speaking, when a game (or any other software) lists "minimum hardware requirements", you should read it as "the software will run, but you WILL notice performance issues". -
Quote:I see. The leader was a fool. That's your point, right?Originally Posted by Wicked_Wendy
When you ask the tank why he doesn't have Tant his reply is " Oh this is a concept build and Taunt just doesn't fut my idea for my character." ... I was on that team against Malta and the team leaders reply was .. "Yeah well a Tank that can't tank isn't part on MY concept either." and then he kicked the guy.
And if you think a tank without Taunt isn't able to tank.... Well, I can't say anything nice about that so I won't anything at all.
