    What Colors....

    Well, I plan to change the colors on my inv/EM tanks attacks. I never objected to the "pink pom-poms of doom" but they don't match my costumes. My first costume was green/white, next was blue/white, then red/white, SG uniform is gold/white, then I made an outfit of Vanguard and Stealth armor that's also gold/white. I'm going to make the attacks pure white.

    Aside from that, I don't have any plans to CHANGE anyone. I'm used to the colors as they are and often design costumes to work with them. I will probably customize the colors on just about every NEW character, though.

    You just need to hang in there a bit longer. In my opinion, tanks pretty much suck until they can get SO's at level 22. When you slot SO's, the character is transformed.

    This isn't really universal, though. Resistance sets REALLY stink at low level, while defense sets aren't anywhere near as bad. Still, they all get a big boost to survivability with SO's.
  4. I would have had it on my SCRAPPER using Aid Other (which can't be done AFK). I started doing it with Aid Other before I had the Longbow Warden 2. I got the gladiator when I was up to about 6 million healed and started farming at that point.

    I have a level 50 emp who was my 3rd toon created but I did not log into him yesterday. I'll have to see where he's up to.
  5. Actually, we don't know that. Something catastrophic could cause the servers to be shut down tomorrow.

    Let's see, Issue 16 on 9/15. Then they said we'll be getting a Double XP Weekend to make up for all the connectivity issues during the last one. With the Halloween Event and Winter Event before the end of the year, I think we might get the next booster pack in November and the next issue no earlier than January.

  7. eh, I'll do them with you. I'm not in any hurry.
  8. Ironblade is the name of my first toon (BS/regen), first to hit 50 and my badge hunter.
    FYI, I did not steal the name from the Croatoa temp power. I was here before Croatoa.
  9. Unlike the button for a vet respec, the button to claim in-game items like the comic covers, trophy cases, etc does NOT go away after you claim the items. You can claim them repeatedly. If you wanted, you can wallpaper a room with one comic poster.

    So delete them with impunity.

    I'm getting hit by someone with a very high rep value, I suspect I know who it is, and I find it very rude. Once is enough, you've made your point, move on.
    I'd PM a mod. Obviously you won't be informed if they take action against anyone, but if you do have a whole string of -reps from a single person, I'm sure something will be done about it.

    Is Rage bugged?

    You can't. Perma or not is irrelevant.

    Well, since a safeguard against that was not built in from day one, it would need to be added. I guess whatever amount of AFK farming occurs, the devs don't see it as a big enough problem to prioritize a fix for it.

    Historically, scars were considered a badge of honor. And when I say "historically", I mean right up to the 20th century in some sub-cultures.

    In CoH, if you're never defeated, you're not facing tough enough challenges.

    I assume you actually mean SERVER (or 'local') friends list. When you try to add someone to your global list, it displays a pop-up window on their screen for their approval. You can't add someone to your global friends list without their agreement.

    Yep, just like a task/strike force. Goodies for all.

  18. I have an ice/SS and really don't worry about the Rage crash.

    raid telepad

    If you're asking, "Can I install my regular teleporters partially overlapping the raid teleporter so they look like one huge device?", the answer is yes. Just don't overlap them too much or you won't be able to click the right spots.

    Pets cheat on targeting. They can generally target any appearing enemy (zombie or Rikti invasions, for example) before the players can.

    In the case of the hazard zone guards, it appears near their groins. Let's not go there.

    Like its your fault that they say no to your team invites all the time,you know?

    When you work with things on your end to fix the problem,like the players suggest,they still say no.

    In the end,you arent the one at fault.Good luck trying to get them all to see it.Blood from a Stone type deal,you know?
    It's not a question of fault. Fault and blame are irrelevant. If the way you do things now is not working for you, or you are not enjoying it, do something different.

    It wasn't advice. It was a statement that the respec can be complete by a duo. I've done it. I'm flabbergasted that the team you list was unable to complete it.
