    Yes. Which is why Base Storage won't effect the market because lazy players will just fill it up. At which point it becomes useless.

    *looks embarrassedly at Personal Vault Storage*

    Same.

    However from the point of view of the Suggestion, I bet you didn't notice those mistakes until much much later. So I really don't think unlimited respecs in Outbreak will do anything other than add one more complication.
  3. I should add that personally I have never run out of Recipe storage space.

    The reason for that is because my SG's Auto Doc is a multi-millionaire who buys any recipe I don't want. I think he gives them to Third World countries or something. He's one great robot our Auto Doc.

  4. Cool, this is why I started this thread. Lots of yummy opinions. Nom nom nom

    Haven't decided what to craft yet, but lots to think about. You guys rock!

    *rock hands*

    You've heard about email right?

    At this point there is absolutely no reason to prevent bases having extra storage other than it might reduce the numbers of people that buy extra slots from the Paragon Market.
  6. Yes, would love this.

    However the one area of the game that did not changed in the two years I was away, was bases

    Ever hopeful though

    If they put this is a "Base Pack" and charged me monies or paragon points, I would buy it in a flash!

  8. Okay, this time I haven't unlocked the slot yet. But I like to have an enhancement crafted ready and waiting for when I do. However the options this time seem less obvious.

    Ageless? Probably not.
    Barrier? +Def & +Res, whats not to like?
    Clarion? Hmmm, less interesting for me but maybe good for team? I could be interested in boosts to secondary effects if it allowed me to knock AVs off their feet?
    Rebirth? Again less interesting depending on the effectiveness of the +Max HP. Must admit I have not kept up to date on the new Tanker HP cap.

    As always, looking forward to your advice and experience
  9. I was surprised how quickly I was able to craft Lore Enhancements. I built the common Longbow enhancement before I unlocked the slot. Its always nice to have something ready to drop in straight away. But the I noticed I had enough "stuff" to craft straight up to the level shift.

    Is it the case that they are too easy to craft or that you are supposed to "catch them all"? Because I see myself craft quite a few in the future

    Cool, thats useful to know PLUS it means it wasn't my imagination

    Also: Thanks for the advice. This forum is the best!
  12. Resurrecting this thread because I have a couple of questions about the Sequestration Rings:

    1) How dangerous are they to squishes? I got kicked from a BAF the other night because I had 2 rings*.

    2) Do rings from Siege and Nightstar stack together? Because currently when I get 2 from 1, I swap to the other. Is that a reasonable strategy or just my imagination?

    3) If you get 3 rings is it worth popping breakfrees? Did so the other other night and could move, again could be imagination

    4) I think I get lesser rewards if I back off. I've done 5 BAFs and the time I got a Very Rare reward I had 2 rings most of the time. Is that selfish or being effective?





    * Actually thats not why I got kicked. I'd already moved back and the rings had faded when the Leader told me to move back, I responded "Ahead of you" only to find myself back in Pocket D. What a tool
  13. Whenever I do an Incarnate trial I always wonder just how many people actually see "League" text?

    Plus the last few trials I have done we have been waiting for someone to click the green button. Never a good sign I think
  14. The most important thing you need from a team mate in the TV Trial is good chat

    Its also the place where I find out most about my fellow CoH players. Last time I did it we chatted about the various places were are all from, scuba diving versus free diving and a whole host of other topics. It also became clear that the only reason anyone was doing it was because it was the weekly strike target. No one was doing it for "Fun".


    Personally I think they should make the trial more of a challenge again and just grant you a free respec when you get to level 25.

    Looks like he'd going to be tap-dancing.
    I thought the same, but they are definitely visible in the trailer

    Still, apart from the costume, I am liking the general direction of this version. Still, the last costume was great, why change it for this basket-ball-skin thing?

    Agreed. I had cancelled this comic once I knew they were planning on killing Peter. I hate "Death-of" comics. They are all awful.

    Not bothered by race changes though.

    /unsigned
    Agreed. Plus at that level the powers you chose don't really make much of a difference.
  18. I've run it once. We failed but I still found it interesting and intend to do it again.

    I had read up about it but still found it somewhat confusing. Next time I think I will at least have a clue

    Still not sure why we failed, timer? A more explicit fail message would have been nice.

    If Wolverine shows up in this, I officially quit comics. He has to be the most overused character in history.
    I love Castle.

    *puts on angry face*

    DONT MESS WITH MY CASTLE

    Ehm, sorry
  20. I assumed "bas" was a colloquialism, pronounced "baz".

    "Oh dear, that was baz"

    "Ouch, I just bazzing hurt my bazzing foot"

    In fact I am surprised that use of bas on the forums isn't replaced with PANCAKE!
  21. I am in two minds:

    1) it is a bit dull and used to be quite tough.

    2) its for people that need a /respec.

    3) its fairly easy to get respecs in other ways.

    Three minds, I'm in three minds
  22. I unlocked Lore last night. Yay! Plus I had already crafted a Longbow Nullifier to put in the slot. Double Yay! And I was even more excited to see we get the Pet Control Icons! Triple Yay!

    Anyway I was planning on going with Longbow purely for "concept", I've been told others do better damage. However I did wonder if there are any that work particularly well with Tanks or certain tank powersets?

    Your advice, always appreciated

    I am loving Reactive I've upgraded to 50%/25% and its great when soloing. I am still getting a kick out of it when I turn to that last member of the mob and he drops just before I punch him due to some tick of DoT

    Let the guys do what they do best and if you don't like the changes, sure you can voice that opinion but other then that, get over it.
    1) This is the forum provided by the Devs for us to comment on all things CoX.

    2) Pretty sure the Dev's want us to think this is our game.

    Rest of you, carry on!

    I don't buy that. Part of this revamp is to get rid of the robe because they don't work that well in the new or old game engine. This isn't a case of "Great now we can do what we always wanted" but "this isn't working, needs replacing."

    Unfortunately most of us would rather live with CoT with robes that stretch funny.

    If the Devs are going to do a Retcon they should discuss it with the player base well beforehand imo. Retcons are a special case.
