I put 1 flight speed in Fly and in Hover and Afterburner for blasters I toss in kb ios for an 8 mag kb protection.

I had that problem on Justice last night.
All my toons were locked and when I tried to apply my two tokens to unlock a couple of them, it unlocked two empty slots instead of unlocking the characters.
Then the game froze.
I don't know if any other servers were affected.
When I reloaded the game, I logged into my VIP account.
I'll look at it again when I get home.
EDIT: nope, it says I have 18 slots with a popup just like it did in beta, only on Justice and no other servers. -

Have it bound. Sucks when the targetting recticle is red...red...red...red...oht here we go it's white and I can go ahead and teleport now.
The open animation really is suckie as well.
...however, whenever I play a flight or a teleport character, I find both to be very addictive and I keep trying to activate them with my bind to start moving, only to find out I am an idiot. -

Upon log in to Beta, my characters are locked as if I was Premium and I get the "Hey, you're Premium" pop-up. This happened after the make-everyone-a-premium-account test on Beta and has not reverted itself since. However, in every other way, the Beta server treats my account as VIP.

Yeah, I sent it to NCSoft support. Very strange.

Quote:Just use flight then - don't ask for a second power that is flight + phase shift and call it teleport - I find that silly.Originally Posted by Tenzhi
I much prefer invisaflight that I can instantly go into, precisely control, and then come out of without hovering in place for a second or two to invisaflight that only moves in imprecise straight lines with a somewhat annoying beginning animation and a lengthy bit of hovering in place afterwards. And it is just quick bursts of straight line flight in CoH. If you're paying attention to someone doing it who has a lot of power effects on them, you can even see the power effects streak off along the flight path.
Which brings me to another type of power that annoys me - click-n-stick powers. With many of them I wish I had the option to just fire the power off at whatever PC/NPC I'm targeting.
Now, this isn't you, but I have found most people that complain about our teleport just don't understand how easy simple and fast it is to just bind a key to the teleport power, such as the E key for example. -
Yeah the fiery embrace thing I found odd, but bruising is not listed on any tier 1 attack, because it is listed and described in your inherent power Gauntlet.

...anyone involved heavily in the beta test when they switched us all to premium/free players partway through ever log onto Justice and check their characters on live?
...because all of my characters are locked ONLY on the Justice server, and I am a VIP, been a VIP for nearly 7 yrs.
During beta it kept calling itself Justice so I figured they just copied the Justice server data at some point, but now all my characters are locked only on that server on live.
WEIRD. -
Actually I quoted you but the question was for Nyx.

In PvP I was fighting during a 2 vs 2. The Sonic on the other team would hit me with sonic cage. Just that one power made it 2 on 1. In PvE i can see some use, but mostly skipable. In PvP it can be a game changer.

Please leave the archetype forums alone! I spend 80% of my time in those when I am here.
I never go to the server forums though, do what you want with those. -
I would like the effect that Synapse gets when he uses superspeed, but the streak aura is kinda like it already.

Ok. Update on the funness of poison.
So I took poison trap. Poison trap was unfun! I know it was doing something. I mean...swirling toxic vapour! Neat little gadet thing! 2-6 damage over time per tick...
But thats all I could get it to do. So, it not contributing to my success or survival, I dropped it. Cuz now at 35 I get epic power pools. So, I took Dominate.
Dominate is reliable and keeps me alive better. It's hard to resist, it holds, and stacks with Paralytic Poison. It cant be blown up or accidently set off, and envenom...or weaken...one of em, boosts the hold! Yay!
Just hit level 42!
Just got Venomous Gas.
So...oddly It accepts SO's for -to hit, and - defense, but it says it ignores buffs! When you go to your manage screen you will see what it takes. Endurance Reduction, Recharge and the ones I mentioned before.
The little numbers that tell you the info of what the power does only shows Endurance cost, meaning you A) really don't need more than one slot in it? B) You can put sets in it! c) Or just put endurance reduction enhancers in it to keep it low endy
But the numbers just stay the same from what I can see. But it's still usefull. I put Achillis heal in it. Something that gives a chance for - res and a touch of Lady G chance for negative energy damage.
Overall Venomous gas is nifty. Although I wish I could color it. -

I have no idea... I didn't comment on those... and have never thought about that eventuality. I do support suggestions that they be made into a Toggle.
*rolls eyes*
That is rather different. You are speaking of many different powers as if they are all the same type of thing... which they are not.

That is actually a very clever use of Sonic Repulsion!

Quote:Look at the activation times compared to other sets. It's honestly in your head. It looks like you are doing crazy movements forever but it's just fast animation during what other sets do more slowly for roughly the same amount of time. It's an illusion, really.Originally Posted by Lost Ninja
Kinetic Melee - Animations feel far too long. It's like having a set with 9 shadow mauls in it, if they miss you spend all that time wiffing at the air.
In fact any power that has a long animation but no better accuracy/damage than a short animation power. And by animation I mean the length of time you are performing one power that prevents you from doing anything else. Kinetic Melee is IMO particularly bad for this. -
Quote:This is something I need to address. When people complain of powers that blind them, then you know they have their monitor out of whack, because the powers can only be as bright as the color white on their monitor, when they are reading most text from websites, for example.Originally Posted by DarkSideLeague
I don't notice Hasten - because I turned my particle count down to 100 because Super Speed BLINDS ME otherwise.

Teleport. It's animation is to long and is over all suckie. :/
I have one character who uses it, purely because of concept. I'd have given it to my main, but I just couldn't stand having another character with Teleport.
They should turn it into something akin to the original competitions version of teleport. -

Compared to the other time stuff that got fixed in beta, this is pretty minor. Like you though, I don't really understand how this didn't make it into an earlier patch.

I love these powers. I can't even begin to count how many times [Detention Field] has saved my bacon as a solo player on my Grav/FF... or how often it has made challenging content a breeze when I am duo-ing. A friend of mine and I took down all the the RV AVs (2 or 3 at a time) just the two of us... and it was made possible by me caging the AV we weren't fighting yet.
It doesn't really make any sense for it to be cold damage. The cold is not what is damaging anything... its the sharp and pointy things jutting out of your body. Have you ever noticed just how SHARP ice can be? Also, Ice Armor is in NO shortage of Slows, so adding one to that power doesn't make much sense either... [Chilling Embrace], anyone? -
Quote:Yeah I agree, but at least they have acknowledged it twice - Synapse told me he fixed it the instant I brought it up, but it never made it into the patches before live.Originally Posted by Oathbound
Yeah, really I fail to see why this didn't get fixed in one of the beta patches. I know it was brought up in the feedback/bug threads, cause I brought it up.
For such a (seemingly) simple fix* it really shouldn't be taking even this long to fix. -_-
*Standard Code Rant -
Fire/Poison or BR/Poison. Traps is right up there though, due to the regen debuffs.
I posted this elsewhere, but check it:
Envenom + Weaken + Venomous Gas + Disintegration + Piercing Beam + Assault + Scourge + Reactive Radial + procs
Truly going to be vicious against AVs. -
Quote:Very good answer with his limitations. I could see that to be a really good combo if you can stand the redraw. I think redraw complaints are overrated anyway.Originally Posted by Cobalt Azurean
Beam Rifle/Traps.
Cold isn't exactly endurance friendly and Heat Loss has HELLA LONG recharge in my opinion. I have a cold/ice defender at 50 and I ended up going with Cardiac at the end, but that could partially be due to not using any sets.
The new flavors of the month is probably BR/Traps and BR/Poison. Poison can be a little end hungry but really many of the secondaries can be.
