Why is Miss Liberty listed as a Praetorian?

Quote:Part of it was from all the "can't attack till I'm hidden" stalkers that didn't keep up with steam rolling teams. Just because stalkers could contribute meaningfully doesn't mean they were. I myself have kicked stalkers off the team for repeatedly running out of combat so they could regain hidden status.Because it doesn't take Arcana to calculate a Stalker was contributing plenty fine on a team. Period.
All that other mess about being a black sheep or getting a pity spot? Malarky. Maybe true before the 1st round of adds to the AT. But you're only trying to paint Stalker's situation in a way to justify overpowering them. You don't have to do that. They got their buff, no point in back pedaling and trying to prove Stalkers weren't worth sh*t so people will think Stalkers deserved what they got more.
Hell, the whole crusade before the buff was to get *rid* of the stigma that Stalkers were bad, a stigma they lived with since their inception. Stalkers do not deserve that stigma after they got demoralize, a base crit chance, a scaling crit chance and more HP. Yes, the stigma was there but it was *NOT* deserved at that point. -
The red box is kinda like the blue box but not nearly as expansive on the inside...more like a small townhouse. It is also resident to Praetorias mysterious visitor know only as The Physician.

Man it'd be awesome to get alt animations for all weapon sets. Then two people using the same moves would look like they had two different fighting styles even though mechanically its exactly the same.
----edit-----
Omg I want a flashy over the top animation set for maces so I can make a mallet wielding cartoon super. -
Quote:...hmmm bring range down from 150 to 95 (120 for assault rifle) for defiance snipe and I see no issue with this.A possible idea came to me about Snipes. Mostly for Blasters though, annoyingly, taking inspiration in kind from Assassin's Focus
Using them with no Defiance damage boost present gives it its current firing animation time along with a Sniper's Shot damage proc matching the type of snipe used.
Using them with a Defiance damage boost present does superior damage with a much shorter cast time with no interupt.
So, if you're about to attack a group of Malta and want that Sapper taken down? Build Up/Aim (If Available) and Snipe for the Sniper's Shot Bonus to take them out of the fight.
If fighting a boss or elite boss or something, using them after other attacks gives you a further quick burst of damage.
--edit--
If it's reasonably possible in the engine to treat snipes like this. -
Quote:Not reallyThat's like Batman asking the Riddler to explain one of his clues mate.
She said "from the rumored power list it is not medicine"
He said "Well I'm not wasting money on medicine redux!"
She said "I said it's not medicine redux..."
Simple easy conversation... -
Quote:I'm pretty sure I didn't mention raw performance let me check....nope only mentioned lowest use.It's not just a matter of raw performance, otherwise we'll just play City of Warshades. Or City of Illusion/Radiation Controllers. It's more a matter of making a set more desiderable to play by adding something unique to it, if you ask me.
After playing 50 lvls of a WM scrapper, I'm not going to ride the same road, more or less, with a BA scrapper. Just an example. -
Here's the thing. If a set IS under preforming it does get revamped. It's one of the things the developers constantly keep an eye on, what sets are showing lowest use numbers, by how much. Whenever a set is buffed they also try to avoid breaking the theme of the set if possible.

I find magic much more believable then aliens who fly because of sunlight.

I can't P.M. until we get cash on the accounts again.
Oh man that would be awesome. Yes let the winner do that! Free comics for V.I.P.s! -
Does anyone make really good Parabolic Monitors?
-edit-
HEY! That's not a job application!
Get back on that Allied Barton site! -

I'd get both the family accounts back up to V.I.P., clear the market of all one time purchase items (both accounts), and have Mr. NoPants get some of those no moving parts drives he's always babbling about.

Quote:What you mean your mainframes don't have treads, cannons,a nd armor plating? How do you protect your data?Yeah I noticed that too.
Also lots of the "info" for the mobs were missing and or just plain wrong. The text for the Reviled Rularuu was wrong too (forgot what the text in there was for though now).
The Tank info text was wrong too....
These need to be beta tested because...lots of typos/textual errors
Yes I know you don't want "spoilers" to come out...but...*shrugs* -
Quote:Oh man if only we had a map function in this game that they sometimes used to show us objectives...hehe yeah I can see that too
But one last point before work...
In the mission where you go to the Shadow Shard and have to 'rescue' Scirocco....
Why can't we target him?! GRRR....
When I entered the mission I did my keybind, "/bind e targetcustomnext Sci" and went all over the map (and inside the ball/chantry) and never got a hit.
So I went around again trying to stay low to the ground (was SJ'ing around last time)....
Then finally saw him when I entered the Chantry/ball on the left side....
GRRR....really?! -
Quote:Marketing only seems to go into full swing for this game when numbers start to drop. Whenever we are stable or between projects designed to boost the population they seem to focus more on retainment then recruitment.Or "not" marketed depending on the the various issues, as you noted above.
Marketing for CoH has always been a little schizo. But this highlighted it will strobing, neon-pink, billion-candle lamps while a fleet of town criers took to the streets in PA-mobiles screaming "WE...ARE...SCHIZO!" before kicking a hospital full of shrinks into the pit of despair.
Hyperbolic?
Yeah.
But it paints the right mental picture about how bizzare CoH's marketing has been, especially lately. -
