Quote:All the codes are for the same power, Coralax Costume. If you apply more than one, you get nothing for the second.Originally Posted by Rajani Isa
So apparently I did manage to get two (was wondering if the timeout, at first, was a reaction to it being taken as I use it) but only one shows up in my powers list as of an hour or so ago and I've two codes listed in my account (one listed 3-4 times. -
I did not know it was POSSIBLE to get 2 Incarnate Shards from a single mob... but, here you go:
-
The very last one I had left to try (HC6P4-JWL9D-NTD7V-UH2W7, above the guy's hat in black) worked. Funny, I didn't try that one first because it was too clear and unflipped, so I figured everybody would go for that one first. I guess everybody thought the same thing and went for the flipped/rotated ones!

Quote:They can't. The moment they apply the code to their account, is locked there forever.Originally Posted by Mandu
So if any of you lucky code getters (who got the code while I was slaving away at work) would like to just randomly give one to me I would be very appreciative though I have nothing more to give you than my thanks.

Quote:Yes. I am usually the only Controller in the Tanks team so the Tanks can get credit for the Mending Mitos, and likewise the Controller team has a token Melee character so they get credit for the Mito Antibodies.Originally Posted by Lady Arete
Like in the Mothership raids, if one player targets a rikti and does something to it, the entire team gets credit. Is this the same for the Mitos?

Quote:If you read the rest of the thread, you'll see the sample size is up to 500 kills now.Originally Posted by Santorican
That's too small of an amount of kills to state that the drop rate his higher.

Quote:The channel name is "Essence of the Earth", but it's invite-only in an attempt to keep leechers out. So, PM me for an invite.Originally Posted by littletinyfish
I'm on Freedom. I was looking for a Hamidon thread but didn't see any, so I tried this one. I'll look for the global channel though.

Quote:Certain friends of mine would expand the previous statement to imply that said program is running in the computer that resides inside my cranium. Because I am apparently a robot, I just don't know it.
Leandro has developed a program that auto-plays City of Heroes, but not in a mining/farm way. It's formed its own RP guild and is currently editing the Virtueverse to reconcile its presence with that of the Artful Dodgers.
Edit: according to one of them: That's about it. You've been programmed to not know you're a robot. You already have goals of world domination, and your creators fear what will happen when they realize you can take over all governments computer systems from inside your head. -
Quote:If you're on the Freedom server, shoot a tell to @Leandro; we have a global channel to put them together. Going to the board for your server and asking there would be a good idea.Originally Posted by littletinyfish
I've never been on a Hamidon raid. What's the best way to join? Just show up? Or are there specific times that I should be "in game?"

How would you know what his speech sounded like?

No, just my main. I'm stockpiling Incarnate Shards in preparation for the Rare / Ultra Rare boosts. I have 66 so far, I assume I'll need quite a bit more for the Ultra Rare boost.

Quote:Justice raids very often too. In fact, the Justice crowd taught the (current) Freedom people how to raid. Freedom wasn't raiding Hami much at all (and had a very low success rate) until November of last year, when the free transfers happened and some Justice people moved to Freedom to teach us the ropes.Originally Posted by Aura_Familia
Sucks for some servers other than freedom and virtue then doesn't it?

Quote:Well, 1 shard every time you run the mission means a 1/18 drop rate, which would be in line with these numbers. A higher sample size would be nice.Originally Posted by TrueMetal
Can this increased drop rate also apply to the LGTF Hamidon? This could be pure luck of course but of the 3 LG's I did since I19 I got a shard of a mito each time.
-
Update on the mito drop rate: I have now killed exactly 500 mitos, and received 37 Incarnate Shards out of it, making the drop rate 1 in 13.5 mitos.
-
Make everybody on the team get all 3 warburg nukes, Shivans, HVAS, and Jet Pack.
After killing the last warwalker, leave someone with Assemble the Team outside the room.
Everybody but that one enter, activate the computers. Right after the last computer, Assemble out of the warehouse.
Summon Shivans and HVAS. Drop Bio Nukes on them.
Go in. Everybody toggle on Jet Packs.
Aggro Director 11 into the pets. Drop Chemical Burn and Nuclear Blast on him.
Fly up while the pets destroy him within 30 seconds.
In our case, we only had 3 people with nukes, and one of them didn't have Bio nukes; but we had someone with Force Bubble to keep the minelayers away. He died within 1 minute anyway. -

Quote:They are clickable buttons, but don't seem to do anything. Clicking "off" or "hide empty" makes the interface disappear, and that's it.Originally Posted by _Akry_
Out of curiosity, are any of those buttons/boxes clickable? Or are they static and dont' change/aren't clickable?
Happens on all my characters (which isn't a huge list, really: two controllers, a defender, and a blaster). I use roughly the same keys for all my characters:Quote:Originally Posted by _Akry_
Maybe we'll get some more ideas on what it actually doesor is possibly doing (if anyting) if you give us a little more information on what AT/set you're playing, when it happens (you said when you're fighting, but are you Hovering or anyting like that?), or if anything else is going around your computer (are you performing voodoo love ritual summoning at the time?).
F1, F2, F3, F4, F5
1, 2, 3, 4, 5
Q, W, E, R, T

A, S, D, F
Space
Arrow Up, Down
Numpad 0, 5, 8
Very rarely I'll use other keys, but those are my "core" gameplay keys. Maybe it's a combination with some other key that I'm accidentally hitting. -
Quote:Again, this is part of the COH executable (look inside the .exe). Fuzzy Kittens above replied that they've also seen it.Originally Posted by TerraDraconis
exactly, this looks like some sort of screen capture or video recording software that is accidentally hooked into COH and running when COH is run.
My best guess is that you have some video capture/video recording software on your computer. -
Quote:I didn't get annoyed until the strings dump from Process Explorer was put in question. If I were faced with that, I would not think "that person's computer has some malware that is specifically targeting COH's executable". That's a stretch. I would look for those strings in my copy of the program (we all have COH) and see that they in fact are there.Originally Posted by Ironblade
Okay, maybe you do. But how do we know that?
The very first thing I did when I first saw this window was to md5sum my COH executable and compare it with the executable in 2 other computers to ensure it hadn't been tampered with. If I thought my computer was infected by anything, I wouldn't even waste time running a full antivirus scan: I'd boot up Ubuntu, use it to back up my personal folders, and reinstall Windows from scratch. I don't trust "cleaning" a computer that's been compromised, I go for the nuclear option to ensure safety.
I am extremely direct in my way of communication. If that makes me a jerk, then apparently I know a lot about it. Let me quote you a book:Quote:Originally Posted by sleestackAh, I see. And being a jerk to someone trying to help, what do you know about that?
In other words: cultural thing. You'll consider every last argentine a jerk. We don't tiptoe around with words. I am actually a lot more careful with words in this forum than I ever am in real life, and I still manage to offend people from time to time.Quote:Argentines love to talk. They communicate directly, openly and often loudly. In Argentina there is no taboo in the use of foul language. A respectable old woman will swear like a sailor and no one bats and eye. Fools are not suffered lightly and anyone behaving in a pretentious or obnoxious manner will be sharply reprimanded, sometimes with just a simple gesture of the hands. Political correctness does not exist in Argentina because it would only impede getting your point across. If you are a little overweight your nickname might be ‘el Gordo’, or if you have a dark complexion they might call you ‘Negro’ or if you happen to be of Polish descent, ‘el Polaco’. No offense is intended, none is taken and there is no false morality to confuse the issues. It is evident when Argentines communicate with one another that their freedom of speech is real. Although Argentines are extremely patriotic and will not hesitate to tell you that their country has the tallest mountains, the tastiest beef, the most beautiful women, the finest wine and the best soccer players in the world, they will also be quick to point out that their country is run by corrupt politicians and is full of bullshitters and crooks. The truth is “which country isn’t?”, but Argentines in particular always seem to be just as aware of their own shortcomings as well as they are of other’s. This keen sense of discernment is illustrated by the vast quantity of words used to accurately describe an idiot, a braggart, a liar, a scam or the quality of anything from personal character to household appliances. The Argentines use these words with such frequency and passion that the unsuspecting foreigner will eventually have to ask “what is a ‘boludo’ and why can’t I find it in my Spanish dictionary?” -
Quote:The drones spawn in their "deactivated" animation. In order to get the two badges, you have to leave them deactivated and make sure they don't lose their health. If you activate them (using a temp power), you lose your chance at one badge, but you might still get the other, as long as none of them are defeated.Originally Posted by Dollymistress
We need a guide for the police drones badge. When I did Apex it looked like the drones were already wiped.

Quote:THANK YOU. Now I know it's not just my account that is marked with a magical flag that makes this appear.Originally Posted by Fuzzy Kittens
I've gotten the same thing upon occasion, Leandro. I have no clue what the hell it is or what caused it to display (I'd like to say key press combo, but I've never been able to duplicate it intentionally).
My question wasn't "Is this some spyware? Is my computer infected?". If I thought this was something on my computer external to COH, I would not have posted in the COH forums. I know this is part of COH. The question is, what is it.Quote:Originally Posted by sleestackI wasn't "doubting" you, just pointing out a possibility. You know, trying to help, like YOU asked us to. Given your ******* response, I hope you never find out what this is, and it steals all of your personal info to boot. -
Quote:Usually shows up in the middle of a fight, so there's probably a key combo that brings it up, but I haven't found it yet.Originally Posted by Memphis_Bill
I have never seen that before - any particular key combo or action bring it up, or does it "just show up?"
It's not.Quote:Originally Posted by sleestackThis looks like some sort of screen capture software.
Trust me, I can recite from memory what each of the processes loaded on my computer does. I am extremely paranoid about what gets on my computer, and I can guarantee that this is not an external thing.Quote:Originally Posted by sleestackHave you gone through your installed programs to see what's there?
I really get annoyed when people doubt what I say. I know my software. Here, have a hex dump of cityofheroes.exe, if that'll make you happy:Quote:Originally Posted by sleestackOne process can hook into a second process and in process explorer look like it's part of the second process. So, just because you're seeing those entries under CoH doesn't mean they are actually *part* of the CoH client.
-
No, this is definitely part of COH. Process Explorer finds the text from the above thingy in the cityofheroes.exe process memory:
So it's something in the COH client. The question is what is it. -
Every so often, this appears at the bottom of my screen. Clicking "off" gets rid of it, otherwise it doesn't disappear even when zoning. It doesn't show on regular screenshots, so I took a photo in order to display it here. Anybody knows what this does, and if I'm supposed to be seeing it at all?

What I really like about the new arcs is that they bring other contacts into the story. Talking to other contacts I've previously worked with in the middle of a story arc and getting help from them is a great touch.
