    I was just using 100 influence as an example and could use any influence amount to rate. The point is their would be an actual list from first to last of who has the highest rating instead of the most ratings.

    Edit: oh and I don't like stars
  2. What's 100 influence to rate an arc you like, farmers are their for maximum reward so wouldn't rate anything anyway, all new movies suck and I don't much care for restaurants cause my food probably taste better anyway.

    I still think it's a good idea

    I've heard that taunt has a -range component to it... is that only in PvE, or only the tanker taunt?
    Yes it gets resisted but more so by scrappers and tanks that have taunt resistance, but squishys it works ok i get taunted sometimes on my blaster and it last idk like 5 seconds.

    Not sure if you can keep someone perma taunted but even if you could it's hard to keep them that close to you to do it.

    Taunt from tanks,scrappers and brutes have minus75% range but taunt from the pool powers has no minus range anywhere
  4. OK well I don't ever really have people play my AE storys except friends and SG mates I still think it needs a new rating system instead of stars. What are we in grade 4 "you get 4 gold stars, YAY!"

    So here is what I propose if you want to rate someones arc in cost influence/infamy but the person doesn't get this influence/infamy it just vanishes like WW/BM fees. I just think gold stars are a lame way to rate anything and it would be good for it to cost something to rate. What do you guys think?

    And their rating would be now how ever much influence/infamy people gave it

    They keep their set bonuses no matter what but pvp bonuses and other bonuses work in pvp zones while just the other bonuses work in pve zones.

    Specifically, I'm an MM and I don't want my opponents attacking my henchmen. Does challenge force my opponent to attack me?
    what it does if it hits(has a to-hit check) is make the person automatically untarget whoever they have target and then yes target you.

I think they fixed the computer part, but there is still a lot of enemies left.

    It could just be superstition, but that's what I do.
    I tried this on an ITF the other day cause the brute said the same as you and I gotta say it did seem to cut the lag down noticebly. We didn't finish any faster than normal 40 mins or so but less lag.

    The strange part about this is the only protection I had was Unyeilding at +10.0 but it still wasn't knocking me back.

    If you type [War Zone Pylon.Swarm Missile] it brings up the info in it's power.

    Because it's an object, you can't really get accurate information, because it changes when you change the AT in the info box.

    The stats show 4 ticks of damage, a magnitude of X KB, and then a 40% chance for an additional magnitude of X/2 KB.

    Every time I was hit, my attributes showed -12.0 and I was not knocked back with only +10.0 protection.

    I'm not sure what's going on, or what the specific stats are.. but there's my findings so far.
    You were either on a tank or scrapper which not only has KB protection but also KB resistance which turns KB into almost nothing when it hits you
  9. Yes you have to wait for it to finish updating and ouch on the speed what kinda connection/rig are you running?
  10. I would love to join not sure if I'm working or not but I get my new schedule tommorow so I will keep you informed

    Bridging was an unintended side effect of the SK/LK system. People used it to run Nemesis farms and level people rather quickly. They left it this way a LONG time. So long, in fact, that it has gotten its own term. Changing the system now, WILL cause attrition. There's no avoiding it. There are people who play that like leveling fast. There are quite a few who want to at least get to 20 so they can get stamina and not have to rest between battles. They want a fast-paced game, not a sit-in.

    I don't think you have even heard of any of the new features being put in. They are making it faster to level up between lvl 5-24 now
  15. Well I16 is in open beta so it's gotta be close now. And power customization is nothing short of awesome.
  16. Sign me up for both with Tarquin

    Thanks Luna

    this sounds like a good idea, get 100 kills and no recipe bam your next kill is guarenteed
  18. I would have to go with stamina as being up there for one of the most powerful powers.

    They do for one of my arcs, gave them kinetics as a secondary and they sb each other all the time.

    They do for masterminds so I assume assault and all the other leadership toggles would for all pets. For the heavy in RV it gets them to or at least it shows that it has the buff tested this myself.

    But anyway one thing I have noticed is that almost everybody uses Super Speed along with another travel power. My question is if anybody has come up with any way to get around using Super Speed and still be effective? I understand how useful SS is in PvP and I'm not clowning on anybody who uses it. I just wanna know if there is a good alternative to it, or a way to counter it (using an SoA or melee fighter). thanks.
    There's no getting around using Super speed unless you wanna gimp yourself. You need it because
    A: Fly fails when anyone use a minus fly move
    B: just as many minus jump as minus fly powers out there
    C: lol teleport
    D: nothing stops Super speed not for more then a few seconds anyway

    The market is cross-server, so being on Freedom doesn't increase the supply of IOs or salvage.

    Another reason other then teaming to be on the high pop server is PVP. Let's be honest any server but freedom for PVP is a joke
