  1. This is not doom.

    And something tells me that NCSoft would not make him train his replacement without telling him, and then unceremoniously give him the boot. BaB has been here forever and a day, and I don't believe that NCSoft would treat someone instrumental in making one of it's games like that. I also believe that BaB is a professional, and that if NCSoft told him "It's not working out, we're letting you go in six months and we'd like you to train your replacement" his reply would be "No problem. It's been fun, sorry it's coming to an end."

    Elec/SD vs DM/SD

    For radio missions, I'd agree with you. For Task Forces, Dark is the better set. The AVs are the real threat, and Dark will down them faster than Elec will. Both sets have stupidly high potential for damage if you pump their recharge high enough, the difference is the attack you're clicking off as often as possible. Lightning Rod is a sick AoE, but you're going to get it off once per fight at most and Energy is the third most resisted damage type in the game, coming in VERY close behind Smashing and Lethal. Midnight Grasp is a sick tier 9 which is entirely negative energy, which means next to nothing is going to resist it.

    What do you want to shake in fear when you approach, the Boss, or the 10 minions surrounding him?
  3. Am I the only one who thought of that crappy Eminem song ("but Makai, they're ALL crappy") when I saw the thread title?
  4. Three red dots. That's usually what you click on to get in, right?

    Oh, sorry. Wrong icon.
  5. You and your fancy titles. Let's see either of you come up with half as many groan-inducing puns as I have.

    The forum blanks out a lot of swearwords automatically.

    A little humility goes a long way.
    I will translate this. One moment please.

  8. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU! Finally my Praetorians can have more than one costume.

    New to Virtue

    Welcome to Virtue. Just remember two things.

    1) Being new and not knowing things about the game is not a crime. Feel free to ask questions. We love to give advice.
    2) Don't feed the catgirls
  10. I did some calculations and found out that the HP is just a little too high: 1338.6. I think if we dropped the base HP level by a mere 1.6 HP, it will go a long way to balancing Scrappers.
  11. Why are these posts being made here when we have a marketplace forum?

  13. I doubt any old zones are going to be redone unless there's a reasonable excuse for them being co-op, a la Rikti Crash Site becoming the Rikti War Zone.
  14. Does running the Synapse Task Force count as studying for a neurobiology exam?
  15. ...does that make you hobo-sexual?
  16. The best time to run a respec trial is...wait, people still run respec trials?

  18. I thought this was gonna be an IC thread. I was unprepared, and the sadness and shock made me cry a little.

    Whatever hate you have for the wars we fight, direct them at the government, not the soldiers. The government decides who we go to war with, the soldiers are the ones who lay their lives on the line doing it. As anti-war as I am, I have nothing but respect for the men and women of the military who devote their lives to protecting civilians and ensuring that we can live our lives in peace and safety.

    Makes me sorry I didn't really know the guy...
  19. The GMs recovered my deleted character! I now have my level 50 Fire/Fire Scrapper again! Once again we see a shining example of how NCSoft cares about it's customers.
  20. Sorry, I took it out before it was ready. I need to but the pun back in the oven.
