  1. IIRC only affect self means it would turn off supremacy, i believe PFF also turns off supremacy as well
  2. im currently running a dark/energy blaster, dark pairs very nicely with powerboost (-tohit is huge, immob of teneb tentacle is very long and so is the hold on abyssal gaze)

    umbral torrent is good for keep mobs away from you and off your feet and teneb tentacle keeps them from running back to you, due to the large number of cones in the set boost range is also very effective

    due to the large number of DoTs aim + build up then umbral torrent a spawn and slap gloom on one guy, abyssal gaze on another, teneb tentacles and then gloom another guy and they will all die around the same time

    One problem, is that you may only see the high damage in the floating damage numbers above the target's head. I think the combat log will only show how much damage the target took, which is limited by its hit points. Not sure about that though.
    the combat log shows total dmg the power dealt, not limited by hp

    also slows are extremely effective vs low lvl baddies, 1 infrigidate and the guy will basically not be able to move

    i have a time/fire defender at lvl 46 right now, when he was like lvl 38 or something i was running mishs with lvl 50 friend who had mish at +4, my friend was a brute and ran off and promptly died, i got the leftover aggro and actually ended up killing off a mob of +5 longbow by myself (this was like a x6 mob too), that was pretty amazing and my friend who died watched the whole thing and just amazed at what i just did (i was pretty suprised about it too, but perma powerboosted farsight + veng really helps lol)
  5. energy manipulation is definitely good for pure ranged output since its full of click buffs

    i think the name most commonly given to it is the matrix room

    because the power is using a pseudo pet the proc would only have a chance to trigger on you when you spawned it, after that any other chances to proc would only affect the psuedo pet and essentially do nothing

    Task Forces

    i personally have multiple ATs at 50 so i can switch as needed and just more variety

    dominators are excellent control and dmg, corrs are like defenders but deal a ton more dmg, brutes are basically a combination of scrapper and tank so depending on build can fill either roll

    personally the best thing i would rather take on a tf is buff/debuff- rad emission, cold domination, thermal, ect especially cold dom is very team friendly and has a lot of strong debuffs

    if you dont like them i would suggest getting the Coin-B-Gone which is the best current solution for dealing with the coins

    I'd probably aim for having a decent amount of +Runspeed bonuses in my build, once Def and Recharge are taken care of, but will the combo leave me with not enough offense on a Brute?
    i think it would be perfectly viable, divine avalanche would basically softcap you to smash/lethal with only 1 use once you have granite, and brute fury would take care of the dmg aspect

    i like the idea to just call them, but i dont like the idea to do a mish for them, just auto grant them as a contact in something like "options" tab on contact window so they are there but not in the way

    to help throw out some numbers it would cost 2250 pts per account which is about $30 of points per account for 5 sets on each, actually if you got 6 sets per account it would be almost exactly $30 (would have 20 pts leftover then)

    $15 = 1360 pts
    2x=2720 pts
    6x sets = 2700 pts

Typing /stuck puts you underneath the map and from there you can fly to the blue room (it's under the Arena).
    /this, i know it was there when i went to it within the last 6ish months or so

    if you been keeping up with the i21.5 beta theres a little bit of base luv going on there lol
  16. hmm, well if you bought it from a store thats within driving distance i would just try to take it back and/or ask for another copy

    if you ordered it online from a retailer, if they have a store locally you should try to do the above

    if you got it from another site like amazon or ebay then you may be SoL
  17. im sure it would be more work than its worth, but on the main chart you could prolly scrap the question about if i21 has launched yet since its clearly live now lol
  18. achilles proc is excellent in it, force feedback will not be useful in it at all

    if your short on slots just go with achilles proc and rech IOs, if you have more slots achilles proc + IO set for the dmg/rech and set bonuses
  19. the reason it was disallowed use in bases and mishs is cause it downloads the entire contents of the market on to the instance your in which causes a lot of stress on the server

    i doubt it will be coming back ever

    So I can claim shotgun for every character after one purchase?

    Or I can claim only one shotgun on only one character? (and only one wolf whistle on one character etc)

    Or I must claim all of the pack on only one character.
    character items are for a single character, so you would have to claim individually, it most likely has multiple charges that you can claim but it is not account wide
  21. they are ALL character items which are claimed per character
  22. i think the show is hilarious because its so relatable, for me its the ONLY sitcom that ive ever really enjoyed watching lol

    my GF thinks im pretty close to sheldon, and my parents have told me that their group of people are basically me, a friend, and 2 of my cousins cause were all really that nerdy lol

    a few corrections here-the 5th column gladiator is now granted either by having both anniversary badges OR running barracuda sf OR running dr kahn tf

    about the new arcs requiring the prereq arcs even through ouro flashbacks was really annoying, i dont believe its a bug but it may be (it wasnt highly mentioned in the beta)

    Not failed that mission yet, and I've been through it a dozen times at least over the years.

    If all you're doing is waiting for the runners, then the mission will feel like it's never going to end, because the waves of runners are so spread out over time, and there are a lot of spawns on that map. However, I have done the mission just through the application of patience and waiting for runners... it took a while.
    /this, and if your running solo on very low diff like x1 you could potentially kill enough fir bolg that there wont even be 30 on the map to fail the mish
  25. i would have to say no to this because A) he wouldnt fit in the building and B) this suggestion is clearly to grief poeple
