Or does scrapper get stalker?
And before you ask, yes, we are doing the "technique" for the ambush.
And thanks ohloh, got you down. -

Considering others have posted in favour of allowing duplicate names in this thread and previous threads, and considering the devs offered to do just that, yes, other people obviously do mind.

Quote:Neither do you...but you go on saying about other people do mind - speaking for others already?Originally Posted by Johnny_Butane
but you do not speak for everyone.
Then you say people should be allowed too - again - speaking for the masses on what is and is not allowed?
Then you tell us what the preferable alternative is - for who? You or us? Again there is that speaking for everyone again.
As posted above, your first hint was the response in the room or do those others you speak for count more? -

If this is all you were doing, then this is a useless thread. "Make more powers" isn't useful to the Devs at all, since they are already doing that. Give them, and us, something specific to discuss, and you'll get that. Give us something useless, and you'll get useless responses.
To add on more what Aett said, here is a recent example (here) in Lady-Jade's Power Suggestion Box at the top of this forum. -

Or blaster for the temp power.

Well, if I am going to have an emp on the otherside healing...yes!
Actually any AT, but would like to have at least 1 MM for the temp power. I will see if I can blitz through the alignment changes by next Tuesday otherwise will be on the MM. -
Quote:^this sums up the thread for me^Originally Posted by Sharker_Quint
many super heroes fly. and last time i checked, super man wasn't magic.
just because you think something is wierd is not going to make the devs change it.
so, the only thing i think i might be able to get behind is a new animation for sj. good luck getting anyone to agree that the other powers are broke. even sj isn't broke.
BABs has comments that power pool customization will be coming (so many times I have linked to his posts). And Castle even started a thread (here about alternate animations (look at the second reply with 2 powers listed from power pools). -
Will set up something in the future I hope! Or will watch if someone else will.

Hey all,
Setting up for a Master of the Barracuda SF run next Tuesday at 9P EST. This is a 45+ SF. All in all this has been a straight forward SF except for that nasty ending (description here).
I am on channels Victory Forum, Victory Badges, and Victory Badges 2009.
So, who all is interested?
1. Me (evil emp def)
2. Voo (guy with a big glowy stick)
3. SHamster (dual crab melee AT)
4. MG (stalker)
5. ohloh (ill/rad controller)
6. ir0x0r (fire/fire dom)
7. Lanna Su (scrapper)
8. Tarkin Gunn (tank)
NOTE: I was on a TF with my hero tank on a mixed team with some vig/rog toons. They used O portal and seemed to have no effect (aka not dropped). But they were taken back to their otherside ports and had to come back via Pocket D.
Please have inspirations ready and be on time. If we have alts from this forum or from the global channels ready to go and you are not there, and it is 9P, I will take the alts and start the SF. I will not start over if you are late and the team is filled. -
I am mixed on this. I already find this game easy enough. This just makes things like END management and deciding on builds (to fit in those powers or not or when to take them and slot them) out of the game.
A few other thoughts for me at least in that I can hold off on the bunch of respecs I was about to do for villain APPs and blue toons getting PPPs. But now it will suck if I want to respec toons and have to decide on what powers to add in. I really like the fact that I can take things like sprint and not worry about adding slots. I am not sure I want all my primaries/secondaries for each of my toons. -
AWESOME!!!!
Grats!

Quote:Actually I was waiting to see if we have enough debuffers. I was going to suggest ignoring LR. This is how we did the Darkstorm STF. We just debuffed him and proceeded to take the towers down. I know def debuffs and MM debuffs are not the same. Alternatively, just have someone pull LR in BG mode and fly/hover over him since he only have 1 ranged attack, keeping pets from attacking.Originally Posted by Satanic_Hamster
In theory, this should be similar to an all controller run. The only real problem is going to be Recluse. Really suggest participants grab helpful temp powers; chem+bio nukes, shivans, etc.

Quote:Will do Seers. Was already mapping the missions out for all MM.Originally Posted by Seers
if it helps, I have a nin/traps and bots/ff to bring. Let me know if it's happening though so I can make the time =]

Quote:Ah, thanks very much.Originally Posted by StarGeek
Longbow Eagles, as well as some Cabal witches, have a power called [Positioning].
All I could remember someone mentioning it and a dev (also Castle I thought) confirmed something was going on with Longbow Eagles, but the details were too hazy. -
Just to add to those mobs mentioned above, I thought it was posted somewhere that Longbow Eagles also can see through stealth or ignore. There was a discussion, hmmm, a year or two ago, about stalkers not being able to get in to large group of Longbows and AS. Not finding it atm. So not 100% sure anymore.

DOH!
Okay, will look for another day. -
Overall, as a 72+ month vet, I wouldn't mind this added. I have heard that costumes are an important factor to some in this game or that they have concepts they want to try out but have to wait for cape/aura.
My concern now with GR out and new players are around (or old ones are back) is that "us vs. them" issue.
I hate running around Praet now using my Nem staff or blackwand. Or getting a travel power at lvl6. Kinda funny in timing since I was chatting with a friend who was with new players and he was trying to answer all these questions as a "crusty old vet". Just not sure how to deal with this. -
Bummer on transferring!
Looking lean on those MM's. Will keep watching, and may postpone to another week when more MM's are blueside. -
Looking like we will not have enough.
Saving for another day.

Sounds good Sam. GL on the toons.

Quote:So true. Like during an rikti invasion in St Marts once. A number stood at range and shot at me. Luckily my powers were up and were my pets summoned and took them out.Originally Posted by macskull
Yeah, but some mobs (Deathsurge included) can stand outside of the kill zone and kill people with ranged attacks.

Quote:Well I am free this Friday night. But do you think enough MM's are blueside yet to post?Originally Posted by Satanic_Hamster
Would like to do an all mastermind one.
Otherwise, may consider MBSF for rox. -
Nice pics Sam.
As for choices, I will just give first impressions after reading the descriptions and the looks. Could be way off but how I feel.
Shaffakoom: WM/FA brute.
You said he was strongest but not want SS. I thought what better way that smashing with a big old mace. Claws seemed a bit not so strong to me. I picked FA, but thought EA could work too. Sorta of a rage theme where he is really mad and intense heat/energy comes off of him.
Iprit: plant/TA controller
The plant part sounds in line, and the /TA has those powers that give me the same impression (entangling arrow, poison gas arrow, etc.).
Your idea for necro/poison MM sounds spot on too. But this is just a suggestion.
Duriel: Grav (or mind)/Thorn (metal ones) dominator
Sorta off the wall-ish here. This is the from the technology angle and using it to manipulate gravity. I thought mind too since she was queen/hive mother of a large colony.
Thorns because I felt it matched the outfit. -
Quote:I have brought my MM all the way over to full hero. Apart from badges, nothing else. In the globals, they reminded me that only on reaffirming your alignment do you get something. Like my scrapper confirmed being a hero and got the merit reward which I bought an A merit, and got the random roll for 5 recipes, which were quite nice and profitable (numina's).Originally Posted by VoodooCompany
For those that have switched sides completely (either way), did you receive reward merits?
In globals the other day, several people said they had, along with the badges, etc that come with switching sides.
This may be come my side hobby to do since my scrapper (and widow) can blaze through tip missions. -

I'm wondering where this vets not teaming with newb mentality is.
I haven't done it. I haven't seen anyone do it.
I still see some "We need this or that to run this TF" but none of this "no newbies" thing.
Agreeing with this too. If anything, IME lately, I have had players saying this is the first time running such-and-such. If anything, I don't even use my vet temp powers if I am with new players so to not appear showing off or flaunting it.
I would like to hear the OP's definition of "a lot" and "quite a few teams". Just how much of the overall population does the OP knows or has teamed with - 1%, 5%, 50%, more? Same server, different servers, daily, hourly? This would put in perspective what "a lot" is and how much of a problem it is.
