    They know already. From BAB's post, it sounds like power pools and APP/PPP's will be before EAT powers for customization.

    Also, additional customization is unlikely before GR (post here).

    Please search rather than posting random ideas. It will help with discussion.

    EDIT - Forgot second link.

  3. I guess I don't understand.

    I know about the fear component for stalkers now, but what is "over challenging" some people? And how do the decoys mitigate this issue? Is it facing too many mobs at once?
  4. Just bumping to remind you all for tomorrow.

    Change up !!!

    First, ADD? CM and Fort is from EMP and Invis from Concealment. I got that much.

    A little concerned you mentioned "AFK" and still wanting to do actions (that is botting IMO). That looks like a lot of abuse potential for someone that dual/multi boxes.

    I would not be a fan of seeing those powers nerfed lasting 1/2 as long (and, IMO again, I think they would be balanced (nerfed) with greater END usage, longer rech duration, and/or lower buffs benefits since they would be covering a whole team at once). Add on the fact that if you miss a player or players in the radius, then what do you do?

    Not sure what you mean at the end either about "a single shot form normal 1". Do you mean 1/2 as long as the single cast version to a single player?

    As for the super buff button, not sure we would ever seen something like that. MM's don't get a super buff button now with their 2 pet buff powers, why should others? How about FF with bubbles or Kin with ID/SB or therms with 2 shields/thaw/forge or cold with 2 shields/HP buff? What do they get? Or how about debuffers like my D3 defender? Sort of left out there with super buttons.

    Bank

    Sure, I think those are reasonable. But that's just me.

    Only thought that comes to mind is the monthly access shouldn't go below a certain point (like 50% of the max deposited - just tossing out a number here). This is in case some one goes inactive for a while and comes back with next to nothing.

    These fees would be a great way to add a new inf sinks to the game.
    Interesting...very interesting...

    But, would you run into the issue of not using the bank because you could use a "mule" toon(s) via emails and avoid the sink?

    Yeah, I could see it as more convenient QoL not having to log the mule on and transfer, but if the sink is too small, then why have it vs. if too large then avoid it.

    And where would the cap be?
  8. Hey all,

    Trying something different this time around. Looking to run a Master of the Barracuda SF this Friday at 930P EST. This is a 45+ SF. All in all this has been a straight forward SF except for that nasty ending (description here).

    I usually don't care about ATs, but for Master attempts, I will have a say. I would like at least 1 brute and 1 MM.

    OK! We got:
    1. Me (ice/cold corr Chillain)
    2. Voo (something or other)
    3. SHamster (better be your MM )
    4. MG (corr - better not need those rezzes!!!)
    5. ohloh (VEAT)
    6. Gristlebone (up to you if you want to still bring Brute, I am okay)
    7. Talnar (stalker)
    8. KT (brute)

    Thanks all for posting. If any one wants to be an alt, please post!

    Please have inspirations ready and be on time. If we have alts and it is 930P, I will take the alts and start the SF. I will not start over if you are late and the team is filled.

    Thanks Diggis. That makes more sense. I guess I am not seeing an issue with this from Bill PoV.

    Then I am confused by your post, oh well. I mean we can make "mule" toons to store stuff, use email, use SG bins. Just how much more do you want? Your post sounds like you just don't want to bother logging on a different toon and send what you need.

    What about then the changes in GR then with sending to the other side and market merge?
  12. First, I agree with Aett (any surprise there ) that I would like to see more of these effects in the game.

    Quick question since I have not worked on designing custom mobs in AE in quite a while, but do any of the sets have taunt in them that you can add to a critter? At least it would show if that power works.
  13. Welcome back!

    Also, you will want to check this thread for Victory and helping in find teams.
  14. PennyPA

    Voo was right...

    ...I guess I have a forum avatar now.
  15. Honestly, I don't see the same game as you. I am on Victory. I use global channels. I form teams. I post to the forums for events. I get blind invites. Did I mention I play on Victory?

    And yes, IMO, I think maybe one day the devs will give free xfers again for some reason they know.

    Edit - to clarify last sentence.

    Well if that is going to be used, I have no other comment except that TO/DO/SO are working as intended and fine as is. /unsigned

    I would say:
    1) another inf sink is gone, which we don't need in this game.
    2) it would make generic IOs worthless since crafting cost for salvage and crafting itself would be greater than just buying a DO or SO. (another inf sink lost like on those 50 IOs even if lvl50 IOs are better than an SO...)
    3) not everyone, new and old, use IOs
    4) an incentive to switch to IOs since they don't decay and suddenly learn about this market-thingy and all the crazy sets
    5) and this game is insanely easy already. You seem to be portraying new players as totally clueless about video games and incapable of learning things in a game.

    Uh, Yikes?

    Eh, I saw that thread and thought best to avoid it since unless you PvP 1000% of the time, then you obviously know nothing.

    As for rep, I recall disabling it about 0.5 seconds after the new boards came on.

    Can't be said enough.
  20. Agreeing with the others above.

    I have crafters on both sides (although that won't matter soon) and craft quite a bit. I just place bids for what I will pay. Then log on an alt, go to bed, go outside with my kids, or whatever else, and come back later, and there is my salvage. Only time I ever see high prices is the "I MUST HAVE IT NOW!" bidding.

    Additionally, I also never see a rush to add the IOs. I have been on S/TFs where I have dinged more than once, and just leave the slots empty or don't even bother training. I am still able to contribute to the team as before.
  21. Welcome to the boards!

    As for your suggestions:
    Always agree with your first one (has been brought up a number of times and the Search function can help you find old threads). Maybe one day I hope.

    For the second, I am not sure how this would work or have any opinion on. I have never used the trial for this game and don't know if making it "unlimited" would be feasible or not.

    When I ask people how the forum RealID can result in the loss of life, account and home to complete strangers, I expect a little more than a shakey, half-unknown anecdote if I'm being frank here.
    You asked how this person did it with my name, I answered who knows.

    Excuse me for not giving you all the details for you to examine and discuss. You know it all apparently and the final word. GLHF.

    Who knows? All I know was that my credit was ruined, and I have spent years fixing it. It is not something I would want to happen on others after all I did to fix my credit and identity. I still get letters or calls from some agency or whatever.

    You are very inconsiderate and insulting blaming others for loosing their identities when they did nothing.

    Anyway, I'm curious how with your name alone the employee managed to pull this stunt. We need a little more context than that, I think.
    Why? So you can steal it too?

    I've just done a search for myself and several other people I know, with a significant number of people sharing that name appearing on the search. I cannot see how someone's life or account is going to be 'stolen' unless they've been reckless with their private details.
    You are insulting with this uncaring attitude and even being snarky with the "np".

    I have been a victim of identity theft and it was due to a corrupt employee using my name to get bad loans/accounts. You can be careful all you want, but there are those that will take from you without you ever knowing. Shows how much you know about the real world.
