Quote:Uhm how is /Rad squishy? /kin I can understand, but Rad... seriously?Originally Posted by magicj
*/And with all due respect to those folks suggesting Kin or Rad, you will never fully understand the definition of "squishy" until you play one of those two sets or empath.
If you want controller melee, check out this video and see for yourself: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nml5LEtyjig -
I really can understand the OP. I tend to respec often, because I want to try out different things or powers that are not often used. I am playing since launch so I have a lot of respecs and don't have to worry about it. I do use Mids a lot, but nothing beats the real experience in trying out powers.
Expample: I am currently leveling a beam rilfe/time corruptor. I skipped the snipe, because I usually do, but I so want to know how it looks and sounds. But even me with all the respecs I got, don't want to waste one (in fact 2) just for that. And I am a very fast on the fly respecer. I just make a screenshot of my enhancement screen and then go, so it's not that I am afraid of respecing like some people are. I don't think it's a pain.
Well I could also install the test Server AGAIN -

Has anyone tried slotting the two Psi procs from the hold sets? Wasn't sure if they would proc enough during the life of this power to make it effective at AoE damage.

@Adamant
Actually Lancer Shot is more like Cosmic Burst. I think it's not quiet the same dmg as Blaze. -
Quote:Well I must admit that my first MMO was EQ1 and there everything was a timesink, but especially travel. You had to wait for the boad (around 20 mins) then actually use it and travel to the next continent... and so on.Originally Posted by Bags
Pretty much my take on the matter. I've seen travel handled very well in games, and I've seen it handled very poorly. This one tends to linger toward the "well" end of that spectrum.
The key thing for me is that travel in CoH is fun, and it has a great sense of speed to it. I rarely find myself doing the anxious foot tap of not being where I want. In fact, I frequently find myself just wandering around to see where I end up. It's like Crackdown, but without the suck. -
Wow quickfire you're the only person I ever heard to say that travel is a timesink in this game. Made my laugh... sorry no offense.

Quote:That is actually a very clever use of Sonic Repulsion!Originally Posted by Two_Dollar_Bill
I would like to go on record as the only person in City of Heroes that likes Sonic Repulsion. When soloing against melee types, I can cast it on my Power Drone Pet and then stand behind it.

Quote:The AoE hold isn't any more useless than any other AoE hold.Originally Posted by Memphis_Bill
This, actually.
From the heal-back "Illusory Damage" to the twin Invisibilities (really? What were they thinking?) to the early-and-useless AOE hold to the easily-chased-from AOE Fear to the cornerstone "you WILL be building for recharge whether you want to or not" Phantom Army, the set just annoys the hell out of me. When I have to pick a secondary in order to *regain* some control (Trick Arrow, with a decent AOE soft control, immob, a hold to stack, etc.) there's something wrong.
LocalMan where are you?

Quote:Unsure, but wasn't there something in the patch notes that you don't have to be on the ground anymore for earth powers to work?Originally Posted by Dr Harmony
Earthquake's long animation time bugs me.
Stalagmites bugs me by requiring me to be on the ground, and not having an alternate animation to its footstamp.
Power Sink bugs me by having an endurance cost of 13 - which often makes it difficult to fire off when you need it. I know, think ahead, but it still bugs me.

Thank you! Really appreciate it and have a nice vacation.

Quote:What does the description of the beacon says? In our base it clear says: Echo GalaxyOriginally Posted by Ukaserex
Sorry, this doesn't seem true for everyone. My Galaxy beacon still goes to Galaxy, but then it zones me into Atlas park.

First welcome to City of Heroes. I hope you enjoy it.
And kudos to you that you come to the forums and ask for advice.
In your particular case I would say that there is no AT needed (even if some noobs claim they "need" a healer or they "need" a tank). In fact debuff is king or dps is king.... everything can work out in this game. Flexibility is what comes to my mind.
Of course some would say that you need debuffs for certain Arch Villains, but I saw all Scrapper Teams kill them evenly fast if not faster without debuffs, same goes for every "All-insert specific AT-here"-Teams. -
Doubt the OP is going to answer

Quote:Oh and I envision a world where people on the forums that posted nerdrage-filled rants will come back to their own threads, apologize or thanks for the helpOriginally Posted by Emberly
I envision a world where people read patch notes and take deep breaths before posting nerdrage-filled rants on forums. This is not that world.

Agree with the OP. This needs to be fixed!

Quote:I still hate it that we get actually weaker when we level up. Yeah I know this isn't a big issue with IOs around anymore, but still.Originally Posted by Samuel_Tow
I never found an NPC that could do that wile I was there, which was admittedly a long time ago. Either way, I don't want penalties to my performance. If I failed once, I failed for a reason. Making me WEAKER just makes me more likely to fail again, making me weaker still.

Quote:This. There is a reason why I still play CoH but not EQ1 ;pOriginally Posted by Memphis_Bill
10. None of the above. The *lack* of crap like that is part of what's appealing about COH.
I've dealt with "rez sickness," having to pay "soul healers" to get XP back, loss of items and the like. HATED it. Especially when it's a death due to something like lag. Those games tend to get dumped. -
The video isn't working anymore

Quote:Yeah but what it is supposed to mean? Leichendiener is not an actual german word that does exist. In fact it's just 2 separate words stuck together and now they don't make much sense.Originally Posted by Fleeting Whisper
At a guess: Necro MM
Another thing it could mean would be Leichengräber or Totengräber. Not sure what they wanted it to be though. -
Quote:I might add we (Eurocore) are the biggest active european SG on Victory.Originally Posted by Dante
Thanks for the tip. I will try and check out all of the servers at some point. I hear that there's a strong EU presence on Victory these days.

Quote:Doubt its taken, since that is a really ood word. I think you meant something else? Because Leichendiener is weird. Sevant of corpses....wth?Originally Posted by Serpine
A long time back I reqularly played on a MUD where a goblin racial profession I was in had a unique emote that said to the triggering player something like "You bellow out your warcry." I went several years thinking this is essentially what other players saw as well, until one day one of my friends asked me why I frequently yelled "FOOD! FOOD!" in the middle of battle.
Anyway, does this mean I'll actually have a server called Zukunft on my list? If so, that is just awesome. I'd be almost tempted to transfer my character Leichendiener over there... Though it might be taken now that I think of it. -
Quote:I prefer italian foodOriginally Posted by Chase_Arcanum
I warmly welcome the server list merge, hoping that all our servers will be enriched with more British humor, German engineering, and French food.
Part of me, however, does fear that we might instead get stuck with British food, German humor, and French engineering.

Quote:I am German, but boy I don't want to know what Speed Boost is in German. I took a look at the german side years ago and left laughing hard.Originally Posted by Steelclaw
You made me think of another one...
* With the infusion of North Americans on their servers, all those who don't speak english will make sure they know AT LEAST two english words prior to teaming for the first time.... "Speed Boost" -
Quote:Same here, would have made it alive but not fast. If you played games like Everquest for years you know how to get arround without getting aggroOriginally Posted by Twisted Toon
I probably would have lost the race by a little more than a few seconds. but, I think I could have made it there alive. I got pretty good at avoiding aggro in high level areas on low level characters. used to make that run to the back end of the Hollows from the Atlas gate straight through the pick with nothing but Sprint...and my superhero costume of course. Wouldn't want to get arrested for indecent exposure. And flashing the Trolls might give them the wrong signal.
