There are no storage bins for recipes. If you don't want to keep it on your character, mail it to an unused character to hold until you need it. I would recommend against using gleemail as storage, people have reported that they are losing items.
As for the CoP, you need a Raid Telepad and an Oracle or Mission Computer. -

Quite a few in the base-building community convert hundreds of millions of inf into prestige, I'd consider that an inf sink.
More importantly, base-building is a time sink for players which I think is more in line with what the devs gear towards, than taking inf off the table. It's something to do during cool-down times, in between leveling. -

Been happening to me for a couple of updates now. As far as I can tell, it has to do with my camera distance. I tend to keep my camera 3-4 click out or more. If I gave my character next to the portal and zoom out it goes away, zoom in and it re-appears.
Affects the O-portal in Ouro as well, zoom out and it will constantly re-spawn, zoom in and it functions properly. -
Quote:You would be talking about the How to silence specific game sounds thread, which also gives you directions on how to apply your own sounds to the game.Originally Posted by Mindlab
Just to throw this in--if you want to find glowies easier, change the sound. There's a great post about how to do it. It's very easy and makes those things much, much, much easier to find. This is minor modification, so it might qualify as a "band aid" but it helps.
You know, a million years ago when i played WoW, I also used a few mods to make the game more enjoyable. Same with other games. I think, to me at least, using a few custom mods is part of playing an MMO, so I don't frown on CoX for needing a few. -
Quote:I like this idea Adeon. /signedOriginally Posted by Adeon Hawkwood
I don't have an objection to the idea but I really don't see a need for it. However, I would kind of like to see the 3rd and 4th rows of inspirations moved from levels 25 and 40 to 20 and 30 so that you get all 20 earlier. It's not a game breaker but having the extra row does make it easier to sort drops until you can combine while still keeping a few specific ones (break frees and purples mostly) available for tough fights.
As for the OP's idea, meh.
We really don't need more inps slots. An often neglected item in the game is the Empowerment station. -

Back quite a few years ago my wife and I were living in southern Missouri. It was the night of our tenth wedding anniversary.
We had just went to bed and I was almost asleep when I felt a wave (for lack of a better word) go from the foot of the bed to the head of the bed. I asked the wife, "You feel that?"
"Uh yeah. That was weird. What in the world was that?"
"Dunno, but it was freaky."
The next day we found out that a 4.1 quake had hit about 45 miles from the house.
Not many people can say that the earth moved on their anniversary.
Reminds me of a night back in my first couple of weeks playing CoX, was on a PuG and I think it was one of the outdoor Warfolf missions. All of a sudden it felt as though I were getting dizzy. Looks at my bed stand lamp to see it wobbling.
I typed into team chat "Huh, earthquake." To which one of my teammates responded.
"Me too."
I was o.O for a few seconds.
Me: "Where are you?"
Him: "Tiburon."
Which is about 30 mins drive south of me. Small world.

Quote:I've actually gotten in more Stalker time since GR came out then in all the last three years of playing, even though if you read the GR forums, some people are claiming that they are obsolete and at the bottom of the rung.Originally Posted by Jade_Dragon
OTOH, I find it's a lot of fun to go through a mission as a Stalker, taking on foes one by one and taking them down almost casually. Some ATs lend themselves to steamrollering over crowds of foes, while others feel "super" in other ways.

Quote:Sorry, my original post (before getting dropped from the forums) was not worded as "you did PL" it was more like a "sounds as if".Originally Posted by Raster
You're assumption is incorrect, I have not been power leveled, I did a large infl infusion from a friend, but I got to 41 mostly by soloing, catching an on occasional group from my SG. Out of 41 may be I got 5 levels through grouping the rest were done solo doing Arc's. I haven't even tried AE until level 39.

I don't believe it does, since it's not an armor (most of what you see that on are things like regen auras and other non damage type auras.) Drain Psyche would be like an attack, so it should have an animation and sound.

Quote:True, we will likely never perceive the game in the same way. Everyone has their own opinion on how the game feels for them.Originally Posted by Raster
Really? I dont think having a superhero take on 2 minions and a LT is very super. This is where I dont think we will agree. This is where personal preference and perception of each player is going to be different.
Also not being confrontational:
But a couple of your statements don't add up for me...

A friend of mine gave me a billion inf, I started to use IO sets around 32. Now that I'm level 41 I'm as outfitted with IO sets as I can, and yes I feel quite super now. But I definitely didn't even start to feel super until late 30's. The first 20-25 levels it was about like I remembered it 5 years, except with more content, and a lot less bugsYou are a returning player, that either PL'd or 'ground' your way past more than half the content in the game, and have already twinked out your character with an infusion of 1 billion inf.Quote:...as a player with fresh set of eyes...
I understand that some players like to play at max level, blow through the lower levels as quickly as they can. (I think we heard from some of them when they went through Praetoria... "This **** is nuts!" "These mobs are too hard!" "WTF!" Granted the ambushes get a bit mind-numbing sometimes.)
Likely what you are looking for is the I19 Incarnate content, much of it is for "end-game" players. Definitely check out the info page on it up in Announcements.
And Welcome back to the game.
<copies entire post, as these ******* forums have logged me out twice while attempting to post> -
I don't know, my level 3 character feels pretty heroic when taking on half a dozen even-con foes in a single mob, often with at least one Lt in there.

Does Drain Psyche have a 'Animate in PvP only' option? I know on my Martial Artist, choosing that option effects the sound of her powers as well.
Just a thought. -

thanks for the support Red, so it was only a 4.3 then. Silly reporters trying to make it bigger than it was.
I will state though, OK has had several earthquakes this year make the news. Now it's no surprise (at least to me) that OK has earthquakes. Actually the area generally gets the most in the US, they are just so low nobody cares or notices. But this was the first time I felt and heard one so, yay! for new experience! Hopefully this isn't a sign of things to come though as this state is not, at least in my humble opinion, earthquake ready.

Quote:I'm pretty sure Defiant has a couple of Mentors. Head down to the Server forums and poke you head into the Defiant server section and introduce yourself. Let them know if you are still on a trial account, as they have certain restrictions that limit your communication abilities within the game.Originally Posted by BigBoss Eyepatch
I'm in the UK so am on the Defiant server, I'm still getting used to all the controls in truth so I think I look like a clumsy fool really, but in my defence I've only been playing for like... 2 days. So I don't think Im doing too bad...
The only thing Im finding a bit disconcerting, is the fact that for a MMPORG, I've barely seen anybody who isn't an NPC -
I knew I was forgetting something... <.<
My Illusionist is about half way through WWR. -
A lot of good advice here.
My suggestion is to continue with the Mercy Island missions as they make for good training for new players. Plus there's a badge for snake defeats...
You will get a variety of foes, many will be melee, some will be ranged. Snakes, Longbow, Infected, Skulls, and a couple of others that will be good practice on how your chosen powersets function.
Having a Control set Primary, pulling and separating mobs is your best tactic. Lock down one, pull another out of line of sight (LOS,) that should give you enough time to finish off the pulled foe before the other one releases and comes after you.
If you'd like to ask for some in-game help, head up to the Mentor Project and give a shout-out. You'll find people on every server that have offered to donate their time and knowledge to new players ("newbs", not to be confused with "n00bs" who are players that think they know everything and are unwilling to listen to anyone.)
And, Welcome to CoX. -

Quote:My answer is a combination of 1-3Originally Posted by Seek_Trouble
Sorry if this has been discussed already countless times but as always Im late to the show.
With the knowledge of inherent Stamina etc, I just cant seem to want to work on my characters. I always throw Stamina in whatever build Im leveling usually by 25 or so. I also like to respec once I hit 50.
So what I see as my choices are:
1. Play as normal, get stamina, then respec after i19.
2. Dont bother with stamina, and be without end all the time. Then respec after i19.
3. Play lowbie toons that usually wouldnt have picked up stamina yet. Deal with all other problems lowbie toons have, no end, acc, money, etc.
4. Respec Stamina out now, add other powers, deal with recovery issues, then respec after i19, to add a slot or two in health or stamina.
Yeah so I kind of feel stagnant, not sure what to do.
Anyone else experiencing this? How are you playing for the next month? or so?
1. Play as normal, get stamina, then respec after i19.
2. Dont bother with stamina, and be without end all the time. Then respec after i19.
3. Play lowbie toons that usually wouldnt have picked up stamina yet. Deal with all other problems lowbie toons have, no end, acc, money, etc.
