  1. I wouldn't use this, but I don't see any gameplay issues against it. Well, aside from teh fact that in my case showing any buff bar while in Ultra Mode hardlocks the game and makes me kill it via task manager (which I've been /bugging since friggin' I17 closed beta. )
  2. When I play my demon MM and use the market, I generally follow the "fast trip out, long trip go" rule. Of course, I often use the less-frequented markets too, which means I don't need to dismiss them much.
  3. I've got a mind/ice permahasten permadom and I find it QUITE nice. You drop the inf. it'll take you straight to the top.
  4. Nope, when you cast WoP the BU proc will have a chance to go off for you alone.

    pssst! Dark Rye bread is better than either and gluten free!
  6. I've got all the packs as well, and I can't really argue against offering a new player discount option for them all. A "buy 2 get 1 free" promotion for new players (or even cheapskate existing subs ) couldn't hurt and might help a fair bit.
  7. This a bug or WAI? Noticed a few minutes ago that my little stormy/pistol defender, when I trigger snow storm with the guns drawn, doesn't holster them the way she does with pretty much every other storm power I tested (freezing rain, gale). Not sure if this is a bug, or if it's supposed to be like that. If it's a bug, can we spread it to every other power that normally forces redraw with dual pistols for all 3 ATs that use it?
  8. As pretty much everyone's said, the actual tangible (well, as tangible as purely electronic rewards can be) payoff is laughable. It's purely about bragging rights and self esteem. I've got an Ill/Rad that's soloed several GMs and pretty much every AV that doesn't have insane psi resists (Siege, I'm looking at YOU). The entire point of the exercise for me was to see if I could do it, to prove to myself that I was capable of such a feat.

    Having done so, that character is now mostly retired, and I spend much of my time on less capable characters, often at low levels.
  9. Suppresses to about half, as I recall.
  10. I'd certainly not object to this. I've got lots of characters who can generate a metric ton of merits even solo (IIRC my ss/electric brute has around 1500 left after buying EVERYTHING) and I'd love something to use them for which would serve my greater goals. /signed!

    A Super Strength/Willpower Brute would probably be the best suited to a broad description like that. If it HAS to be a blueside character, I'd suggest Martial Arts/Willpower, with the alternate punchy animations used for as many attacks as possible. That'll give a very mixed martial arts sort of feel to the character and hit reasonably hard.
  12. My Night Widow is named "Agent von Zant" since IIRC "Operative von Zant" was a couple characters too long for the name box when I got generic'd. My Crab Spider is a demonically possessed/mutated freak whose spider arms/spiderbots are spider-based demonic entities, called "Materspite."
  13. Not to mention "three minions=1 hero" has never really been true.

    No. Mask Presence gives the specific "hidden" status, and stealth the pool power, stealth IOs, Super Speed, Group Invisibility, etc. do not. The only ways to get "hidden" status is 1) take a Hide/Mask Presence power and 2) use Placate.

    OH DEAR GOD YES. Even better if they do this for EVERY foe intangible (which admittedly is only D. shift and black hole) I'd be SO happy.
  16. Updated to latest nvidia drivers (which were the ones I already had installed), restarted twice, and finally said "what the hell" and tried unplugging the moden and router both for a couple minutes. THAT fixed it.
  17. I dunno what the reason is, but I got this same issue today after swapping phone companies/ISPs at the office. I can connect to Test server no problem, but the main City server is a no go.

    Best Chainsaw Suggestion Ever.

    You can have my chainsaw bayonets when you pry them from my COLD DEAD HANDS Steamy! Give me chainsaw bayoonets or give me... not chainsaw bayonets!
  19. I've been saying since the first time I did that arc that we should get access to those pieces for our VEATs. /signed, baby! Let spiders get into the days of mojo!

    2. Talk to the neigborhood detective.
    3. Do three radio missions.
    4. Stop the Atlas Park heist.
    5. Enjoy your new low-level travel power for the next 13 levels.


    Alternative steps if you don't actually like playing the game:

    1. Create new character and choose Atlas Park as your starting zone.
    2. Go to Rikti War Zone, available through Atlas Park.
    3. Go back through the portal you just came out of, heading to Perigrine Island.
    4. Swim around Perigrine Island to Portal Corps. Sneak around until you get inside the middle building (or ask a friendly hero in zone to TP you).
    5. Go to Firebase Zulu.
    6. Spend 10,000 inf. at the Jetpack Vendor for a 2 hour raptor pack.
    Fixed.

  22. Dear God yes! They don't even have to be insanely longer, just five characters would go a LONG way! Please please please add some characters to the "name" field limit!

  23. Because I've used /bind \ "afk, Emoting...$$beginchat /em " successfully for years now?
