Quote:The only time it works like this is with Henchmen, ie a Henchman with that proc would need tou use a DefDebuff power for it to fire.Originally Posted by SaintTzu
For example, if an Achilles' Heel -Res proc is slotted in, say, Empty Clips, will it proc with any selection of ammo, or only with Standard? -

Secondaries have tier 9s, too.

How did you deal with the Healing Nictus, separate it from rommie, or out-DPS it?

Isn't turning the notification On, and clicking once easier than having to set:

/unsigned for overcomplicating a system that works fine.
To the first point: Just add a check box that says "Automatically combine enhancements" to the combine window. If it's checked, no combine window, just a "Success" or "Failure" pop-up. Turning off the auto-combine would be possible from the Options window. But don't completely take away a system that some people may want to keep using. -
Once GR is out, I'll probably never roll another scrapper, unless I really want a set that brutes don't have access to, like Broadsword/Katana.

Quote:Again, Why 34?Originally Posted by Rodion
When you exemp missions at level 30-34 in Ouroboros you are forced to be level 34. The only way you can exemp to level 27 is is you find someone who happens to be at level 27. That means when you're running level 34 missions from Ouro, you'll have access to your level 38 power. For many characters the level 38 power is an important one (especially farming tanks who desperately need that last attack).
TFs/SFs will exemp you to 25, 30, or 35, I believe.
If you keep your Teir 9 all the way to 27, tha means that you'd have it when exemping to 29 for 25-29 Flashbacks, or to 30 for most TFs, or to 28 for Moonfire.
But in all those cases, you'd keep your T9, but lose your level 34 set bonuses. -
Quote:DB/SR is really good, but solo, you're going to hate the first 30 levels or so.Originally Posted by xLoganx_NA
Talking strictly solo and occasional pvp, which of the following Dual Blades characters do you think would work best:
DB/WP Scrapper
DB/SR Scrapper
DB/Inv Scrapper
WP/DB Tank
Inv/DB Tank
DB/WP and WP/DB are tight builds, because you'll want most of the powers from each set. It will probably be the easiet ride to 50 though.
DB/Inv and Inv/DB will be the easiest to find powers to skip or put off until later, meaning that you'll have less of the "I need four different powers that are available, but can only pick one" situations.
I, personally, wouldn't pick any of the tank choices, because I dislike the low damage and the "tank playstyle", even though I love the high defense and resists.
Since I don't PVP, I could be way off base, but I've heard that DB stinks for PVP. Hopefully, someone with PVP experience can confirm or deny that. -
I wouldn't exactly call him "Patriotic", but the Comedian from the Watchmen wore what could be called a patriotic costume, after he dropped the horrible yellow jumpsuit.

Quote:Your Teir 9 in your primary is unlocked at level 32. Therefore, you can exemplar as low as 27 and keep access to it. Where are you getting 34 from?Originally Posted by Rodion
I often exemp missions at 34, but don't go lower because I don't have my Tier 9 primary. In that case, you could go as high as 39 and still produce recipes people can use exemped at level 34.

We'll miss you Niv!

Quote:This was also the first (or maybe second?) Double XP Weekend with Super sidekicking. Why didn't you grab one of those high level toons and join a lowbie team?Originally Posted by SkyRocker
I think this was the worst (for me) of all the double-XP weekends. Not enough high level teams.
*snip*
I think that the problem was introducing new powersets along with the 2xp, everyone (myself included, for a bit) was pretty focused on playing the new powersets and, I at least, didn't find too many higher level teams playing at all.
I give this 2xp weekend a C- -
Quote:I deactivated my second account for nearly 4 months, and when I reactivated it, still had items on the market on several characters.Originally Posted by Ironblade
That is not definitely known. What is certain is that your consignment items will never be deleted as long as your account is active. We don't know whether:
1) Transactions over 60 days old on an inactive account are deleted.
OR
2) Transactions on an account over 60 days inactive are deleted.
We don't know whether the 60 days counts from visiting Wentworth's or when your account goes inactive. But we definitely know your goods are safe indefinitely as long as your account is active.
So what we know is:
-Your items and bids on the market will not be deleted as long as your account remains active.
-Your items and bids on the market might eventually be deleted some day, if your account becomes inactive. -
Quote:Other way around. Posi said we'd be able to act as "gun runners", carrying enhancements, salvage and the like from one side to the other, but that we'd only be able to trade with and access the market of the side we were currently affiliated with.Originally Posted by Westley
During HeroCon I'm pretty sure that they said that Rogues and Vigilantes will be able to "ferry" influence and infamy to the other side, or something like that. But only inf, not any products.
Others have told me that he said that Inf would not transfer from one side to the other (implying that you would either have two separate totals, or that it would reset to 0 when you switch sides, though neither was explicitly stated), but if he did, it didn't make it into any of the videos or podcasts I watched. -
Yeah, my "Bull" comment was aimed not at the ratio, but at the likelyhood of getting enough kills to generate 1k purples in 2 days. It works out to 11.5 kills per second, before factoring in zoning, moving from one enemy to the next, sleeping, peeing, eating, clearing inventory, and any number of other not-killing-stuff actions.

Quote:And if you're 25+, Ouroboros will take you to both Independence Port and Founders Falls.Originally Posted by Fleeting Whisper
That would give you Independence Port and Founder's Falls, since all the other zones with tailors already have markets (use the BM/WW teleporter) or are in Pocket D (VIP Teleporter). Both IP and FF are on the Green Line, and the Green Line is right next to the Talos Island WW, so you could teleport to TI and use the Green Line there.

Quote:I assume that your Charged Rounds would add energy damage, and be electric themed? If so, I like the idea - Electric is easily my favorite element in this game.Originally Posted by MedievalMayhem
Hey all I was just thinking, and I came up with another round type I'd like to see with DP. How about "Charged Rounds" with a -end, and chance to stun effect? I personally think it would be a great addition to the set rounds, and I like stun effects personally.
any other thoughts?
However, stuns aren't a typical effect for electric. Only a couple attacks, like Lightning Clap, have stun. Most have Sleep, and usually a fairly low chance.
This isn't the right place for a suggestion, though. I suggest clicking the scales under your name on the original post, and asking a mod to move this to the Suggestions forum in the report box. -
Quote:That would make no sense at all.Originally Posted by ThugOne
It might make more sense to code it up such that only SG members see the bought billboards. To be an effective inf sink, you'd need to sell this to a *lot* of people, and that way you can sell the same billboard to all the SG's. Which would make it more of an ego-stroking than an ad campaign.
Would you pay millions of Inf to fund a recruiting drive for your SG, that only people who are already in the SG could see?
To Necrotech: The tech is already in place to put real-world ads on the bilboards. That means that all they'd have to implement is a way to pay for the bilboard, and a way to upload the image.
Come to think of it, they'd have to implement a review panel for the uploaded images to make sure it didn't turn into City of Genitals, so even though it would be more work up front, it would probably be less in the long run to give us an in-game editor with various fonts and clip art to work with. -
Quote:Are you saying that Elegost's hilt is longer than mine is?Originally Posted by Muon_Neutrino
Katana didn't get the broadsword or dual blades ones because neither of those models has a hilt long enough to accomodate two hands, which is required for the katana animations. BS and dual blades got the katana one because having too *long* of a hilt isn't a problem, but having too *short* of one is.

Quote:Originally Posted by Demobot
I heard some anecdotal evidence that the drop rate had been increased. Someone claimed he had killed 2 million enemies between Thursday (after 2XP had been activated) and Friday and claimed the drop rate was 1:2000.
If he killed 2 million enemies in two days, and the drop rate was 1:2000, that means that, in two days, he got 500 purples per day.
Bull crap. -
Quote:Performance Shifter isn't bugged. It works exactly as it is meant to: It gives Endurance to the target when it procs. In Stamina, the target is you. In Speed Boost, the target is your teammate. In Accelerate Metabolism, the targets are you and all nearby teammates. And in Lightning Bolt, the target is the enemy. Obviously, the proc wasn't intended to be used in attacks, even though it is possible to use it there.Originally Posted by Col_Blitzkrieger
Who exactly does this give endurance to when used in powers like Twilight Grasp and Transference, and how much of it?
[Edit-Clarification]
1) Is this also bugged in the sense that it'll give endurance back to the targeted enemy like that one EndMod proc, or does it work properly?
2) Will it have a chance to give +end only to the caster, or everyone in the Heal radius?
The Theft of Essence proc is totally different though. It is meant to go into an attack - that means that you will always be targeting an enemy with it. This proc is set to grant +End to the caster. That means that it will never affect an enemy, nor will it ever affect a teammate.
However, in a power like Transference, it will try to proc on you when you cast it, then when the pseudopet casts its power that causes the heal, the proc will try to fire on the pet. The second proc is useless, but that is how it works. -
Quote:Not quite. You can't get more than 5 copies of a bonus with the same name.Originally Posted by Godpants
Your last statement is correct. You cannot get the same numerical IO set bonus more than five times, no matter where it comes from.
That's 5 each of Small, Moderate, Large, Huge, Ultimate, and Luck of the Gambler.
This is relevant because Huge and Luck of the Gambler both grant 7.5% recharge, but since they have different names, you can have up to 5 of each and be in the clear.
Note that when I say "names", I mean the names of the bonus, not the set that grants the bonus. Check your Attributes Monitor to see the names of the bonuses.
EDIT: Weird, when I posted this reply, Adeon's response wasn't there, even though he posted it almost an hour and a half before me.... -
Quote:That's because the market defaults to show only recipes that have bids and/or sales available. Find the dropdown that says "Bidding or Selling" near the typing field and set it to "All".Originally Posted by Noyjitat
Both for crafted and uncrafted and for some reason their is not an option to set a buy order on them.

I'm almost ashamed to admit that I just made a DP blaster in an old-style suit with the flintlocks and named him "Duel Pistols".
I'm also surprised that the name wasn't taken!
