What's the Marketing Dept's plan for getting more subscribers?

Will we ever be able to buy game related swag without having to be physically present at a convention? You know, because a lot more of us wearing T-shirts around town with spiffy attention grabbing graphics is typically easy to implement and pays for itself.

Personally, I feel that Epics shouldn't be unlocked until you've got at least 3 other ATs to 30. I haven't played a VEAT yet, but I found the Kheldians (Warshade, no PeaceBringers yet) to be very complicated. It required the cummulative experience from all my characters' time to figure out a playstyle for it, not to mention, how to build it. Frankly, I haven't created a PB yet because I don't want to deal with that again.

I peruse OneManga myself, but only because it was the first one I was introduced to so I'm used to its navigation.

I'm going to assume, you know to be at Port Oakes. Go to the Marconeville waypoint on your Map. You will see stairs leading up to a plaza, go up on to it. On your right is some gazing pools, ignore them. On your left is a tall building, you will see doors. Go in those doors.

Hami-Os on blue and Synthetic Hami-Os on red.

Way, way back in the day, wasn't Mutation supposed to put you into a stunned state after its buffs crashed? I vaguely recall reading that in the original manual, but I'm at work and can't check it now. I was too much of a newb then to pay attention to all the effects and by the time I was interested, the mez was removed.

Cameo (sorta) in Evil Inc webcomic.

In regards to the Henchmen-less MM, I'm not following the rules exactly as I understood it when the concept playstyle was proposed, ie using only your non-henchmen powers from your powersets and pools only. The damage is so pitiful and the endurance cost is so high, that over time I started to use my 3 vet attacks and my vet buff pet. The buff pet right there probably disqualified me and the vet attacks are a significant advantage over someone with less vet time. Still, I am solo. Although, I was doing a bit more street sweeping that missions when I last got any significant XP, which was two Double-XP weekends ago. I made a significant effort to get Stamina.

I was finally able to hit 1 Billion Inf on my rarely played Henchmen-less Mastermind. It was a long road to get to this point.

This character made its first multi-millions vendoring Common Range IOs as a single digit level character dodging the level 20s in Sharkhead running back and forth between the Market and the Quartermaster. Eventually the tedium got to me and I started to experiment with crafting Set IOs to sell.

I found a small niche to experiment with and was really surprised when I hit 100 Million Inf. It took a while, but it was a major milestone for me. I've never held more than 40 or so million on any character before and those were pre-Market bank rolls. There was a long pause after this as I used half of it to outfit my Brute who was nearing 50 at the time. Nothing fancy, just got the Sets that I've found that I liked. I used most of the rest to get spares of these Sets to stock my Base for the future.

After seeing the rest of you, especially the snot-nosed newbies, showing off their Billionaires, I figured it was time to get off my butt and prove that I had it in me too. I tried several niches over several months and eventually settled on one. I didn't get any big lottery wins, but I was able to move inventory fairly consistantly and the cost of the rare salvage wasn't cutting too much into my profits. I wasn't playing this character so I had to buy everything.

Now that I've achieved my goal, I'll probably just sell out what I have on hand and pass the niche to another character to work. As it happens, I have two other characters closing in on their first Billion too. If luck holds out, perhaps they can hit it this month or next.

If you expect to do toe bombing, you should really consider getting Grant Invis so you can hide the FFG or it'll give you away when you approach your enemies. Then while you're at the Concealment pool, you may want to consider picking up Stealth for another couple of points or so of +def (remember half of it goes away after you are aggroed).

I also recommend getting Leadership for the extra +def from Maneuvers. And, of course, Tactics is great to have too.

I'm very aggressive, so I needed Stamina from Fitness.

So that's 3 pools. I leave the fourth up to you for your perferred method of travel. You can go Speed to get Hasten and Superspeed for stealth, or Combat Jump for more +def. I went with Fly because I like Fly.

In regards to Caltrops, I really like Caltrops. It provides a nice area denial space for you to stand in the middle of while you do your shooting. Plus, you don't have to allocate any additional slots to it if you don't want to and it'll still work great.

The Shadow Shard is the only place you can kill/defeat enemies with a plain Web Grenade (or some other -Fly power).

I was thinking it might have been the lumbermill in Cap.

The only thing of significance was joining a Dr Q saturday night. It was old school PUG, by which I mean:
- First drop out after the second mission. His reason: because it was taking longer than expected, even though he joined off the global channel. The channel where the (never done Dr Q before) leader spent half an hour recruiting and everyone telling him how crazy he was due to its length.
- Second drop out disappeared without a word.
- Third drop out went afk to eat supper "real quick" and never came back.
- Fouth stayed with us for 2/3rds of the run before disappearing, also without any warning which really surprised us

It was a tough slog. I was a Traps/Ice Def, along with 2 Scrappers (one was the leader and the other was a multi-year vet) and a Peacebringer (only a year plus, but said he's done Dr Q before). We finished it just under 8 hours, at about 4am my time. I forgot to take a look at the count for number of defeats, but it must have been huge. The last mission in particular was completed by brute force attrition. We were making so many runs back from the Hospital and I emptied half my Base's meager store or medium Inspirations even though I was trying not to use them so quickly. I got 4 levels out of it, 41-->45. I also got the 2nd Damage badge along with the 5th AND the 6th Debt badges. I received the 4th Debt badge only the day before.

By the way, don't by your enhancements from your Contacts. They rip you off by charging more than a regular store. You can see where the regular stores are on you mini-map as a "$" (note: they may be an NPC standing out in the open or inside a building).

Note: in COV, there are actually store NPC who are up on rooftops. If so, you can enter the building they're on and you'll see elevator doors in the lobby. Click on the elevator doors to get to the rooftop. Or you can just Fly or Super Jump up.

A viral video like this would have been a great way to promote COH.

Wow. Didn't anyone suggest that the Blaster log out and back in to switch leadership?

I've seen a post in the Market board before. I think it was to sell the SG and I vaguely recall that someone did take him up on it.

Stepping off a roof top before activating Fly for a cushy swoop. And alternately, jumping up before activating Fly for a quicky swoop.

I also like being surprised when I get ping-ponged by a fortuitously sequenced set of knockbacks.

This is a trip. I made one for cat = http://en.tackfilm.se/?id=1267682187589RA88

There are 2 types of cards:

- Game card = to open an game account, includes time
- Time card = to add time to an existing game account

From what you're saying, it seems you bought a Time Card to add 60 days of game time. Just hang on to it for later.

You need to either buy a Game card or a boxed game to upgrade your Trial account with. Check around, you can get a boxed game pretty cheap. Example: at Amazon. Each boxed game is the same game. The differences between them are just the extra perks (which you can also buy separately if you want).
