Quote:More than one person but not at the same time in the same world except in that one Superman example which was a gimmick.Originally Posted by Johnny_Velocity
You haven't read this whole thread? This was discussed earlier today. Comics have a tradition of more than one person wearing the mantle.
To address your example, there aren't *quite* 35 Superman titles per month, but not too many years ago they each featured a different person with the Superman name. It happened right after "The Death of Superman." It sold like crazy.
Amazingly, not one customer reported being confused. True story.
Seems to me DC has run a series where they killed off their alternate worlds to get rid of duplicates as well. Did you miss that or do you only look at things you think minutely support your assertions? -
Quote:People would farm merits. I know I am "farming" purples and merits (Ouroboros 45-50).Originally Posted by Raccoon_
If they put purples as Merit options (250/300 Merits) it would actually encourage people to...
Dare I say it...
PLAY THE GAME!?
Rather than farm farm, farm, farm farm farm farm
As for the 250/300 merits price you list, I think the devs would laugh in your face. They stated they didn't include merits being able to buy purples because the price would be too high in merits. -
My recipe drops were still the stinky last night.

Futurama's Santa says "Very naughty." He has stopped what he is doing to add it to his list.

I am pretty sure they bumped leveling speed in the pre-20s with I16. Again.
Does it take more than 4 hours to get to 20 now? -
Quote:I've been running Unai's Thousand Worlds Arc through Ouros for weeks now with PI sweeping to break up the repetition and despite my being able to set it for 3 heroes' worth of enemies instead of tenacious I'm seeing about 1/3 my normal recipe drops.Originally Posted by Catwhoorg
An extension of that thought, could certain popular farm maps be set to a poor seed (by design or by accident)?
Check drop rates on say an regular arc series, and then a repeated farm map.
How can I annoy Squez with my globals of receiving purples at this rate? -

Bye
Can I have your stuff then ? -
I wonder how many threads whining about purples the OP will bring us?

In my opinion coming out with accusations like this against regular and frequently helpful players should earn you a board ban.
The market forum regulars are probably the most helpful sub-population (toss up between here and the base builders) if you are actually seeking help and are willing to listen. -

Most of my toons don't have Purples, some don't even have a full set of IO's and no sets. It's just that when you introduce something like this into a game, they need to be obtainable. I do not find them, I have run and run and only had 2 drop. The one's for one toon I have I had to buy and yea that raises the prices.
I never said they were needed. They just should not be so unobtainable.
My warshade has had 7 drop in the past two weeks and I bought 3 others for far less than their last 5 prices were showing by placing my bids and waiting.
So I have obtained them via both means available to us.
And most of mine don't have any purples eithers. Since most of them aren't level 50 and even the 11 50s I do have only 3 have any purples slotted. -
I was looking forward to both but right now I16 has distracted me.

Quote:I'd wait for the weekend to pass before concluding that I16 bumped Virtue and not Freedom but if that ends up being true it does make some sense.Originally Posted by Agonus
Been that way the past few nights, at least from about 10PM EST to 1:30AM. Usually it's the other way around, or both are yellow. Did Freedom get an upgrade or is the CO thing finally showing?
Color customization would be highly desirable to RPers.
SSK diminishes the ability of PLers from prior highs.
So if Freedom had an excess of farming/PLing types and Virtue has an excess of RPers I can see reasons why Virtue would flood back up while Freedom would simply remain strong in population. -
Did you bug it? I cannot imagine they wouldn't want you to get the animations and buff just because you are SSKed.
-
I don't understand why we would want to replace debt which has been weakened to its current state with losing exp.
The players who railed against debt certainly would not prefer to lose exp.
I would hate to lose exp. I hated it in EQ and I would hate it here. -

There are those rare moments of unexpected glee when you half heartedly check a name you know must have been taken, only to get the 'This character name is available' message.

1. coloring my powers (though always sad at the ones that can't yet)
2. adjusting my difficulty
3. SSKing
I'm having a total blast and am overwhelmed by the amount of tailor running I need to do on my way too many alts.
This should keep me occupied for months. -
There is no reason to feel guilty.
High prices are a selling opportunity for people who get drops. So while you and others spend your time flipping, I get to be out blowing up pixelated foes and gathering the drops to bring to market.
If the prices were all as low as the market haters wanted, I'd be vendoring my stuff, I wouldn't have millions on every character, and I wouldn't value IOs in my builds.
Besides your flipping rinses inf through the system twice helping to remove it from the game which is why the devs have market fees in the first place.
You are providing a public service for me and my kind (blow em up and sell the lewt players). -
While I am annoyed at the reduced drop rate I am quite happy with the new difficulty settings. At "-1, =3 heroes, with bosses" meant a lot of bosses in my arc run and I finally got a Pool C drop off a boss.
And To Save a Thousand Worlds bump to 43 from 32 merits is going to net me a lot more rare recipes.
I hope they don't have to mess with spawnings to fix the drop shortage because I can tell getting the right difficulty for my guys is going to be a lot of guesswork for me. -
Quote:This is true but I would point out as far as generating influence goes I make a lot selling my level 50 common IO recipes to the NPCs. While I get more from my market sales of my other drops that is just moving inf from another character and destroying 10% in fees but that NPC selling I do actually creates inf.Originally Posted by peterpeter
I had forgotten about the drop rate issue. That's just for recipes or salvage as well? Anything that drops the supply will put upward pressure on prices.
If this goes on for long enough could it end up being deflationary?
Yes, but no date has been given yet.Quote:Originally Posted by peterpeter

Darn you! Now I want to triple box my accounts in PvP!

Hi,
yes it is because I just logged in but, the Server Status page is still showing all servers down!
It is now eight hours since shut down and I only tried after seeing this thread because of the "Down" status!
Or am I the only one still seeing this status? (Maybe my browser is not refreshing correctly?)
Ah well no matter at least I am in now
Cheers -
You should check out the new difficulty setting options available with Issue 16 as of today.

There has to be something else that could be assigned to them. -
I have no idea what I am going to do first.
I have 21, yes 21, new characters I want to make with the new proliferated powers.
I have I don't know how many characters I want to customize the powers on.
I even have an idea of an AE story I want to do that I have been putting off and maybe I will do it now.
This issue is a big fat sack of win.
Thank you devs!
