Quote:None at all, whatsoever. And until last night, I had no problem with the ticket vendor either. I thought that perhaps the new patch might have borked them up somehow. I'm pretty puzzled if this is an on-going thing for other people, and a brand spanking new bug for me.Originally Posted by AnotherDeadHero
I have had that problem many many times. I get a bit of a sound loop and boom the game crashes.
Let me ask you this, are you having any other connection or lag issues? -
At first I was going to title this something like "AE breaking the game" but then I knew how THAT would be taken. Anyways, 3 or 4 times tonight when I bought recipes and salvage with tickets, the game would stop responding and I had to restart it. Anyone else having this problem, or might it be something on my end?

Ok, I've paid closer attention to Dasbert's build, was well as taking some of Igor's advice. I managed to work in Earth's Embrace, at the expense of SP (which I find I don't use so much when farming anyways). Here's the new, improved me!

I don't know if this will help or not, but the board was rejecting my avatar because the .IMG extention was in upcase letters, not lowercase like it wanted it to be. I had to rename the file to get it to work.
-
I find myself sticking with common IO's till the mid-30's, I guess because I've had a hard time finding the enhancements I want in the past at lower ranges. So, I'm Tealeaf and I approve of your message!
Please do let us know how it turns out for you. -
I've suggested a "Little Black Book" reward in the past. With this, you get the phone numbers of all contacts in the game and can call them at will. The ones that are in your level range are in your "active contact" tab. They'll all talk to you without you having to go see them in person, even once, because they can sense that you're a "very old soul".
Pretty please? -
Well, I was strongly influenced by Das Bert in the first place, perhaps I shouldn't have strayed as I did. I can respec to get exactly has he built and slotted. But for my level 49 pick I still think I'd go with Super speed rather than Inertial Reduction because I perfer to race along not looking for something to Siphon Speed from rather than bounce around. But I see that he doesn't have Earth's Embrace. While the survivaliblity of extra hitpoints sound very nice, I'm not sure what I could drop to make room for it. I'm kinda leary of dropping any of the earlier powers/slotting since I'm not really enough of a numbers cruncher to figure out to maintain the soft-capped defense.
-
I dislike sig pics myself. I just don't like having to scroll past them over and over again. But it seems to me that just disabling images is a more productive way to deal with this issue than neg rating people.
-
I very much enjoy the look of the new forums, and since I bookmarked the "english" page the setup is pretty much as it was for me. I also had to disable my ability to see images because I found the signature pictures to be annoying. That done, I have no major complaints.
-
Debt badges also don't apply. I had to explain this several times this weekend.
-
Some people, maybe not most but certainly some, get very myoptic when it comes to experience.
I had a "So bad it was funny" experience this weekend. I was on my level 34 willpower/mace tanker, and advertise that I was looking for a team. I get invited into a group of six and we dive into the AE. I started to get a bad feeling when the leader and someone else got into an arguement that it was better to have six than a full team because some had told him that that's what best for optium experience.
I see a sea of purple 54 bosses, I didn't even look to see what I was bumped up to. I knew I would be folding quickly unless I had some expectional support. But, I hope for the best and dive in, and as expected promply die. I hopital and come back, and we try again with similar results. The leader starts mocking me for my "interesting tanking strategy, lol". I tell him that the bosses are all purple, and get "They're supposed to be, that's the best exp, lol." I say that level 30'ish tanks generally don't do well against 20 or so purple bosses without the support of a some buffers or debuffers. "This team size is best for exp, lol."
Ok, I'm annoyed. I've never liked the "lol" thing. I wonder if people who do that are really laughing out loud like idiots after everything they type, or if they just want to give the impression that they are. In this situation, it just seemed like the guy was talking down to me. "I don't feel like dying repeatedly because you're afraid of having a full team, lol. Bye." He has time to respond with a pithy "..." while I one star and note him before I quit out.
Ya, getting a big fat chunk of experience is nice, but not if the team had several wipes and took over twenty minutes to get it. Even without the wipes, sometimes the higher level mobs just isn't going to be worth the trouble. -
A very good announcement. I've seen hotlinked images on other forums replaced by the victim with some truly horrific pics. The sort of thing that could get someone banned in very short order. And I can't really say that I disaprove of this tactic, either.
-
I wish there were an option to just get mail from people from your friends list and SG.
-
I'll actually be a bit sorry when the do manage to fix the chat bug and make it stick, because I'll no longer be able to blame the devs when my kitten plays "death from above" with my fingers as I chat.
-
I remember when the old forums had stars. There were mulitiple "Plz 5 star meh!" posts, as well as a few outraged "I lost a star" rants. If anyone posted that they felt a particular power or powerset was overpowered or unbalanced in terms of the rest of the powers of that AT, then they could expect to be a one starrer in very short order. It differed in that there was no way to shut off the star rates by the user.
Eventually the forum gods removed the stars altogether, for everyone. I have a feeling that if people get as obessed about their repuation as they did about the stars, the same thing might happen again. -
I've read several of the posts and guides here in this section of the forums, and I've decided build my very own powerhouse fire/kin. Below is what I've come up with. I'm fairly poor so there are no purples, and to be honest it will be a while before I can lay hands on some of the uniques I have listed, so I'll probably be using a fair number of common IO's till I can get what I've listed.
Luminal is right now level 49, and I do have a couple of vetspecs. My attack chain with her right now is to open with Flashfire, run in with Hot Feet and the Imp, hit us all with Fulcrum Shift, then Firecages, then Fissure, and Char whatever is still trying to kill me.
I'd like to think I haven't made any glaring mistakes, but I've been wrong about that sort of thing in the past. Any input or advice would be greatly appreciated!

Oh, right on top, where I couldn't possibly miss it. D'oh, and thanks.
I hope I get to keep my forum user name! -
Ok, I looked for this in the announcements sections and didn't see any breaking news on this. Do we exactly when this is going to happen?
-
Grats!
-
Congratulations, Fulmens. I've never said this about another player in an MMO before, but you have truly delivered shock and awe.
I have a feeling that some time in the future we'll be treated to an indignate post from someone who tries to buy all the luck charms, or even just a few when they are scarce and gives up around 500 million. "The market is clearly broken! Ebils have ruined it!"
Well done sir. -
Another satisfied customer reporting in.
My two man base now has teleporters to all available zones. Thanks Fulmans! Would have taken us at least a month or so longer to get to that point were it not for the prestige matching thing. -
Pretty sure that "wasting" in this context is not the same as "destroying". If you are using the influence to by stuff, then someone else is getting 90% of it to spend elsewhere. I believe that Fulmens is trying to create an influence sink, and reduce the total amount of influence in the game, not just pass it around.
-

So, have you noticed any of the effect that you were hoping for when you started this project? -
Nope, we were trying to let you know that your chosen manner of expression was hard to read and annoying. Sure, that annoyed you, but that's not trolling. Unless, I guess, you stick to the "Trolling is anything I don't like or agree with" definination. If that is the case, well, no sense arguing, since you'd take that as trolling as well.
I do see that I was unclear about one thing though. I wasn't saying that you wrote in wall'o'text or horrendenous grammar. I was just using those as examples of other things that other people have done on these forums, and received a similar response to your colored text. My apologies for causing the misunderstanding.
