I'm not sure whether Air Blast is a good idea for a powerset.

You know, we already have a powerset that could be called Air Blast: Sonic Attack. (Sound is just motion in the air, after all.) In order for Air Blast to be a different powerset, maybe it should rather be Weather Blast, or something like that?

When the ancillary power pools were proliferated to villains, stalkers gained access to the Body Mastery pool. The scrappers' version of Body Mastery includes the Conserve Power power. Back then, scrappers didn't have access to the Energy Aura powerset, but stalkers did, and back then, Energy Aura also included Conserve Power.

The developers didn't want certain charas to be able to learn two copies of the same power, so the stalkers' version of Body Mastery was changed to include a passive power instead of Conserve Power. By now, Energy Aura was proliferated to scrappers and also got a makeover, losing Conserve Power for Energize in the process, but the ancillary power pools weren't changed.

Superior Conditioning works very similar to the accolade power The Atlas Medallion, it increases your maximum endurance (unslotted) by 5 (and therefore also boosts your recovery slightly). If your stalker has endurance problems, this power might help you. Also, if you don't want Focused Acurracy, Superior Conditioning can be an easy prerequisite for Physical Perfection, which increases both your regeneration and your recovery.

I usually don't PvP that much, but since some charas of mine just migrated to Champion, I'd be interested in joining you.

If a team member is eligible to earn XP for a defeat caused by another team member, that team member is also eligible for any badges associated with that defeat.

So yes, you need to be in the same zone and close enough to the fight for Sally's "defeat" to count towards your badge, but you're not required to hit her yourself.

I'll answer your questions from my point of view, if I may.

That is not a new bug. I experienced it last year.

Completely clearing your phone's browser's cache usually helps, but that drastic measure might not be necessary. I found that logging into another forum account also resets the relevant entries.

So, logging into a different account, then back into your account will cause your phone to remember that you successfully logged in.

If you don't have a second account, you can create one for free. (Having two game accounts has its advantages, too.)

I guess now we know why the Praetorian sewers always look so much cleaner than the primal ones...

Anyway. FUN! Looking at so much water never was better! (Luckily, my chara had added rubber boots and the bubble helmet to his outfit, so logging out dry wasn't too much of a challenge, either.)

Thanks, superteam!

Oh, and Phil: We're goldside.

Change at least one costume piece along with your powers for the game to actually save the changes.

The steampunk backpack might also fit some concepts for water blasting charas.

Edit: Oh, 500th post.

I'll be there with my rad/rad defender, if there's still room. (Or, if you need anything else, let me know.)

10joy

I'll join the MoDD; and I'll help out for MoBAF if needed.

In that case, I recommend creating a second game account into your existing master account. That way, you don't need to use a new e-mail address or password. (Your second game account's name needs to be different from your first account's, of course.)

Log into your master account, and then click on "NCsoft store" and select the City of Heroes(R) tab. Either buy the City of Heroes Freedom™ (Europe) VIP Starter Kit (that's a link), or click on City of Heroes Freedom™ (Europe) FREE * (no link, because that has no product ID and works only inside your account).

With that, you can set up a new European account in your master account.

You won't be able to transfer any characters from your first account to your second, but you could still use your first account as a premium account whenever you feel the need.

No, sorry, you're stuck. That's an US account. It has nothing to do with the game; the game client (the software from Paragon Studios) has been the same since they merged the server lists. The difference is at PlayNC's side. (Note that PlayNC and Paragon Studios are two different entities.)

Unfortunately, it's not possible to convert PlayNC accounts. Some years back they discontinued the service to transfer your characters from an US account onto a new European account. Since there are no paysafecards in the United States, PlayNC has no reason to offer that service for US accounts.

EDIT: It won't hurt to ask; you could still ask the PlayNC billing customer service whether they can enable payment by paysafecard for your account, and hope for the best.

10joy

Well, when you select your account, does it read "City of Heroes Freedom™ (Europe)", or just "City of Heroes Freedom™" in the top left corner of the account management page?

10joy

Yes, you can buy points as well as extend your VIP subscription with paysafecards, provided that you aren't using an US account.

1. Log into your PlayNC account.
2. Click onto your CoH account in the right-hand column.
3. Select "buy more points" (or upgrade to VIP).
4. Choose the amount of points you want to buy.
5. Paysafecard should be one of the payment options listed. Click on "Buy with Paysafecard".
6. You will be redirected to the Paysafecard website.
7. Check the box to indicate that you accept the business terms of the service.
8. Enter the code from your paysafecard. If you want to use more than one card, click on "Enter more PINs" (or the Dutch or French equivalent, whichever you use).
9. Confirm the payment.
10. You are returned to your account page and PlayNC will process your purchase.

The paysafecard server stores the amount of money that's left on a particular paysafecard, so if you buy, say, a 25 euro card, and spend 15 euro of it, you can still use the remaining 10 euro the next time you want to buy something. Also, it's possible to use several cards to pay for a single purchase, so you don't lose anything.
