Of course there is a limit, have 4+ posts in a row can get obnoxious... especially if the person doesn't quote what it is they are responding to. -

Yeah... If you're complaining about your endurance before DOs and SOs, then you're right up there with everyone else. The only builds that don't have some kind of endurance woes pre-20/22 are */Regen Scrappers because they get super early Quick Recovery and incredibly low endurance costs otherwise.
I made a Stone/Mace Tanker... and lets just say I have to juggle which toggles stay on so that he doesn't faceplant when they drop... Not to mention just standing around in a spawn once and awhile. But, I know it will get better when I hit 12, and even better once 20 and then 22 roll around. Hang in there, that combo should be awesome post 22 and more so after [Power Sink]. -

I agree in a big way. One of the capital reasons I'm still here is the interaction we have with the development team, and how much it feels like they keep doing things solely and specifically to please ME. Oh, sure, I know I'm a nobody on a message board and they try to please as many people as they can, but the mere fact that I can feel like a lot of the changes are made specifically for me means a LOT in my book.
Positron promised they would give players what they want, within reason, and I have to say they have delivered monumentally well on this promise. I've not played another game where it felt like the development team was as much part of the community, as understanding and as reactive. We say "But we WANNA!!!" and they come here and explain why it can't happen, why it might happen but at a later time, that it's already being worked on, or say nothing and it pops into the game a month or two later.
Frankly, I'm sticking to this game as much for its development team as I am for the actual game. Just goes to show that cool, talented people make a difference.

I think all of the new "stances" or idle emotes, or whatever you call them, are awesome and add a lot in the way of flavor to the game. Great job BaB and minions (or whoever did that).
Sucks that there is a glitch with one of them already. -

I dont think a name change would be needed mainly cause it would probley confuse alot of ppl with all the diffrent names

Quote:It is not true, and therefore you cannot do it.Originally Posted by midnightwatchman
I was under the impression that when Issue 16 was released that the ability to re-choose Power sets would be available. Is this true and if so how do I do it?
I have no idea from where you got that impression. Nothing like that has been even suggested by the Devs. -
I couldn't find any mention of that on http://wiki.cohtitan.com/wiki/Main_Page (bookmark this, it is your friend), but I didn't do an exhaustive search either.
I do not think that having 4 pools will lock you out of the Ancillary or Patron Power Pools, though as stated above, I am not 100% sure as I have never taken that many pools before. -
Quote:I just experienced this today, and /bugged it. The really annoying part was the lack of Insp drop upon leveling.Originally Posted by Clouded
The other night I was running around on my level 13 Brute. I was SSK down to level 10 while we ran some paper missions towards the temp travel powers for the leader and others.
I noticed that I leveled twice during our many missions but not once did I actually "ding" or see any graphics indicating that I had leveled up. I didn't even get any Level-Up inspirations. I only noticed I had leveled when I exited the mission and saw the Green Arrow in my level indication circle thingy.
This is the first time I've noticed this issue and I was not the only one on the team experiencing the issue.
Anyone else experience this bug? Is is a known issue? -
Quote:That is a good point that didn't initially cross my mind. Wouldn't that be partially counteracted by the kind of aggro that a Spiner can draw?Originally Posted by Enamel_32
I assumed he was referring to the lack of a single target attack chain... for a long time.

Quote:I assume you are referring to the -Rech secondary effect? The oft quoted reason that Ice did not make it to Brutes in CoV Beta?Originally Posted by Weatherby Goode
Have fun building fury.
I refer you to Dark Armor which literally makes it impossible for some enemies to attack, and it is available for Brutes. (I won't argue that that set is optimal, but there is a precedent for counter-Fury powers(ets) existing on Brutes.) -

First off, I recommend that you bookmark http://wiki.cohtitan.com/wiki/Main_Page it has a wealth of information including the answer to the question you asked.
The items required are either the arcane Oracle or the tech Mission Computer. Either of these will need to be placed in a Control Room and are "auxilliary" items, meaning that they must be placed in the same room that a "main" control item is in (the requirements are listed in detail on the linked pages).
Information on the actual Strike Force can be found here. I have done this SF on my Huntsman, I must say that the final mission is rather obnoxious... and I hope you like to kill... err, defeat Sky Raiders. -
Quote:I'm not sure that is entirely true.Originally Posted by cursedsorcerer
Actually, I did have an idea for a Mastermind-like Hero archetype, but honestly, with Going Rogue coming out, I now don't think it's necessary.
While GR will certainly reinvent AT distribution, I don't think it means that making new and different ATs should be axed. There is certainly room for some new AT combinations, and post-GR each one added will actually do twice as much "work" as they did before. -
Welcome to the game!! Glad your question was answered quickly. (Though it is a newb mistake, it is certainly one A LOT of new players make, so don't feel like you are an idiot or anything.)
Quote:Gar, my slots on Infinity are slowly getting full... I think it may be time for me to purchase some more... though I am loathe to do it. Maybe I should just starting rolling Alts on Justice or something?!Originally Posted by Prof_Backfire
And you get extra slots from playing for a long time, and you can buy even more... -
Quote:I have found this as well.Originally Posted by Netwyrm
I won't team with people who can't express their thoughts coherently in written form.
It's a terrible failing on my part, I know, but I've found it impossible to dismiss the high level of correlation between people who ask "Would you like to join level 35+ in Brickstown?" and an enjoyable PUG, and those who begin with "wana tem?"
I also am kind of a name snob. I have found that "Ebony Guard" is more likely to be an effective member than "black nite-." Just something I have come across... -

Not to mention that ALL critter TPers have had the annoying ability to teleport to places that are NOT in their LOS. The aggro-ing to you from another room thing is certainly odd, not something I have ever seen before.
With regard to the Lost issue? I would be willing to bet that it is a bug.
P.S. The initialism you are looking for is WAI (working as intended). -
Quote:Agreed. Very nice on both fronts.Originally Posted by Carnifax
Two really nice ideas. I've thought about having Pets as a secondary set before, and giving Defenders melee (or Assult) sets but these are really excellently thought through and fleshed out for each side.
Nice work. Me wants both please Devs.
It fills the desire for Hero MMs and also the issue of not having a balance in AT introduction by coming up with a AT for the villains to toy with. Pretty much every base is covered in the above, and all I have to say is: WOW, that must have taken some time to compile! -

Guess what?
How 'bout you /bug each of the missions that you encounter that has this issue? That might actually get things done. It is a long tedious chore to wade through hundreds of missions and check each and every objective to see if it is properly spelled out or not.
Coming to the forums and whining about it won't get anything accomplished if you can't/won't provide the specifics.
However, I do agree that it can be annoying, but it has never annoyed me enough to post about it here. Also, keep in mind that phrasing a post so that it is only really directed at a Dev is not necessarily advantageous, as I am not sure how often Devs read through this section. It is mainly other players who look and help out in this section. -

Someone needs to request this be stickied (I'm so out of the loop that I don't know who does this sort of thing any more).
Also, regarding the OP... my only criticism may be to change some instances of the word "need" to "want" as I think that would go along with the general idea of your post a bit better.
But, I am so glad someone has decided to put this down in a cohesive format.
Agreed on all counts. -
Quote:I too heard this. Praetoria will offer a new "early game" entirely, and consist of several zones. Soooo, if I had to guess, I would say that you can start at Lvl 1 (Neutral) in Praetoria and work on gaining alignment points as you level, at some point you will be considered a Hero/Villain and gain access to the appropriate zones in addition to access to Praetoria.Originally Posted by Ultimus
I cannot find the source but I recall they mentioned there is going to be a new starting zone. (I believe it was at the last Hero Con or Comic Con, whatever event just passed) -- This new starting zone will be home to rogue heroes/villains at level 1.
If the character already exists, or is made a Hero/Villain, based on what has been implied by the Devs thus far, I would imagine that gaining enough alignment in one direction or the other would be about a TF or two worth of missions (totally a guess there, but it seems to be what has been implied).
Edit: Pretty much all of the information that has been released is linked to at the bottom of this page. -
Quote:I guess I must play this game differently than some.Originally Posted by LordSunburst
Well had about a week or so to play with changing colors on powers and I have to be honest and say it's limited.
Too limited.
To day I went to make a Corrupter with Fire/Ice powers and I discovered that the powers have a preset color palette that prevent me from doing what I wanted to do. Ice power tints were all set to the cool palette of pale pinks and blues for the most part, and the fire palette where on the warmer end, of deeper colors. My choices where not as expansive as I was expecting. And made it impossible for me to do what this new system was said to I would be allowed to do ie. customize my powers to my theme.
I do believe the devs have to open up the choices in colors to the complete spectrum. (Really wish I had been able to get in on the beta, and caught this before it went live. Ah well)
I hope that in the near future they can fix this so I can make the toon I was trying to make.
When I go to make a new character, I keep in mind what limits the game has imposed on the creation of that character. I then work within that framework to create a concept. It's not that hard.
It is simply not possible to encompass ALL possible character concepts. Someone will always be mad that their perfect concept is unrealizable. I think the Devs did an awesome job of giving option to the players for Issue 16. Then again, I try not to look a gift horse in the mouth, or be overly entitled. In all honesty, they didn't HAVE to give us PC at all.
