    not really conidering it was available to all copied toons since the I15 beta test period.

    They removed the booster from the test server now and you can only get it by having a toon still on the test server that was there for the I15 test (don't quote me on that this what I can recall atm.)

    I quoted you...
  2. Two Options:

    1) Go to a Tailor and click on [Scales] on the side of the screen with the color selection and adjust the slider by Legs (for maximum benefit: make the girl's lower and the guy's higher).

    2) Wait for Super Booster III: Superscience to drop. It will allow you to change your height and other factors more easily.
  3. Marshmallows go GREAT with fire.
  4. I agree with all of the above posters.

    It is your job to make your creations fit the powers that are available via being CREATIVE.

    However, I will not turn down any new powersets that are actually cool.

    I actually hugged mine yesterday... the changes were deffinately noticeable.

    Edit... it also seemed like his run speed was considerably faster than I remembered it being. Did [Mentall Training] get a stealth buff? Maybe I just forgot how fast he moved.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    Sure the buffs were noticeable, I no longer have a continuous attack chain ... better find some more recharge.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    What is this you speak of?

    To me, as long as I can attack... I have an attack chain. Phooey on recharge and mindlessly using the same power order over and over again. Seems a bit too boring to me.

    So sad... playing a newer WM/SD Brute today and one shotting freaks with the new Clobber as they try to rez really reminded me of my also perma-shelved EM/Ela Brute.

    ET had such a mystique about it back in the day.

    Now the only mystery is, "who is going to kill me or steal-kill my target while I animate this crap?"

    [/ QUOTE ]
    Kill stealing? If you are on a team: are you serious?
  7. [ QUOTE ]
    Except that changing your body type is purely cosmetic, and changing your archetype and powersets is dramatically impacting the game directly. They have yet to microtransact that.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    By my definition... they have yet to microtransact ANYTHING.

    See title.

    The reason I ask this is because I see AE mission teams mowing down groups of lvl 54 bosses with very little trouble. With the exception of EB's and AV's, these are the hardest mobs in the game and random PuG's can kill them in groups now.

    With I9 and the invention system, the game has gotten easier than ever. What can be done to make it more challenging? Is the current linear mission system holding it back? Do missions need to be more dynamic in some way? Do mobs need to be harder to kill? More damaging? More CC?

    What do you think needs to be done? Or do you think nothing should be done?

    [/ QUOTE ]
    I know what would make it more challenging... it even directly addresses the reason you state has made it less so: remove set IOs from the game, and grant influence to the effected characters.

    The Progenitor Lichen references Hamidon. Now it's wild speculation, but how could would a Praetorian Hamidon be?

    [/ QUOTE ]
    Is it possible he never turned into a giant blob? Would be interesting if there were a new Hami raid that didn't involve Jello... but instead had some new and different DE threat.
  10. If I had to guess, and I don't, I would surmise that the new Praetorian Salvage is just added to diversify the salvage a bit more... It will probably be mixed with existing salvage for new recipes.

    a...scorch is crazy minor damage..get rid of it.

    If you can remove scorch from a tanker build, I'll be very impressed.

    cause thats what the op is ASKING about...its not about you nub.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    You know, if you are going to insult people... the least you can do is spell the word correctly!

    A nub is a small protrusion from an object.
    A noob is one who doesn't know anything about a game he's been playing long enough to know better, especially if he won't admit it. Also, it is very common for noobs to call other more knowledgeable players noobs (think about it).
  13. NOTE: The roster has been updated!!

    I made a new tank, like a week ago, he's lvl 4... he's named Meanstreet... it's a fire/dark... if i went to icon and darkend his skin a bit... he could be a alt reality version of BAB... I had no real concept in mind when i made him other then a kind of roughneck brawler... sooo.. that could work if your intrested in him. I could try and be a static memeber of a team... thursday nights are normally pretty good for me...

    [/ QUOTE ]
    Well, if you can come up with a backstory as to why he has powers, I don't see an issue... and the name is oh so appropriate. Might want to shoot a PM to Mega for a final say-so though.

    Changing Origins

    Been there, done that.

    I rolled a Dominator as Natural... and basically had things in his bio end up making him sound Magic origin. I have now changed his costume and background more times than I can count... easily a dozen. He is now an alien... whose powers are mind based, and completely natural.

    I think he may stay this way for a while. But with me, one can never quite know for sure.

  16. Totally and completely: /signed!

    Though you may have better luck posting this in Jay's Costume Request thread.

    Sometimes I wish you could view missions in the AE like in arena matches. I would spend hours just watching stupid people and laughing.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I join low level AE farms just for the chuckle factor. Maybe I'm a tad twisted, but I love watching a bunch of below level 10 characters SK'd up to 46 trying to take down level 51 LTs. The best part is when they convince themselves that a tank and healer would make all the difference.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    The funniest part is when you walk onto the map and tell them what will happen. Then it does... then someone says we need a higher tank and a healer. At this point I laugh, and quit.

    It is funny when I get a tell asking why I quit. I guess some people like licking pavement at lvl 2 better than getting XP and a free travel power soon after.

    Its uncanny how you guys came up with the same thoughts as I was writing a new bio. This is what I have thus far:

    [ QUOTE ]
    Dr. Lliam Kents is a professor and scientist for the Climatology and Research Lab at Paragon University. While performing some experiments on a Shivan meteor fragment, mysterious microbes seeped through his protective gear.

    These nano microbes posses abilities to absorb pollutants and purify any gas they come into contact with. Once ingested, the nanomicrobes became a symbiote to Dr. Kents, augmenting his immune system allowing him to use the same purification abilities they possess. This relationship allows him to manipulate the contaminants in any air around him, converting any absorbed particles into the dark powers he uses. The purification process also has a side effect for enhanced regneration of cells when they are purged of any toxins.

    Upon learning of his changes, he decided to take up the mantle for the betterment of humanity. To protect his identity from anyone wishing to undermine his work, he uses the codename Smogshade.

    Only one problem... that doesn't sound like a mutant origin to me. More like science.

    I saw you kicking it on Triumph the other night under Atlas... Small world, isn't it? (At least I think it was you... oh, and noice costume!!)
  19. [ QUOTE ]
    Um, no.

    Because of the ET change, which made it hard to justify playing my EM/EA over my SS/EA.

    I just thought that death was ironic enough to post.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    I think its funny that one power will make people stop playing a set... and that, apparently, not being the best = teh suck.

    Wow. that is so incredibly simple, and yet it seems to work really well. Very well might be taken depending on the Server though.

    Hey guys,

    I was just looking for some answers. Why does my Fire/Fire tanker suck? He cant live in a mob of level 50's attacking him without using a couple inspirations and his main reason, farming demons, he also sucks at this. My END gets drains in a matter of seconds when im farming demons and i take so long to kill them. He takes about 1:20 to killa map of demons in PI on a 6 spawn. Could i please get some answers to this because this is my only level 50, I have invested over 140 hours into this toon and over 25 million influence and I hope that he can actually be good, because he sucks right now and i don't know why. Please, please, please

    This is my build I got feedback online that it would be awsome, but I am not seeing this. As you can see it is frakenslotted because i was poor at the time. but now i have around 100million influence and I am willing to spend it all to make him good.

    My suggestion? Re-evaluate your criteria for greatness.

    With Going Rogue, we will be able to change sides.

    With MA we can create custom critters with different power sets.

    PVP, the Arenas, Power Proliferation, all this, one would assume that there is a lot of datamining going on.

    Doesn't it seem that one peice of the natural evolution for CoX is the ability to respec to a different AT, or powerset within that AT?

    Personally, I think yes, only because I have had to re-roll my main several times the Devs create a new powerset that brings the original concept for my main closer to fruition

    Discuss!

    [/ QUOTE ]
    I don't see any logical progression between what has occurred and what you propose.

    I do not support this idea. Having alts is half the reason they make new powersets in the first place, IMO.

    I completely agree. He would have an argument if 8 out of 11 of the servers had this 'problem' but since that isn't reality he is just whining.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    Entitled snobbish whining at that.

    I can't believe he is seriously pushing the point that "with enough money you get whatever you want... and you get it NOW!" The fact that he is using capitalism to push that point is even more infuriating... primarily because it is exactly that issue that is wrong with capitalism today. Sheesh!
