I watch 6-7 episodes of Casshem Sins on Netflix. I really wanted to like it. Everything about it interested me, story, themes, art style. Somehow execution and how the story was told just killed it for me.
-
I know someone is going to say it, so might as well. My energy blaster has never had anyone say anything about KB and he's existed since before the proc came to be.
OTOH: I lead my own PuGs, so they kinda have to behave. -
Quote:I got a couple of globals in place for Champion. But there's a difference between putting a team together in 5 minutes and 10. Which isn't really too horrible, just depends on how much work I feel like putting into is.Originally Posted by Amygdala
LFG is a good place to start. I'd also check out Champion global channels. A list can be found here.
Also, late late night Red teams are a PITA everywhere. -
Quote:Champion is my server #3. PuGs there always run smoother and more entertaining than those in Virtue and Freedom. Tricky part is putting the PuGs together.Originally Posted by PunkRolex
My theory is that higher population servers have more new and/or marginal players. I definitely have better PuG experiences on Triumph or Liberty than Freedom or Virtue.
Haven't played for a while, so maybe things have been made easier with the lfg channel. -
Quote:I really want my damage auras to be spinning swords. I would reroll all my swords/X into whichever armor let me do that.Originally Posted by _Pine_
Its kinda like wishing Electric Armor looked more like swords >.> or Fire....

Quote:Not sure what the dev's stance will be on this. A while ago Bonfire was made to Knockback outside purple patch rules because people were using it against purples where it became Knockdown.Originally Posted by Tater Todd
Ah so the KD proc would work in Bonfire! SWEET!
So I wouldn't be surprised devs made specific exceptions down the road.
Then again, that was with a different set of devs. -
Quote:Haven't checked in a while, but has bipedal walk been sorted out? Last I heard that was also very tricky to do.Originally Posted by Dark One
We aren't going to get a decent vehicle until we can finally come up with an energy source better than an IC engine. There's simply too much weight and fuel requirements to make something better than a glorified pack mule.

Build a Rad/Fire currently 25 I'm enjoying. I'm probably strange in that I like Blazing Aura on him. Except for the detoggling. If that gets changed, yay!

One person's fun is another's:

Gross over-generalization of what I'm seeing, but still:
Before insta-Snipe:
Build Up and Aim are awesome and we must build for recharge so we can use them again and again. Moar Damage!!
After insta-Snipe:
So much work. Can we get some easier way to insta snipe? Because clicking Build Up and Aim is such a burden and I hate doing it. -
Quote:We also get an orange ring around the snipes if it can be instant. So we can keep an eye open for that.Originally Posted by Shining_Path
Ah. Now it makes sense. Thanks. That takes it from a -40 DPS to +40, if your existing characters happen to have Devices to sustain the +22% ToHit, or you have enough team mates around with Tactics running. Otherwise, it'll cost 1.17 seconds to activate Aim or BU every time. I think it will be very awkward/annoying, however, if you're firing at a good clip, and suddenly your team mate wanders out of range, and your snipe starts doing interrupts again.

Quote:Just in case. Based on your reg date, I assume you're already up till tear 9, right? Iirc you need to be all the way up there to pick Mech Armor.Originally Posted by iPirate
Can't seem to find these answers so I'll ask her...
as a Freemium player...
if I buy a game time card what will that give me? VIP for that period of time?
If I go VIP and claim mech armor do I get to keep the armor if i go Freemium or does it go away?
And lastly, I know Freemiums can't get incarnate stuff but can we just be on the team for a trial?
Also, there are three mech armor sets, check which one you want carefully if you only have one token to spend. -
I know I'm looking at a gift unicorn in the mouth and asking "do the teeth come in gold?" but how would it help/hinder if most blasts also buffed to-hit but 4% or so for a few seconds?
This way AwesomeSnipe would also work as Street Justice's Combo system. This would alleviate the complaints of those that say that some sets are at a disadvantage when it comes to snipping. -
Quote:Aye. This sounds like better news for my defenders than blasters.Originally Posted by Aett_Thorn
The Snipe and ST-blast range standardization is good for Blasters, but I still wonder if it'll work out better for other ATs. I just wonder if this will give Blasters the boost they need to separate them from other ATs, or if is merely a rising tide, lifting all boats.

Quote:Yea. I was being conservative with my slotting and went with 50ish% to-hit slotted. I rarely bother about 4-5% in enhancements and like to look at stuff w/o IOs (even though I IO everything I have). 55% is 21.5%, so a tick closer.Originally Posted by Arcanaville
TD + Kismet = perma awesome snipe.
Also, four even SOs in TD get you to 22.1%, also perma awesome snipe.
The number was actually chosen so targeting drone could get there without too much trouble, but most other blasters would have the effect non-perma with cycling BU and Aim, so that TD, and devices in general, got a boost relative to everyone else. -
22% to hit. Something tells me that number was chosen out of pure evil.
Targeting Drone is what? 13.875, enhanceable till 20.8%. So close. . . -
Went in there to see if 'El Chapulín Colorado' was there. It is, so I'm ok with it.
-
So... How much would it break the game to increase Blaster's melee and damage modifiers by 50-100% without changing anything else?
-
Build Up and/or Aim: You charge yourself with energy and get half your HP worth of HP in the form of "Absorb" mechanic for 30 seconds or till you lose it. [On top of the +to hit / +dam it already gives.]

My main change has been leading more teams this year.
Got bored of blueside and decided to play red, but you have to be proactive to get teams there, so I did.
Another change has been avoiding content. As much as I like the Wards, not playing them outside of soloing them for story. The whole "every team member has to have access to the content to do the mission" killed the zones for me. I'm not going to recruit based on whether you are VIP or not. -
Void is my "go-to" power when it comes to natural themed characters and I use it as a burst of power / fear / shock-and-awe / ki-explosion / etc.
I think the closest one I have to your concept is a noble Inv/Mace who is a knight from a gone era. Tough to kill, but entirely reliant on his mace for damage. I use Void in a "you shall not pass! / this ends now!" kind of way and spin in a "their fate passed beyond their eyes and foes just knew better than to fight and decided the best option was to just fall down." -
I'll just wait till some amateur movie enthusiasts do a youtube series about the book with their own equipment.

A long time ago I used to make simple programs in C++ with some Direct X classes and examples I found here and there. Nothing fancy, I made a fighting smashing game, a simple snake game, and a Jeopardy wannabe that I used for teaching purposes.
I have since lost all those files and am wondering if anyone knows of good programs available for designing simple apps/programs. Ideally be able to un on both Win and Macs. If they work on browsers that'd be fine. It's mostly for fun, nothing fancy.
I'm guessing Java and Flash would be good starting points, but iirc flash costs money, and no idea where to start my education in Java.
I learn stuff fast and decent at math, it's finding good resources where I have problems.
Any ideas? -
Taken the inspiration from here, let us make a draft for the Lantern Corps.
Rules:- Need 8 volunteers, first 8 people to show up are in.
- Once all 8 people are in, I will randomly choose an order of people, each person will give one candidate for each color: Red, Orange, Yellow, Blue, Indigo, Violet, Black, and White. Ideally with a wiki link and/or a justification.
- If one person suggest a character for a ring, but someone else had already used that character, the person who was late must edit. If you think character X would be an awesome green lantern but someone already submitted him for the blue corps, you are out of luck.
- No comic book characters from any company. TV, real life, movies, books, video games, etc, are fine.
- Once every spot it filled it will be a good old elimination round. Voting will take place for 24 hours. The voting must be done assuming the voter is a power ring and had to pick one of those two.
This will be a massive 64 character draft. Still thinking how to sort this part out.
I'll update post as I polish the instructions.
