I wasn't aware that my Rad/Dark Defender was even in combat.

Yes, you too can miss The Broad Side of a Barn. (on Guardian)

Of course, I did design him to be hard to hit.

Unfortunately, he's not all that high a level at the moment. Been distracted by my multitude of other alts.

A forum mod got hit with a Confuse power and GG was the closest "Enemy" when they cued up the Ban Stick attack.

...

Honest!

...

I swear, that's what happened!

Obviously, you don't really understand the concept of an Offender. Offenders use all of their abilities to aid their team, not just their primaries. My Emp/Elec Defender does just that. You know why? Because every little bit of Endurance and health that I can drain off of the bad guy helps the team. Not just my 2 heals, Fort, CM, RecA, RegA, and AB. Or the occasional Rez when RegA wears off at an inconvenient time.

If you were to tell me to stop blasting away, just so I could heal you more. I'd do one of two things. Quit the team (which would be the polite thing to do) or I would just not buff you.




That makes me very happy that I won't be teaming with you. Because I'd be bruising your delicate ego with my Controller that can tank better than many Tanks that he's teamed with.



I love KB. Even on my Melee characters. However, I know how to use KB. I have found that those who whine and complain the most about KB never learned to use it properly.

In other words, Lrn2Play!



No, he had it right. You want Defenders to have you on Follow with their buffs on auto because you haven't actually learned to play with others yet.



About the only thing I would kick someone for is them being a jerkwad who thinks they know the "only" way to play the game. And yes, I have kicked people from my team before.

But, your avatar-picture-thingy is appropriate as a response to Carnifax's comment (which was, "Damn. Beaten. You win this round SinisterDirge but the battle isn't over!")

According to the CoH comic, Ressurection can, indeed, raise someone from being not just mostly dead, but go-through-his-pockets-and-look-for-change-dead. Statesman is (ahem) living (yes, that was bad ) proof of that.

Do you honestly think I'm going to say that I like LISAR beter than The Ocho, when The Ocho is standing behind me with a large Ban stick? Do you think I'm that crazy?

Of course, I like her more than The Ocho. I'm her Number 1.5 fan.
I think I'm The Ocho's second or fifth fan.
No offense The Ocho. She IS cuter than you are.

Um...

I think I'm going to hide over there under that table.

*hides under the sofa*

That's ok, LISAR. I like you better than I like him.

My Warshade uses Ninja Run when entering a battle. It allows him to drop (quite literally) in on a group that he's just hit with a Knockback power (now turned knockdown thanks to being above them). However, I usually turn it off right after that. But, there are times when I like the flippy jump animation during a fight...or the fight is over about the time he lands.

Yes!

or

Where ARE they going to find rubber pants their size?

Those are my first thoughts.

My first thought was to avoid all the freaking traffic on my way to and from work.

My second thought was Jumper. It was a good movie. Although, I didn't agree with the theft part.

The problems arise, many times, around the definition of "pulling ones own weight".

I have an Illusion/Force Field Controller whom I usually solo with. So, the only powers from the secondary that I use on a regular basis are Dispersion Bubble and Force Bolt. He solo's 3 +3 bosses just fine. And he's not even optimally built.

When I team using him, I tend to forget about the personal bubbles most of the time. Yet, the team hardly notices. Probably because Chaos, Mayhem, and Pandemonium are running around taking a lot of the aggro from the other squishies. Yes, I named the Phantom Army.

Would I be kicked from some of the previous posters' teams because I wasn't using my bubbles on them? Most likely, I would. Their loss, I say.

But, I don't find Fly tedious.

I think everyone can pretty much agree on that point.

Welcome Starfighter! You have been recruited by the Star League to defend the Frontier (and your mobile caves that never went anyplace) against Xur and the Ko-Dan Armada(with a gun-ho iguana that tells you to relax)!

Awesome movie.

My Dark/Dark Defender wasn't even allowed on a team because he wasn't a "healer". Despite having the best Rez in the entire game.

Thank you for that 5 minute giggle session. Literally brought tears to my eyes. I"ll probably be cracking up for no apparent reason for the rest of the day and getting a lot of funny looks, but I think its worth it.

Of course, the 6 weeks of 60 hours weeks at work might have something to do with the low laughter threshold I have.

If he pulled off your hand, then you couldn't really give it to him, could you?

Ecsuse me, but doesn't Defense subtract from Accuracy and not To hit? (and your base chance of hitting is To Hit not Accuracy, if I'm not mistaken) So, 25% defense would yield a 95% chance of hitting ( (180%-25%)*(75) ).

Now, if you ran up against something that debuffed your To-Hit smething fierce and dropped your To-Hit (base chance of hitting) to 5%, then that 180% wouldn't do much. You'd have a measly 9% of hitting.

Of course, I'm not the math wizardess that Arcanaville is, nor have I spent all that much time investigating the whole Chance of hitting formula. But, I do believe that I recalled Defense subtracting from Accuracy and not the base to-hit.

I could be wrong however.

In any case, carry on.

I Beta tested a game called Cosmic Rift several years ago. I actually did better with a ship I called P-shooter Power than I did with the "Heavy" hitters. That game is all about PvP. There are instances were faster light attacks will beat out a Heavy Hitter more often.

Also, you might not be taking into account that Claws is also relatively light on Endurance usage. Of course, if you feel that you must have Stamina as soon as possible, you might have missed the lower Endurance usage. It happens.

I recall reading somewhere here on the forums about the Devs writing detours around old coded parts in order to give us some of the features that were previously considered "impossible".

So, in effect, I would agree. The current engine would be CoH2 CoH1.5 at the very least.
