    Open your salvage window, and time how long it takes you usually to get to 750. Repeat this time every run. You won't always ticket cap, but it is a fair gauge at how long you must kill for.

    Good luck with a Spines brute
    Scrapper you mean.
    Should be fine with Spine Burst + Death Shroud.
  2. @Al Arrache:
    Your build is fine, but for the amount spent it could be better.
    Heat Exhaust needs more accuracy.
    Fire Ball needs endurance reduction.
    Your shields disappoint me in terms of buffing, possibly pull slots from the rez and buff those up.
    The hold is okay as it is, but I would personally drop it because a single Mag 2 hold isn't enough to hold bosses. You don't have any other holds, and again those extra slots could be used to boost your defenses.

    @PrincessMianda
    For Fire/Thermal I would say to go with Cardiac. Fire is fairly endurance heavy, and having more range in your powers is never that bad. The resistance gained is minimal for your shields. I would say go Spiritual for more recharge, but having done that I actually preferred cardiac.
    I went with Clarion for my destiny. I missed having good status protection, and even more range was a bonus.
    Damage Output is decent. After reducing your main targets defenses/resistances you can really start nailing him with heavy damage.

    A Fire/Thermal build that is somewhat cheaper, removing purples and assuming all LOTG 7.5s and Uniques are bought with merits, would be this one:
    Softcapped S/L
    Hasten is up when you need it (8 second downtime)
    Perma HeatExhaustion , 3 second downtime on MeltArmor

  3. Noticed it too.

    However, it does not affect Soldier of Arachnos creation. I can easily zoom when using those pre-set pieces.
  4. Yep - already sent my feedback to them.
  5. I just recently bought a HD6950
    I installed 11.7, and after 40 minutes of use the game freezed and I had to manually close it through Windows.
    Uninstalled+Drivesweeped - Tried 11.6, exact same issue was seen there. (Yes I know people complained 11.6 crashed, I wanted to see if the crash was similar - and it was)

    So, I tried 11.3 ... and there hasn't been a freeze-up since.
  6. I agree -
    AWESOME gift !
  7. 2x Dam/End
    2x Acc/Dam/End

    Get the three things this toggle needs, damage/accuracy/endurance reduction
  8. You will not be disappointed when you switch IOs from the SS/FA to the Claws/FA. If you enjoy playing the Claws/FA it will feel like a megaton of improvement.

    Zamuel!

    They left the snakes in only for badge reasons.

    Isn't Stheno an incarnate? :S
    I remember that there was a screenshot of a Sorceress on one of the CoH:Freedom pages. With the Sorceress there were snakes, so they are not completely vanished - they are just not in Mercy Island missions.
  10. They will be able to PvP. In SOs. Without incarnate powers.

    Heck, IOs are not a deciding factor. A well skilled SO blaster vs. an unskilled IO blaster... the SO blaster will win.
  11. People focus on the DPS comparisons because they figure you will be taking the Core Line powers, which well are designed to be focused on strength.

    I would say go with Phantasms, they look like Phantom Army. If you do pick the Radial Line they have Adrenaline Boost, which like Kosmos said - they can use twice per summoning period. Also - Phantasms fly. They are fairly useful on Keyes trial when you are jumping between reactors because they can just fly and keep up with you.. Plus they deal more DPS than the other two lore choices you offered, but you don't care for that :-p
  12. Too bad it can't just look like this
    T1 = Combat Jumping/Jump Kick/Super Jump
    T2 = Acrobatics/ShieldCharge-Clone

    vs

    T1= CombatJumping/JumpKick/SuperJump
    T3 = Acrobatics/ShieldCharge-Clone
    which appears to come in i21

    (This is going actual tiers, not the order the powers appear in. Tier One powers will be CJ/JK/SJ, there will be no tier twos, and tier three will be what needs pre-reqs.)

    Oh well, was looking forward to skipping Boxing/Kick on toons and freeing up that power for another travel power, or utility. On the plus side - less respecing.
  13. I like this artwork since it has Manticore in it. Archery ftw (Best sport ever.)

    I say Citadel.
    He will be replaced with Citadel MKIII.
    Bastion > Citadel > [Insert synonym to Citadel/Bastion]

    Then Citadel MKIII can be the Citadel TF commander.
    :3

    Apparently CoT are getting a face lift as well.
    Do not like. I like Legacy Circle of Thorns MUCH better. What happened to all their wizard robes? WTF is with this tights )=
    ***
    Great compilation!
  15. I thought we had to call on help from Team Hospital? Swore we grabbed 2 extra people before calling the remaining 4 in.

    Oh well - Team Damage needs a "healer" then. (Corruptor healzor for moar damage!)
  16. This strategy almost worked when we attempted it last night, I would be willing for another go at it. Just need to make sure Team Damage has enough damage.
  17. It was a lot of fun!
    Thanks for putting this together Hemm!

    New Judgements?

    [Prototype] is pretty cool, and all those tentacle-style attacks would be awesomeness from the Infected creatures. Heck, I'd be happy if we'd get Elizabeth's children as a new MM pet :-P
  19. Fire is THE primary to go for with corruptors if you are worried about dealing the most damage.

    If you want ice, go ice. But, you can always color fire to be blueish-white ;-)
  20. I really like these.
    I don't have any to share.. I just use the GR one.
    Nice work Ominous!
  21. 'Phants : New Tactic.
    We will get a Grav to snare someone into a pool then everybody get on him and self-destruct. LoL
  22. PR program hurts my brain. I know it shouldn';t matter since I am VIP, but I better not lose access to MA - there are some pretty talented writers out there. Some arcs are better for leveling 1 - 20 than the ones that you are supposed to do >.> (No, I mean actual arcs.) Hopefully revampled Atlas/Mercy will fix this for the 3 characters I will have to roll..

    My brother, who I am trying to get to play CoH, is like "WTF, those are NOT super powers - but is the beam bun single handed?". He really isn't impressed by Street Justice's information and I am not either.
  23. gWraith, I experience the same things.
    I prefer to run at "Performance" settings and do not obtain designs.
    By turning up the graphics, I do get designs/backgrounds.

    I believe it is something to do with the reflections, as when I turn up the graphics the only thing I gain is slightly more graphic detail and some reflections (metal looks shiny, etc.)
    Like Chad said - it is probably a bug (that needs to be fixed.)

    No hard feelings, but at this point I'd kick you just to take a screenshot of me kicking you for dancing in a cut-scene lol.

    (Edit: I actually LOL'd while re-reading my post. You're right! I AM hilarious!)
    :-P
    "Actually, yes, you'd get kicked even if you made the mission more likely to fail (but it didn't)." This states otherwise..

    As long as you state that you will kick it is fine. I am mainly talking about people who don't warn before they kick, much like those who kick people before TFs end. That is just the leader being a jerk.
  25. Also that one piece of art with the broken bow..

    WHO WILL DIE?

    Zomg where will Manticore go without his pretty bow?
