White Hot Flash

After reading through this thread, I've come to the conclusion that many of you need to figure out what "Teaser" means.


Srsly. Your blood pressure will thank you later.

I've been asking around in-game, but no one seems to know for sure, so I'll ask here:

I'm wondering if there's a way to see the last 5 transactions of an item that isn't currently for sale. For example: I have a lvl 42 Thunderstrike recipe. I go to look it up in the crafted enhancements section, but that particular level isn't listed. It might have one at 40, and then the next one is 45. Is there a way to see the last 5 of the lvl 42 (so I know what to sell it for) without just throwing it on there and making a guess? I'd hate to lowball it and get way less than I could, or put it too high and waste the listing fee.

I don't generally mess with the search settings on the interface, so it's looking for anything lvl 1-53, both for sale and buying. Normally, if there's a recipe or enhancement that's only one level higher or lower than what I'm wanting to list, I can make an educated guess, but some of the stuff is either scarce at mid levels, or gets sold as soon as it's listed.

I know I've seen listings on the market where there's bids but none for sale, but I'm not sure how or when it shows those and when it doesn't.

Anything you guys can tell me would be great. Thanks.

Champion isn't one of the top two in population, but we've had at least as many come to our server as transfer off of it, if not more. It's not all doom and gloom. Not everyone wants to play on Freedom or Virtue, or they'd have been there already.


Global SGs sounds good in theory, but in practice sounds more like a headache. What if you have two characters with the same name from different servers that want to be in the base at the same time? Now you get into server merger problem territory. No one wants to have <name>Freedom. Plus, if you were allowed to share bins cross server, or simply pass things from a character on one server to one from another, the markets would get wrecked (IE, they wouldn't get much use).

I'd rather they make the start up costs for building a workable base lower, or give us a way to copy/paste the design of a base like we can now with costumes, which would lessen the impact of switching servers. Prestige is just a number. It doesn't mean your group is great because you're on a list, it just means you've played the game in SG mode more. The people in your group are what makes it great (or not great).

"End Game Content" to me would be things that can't (not shouldn't...big difference) be done with anything less than a 50. You can already do everything this game has to offer without getting to the end cap. Just adding another high level TF, or some kind of high end raid won't be enough. This content should be the answer to the question "So I got my character to 50...now what?" Up until now, the answer was "Run the same content you just did to get this far" or "Go use flashback to run all the arcs you skipped on the way up to 50," or "Go roll a new character and start over." These answers may be fine for those who haven't played long, or might only have one or two 50's, but it's time to have some stuff for the level capped characters to do that's just for them. Constantly creating new characters is one way to keep customers paying, but it doesn't have to be the only way, and at this point in CoH's lifespan, it shouldn't be the only way anymore. There's a large stable of 50's in this game collecting dust. It's time we gave them more love.

I look forward to seeing what Positron and his minions are up to.

Or, even easier than anything else said so far: Avoid Atlas Park. That's really the main place for the blind invites like that, so why subject yourself to it when you can go to Galaxy from the start? There's no reason to hang out there just to hang out when you can go to other places.

Did they do their weekly maintenance this morning?

Happy Birthday, Dinah Might

Good job, Witty. Now, back to the hold with you! That rum doesn't bottle itself.

Mine got fixed a day or two after I sent in a ticket to support.

Trial time counts as well, since all you're doing is switching its status to full, not creating a new account. I started my trial Christmas Day, and that's generally when I get my year anniversary badges, though this last one was one I had to petition for.

I saw another person in the forums (don't remember who) that figured out it was cheaper for them to get a second account rather than buy more slots.* Is that not an option?


* This wouldn't make sense if you just wanted all the slots for Champion only. I think the person wanted slots on more than one server.

While advocating more power-specific IO sets, we should also be asking for some of the redundant sets to be removed. There's too many useless sets floating out there, clogging the drop pools and personal inventories.

Do we need all those snipe sets? All those pet damage sets? All those confuse or sleeps? Is there a way to make a more generic group that enhances multiple buff/debuff aspects, like Blessing of the Zephyr does for travel powers?

Implementing a revamp would be hard, but that doesn't mean it's not necessary. What do you guys think?

He got on the game for a couple of minutes last night to say thanks, and then left again. Not sure about today, but he'd better be staying off the computer.

Others have shot down the rest of your argument, Rial, so I'll just focus on this one part:

Heh. Might as well have read : I saw what you did there. Visit this link or else!

Happy Birthday, Angie
