You assume populations are 'spread thin' on those servers. For everyone who complains that a particular server is a ghost town and "you can't find teams", there's usually two people from that server to pipe up and say otherwise.

This. Intangibility is Phasing. Which means inherently, only affecting self and walk-though things with target boxes. Enemies can attack a phased critter, but it won't do anything.

Traditional self-phasing is: Intangible + Translucence VFX + Stealth

Phasing attacks are usually: Intangible + Immobile

Untouchable means that others can't affect you, but you can affect others. Sounds unfair, right? Right. That's why Untouchable is usually accompanied by a "Only Affect Self" tag to prevent such abuse. However, being Untouchable and able to attack others can happen such as with Rise of the Phoenix which has 15s of Untouchability (most of that is spent in animation).

Unlike being Intangible where you can be attacked, but it won't do any good, if something is flagged as Untouchable, attacks simply fail to go off.

A self-untouchable power is Hibernate which is accompanied by a "Only Affect Self" tag and immobilization. The short description says it's a 'Self-Hold', but it's not a hold at all.

Attacks which impose Untouchableness are usually accompanied by "Only Affect Self" and immobilization. Such is the case with the powers that have "Foe Capture (Special)" in their short description. 'Foe Capture' is not a status effect in and of itself, it's a particular suite of status affects.

BE BOLD.

Yes.

There are more Spanish-speaking people in the U.S. than in Spain.

Although, a great number of them are Spanish/English bilingual.

I'm already on a widescreen, and so, for me, 95% is plenty wide. Mostly so the forums are wider than the CP Bar at the very top.

And I already changed the default sticky icons, they're subtler (smaller and more match-y to the skin color) than yours, but certainly not as nice looking since they're gifs and not pngs.

What I'll do is include your options in my skins but comment them out so that a user can un-comment them to activate them and delete my alternatives if they wish.

And everyone should check out Diellan_'s new GreaseMonkey Script that does what I asked for above: It moves the Sticky Icon to in front of thread name and deletes the "SICKLY: " prefix. (typo intended). Here's that script.

Perfect!

I love you!

Look how pretty it looks!...

I'm using both your signature shift and Diellan's re-sizer for good effect!


While I'm here, any ideas on how to do what I'm looking for in this post?

Does the information here help?

No, you're not 'anchored' to the zone you're in. You're anchored to the level of your team leader or the level of the owner of the currently set mission.

The Midnight Club has a badge test to get in. RWZ has a level test to get in. We know the level test for Hazard Zones are going away, so, a level 1 can walk into RWZ.

The Midnight Club and Cimerora are not technically Hazard Zones. It would be hasty to assume any of the level restrictions on these zones is going away. We just don't know yet.

When the Mission Transporter was allowing level 1 toons to get into Cimerora (now, anyone under 35 is auto-TP'd out), they couldn't join the ITF becuase TFs have their own minimum level requirement. Nowhere in Posi's announcement was there any indication that that was going away. Assume that TFs will remain exactly the way they are except that SSKing will make everyone within one level of each other.



That will remain the same.



I'm pretty sure team-quitters are auto-booted from missions now.



The rules for IO Bonuses aren't changing. See here for those rules.



Nothing. They remain the same (presumably, barring an announcement otherwise), except that SSKing will bring everyone to within one level of each other.

This is important to remember since it's a theme of many questions: The removal of minimum level for many zones is not a removal of all minimum level requirements in the game.

You can still do most of that. The team SuperSidekicks to the level of the owner of the mission. If the owner of the mission has outleveled the mission, then everyone on the team has outleveled the mission.

There are only two 'anchors' for the SuperSK: The level of the team leader if no mission is set or the level of the owner of the mission when a mission it set.

So, if a level50 has the star, everyone will be SSK'd to 50 (i.e., 49 if they weren't already 50). If the leader chooses the mission of a level 10 member of the team, then they all exemp/sk to 10. When that happens, Posi didn't say, hopefully only when they enter the mission.

Also consider that if you want to knock out a mission quickly and easily, then set the difficulty slider on its lowest level. With SSKing, no one will ever be more than one level lower than the level of the mission. No more players at -3 or -5 leeching and not pulling their weight. And if you want a challenge, pump up the difficulty slider.

Also another concern is having a high level toon enter your mission to kill an EB you can't handle. That highbie will get exemlared to your level, but, if you've already spawned the map, then it should be easy for two people the right level to clear the map. Or, invite several lowbies to help. You can SK them all now!


No, it's not possible. I tried it. Can't be done. When the Mission Teleporter allowed lowbies into the RWZ, I specifically tried to get a lowbie that badge with that very trick. As I said, only the mission owner gets that badge. And you have to be 35+ to own that mission.

That's the way it is now on Live. If it's going to work any different than that, the Devs will have to purposely change it. Whether they will... I do not know.

This is a real boon for mothership raids in that it'll take only 10 level50s to SK up an extra 70 players regardless of their level.

OTOH, a level1 SK'd-up to level49 isn't going to do much v. the EBs.

OTOH, only level35+ can do Levantera's arc and get Vanguard Merits, so, it would be perfectly fine for any raid team leader to only accept level35+ players. (And without Vanguard Merits... no Vanguard unlockable weapons or costumes.)


Already covered. Shard... yes. Shard TFs... probably not. No Dev answer yet about minimum TF requirements, so, one should assume they'll stay.



Posi didn't say the minimum level for TFs were being done away with. So, you might have Imperious refusing to start a TF with someone thats 34 or under.



See above. A level 1 toon can walk into the RWZ. But Levantera's arc is for level35+ only. (I know that because the Mission Transporter originally allowed lowbies to bypass the door zone gate and you couldn't start her arc and she only gives the badge to the mission owner.)




I'd like official confirmation, too. But since it wasn't specifically mentioned, assume the minimum level requirements for TFs are still in place. (If they're not going to let level1s into the Hive for a Hami Raid, I doubt they'll let level1s access to the Statesman TF.)

Scooped!

Thanks Aggelakis! Hope you don't mind, but I lifted your code for my skins.

They not only fixed this, but they also fixed the reversed colors for the New Thread and New Reply buttons. My Zombie skins reversed them to make them look right. Then, with this fix, they were reversed on my skins. So, I took out the 'fix' on my skins and they appear correctly now on the Zombie Skins.

My skins are now updated (see link in first post) with both these changes.
