Thanks for the MA and SS vids. But I fail to see what is so exhausting about sitting there talking to people.

You've obviously never been to / worked at a convention booth.

Imagine a mile-long hike, through a swamp. A noisy, hot, smelly swamp.

That's one-way through the con building. Now, imagine that around 50 thousand people are also trying to go through that same smelly loud swamp. To get to YOU. To ask you questions. You have to stand there, make sure your booth isn't falling apart, making sure that no one's stealing your equipment, creating nasty words on your screens, badmouthing your product, trying to get company secrets, asking valid questions that require 20+ minutes to answer...

If you have ever worked retail or food during a huge lunch rush? Multiply that by about 60x and you have a brief glimpse of the convention.

Oh yes: they're not sitting. There are a total of 2 chairs at that booth and one of them was Nakayama's. they did have a little back room but "little" being the key word there. They stand 10 hours a day doing this.

Try it some day. Guaranteed that if you spend most of your time behind a computer desk typing? You're not gonna want to stand more than an hour before you get a huge back and foot ache.

So, instead of sending the Devs a gift basket, we should be sending them cushioned stools. Got it.

The Devs hate sleekness.

Please post the results of HijackThis - it will show us what's running on your computer concurrently with CoH. Click on "Do a system Scan and save a logfile." It will automatically open up Notepad and put the info there. Make sure Wordwrap is off in Notepad (Format > Wordwrap unchecked) before you cut and paste here.

NOTE: If you suspect you have a virus on your computer, then when you install HijackThis do not install it in a directory called 'HijackThis' -- modern viruses look for that and disable anything in that directory. Rename it. Also, when it starts up, do *not* run a report. Back out of the program and rename the HijackThis.exe file to something else (I renamed mine to Love.exe ) -- again, to fool the modern viruses that would stop it from running.

The forced choice of your first level secondary is a constant bane in this game. Talk to Stormies about Gale.

[/ QUOTE ]

Well, it's either Gale, or O2 boost.

And notice, every power you are forced to take can be used solo...


[/ QUOTE ]

When Storm is a Secondary, as it is for Controllers, you must take Gale.

And, I'd rather be given the choice of taking a soloing or teaming power, especially since I would be able to respec out of the weak solo power later on. Storm Controllers can never respec out of Gale, which is way too often an anti-team power.

So, that's Mod08, Bill Horatio Harlick, Vince The Dark Watcher D'Amelio, Matt Positron Miller, Brian General Manager Clayton, Joe Hero1 Morrissey, Ross Marketing Borden, Unknown Woman, David Nakayama.

Who is that Unknown Woman... Mynx?


And congratulations to the guy who teabagged Positron!

It's still on the Official Known Issues list.

I just saw what I thought was at first glance thigh-high folded boots, but it was the witch's skirt which has a panel along the hem which gave the appearance of folds at the top of thigh-highs.

What, you didn't memorize all your codes?

This isn't the new boards yet!

MM Zombies have pure Toxic attacks.

Well, there's no Toxic *Defense*, so, foes have to rely on positional defense alone v. Toxic attacks. Theoretically, you should be hitting more often with Toxic which may compensate for it being more heavily Resisted.

What day?

[/ QUOTE ]

No man knoweth the day, nor the hour when the forumpocalypse wilt happen. One farmer will be left with Battle Maiden, the other taken. There will be rumors of PvP and rumors of nerfs: these are but the beginning of sorrows. The color of dark melee will turn to blood and the end draweth nigh. Yea, the mighty regen will tremble in fear as the 4 dead horses of the forumpocalypse are released to reap the harvest of threads.

Behold I saw the first horseman. He was yellow and black, known as Regen. As he turned to the players and told of epic years past, there was wailing and gnashing of teeth.

I looked upon the second horsemen, clothed in red and blue. The mighty fell before the wrath of GDN, unable to stand against the withering nerf.

As I looked up again I saw the third horseman, ED. He was clothed in one aspect and the terrible beauty wrought great destruction upon the land.

I again looked up and saw the fourth horseman. Completely formless, yet with many forms, terror pierced my sinews. His name AE, and the threads of wrath were released upon the forum. Yea, such is the wrath that is AE.

All these must come to pass and then the end will come. There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

For those who've put up their own list of what Dark Support, Assault, and Control should look like, may I remind you that that's not proliferation. You're asking for new powers with new animations and effects.

[/ QUOTE ]
That is why my Blaster Dark Manipulation set is perfect for I16 . It doesn't contain anything that would conflict with or combine too strongly with the eventual Dark Blast set and all the powers already exist in game with animations that work fine (perhaps Gravimetric Snare should have a slight color change for the base version, but with customization hitting anyway...

1) Gravimetric Snare (it needs a name change)
2) Shadow Punch
3) Smite
4) Soul Drain
5) Dark Consumption
6) Shadow Maul
7) Midnight Grasp
8) Cloak of Darkness
9) Fearsome Stare

[/ QUOTE ]

That's a good selection. It's pretty close to mine, I think.

Now, can you proliferate a Dark Assault and Dark Control Set?

BTW, I went through all the other Dark/Neg Energy powers I could find in the game (in addition to the other Dark Sets) as possible proliferaton candidates and came up with:

Chill of the Night Neg DoT, -Acc
Dark Imps Black Swan's Imps
Summon Rotting Husk
Mask of Vitiation -Def, -Reg, -Speed
Dark Extraction Summon Essence
Shadow Cloak +Perception, +Def, +Stealth +Res(Immob)
Black Dwarf Mire ToHit, +Dam / Neg Dam, -Recharge -Speed
Black Dwarf Drain Heal / Neg Dam, -Recharge Speed
Dark Nova Detonation Neg Dam Sphere, 50% KB, -Recharge -Speed
Shadow Blast Neg Dam, -Recharge -Speed
Gravimetric Snare S/L Dam, Immob, -Recharge, -Speed
Phase Shift (MM Ghost) Phase, +Regen
Necroplasmic Grasp Neg DoT, Hold
Spectral Servant Malaise's Dark Phastasm
Spectral Army Malaise's Dark Phastasm Army
Soul Extraction Ghost

The work that needs to be done on the new boards is expected to take approximately 72 hours.


[/ QUOTE ]

72 Hours without Message Boards? Oh God NO!!! What else is there to do on the internet? Maybe I can get an offline webcrawler and archive the boards so I can keep on posting.

[/ QUOTE ]

If it is 72 hours and not just 2 hours, use that time to browse the Wiki, teach yourself Wiki code, and update and create new Wiki pages. They even have their own forums as does the Titan network.

Ah Archie McPhee. Do you ever become less brilliant?

[/ QUOTE ]

Nunzilla says, no.

You *must* have a nice formal outfit for when you do guard duty at the RWZ Rikti peace conference. If you don't, you're an uncouth hooligan (and villains, that's a *bad* thing).

Mairzy Dotes.

Since there is no such thing as Toxic Defense, then any Toxic attack would be Defended against solely by positional defense.

Zombie Vomit is AoE Defense only.

If it does get past AoE defense, then Toxic Reistance, if any, would kick in to mitigate the damage.

When you report a post to a moderator, you will be able to add a comment to let the moderator know what the problem is. No more need to send an extra PM or announce the problem in the thread and report yourself so that the mod will see what the problem is. Also, it allows multiple reporting of threads/posts so that when a mod gets into work in the morning, they'll head directly to the disastrous thread that got 403 reports first rather than slog through the 20 other reported threads with only one or two reports.

Besides better pruning, they can also.... MERGE threads. That's right, when we start getting 20 threads about when I16 is being released, they can all be merged into one giant SOON thread. People who think their post deserves special attention by being the first in a brand new thread so they get more attention will be forcibly put to the back of the line where they belong, the cutters!
