    This needs addressed. As a TF the contact doesn't get added to our contacts list, but perhaps a GMOTD message for the 1st couple of days after each of these launch?
  2. Brass Betty is freshly SO'd and ready to go! Level 22 SR/Dark

    Halloween?

    It will be a trial of some sort, and a haunted mansion is the plan based on the screenshots we've seen previously.
  4. However, as they said during the UStream: The bonus reward is for doing ANY of the SSA's that week. Once all 7 are out for the current story you only get the weekly reward once. Not once per mini-arc.

    Never left, just filled up Virtue and a good chunk of Infinity

    Shoulders, weapons, wings, backpacks. Not just at the default pose but think of running, jumping, attacking, etc.

    Or am I totally misremembering St0ney having anything to do with it. Coulda sworn I saw him credited sometime ago.
    Nope, St0ney was/is involved. Diellan just* handles the coding now afaik.

    *Pft, yeah... "just".
  9. Since my old alt from back when these started had since been deleted I rerolled her (Brass Betty) last night as an SR/Dark tank. Hoping to be at least 20 by the 7th.
  10. I just finished the First Ward arcs on my pure Praetorian toon. Daaaaang that's some good writing (even the Ghostbusters bits) and the art is awesome. Kudos to all involved.
  11. The day I decide to work from home? *shrug* Cool Do what needs done.

    It's like your parents paying for your account. YMMV.

Absolutely not! What it does do is save you from, I estimate, about 65% of the mezzes you'd ordinarily be smacked with and a lot of attacks besides. The other advantage is that ranged damage sets pretty much suck apart from thunderstrike, so blasters have an uncommonly easy avenue to shoring up their numbers.

    To put it another way, if you're looking for reliable status immunity, it's clarion or a different AT. However, solo blasting can be enjoyable and "safe" if you're willing to hedge your bets and take a few risks. After all, why else would you even roll a blaster?
    That's the only real goal I set on any of my blasters if I decide to set them out. Softcap to all positions or types isn't attainable (for me anyway), but ranged is at least possible on all sets.
  14. Who's name is on the account. They get everything and can do what they want including gut toons and sell the enhancements. *shrug* Get a CoX pre-nup

    That kind of defeats the purpose of the Paragon Store!

    I hope this gets fixed soon!

    The store is new tech. What you've bought previously was never recorded in that tech. They need to find some way to have two disparate systems talk to each other nicely. It's not easy.

    EDIT: Since I already know what I have I don't rebuy
  17. Beam Rifle set
    Barbarian costume pack
    Back to School Backpack
    One enhancement tray increase

  20. Guess I can play some Dragon Age 2 Legacy instead
  21. Really? Double XP is a standard offering from Paragon Studios. The last one was January 27th and the one before that was ... wait for it ... It's WAY off from this current one ... August 2nd 2010.

    It's always this time of year. I've missed them in the past. *shrug* Oh noes. *fake scaredy jazzhands* Meh. There'll be another around the end of ... January 2012. Book off the middle of January through the middle of February now to make sure.
  22. Well Manti is something like 5'-0" He's all hidden by States' divine ego.
  23. Hrm. I'll probably dust off my toons and level a bit for a few days.
  24. I see about a net 0% speed change except when applying after a patch. Then it has thus far, in the last few months, been a vast improvement.
