Woo! never done anything like that before, but its was probably a long time comming. Now my plant/storm/stone controller has been built for a while now, but with the incarnate slot, I was able to tweak my build slightly. The higher level Musculature gave enough of an endurance buff to Stamina that I was able to start putting a little more recharge into the build.
My teammate in this accomplishment? The wifey! yep, a Husband/Wife duo on the ITF. She also used a plant controller. After seeing how mine handled she made one as well and in the end went Plant/Rad/Fire (even for me, fire was hard not to take... fireballllll *drool*)
A few lucky purple drops and some taskforces for her incarnate slot would complete the duo.

We can both stack Carrion Creepers and Spirit Tree. She is 3 seconds off perma AM! I can stack Tornado, Lightning Storm and freezing rain. All this added up to mob carnage.
Indeed, throughout the task force, Romulus' minions looked a little something like this...



and this...



Now Romulus sat still for most of the fight, but by the time he had just 1 nictus buddy left, he decided his tactic wasn't working, a touch too late mind you



And of course, the quintessential taskforce pic!



Now I know we could run that quicker, there were a few things we weren't sure about. We tried to do a few silly things with the nictus around Rommy which wasted some time, in the end, we just ran in, tanked him took him down. Did the whole task force without any temp powers or Pets (shiva's / heavies) though I came prepared with them.

Had a couple of people cheering us on, thankyou Justice! and all in all, a fun time

Yeah im not sure what criteria they use but i've been able to buy multiple items across 2 accounts using the same card (got a prepaid debit card as a gift, wifey and I went CoH crazy ) within minutes of each other

Thanks to me lovely incarnate slot, i have a 1000+hp heal up every 11 seconds, will this negate needing to build for +def?

I haven't slotted any purples yet so im hoping to have even more +rech

I am waiting if there is room

I dont think I can really add to any of the feedback here that hasn't been said already.

Is what on test at the moment all there is?

If you want to make a cat, wolf or a cow, you're covered. There isn't really any generic pieces people can mix and match, one of the beauties of the CoH character creator! It makes it feel restrictive.

Textures are great, love the animal fur instead of monsterous. Just for kicks I made a male lion and actually used the old monsterous feet, they suited his bulky frame better than the new cat feet. Made a female cheetah out of all the new stuff. Looks great with the new textures.

Though since I dont have a lot of animal characters, (actually, 2 i think, outside of my Combat Kangaroo SG ) the pack doesn't interest me enough to purchase.

The wifey however, has found dozens of things to make or redo, so by proxy, i'll probably end up with it as well .

As far as a suggestion for a generic piece, perhaps the feline face, the old one, but with a bit longer mouth/muzzle, would help to make a lot of creatures not associated with the 3

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOO

seriously! Thankyou thankyou thankyou

My controllers pet, Flytrap got the level shift, as did the Carrion Creeper Vines, Now I wonder about the pseudo pets you get, like lightning storm and the like

Woo got me [Musculature Total Radial Revamp] and the lvl bump on me Plant/storm/stone controller. RAWR!

Woo STF forming up now

the character im currently running has the uncommon slotted 3 pieces of Incarnate Salvage and 60 shards.

nope on that LG. thinking Khan next

ran the itf on justice, not it. running a quickly LGTF right now

Oh I agree, the games a hog, but I dont believe its because of OpenGL

I'm not sure which one is the real winner here. I have a shield/elec/mu tanker that took ball lightning just for a thematic AoE , but I still have more fun on my fire/fire/fire.

I guess I could up the ante and suggest that Blazing Aura and Burn would be less resisted than the smashing? damage of shield charge

not too familiar with AE, but took my fire/fire into that one map where you get ambushed. omg perma burn. mind, with hasten up, my fire/fire is at 170% rech with the spiritual tacked on.

Its also the character my wife stole while I was at work to level a few of her lowbies

at least the tier 1 and tier 2's wont do much for defense or resistance, because as a tanker, you've probably already maxed them out with regular slotting. However i'd love to see the higher tier alpha slots, with 2/3rd of the enhancement ignoring ED. should make for some intersting building. Come on Mids!! I wanna check it out!

I guarrentee your system could max out CoH Pre-Ultra mode. Post Ultra mode, if you have a system that can run the added goodies without impacting your performance, then WOO turn it up.

Yes CoH seems very heavy on system resources and im still not sure where it comes from.

However don't blame Open Gl. If anything OpenGL is more efficent (or at least it used to be) than DirectX. I quite like the openGL standard and find it interesting that the mobile market is picking it up. Perhaps that comes down to efficency again, perhaps you have more info on that Je Saist.

Still my modest system runs CoH in ultra mode with all the goodies turned on but only water and shadows completely maxxed out. It looks great and honestly, mid battle, I wouldn't notice the difference between Occlusion Strength Medium and Occlusion Strength Strong with Color Bleeding.

That said. my ultimate system test for rigs im either building or repairing, is to throw CoH at it for a couple of hours, if it comes out on top, its passed my test.

well thats a 2.3Ghz Quad core AM2+. How is the rest of your system? ram, video, power supply. Depending on the motherboard if it will run AM3 processors I'd just buy a new CPU. a Newer Phenom with a better core and more cache. keep the memory, maybe upgrade it, and your video card

Well I dont use Tough/Weave too often either, but If I want the defense, I'll use it.
Also, concerned about psi on a invuln? I have 18% psi defense thanks to weave, combat jumping and a few chance set bonuses I did not intend to boost psi defense, I was just concerntrating on the others

Reguarding Willpower. It might have Quick Recovery, but Willpower kinda needs it. Its toggles are much more expensive to run and I too, start drinking that blue bar a little too quickly on my WP tankers

was on a double xp team yesterday and during the mission, my character leveled up to 20. it picked up 3 tips before the mission was done.
I don't think its been changed. Just remember, like most other stuff in coh, bosses drop the best and they have to be at least level 20

yeah i do like their new installer. will wipe the old drivers but leave your profile in there if you want it to.

Running GTX460 1Gb and a GTX 260 768Mb (Core 216) both cards run CoH without issue.

Sorry Jeto, I run 64bit on 2 of the 3 computers here and they've never had an issue with CoH ever.
