Quote:let me try and explain... I have a concept for a character based on a name. *IF* the name is available, I would respec a character I think is marginal and strip the enhancements/recipes/salvage off of it before deleting it. if I have to do all that before I know the name is available, then find out it isnt, I will be rather ticked, cause not only do I not have a new character, I probably lost some IOs in the process of deleting the other character.Originally Posted by Emberly
Ya beat me to it!
in other words, it' can be an awful lot of work just to find out if a name is available -
Quote:which means if I want to build a new character based off of a name, I have to delete a character on a full server... that sucksOriginally Posted by Roderick
It's no longer on the character select screen, however, it's now at the bottom of EVERY page of the character create screen, and it actually works there!
Even better, if you check a name and it's available, it gets reserved, meaning that nobody else can use it unless you back out of the character creator, or type in a different name. -
before the last change you could check to see if a name was available before you started to build a character, now its gone?

I think they would eventually get over it. Most of them have their fun in the building.

Quote:This^^^ the new tutorial doesn't teach a whole lot, but at the same time, when I was a new player on a trial account a bit over a year ago, I almost didn't give the game a chance because of the old tutorial... there needs to be something inbetween...Originally Posted by Golden Girl
I would have liked to see enhancements and inspirations introduced in the tutorial - like after the mroal choice and training to level 2, Heroes could have been asked to go to a ruined building to help salvage equpment/supplies, and Villains could have been sent to a similar location to loot stuff from the ruins - it'd only need to be like 3-5 glowie crates to click on, with each one dropping a TO or an inspiration.
It would only have added a couple more minutes to the tutorial, but it would also have added some exploration to the tutorial area map, as well as giving basic info on enhancement and inspirations - the main info could still have bene given in the ongoing training arcs. -
EDIT: nevermind, I be dumb
the scrapper version becomes a big black ball of dark matter, the brute version you can still see the base model, is this normal? -

Difficulty is a personal choice. I'd loathe the day when ONE person can decide how difficult an encounter will be for 7 other people.

Does this mean that I will not get my vet reward that is due to come up on the 1st of October?

I had one generic'd and I think it was a really weak reason.
She was a plant/earth Dominator called "Dirty Hoe"... the excuse was they didn't want to condone prostitution. I had to laugh considering I've been in missions where I "killed" someone, kidnapped someone, robbed a bank, and a few other nefarious deeds. There is a jewelry shop called "family jewels" as well.
Needless to say I didn't win my appeal -
got a Ill/Son on Guardian that I would very much like to run in somethign like that!
-
all things being equal, it looks like the scrapper comes out on top in a a couple of things, mostly damage, even in others, mostly defenses and a power choice in the epic pool with one having an end reducer and the other an endurance mod.
the DEF and RES are identical (in my build)
D S/L 40.9
D Neg 34
R S/L 51.8
R Neg 47.9
but damage-wise a scrapper, before crits are considered, beats out the brute running at 75% rage
Shadow Maul 280 vs 324 (648 w/crit)
should I scrap the brute and start over?

could we have a different look to Dark Melee's Midnight Grasp? I'm not a fan of the look of the tentacles, maybe just a re-colored ring of fire animation?

Woot! got mine 15 minutes ago and applied it successfully!
now Im off to disable my facebook account again -
Let me see if I get this straight...
Before freedom:
pay monthly fee, have access to everything.
stop paying monthly fee and you have access to nothing.
After freedom:
buy game, pay monthly fee, have access to everything.
stop paying monthly fee have access to most everything.
never paid monthly fee have limited access.
I fail to see the problem -
Sonic/Mental Blaster produces all sorts of big orange numbers... Concentration/Amplify/Howl/Psychic Scream/Siren's Song, then plink away with scream and shout until the AoE's recharge, not that there is much standing at that point

Quote:nope, you get the max that your level is, 25 gets 25, 28 gets 28, 50 gets 50 (unless the IO set caps out at a lower level)Originally Posted by Emberly
If you lock at 25 aren't you getting level 28 rolls? Been awhile since I randomrolled anything.

Quote:and I'll repeat what you said as well... "And yes, you are right about the +3's being better than IO's. But that doesn't justify saying "use SO's, they're better" when they're numerically inferior in every case but the one you've presented."Originally Posted by Nalrok_AthZim
Are you farming in the AE? Because you can still get those with tickets. If not, more power to you, but I can't see the point of locking any toon at 25; you'd miss out on too many great utilities above level 30.
Did I say it wasn't?
Re-read my post, champ. I repeat: A level 35 IO outperforms a level 50 SO. If you're smart, you'll deck yourself out with IO's at level 35, and never need to update an enhancement again until you decide to slot in sets.
Apparently you missed the part about even level 25 SOs being better than IOs
I said "depending on what you are doing, he's right" I didn't say every case, I dont kniow why you are blowing this out of proportion the way you are, Champ, you arent proving anything to me I didn't already know.
as for locking at 25, the slider has been mentioned above, I don't want any recipes over lvl 25. Don't tell me how to play the game, ok Champ? -
Quote:1) I lock my farmer at 25 so I can get lvl 25 recipes rolls.Originally Posted by Nalrok_AthZim
But why would you ever remain locked at 25? This edge case, while proving your point, doesn't really last very long anyway. Besides, level 35 IO's outperform level 50 SO's, effectively negating any need for re-enhancement until 50 if you deck out with them at 32.
EDIT: And yes, you are right about the +3's being better than IO's. But that doesn't justify saying "use SO's, they're better" when they're numerically inferior in every case but the one you've presented.
2) look again... a lvl 25 SO is better than a level 25 IO
Quote:
a 25th level Recharge IO = +32.0%
a 25th level Recharge SO = +33.330%
And one more thing (before this spirals out of control) I did say "depending on what you are doing, he's right "

I am interested to hear of such a situation.
a 25th level Recharge IO = +32.0%
a 25th level Recharge SO = +33.330%
a 28th level Recharge SO = +38.330%

I was sold at "put on SOs they enchance much better than IOs".

so with Blinding Feint you get a +to hit and a + damage
with the empower combo (which includes Blinding Feint) you get a + to hit and a + to damage...
whats the difference or am I missing something? I don't see any difference when they are executed -
I had the same question a few months ago, here is my experience. get what you will use most... for us it was atlas, kings row (teleports you right across the street from the train depot), Talos, Steel Canyon, Brickstown (kills 2 birds with one stone since you show up next to the opening of crey's folly), Founders Falls, RWZ, PI & Pocket D & Eden.
I have had no requests for other porters to be added. -
just to chime in and say same here, didn't matter if we in an instance or not

So I joined an Irish based SG last night and built a character, I tried naming her Phooka (another variant of Pooka) but it said this name is not available (not this name is already in use)... is there a copyright issue I'm missing?
