I vaguely remember Kinetics being involved... I think both for speed boost and increase density. Been a while though. Either that or well timed teleport chains.

If it shuts Chaz up, ASAP.

Assuming you mean the attempted attachment - check *all* the attachments you have. You have limited storage on the forums, and if you've got less than 52k left? Yep, too large. You'll want ot host stuff externally (or delete old stuff you've attached.) Click on your name/profile image in the upper right, click "My attachments." It will tell you how much space you've used up.

While ... rather less than what I had on live, and even considering duplicates (for multi-character availability during RP,) when it comes to summaries of them all? I believe the phrase is... "Ain't nobody got time for that." 😄

Back on live, yeah, I'd grab AE tickets when I could. Some of the salvage and stuff was just stupidly expensive and it was a nice alternative for something I was doing anyway. Converting threads or whatnot to it? Ehhh...

Still have a few COV Collector boxes and COH boxes around with them, yeah.

I do not need an interpreter, thank you, nor did I mention anything being "time limited." I'd think context would have made the meaning clear, but since not: "Holiday" in this context is to illustrate something not common or by default happening every day. (Thus the "It turns it from "holiday" to "everyday." ) People do, in fact, run those task forces with the goal of triggering invasions. (Making it something "not everyday," similar to a holiday.) Moving it to a special "invasion zone" makes it everyday and removes a reason for people to run those events (or join those that want to run them.)

Generally against "let's make semi-special things not special any more by doing them year round," TBH. It turns it from "holiday" to "everyday."

*looks up at "Double XP is active on all shards."* ... yep. Would love it.

I get sick of those events *really* fast. Continual events? No F'ing Thanks. Even the people that love them would probably be sick of them before six months were out. Besides, it'd pretty much just be a sign of "we have no ideas for anything new."

... for starters, there are clubs open throughout the week. Multiple ones. People go there for someplace not-Pocket D to RP. Black Cat, RIsing Phoenix, Afterhours and others are regular destinations. (I tend to find BarP boring, so not really my thing unless someone sounds like they have an interesting DJ, but they're open nightly or weekly.) Or, you can hang out in PD for a bit and wait for one of the many RP SGs to advertise. (They'll also advertise in Atlas, or just in LFG. Maybe in General, don't know, I delete that tab immediately.) Krimson *does* have a point about what ToT does to stuff, too. MSRs are half-ToT it feels like during the month, not to mention the mob (that occasionally chases GMs) at "Hotel Hell."

So, the main question is ... *WHY* should they be from Praetoria? Praetoria has a very specific lore behind it and why it is the way it is. It's not just "post apocalyptic wasteland." If you "have no idea what that character would be lore-wise other than from Praetoria," then, to be frank, you don't know why they should be from Praetoria, either. You need to run a character through Praetoria and/or sit down and read the lore behind it before deciding "yes, this fits my character." Heck, before Going Rogue, all we really *had* on Praetoria was "evil mirror moustache-twirling Paragon," pretty much. I have *several* characters from destroyed worlds - some in this universe, some from alternate dimensions. The ones from Praetoria are *very specifically* chosen to be from that environment and history. The others? Well, it's very freeing to be able to create your own backstory. And if you see it and still say "This character should have been Praetorian, the Cole dictatorship, Hamidon wars, etc. fit to a T?" Then... you have 1000 slots per shard. Remake the character and start them in Praetoria. Transfer the name, the build, etc.

... is often better than a master of one. Funny how folks forget the rest of that phrase and how it rather changes the meaning. The villain EAT was initially going to be the Nictus. Which, as I recall, due to player "villains get hero castoffs/second best/no real dev attention" complaint meant they went through and created the (still rather rushed feeling, to me, especially with the arc) Soldiers/Widows. As far as the rest... No, I don't use, or like, "changeling" binds. No, I don't feel "not competitive." I'm not here to compete. The only people who should worry about "compatitive" are the... what, 10 people? who PVP. Frankly, I tend to see "this AT isn't competitive!" arguments as ridiculous. (Same with "the team has to carry" nonsense.) Any "competition" is solely in your head. Meanwhile, I can create the characters who match the concepts I have for them and finish missions. (As far as the other post about "ebs/avs in Kheld arcs," the only NPC that ever causes an issue is Nosferatu. That's one, in a series of arcs going from 1-50. No, "solo an AV" is not where we want to balance the game. It's already stupidly easy to get ridiculously overpowered as it is.) Could they use tweaks? Sure. Newer content's being made with the idea people are IO'ing up and such, which is an issue as far as I'm concerned. What I'd most want to see for both epic sets we have (HEAT and VEAT) would be other-side arcs... though given what I've seen in some recent releases touching on Kheld lore, I'm less enthusiastic about that and would probably just AE something up.

... why am I picturing someone punching stuff with a heal aura going off around them proportional to the size of the hit? Brawl for +10 HP...

Which defender? What you're describing is more true of some powersets than others. For instance, Empathy? Yeah, very team centric. Storm? Not so much. And most of the powersets are shared verbatim between the two.
