  1. I'm on Quattro Pro, personally.
  2. Yeah, given the timeframe, an SO sounds about right. It's still the reward, or a reward choice, in some content (SSA 1, for instance, gives you a choice of 4x merits, some incarnate bits, or... an accuracy SO. Siren's Call has an SO for 1000 bounty. That sort of thing.)
  3. I don't know that I'd personally need more enhancement tabs. Lately, though, I'd been rather wishing I had a button to just "compact enhancements," though, as I sell off SOs that drop and fill spaces between IOs I craft. It takes a while sometimes to move them around between tabs so I can see just how many I have (and, honestly, *what* i have) on some characters.
  4. Well, you get half of that. (Literally did that as a tip mission within the last 15 minutes.) I wouldn't argue with a "talk to or fight out" option in it.
  5. ... which is part of why I say the editor should be looked at first. I'll often be typing away and have it "stall" somewhere. Go back and click to look and it suddenly inserts your text elsewhere (well, where you clicked, if it's anywhere but right at the end. ) I'll often do the first, as well. It's just irksome.
  6. People can play what they want to play, however they feel like playing them. The most I'd do is mention "part 1 of this is in The Nosehair of Nosferatu story arc" so people who want to do it in order can. Less blocking of content is a good thing in most instances.
  7. ... yeah, to be honest I generally ignore that whole bit of lore. My electrical blast has Ion judgement because... it's a sensible progression, for instance. I *really* don't like the whole "the well can take you over, oooooooh!" bit. It was better when the well was more vague.
  8. As I recall, the issue with vehicles (other than some of them looking odd, if you've ever seen a sky raider skiff or longbow chaser in a small office) is having to reanimate *everything* to work with a vehicle. All attacks, buffs, etc. Not *as* much for something like a jetpack, since they tend to use flying animations anyway.
  9. Nope. Haven't been for a long time. Especially now, it'd be too easy to make an 'unwinnable' base to raid.
  10. Do you remember the alt? You should be able to /bindsavefile (filename.txt) - just use the alt's name - and see your binds set for it.
  11. Honestly... the *editor* needs work before we think about expanding!
  12. I only "care" enough to point out you're making bad assumptions while you're trying to demonize people. I did start to type up more, to explain why these assumptions are bad, but realized it would be an utter waste of time, especially on something that wouldn't happen anyway.
  13. Heh. No, you won't see that on an RP server. Quick quips thrown off, maybe a comment during a little down time (or while hunting down that last freaking mob...) but it's not like, "I see the enemy! I draw my sword, which shimmers in the lab's unnatural fluorescent lights, and prepare to strike!" *push button for attack.* "I haul back and prepare to follow up!" *push button.* RP generally takes place in certain areas, or in a SG setting - though you will get people putting out that they're running an RP team. You can go and just mash buttons and mostly ignore that you're on an RP server, if that's what you want. It's a pretty good crowd, regardless.
  14. See also "you don't play a way I like."
  15. ... ever read the Iron Druid series? More specifically, the side stories - look for, I think it's called first dangle. 🙂 (Only thing I can think of that does that is the Poison rez.)
  16. Who cares if someone transfers or not? I know we have some serious PVP hate in this thread, but seriously... who cares? Hell, if the people who are so upset about PVP and PVPers even breathing thought about it, they should be *happy* to let people move freely to a PVP server, whether they're "twinked out" or not. Not that such a server is going to exist on HC anyway.
  17. Not sure I mentioned another obvious, punlicious name. Celery. For a stalker.
  18. *waits for all the "Illusion on doms!"* *pre-mehs at that.* Other than that, hmmmmmm..... Have to work up an acid armor. Acid Armor: So. Being really honest, this is what Memphis Bill should have had. See, long ago in the 80s, Marvel came out with the New Universe. One of the characters there, Dennis Cuzinski / "scuzz" had a mutation which just kept his skin producing acid. Fast forward several years later, some friends were starting a Silver Age Sentinels game and the concept dangled in my head while making a character. What all could I do - besides eat through clothes and spit acid - with this? It actually came in rather handy. (And created a surprisingly large dice pool for some attacks... I kind of broke a bunker with a spitball. If you know Tristat, I had ... a *lot* of dice to roll for that.) Come City of Heroes, well, I figured to give the same idea a try. But the only thing available for a tank, which fit the rest of the character (with super strength) well, was Fire armor. So I ran with that, but wasn't really satisfied. COV came along and gave us brutes, with SS/Dark Armor. Closer, definitely. Then that swapped blueside, and I have the closest I came to the idea - a DA/SS tank. Sort of worked with the fear, too, because who'd want to get close or stay close to this acid-reeking guy? But it was still just "close." So what should Acid armor be? - Resist based. I just dont' see Acid giving a defense of any sort, really. Though it may affect tohit. - Damage enhancing. Probably Toxic. - Weakness would *likely* be cold. - AOE based. Yes, an AOE damage toggle - but I could also see this creating an area for team resists (the enemy gets too close, acid in the air affects their ability to fight as well,) *potentially* defense (same reason,) and/or enemy -tohit. - Buffing regeneration. Since, after all, whatever caused you to have this acidic armor probably doesn't want you dying of it. Or maybe it's just your body's reaction. Considering: - The set builds off and reinforces itself, not just by having more armor, but in a fashion similar to how the Fighting pool's attacks are more effective if you have more of them. - Having a heal that also gives a damage buff. You're healing yourself with an odd acid, it should have other odd effects. Or maybe it just *hurts* and punching something harder makes you feel better. I'm not judging. - Should probably work up an acid melee with a lingering DOT to go with it. Edit: Rough idea. Not a numbers guy, so... no real numbers. And the order can be switched around. Potential workup: T1: Ooze. Passive S/L/Toxic. (Gets folded into first armor toggle for stalkers.) T2: Acerbic aura Active S/L/Toxic/fire? toggle. T3: Sulfrous Succor Passive +regen. T4: Corrosive Cloud PBAOE damage aura - toxic/?. Slight boost to T1 when taken. Adds KB protection to T1. (Or just add here.) T5: Boiling blood Self-heal. Slight dmg boost. (Possibly where to put status protection?) Boosts T2 when taken. T6: +Recovery. Adds chance to stun to Corrosive Cloud. (Adds other resists to T2? Or just put them here?) T7:Acid puddle PBAOE placed acid puddle. DOT. Boosts T3 when obtained. Yes, I was tempted to call this "dropped acid." T8: ... all right, I don't know. Something nifty, hopefully. T9: Vaporous... PBAOE toggle. Team +Def/+Res and/or enemy -tohit. Boosts Corrosive Cloud
  19. ... and closes fast. Seriously, if you're thinking "Oh, I'm mid mission, I can do that in 15 minutes," you'll be surprised when you suddenly *can't* because it's covered already!
  20. I have ... Celery. (Debating moving it over to my main account.) The bio: (Had to be done.) The Hamidon knows it has to evolve to drive its takeover. So it started creating new forms. Brutes that could beet its foes to oblivion. Some, it gave the skill to arti-fully choke its enemies. Don't ask about the kumquat. But Celery. Celery is aware. Independent. Cunning. Rebellious, it fights against its creator. Celery stalks the night.
  21. ... we need a Mighty Hover power. Hover to where there's absolutely no doubt you're hovering, and *will* hover, right there.
  22. Well, they're boxes about yea wide and yea tall, filled with electronics, drives and small hamsters that are *very* good at heating up a room en masse. Mostly the electronics do that, the hamsters just kind of ask for more water. Only ones I can really say antyhing about go with the server descriptions - I'd check the individual boards out. Everlasting is the best server, since it's the unofficial RP server. 🙂 There's often something going on. Like MSRs? Two a night. Hami raids? Several per night. And everything else keeps rolling. INdomitable is the unofficial PVP server. Can't say what it's like over there. Reunion's the Euroserver. I understand there are many small cars and disco clubs there, and they type with outrrraaaegous accents. 🙂
  23. I *want* to say it's from the buffs from the toggles being reapplied. Not 100% on that though.
