  1. Yes. By the devs. All the name DB is is a trace of random characters by pattern. And the main rule is "No dupes". You can rant and rage against that. Unless you have a fully working, drop-in example of code to fix that, you are essentially pissing in the wind. I know. It kinda sucks. I'd LOVE to have copies of my main on all the servers. However, some people managed to sneak in and snag those before I did. C'est la vie.
  2. If you're simply building without even using the other forms? The main problem is that focusing on that you're cutting your own balls off. You're limiting performance still. Now you don't HAVE to sacrifice. You can plan your Nova build around an almost identical build.
  3. And in case it isn't obvious, this build was put together around Level 40. Hence the non-L50 pieces.
  4. No, because that intimates we're blowing things up. NOT something we want to do with an expensive server.
  5. Also known as "Throw hardware at it" Like swapping in an LS7 engine into a Volkswagen Beetle.
  6. Better extended downtime than half-ass "solutions".
  7. Considering all the issues with 13X and 14X, that's a nice, solid upgrade. Depending on the unit, you might need to get newer mounting hardware. https://www.gigabyte.com/CPU-Cooler/AORUS-WATERFORCE-360/sp#sp Check your socket type vs the specs listed above.
  8. Say no more. I don't know enough about the way the machines are tuned to do more than just really basic advice.
  9. No you don't. I'm a well read spelling bee champ. And there's always the chance I could be an idiot.
  10. Additionally, pursue your Accolades. Portal Jockey/Born in Battle is +5% Health and +5% Endurance Received the Atlas Medallion/Marshall also grant +5% Endurance. These don't sound like they give you a lot. They don't. However, they give you just enough to COMPLETELY change the performance profile of your character. Throwing in the Performance Shifter Proc is probably the easiest and cheapest way to quickly bump your Recovery. As it's roughly equivalent to an L50 EndMod IO in Stamina. And after the first two slots, is BETTER than an EndMod IO due to the effects of Diminishing Returns.
  11. System: Ryzen 5950X (Water Cooled) 64GB RAM 4TB (2/1/1) Samsung SSD NVIDIA RTX 3070Ti PSU: Seasonic Prime 1000W (Currently have a 1300W EVGA unit as an emergency backup. Before my EVGA points went away...) UPS: APC BackUPS 1500 (ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY! Power in my place can't handle the draw and if the USP is disconnected, the machine just resets itself.) Fans: 2x 200mm https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07ZP46RNR 8x 140mm https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00KF7O58G Radiator: 360mm Corsair Hydro H150 (Had all the LED crap removed) https://www.microcenter.com/product/662689/corsair-icue-h150i-elite-capellix-xt-360mm-all-in-one-liquid-cpu-cooling-kit-white Original radiator setup was damaged during a system servicing and needed fast replacement (Is my personal work machine. And trying to operate from a laptop SUCKED!
  12. Every time I hear a variant of this term, I'm immediately drawn to this:
  13. I'm running a 3070Ti. Had the same behavior on the same system with a 2060. Tried it on both Win10 and Win11. Now back on Win10 because of Microsoft idiocy.
  14. Also, what resolution are you editing at? I'm finding that running at 6K renders the editor nigh unusable.
  15. Well, considering you're hitting all three of the hardware "gotchas" (sufficient CPU (speed and total processing power), memory and solid state drives, here's hoping this upgrade will fix (or at least ameliorate) the issue. And yes, I'm preaching to the choir. But look at how much memory gets held onto (Properties/Memory - Minimum Server Memory) before clearing the DB. If you're set to default 0 MB, this can cause slowdowns as the system tries to dump memory and can actually cause processes to hang. Worse, with zero, it can sometimes cause the service to choke itself out (memory starvation), Try 256/512/1024. I've run into this on several clients and have gotten beneficial results. If this doesn't appear to be your case, feel free to file my suggestion in the bit bucket.
  16. No. As I said, they're demonstrably tougher. But missions using the whole "ambush wave" mechanic? Remember, bumping level and enemy size will ADD difficulty. But ambushes MULTIPLY it. A standard group is going to be about 4 enemies. A x2 makes it 8. An ambush wave takes it from 8 to 24 -32-+ How many enemies can a Level 14 ANYTHING fight through? "You're supposed to run away..." *Wipes bum with this possibly-true but still unacceptable answer.*
  17. My only real...well...OBJECTION...are the frequent and rather unrelenting nature of the ambushes in such missions. Seriously. We're in our teens and early 20's, and things like Recovery are VERY hard to come by. There's even a couple such missions in single-digit ranges! So here! Have an ambush or two! Or three. HELL! HAVE FOUR! STACKED! Oh! Stealth! WUZZAT? With the way the missions balance out, being able to bump difficulty, which is fairly dependable Red/Blue side goes from "Tough" to "OMGWTFBBQ!!!!!" with almost no notice. These kinds of shifts are why I normally don't play Gold Side AT ALL. So I've got a couple of characters I've gotten into the side switching. But I've got more which are more or less permanently gated Gold Side because trying to advance them is nearly as fun as a do-it-yourself Orchidectomy with a shop vac and a saws-all,
  18. This build doesn't really require Hover, as the Defense numbers are already in the "OMG STOOPIT!" range. The only reason I do it this way is to get the prerequisite power selections for Rune Of Protection to jack up the Resist numbers.
  19. Yes. VERY unhappy with the state of Mids. Crippling a functional, but not always stable sharing system for a new system that's simply non-functional.
  20. Come on! You KNOW you want the Sister Psyche reading a pervy van's mind and grossing out on film!
  21. Yes. There's a reason why CoH still exists and could save/fix the superhero genre. Look in your mirror to see one of them. And thank everyone looking in the mirror after reading this.
  22. Basically the devs cannot run a cash store. And a large number of items introed from the cash store have been integrated into the game in ways that allow players to earn them.
  23. Teaming...LOTS AND LOTS OF TEAMING! (City of Soloists)
  24. I think I rented some space om Ascendant's A-Hole
  25. Thing is, if you can build an Invuln right, Unstpp gives you very little...
