In short, don't ever let someone else's biases tell you you shouldn't/can't do something in this game.

And before someone tries to bring up Super Reflexes.
Even in a Rage crash, it's still above soft-cap for Melee & AoE.
For Ranged, it's at 41%.
Again, eat an Inspie or pop Elude if you must.

Basically Rage bumps your +Damage and +ToHit.
However, when it wears off, you experience a damage crash (you're not doing NO damage, but VERY little).
Worse, your Defense crashes as well.
There used to be a bug, whereby if you had Rage double-stacked, you'd be able to avoid the Defense crash (but not the Damage crash.
From Xaeon's point of view, it's not worth taking on a Defense-centric set BECAUSE of said crash.
Never mind thaton such sets you can USUALLY over-build your Defenses to compensate for it.
Also, contrary to popular delusion, dipping below soft-cap is NOT an automatic death sentence (like Invulnerability's Unstoppable crash is).
The game provides all sorts of mitigation options.
Defense Soft Cap simply provides maximum mathematical safety.
Case in point. On this build, you can experience a Rage crash and your Melee defenses remain above Soft-Cap.
Your others dip into the mid-30's. Oh no! Eat a Defense inspie before the crash and be done with it...
In short, the Rage crash is real.
The concerns about it are overblown.
Because...DRAMA!

Hey guys? Can you help a brother out and post the data chunk too?
-
Okay: Health and Stamina slotting
BARE MINIMUM
Health:
Panacea +HP/End
Numina's Convalescence +Regen/Recovery
Miracle + Recovery
Stamina:
Performance Shifter Chance for +End
Endurance (Set or Generic)
(Optional) Endurance (Set or Generic)
Quick Recovery:
Performance Shifter Chance for +End
(Optional) Endurance (Set or Generic)
The reason to go for the Perf Shifter proc first is that, even when completely drained, it still gives you a bump of Endurance faster than your simple Recovery will.
-
Outside of games, don't let the MCU fool you. It's propping up the entire movie/tv-superhero tent.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
S'TREWTH!
-
What exactly does "stop sending all buffs" do?
Basically all the medallions/icons that show under your status bar? (Where your health and Endurance are showing?)
It basically turns those off. Not just for YOU, but it stops broadcasting that stuff to the whole league.
Considering we have 40-50 people (plus pets), all HEAVILY buffed, that's a LOT of needless traffic to and from the server.
-
Correct me if I'm wrong, but there are more pylons these days and/or a few have been moved around. I noticed this when I did a raid on Homecoming for the first time... there's a pylon directly North of pylon 7 (I think I have the number right -- the one close to the back end of the ship / section that's below the ground surface). I think there may be 1 or 2 others that are different or new, but I noticed that one right away, because I'd never seen it before. I wondered if I had somehow just never noticed it before, maybe I always went straight to pylon 7 and half the team went and killed this other pylon, but then I realized that the drop ship was a new thing too, so they'd made a change on the SCORE server, and apparently added at least one pylon. Your map confirms that I wasn't just crazy and had never noticed it, because you don't have it on your map either.
Yes, there are. This is part of an older guide I created that pre-existed 19 & 20. And I don't have a map that both shows the pylons and is free of the raid pathing and pylon numbers.
Looking to see what I can do to replace.
Okay! The joys of an ultra-high resolution screen!
Max the map out and screencap!
A little Photoshop and VOILA!
Pylon order updated!
-
I promise I'm not just following you around Hyperstrike...guess we are just interested in the same stuff (although from different view points).
I have no problem with you having your own opinion.
Everybody's gotta be wrong at some point.
And maybe, some day, it'll even be MY turn!
;)
Seriously though. As long as everyone stays moderately civil, I have no problem with the conversation, and we can always agree to disagree.
I don't think people who don't see things the way I do are inherently evil. (Well, not much...) =)
-
Ignore the guy that suggested Fraps.
Nice...very adult...
-
Sure it’s an attainable goal, but in the 6 years this was a secret server, all we got was the one TF. Not just in Kallista, but in the entire game (content wise).
You got a bit more than that. Finishing the zone, physically, took no small amount of effort.
In the mean time, you have projects for various things going on and various things "falling over" and needing fixing.
You also have multiple projects partially implemented or tried, failed and dropped as well.
Honestly? The BIGGEST beneficiary of the last 7 years has been BASES.
Go look at the base editor as it exists NOW and tell me multiple kilo-buttloads of work didn't go into that.
With a sufficiently large and trusted dev crew? Sure. Things can speed up.
-
Superheroes, niche? Box office numbers both domestic, and worldwide for the superhero movies would suggest otherwise. I believe it really does come down to marketing, and reaching those out there who obviously love the genre, but were just unaware that it was a thing. Even today, I'm sure if word of the game's return were more widespread outside of the typical gaming outlets, population on all of the various CoH servers would likely skyrocket.
Yep. Niche.
The Marvel/DC movies have BRAND RECOGNITION.
So their draw is wider.
EVERYONE knows who Superman and Batman are.
EVERYONE knows who Spider-Man and Wolverine are.
The most common question I get when wearing Statesman's star?
"Ooh! Captain America?"
Remember the Russian-made "Guardians" film?
Made a whopping $15M on a $5.4M budget.
Basically CoH's lore has almost zero societal penetration.
Whereas the Big Players have had 75 YEARS of exposure.
-
Trying it on a Sentinel today, it does KD but no damage for me on enemies.
Oh yeah. THAT is busted...
-
I know we're all probably a tiny bit biased but I really can't think of anything (though that might be because I never got far in wow since I never enjoyed it)
So what does WoW do better than CoX?
Since CoH was launched a few months before WoW, I'd say that the problem was, as always, NCSoft. Had they done their job as a publisher, WoW might have become a mere anecdote and all MMO's out there would be trying to be "the CoH killer" but since NCSoft did nothing for the game except getting money from it, WoW's marketing and publicity made it the most famous MMO ever.
Yes and no.
With Superhero products, there are market penetration problems in Asia for anything without name recognition.
On top of that, WOW gave away HUGE numbers of accounts in Asia to kickstart their numbers.
-
Also be aware that it can be very I/O intensive.
So trying to screen record 1920x1080 or above can be problematic (choppy framerates, etc).
-
And ... my mother retired recently. She has a 401(k). It contributes 0 to her standard of living - in part because she's treating it like an emergency fund, and in part because she's extremely loathe to pay taxes on any withdrawals (obviously, hers is a tax-deferred 401(k) ...).
She may want to look into other methods of holding her money if she's truly worried about "emergencies".
Cashing out a 401k can take anywhere from two weeks to several months, depending on the vehicle.
In an ACTUAL emergency, this lack of short term liquidity can screw you.
Also remember that once mom hits 70-1/2, she's REQUIRED to take out a minimum distribution. And the penalty is 50% of said distribution if you miss it.

Pulling my hair out trying to figure this problem out. I have a Brute Rad/Invuln build in Mids Reborn. Under totals it says I should have S/L defense of 40.3% In game it's showing at 29.76%. Powers and enhancements the same in Mids and in game, all toggles are on in game. I have a second Brute that's spines/fire as a farmer and all the numbers are matching on that character. What am I missing?
Are you near any enemies?
If not, you have nothing to trigger Invincibllity. So it's like the power is turned off.
The second you step up to an enemy, you can watch your combat monitor jump.
Your Spines/Fire has all steady-state Defense. So of course it'll match.
In Mids, right-click on Invincibility. This locks it as the desired power to view.
Then flip to the Info tab.
You'll see a slider-bar next to "Foes".
By default it mins-out at 1.
You can go into the database editor, however, and set that to 0.
[*]Options
[*]Advanced
[*]Database Editor
[*]Main Database Editor
[*]In the far-left pane, select "Brute Defense" (or "Tanker Defense" if you want to tweak Tanks)
[*]In the middle pane, select "Invulnerability"

[*]Click EDIT
[*]In the lower left-hand corner, look for Scale Range.[*]Change the on on the LEFT from "1" to "0".[*]Click OK

You can now change the minimum on Invincibility to zero.

The above flicker issue link fixed my problem.
Stupid question. Were you using NVSurround? Or just running the monitors individually?

If you are looking to run your OWN raids, I already have a nice POPMENU script!
It's attached below.
As noted, there's options for running out of various numbered instances of the RWZ.
Sometimes, running a raid in a zone full of others can be a problem (as a raid almost fills a zone by itself).
So, with GM assistance, they can spin you up a new instance. Usually the parameter for zone number is 1-14 (with 1 simply being "RWZ" and 2-14 being RWZ2, RWZ3, etc).
Being a bit redundant this way keeps you from having to send additional, manual messages after a "Meet in RWZ" like "I mean RWZ12".

Below is a basic layout for running a mothership raid.
Your server may have done (or may do) them differently.
This is how things generally ran on Protector (with allowances made for changes since close).
If the info given here doesn't match YOUR raid style, please feel free to add onto this guide at any point!
Rush the Rikti? Yep! That's what Protector called it's weekly ship raids. If it was good enough for Protector, it's good enough for Paragon!
Here's when we run!
Day: Every Wednesday Night
Time: 9PM Eastern (Click on link to see what that is in YOUR time zone.)
Server: Insert Server Here
Location: Rikti War Zone
Assembly Point: Point Du Hoc.
Raid Pylon Order: 12, 11, 14, 17, 15, 13, 19, 16, 6, 5, 7, 20, 4, 8, 3, 2, 9, 18, 10, 1
Also, if anyone is interested in training up/becoming an alternate raid leader for the event, please contact me.
This way, if both Stone and I fall off the face of the earth, the event can continue until we resurface.
Basic Strategy.
- Hit the pylons in order (as defined above)
- Once all the pylons are down, we move up onto the ship.
- On the ship, there are 3 "lanes". Each with 6 grates. Behind each grate is a bomb. We need to bust through the grates and set off as many bombs as possible. NOTE: We're limited to one bomb per team within a period of 30 minutes or so.
- From here we have everyone gather at the edge of the bowl, buff up and the GM.
- From here, we basically mass into the center of the bowl and fight off waves. More durable members can head up around the top of the bowl and into the other wings and draw enemies back to the bowl.
- Kick Rikti butt until the shield comes back up.
Things to do to prep for the raid.
- Make sure to complete the Vanguard Intro mission! This way you can earn Vanguard merits.
- If you're already sitting on a stack of VMs, pick yourself up a Vanguard Heavy from one of the stations in the HQ. They help make the run go easier. NOTE: On VERY full runs, we may request that you forego Incarnate and bought pet powers. The game engine has limits on how many individual entities it can render in a scene. And an entire league doubling or tripling their numbers this way results in a raid where you can't see ANYTHING. Masterminds will ALWAYS be able to use their default pet powers though.
- Add the REQUEST channel to your chat window someplace visible.
Now lag/latency can be an issue in a ship raid. A zone full of people can really REALLY hurt during the raid.
Here's one of the things you can do to help reduce the network load during the raid. Turn off sending all buffs. Here's how!
- Click on Menu
- Click on Options
- Go to the Windows Tab
- Three sections near the bottom
- Status Window Buff Display
- Group Window Buff Display
- Pet Window Buff Display
[*]The last entry in each is "Stop Sending All Buffs"
[*]Set to ENABLED
- Status Window Buff Display
Calling bombs:
This is basically how I treat bomb lanes on the ship.
We normally come in on the south bomb lane (it's the one closest to the final pylon).
When you call out for a bomb, please do so in BROADCAST.
Also, if you can, cite left or right and the number.
If someone calls BOMB! and you're not sure WHICH one? MOVE! PERIOD!
Contact: Hyperstrike
Recurrence: Weekly
- Hit the pylons in order (as defined above)
-
You can keep track of in-game chat channels and private messages with Discord? How?
You have to coordinate with the server owner. But it's possible to tie in channels with a Discord bot spec-written for the purpose.
I unfortunately don't have links.
Are people even interested in this any longer?

Additionally, before a bunch of people get ready to invest serious quantities of time into further development, they'll want to have an agreement in place with NCSoft to prevent life-ruining lawsuits.
