Special Tricks And Righteous Tech

Great suggestion! 😉 Sadly we are not that far from a time when any implication of homosexuality was intended to be a nasty slur. Some folks still react that way.

Now I am goin to be actively looking for a chance to use pocket battleship to refer to a cute young gay or bi man. I write fanfic.

in my head it harkens back to the actual pop group name you were riffing off of so yeah, ballet in a certain environment might be more brutal than dancelike. ^^

I would go with street justice.

Apologies in advance if this suggestion seems irrelevant but I run the game with one earbud in. It gives me glowies and enough sound to make me feel comfortably *in world* but also lets me have a ear free to hear the phone or the door or whatever (food timer etc.). It also reduces the effect of annoying sounds quite a bit.

I use this on all my mele alts: /bind ` "target_enemy_near$$follow" You can change the key you bind to, I use the accent because it's beside 1 and nothing else uses it by default. Hope thi sshelps!

Yay!

WOW!!!!%^*)(@$$%^^O.O;; Fantastic job, you guys & gals, I am seriously awestruck!

I did several on live quite innocently, until I was clued in that it was verboten, though I don't think any were exact clones some were darn close. One of the first was an exact copy, visual and name but not powers since this character's powers could not be created in this game. Yomiko Readman - The Paper, from Read or Die Never generic'd, I suspect the likelihood of anyone recognizing her was vanshing small, too obscure. She was renamed and remade as an elec/elec blaster without her signature outfit.

I don't see a problem, either way...

Totally steaking your giphy...

Trick or treating solo has always been difficult for early levels on up through the 30s, even on live. I usually try it at least once for any of my alts and a few seem to manage it better, while for others it's just not fun. At 50, on my scrapper I was able to actually enjoy ToTing in PI solo. With the new EBs, it would be a little more of a challenge if she didn't have her incarnate slots filled to T3 or 4. She can still get one-shotted, she's a regen scrapper, but not too often to make it enjoyable.

Now I want to make an Illusion controller named Superior Wits.

Allow me to congratulate you on remaining the Wandering Uterus! I had a mastermind named Florence Nightingale genericked during covid. Her original name was Nurse Rona, genericked because too 'controversial', which I renamed Florence Nightingale who was promptly genericked again. I appealed on the forum and was told I couldn't use a real person's name.... who was a historical figure... erm. Yeah. Anyway, I have actually been aware of the ancient diagnosis of Wandering (or as I heard it 'Traveling') Uterus. My friends and I often use it as a label for whatever funky mood we might be in or weird sensation that doesn't last... brief tummy ache? Traveling uterus! Tripped over own feet? Traveling uterus! Some celeb behaving badly? They must have traveling uterus. It pleases me to know Wandering Uterus is in Paragon protecting us all! 😄 Below: might be a case of traveling uterus....

I solo most of the time (like 92% of the time) and I have tried nearly every AT and almost every power set. Some of them solo faster, some slow. Tanks are slow. Safe, but slow. Scrappers were the original "best solo" on live int he early days. Brutes are similar but with their own vibe. Blasters can solo but play is entirely different, lots of thought, sniping, running away when necessary. Since Homecoming, I've had good experiences with Sentinels, water blast is fun to play. Masterminds also good, but again, different style of play. You have your own team (pets) and you generally act as support and they do the damage. Relatively recently I experimented with Illusion Control and found it surprisingly easy to solo, again, very different style of play but enjoyable. You don't get every bit of XP from confused kills but let's face it, it's fun to play if you have any tiny bit of immersion. I'm not a min/maxer, I don't run at +4/whatever, I'm not usually trying to speed level, just hit a nice spot between grindingly slow and hitting levels with enough of your powers to be fun.

Does anyone recommend a strategy for defeating Koago solo? At the level of the trial, that's where I stumble.
