Why is the "Spring Fling" hosted during the Winter?
Major_Decoy replied to Echo Night's topic in General Discussion
I'm sorry, I wouldn't know how to even start trying to throw a hot spring. -
Why is the "Spring Fling" hosted during the Winter?
Major_Decoy replied to Echo Night's topic in General Discussion
It's called Spring Fling because you go around throwing elastic coils at people. -
I just thought that we stopped at the drive through for some burgers on the way to the mission, but it would be interesting to have a team buff applied by mobile ramen truck. Ramen truck could be a defender set, tier 1 power is a long term heal over time/cold resist and tier 2 is an AoE knockback "hit by truck"

Not a bad idea, but is there a model of a mini-van available in game? And is there a way to make everyone be eating hamburgers as they leave it?

1) An enhancement booster is a multiplier. One enhancement booster provides a 5% boost to the enhancement. It will take a 20% enhancement to 21%. These stack additively up to five: (5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%) The higher the base value of the boosted enhancement, the better the booster performs. A level 30 IO that is 5 boosted will be stronger than a level 50 IO that is unboosted (34.8 * 1.25 = 43.5 vs 42.4) 2) It depends on how you like to play. If you want absolute peak performance at level 50, you'll get better performance by getting level 50 enhancements and +5 boosting them. If you exemplar a lot, then look at the level caps of the enhancements you're using. Sting of the Manticore, for example, has a minimum level of 35, so you're better off getting level 35 enhancements and +5 boosting them than you are getting attuned. If the set has a minimum level below level 30, like Luck of the Gambler, then if you got level 30 Luck of the Gamblers and +5 boosted them, you'd lose those set bonuses below level 27, whereas attuned you'll keep the set bonuses down to level 22. (So at the very least, the Defense/Global Recharge should be attuned in an exemplar build, there's a lot of popular content in the 22-26 zone)

Snacks: + health + stamina as you eat some GORP or a granola bar. Compass: Points your character north. Pocket Knife: You can stab someone with this. Insect Repellent: For a duration you are entirely immune to swarms Emergency Blanket: Like hibernate, you wrap yourself up in a blanket and go to sleep. No improvements to healing or defense, but you do get elemental and energy resistance.

Primal Mr. G's arc: what does he do, exactly?
Major_Decoy replied to MechaCrash's topic in General Discussion
With me it was a case of "I could be open to negotiation, but you threatened me and now you have to regret that." -

You know what, they'd be better even if they kept the crash but moved it to an activation cost.

We've covered this, it's because normal elevators have such small weight limits and you never know when a team of eight robots is going to jump in, so instead of fragile wires pulling up and down the elevators, there are hydraulic pistons.

Starting Blue-only Missions with a Rogue (or Villain?)
Major_Decoy replied to gameboy1234's topic in General Discussion
If it's the signature story arcs, they're easily started by vigilantes redside and rogues blueside, just like task forces and strike forces. Interestingly, old Blueside contacts that are pre-level 20 can also be run by Rogues because they didn't have any reason to check character alignment (they're contacts that you outlevel and alignment tips don't start dropping until level 20). -
So, cutting the head off can kill a vampire sometimes, if the worm doesn't grow its mouth back before it starves to death. Sticking a rock, apple, or clove of garlic in the mouth can make it harder for the worm to feed, so they'll starve to death if they can't remove it. Stabbing a worm in the heart can kill it too, but it's kind of hard to aim properly.
-
Vampirism is a parasitic worm that replaces your canines, similar to that parasite that replaces a fish's tongue.
-
No, that's what I'm saying, it only uses the flight pose when you're moving forward. It uses the power slide pose for left, right, and back.
-
As long as you don't use any amount of +forward, you can powerslide while flying. It works side to side and backwards just fine.

team leadership: looking for motivational quotes

Morituri Nolumus Mori Not in the face! -
Jab: Minor Smashing Damage, minor lethal damage to self. Smack: Moderate Smashing Damage, minor lethal damage to self. Thrust: Extreme Smashing Damage, heavy lethal damage to self. Build-up: You know what this is. Lacerations: Moderate Smashing Damage, 80% chance that any target that takes lethal damage will take Heavy DoT Taunt: Exactly what you expect Blood Spray: You can mark with targets with blood. This causes no damage, but will attract aggro and debuff to-hit. Knock-out Blow: Superior Smashing Damage, heavy lethal damage to self. Oh! This changes everything!: (toggle) All Smashing damage from the Knife! set becomes lethal damage, all lethal self damage is negated.

I vote Window Licker because there's no where else in the city we can faire du lèche-vitrine.

Well, clearly, I need to take that mission and complete it with only brawl. Edit: Maybe unslotted brawl? "All your powers to the the fullest extent" leaves a lot of room for disobedience. I'm probably breaking the terms just by not using Unstoppable.
-
One of the two is also only active when the power is active, and the other one is active constantly. I think it's the regeneration that's only active when the power is active, so it's not a "stick it in Unstoppable and forget about it" enhancement.

Its so hard to pick a character to fully invest in
Major_Decoy replied to Damoklese's topic in General Discussion
Unless you mean "Without Envenomed Dagger" then I'm pretty sure you can meet these requirements with Stalker, Scrapper, Brute, Tank, and Sentinel. I have soloed Leviathan with an Invulnerability/Titan Weapons Tank (though, to be fair, that was before the Titan Weapons rebalance) and a Psionic Melee/Shield Defense stalker. It took me 220 envenomed daggers, but I soloed the Manticore Task Force with a Radiation/Radiation tank. -
Warburg Nuke as an Incarnate Judgement Power
Major_Decoy replied to Alchemystic's topic in Suggestions & Feedback
An entity is something that exists. A facility is also something that exists, but not all entities are facilities, so facilities are subsets of entities. The unmanned missile platform is autonomous enough to keep you in sight at all times and fire upon your command. The Robotic Drone lores do pretty much the same thing. At the size of the projectiles being fired and the level of technology available in City of Heroes, you could Missile Justice raining from space with something the size of Siege. -
Warburg Nuke as an Incarnate Judgement Power
Major_Decoy replied to Alchemystic's topic in Suggestions & Feedback
A facility is a subset of entity. The difference between a Warwork and an unmanned missile platform is a matter of scale, and if the explosion has a blast radius of sixty feet, it can be a really small missile. It'd have a smaller payload than a Davy Crockett. -
Warburg Nuke as an Incarnate Judgement Power
Major_Decoy replied to Alchemystic's topic in Suggestions & Feedback
If a Longbow Echo can fire an rocket propelled grenade and do damage, I don't see why a Orbital Missile Platform Echo couldn't fire a missile. -
I suggest re-naming all of the characters Bruce to prevent confusion.
