Minor spelling, grammar, formatting error here. Might update if I find more. ('farther') Found another little one, this time in the dialog between mission 3 and 4 (..i think?) ('...some degree of interdimensional shifting?')

Is Mud Bath supposed to add some sort of damage? Cause it does show that it is in the CombatNumbers panel and in the detailed part of the InfoTab but doesn't have any mention of this all in the main power info blurb. Or am I missing this info from elsewhere in the set?

"Winter is Coming" "Winter Came" "Reindeer Games" "Big Surprise"

When levelling I usually only solo on Red or Gold because those sides have the better story lines, and honestly the only reason to solo (for me) is to read the stories, rather than any mechanical benefit. It has nothing to do with the fact that I'm all alone in the zone on Red and Gold. .... Honest.

I'm sorry for your loss. If you'd like to find out his global name, type in /getglobalname "Hurricane Rick"** and in your General tab (not Genchat) it should return the information you're looking for. If it says "Hurricane Rick does not exist" (something like that) you may need to try again on a different shard. But eventually you should be able to find his global name this way. **(usually this works without quotes, but I included them to be safe)

I'm a relative novice Blaster acolyte (I too enjoy the press and scrum of melee), but the two I most enjoy are an Elec/En/Elec and a DP/Nin/Mace. The Elec/En is mostly a ranged build, taking supreme advantage of using Power Boost before activating Aim and Buildup to max ToHit and Damage before launching the Ranged Nuke. Also has two hard hitting melee attacks for vaporizing anything that gets close. That said it's actually the tankier of the two and can suffer standing in front of anything short of an AV. The DP/Nin is a whirlwind of damage, with little to no thought required to play. Neither sets have an on-demand Damage/ToHit click, so there's nothing to manage. Instead it has a chance to crit on every attack, and crits out of hide like a Stalker, so you just stealth into the middle of a mob and unload fury. It's scrapperesque and leans towards a more zoned-out style of play. A mix of melee and ranged but you'll be in melee most of the time. DM if interested and I'll shoot you my builds.

Woof. Now there's an example to hold up high.

It's written as if it's a legend, but apparently he fell into a rift in the ocean floor during his final battle with a monster called Chimera. Then lava spilled out and created the actual Talos Island. It's superheroes so anything can happen, but that's a pretty good soft-kill and a little hard to come back from without some narrative boogaloo. Also, I think we should all take a moment to consider the differences between mutants (little 'm') which have been occurring naturally since the existence of life, and Mutants (big M) which are humans with goofy god-tier powers that develop spontaneously at puberty.

Just here to say: imagine thinking roleplaying is 'cringe' in an online roleplaying game.

I know we've drifted from the this point into more broadly agreed-upon topics of conversation, but I'd like to reinforce Luminara's point here because it's a good one: On Rebirth I had my T3 Alpha in 3 days (~10 hours) of play after hitting 50, using only shards (I was hording threads for the later unlocks). The time to godhood was nearly infinitesimal. On Rebirth. With its dramatically lower player count. I just advertised and ran the TFs I wanted that offered the drops I needed, did one Weekly, and the spare shards I picked up along the way filled the gaps. The argument that HC has trivialized the journey to being incarnate carries no weight with me in particular. So back to the quoted point: the is no meaning to the time invested in the grind because there practically wasn't any of that, even. And once you're there, you're there. Oh, and by the way? Rebirth doesn't have attuned IOs, either. If you think the Alpha shift is the power creep culprit, I'd like to introduce you to Blasters who solo Citadel TF in under an hour.

I'd suggest to you that you bundle requests 2-6 in a popmenu macro and drop them into team chat before you start your runs. You've cast a broad net here, and I'm sure you're frustrated. You might get more return on investment though if you communicate this to a more targeted audience.

Ah so let's assume OP is the only person who this helps. +1 for OP, would appreciate this option as well.

Like colorblind mode and accessibility ramps, a costume change option would have zero effect on you should you elect not to use it yourself.

Precisely as @Mezmera has laid out; explained better than I could have.

It basically already has in some regards. The recent rework of Afterburner is basically Jetpack's Turbo Boost with a new coat of paint. The power itself is even called "Fly_Boost" internally. I have my own theory on why these pools aren't going to get added, but it has nothing to do with OuroDev servers and more to do with how the HC player base has interacted with what's already provided. My forecast is we'll start to see more of what works cannibalized from the unfinished sets and incorporated into reworks of existing powers. I've played with this power on Sanctuary and Thunderspy and emphatically disagree. In it's 'current' state, with proper slotting you're looking at an absorb barrier that caps at your AT's base HP but with a 50% uptime. I mostly used this on /Regen characters to great effect, but I'd be drooling to have it available on any number of other AT/set combos. Especially Blasters and Doms. Or just my Inv/SS Tanker because I wanna. In line with my aforementioned tinfoil hat theory, I'd expect to see this power make it's actual debut as part of a rework to the Forcefield set.

Something like this has been an ask from the RP community for a while. Probably the #1 requested change. Thanks BH for taking output from your conversations and putting them here, with the rationale behind the specific suggestion as well.

In the underlined portion of this dialog, there seems to be an omitted word. On the HCWiki page it actually has the complete statement, oddly enough. This is from the final mission in the Tami Baker arc, Praetoria.

From Controller > Trick Arrow > Entangling Arrow. "This groudns them..."

Without knowing more, try moving the keybind to a dedicated subdirectory? Like coh\binds\shield1.txt And double check your formatting within the .txt files themselves, specifically where your quotation marks are placed.

Mechanically fun? DP / Nin Blaster is probably my favorite. Having the ability to crit, and crit out of hide, is stupendous. Tack on the survivability from the sets, proc options, and flashy sword and pistol animations and it's a perfect storm. Not objectively better than Fire/Fire for overall damage output, but certainly more fun to watch. Close after that are Grav/Martial Dominator (with non-Hasten Permadom, muahahaha) for the controlled chaos, and BR/Kin Corruptor for... I don't really know why. I just like it. Hits hard and buffs well.

Artillery was one of the sets that was added by HC about a year ago, so it's possible the original set they were working off of dropped starting at level 20. My guess is that it was templated off of Detonation. Good catch @Maloke.

@Oklahoman, on Everlasting there is a Master of Magi run every Saturday night (I think... I'm at +9 GMT) where the whole thing is executed via chat only. If you haven't already participated in one I think you should give it a look. A lot (though not all) of the suggestions in this thread are applied. I also think the ELTFs community* leaders also primarily use Request chat to give instructions during the Trials because it pops out in a vibrant magenta and contrasts well against the sky blue of the League chat. Not sure if they bake this in to their popmenus or just have their outgoing chat set to that, but it's something to consider. */chan_join "Everlasting TFs" ; visible from any shard and the MotD will have the daily raid schedule.

All those servers listed are servers from Live. My guess is that you're looking at the actual HC shards, but for some reason the old Live "wallpaper" is showing. Maybe your client is corrupt? I'd personally do a clean reinstall to see if that fixed the issue (though be sure to back up you subdirectories, as always).
