I disagree with that as well. Look, Scrappers have plenty of ways to keep a target from running. My MA Scrapper has Air Superiority, Crippling Axe Kick and Dragon's Tail. Any of which will keep most targets from running. Other Scrappers have things like Disembowel and Jawbreaker. I can hear your reply now: "But Peregrine, you can't knock or immob an AV!" Yeah? Well, AV's will often just ignore taunt and do whatever they want, so what's the difference? Next reply: "But Peregrine, if I take Crappy Axe Kick it'll lower my Arcanatime DPS." Ok. Well, that's the trade off you make, I guess. More DPS or the ability to stop runners. That's sounds like good game mechanics to me.

I'm old and half blind and partial red-green colorblind on top of that. So I totally do get it. I understand your point of view now, and I sympathize. Sorry, I wasn't trying to start an argument. I was honestly just asking questions. Please remember that the "tone of voice" that you "hear" when you read my posts is in your head, not mine. Peace.

What? No! I don't mind having a taunt aura on my Invuln Scrapper, but I like the fact that my SR Scrapper doesn't have a taunt aura. I use that fact to single out targets while the rest of the team is dealing with other things ,without drawing aggro away from the tank (or the blaster :). Motion denied. We'll adjourn until tomorrow.

Wait, what? So the slider that works for everyone else just magically doesn't work for you? So because of this the developers should do a bunch of work on the powers FX? What? That just doesn't make any sense. Perhaps you can explain it to me.

Ok, that's what I thought. So "turn down the FX slider" is literally a solution that someone could use. Thanks for the info. So @ZacKing why not slide that FX slider down until you get it to where you like it. Isn't that exactly what you want?

Ok, that makes sense. I thought there was a slider to tone down power FX without affecting the graphics of the world and characters. And I misremembering? I'm at work right now and can't log in to check.

More Jedi lies!

How are they not a solution? Not trying to be a jerk here. I'm just asking because I genuinely don't understand why turning the graphics down isn't a solution. This is a super hero game that has super hero effects. And it was made in 2004. If it weren't for the tiny interface I could run this game on my phone.

Please don't add a special mode to make Task Forces soloable. 99.99% of the content in this game is soloable. There should be at least a little bit of content that usually requires a team.

The only quirky thing that I was able to spot with your post was that you used the apostrophe, and spelled plurals and possessives, correctly. BTW GVT, just out of curiosity, is English your native language?

In English, the first word in a sentence must always be capitalized. You don't capitalize nouns in English unless they are proper names. Words written in all capital letters is only allowed in the titles of articles and chapters. Otherwise is a single word. Scrapper Invulnerability also has a taunt aura. Am I doing this right? .

Well, unless the devs are going to "gate keep" these tokens so that only certain people are allowed to get them then it will be open to everyone. That's why I suggested the Inf100 million cost. If you've played long enough to get Inf100 million then you probably should be able to insta 50 a character. Also, it functions as a money sink. Which, as we know, this game does not have enough of.

You are correct, it doesn't work for everyone, but everyone would have access to it. 99% of the content in this game is below level 50. If someone doesn't like playing below level 50 then they don't actually like most of this game. Here's a suggestion that I could support: Make the insta-level-50 token sold by a special vendor who's only in Paragon Dance Party. And it costs Inf100 million.

Riiiiight. That's why it keeps happening and when I've tried PMing the GM's before you all refused to even respond to my PMs.

I'm concerned that I might be missing something in your question. Currently "City of Villains" is an integral part of "City of Heroes." You can roll and play a character on the villain side of the game right now.

Personally I don't mind the "forums cops" confronting me. What I do hate is when someone gets mad because I shut down their argument, so they log out of their personal account and into their mod account so that they can mod-smack me. It's one thing to get mod-smacked because I got a little heated and stepped over the line, it's a completely different thing to get mod-smacked because the other person's ego is stinging because you took their argument apart. And do not waste my time telling me that this doesn't happen on this forum. I've been shown screenshots proving that it does and has happened.

I'm sorry to hear that, Greycat. I started using it again because it was a funny meme specific to City of Heroes that only us old-timers remember. And because I really like that gif. Then I kept using it because it's done a good job protecting me from... How do I say this? Forum moderators who are far more sensitive than I am. I'll just put it that way. Previously I'd explain why I thought a suggestion was a bad idea, the OP would respond and generally call me names, then I'd respond and explain why he was wrong, then he'd report my post and I'd get a warning point. I'm guessing that I only get so many warning points before I get banned. So that /jranger gif has done a great job protecting me from an unwarranted ban. If some high-soy snowflake wants to take offense by thinking that it's meant derogatorily that's his/her/furrykind/otherkin's problem, not mine.

Nah. I'm only a couple of years older than you. I just don't believe that I'll make it to 75. My health isn't great and I'm already half blind. Not saying that for sympathy or anything, it just is what it is. We're all going to go sometime. Although, given the way I annoy people IRL I was honestly shocked when I made it to 30.

I hope you're wrong, Hyperstrike. I was hopping to get a chance to play this game before I die in 2030.

Yes there is. Also, I like that you recognize that I am inevitable. 😄

I get why they took out the base beacons for the echo zones, and never had one for Cimerora. That being said they should add a special base item, a time machine or whatever, that allows you to attach just those special time displaced zones. It should also allow you to port to Ouroboros.
