I wake up my dogs with some foul language.

I use this macro: /macro boss quit$$dialogyes This way, your character may still be standing there looking pretty for half a minute, but at least you don't have to be watching.

I always thought nerfing phase was a blunt instrument. I would have simply turned off XP and inf gain while phased. C'mon, give the ol' Astral Plane a break!

Don't forget the pony!

I was not prepared to give this show any slack at all. I didn't like Peacemaker in The Suicide Squad, and I never liked the modern ski-masked Adrian Chase Vigilante. ( I like the Golden Age version, and the DCAU character voiced by Nathan Fillion was a treat!) I mean Alan freaking Moore wrote a comic featuring him, and I still wouldn't piss on him if he was on fire. Plus, the trailer made it look like they were trying for a Deadpool expy with Vig. Then I saw the first 5 minutes of the first episode. Especially the opening credits music video. OK, James Gunn, you are officially my hero now. It was hysterically funny. to the point where my dogs all came to me to see what was wrong with Daddy. I won;t spoil anything more, but... If you were planning on skipping it? Don't.

It is purely satisfying to surround a foe with Trip Mine while they are busy monologing. Just when they get to the "And now, you die!" part, they blow the hell up! I'm thinking particularly of some of the middle "Who Will Die??!!" missions.*

LRM rocket I will need to see in action to judge. (Or rename it "Imaginary Rocket" and add some Psi damage!) Team Teleport, except for the hilarity of seeing Null-phobic teammates freak out, is eclipsed by other TP powers. "Stoppable," the T9 Tank Inv power, is basically a delayed "I lose" button. Personally, I'm no fan of any power that requires you to fondle the corpses of dead teammates or enemies, but they can be extremely useful in better hands.

wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwaddssssawwwwwwwwwd\ Also, hitting backspace instead of enter and sending a special message to some rando who messaged me hours ago... TMI, sorry, guys!

Ill+Storm is a hard combo to beat. Whatever the situation, you can always be doing something useful!

First toon, first time. I'm dutifully destroying ALL the bad guys between the old mission and the new one, because... "Look, they're stealing that nice lady's purse!" My friend took me aside and explained the respawn mechanic. Cue Don Quixote moment. Finish new mish, return to town to see they still haven't gotten her purse away from her! "Windmills, indeed!"

Sounds like you may be running in software rendering mode. Try to find a driver from your OEM or NVidia itself that specifically supports OpenGL. Many manufacturers don't bother to look out for OpenGL.

It's a wiki, Clave! You're well-spoken; edit away!

FWIW, the new devs have spawned gigantic clone of PCs in GM-led events. My character nearly plotzed when confronted with an "Infinite Vulcan"-sized version of himself! No, I didn't get a screenie, dammit! Oh, wait, I did! Just not a good one.

FTFY

Likewise, and very much agreed! There is more than one excellent reason for superheroes to have a secret identity!

I'd also advise substituting a font that distinguishes between uppercase i, lowercase L, and numeral one. (Yeah, I was the guy on Live who annoyed the "parallel illusion" supergroup by successfully distinguishing between its members.)

Sounds like /powexeclocation and I need to spend some quality time together! And I can't believe I forgot to mention the entire shift of focus from "gimme da moneys" to "let's have fun!"

Phantom Army Customization Market Revamp QoL in general; it's no longer painful to play my favorite game!

Among its many virtues, Offense Amplifier includes a +15% Recharge Bonus. The Base Empowerment Station Increase Attack Speed buff is +20%. Together, that's half a Hasten's worth of speed-up. Just the thing for characters who can't quite reach a recharge goal.

Thanks a million, Zhym! I was looking for clues in the dialog, not an actual, clickable clue! (No idea why... I have played this game before.) A much more satisfying conclusion to the arc! And, yes, top ratings for best flashback surprise!

FWIW, I'm probably being an idiot. Yesterday and today I played this arc through solo (on a controller, no less!) I didn't notice any difference. Both times were through Ouro Flashback, same character. I had done this once before, but I couldn't be sure it had been on the same character, so I put it down to incipient old-timer's disease and forgot about it (that part was easy!). What am I doing wrong?

Can't speak to the latter, but symptoms include playing this game... (A symptom I also present!) As far as the former: I watch youtube at 1.25% speed, and with ublock origin installed. That would have saved you 7 minutes or so. It adds up. Incidentally, the youtube algorithm rewards narcissism and drama over informative, well researched objectivity. Compare the subscriber numbers of the admirable Project Farm to those of more dramatic review channels. Don't blame the folks who are pressing the buttons that give rewards, blame the folks who designed the Skinner box that is youtube!

I followed PG for a while when I first became aware of HC. He provided some good information, but it was accompanied by a lot of fluff. I wandered off and don't miss it. However, if you are going to style yourself as "Positive Gamer," you should for Hami's sake hold yourself to a higher standard of gracious play! As my grandmother used to say, "Don't wrassle pigs! You wind up covered in muck, and the pig only enjoys it." Happy Hogswatch, and a better 2022 to all!

Illusion/Storm/Mace (for the force field) has been an absolute blast to play. In any situation, there is always a button to press -- a huge plus for me -- and much chaos ensues!
