True, but tell that to a pet less mindcontroller. Comparing them to another set where the confuses are either pets or damaging control powers, I'd say that mind loses in the xp department.

Can we do that for pets too then? Anyway, I consider the confused as pets, that's why I think the xp penalty is kinda unfair

What do you mean by adding an -n in the file locations? Do we change the file names? Edit: never mind there are enough images in page 2 to show how it is done. Just a curious ping to the Devs, is this something that is as easily done as it seems?

I know that there was a discussion about this before sunset and tbh i thought that they made a change to it in favour of these powers right now if you confuse mob1 and it hists mob 2 you get less xp from that mob2. now I get that you should get none if your don't damage mob 2 with one of your own powers, because you are avoiding agro. But i think that you should get full xp if you are fighting along side a confused mob, and are doing damage yourself. because of the xp penatly associated with confuse powers, I hear a lot of players say that they don't use the power in the higher levels anymore. I think it's a shame that a power is chosen less because it costs your XP.

Sorry Lynne, I dont agree completely. Thinking in character we see that a lot of superheroes start out with a travel power and learn how to offensively use them later. though with the option to get a travel power at 4 instead of 14 makes the whole point moot

It states I game that it should accept fear sets... A typo or a bug? (and if its a bug, shouldn't it accept immob sets too?) Anyway, just curious....

Sounds like it should work then. I'll try this with teleport...

I remember the purple patch, that was a dumb decision: Before you could hit a purple even +8 but you would do piddly damage. So what we did was double team up as level 10's and seek out and pull a single outcast. Hit it with all we got from 16 players and play high risk high reward. It felt like a mini hamiraid. Then purple patch hit and the - to hit made it so you would never ever hit a purple past +4. And in the low levels even that was impossible. I hated that patch.

Actually not even a bad side effect since your particles - would- get left behind when porting I imagine. I wonder how the regular TP animation works....

Gotcha intrigued didn't I 😉 (if I didn't you would be reading this) With all the customisation in the game I find the option we have for teleport to be falling behind. Would it be technically feasible to use the costumechange emothes as teleport animations? I'd say most all of them are perfect for the job, wether you disappear in a puff of smoke of a murder of crows, all good with me. the animation times might be a hassle, but i think that even with normal tp you can cut the animation short by popping the next one immediatly. the science ones with the bottle and the injection might be wierd, but I'd do those too, just because it is counter intuitive doesn't mean someone can't make a cool backstory out of it ( a teleport injection or potion anyone?) What do you think? Worth trying? technically feasible?

That is hilarious and truly creative!! Glamoure has been born! She is a level 22 dark dark with a new back story and her second costume in place. "Pandora Lacroix was a fashiondesigner at Icon dissatisfied with the world in general. Villains wearing cheap knockoff costumes, always red and black, heroes knocking you off your feet scuffing your new high heels and fights getting in the way of your morning latte. Enough was enough!!! Pandora sought power to rectify matters and found herself in Croatoa based on rumours she picked up in Icon. She was captured by otherwordly creatures and taken to deep caves. There, bargaining for her life she demanded not only her freedom but also the power to defend herself. The captors leered at her from the dark, amused by her brassy demands, and offered her a wish. She should have known better, faerie wishes are never what you expect and there is always a price, even if you don't know you're paying it... The Lamps of Tuatha de Dannan fuel her power, granting her dominion over shadows, dark spirits and even the souls of fallen red caps and Fir Bolg. All creature who wielded the Lamps before... Pandora calls herself Glamoure now and fights the evilly unfashionable, the wearers of polyestre capes and the cliché of the red and black villain." (edited some details in the back story)

You cant trademark a character's look, you can trademark his name. the look falls under the copyright law.

Seems like a fun thing to do, make them slip in than black tar <evil grin>

Update: the video drivers dated 2016 (that I have) are the newest... Anyone have an idea what to do?

I made her a Dark/Dark, called her Glamoure since her original name was taken on the EU server. I really like the combo! I'll post a screeny later today. Thanks for all the help guys and gals

I just installed yesterday and really loved the trip down memory lane. I found that when entering atlas City Hall or a mission door, the game exits to desktop. No messages or anything. I'm playing the 32bit version (old laptop, clean install) on win10. The game does warn that my gfx driver is old (but duh, the laptop is 10 years old). I'll look into that today just to be sure. Anyone have ideas what it could be?

On the business side: -I'd like to keep your current transparancy, community involvement and willingness to listen/work with the community (which is a breath of fresh air) -if a steady, and greater, source of income is needed i'd rather pay for a subscription than for microtransctions (the free to play made me leave the game in the first place) -security from ncsoft being able to pull the plug again. (or anyone else) And on the game side: -improvement of current gfx quality in general -new costume bits (including npc costume parts) -new powers -new story/mission content The business side ones are the most important ones IMO

🤦‍♂️ of course! Thnx!

What do you mean by hit null?

I completely agree with this. Popularity is a poor way to measure balance. For one the arguments above stand, for another some powers are staples because of their functionality. Asking why a set or power is impopulair is valid, but be wary of the easy conclusions...

😳 Oops Though in my defense, the chat bubble doesn't always work?

I'll call her cocktail then 😂

Lol, you're all making this decision soo difficult! I'm actually thinking of dark/dark after reading the proc monster thread (even though I don't fully understand the mechanics of proccing) or maybe dark/storm (though harder to explain thematically) I think I'll leave illu to the wayside in favor of something new.... One week waiting to go!

Something like clicking that chatballon icon to go to the first post writing since you last visited the thread? Only of course If it isn't hella complicated to do of course. Thanks and keep up the good work!

That is good news!
