I was able to join the 2nd half of this event. Tons of fun!

Looking at this table, it seems like you hit the jackpot with the merits. Thats why you made decent-sized profit. So you got lucky lol If you run this test twice, please let us know.

September events schedule updated. Some other events may be added in as I get more information, but quite a few are up there currently. Also, going to add some sections about if you're interested in running an event or donations (as I've had a couple people request).

Fast forward to August 2020. Catalysts are now 1.8-2m; Boosters are now 1.0m, and ATOs are around 6-7.5m. Brute ATOs; still the same, surprisingly.

Welcome to Everlasting, UncouthJoker/Starbrighter! If you have any questions/help with anything, feel free to reach out, my global is /t @CU Krow

I personally liked the way you run Rikti Monkey Fight Club. You have a set-up that works perfectly with the atmosphere/style of the event. I really enjoyed that event. Some of the best fun I've had in a while 😁I just didn't want to advertise any of your events without your permission! If so, just let me know!

I think this guide is great! And kudos to the topic creator for the solid, sound tips! Just thought I'd add my extra cents in as well, primarily to those who are looking to make money via the market! Between May 2019-January 2020, I've made more than 20 billion inf (no exaggeration), and and I'd say 20% was through game content/running incarnate trials and 80% was made through the market. I ran alot of game events on Everlasting, and people would constantly ask me how I made money that easily. Some even accused me of hacking the game/cheating. None of which are true. And btw, I never earned money via fire farming or manipulating the market (hoarding/selling super high). All profit done via market. From my experience, making lots of money, really fast in the market is more of a "you need money to make money" method. I made 80% of my 20 billion primarily through super/winter packs and purple conversion. But there are certain principles you have to look for in order to do it correctly. One of those is observing the supply/demand numbers. EXAMPLE: When HC first launched, fire farming via brutes was HUGE! Every individual and their grandmother jumped on the firefarming wagon. So naturally firefarming=brutes=lvl 50=Brute purple ATOs. I got a brute to lvl 50, made him entirely empty of enh, and just supplied him with a ton of converters/catalysts. And I would keep converting till I got Brute ATOs. Back then, the demand was HIGH and they were selling nearly 25m per. If I got a super pack containing two ATOs, and converted them to Brutes, It was close to (Put 10m in, sell close to 43-47m inf; make around 40m profit per super hero pack). Each week I would make around 600-800m just through Brute ATOs. Why do I share this? Currently Brute ATOs ratio is LOW, people are not making Brutes as much as they first did when HC came out, so the supply is there, but not the demand. Carefully watch the market, look where the demand is high, find a way to fill the supply; and remember you need money to make money. 2nd method, I used winter packs. At first Winter ATOs were not in high demand, but around Fall 2019, people began noticing them alot more and buying them. Primarily Avalanche enh. Using the same method with the Brute ATOs, I would poor billions into whole bunch of Winter packs, have a lvl 50 blaster (all empty enh, supply him with converters/catalysts), and would just make profit. Winter packs cost 25m each, back in Fall 2019, avalanche would sell about 40m each. So if I got a winter pack with 2 Enh, I could sell those for around 80m (80-25m= 55m profit). Plus, the extra stuff you got in the packs would just be extras for less cash (e.g. boosters). As far as last I checked, Avalanche enh are still in the upper demand, but they sell far less now (around 30m; unsure why). KEY NOTES: Watch supply/demand (if demand is higher than supply, you found potential gold mine), find a cost-efficient way to fill that supply, and you need money to make money. Great thing about the market method vs fire farming, is it would take me about 30ish min to get all my prep work done for converting/catalyst combining and then selling them on market. So to me, its alot faster than the market, and I can usually jump right into game content while simultaneously having my stuff sell on the market. If they ever come out with a new AT, you can best best everybody and their grandma will be pouring cash into those new AT enhancements.

Hello Everlasting, Something that I've been meaning to post for a while, but did not get around to it till now. :} For bout maybe 8 months now, we've had the "Chaos United Channel" (not confused with "Chaos United" channel which someone not associated with us created) up on Everlasting. More-or-less, channel was originally created as a host channel for all CU-related events, but has evolved into more a community-focused channel that we have tried to grow and encourage. Fyi, CU channel is not just for CU players or toons, but open to everybody and anybody! Few Qs and As 1) What type of events are hosted on "Chaos United Channel"? We're not exactly limited to types of events, BUT if you're looking for events primarily trials/incarnates/"Master of" runs, a channel better dedicated to those on the server is Everlasting TFs. CU channel is more geared towards promoting "other category" events, such as the following advertised in the past: -MSR raids -Weeklys/ranging between +0 through +4 difficulty -SG base events (e.g. costume contests/labyrinth runs/RP parties) -PVP tournaments (usually in pvp zones or Arena-style) -Badge runs (patron & accolade) -Rikti Monkey Fight Club -Everlasting costume contests -Hide & Seeks -CoH trivia events -"Test Your Luck events" (to not raise any red flags; we use inf of course, feel free to send me a msg on this if you want more details on what these events entail. Primarily its either "Loot Boxes", "Dice Rolls" or "Coin toss" events) -Rock, Paper, Scissor tournaments -Shadow Shard races -other various events 2) Who usually runs these events? We advertise both events hosted by CU folks and non-CU folks. Again, goal of the channel is just to be a source of promoting community events held on Everlasting. 3) If me and my group have an event that we want to run, and want to include it in this channel/thread, what should I do? If you're part of an SG or an individual that has a creative idea and wants to host an event on the server, feel free to message me in-game @CU Krow, I might ask you a few questions, and then wha-la, it's done! 4) If I want to contribute in other ways (e.g donations, volunteer), how do I do so? Many wonderful players on the server have contributed to events before, even if they themselves desire not to be involved in the events themselves. If that's you, thank you! Several ways to do this 1) Tell me which event you want to contribute to & I will connect you with the event leader, 2) If you know the event leader, unless otherwise specified, I recommend just emailing donations to his/her global email (e.g @Example), and 3) If you want to volunteer, likewise, we can assist linking you to the event leader and hopefully they will reach/respond out to you. Donations can be anonymous, or, I'm actually in the current works of including an "Everlasting Donators" list just as a way of saying thanks to those who contribute to the events in the server. If so, I'll only be including names of those who donate 10m+ (sorry, not including 1inf donations). Once I'm done creating the list, it'll be on the 2nd post of this thread. 5) Any requirements or rules to joining the channel? No specific requirements needed. As for conduct, channel follows HC standards of conduct/communication/rules, etc. We try to keep channel updated with events as much as possible. If you'd like to join the channel or have an event you'd like to list, again please feel free to message me in-game at @CU Krow.

I love this event idea :} Shame I haven't attended one yet! I can add this to the CU Channel motd to help spread the word around; we use it to help spread fun server events!

Was able to pop in for a few and poke around. Nicely built base, Tess!

I did not see this anywhere, or with a quick search (unless I wasn't typing in right search words). PVP bug----in RV specifically, I noticed sometimes a player cannot attack another player despite red/blue positions. Tried this variety of alignment (hero vs villain, vigilante vs rogue, hero vs rogue, villain vs vigilante, etc). Bug may still occur at times. Only way I have witnessed this bug temporarily fixed is via re-logging toon.

I vote yes.

Since this thread is leaning more towards the "Bring old LRSF, but in Ouroboros." Long as the proposition sticks in that direction, I'm more willing to change my previous vote to yes.

Ok Riot, I cede up my position from flavor text. You made a convincing argument/response in regards to that position. However, I still do not agree with your overall position on power customization to the degree that you're stating. I just played a toon of mine who has Stealth for the added DEF, and I could see him entirely, no problem! No straining of eyes. Heck, I barely knew he was even in Stealth. For powers like Invisibility, I do not believe this should be an option. If you're going to do that for invisibility, then you mind as well do it for Granite Armor or even Kheldian powers.

Let's look at the Stealth power: Stealth """"You blend into your environment and can only be seen at very close range. Even if discovered, you are hard to see and have a bonus to Defense from all attacks. If, however, you attack while using this power, you will be discovered and will lose your Stealth and some of your Defense bonus. While Stealthy, your movement is Slowed. Stealth will not work with any other form of Concealment power such as Shadow Fall or Steamy Mist. Very low Endurance cost."""" There is NOTHING in the description of this power that promotes mind-manipulation, psych-altering, etc. It even says "You are hard to see, unless as close range." Sounds to me like you just want a completely different power. If that's the case, petition to the Devs for a new stealth ability that says something like "While this ability is on, surrounding enemies are blinded to your presence. within a X amount of radius, making it appear as if you are invisible, even though you're not." Heck, I might even be on board with that, but the whole "I want to be visible while invisible power is on" is just silly to me. My vote is still no.

How is Statesman a vile rapist of a god? Or are you making up some random info. I vote no. Leave things as they are with storyline content. Bringing Statesman is going to open up a can of worms that I advocate that the Devs shouldn't stress about.

Bluntly, I think its a silly idea.

Ok, basically this thread can be summed up in as " I want visible invisibility during my costume maker/tailor options." My main is a stalker and least half of my toons use stealth. Even such, my vote is no.

lol, you got a little chuckle out of me. Not enough for a yes tho 😛

I think it'd be helpful to look at the current two popular Endmod sets+Bonuses. PERFORMANCE SHIFTER Performance Shifter: Endurance Modification, Performance Shifter: Endurance Modification/Recharge, Performance Shifter: Endurance Modification/Recharge/Accuracy, Performance Shifter: Recharge/Accuracy, Performance Shifter: Endurance Modification/Accuracy, and Performance Shifter: Chance for +Endurance .-PROC Only one of each of these types of enhancements may be slotted per power. The following set bonuses apply when slotting more than one of the enhancements in this set into a single power: Two enhancements improves your Movement by 5%. Three enhancements increases maximum Health by 1.88%. Four enhancements increases Recovery by 2.5%. Five enhancements improves the Damage of all your powers by 2.5%. Six enhancements increases Area Effect Defense by 3.13%. Six enhancements increases Fire and Cold Defense by 1.565%. ------------------ EFFICACY ADAPTOR Efficacy Adaptor: Endurance Modification, Efficacy Adaptor: Endurance Modification/Recharge, Efficacy Adaptor: Endurance Modification/Recharge/Accuracy, Efficacy Adaptor: Recharge/Accuracy, Efficacy Adaptor: Endurance Modification/Accuracy, and Efficacy Adaptor: Endurance Modification/Endurance Reduction. Only one of each of these types of enhancements may be slotted per power. The following set bonuses apply when slotting more than one of the enhancements in this set into a single power: Two enhancements increases maximum Health by 1.13%. Three enhancements increases Recovery by 1.5%. Four enhancements improves your Regeneration by 10%. Five enhancements improves the Damage of all your powers by 2.5%. Six enhancements improves the Recharge of all your powers by 5%. ---------------------------------------------- Based off the info above, one could argue that the devs felt it needed that the endmod sets would best be partnered with recharge/acc combos, rather than any other combat attribute. Interesting enough, in BOTH sets, they felt the need to add damage as a possible set bonus if 5 of one set were added to one power. So here's my questions for the OP: 1) I understand the lack of procs in regards to damage, but how come a damage proc would have to be added to an endmod set? Why not an accuracy set/res/def/debuff set? 2) Let's say consideration for damage among endmod sets were implemented, how would this balance out for ATs such as stalkers/scrappers/brutes where damage is already considered high and this could possibly eliminate the need for Musculature Alpha slot? 3) You mention electric powers specifically, but you're suggesting endmod/damage together as a set which would affect many ATs and powers. How would you propose that be balanced out? 4) Would endmod/damage be better proposed for certain ATOs rather than general sets?

I'm confused. Are you basically asking for visible invisibility?
