Ouroboros is out-of-sync with the normal time stream/line. The Base teleports can't help you travel through time.

Welcome home to you as well, Ejlertson!

Didn't guess, Doc. After the original post, I created a new character, pulled out the combat attribute window for run speed, and clocked them ... and then immediately closed out the combat attribute window. You know I hate using that thing. Last time I used it we were clocking afterburner (flight pool) speed. That was months ago ... I don't think it was last year... hard to tell...

Uh, Spidey is super unlucky. I am sure the Unluck disad in Champions came from Spider-man. (Pretty obviously the Luck advantage came from James Bond!) Not sure if he is that Amazingly, Spectacularly unlucky as he used to be, but it was obvious how unlucky he was in the older comics and, once Black Cat was around, there was no end to the compounded unluck.

Well, just made a new character and they are the same speed. I guess the animation makes it look slower.

Torchbearer is the 3rd most populated! LFG is very active on Torchbearer. Isn't Indomitable the sortofkindof PVP server? I'm on all so just defending these two rather than throwing rocks, or whatever you might have expected someone to do with them.

No! Wait until you get up on top of the highest building in the City and then step off backwards! The rushing of all the windows going by gets me every time (on that I do this all that often, but still even so....)

Lead teams. Recruit in LFG. Make sure to recruit low level characters. Always keep your teams full. chat it up in in-game text chat and Discord.

It's great. It's live. Come on in and join is! Great as it ever was...honestly, I think it is better now that there are no monetary charges to muddle things up. Welcome home!

Thanks! So weird that these started to show up all of a sudden.

Is it just me, or does it seem that Athletic run is slower than ninja and beast running? The Jump seems to be as high, but running seems slower. Maybe seeing the animation just make my mind think it is slower.

I haven't had time to make any new characters, but I would pretty much run this same route but in reverse for new characters. Spawning under the steps of Lady Liberty, go to the vanguard base, hit the P2W for a rocketboard, carpet, or skiff, hit the top of the globe, inside the city hall, on top city hall, badge near the base portal and then the last two exploration badges in either order. I couldn't set-up for the stance change as I was parking near base portals for the tp charges. In the end, I have far more tp powers than I need. I only really need one to get to base. On teams I've been using [Power:Supergroup Portal] - recharges so fast I don't need to use my dayjob ones Solo I just use [Power:Prestige Travel.Base Transporter] - recharges so fast I don't need to use my dayjob ones Of course on Task forces, I break out the tt, mission teleporter, and Assemble the team. Haven't even used the Long Range TP.

oh, wow. I just keep some influence stored in my email so when any characters need it I can just pull it out of there, but maybe some would say I'm an ebil marketer....

From an alt'ers point-of-view, I do try to retain the kind of ammo that I think the character would use. The ice rounds seem to work best as a default for me as they have a chance of causing a hold. Very short, but a hold nonetheless.

I don't run on teams that run up and instantly destroy every mob so that slows are entirely useless. That kind of team would make any controller or defender useless. Other sets have sleeps. The sleeps are pretty much for when you are running solo or on a team that doesn't use AoEs. Ran my Ice/storm Controller today teamed up with a with a Storm/Water defender. level 42 versus level 49 mob of Snow creatures. We couldn't take them down, but they couldn't take us down either. Hurricaned an elite boss to the ceiling in a Baby New Year mission and kept him pinned and slowed there until he was defeated. Hulk smash? No. Icy goodness. Oh, yeah! Ice is nice!

I like it as it allows you to be able to look and check before activating the power, so maybe the checklist>activate instead of directly going into the power with possibly not knowing what you have unlocked?

When did this Mario Brothers coin start getting stuck over contacts heads? What tha? City of Heroes not "video game" enough? Barrels to smash next?!

Agreed. I think it is a creativity issue or a lack of connection to a character. I have over 70 characters and I pretty much know what I'm getting into when I log them in even if I don't read the power sets that are listed directly underneath of the character on the character log-in screen. I know that sometimes there are people that try to get a name and they try 10-15 times and they are already taken. Not so much of it is that any of those names were bad ideas or obviously they wouldn't be taken. Problem is that they were generic enough to be thought of easily. I mean even Spider-man is The Spectacular Spider-man and Peter Parker The Amazing Spider-man. Sometimes all it takes is that adjective to change that name from one that is already taken to the one on your character.

Oh. On a new character.... ... isn't it easier to just mail yourself influence?

You can now by the Long Range Teleporter from the P2W for 10 million. I'll be running around Atlas to save 10 million myself.

I would have to make a new character to test this, but, if this is doing that I think it is doing, you would actually have to be in-game in the Pocket D for a full hour for it to kick in. This is the first that I have head of this.

You have to gain charges after the update was released by parking at a base portal.

With /macro Auction AH, there is no need to go to Wentworth unless you are working on the Day job. And, speaking of that, the Day Job for Wentworths is no longer a teleporter to get to Wentworths locations.

I don't think the Ice controller has had any changes since at least over a year before the Sunset (and I think quite longer than that). I had at least 2 ice controller 50's back then. I see no problem with the set. I am a team player. Controllers, in general, are not solo-play characters but are meant to augment a team. In saying this, SLOW powers are extremely powerful in conjunction with damage dealing teammates. Add in confusion, knockdown, and debuffs ... I mean wow. The set kicks butt when you are on a team. City of Heroes is designed to be team game. Buffing the set for solo play causes increase team benefit for each additional team member. So increasing something for solo and them multiply it by 7 and see if it still make sense. The controller is for controlling the enemy and this set already excels at that

1 mil Inf or run around Atlas for 5 minutes? I think I'll be running around Atlas for 5 minutes. I only have like 70+<100 characters at this point. (and, yeah, all the ones that I had created before the issue drop I had run around Atlas so that they would unlock it). If the Taxibots return in force, there will be no need for new characters to spend 1 mil to unlock it. The run-around-Atlas will take even far less time.
