Good job! Now make that much every day for the next four years and you will get an invitation to the CoH country club.

Make First Ward or Imperial City accessible from Ouro. This would populate those zones a bit and speed up travel, especially since goldside story arcs are TT and mission transporter unfriendly. (talks and contacts rather than mission doors).

A minimal granite Stone/EM is a very potent combo. It can be expensive to make it really shine, but with all of the procs, purples, and careful use of ATOs it can rival Bio/ for damage along with top tier survivability. EM hits very hard single target, but proc'd up whirling hands with 180+ global recharge is respectable AOE as well. Lots of power pool choices depending on the flavor you want, but teleport, leaping, speed, fighting, leadership, and stealth are all good choices. Since the stone revamp I made a 50 of every secondary except KM, katana, and elec paired with stone. My favorites are /fire and /em by far. Everyone knows about stone/fire, but /em is just as good in its own way.

raid Once again asking for an instanced Hamidon Raid
Gerswin replied to Laucianna's topic in Suggestions & Feedback
The much much much bigger issue is the hour wait to start rather than the ability to exclude the nuisances. -
I need to amend this. The game used to run fine on my son's Arc A750. Something in a patch, driver update, or whatever hurt the performance quite a bit. Now the game stutters when zoning, joining a team, or panning the camera too quickly. I will troubleshoot it when I get the chance, but there is clearly a driver/rendering issue of some sort.

I stand on top of the portal with all of my pets summoned and with a max size costume because I am an important person on this server and I do not want to give up my first-in-line-to-the-portal spot to some obnoxious nerd.

Remove This Forum Thumbs Down Reaction
Gerswin replied to Purrfekshawn's topic in Website Suggestions & Feedback
I always interpreted the thumbs down emoji as "The world would be a better place without you polluting it." I guess "I disagree" is a valid interpretation as well. -
I always assumed that some of my PUG teammates were RPing a serious brain injury.

How much in game currency do you have on hand.
Gerswin replied to Monty Haull's topic in General Discussion
For the last month, my 8 year old has had a billion inf/day Super Pack habit that I am able to out-earn just selling DSyncs and HOs. I have no idea what my total net is but I know I have over a million merits across my accounts. -
When you get a few billion inf to play with you can make a monster level 50 human WS build, although I recommend taking the forms for IO muling. Warshades can live at the damage and all resist caps while at defense softcaps while also having teleport pool, a killer self heal/end, a bunch of proccable powers, and triple stacked pets. With incarnates, pretty much all weaknesses can be addressed. Even single target damage can be high if you build for it. Power level varies by situation, but TFs and such are so predictable that you can just choose to exclusively play content that play to WS strengths.

Having options and nuance in character builds is bad design. If there is not a definitive best build and that build is not spelled out in-game for every player, then some players will use their unfair advantages to make toons that are unfairly powerful. Meanwhile, average players that don't feel like doing math, asking for help, reading forums, using reason, or researching a PhD thesis on power damage get pushed to the margins. They call us 'noobs' and 'mouth breathers' and 'rock chewingly stupid' and it hurts. TLDR: nerf procs I

What I wish Arsenal Control looked like
Gerswin replied to Shin Magmus's topic in Suggestions & Feedback
Anyone that wanted to be in closed beta could have done so. The more involved you are earlier the more ability to give feedback you have. -
I have a dark/atomic/soul and it is a very solid combo. It is surprisingly 'controllery' but it unloads PBAOE damage very safely. There is a lot of proc potential and the -tohit is very noticeable. I recommend atomic if you want to skip a bunch of secondary powers. I only take the initial pick, ionize, the toggles, and atom smasher. Cone-Cone-(close to melee)-blackstar-atom smasher is a fantastic combo. Ironically, the toon is mostly played by my 5 year old daughter and it is pink-princess-magic-sparkle themed with sorcery pool for flight and teleport along with speed, leaping and fighting. Definitely not a evil scary darkity theme, but Dark/ and /atomic both have very customizable visuals.
-
If you don't spend enough time in a mission the time gets messed up. This happens to me when I multibox and leave my alt in the base. If a toon gets "participation credit" for every door mission then this doesn't happen. It is possible there is something unusual for that arc, but the phenomena in general is common.

I run 3 accounts very often and here's my $0.02... A sonic/sonic defender is the most passive defender I use for this purpose. Disruprton field on your scrapper and put the tier 1 sonic blast on auto. shields and clarity if needed. Elec affinity/x defenders are less passive but they can stay alive through almost anything and you can choose what power to put on auto to match the situation (heals, end, +dam, or even an attack). They pair well with blappers or offensive prioritized scrappers. Empathy with fort on auto and AB for hard fights is solid but slightly wasted on a scrapper. Pairs better with blaster. A crabbermind (or 2) with -res proc'd venom grenade on auto blows away any defender for this purpose. My em/bio scrap with 2 crabberminds solos Tin Mage in 12 minutes and Aeon in 35 without using temps, boosters ultimate insps etc. YMMV depending on how you use macros, incan, dual monitors, or other multibox aids.

Can someone fill me in on the "rules" of ToT? Is multiboxing ok at the hotel? Afk multiboxing? Is soloing at the hotel permitted? Is it rude to have a team and not invite lowbies who are asking for invites? If you are badge hunting for a certain enemy is it BM to leave without killing the full spawns? Finally, are there any zones where the etiquette is relaxed and you are pretty much free to play as you wish without angering anyone?

New Computer - Any pitfalls to worry about?
Gerswin replied to dmiasek's topic in General Discussion
I would avoid ARM processors. I am not sure what kind of emulator you would need to run CoH but I can imagine it would be quite a pain to make it work. -
Can we change Time Bomb to Remote Detonator?
Gerswin replied to Coffeh's topic in Suggestions & Feedback
You could also make it a destructible object (like oil slick) with a long timer. It is still a time bomb, but if you shoot it then you can control when it detonates. -
I just put an ASrock Intel Arc 750 into my son's PC. I just bought it a few days ago at Newegg for $200 and it has the newest drivers. It runs my usual graphics settings (mostly ultra, a few things changed) at 4K resolution 60 FPS without really heating up higher than 60C after 2 hours. I did not notice any DirectX compatibility errors. I am not sure if it is related to the card or my son's PC in general, but I was experiencing some bugs when using the tailor. Specifically, I could not toggle between skin color and costume item color unless the 'colors linked' button was toggled on. I will continue to troubleshoot this on different PCs to see what triggers the bug. I don't know if this would be DirectX related or not.

Implement more measures to curve market manipulation.
Gerswin replied to crimson72's topic in Suggestions & Feedback
If you could buy/sell converters in stacks of 1000 instead of 10 prices would go down across the board. The biggest bottleneck in the market is how tedious it is to craft and convert and how few people want to spend their evenings clicking and dragging.
