High_Beam

Two pages of commentary and not one weakness to chocolate joke.

life doesn't gives you lemons . . . you stumble across them when you come home from work only to find your spouse has been drinking your really good retirement tequila with her sister in the back yard in a kiddie pool.

High Beam is a Savior-Pragmatist but most of my characters are Savior-Idealists. I have a handful of Ambiguous-Pragmatists and a few Destructive-Idealists/Pragmatists. I do not subscribe to Nihilism as a principal in game or in life; everything matters in some fashion.

You had me at Kevin Bacon.

I am kind of punched out with Sony Spiderman. I liked No Way Home for the moments, not the whole movie. There was zero reason to kill May and to be blunt stinks of the same type of bungle of One More Day in the comics which is what caused me to punch out there.

Yep that's me as well, except I have a two-button mouse with wheel. But every player in CoH and all of gaming would cry if they knew my movement and combat key positioning.

Quite the Dilemma.

That is a tale right out of a PULP magazine!

I compliment costumes but a good biography, short of long, always elicits far more praise, often cash and other valuable prizes like Rice-A-Roni (the San Francisco Treat).

Looks over at the Pear Tree "Hide the Partridges"

Mercs (1), Demons (2), and Beasts (3). Fun and at times frantic make for enjoyable MM play time for me Bots (4), Ninja (5) and Necro (6) are fine but bored me so they were retired at 50 I effing hate my Thugs (7). Annoy the crap out of me. haven't played that one in years. Going to delete w=once I get off my tail and strip her down.

Yeah I kind of hate most of the shining stars, especially Twinshot (Kiddo). Flambeaux makes me laugh straight up, but she was often one of the surviving heroes over and over again when I was doing Wedding runs. But back to my hate of Twinshot, the worst pathing AI, the worst non-helping helper ever. Ugh. Plus that I effed the neighbors cat grin of hers. I wanna punch he rin the face . . . with a forklift.

I am running a Defender with these sets. I had to make some drop decisions thus Water Jet was dropped because of its inconsistent and underwhelming nature. I also opted out of Hydro Blast, in part because I am getting quality KD from Water Burst and Whitecap and Tide Pool. I also didn't take Shoal Rush because it felt skippable in test and haven't noticed its absence in play (specially with the -DEF of 12.5 that I can fire almost non-stop to keep up (as well as from Dehydrate). I had a theme in mind so I went with Leviathan Mastery for the Coralax summons. But as a Corrupter, the greater damage outlay might make me take Shoal Rush. Its glorious fun to play. I run a Storm Blast?marine Corr, and its awesome fun as well.

His work as a whole has mostly been miss, plus there are certain genre movies that I dislike (boxing, gangster) which puts several of his more respected ones out the conversation as well. He's a capable action star, but he has zero comedy bones.

I run it on a stalker. Crazy too cause yesterday I ran a DiB led by Snarky.

About that. I assume its for value added team support right since the only AoE attack in the build is White Dwarf Flare and Dawn Strike which isn't slotted. Lots of ideas for builds here and I am abel to track it so bonus and thanks to those who poseted up

Also don't be shy about skinny dipping. Its fun unless there are leeches then its not fun.

That jacket! What is that? Velvet!

My absolute favorite is when I call and they tell me to go to the useless web site where i got the number form in the first place and its the only option you have. Like today! Right now. Dealing with my AC warranty people. High Beam is not a Fire Blaster, she likes her AC in the summer.

I never went to the Hollows on live for anything other than when someone was running a Cavern of Transcendence, aka The Death Hole of Player Disconnect Failure.

OMG! On Freedom, the Babes of War ran Costume Contests a lot and those 10 Million influence prizes (which was a lot back then) took for-evah to transfer. I do not miss that.

They ruined the look of the Warriors, so its not all win.

For me CoH was all about timing. I was a new Chief transferring from overseas arriving mid APR. So I missed Beta and the first few weeks but early May one of my Sailors was talking with this Marine about this super hero game and well, I rolled home, stopped at the CompUSA that was right by my place and there it was, sitting there. Bought it, and played until 3 AM, realizing I had to be up in two hours to roll. So I just played until the buzzer buzzed. It was my way of decompressing from a day of Chiefly duties (translated, tedium with occasional bursts of anger action). I made friends in the game and surprised a few of my troops when I would chime in on CoH conversations. It was the only MMO I even played up to that point. When It shut down I was crushed. Now here were are, celebrating an Anniversary in game, not in some forum talking about it in past tense but in the present live, with new stuff. Its glorious really. It makes me feel young.

Martin Henri weeps 🙂 Hard Pass.
