Monty and Captain Canada are both true boosters on Excelsior. Monty runs the game show so its a fun distraction and to be honest, wants you to win because he often gives you second, third and fifth chances if you are also having fun. I watch the people play his game and some are chatty and get it while others know what's up and just play along for the cash and Monty, well he just drives on, no judgement; a true game show host. Captain Canada is a drive by donations guy in the Canadian-color theme suit not Santa) and a million from him on a starter character even if you have alts you can transfer from makes a difference. He doesn't care if your character is alt number sixty, I've flat out said to him, hey its cool man I have other alts and he was like "I don't care I give to everyone". There is a story with him and his old Super Group which is a little sad but I will leave that to him to tell. Boosters come in all forms in and out of game and those different flavors are why I still love playing CoH because a bad day in Paragon City is still a good day anywhere else.

Rally around the flag as it were. It was why people gave their lives to keep the flag flying in a battle in the old days of war because it acted as not just a positional beacon for the force but a motivator to fight. Flag-Fu Melee Set

I love it and I like the fact that several powers require you to be on the ground. Sometimes thematics matter and being close to the earth makes complete sense. I ran my Rock Blaster Krystala up to 50 extremely fast and had a ton of fun doing it. The animations and the effects are fun and yes, the combos (building up enough seismic to get orange rings) to strengthen other effects actually flow well for me unlike by DB sword swinger and pre-recent issue Beam Sentinel. I have never suffered an inability to mow through enemies at and was the first Blaster I actually upped the difficulty on while leveling because of the survivability (No Set IOs either, not until 50). Love.

The Following Is My Opinion and By No Means the Only Opinion When I was younger and far more likely to lash out "inappropriately" at things I disliked I would have totally been destroying those horrid inflatable pieces of $h1t. If you are going to decorate, then do it for real and stop taking shortcuts. Easy (read lazy) decorating options lead to this whole more is better concept (which is wrong) and conversely cheapen everything. It takes me several hours to do the outside which is comprised of the following: - Three (3) symmetrically aligned fake Christmas trees with lights and balls. - Three (3) Large Christmas Tree Balls (Size of Basketball) with lights spaced evenly around trees. - Three (3) Christmas Presents (milk crates wrapped with weatherproof material and lights) spaced evenly around trees. - Blue Blanket Lights on the Box Shrubbery (2) - One Garland with Lights strung over Garage. - One wreath on house front door. Spouse used to do a Nativity on the the other side of the garage but fallen Catholics are fun in their inconsistent application of faith so we don't do it any more. BUT I AM NOT A GRINCH (Yelling Intentional) My indoor tree is effing fabulous and it takes five hours to do and seven to take down. Its glorious and it makes me tingly in several places just thinking about it.

I watch that specific episode every Thanksgiving day. It's still the best Thanksgiving episode of any show and even though it was totally the seventies it still holds up because of the delivery.

Trailer parks are like that 🙂

True plus the ones you can get as temp powers from mayhem or other missions. I tried once to do that. I had to seek therapy.

I was just trying to be funny. Darn.

I actually move the actual power (or in some cases powers) to a separate tray and have the macro image in the slot I was going to use that way I can see the cooldowns in a central location. This is the case with my Grav/Time where several location AoE's have been tweaked.

I want Grenades. An entire Secondary of Grenades. I don't care if its just Trick Arrow ported over I just want to throw small cans of whoop-a$$ at bad guys. So totally unfair.

Subject line misled me in a different direction. There is always a time and place for a little Britney

Clipping occurring on Pink Skirt option for Praetor Duncan. Ruins immersion and my personal fantasy Role Play. Devs please fix ASAP 🙂

Totally, I have 3 DP Blasters (MC, Atomic and Ninja), a DP/Elec Sent, a Time/DP Defender. They are fun even if they aren't the top dogs for damage and fun is more important to me than 2% more DPS. But there is so much thematic variety to work from there because essentially anyone can learn to shoot a handgun correctly and effectively so if you are a gal or guy who has some super powers but aren't suited for full super power action, grab some guns, learn to shoot them then go. hunt. kill skuls.

Almost all Vigilante but its only for ease of movement through the zones. Alignment only matters to me on specific characters in which I have already defined their theme or story. The Munitions Mistress was a hero who steadily went nutso due to the trauma of the First Rikti War, slipping from Hero to Vigilante then Rogue and finally Villain but the events of the Second Rikti War have caused her to seek redemption and return once more to being the good girl (for the most part). On the other hand, Krystala was once a member of the Circle of Thorns but rebelled and went renegade so she moved form Villain to Vigilante. I think I have maybe one or two pure Hero characters and they are for theme (Blue Aria and Trinity Six) and only one pure Villain which is my Demon Summoning Archduchess of Hell Glasya and that is totally theme (so hot).

It is probably gibberish due to the fact that the insertion of a numeric string only once (97) means its not a substitution system as there would be more numbers.

There is enough farmland in AE 🙂

Thank you for the examples, advice and such in this thread. I had a Widow back on live back in the day that I ran to 50, had no fun running up and then retired immediately. This time on HC in large part because of the information here coupled with my own minor tweaks I had a real fun time running Operative Violet up and want to keep playing her. Bravo Zulu

Totally.

I thought Ouroboros was tied to the dimension so Praetorians being from a different dimensions shouldn't be able to access it but rather their dimensions version (if there is one). The Battalion of our Coming Storm which our Ouroboros is preparing for is not the same Battalion that attacked and were defeated by the Rikti in their dimension and conversely isn't the Battalion in Praetoria Dimension. That said it isn't fair that to participate they have to change to H or V, I am sure some other magical McGuffin could be concieved to explain this sin there is the TUNNEL system.
