You're better than me. I'd put my lasers on wide beam and clear a path!!

Excellent idea. I think all of us have spent more than we expected on something due to fat fingers and lack of attention. Paying that inf forward is probably the best way as bad actors will come forward and swear it was their inf. And we can't prove them right or wrong.

Unlike commercial game companies with schedules we release when we are ready and not to a deadline. On the one hand it means we are pretty sure the worst bugs are fixed as we don't have an arbitrary deadline (looking at you Cyberpunk 2077), and on the other hand it means we don't have a set release date where we can drum up excitement for the big day. We kind of go "well that's looking good, next Tuesday?" π

Well there's this thing I like, and that thing, and oooo there's that too!! I don't like that though, and that's not quite ready.... So there you go, that's all I know ff the top of my head π

Cute boys maybe π And have you seen My Super Ex Girlfriend?

Under no circumstance should I ever be given super powers. I'd like to think I'd be Superman, the reality is I'd be Homelander. Calm. cool, collected, and then get frustrated and irritated and use power wildly in excess of what any rational person would consider proportionate. Cut me off in traffic and half of California would be a radioactive wasteland. "Oops!! My bad!!"

Willpower is great until you get hit by -regen and suddenly your HP tanks. I've had some hairy moments on my WP tank a few times

Character timeouts and military service.

As others have said, the name thing isn't live yet and there will be plenty of warning before it does go live. Even then it just changes your name from reserved to available, it doesn't wipe it. So in theory someone can snipe in after the time and take it, but in reality unless it's something really popular or obvious the chances of it vanishing are slim. -

But back on topic, The early Admin staff like Cipher, Number Six, Telephone and Jimmy were instrumental to getting us off the ground and running. It was very chaotic in the beginning, and while I don't know who else was involved I do know they spent many sleepless nights getting us off to a good start. -

"No Transformation" option for HEATs
GM Crumpet replied to Vic Raiden's topic in Suggestions & Feedback
Am I missing something? This thread seems to have gone off the rails a while back. Some people have tried to drag it back on topic but I'm getting to the point where I feel like closing it as it's done and going round in circles. -

Still can't get started on Incarnate stuff.
GM Crumpet replied to Zombra's topic in General Discussion
I have to agree with you. Once you know what you are doing then it is, indeed as simple as can be, but for your first one or two characters? It can be very confusing. I was lucky in that I was in an SG at the time (with Goddess Laucianna* before she became the Goddess) who were really helpful. I was all "OK now what?" and they went through it with me in a way I could understand. I still messed up, but that was my fault. *It was so funny, I left the SG after a year to do my own thing and it was only years later when we were chatting that we realised we knew each other from before π -

GM Crumpet replied to Zombra's topic in General Discussion
I have Mender Ramiel pop up as soon as I level up to 50, as well as Officer Nolan in PI to start the Dark Astoria arcs. I agree they can get lost in the list of contacts though. One thing people get confused by is crafting. The Alpha slot doesn't help having two sets of recipes. The top ones are really hard to get components for and are a legacy from live, where you needed multiple notice of the well and could only get one a week. If you scroll to the bottom you'll see simple recipes using threads and Empyrion merits. The creation section is simple enough to use though, click threads to make common and uncommon components and emp merits to make rare and ultra rare. The trick to knowing what to do is knowing where you want to end up. Many incarnate powers plug holes in your build. Do you need more damage? Run out of endurance a lot? die from being mezzed or stunned on a regular basis? There's a power for that. Check out the two tier 4 powers and decide which one you want to finish with. You can't respec incarnate powers so once created you are stuck with it and have to create a new one if you decide something else will be better. Lore is a rather good pet you can summon every ten minutes. some people like the big boys like Banished Pantheon or Longbow, others like the small ones like Polar Lights. I generally go polar lights myself, but some of the human ones can be fun. Judgement is a nuke. Ion jumps between enemies and can be good for very large groups, the others are either a cone, or a AoE. None of them are terrible. Opening slots is as simple as doing content. The alpha slot can be opened quickly doing Mender Ramiel, and he also has a lot of stuff on incarnates and how to create and use them. -
As far as I'm aware, all trials are the same. All you need is to have reached level 50 and hit things, and be in the trial when it ends and you get a pick off the incarnate table. Master of has different objectives, but you just need to be inside and complete it to get a component. now waiting for one of my dear friends to tell me I'm wrong π

I think it depends on your available inf. For me I generally buy procs and sets as I level. I'll get the three blessing of the zephyr into my travel power at level 7 when it becomes available, and prioritise ATO's. Then as I hit the appropriate level got the procs I need for health and stamina. Otherwise I'll SO until 22 then respec and sell them, then go IO 25's and go up as I hit a level change. When I hit 50 I'll use a catalyst on my ATO's to make the superior, along with any winter sets I need, and buy as many purple sets as I can squeeze in. I buy everything attuned anyway π I can follow mids when someone else has made a build, I can't create a build from scratch. So generally my powers either have full sets of something or are stacked with useful procs.
