necro thread

I'm not a fan of mids, but the latest updates seem to work really well. I mostly use it to look at other peoples builds or save my own build when I'm doing a respec so I don't miss something important. I can't use it to create a build from scratch though. /savebuild or /buildsave (can never remember which way round it is) will make a readable build, plus it's compatible with mids and you can load it in then save it as a mids file

True, most people who are doing low level content are doing it solo so they don't outlevel the content and end up trying to run +4 and still have everything green or grey

If I see a new player asking all the usual questions a newbie does I'll mail them 10 million inf and tell them to pay it forward when they can. At this point it's pocket change for me, but seriously game enhancing for a newbie.

It might have been GM Bot if you said a really naughty word. You might even have hit the post limit where GM Bot thinks you are spamming and have been silenced for 2 minutes. Without more information for context it's hard to tell. If it was a GM we generally chat ban for longer than 2 minutes though, and we usually give multiple warnings beforehand. Plus we log all actions we take against players and I don't see anything in the GM logs.

Can you post it as a mids build?

I'd maybe lose Photon seekers (which aren't as good as I expected) and swap it for something else personally. Slotting-wise I'm not an expert I'm afraid, but if there is a purple set available then I will always pick that over an orange or yellow. Purple Winter sets will help with temperature based attacks, and most attacks have a purple option which will usually give better set bonuses. Plus they can be boosted. Everything else I will get attuned. Not cheap though 🙂 But looking at it again your resistances are mostly above the cap, defences are adequate and it's a very survivable build.

It looks like the spammers are getting more clever. If anyone sees posts advertising anything for sale such as Reddit accounts, software, bitcoins or anything sketchy please report that post so we can look into it . We rely on the users of the forum to report these things as we can't be everywhere and often miss stuff for ages. It might look like a normal post, or it might read weird as if it's written by AI, but it will include a link to buy something at some point. As always, don't click links on posts unless you are really sure where the link is going, and absolutely do not give any information or download something if they ask. If in doubt, report it. We'll investigate and I'd rather ten reported posts that are fine and link to an art page than miss one post and have someones account compromised. Stay safe everyone, GM Crumpet

Basically. Cipher explained it as 2 different databases, the copy is taken from the live server but the forum is using a read-only database which might not be updated

Cipher says it reads off the read-only database for the forum, but the copy is taken from the live server so sometimes there will be a discrepancy depending on the update time of the read-only database

Heels vs Babyface certainly has opinions, and he does go off on a rant with this, but I watched the video originally and he looks like a man who's been slapped in the face with "Agendas" so many times he's had enough. I've not played the game, I don't have the time to devote to playing it enough to give it justice, but he certainly seemed to like it until it got to a weird bit with a female clone of a male NPC. I'm not quite sure why it set him off to the point he was so angry he had to make a video rant, but I suppose he just wants a game where his immersion isn't ruined by the California bubble sensibilities.

I generally buy attuned as I play, and at level 50 use catalysts to turn ATO's and winter sets into the superior versions. The disadvantage is you can't boost them, but the advantage is they work all the way down to their minimum level. Players who only play level 50+ content will often use boosters, but for the rest of us who like to do Ouroboros and lower level TF's it's more useful having them attuned. They all come from the same bucket on the auction house so there is no difference in price.

Most people have several emails they use, so check the ones you normally use for the email

yeah me looking in the wrong place, not you. I'm tired and ready for bed. It's hopefully sorted now

And I've sent a message via the forum. As long as you didn't use a burner email and still have access to the email you used to create the account you should be good to go

nope, still nothing in the database under that global name Edit. I'm an idiot..... Found it.... It helps if you look in the right place 🙂

The closest we can do is send a message to the forum account which generates an email, then you can use the forgot password function to log into the forum, after which going to account management will tell you the login name and you can change the password there as well. Unfortunately that global name doesn't exist.

ouch, expensive!!

I have no idea what those are but they aren't scones. scone Crumpet GM Crumpet

I'd get rid of photon seekers as they aren't what I expected and are pretty "meh" in the general scheme of things, but the set bonuses are useful 🙂

Interesting. More human based than mine is. I tend to default to squid, lobster when I need the heal or the break free, and only use human to nuke, activate light form and inner light and hasten. Light of the World - Peacebringer (Luminous Blast - Luminous Aura)final.mbd

I got a lot of help from Laucianna and have this as an end build which was ridiculously expensive. It probably cost at least double what I would normally spend, but it is worth it. The big problem with khelds as far as I can see is they really do need the benefits of sets and procs as they have almost no natural resistance or defence. Light of the World - Peacebringer (Luminous Blast - Luminous Aura)final.mbd

The devs are fully aware, and they do have a bit of an overhaul of Khelds in the pipeline (which I know nothing of) so are of the opinion at the moment that while there are exploits to make khelds better, they aren't game breaking as such so are fine. There is the proviso of course that at some point, eventually, in the fullness of time etc. it may be fixed and no longer work, but that's for another day and hopefully any changes they make will be better alts in the long run. The devs are of the opinion that if players need to use bugs/exploits to play to their full potential then the AT needs looking at.

Good builds as a starting point, then obviously swap stuff about once you have a feel for the character. I've got my WS where I want it, and my PB is pretty decent using your build as a start, then tweaking for my play style. Without your builds as a starting point I was utterly lost. Laucianna worked with me to maximise my builds to where I have them now, but it would have been a lot harder without yours as a base.

I find turning the particle count down an enormous help, especially in Hami raids and MSR. I drop it to minimum and suddenly I can see everything that's going on
