You've had it just two rooms?!?!
I've always had the same map. Don't remember the details at the moment, but it always involves lots of stairs and a boat room.
WHY ARE STAIRS SO HARD!!!???!!! YOU ARE BLOODY POLICE OFFICERS!!!!

He must have went up and down that elevator 20 times. Just going down and up, down and up.
This is me every time I run those early Twinshot missions. She, Flambeaux, and Grym have the worst AI follow mechanics...

Well the ambush chance is dropping to 1/4 of current on the next patch, so if you want a crazy ambush fest, do it now.
Interesting. When do you expect the next patch to drop? In other words, how much time do I have to experience the crazy ambush fest as it is?

@The_Warpact, If you do both, do The Graveyard Shift first. The Redside arc is a continuation of the story.

Do you mean crafting the wrong Incarnate Power?

This is really cool. Are there other "I Win" buttons out there? Nothing pops out to me...
Pretty funny that this actually works.

Wait, I thought the highest bid purchased the lowest asking price.

I'm 35. I started in the Summer of '08 when my college roommate introduced me to the game.

a travel power in the "Concealment" power pool, and travel takes precedence over concealment powers? interesting....
do we need more travel powers?!?!? you can stack SJ+CombatJumping+NinjaRun and still more travel powers? more interesting....
what is next step, put travel powers for "presence" or "leadership" power pools ? for all attacks?
and newStealth isn't oldInvisibility, maybe just for stats and not for the look
all this is nonsense, no need to explain more that this is a completely wrong choice
I see that both a "Thumbs up" and "Thumbs down|" reaction were added. Can we get a "Rolls eyes"?

I too try to ensure my NPC allies survive. I find the main difficulty in accomplishing this is the difficulty settings I use. I almost exclusively solo, so there tend to be far too many enemies for the NPC to survive at +X/8. My Tanker is the only one that even comes close due to Taunt and Invincibility. Even then, Ms. Liberty seemed to have a death wish in the Infernal mission during Maria Jenkins' arc.
Her wish ended up being granted...

@America's Angel, perhaps you could elaborate on why you believe /Regen to be the best tanking set.

Greetings!
For the number crunchers in the community: How do you calculate optimal attack chains? From reading the forums, Live as well as HC, I recall some of the following:
- Katana - GD -> GC -> SD -> GC -> Repeat
- Broadsword - Headsplitter -> Hack -> Disembowel -> Hack -> Repeat
- Dark Melee - MG -> Smite -> SL -> Smite -> Repeat
- Claws -> FU -> Focus -> Slash -> Repeat
I am working on some builds with other Melee Primaries, but I am not sure what to shoot for in terms of Recharge. My math skills peaked in High School with Calculus, and that was nearing 20 years ago. I can generally understand formulae. If there is one that I can plug Mids' numbers into, then "Hurray"! If not, I would appreciate insight into how the above attack chains were derived (I would also appreciate correction if the above are not actually optimal).
-
Thanks a lot, @Darkir! I'll ponder over these an let you know if I have any questions.

@Darkir, Thank you! Ice/ is definitely for theme, so I would very much like to keep it. Thank you for taking the time to help!

Good Evening, Folks!
I am working on building my first Corruptor. I do not team much as I prefer to take my time and read all mission dialogue, clues, etc. Hence, my goal is to create a character that can solo well and take on AVs as they are rather than as EBs. My build thus far is softcapped to S/L/E and achieves PermaHasten without use of Incarnates. My Recovery should also be sufficient with Accolades and the regular use of Heat Loss. That said, it feels a bit slapdash, and I am not quite convinced that I will get the most out of it.
This Villain build was built using Mids Reborn 3.0.4.7

Any of you veteran Corruptors out there have some advice to make this guy better? I appreciate any assistance offered.
-
@Miles, are you looking for Enhancement Unslotters (i.e. the piece of Salvage that allows you to remove an enhancement from a given slot), or are you suggesting the creation of something that would allow you to remove a slot from a power without having to use a Respec?

Or, in short, why?
5 hours ago, srmalloy said:One of the things I remember from live was, when running a Blaster, targeting the team's tank to attack their target, which putatively made it less likely for you to pull aggro. The problem was that, in the hail of special effects, you often had no idea what target you were focusing on.
This^
Targeting through another player (e.g. the Tank) can be useful. However, sometimes the "hail of special effects" is such that I and others cannot tell which enemy we are targeting when using this feature. Thus, we sometimes cannot tell whether targeting through another remains useful. Therefore, it would be useful to have a "target of target" window to assist in making that determination.

Accusations of strawman and ad hominem are only relevant if the person you're accusing has agreed to not use them, as if in a formalized debate. There's no "unspoken social contract" demanding all of us use the same rule and techniques to communicate... and to me at least, these accusations come across as trying to bully someone out of the conversation. Maybe that's what you want. Maybe you don't care, and just want to show off how much better you are at communicating by your rules than those who don't. Ultimately, it only seems to make the forums a more unwelcoming and unpleasant place.
Perhaps I am not understanding you correctly. Strawmen and Ad Hominem attacks are logical fallacies. That is to say, they are errors in logic that either undermine their own arguments or are irrelevant to the discussion at hand. If one were to have a conversation/discussion/debate with another person who relies on logical fallacies in support of their position, how can that conversation be fruitful when the other person isn't actually providing a coherent argument? It seems that pointing out errors in logic would be necessary in order for the conversation to progress.
As always, correcting error ought to be done charitably. That said, even if one were to do so uncharitably, the fact remains that logical fallacies are invalid arguments on their face.

Unrelated, but what arc is big robot seige found in thru ouro? I can only ever find him when I encounter him leveling up.
I am not sure if the big robot version of Siege is present in Maria's old arc, but he certainly is not present in her new one. That said, he does appear in one of the non-story missions you can get from Maria. The mission is "Take down the WarWorks". The map is tiny, and you need to beat up Siege and take down seven shield generators.
-
I actually discovered this mission and mechanic several months ago. I completed the original mission via Ouro, but I was pretty drunk and forgot how it ended. The next day, I started it again from Ouro and found the glowie in that first mission. Totally blew my mind! I now run this on all Hero Alignment characters.
I did not know this was an addition from the SCoRE and/or HC team. Bravo, folks!

This will work if placed in Stamina.

For the record: ToT does not appear to function in AP this year. I have not verified, but I would assume Mercy and Nova Praetoria would be the same.
