I was runnin my Defender with my wife this afternoon when A box appears on my screen sayin I have received a Character email. (I was hopin it was the merits and emp merits to fix my Blaster that got gutted last Monday). I've bought a Winter Pack or two so I know all about character emails. I just thought it was strange that I get one in the middle of an arc mish. I know there are new rewards being handed out for team stuff but I thought that was for team tf/sf stuff. The arc I am currently runnin is Coleen Nelson - A Path Into Darkness. Anyone think that have an idea, cause I don't. @Etched

You mean I can make my own graffiti and that crap will actually stay in place!? April fools is over a month away, @Dacy. Don't be jokin like that! @Etched

I guess I'm the exception. I simply told them that emailin me out of the blue was rude but in a nice way. I offered them a few wise words on how to accumulate funds that will last and then I emailed them 250 million. In return emailed me back thanking me for my generosity and asked a few questions about game play, recipes, & enhancements. I remember that at one point it was the kindness of others that helped me when I returned to the game. I'm sure everyone remembers those days of startin out on a new game and havin nothing but the toon you made. I did offer and the person I offered it to never replied so over all I lost what I planned to give away anyhow. @Etched

Now that Iss 27 page 7 is out. I'm goin to hunt through all the new base items they added. 😍 @Etched

Wall cracks and smaller rubble piles. Currently I am workin on a base and the theme is a recaptured base that is in ruin. Tryin to work with massively large rubble piles so it don't take up more of the base then the base itself is tricky. The small trash piles within Slums & Waste works but at times they are too small. I could use small letters but that would devour tons of time to place them through out the base. TBH, I know this will never come to be and really I'm just talkin to myself but it's something I'd like to see added in. @Etched

This is incorrect. Once you hit 50 vet lvl 3, it starts dropping 20 emp merits. However, after vet lvl 25 or so (give or take a vet lvl or so) the emp merits drops start to diminish until it only drops 5 pre vet lvl and ends at vet lvl 99. It is a great way to earn the 78 emp merits to purchase the threads for common, uncom, rare, and very rare. But.... One toon cannot generate enough emp merits to completely do all incarnates to T4. This is when DA comes into play. Runnin or farming certain arcs will help fill in some of the incarnate pieces that it takes to finish them. And let's not forget the I-trials. Completion of any of the trials will give an emp merit and a random incarnate piece as a reward. The DA mish doesn't have an 18/20?hr reset timer like the trials do so keep that in mind. @Etched

Play a lot after 50 or run DA arcs. Some of the arcs will drop/offer them as rewards for finishin the arc. Heather Townsend is an pretty easy arc to speed through. The arc reward Is 1 emp merits and a random incarnate salvage. @Etched

When I logged in this mornin I check my game email like I normally do, to my surprise and slight aggravation, there was a new email from blah blah blah. The users name is not important. Anyhow, the email asked nicely if I would donate funds to a new player. Not the same person. I posted recently on another post that I would be happy to help them out since they were new to the game and inf was limited. Sooo. My question is this, how would any of y'all handle this situation? @Etched

That's some BIG NUTS. I would of gone with FF/Ice Defender but Archery works just as well. ☠️ @Etched

If you're goin to go nuts, then go for the big nuts. You have to do it on a defender first. That's big nuts. @Etched

I'd say there are useful attack procs, such as knock back, knock back to knock down, immobilize, or hold. Especially for the ranged type toons. Otherwise I think they're talkin out their butts and relying on damage only to get them through a fight and not skill. When to joust, when to put some space between yourself and the enemy, or when to plow the mob. These are what clear the map. My 2 cents. @Etched

@Cyclone Jack , you can find the Collision Walls in the Editor Helper, the very first category within the item list. You will have to turn it on its axis so it is horizontal. @Etched

There is, you can open the ceilin and build above the main base and then fill in the rooms below completely, erasing the map. You'll still be able to build as the main base has become pretty much a platform. You will have to enable the room clippin to be able to place items on the exterior. @Etched

@Cyclone Jack I walked through your awesome base a little bit ago and it really a awesome base. Great blendin to hide the exterior walls. With that being said I did come across a couple things that you may want to fix. Guests are able to see and jump over part of this section of wall and also make it to outside of the base. You may want to add in a Collision Wall over this room and something to cover this hole. The base is very fluid as you go from one room to the other, which in my book of build is supreme. No hang ups as you traveled and the teleporters were well disguised. One thing I'd like to mention is 0 Grid placement. You had some items, not many but enough for my eye to catch, that were kinda floatin above the ground. Mostly Shrubs and would be an easy fix. With that being said it is an outstandin base. Keep up the great work and I look forward to your next build. 🙃 @Etched

Pay Snarky no mind, he just farted. @Etched

@Cyclone Jack can you post a base code so I can take a walk through it. @Etched

My 2 cents. I've been extremely partial to Senttinals. Blaster meets Scrapper. Slightly less damage then a Blaster and less def/resist then a Scrapper but great to solo with. Fire/Rad is a great starter toon. Also, welcome back. Post your global and I'll email so starter funds. @Etched

I figured out how to snip it. A much clearer pic of of my enhancement screen. Look, i have Tough with not havin Punch or Kick and I have Veng with just havin Assault. @Etched

The game is goin to be down for two hours but in expectin a little linger then that. @Etched

I already posted a ticket while I was logged in. Really hope those like myself that was affected by this get back to norm quickly. @Etched

So I logged on my fire/ninja this mornin to move some enhancements over to my bank and a huge surprise awaited me. Yesterday before the maintenance I ran an Aeon sf with 2 of my friends. This mornin the toon is missing multiple powers from my primary, secondary, pool powers and all of my epics! Not a happy camper right now. I took these on my phone because i don't know how to do a screen shot while in the enhancement screen. @Etched

Everyone of you need help. @Etched

Heh. I got two kids and a wife. Plus I'm a smoker. You win. Yay you. @Etched

Yep. As well as all the others durin Live. However, the only thing you need it for now is the Resurrectors. @Etched

Dacy beat me to it but she is correct. He is a hero attempting to access a villain teleport. Nothing is goin to show up. @Etched
