Ironblade

Because the place we all play has rules. I choose to help enforce them. You do as you see fit and I won't judge you about it.

Fixed that for ya. 🙂

It shouldn't be too hard to find. It was super easy back when it first dropped. I grabbed a copy back in April 2019 in case I ever had a use for it. Haven't even decompressed it yet.

It happens. Back on live, I happened to glance at my global friend list and someone in my SG exited the character creator and appeared on the list as 'Diety of Chaos'. I sent them a tell, "Diety?" They replied, "F**K!!!" And the character disappeared. 🙂

I can't agree on this for one simple reason. I have a character with just 225 badges that I created, built, leveled and incarnated (is that a verb?) SPECIFICALLY for the Magisterium iTrial. He's done the Really Hard Way successfully at least a dozen times. He's also got Master badges for several other iTrials. I was focused on getting this character to Tier 4 Incarnate across the board and didn't think about badges along the way. You would be hard-pressed to find a better character to bring along on a Master run, but he doesn't meet your one metric.

Switching servers is just about as easy. There are 3 buttons at the top right of the character screen. They are (from left to right): transfer, rename and delete. When you select transfer, it will detail what gets carried over (like stuff in the auction house) and what does not (like supergroup membership). It warns you that your name might not be available on the destination server. It also says it might take some time for the transfer to take place, but I've never seen it take longer than 1-2 seconds. You have 5 transfer tokens and they are replenished (back up to 5) every 3 days.

I currently have a Logitech mouse, keyboard, webcam and headset. While my girlfriend has a top-of-the-line Corsair keyboard (and loves it), I'm using one of Logitech's cheapest. It cost me $14 (with a mouse) and I love it. I liked it so much, I bought a spare one in case they discontinued the model by the time this one wears out. I build a new system every 3-4 years and this is my third computer using this same keyboard. I'm not using the cheap corded mouse that was packaged with the keyboard. I'm using a cordless laser mouse (M705). I can say one good thing about Razer. I have a corded Razer headset that worked great for many years (and still does) and it was fine when I lived in a studio apartment so small that the cord allowed me to walk from the computer to the kitchen. When I got a bigger place, I got a wireless headset (Logitech G930). I've had it just over 7 years and had to replace the ear pads, which are easy enough to find online and replace.

For me, it's situational. Sometimes I'm doing a TF because it's the weekly and I want those merits or because I need the badge for TF Commander. In those cases, I want it done as fast as possible. Although I still set every TF after Synapse to at least +1 to keep it from being boring. Sometimes, I'm doing the TF just to do the TF. Last night, I did the Renault SF with my girlfriend and one of her friends. I didn't ask but, looking at the enemies, I think we were running at +1 or +2 and team size of about 6. We cleared every map except the outdoor one with Banished Pantheon where you're looking for Gharbu.

Oh. Well, it was easy enough to log in and check the combat monitor. 36 hp/sec without Dull Pain and 55 hp/sec with Dull Pain.

🙄 Work?

I feel for you. I just checked my characters and, out of 18, just ONE does not have Teleport Target (a brute). All but three of my characters (and tanks who don't need it) have stealth capability. Everyone has Assemble The Team, Mission Teleporter and Team Transporter.

When I'm on an MSR with my dark defender, I am absolutely running Shadowfall. People can tell me all they want to turn it off. Not happening.

I gave the regen as a percentage, so it's the same whether or not Dull Pain is running. The build only has 9% extra hit points since I was jumping through a lot of hoops to get that regen.

Well, I have it on one tank and I have it 6-slotted because I needed it to mule 2 Numina pieces and 2 Miracle pieces. Since I already had all that heal enhancement, I put in two interrupt reduction so I can fire it off in combat. Overall, it's a weird build. It's an invuln tank with about +340% regen. Pretty effective.

I like Earth. My Earth/Radiation controller has 4 holds and perma-Hasten.

You're conflating quite a few things here. This part is simply not true. It may be YOUR IMPRESSION, but it is not an accurate one. Now this is a different issue. I NEVER do radio missions with a team and RARELY do them solo. I don't like them. They're simple filler content. I think a lot of people feel the same way, but I'm just guessing on that. And now it's an indictment of the entire world. At this point, you're just being silly.

Well, you can't have it. The name field will only allow "Bland Basic Costume ". 😛

Stack more holds. That's the only way. Note that the Domination power (Dominator inherent) doubles your magnitude. Get enough global recharge to have Perma-Hasten and you're on your way.

I don't recall, but I asked her and she said it was forty-something minutes.

I didn't say it was. But you said "merely being on the same IP address was enough to get a GM response." Which is CLEARLY not the situation here.

No, the poster said very plainly that they were AFK. So the actual situation appeared to be two accounts on the same IP address with one account being completely inactive for an unknown period of time.

Ideally, I think you'd want a damage dealer who can hold aggro and a strong debuffer. That's where I'd go if I were picking a duo for the task. Having said that, it's REALLY not hard. I duoed MoITF (successfully) with my BS/regen scrapper and my girlfriend's peacebringer.

Once I get past Synapse, I run everything at +1 because the low level content is pretty easy and most people will be level-shifted for the high level content. The only exception is the Katie Hannon TF because that one cranks up the AV already.

My girlfriend and I built new systems in November and did not get optical drives for them. I downloaded Win10 on my previous system and put it on a USB drive for installation.

I find them super useful with just a one-tine effort. I have a default list of keybinds that I load for every character when I create them. One of the keybinds tries to access various bases - my own if I'm on Everlasting or a travel hub if I'm on Indomitable or Excelsior. I just string together the commands to enter all three and the relevant one will activate - with a single key press.
