Ironblade

I believe the default population cap for most zones is 50 and Kings Row is currently set to 20.

You've voluntarily taken it upon yourself to provide a resource for community. This is commendable. No need to apologize for not updating as often as you might think you should. 🙂

Well, if we're rounding to the nearest integer - then zero. I respecced my main character exactly once. Most of my characters never do a respec. I would estimate that I respec about 1 out of 4 characters at some point. The most recent respec I did was due to the devs changing powers around - I had a character with Recall Friend AND Teleport Enemy, which were combined into one power.

Well, my thinking was go big or go home. So I made a sonic/sonic defender. He's currently level 40 and I enjoy playing him on teams or solo.

On the items highlighted red: 1. I think you mean Ryzen. 2. I know, right? What's with all the LEDs? My memory, video card and PSU fan all have LEDs.

I would suggest you also post in the Reunion section of the forums. The odds are that any particular player doesn't visit the forums. However, many of those who are particularly active and/or run events do visit the forums and they might know the people you're looking for.

Definitely. I would conclude that each of these games had one particular 'nerf' that offended him personally. As a result, one of two things is happening: 1) He's spouting BS to badmouth games that 'betrayed' him. 2) His memory of the games is distorted by the singular outrage that ruined it forever.

Points for spelling Olive Oyl correctly, but the villain's name is Bluto. 🙂

And Citadel is always the example. 😛 Back on live, someone was recruiting for a Citadel TF. I wasn't interested and paid no attention to the broadcast. They sent me a tell asking if I wanted to do the Citadel TF. I said, "No thanks." They then proceeded to send a tell informing me that, as a player in an MMO, it was my obligation to team with people.

Well, I could repost one that I took to prove the number of merits you could hold is not 9999 and is, in fact, an even 10,000. This would support my statement about having close to 30,000 merits since I have a third of that just on one character. 🙂

It's all relative. Back in the day, when the game was live, I was teaming with someone and they hit 50 with their first character on Infinity. They said they were going to move some inf over from Freedom to do their build. I asked how much that would be. They said they had a total of 100 million on Freedom, so would bring over about half. I opened a trading window and offered them 100 million inf. They asked, "Are you sure?" "I'm sure. That's 5% of what I have just on this character." Back in the day, I had a spreadsheet of my characters with how much inf each one had. This wasn't so I could get the money when I needed it. It was so I would see which characters had room to hold more. Back then, I farmed PvP recipes, worked the AH, had a fire/kin controller and engaged in pretty much every method to generate funds. Of course, back then, this was the only online game I played. When it shut down, I branched out and now I play a bunch of different games so I don't spend so much time raising pointless amounts of money in this one. My total inf across all characters now is somewhere between 500 and 750 million just from playing. I also have close to 30,000 reward merits so I don't spend inf on a lot of things. "But if you used the merits to get converters and sold those, you would save inf." "Why should I even bother with that extra step when I have tens of thousands of merits?"

Any enhancement provides the enhancement at all levels. A level 50 IO from a set provides exactly the same benefit as a level 50 common IO and scales exactly the same. Only the set bonus will 'cut out' if you exemplar below level 47 (for a level 50 set piece).

Signature Story Arcs are now available in the "Story Arcs" tab of the Looking For Group window Very nice. Not a big deal, to be sure, but a nice addition.

Only two? I have two NOW, that I remade from live. Back then, I had . . . four, I think.

The game will only allow you to use one at a time. You used to need just two. Then the devs fixed the BP Lore pets so now the leaders ask you to bring three. The Banished Pantheon are still the highest DPS Lore pets but they're not broken any more. 1. Run when the game announces the 'crackle'. And don't run back too soon. 2. Stay behind him. His 'beams sweep the area in front of him', or whatever it says, is pretty nasty also. Being melee is not necessarily a problem. I got the badge on my scrapper easily enough. Also, HOPEFULLY the league has multiple people with Kinetics so you need to be close enough for Fulcrum Shift. Standard instructions on Everlasting for Really Hard Way runs (which my girlfriend runs every Saturday): Be at least tier 3 in every incarnate power, tier 4 preferred. For sure, if you're not level 53 GTFO. Bring 3 ultimates. Bring a similar number of tier 4 team reds (don't recall the inspiration name). Bring 3 Impenetrable Imbuement (team orange/purple insp). Some of the team acc/dmg insps would also be nice. Go to the Pay to Win vendor and get at least the one hour damage buff (the other two are nice, but not required). I won't go into the tactics since you said there is already good leadership for the runs. Back in the day, when the game was live, it was REALLY hard. Our standard tactic on Infinity was to start with TWO ENTIRE TEAMS OF CORRUPTERS. This was becuase Tyrant's damage resistance goes up as his HP go down. This was countered by Scourge doing more and more damage as his HP go down. Nowadays, we can do it with no AT requirements. Having said that, if you want to be super helpful for the attempts, make a character specifically for that trial (like I did). I made a beam rifle/kinetics corr and selected every power and every incarnate power with an eye toward that one iTrial.

There's your problem right there. I hate that TF. I run it once per character for the accolade and never again.

hmm.... Was that the bookworm played by Burgess Meredith? Good episode.

Since you're on Reunion, I'm guessing you're in Europe somewhere so the times on other servers may not be convenient for you. Several of the other servers run iTrials every night. Everlasting, for example, has a posted schedule on the TF channel and will be doing DD and TPN tonight. Specifically, Master of Lady Grey, DD, then TPN. Start time is 7:30 EST.

I would go further and say that, if you use a computer for anything more significant than social media, and you don't have a back-up system in place, you're an idiot. I recall an audio recording I heard over 30 years ago. It was a guy whose laptop had suddenly died calling the tech company he had sent it to for repairs. They informed him that the hard drive had failed completely and the data was unrecoverable. The guy lost it, screaming that his doctoral thesis was on that computer and that he had no back-ups. "That's a year of my life", he screamed. You could just tell that the tech guy wanted to reply, "Dude, you were using an antique computer and had zero back-ups. What did you expect?" People make an occasional back-up and have some spare hardware and think they're in good shape. No. Assume that your computer is going to catch fire one day, and possibly also burn the house down. Prepare contingency plans accordingly.

I thought the tv show 'Police Squad' was on par with Airplane. Probably because it had Leslie Nielsen playing the exact same type of character. The 'Naked Gun' movies got a little too slapstick.

That was going to be my reply, also. I had this happen while attempting to reach Cimerora and ended up at Positron. I checked and, oops, forgot to unclick the Posi TF after doing it earlier that day.

I have some feedback regarding the existence of some of these changes, rather than the details of the changes themselves. Page 1 of this issue changed/removed/modified powers such that some existing characters needed to respec. And now you're doing it again. You're rewriting existing powers and I'm going to have to respec multiple characters. It would be great if we could have a moratorium on this type of change for a while, once Issue 27 is done.

Here's a weird one. Someone said the mission for Spelunker (Rescue the Mystic) was not showing up in Ouroboros. I checked and it wasn't there. *BUT* I also checked the Ouro crystal in my base and the mission *IS* listed there. Having said that, someone else had the same thought and checked in their base and it was *NOT* listed for them. So, super weird, kind of random bug. Edit: It gets weirder. Someone tried the Pillar in one of the transport bases and the mission is listed, but when they go to their own base and check the Pillar, it's not listed. I have not yet been able to identify a pattern. Further edit: I just checked in FIVE different bases on one character. The mission shows up in the list in four out of the five and not in Ouroboros.

I would agree this is the best course of action for someone who only has 850 merits. Watch the price to see how much it fluctuates day to day and you'll be able to price them to get as much inf as possible with them selling in 1-2 days. If they insta-sell when you post them, you're letting them go too cheaply. While this is what I do, since I have many thousands of them and can't be bothered with the extra steps of getting the converters, selling on the AH, etc.

On my badge hunter, it's a constant stream of items I can sell on the AH for the selling badges. On all my others, I keep one or two of each and vendor the rest.
