  1. No, they were very clear about this. On August 8, 2019, Jimmy said: "The primary reason for setting up the LLC was actually tax protection. An LLC can spend money on server costs and write it off as an expense, essentially ending a financial period with zero income. An individual cannot do this, they would be taxed on the income before being able to spend it on server costs." And on September 3rd, he said: "What we can say is that setting this up as a non-profit is complicated, if it's even going to be possible at all. There's no precedent for what we're doing here, so we (and the attorneys we're working with) are kinda going to be writing the book on it. Essentially, this is less of a "wait and see, trust us" and more of a "when we're confident in a plan then we'll talk about it".
  2. Right. I was reading about the NY City court system where they have held less than 10 trials in a time span that they would normally have hundreds. I also know some lawyers and those that don't do criminal law or litigation are pretty much unaffected. Eh, not so much. As I recall, one of the factors mentioned was getting non-profit organization status. Now that means everything is proceeding at the speed of GOVERNMENT (specifically, the IRS). So we should expect this to take about five minutes less than eternity.
  3. Standing in Steel Canyon, on the other side of the big statue from Positron, talking on a cell phone, while standing next to a pay phone.
  4. Also useful for 'erasing' binds. With one keypress, I load about 20 binds onto my numeric keypad for running the Abandoned Sewer Trial. When I'm done, one keypress loads a new bindfile that assigns NOP to every one of those keys.
  5. Sounds fun. I have a rad/rad tank. You'll want the Fighting pool for Tough. Aside from that.... I dunno. Radiation armor is a really good set.
  6. Most people? No. But there will always be some. Personally, I always take Taunt, even on the tanks I build for soloing. It's unique to tanks and a defining power. And, since you were thinking about taking Acrobatics anyway...... Oh, hell no. I have Hasten on two characters - one is a stone tank and one so I could get perma Accelerate Metabolism. I plan to take it on a third character at level 49 since he is built specifically for maximum DPS in the Magisterium incarnate trial. Even back when the game was live, I only had Hasten on about 4 characters out of just over 40. um, not a clue since I don't use Mids. Having said that, I had a dark/dark tank before Incarnate powers existed and you can easily manage the endurance situation by partly focusing on +recovery IO set bonuses. Dunno, but the way I did my calculations, my dark/dark tank had +48% recovery bonus. That is not counting Stamina or the slotting in it, but it did count Physical Perfection and IO's. Enhancements and there are many options. On a tank, you'll probably want two of them for 8 pts of KNB protection. Any other AT can get away with 4 pts. Oops, back to Mids. Can't help ya there.
  7. He said he wants her WINTER EVENT costume - i.e. the Santa version she is wearing in the Winter zone.
  8. In all of your posts addressing this, you seem to forget the existence of the Ouroboros Portal, which has a cooldown of FIVE minutes. Due to the shorter cooldown, that's usually MY first choice when I need to go somewhere.
  9. Kind of. I went to test this today. They fixed the places that used to work, apparently by removing the doors on the buildings. However, I found another spot that worked but there's no point now. It used to be the only way to get into the 'matrix room' but you can just walk in from the arena now. Also, when I did the /stuck command from under the arena, it put me all the way upstairs in by the terminals instead of in the matrix room.
  10. It's in the big lake. There are a few doors around the edge of the lake. One is the hidden base while the others are mission doors (and normally inaccessible).
  11. Your forum name and password are different from your game name and password. At the top of the forums is a menu item called Account Center. You need to go there and create a game account.
  12. Pretty much everyone is useful. In fact, for Hamidon raids, you need ranged damage, melee damage, holds and tanks. So a variety is very helpful. I've taken almost every archetype to 50 and they're all good. The only one I haven't done yet is Sentinel since it's new and I've been busy recreating characters I had back on live. I don't know anywhere you can find all that information compiled but, to be honest, that's probably because it would not be that helpful. Most sets are a 'defense set' or a 'resist set' or a 'regen set'. There are some that cross over; Invulnerability is considered a 'blend set' (resistance and defense). And most armors will have different stats vs smashing / fire / energy / psi / etc damage so it would be very hard to compile the stats in a legible format. Decide what you're going to do with the brute and that will narrow down the options for you. Do you plan to farm? Do you mostly play solo or on large teams? Are you creating this character for end-game content? And I wouldn't use endurance recovery as a factor in a decision since it's super easy to deal with endurance issues (IO set bonuses, incarnate powers, ancillary power pools).
  13. Oh, I used to know some of these. I think Killing Crew became the Freakshow.
  14. That has not been my experience on Everlasting. Even though the 'Zone' base on Everlasting is nowhere near as fancy as the Cosmic Transport base (I play at least a little on all the North America shards), every time I have gone through the base in the past few days I have seen people there.
  15. I would strongly oppose this *UNLESS* the chat system would automatically block the message when it's just a wall of emojis. I play Black Desert Online and that's the new 'cool' thing to do - a line full of emojis repeated multiple times to produce a wall of them. No thanks.
  16. Weird bug. I noticed one of my power icons blinking as if it were about to expire. Except it was the icon for Super Jump, which is a toggle. I saw this after logging in next to the base portal in Kallisti Wharf. I logged out and back in to see if it would happen again but it did not.
  17. Threats are not helpful feedback. They're talking about retaliation - changing how they act toward other players because they can't have what they want.
  18. "Well, because of this change, I will play less and play differently and it's going to hurt everyone around me." Just stop with the silly threats.
  19. Just saw this. I don't recall any mention in the patch notes. I'm guessing the packs being black was a bug and was fixed. Having said that.... Can we PLEASE get an all-black jet pack option?
  20. Yeah, and it goes the other way, too. My dark/archery defender had Recall Friend *AND* TP Foe. Now she has Combat Teleport, which does not fit the character or how I play her. So, I need to respec to dump the Combat Teleport. To be fair, I tried it out and it's a lot of fun and I can see how it would mesh really well with some powersets and play styles - just not this character.
  21. The real difficulty is trying to imagine what some of these office buildings look like on the outside. I was in a Manticore TF yesterday and wondered out loud, "Who the hell designs buildings like this?!?"
  22. To clarify further, yes they characterized it as an exploit a year ago. Also, they were aware of the PvP usage, which is clearly an exploit, a year ago. But, as they have specifically pointed out, they were not aware of the GAME-BREAKING exploit a year ago. It was only discovered recently (October of this year, I believe). So there are actually a whole raft of exploits associated with the command. The ones known early on (PvP, Master badge runs, maybe others) were not considered that serious.
  23. "suggests" Your interpretation differs from the facts laid out in a separate thread.
  24. This was discussed weeks ago, in one of the 'Focused Feedback' threads posted at the time of the start of beta testing.
  25. Now it's my turn to 'respectfully disagree'. They never said that they knew about the exploit a YEAR ago. They specifically said they discovered it when they were working on a replacement power for this issue.
