  1. Enhancement > Power Transfer > Chance to Heal Self: Should be able to stack when slotted in multiple passive powers regardless of server timing Taken from: This has spawned much renewed interest in use of PT proc, since you can use a ton of them now and still get the benefit. If this is related to a non-specific issue with PT, then it likely affects other enhancements of a non-unique nature in the same way, i.e. +end proc.
  2. People complain about everything being easy mode. I wonder how many of those people have tried dedicated redside or praetorian chars, where the content in both of those (endless blind, crits, debuffs, suffering, pain, misery) are part of both of those playthroughs. This is true even in the 40-50s, where seers will wreck you, widows will blind you and make you miserable, banes will placate and crit you, endless end drain and sapping, slows, moar slows, more misery. Quit killing council, fifth, and the rest of the easy pack. Maxed out DA mobs will wreck too.
  3. Procs were de-synced for power transfer, and I have a feeling that affected this as well.
  4. Redside is horribly underpopulated. Always has been, without intervention, probably always will be. Why not set up a weekly event, where ever non-radio, non-paper mish redside gives 2 merits for completion, and double merits for arc completion? It isnt enough to do any sort of crazy unbalancing of the market, but it is (I think) enough to drive people to play, at least during the weekly events...
  5. That was the thing; I don't really know why, but even when CoV was "teh hotness", it was vastly underpopulated compared to blue. It felt something like an obligation to stay, to bolster the spirits of the few that stuck with it as well. I don't particularly like the save-everyone blueside stuff, preferring the much more nuanced going rogue (recent content), but then they screwed the pooch on that one too, making it pretty much an extended, story rich, solo intro mish arc, 😕 The story is so great, that missing it blowing through mishs on teams is something like a sin. 😞 Anything not Hero Found Here seems to either languish, or not be played, and that frankly, is sad.
  6. The Good Place was FANTASTIC. We heard about it from my sort-of little brother, watched an episode or two, then binged the whole damn thing over a few weeks. 1 to 2 episodes a night.
  7. Not really. This is an effective way for NCSoft to do a market read on content they ostensibly own, without having to do market research. Its win win win for them. We are just lucky we get to be guinea pigs.
  8. HAHAHA I played exclusively on redside from the day it was released (have my figs and box and everything from preorder) up until going rogue. On Victory, there just really was no redside at all. People never liked playing it. It was just as lonely then as it is today.
  9. So, the first ever sentinel I have both liked, and found relaxing to play, has been an elec/regen/whatever (do we get patron pools?!?!). Elec will sap them in no time flat, especially opening with nuke + the drain power, allowing me to kill things at whatever slow speed I want. It is super relaxing.

    EM Performance

    OG +EnM works fantastic. But, things just die, and you tend to run at much higher difficulty _because_ everything dies so fast, so the OG stacking doesnt pop up much with the short duration. I have an enm/bio but I cant find it right now...
  11. Very little, if anything at all. I have been around since CoH headstart (replete with my special head start sprint), and for me, this is the journey, not the end, and definitely not the beginning. Considering the massive evolution the game has gone through (and continues to go through), I am more than happy to keep going as it were. Still don't care about the origin. Sure, dumpster herding was fun, but so is fold space. Getting hung up on reminiscence doesn't help you to see what is there (buy it) NAO.
  12. Warwolves are immune to immobs (entirely???) and speedwalk at warp 9 when stunned, or just in general. 😕
  13. Nod flea, thats why i havent respec't it yet. Still pondering on that char. It rocks reasonably hard on teams, depending on difficulty.
  14. I did this as well, but it doesnt fire as much or last as long as I would like 😕
  15. It does indeed work fairly well on teams with some significant immobs/holds; However, by the time the immobs get laid down, half the spawn is dead, and the effect of ignite is minimal at best, especially when you watch it tick down damage in small numbers against +whatevers. 😕
  16. I did the same thing flea did wth his corruptor, but found that even with school of sharks, ignite generally just isn't cutting it. Back to the drawingboard, but still keeping the char! Just without ignite...
  17. Except the vast majority of that content (xp boosters aside) does nothing to empower you, except the 3 very expensive buffs, and you can get that from a base empowerment station... Most if it is travels, prestige attacks, etc etc.
  18. For reference, Hello Kitty was(is?) a term for acid on stamps that were sent to inmates/hospital patients ostensibly to stamp letters to be sent out. Do not ask how I know this. 🙂
  19. Alts? Lots and lots and lots of alts? 😄
  20. Use them in hasten. Why are you selling them? I am sure you have chars with hasten, and a +5/+4 pair gets max uptime on hasten from slotting...
  21. Well, yes and no. I could see something like that driving up desirability to play other squishies in the genpop. People who (like me) flock to mez proof/resist ATs tend to avoid squishies without rock solid ways of living through getting stunned (overwhelming control, domination, faraday cage), and some sort of function like this would be amazing. I certainly would play A LOT more squishies, taking the no-fighting res/def hit, just for having a different sort of fun. More squishies would absolutely take the pool, but then it becomes a legit trade: defense over notgettingstunnedtodeath. Both are equally useful, and some would argue a really well built squishy might not need mezprot at all, by use of the fighting pool.
  22. Yeah, you can instantout of ignite. Freakshow with fly just fly up out of the patch, and continue zapping you.
