  1. Dear Admins: I'm on the Excelsior Server, and I'd like to plan on doing the Clockwork Paladin Event in Kings Row, but I am told it's pretty buggy and we need to ask you folks to set up a special zone to do it in. I honestly feel kind of guilty bugging you about this. So, full disclosure: I have a character who "collects" robot pets (a robots MM who unleashes metal terrorism on an unsuspecting world, blah, blah, blah...), so I use up the five Knights Errant every couple of weeks or so, if not sooner. Is there a regular schedule for this event, or are there plans to fix the bug? Perhaps we could earn the Knight Errant temporary power reward some other way? Anyway, thanks for your time, and for all you do for us! @DASHER
  2. I'm sure this has been said before, but Body Armor desperately needs improving. It's currently the weakest buff of its kind in the Epic set. For those of us who don't care to hop between alignments, it would be nice if it was elevated to be more like a Resistance version of Scorpion's Shield. (LRM could use a bit of tweaking, as well; perhaps make it non-interruptible.) Thanks!
  3. Did you play on Protector server, in a Supergroup called the Guardians? We were Dasher, Pele Winters, Deathrattle, Infuego, Fire Salamander, Flamestrike, Nuclear Nut, Traveller. Nature Lord, Kiley and several others.
  4. I'm looking for a list of all the NPCs who spawn for Heroes and Villains when using the four different "Signature Summon" temporary powers one can buy from the Pay To Win vendor. I know they are Melee, Ranged, Support and Tank, but I don't know who shows up for Heroes and who shows up for villains. I'm playing two Robots Masterminds, one Hero and one Villain, and I'm hoping Siege/Citadel and/or Nightstar/Luminary are among the Signature Summonables to add to my crew. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!
  5. I see a real problem with this as it further weakens Scrappers, especially as compared to Stalkers. With this change, my main, a Level 50 Scrapper, loses his Alpha Strike Single Target to a Cone; even if it does the same amount of damage, re-classifying it as a PBAoE means that, while my main is able to slot Hecatomb here and Armageddon in Dragon's Tail, any other Scrapper I get to 50 will only have Armageddon in one or the other. That's my practical objection to another loss of potential to Scrappers; Stalkers have been improved to the point where Scrappers are already taking a backseat, and MA Stalkers will still be able to slot Hecatomb and Armageddon, making Stalkers (once again) that much better and Scrappers that much weaker. And promising that my character who already has it won't be changed isn't the point; I'm not one of those "I got mine, screw everybody else" people, and I have more Scrappers in the pipeline. At this point, my only option is to spend everything on Buying Hecatombs and power-level my nascent Scrappers to 50. In conclusion: Eagle's Claw is not broken, Please do not "fix" it. Please don't do this.
  6. The GUARDIANS are calling out to you! We are on Excelsior Server, and you can reach us through @DASHER. If you see this, please get in touch; almost the whole gang is back! Dasher Pele Winters Gothic Athena Fire Salamander Dreameater Ice Nymph
  7. Is there a way to place an AV - or anything else, for that matter - in a specific location on a map, beyond just "Any, Front, Middle or Back"? I'm trying to get a cultist summoning stuff on the rooftop of President Marchand's offices, and I can't get the Big Bad to spawn above the second floor. Thanks in advance!
  8. I just used the Loyalists as Non-Combat captives and settled for no crowds, at least for now. At least it provided variety in them which I didn't have to craft on a per-unit basis, so that was very helpful, thanks!
  9. Sorry if the answer to this is obvious or well-known, but... How do I populate a mission with lots of non-combatant Persons, like a dance rave or a museum gala? Thanks in advance!
  10. I'm delighted to throw my hat in the ring: Global: @DASHER Supergroup: The League Against Nemesis Base Passcode: LEAGUE-11865 Status: FINISHED The base is for a Steampunk-themed SG whose members are dedicated to opposing Lord Nemesis throughout the time stream. As such, it incorporates elements of both technology and magic, and is open to any alignment. Originally established in the Victorian Era, the League's base design is meant to evoke a private London club. It has a small trophy area with a large cage, currently holding a wrecked Warhulk, which is reserved for a suit of Lord Nemesis' armor, if not the man, himself. All amenities are available and all zones with teleport beacons are accessible. The entry holds a memorial to those members who have fallen in the battle against Nemesis. The "address" over the entry - 28125 - is the number of the AE adventure "All Forever in a Day" which introduces players to the League and invites them to join. The souvenir from that adventure is a key with the base entry code "LEAGUE-11865" engraved on it. Rooms and amenities are labelled by symbols rather than names to communicate their purpose to all cultures and species without using a specific language. Skylight views reveal transport vehicles and technological details. After much work, it was described by one member as feeling "cozy", at which point I knew it was FINISHED.
  11. I really wish it were possible to move bases to different servers, or even duplicate them there in a single operation. It would help free up the congestion on Excelsior by allowing players to migrate if they found they preferred a roleplaying or PvP experience, but don't want to have to re-build vast, intricate bases. And to those who have dismissed my desire with the throwaway line "When you move, your house doesn't move with you", that one doesn't provide much comfort when you have over five SGs in coalition, and their bases consist of an extra-dimensional London club, a Trident ballistic missile submarine, two Zeppelins and a flying saucer. Oh, and in real life, I had a mobile home for a year! Just sayin'. 🙂
  12. A way to make walls transparent, so windows or "viewscreens" look outside. Otherwise we have to move up above the base and build in the "ether". That's hard. 🙂
  13. You are going to hate me for this, but I labored over that, too, until I realized I needed to rotate it like a second hand on a clock. I'm serious, it was weeks before I figured that out. Imma go stand in the corner, now.
  14. I think one thing we all have to accept is that "roleplaying" is a term each of us defines for themselves. I play every one of my characters "in character", even falling back on my years in voice over, and my teammates (usually) enjoy it, though sometimes it even creeps out my wife how villainous my villains can be ('It's just acting, honey"... "Well stop being so good at it!" -- best review I ever got!). But I don't mind breaking character now and then and we're generally pretty casual about it. That said, I would like to ask: Which of the new Homecoming servers is the most dedicated to roleplaying? Is that "Everlasting"? Because I asked over there and got conflicting answers. I enjoy the server I'm on now and have great friends there, but I am looking for a slightly more "character immersive" experience. For example, I'd like to find or start a couple of themed SGs (standard uniforms, common SG background, etc.), like the one we had Back in the Days of Live, (Paragon City S.W.O.R.D.) but my current server seems more popular with "systems intensive" players. For example, I really enjoy designing AE missions, but nobody on my current server wants to use AE for anything but farming. Am I just dreaming, or is there a server/community in Homecoming that might find ideas like that interesting? Thanks in advance!
  15. I still play Villains and Vigilantes (second edition) and I still love it. Virtually all of my CoH characters are based on characters I made for V&V, which in turn were based on comics I wrote, drew and published independently back in the 1980's. Bringing my V&V characters to life in CoH has been one of my greatest hobby joys.
  16. Thank you so much for this! VERY much appreciated!
  17. Hello, all. I'm just trying to learn how to transfer my build from here to Mids. Where do I access the info on my character to do that? I assume I use the "choose files" link, below, but where to, then? Thanks for your patience!
  18. "Dependable" This badge used to drop when you got 4 reward "tokens". Are those the same as Reward Merits, or should I be looking for something else Or has this badge been eliminated?
  19. Hi, all: I installed Tequila on a gaming laptop running Windows 10 (despite specifically asking for 7, but that's another story) and downloaded all the files for the game. Now, every time I try to start the game, as soon as the "Loading" bar disappears, the CoH icon in the taskbar goes, too, and the game fails to load. I have re-validated the files multiple times. I have whitelisted the Tequila files in my anti-virus (Avast). I have turned off my anti-virus, and opened the shields. I have used the alternate manifest line provided above. I have re-validated the files after every one of these. I still cannot get the game to start, and I'd appreciate any help on the matter. Thanks in advance!
