Add my vote to a Shadow Shard revamp. Extradimensional invaders, giant weird science battleships, Malta and Nemesis collaborators? Yes please.

Save Anti-Matter's reactor and Neutropolis! Intro pop up-"Its up to you KNOW (instead of NOW) to protect the lives of every single citizen that lives in Neutropolis.

It apparently CAN be done, therefor I have to give it a shot 🙂 I'm assuming Preatoria>First Ward>Night Ward, with some street sweeping thrown in if you run out of missions.

It breeds an EXTREMELY cautious playstyle 🙂 And my plan is to make it generational. When "Guy McNormal" finally meets his demise, his son "Guy McNormal II" will take up his mantle, with a different AT and power set.

These are my current "project" characters- 1) Iron Man mode-only powers that are real world based (gadgets/weapons/skills etc. Crafting and slotting drops only. No rez, dead is dead. No P2W or temp powers, unless they drop as mission rewards. Currently parked at level 9, because I'm terrified to play him 🙂 2) Stalker leveling through all the tip and alignment missions. 3) Stalker leveling through the 'Good Missions" guide 4) Corrupter leveling through only Goldside content 5) Corrupter leveling through only TFs (and eventually SFs), trying to do every TF/Trial in the game (I have a spreadsheet and everything 🙂 ) 6) Alt to be named later to run through the "Bad Missions" guide. 7) Alt to be named later to level to 50 only doing AE story missions

I'm sure someone will tell me why I'm terribly wrong, but how about making increased aggro cap a set bonus for a Taunt set? That way, it would be something a tank had to build for, and make sacrifices in other areas.

Not to pile on, but as soon as they announced the change, I spent maybe 45 minutes and built a base with storage and transit portals. I seriously did it over coffee on a Sunday morning. No more emailing items to alts, and I can go wherever I want.

Shard-Everlasting Just got my first "Introduce Contact" from Sanjay, for Willy Starbuck and Mercedes Sheldon. Both are listed in the option box, but only Willie has a description and he is the only the option to select. If I click on Mercedes' picture, she's added to my "Inactive " list.

This isn't direct build advice, but-respec. respec, respec. Yes, that is 3 planned respecs over the life of the character. First in low 20's, then when you unlock your primary T9, and finally when you turn 50 and/or unlock and slot your Alpha. These are less about gaining and losing powers and more about moving enhancement slots "up" in your build, but its also an opportunity to look at your power bar, and see what's performing well and what's underwhelming.

Marcus is doing pretty well solo, so I bet a more debuff based primary would excel.

Daaaaaaamn, we look good 🙂 And now I'm annoyed that I didn't go with Marcus Wallaby MD. I might have to change it,

Yeah, i'm genuinely surprised by how well Marcus is soloing. But worrying about the changes is like being in the SCA and worrying that it isn't realistic because you don't have scurvy.

Was able to get on and solo the good doctor this morning. Dinged level 8, and took Injection as my burner power. Stuck a toe into Perez Park and was promptly crushed, so I'm running Kings Row Skull missions. Tried to do some recruiting and was informed that we are all nuts 🙂 I'll see everyone tonight.

Just finished up teaming with Cerulean Knight 2004, and we made a dent in Kings Row. Sword strokes and heals were flying fast and furious, and many minds were melted by Marcus Wellby's psychic fury 🙂 Level 7, free to roam about Perez Park at will. Hopefully, I'll be able to get on early enough Thursday that we can get a bigger team together. And who's the Stalker in the SG?

Marcus Wellby, MD just dinged level 5! Woot! 2 attacks, 2 heals, and heading to Kings Row. And everything is 2 slotted, so I can at least use enhancement drops. I'll see everybody tonight.

just ran in to Knuckles 2004 in City Hall, we're showing the Council who's boss 🙂

Level 3 like a bullet 🙂 Busting Skuls and breaking hearts. If only I had some squishies to heal...

So, I've been trying to talk myself out of this, but I finally cracked 🙂 I first logged in to Paragon City 2 days after launch, and I think I'm ready to return to those scary, heady days. Marcus Wellby MD, Emp/Psi Defender, just joined the chat channel, and I'm currently working my way through the tutorial. Soon to be available for all your healing, buffing, and brain melting needs.

Same here. I like to occasionally bid a million for a piece of common salvage. Its just a little treat for somebody.

I've been trying to think of more heroic MM sets, and this would make a great one 🙂

So, I'm trying to write a bind that allows me to press and hold the Lshift button to enter "Teleport Mode", with the camera moved to max distance back and all windows toggled off, and then have the camera return to "normal" on release. Is this doable? I heard a rumor on the Help channel that zoomin and zoomout might have that functionality, but I can't get the nomenclature to work.

Not sure if this is a bug or working as intended, but the werewolves in the "Rise of the Vampyri" mission "Arrest Todesca and his men" are literally pelting me with Xmas gifts 🙂

Now that we live in a "Combat Teleport" world, I'm having some issues with keybinding. My standard keyboard set up is to bind the tilde key ( " ` " immediate left of the number keys) to either "target_enemy_near" on ranged toons, and "target_enemy_near$$follow" on melee toons. I'd like to add a "powexec_location target Combat Teleport" to the chain, but I can't seem to get it to work consistently. In a perfect world, it would target the nearest enemy, either activate Combat Teleport if in range, Teleport if not in range, and then follow the target. Any thoughts? I'm not opposed to a rotating bind set up, if that will make it work.

Sounds like a Rad/TW Tanker to me. Or swap the powersets and go Brute, since you can run them blueside these days. And welcome home 🙂 I'm Gourdhead on Excelsior, send me a tell in game, I have a housewarming gift for you.
