I'm not triggered at all. I'm simply capable of understanding that it is YOUR biased opinion that labels the activity "toxic." I don't find it toxic at all. Inf is not real money. Fact. Time is not money. Also fact. Get over it.

I'm currently rocking 32.47 hp/sec on my claws/sr brute. Have you seen @Caulderone's SR tank build? It's sitting on like 45% damres to everything BEFORE the scaling resists kick in. This is not true. Why everyone ignores the scaling damres in the passives... I just don't get. It exists. It functions... it keeps me from faceplanting when I'm in the red more often than I can explain.

I have 12 sounds silenced at the moment. Should I actually build an ice melee user, I'll have some more swords to silence. It's an incredible thing that all we need to know is the name of a sound, what directory it should go in and a silent.ogg file to rename in order to bring more joy to our gameplay experience.

I know this one! First: Hit this thread for great info on silencing a whole slew of sounds. The specific sound you want to kill is called (whoda thunk) "recharge." So you'll place your silent file called recharge.ogg into this path: <install directory>\data\sound\ogg\frontend\ That annoying not ready sound will never plague you again.

I've looked. I've failed to find anything that gives me the same feeling as CoH for pure visceral excitement in combat. Quite frankly, every other MMO I've touched bores the living #*($& out of me.

I'm teaming more now that I ever did on live. Also playing a lot more squishies than I ever did before. My uptick in teaming has nothing to do with the player population but is entirely because of the small group of people that I found myself teaming with. Small... as in less than 10 players. As others have stated, no server mergers unless it becomes financially necessary. There's only 5 shards for fark's sake.

https://forums.homecomingservers.com/forum/57-homecoming-beta/ You can now copy characters to test, start new ones and insta-level to 50, grant yourself 2 billion inf or just load up with every enhancement and incarnate power you want. But it's a one way trip and they can be wiped out at any time. So I'll keep usin AE for new alts.

The whole world would be a better place if everyone did.

It's simple. The game gives you the tools to do what you like. Don't like seeing spam in your channels for AE related junk? Gignore and go about your day. Don't like playing with people that PL? Gignore and go about your day. Quit trying to ruin what other people find fun, be it farming or powerleveling or soloing or roleplaying or whatever.... Harm No Other and Do as Ye Will. Ruin my ability to PL new alts for testing? You're harming my ability to enjoy this game and that makes YOU the asshole.

Were you doing it wrong on live?! The chinese would have gladly helped you out for $100 US or 1,000,000,000 infamy, which ever you preferred. One week. (joking of course) I was soloing.

Ummm... no. Me. I'm laughing cuz I can T3 a new alt in a matter of days not years.

Lunch is two illusions.

I have to agree. Time is not money. Time is an illusion. Lunchtime doubly so.

That's a good point about archery. My main sent now is fire/bio and I pretty much sit in melee.

Thanks to this thread... I now have a character with whirlwind. +recharge proc slotted. Will look at other procs soon. She also uses shadow maul and flurry. Actually, now that I ponder it, since flurry can't crit perhaps I should remake her as a brute.

As I learned last night.... stick one in whirlwind.

Once you get energize and energy drain you'll forgot all about your endurance issues.

Now have both fire/nin and fire/bio sents I 50. I apparently like fire blast a lot.

Massive +damres. Also you can slot SR for normal softcap of 45% to all positions and since barrier is perma (even though it scales down) you'll be over or near the incarnate softcap of 58% most of the time. Frees up a lot of other areas for slotting like extra HP and regen.

Copied him to beta for the stress test and suddenly had 676 badges so I doubt it. While I do prefer Beelzebubba (Claws/SR Brute also on Excel) for teaming, I still like playin the original when solo. I'm ok with the badges going over especially since the original goal only dealt with vet lvls and the badges were an after-thought for the screenshot.

Agreed. More options would be cool.

I got to where I wanted to be. I know I'll never join the leaderboard but thought I should post this here anyway.

I built a speedster last night. PLed her to 32. She attacks with Shadow Maul, Flurry and Whirlwind. Two of those are powers that are vastly considered to be complete wastes but for the concept it's pretty dang cool. For giggles, I had another concept character only use boxing, kick and crosspunch. I'd prefer to not see changes that would stop me from being able to do these silly things.

There's a juggling fairy in Ouroboros that let's you trade in threads for insps like the Ultimate +1 lvl insp or the huge levels of the regular insps. You can at least make a few inf selling those on the market. Think last time I did I got around 800K inf per Ultimate insp. I'd like to be able to convert threads to emps. Even at a 50 to 1 or 100 to 1 conversion rate it'd be worth it since you can turn 50 emps into a transcendent and email it to another character on the same account.

No it isn't. 🙂
