This is why I didn't put on my Snarky™ Hat and just said to go play the game.

Toggle my XP on/off so I can finish out the contact. On some character I play through the low level contacts, especially if I haven't played their arc in a good long while, other characters I team up with friends and get PL'd along the way. I'm not big on 'End Game' play so no need to rush to 50.

I just said it's an option. I don't even have a second account.

Go. Hunt. Kill Skuls.

This would fit in perfect with my Bots MM where I have replaced their stomping around with rubber ducky squeaks.

I'll just recommend that you download and hop into the game and see how it actually plays. Who knows you may actually have fun.

Another option would be to run a second account, create multiple characters that are held at 5-level increments, and team up with them to exemplar down with.

Take Fire and colour it like water, problem solved.

Thanks! I knew there was a list somewhere, couldn't find it. And yes, some far exceed not just the power slot, but the bar itself. The Badge_GotTip is actually slightly larger than the slot, covering the slot border but doesn't overlap slots next to it, so I find it acceptable. Not to mention it looks like a notebook and fits the theme. :)

You get Tailor Discount Coupons (-25%) when logging out at any tailor for the day job. As for Free Tailor Token, not sure other than Super Packs. May have changed with HC though.

Regarding icon use in macros, I believe the image file name used in the wiki will use the same icon in the marco. For instance: /macroimage Badge_GotTip BgLst popmenu badgelist will use for the toolbar button.

Not necessarily a typo, but it is backwards. Task Forces for Heroes, Strike Force for Villains

A big THANK YOU to all of the Devs/Mods who brought this together! And a big Conga ratz! to all the winners and all the folks who participated! I saw a bunch of amazing costumes on Torch!

Along with @Crystal Dragon's list below I would include: ah: Auction House, which can be accessed on the go with the /ah command from pretty much anywhere but SG's and instanced maps. SG: Super Group Instanced maps are pretty much every mission you enter a door/shuttle/ferry/helicopter to enter. You can find the majority of them here: https://homecoming.wiki/wiki/Category:Definition

At first, with all the influx of returning/new players I was surprised that no one chimed in on the Protector thread, then I realized that we're all probably already here. :D

Something I use on all of my Goldsiders /macro_image "DayJob_XPBoost" "XP Toggle" "option_toggle noxp" this way I have a toggle button on my toolbar for turning XP on/off. As far as running content, I haven't done the guide yet but rather going full extreme Loyalist on one character, full batsh!t Resistance on another, then I'll do infiltration on two others for the stories. Maybe then I'll think about a guide run.

Sorry, but one of my character's psy abilities are natural to her race. Another character's ice powers are a natural ability tied to their race. You see where this is going?

@Solarverse 's thread can be found here...

No idea other than PoV from your camera to the target is occluded somehow, but then I'd expect it to no show up on the other side then either.

Respc'd my character on Excelsior to get Translocation and verified that it's accessible.

No suggestions, just stopping by to say welcome back @Grouchybeast! :)

Welcome to CoH! Long before you get into the tutorial (which I think everyone new to CoH should run through at least once just to get a feel for how the controls work and how your character's play) there is the character creator. Depending on what you have in mind and how much you want to work towards the 'perfect look' you could easily spend 2 hours just creating your character's look and the colours of your chosen powersets. You can actually do this while the game is still installing. While you are in the CC (character/costume creator) the tutorials will be installed, and after that the game itself is installed. If you want an idea of how varied the costumes can get, head down to Post your best costume here to see what others have created. One of the things I love about CoH is that unlike other MMO's, your costume has zero impact on your character's abilities. Your powers are enhanced directly with your 'gear' in the form of, wait for it... enhancements. @DougGraves gave pretty good suggestions on character archetypes to start with depending on if you want to play melee or ranged and @Techwright gave a pretty comprehensive list of things to be aware of. I just like to add, once you get in the game proper don't be afraid to ask questions. Oh and another thing, you can play on 1 server or all the servers and your limit on characters is basically your own imagination. While Excelsior is the highest pop server that also comes with it's own drawbacks. Heck, make a character on every server and check out the community on all of them to find one to your liking. Once again, welcome!
