Yeah, PvP has never been a big thing in CoH, wasn't even included in the original game. Arenas were introduced in Issue 4 and PvP zones in Issue 6 and a rebalance in Issue 13. Want to hear about how much CoH players like PvP? Ask any badger about being forced to enter PvP zones for exploration badges. 🙂

I think they should export the difficulty options from Ouro flashbacks to general play for players seeking more challenges in the normal content, including TFs/SFs. About as mandatory as the 'Holy Trinity or "healers" rocken the aura.

I see it more or less as a training arc, teaching new players the ins and outs of gameplay. Sadly, it can easily overpower your character as it grows in difficulty far more quickly that your hero does. I think many new players aren't going to know to take a break from it, run some other contacts, and come back to it after a few levels. It's definitely not something I'll run more than once. And I did it back on Legacy, so I'm covered... <.<

What makes CoH great? I'd have to say a few things: 1. The community, where people will help out others whether it be with a mission, a costume, build suggestions, drive-by buffing, or just dropping inf on a random lowbie in AP. 2. The community, where folks will spend their time bringing back a game that we all love without expecting anything in return because they love it as much as we do. 3. The community.

I'm not sure if the Legacy devs stated how many names were freed up, but they say that after the last time they ran it, only a small percentage of the released names were ever claimed, something like 8%. Might have been at one of the HeroCons.

Sad but true, though I think they are probably a small (but vocal) minority.

This is about the only thing in this thread that DOES concern me about this change, and I agree it needs to be examined. There should be plenty of encouragement to EX down and help lower level characters. I'd have to argue that I'm sure that there are plenty of players out their exemplaring down without even giving a thought to the rewards, other than helping out fellow players. If my memory servers me correctly, players even used to do it when they got ZERO rewards when exemp'ing down.

Never used the Tech Knight Faceplate and decided to see why I could come up with.

I just launched and logged in on 64bit without issue. Have you tried altering which manifest you are connecting through? That usually solves it for me when I have an issue with downloads or connecting. EDIT: Also, check the #client-issues channel in CoH:H Discord, their pinned posts have some solutions to try as well.

Due to stay at home orders more people are playing, so more are crafting Enh's. Prices are creeping because players have to have it now, rather than placing a below the market bid and wait. Bid what you're willing to pay and not 1 inf more. I have honestly never paid the high prices that I've seen listed for the 'last 5'. Because I'm a cheapskate, but mostly because I'm patient.

Can we get a Facepalm react for forum posts please. For some posts Sad or Confused just don't convey the right emotion, but a Facepalm will do the trick.

You mean like playing an MMO for free?

They can be spawned in Steel as well, as one of my fellow Protectorites back on Legacy did so then drug it over to the burning building to blow it up.

It would be funny as all get out if teammates who all have the same mission choose to complete them all at the same time and a Kronos Titan spawns for each of them, rather than just the one for the mission.

I slot SOs when they start dropping, so L25 and up. I don't even bother with IOs until 45-50. So this QoL improvement is a Devsend!

Because the game is balances around SOs. It would be a lot of unnecessary work for the devs to rework the entire system just to nix SOs.

Kronos Titans will spawn in Talos for 1 of 2 reasons: Mods will spawn them. As @MangoKulfimentioned running Crimson's mission in FF. This portion in particular will spawn the Kronos Titan ambush: https://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Crimson#Stop_all_Wildflower_agents This will generally spawn the Kronos in FF after exiting the mission. Players can change it's spawn point by using Ouro or your Base Teleporter from within the mission, Then the Kronos Titan will spawn where ever you exit.

Nope... It did not, because on live you stopped earning XP at 50.

That's where I normally get it at.

I've see this happen with my own GS, but it's non consistent. So far it's only happened in one mission for me and when I re-summoned it the next time it traveled floor to floor without issue.

As far as I'm concerned, there's already a spending cap. It's what any given player is willing to spend on any given item in the AH.

I thought it was hilarious as hell and figured, just think of all the people still hung up on Jack and here we are almost a year into HC and it's still going well.

Pretty sure that disabling Patrol XP affects everyone equally, while the changes the devs made primarily impacts exploitative farmers.
