Clave Dark 5

I like it! Even though it's a tad darker for the "dark 'n gritty" take on everything. That said, this could also easily double for the red side too.

I'm on-a Paragon... Radio!

As someone who's so far leveled up two MMs (of five 50s total), this sound phenomenal. Both times, once I hit that magical land of 50, I was also hitting that wall of "I'm sick of wrangling pets! I just wanna go out and shoot something my own damn self now!" Neither of my 50th MMs have seen one jot of Incarnate anything, Alpha slots nor trials. This maybe be subject to change now.

I coulda swore I saw some good posts here about proccing up the Beast Mastery set, but I can't find it anymore, because my search in unslotted, so I'm just asking to be PLed here. (and yes, I still haven't downloaded Mids; I only think about this at work where I can't and when I get home I don't feel like doing the homework) I have Call Ravens/Bees etc. well procced as described by a post in the following source But the given suggestions for the Beasts themselves (rather than the secondary MM attacks) seems less proccy than I recalled. Or am I misremembering? Are there other suggestions for frankenslotting the heck out of my Beasts?

Not long ago I was thrilled while battling my way through a couple of missions to see the orange text "Recipe Found!" pop up a few times, along with a yellow one and several whites. So afterwards I went and opened up my recipe list to see what I had gotten. Two, TWO copies of the same Perfect Zinger recipes, then another one of a different acc/taunt/whatever mix, and then a sleep recipe. All trash on the market. But that's not the market's fault.

Cynicism tears up the road map before you get anywhere.

Pretty sure I saw that on a character I was leveling up like last week, yes.

If we got it, I know I'd end up using it, I;'d like a 'distressed' one for example. It seems like it should be something easy to do, but I'm no coder. I want bold and italics too. Sure, why not? But if it doesn't happen, not gonna cry over it.

It's not really all that dynamic without the flashy purple stuff though, it's just your character taking a half squat like somebody on green-screen surf board from some dumb beach movie from the 60s. Plus it was meant to be a flashy "special" thing for the City of Heroes Collector DVD/Hero Kit. But I do wish we could recolor too, and even make it invisible for you if you so want. I mean, the more options the merrier, right?

With you on this 100%.

It's funny, during Live I rarely took anyone to 50, I think I had maybe 3 by the time it shut down, after joining in Issue 6. Now here I am with (counts up names in signature) FIVE! At least one of them was by sheer random chance too! Maybe my experience will rub off on you or something, good luck!

Speak for yourself! I recently ran that string of 50 level missions where every map is the destroyed city and it's repopulated each time with single types of foes, and got to run the "Oops! All Warwolves!" one. Crowds and crowds of Warwolves throwing presents! Maybe I'm more easily entertained by silliness.

Best of luck with your surgery!

Right now, Warwolves are throwing presents instead of parts of the floor, which is fun!

This was my experience for about the last year if the original run of the game, once incarnate stuff was added. I could literally log on, find say a hundred folk in one server, and like 80 to 90% of them were 50 and sitting in Pocket D. These days I see all sorts of "LFM for running missions in X, any levels welcome."

I took Repulsion Field on my FF MM for lack of anything else. I mean, I guess I could have taken Hasten but I really didn't feel like he needed any help there), and other than that very occasional panic button.... (I hate panic button powers anyway).

I started too late to ever see any Perez Park sweeping, but just the other day wandered around in it with a 50 for the badges, and what a nice early map that is! Maybe some areas should get stocked with "level-less" foes that will provide a reasonable fight to any hero or villain, like the Rikti during invasions.

Like with all events, it would be to hold it something like 3 times a year, or to make it year-round via an Ouro echo or something like that.

Woo, talk about taking a hell of a lot of time to get done, without any chance whatsoever of hard feelings! And then how long would each "elected position" last? What if I get elected and then annoy a few players, do they get to recall me?

Trying to cram my AE stories into the limited space back before shut down really taught me the value of concise word choice. It's a good skill to have in today's ADHD world. You'll need to put your character's War&Peace elsewhere.

I haven't played a lot since Tuesday I think, but it did seem to happen to me a lot. The funny thing was it would kick my right out and shut down the program. The launcher thingy was up, but CoH itself had shut down completely. Had it happen to me like 3 or 4 times that night, always when doing something like hopping the tram to another map.

The only soloing of TF-type stuff I've ever done was done back before shut-down. I had found and followed a good build for an Ill/Rad troller that was packed with enough recharge to perma the the Phantom Army. I ended up running thru the Baby New Year and Lady Winter stories a ton because I love the winter maps and the build allowed me to feel relaxed enough to actually risk soloing (I generally get too tense when things get really tough,. and that's not why I play this game). Going back to the OP post, this was obviously because Rad allows me to debuff the foes enough to render them toothless, not the other way around.

The pro vs. con of incentivizing red-side's been chewed over pretty well here, so I won't go into that. I will note that the red-side Patron pools were in the game long before there was any way to cross over for your hero to get them, so they can't have been kept separate " to encourage players to play red-side." Coh and CoV were separate games at first. I would imagine that they're done with patron arcs to get you to engage more with game lore, by aligning yourself with one of the top villains. (Hero-side maybe could do something similar, although I dunno if heroes would try and encourage side-kicks as much as villains might.)

I accidently wandered into the red-side one early on and was all like "oh yeah, this..." I poked around a little and then left. Such things could be easily repurposed to useful things by the HC team, it'd be fun to imagine.

I think those are the Bit O Honeys of the superpack trick-or-treat bags too. Still, from what I've seen those enhancers tend to sell for closeish to 20 mill. I've bought all of one pack so far myself as well (I usually have a list of things I want to buy and so don't feel the breathing space to splurge) and I pretty much just broke even right there.
