Clave Dark 5

Is that another monstrosity created by the Chile Pepper Institute in New Mexico?

Unless you tank because the team is hard up for tanky-types, or if you run waaay ahead of the team on the map, then TP them to the AV, or other such things. I enjoy the tanking the most, THAT impresses a lot of people who don't know nany better.

With Incarnates walking around a dime a dozen, fully purpled-out builds, you name it, isn't this game already easy enough? The only time I might agree with this is MMs, who's pets seem to very often get one-shotted, which of course gimps you terribly.

Whoa, may I ask about this? If you'd prefer not to, feel free to not even reply.

They need to update the Wikipedia article then, it disagrees.

Probably yeah, for most people. I get super tired of bouncing off walls in caves, and I find a Kin deathly dull to play, but having one around is always ha ha a boost.

Again, notes inside in hidden stuff...

Some points addressed above in the hidden text (I hope, I'm not sure how that works on these forums)/

Go fight some Romans and tell me that you never get tired of hearing their constant "Eeeeuuuuraaaugh!" And then make me believe you. 😃 I've been considering getting enough into modding to get rid of those sounds...

So back on Live, I was working on this one story and gave up because of how wonky the AE works, which included weird NPC actions despite being set to do X. I've now resurrected this from the tombs, thinking it was "nearly done" but ho ho, nooooo... I've reworked it into nearly a workable shape, notwithstanding the NPCs still doing a few odd things when they shouldn't. Regardless, it works! To give you some ideas about it... It was inspired a number of sci-fi films such as Planet Of The Vampires and Carpenter's Ghosts of Mars, which is shares some DNA with, although I didn't see that one until I already had most of the story worked out. You may also note similarities to a certain group of in-game foes, lore that I also didn't know when I conceived the story, ha ha. This is a straight-forward style of story telling, nothing surreal as some of my past (but not all!) AE stories have been. Enjoy!

Hard pass from me. The few times I've heard voices in vidya games (not that I play any, really), their idea of "good voice acting" is like bottom of the barrel Hanna-Barbera cartoon characters. Like nails on the blackboard of my mind.

Second time I've been able to post this today, but he also does good work near a dumpster.

Dumpsters do that too with trash.

That's all from me on this topic, see y'all next year!

Who cares, go nuts and make one yourself! Might not be "canon" but again, who cares?

I've wanted Glove options like this as well.

One gets Mod intervention, one doesn't. You know which one does.

Somewhat off topic, but I don't play MMs much and just rebuilt one and have been seeing this a LOT. Best I way I know to get rid of it I quickly is click a "Goto Attack" spot and then reset into Bodyguard or Attack My Target as needed (yes, I do tend to move them around a bit). Is that the best way to get past this problem, or is there something else I haven't thought of?

It's not the space we're worried about, it's the XP and drops. I'd also point out that "go do something and wait for them to be gone" wasn't effective as they were literally always there, unless they'd just been reported and removed. "Whack-a-mole" and "they always come back" were two ways a mod put it in replies to my reports. I'd be up to see the door timers get extended though, although it's always sad to see the group get smacked in some way because a few bad actors. I'm not a huge fan of that sort of response, I feel the ones doing the bad things should be the ones to be affected.

Their pets fire at whatever gets nearby, not only minions. And please don't characterize this as "how MMs play" in the first place, because you're suggesting every person who plays an MM plays this way (not true), and it's also not a related topic. Now listen: one of the leeches that I kept reporting would often have what I would assume were alt account characters (they were all members of the same SG, all) parked up in the AE building; usually four of them. My guess is they were on the team with the MM down in the parking lot (who wasn't in league), and were leveling up and catching drops without doing a single thing, while the MM below let his pets do the work. Meanwhile, I was down there clicking doors and targeting mobs, rezzing others and serving as anchor - even with one of my MMs. Now tell me who was doing real work and who was leeching. Exploits are expressly disallowed in the rules. But hey, once again, let me extend an invite, please invite me the next time you play, so that I can tag along behind you to demonstrate what I'm talking about. 😃
