A City of Heroes Symphony, In D Minor - arc #55518
Clave Dark 5 replied to Clave Dark 5's topic in Mission Architect
Ok, then yeah, this was not it - unless you count myself as the Mary Sue making you run around. But that would be most authors here, right? I'll hide in the crowd. -
I've fallen prey to that annoying "whoopsie!" when you accidently collapse your chat window and only have the Global, the top half, showing. My search-fu is pretty ADHD so I didn't find an answer on the wiki, so can someone please explain to me in single syllables how to fix this? I promise I will cut and paste it into my growing Google doc of "COH Info" and will never bother anyone about this again, thank you!

A City of Heroes Symphony, In D Minor - arc #55518
Clave Dark 5 replied to Clave Dark 5's topic in Mission Architect
Perspicacious criticism! Totally a vanity project, though, because I do love art house movies. I can't read music, much, so this was all just aiming for verisimilitude at best. Without hopefully getting too into the weeds, the glowies were just there to make more sounds, hence being ignored in the nav window. I should probably somehow mark them more clearly as "optional"... -
What's the goto meta for making inf now?
Clave Dark 5 replied to MattBold's topic in General Discussion
That would seem to be a needless level of redundancy, but that tracks in that use, yeah. -

Side note: curious about this use of the word "meta" that I am previously unaware of... -
There's always AE! *hikes a thumb at his own arcs* Eh? Eh? 😃

Not exactly griefing, which implies intent, if I didn't know this fact until right now. That should be changed, it's BS. As I don't often get deep into the Incarnate areas, I've only ever taken it on one toon, which was for Halloween (I was a GM scout, "Pink Bampfer" says hello!). I usually set my toons to auto accept because I got tired of having to click it. Haven't used it hardly anywhere else that I can think of, really, maybe only a handful of times at best. I alt a lot, so it's not like Pink sees constant use.

Whichever one contacted me first. You do you.

Whoops yeah, left out a step; thanks for the recovery.

Will no one rid me of this troublesome version?!

Side note: you are out of the loop on stalkers. I have tanked, and I have drawn MSR Rikti into the bowl with stalkers, for example. To be simple, they're Scrappers now with some special effects. Look into them, they rock!

The beautiful Aeon Strike Force and it's tragic failure
Clave Dark 5 replied to Snarky's topic in General Discussion
I've had to observe a solid NO AEON rule as it seems like every time I get on one (I think 3 times now, tops; maybe only twice)I was playing with Old Hands at it who felt the need to waste precious speeding time berating newbies who had the unmitigated gall to die because this was our first time or something. One dispensed his SMH wisdom about thirty seconds after I said I couldn't see anything and got super-killed. Genius. I also do tend to go for concept over squeezing half a point more Def out of a whimpering Tough, so I'm already at a disadvantage on these things. I have done nearly a pity "good job!" on a starred ITF, a couple of times. Just one star though. Y'all can have those runs, enjoy! -
I'm here for the story, and due to the limited nature of sharing said story in the AE, I'm probably shooting for soloists. One mission of my latest even doesn't have you fight anyone, it's just all story. I'm not here to give you a prettier farm. 😃 I also rarely have difficulty cranked or anything, so I dunno, my missions might be the next circle of hell for players if they routinely do. To be honest ha ha, never considered that wrinkle until just now, but I do tend to try and aim for "easy enough" so as to not distract from the story-reading.

Say whaaaaat? Look, force yourself to keep playing a 50 even with mere SOs, start doing 50 content, get a few Aether Particles, sell and spend. Do some mothership raids, covert Vanguard merits to Enhancement Catalysts, do that a lot. You get to slowly slot your one 50, then keep playing them as they keep getting better. Really, after a bit, that and craft-and-selling recipes that drop (that have obvious market appeal) will get you there. That's what worked for me. Pewpewpew!! ETA: forgot one important thing, do lots of Summer Blockbusters, those enhancer sell for like 7 million and SBB is super easy.

Good News. New Players. Bad news. Teams suck.
Clave Dark 5 replied to Snarky's topic in General Discussion
Sorry, just not fast enough to be a "speed run" -
Yeah, I remove it from my chat once it becomes a problem. I have reported some of it too, and also ignored a few. I really should remember to put one star ratings on them so I can avoid them too, like I did with ToT leeches back during Halloween.
-
I've never made trillions, I don't liked homework. I'm here to pewpewpew. I have only rarely, rarely, been hard up enough for inf that I acutely felt it. Play the game and enough will flow to help you out (unless you're a crazy min/maxer looking to slot 15 purple sets, but even that I could have done after a bit, if I had wanted to; but that too in unnecessary to play)

Pleased to meet you, Serpent Drummer! My name is...

What forum(s) do you never read/post to?
Clave Dark 5 replied to Techwright's topic in General Discussion
I would never read a forum that would have me as a member. Serious answer: I usually stick to just Suggestions, General, and Mission Architects. I do dip into Mission Architect (having just pubbed a new one and for tips). I have one in a while looked into whatever it's called, "superhero culture" or something? -
I want to say experimenting with this that I had randomly set the map's background foes to something like a 40-54 group, then got error messages for having Eochai there and the level ranges between the group and him not lining up. But everything else there is good to know, and matches what I've seen so far, yeah - thanks!
-
But isn't there a way to-- NO. Poking about, I did find out that one of the other GMs would reliably do poses, one of those big crystal guys from DevEarth. I just had this great visual of a whole forest of Eochais swaying gently in the breeze, just set-dressing... sigh... And what I wanted to set him as a non-combat escort objective? Oh well. AE is just so janky. Sometimes X works,sometimes it doesn't. I've accidentally tricked it into allowing "too many" floor collection objects (tested and saved it multiple times too) , then had them rejected after I went in and changed some text or something.

Ever come back to a AT + Power and find greatness?
Clave Dark 5 replied to Snarky's topic in General Discussion
Yup. I leveled a (I think) Dark/Grav something awhile back to like 4o, then drifted away, he never clicked for me. Then over a year later I made a Dark Grav something with this great concept and zoomed to 50 really quickly... then discovered I'd already had one that I had forgotten about. Him I'll probably strip out and delte one of these days, but this is why I'm happy to let others collect dust at say 15. Plus, who knows when a set revamp might sudden;y make them better? -
