@RonJ73 - Thank you very much!

Happy to help!  It was way easier than I thought.

[Mastermind Farming: Discussion/Guide]

The HD version is currently processing, but should be ready shortly.  The SD version is fuzzy as heck. 🙂

[Radiation Melee Scrapper...]

I don't know if this was brought up before, but as a little quality of life suggestion, if it wouldn't be a big deal to do, for non-Scrapper Native sets, like Radiation Melee, would it be possible to get the Critical graphic to pop over the baddie's heads when it happens?  That's one of the most fun parts of playing a scrapper. 🙂

 

Thanks for all you do!

[Kinetics/Sonic Build...]

This is a build I did in Mids for a Kin/Sonic defender.  I haven't had the money to fully realize it on the servers, but would appreciate some critiques if you don't mind.

[Fire/Kin/Mace build for general content]

So I've been looking for a good Fire/Kin build but anything I find seems to gear towards farming.  I just wanted something for general content.  So I was fussing in Mids and this is what I came up with.  Comments, criticisms and suggestions are GREATLY appreciated.  I haven't included any incarnate stuff yet.

Wow.  Only 16 hours after it was submitted.  Oy.

What we need...is a Karen. This would be fixed in under 15 minutes. Someone go grab a Karen off the shelf, unpack her,and put in the two double A batteries. Turn her on, (wait,what?) and let her go. I need my COH fix. I'm jonesing like a crackhead!!!

As a slightly inconvenienced gay man, I can take this role.  Who's manager do I need to call?

[instant level 50 on live]

We have the Double XP option at the P2W vendor, you can stack it up for 8 hours at a time.  You have DFB trials and DiB trials.  Those will basically bring you to about 30 in fairly short order.  Anything after that should come pretty quickly if you team with folks.  There's some awesome content in this game, enjoy it!

[I don't get why this is so much better than CO]

We all have a special place in our heart for our first love.  For many of us, that was City of Heroes.  Sure, the new one might be prettier, but it just didn't have the same feels associated with it as the first.

[Say a thanks? Share a memory!]

Thanks so much for all the effort you've put into this.  I'm still downloading the client, but just looking through this list and seeing screennames of people I remember from so many years ago is bringing a flood of memories back!  You all are supremely awesome!
