Those look amazing. When I get around to building my new computer, I will be spending more on a mouse and a keyboard. So I'm gonna keep that expensive one on my wishlist and look more into that v1 for the immediate. Thank you.

How?

So over the weekend I bought a cheap $10 mouse for my Chromebook and when I saw it had a few extra buttons I decided to try it on my PC and use some binds, it's a huge improvement being able to fire off most of my powers using just a mouse and a few key combos. I bought the cheapest most portable mouse since this wasn't intended for my PC, and I would like something a little better. Those of you that have a nice mouse with some extra buttons, what do you use? I'm not currently looking to spend $100 on a mouse, but something in the $35-50 range would be nice. Also, might as well share some of your favorite uses for extra mouse buttons while you're in here.

Correct. Good luck to a scrapper thinking they can pull a credible amount of aggro from my Spines/elec brute. I want to say challenge accepted, but between your Spines/Elec and my Elec/SD, I don't think anything outside of an AV could live long enough for us to find out.

This was my best DPS character back on Live.

I'll be bored with the game when I can solo the Ms Liberty TF with an AoE focused Scrapper. Until that time I there will be something more I want to accomplish in game.

Influence and high end builds being easier to come by will keep me playing longer. I don't want to spend hundreds of hours per character to get them where I want them.

Why do they need to be removed from the vendor?

I like the Seers, fortitude is awesome. That being said, since I have all of my sets I'm not sure how helpful it actually is for most of the stuff I do. Unless I'm trying to solo an AV I'm not so sure the buff is more useful than perhaps taking a higher damage pet.

Between the two options you mentioned, I'd choose Spines/Fire, all that AoE will make things go quickly for you. You can solo AVs with it as well, but DM would be better for that.

I'm planning on using that strategy quite a bit

Knockback and XP Debt. Also this. Sounds like I'm the type of Scrapper you'd enjoy.

Yes, because someone is going to go through that trouble to get to a CoH account. And then after they got it .... what would they do with it? If you have a personal enemy willing to go to such lengths to get at a gae you enjoy, you have a far more serious problem then whatever they could do to your characters. It's not about the CoX account, it's about the password itself. A lot of people, especially people old enough to have enjoyed CoX when it was NCSoft's/Cryptic's baby (even before Cryptic broke off and NCNorCal which later became Paragon Studios took over) or older, aren't savvy enough to use separate passwords for everything, especially if they were adults already back then. People like that, that CoX password could also be their Gmail password, their Paypal password, their Patreon password if they're a content creator, their YouTube/Twitch password also if they're a content creator, etc. This so very much. I work at a software company and just this week a client told me they planned to store their customer's CC numbers in a particular field that was plain text, no hashing, tokens, encryption of any kind. Another client tried to give me a log in to their company's Quickbooks(this is not something I would ever need for my job, ever), and another straight up gave me his password via email and it's a password he uses for everything. People are really, really bad with security.

Switching from Windowed mode to full screen seems to have fixed the problem for me, not sure if it will help anyone else. I always play the game in windowed mode, so I'm not sure why that seems to have been the issue(or at least related). But figure I'd share in case it helps anyone else.

Well been trying to get in game for an hour this time, so that's fun.

What if the end chat command required a combo key press that included either control or alt buttons?

My Elec/SD beat pylon in 15 minutes and 43 seconds. HA! So DPS of 171.25 HAHAHAHA! I'm rethinking attempting a solo ITF now.

I know I'm not the first to ask for this, and I have no idea how possible this even may be, but I'd love it if during a respec we could just move a few slots around instead of starting entirely from scratch. Sort of how we would do it in Pine's. On my current Scrapper I want to switch a couple IO sets around and one is five slotted and the other is six slotted. The idea of once again having to do it all isn't very appealing to me. Really my problem is reorganizing my power trays, I hate doing that. Maybe that could be saved? Plus I always forget to screenshot my set up, so it never fails I don't realize something is in the wrong place until I try and use a power while in the middle of a fight. These aren't MAJOR things, but sure would be badass if one or both could happen.

I did take Spring Attack for a while but dropped it for my final build. It was just so underwhelming compared to Lightning Rod, Shield Charge, Thunderstrike and Fireball. The damage wasn't TERRIBLE, but combined with it's long recharge it didn't really have a place in my build and I constantly forgot to use it.

Now that my build is finished, I don't know how to approach this with my Elec/SD. The problem with be Lightning Rod and Shield Charge killing all of my AAO fuel. And it's not like I can just not use those powers and get my best time, can I? No, no, I don't see how it's possible. I'm not expecting any sort of crazy number, or even a respectable number, but I am curious how well I can do.

A few weeks ago when I was running farms with my Scrapper without IOs I had constant bids out on Good Lucks and Dramatic Improvements and I'm pretty sure I single handily made those prices spike for a week or so. Was that why they were going for 50K each for a while? I think so! I knew I raised the price, but I didn't realize my likely impact until I saw them going for less than 1k a few days ago. Now that I have all my sets, I no longer need them lol.

I hang with MunkiLord on this one. The percentages might be different, but that can be said about any MMO/game community. How many people right on this forum can post about having been teleported to a high place launch by a troll? Sometimes that can be funny though! If I'm on a steamrolling team and we're all relaxed and joking, I have done that from time to time if I get to a mission door first. I'm very careful and selective about when I do that so as not to piss anyone off. Except for with jshmoe1236, we've been friends for a few decades and I'll do it to him anytime I get a chance.

I disagree. Your defensive response and shot at me just helps prove my point. We're just like every other gaming community out there. We have our helpful people, arrogant ones, rude ones, gamergaters, awesome people, lame ones, etc. I know people in this community, so I like it the most of the ones I've been around, but my personal feelings and attachment doesn't change my initial statement.

I constantly have this issue. Right now I'm looking at making a Blaster, Dom, or Corruptor. But in the end, I'll likely just make another Scrapper and everything works out for me.
