You misunderstand why its important, the reason is because you knew how amazing the community was then and your helping bringing that back to mmos like this one, it has nothing to do with ego or being better and more to do with the communities like on the rp servers. It's absolutely about ego as much as it would be with any other community. CoH players are just like any other community out there. The fact that we've met friends here doesn't change that.

I assume -res on an enemy will.

This is a terrible suggestion. If you don't want it to be easy, then set up some sort of artificial restrictions on yourself instead of asking for it to be forced on everyone else.

Regen. The Incarnate powers alone won't be enough to overcome a buffed Recluse. So once those are gone -regen is definitely what we want.

I think people are missing a huge point in posting builds and asking for advice, or even asking for a build, is to learn things about a set or powers that may not be obvious or easy to understand by playing it or just looking at raw numbers. It's rarely about someone asking others to make a decision for them, it's about gaining new insights or perspectives on a powerset combo so one has more information to make decisions that will benefit them the most. I may not use a person's suggestion if it doesn't work for me, and they may not use my suggestion if it doesn't work for them. But by sharing our own views and discussing such topics we are enhancing our own knowledge on the subject. Other's opinions on builds are a tool to help me maximize my own fun, much like Pine's, or the forums, or Paragon Wiki.

They are by character, but you can save your bind file using this command: /bind_save and /bind_load will load it. For anyone interested here is a good guide on the subject: https://cityofheroes.fandom.com/wiki/The_Incomplete_and_Unofficial_Guide_to_/bind

Submitting a ticket didn't help, just generic advice. Which leads me to believe they aren't yet sure what is causing the problem. Edit: This time I've been trying to log into my Scrapper that is in PI for an hour now.

SR was the only set that allowed me to take out Ghost Widow solo, which very well may just be due to pure luck since I only did it once. And it was certainly the best set I used against Silver Mantis. I realize my examples aren't the norm.

I just came in here because the title made me giggle and I'm clearly very mature.

Would this mean I could make a Ninja/SR Scrapper, Emp/Pain Brute, or a Dark Melee/Fire Blast Blaster! If those things are possible, then f*** yes, I'm in. Screw balance. Let me take my attackless Scrapper or ultimate suicidal Blapper and laugh in the face of xp debt.

More so as a brute since they have a higher cap on resists, and they get a taunt aura so mobs stick. True, but Scrapper Spines/Fire is capable of soloing the ITF, so they are pretty great as well. I'm sure a Brute can too, but SCRAPPERLOCK

The answer is clearly Scrapper, all Scrappers, always. But since other ATs exists, I would choose Defender, Controller, Corruptor, Doesn't Matter.

These are all fantastic suggestions, I appreciate it everyone. So................I already have a pretty high end Elec/SD that is just missing the Portal Jockey Accolade. What does everyone think about maybe using that? I understand that the ST is very lacking, I don't have confront, and it's likely a long shot. But does anyone think there is a way to make that work?

Just depends on the situation. If you use purples to get your defense above 45% you won't get hit very often at all. Since your base defense is already higher than resist, it'll be easier to reach the 45% defense soft cap than the 75% resist cap. I suggest having a few key stats like defense, recovery, recharge, and whatever else you want to monitor open at all times so you can see where you're at any given moment. If you select the powers tab there is an option for combat attributes, open that and right click on the window and you can choose stats to constantly monitor in a window you can move around.

Higher defense makes you more difficult to hit, think dodging attacks(Spide-Man) or deflecting attacks with a shield(Captain America) and Resistance means when hits do land they don't hurt you as much(Superman). Make sure you take you Seishineteki Kyoyo soon as you can as that helps you recover endurance and it's a big boost. While I don't have a lot of slots at low levels I'll put an accuracy and end reducer in all of my attacks so they don't as much endurance and I hit more often. A miss is a total waste of endurance. Play around with how it feels for you to see if you need to do that or if you can slot more damage. I haven't used Ninjitsu myself, but just glancing at it it appears the first 7 powers are must haves and you can decide whether or not you want the last two.

This is how I use Lightning Rod, and it's amazing.

I would, but I only have about 2 million

My suggestion is you and your wife both making a Cold Defender or Corruptor with whatever blasting set you want. The buffing to each other and debuffing of the enemies is disgustingly potent. It's fun.

This is what I do with Combat Jumping and Ninja Run except I use 'C' instead. Binds make the game so much better.

Combat Jumping is my favorite, I take it on every hero. The defense is nice to help reach soft cap and you can put a Luck of the Gambler +recharge there. But the primary reason I take it is for the mobility it gives you in combat.

Couple quick notes: I'm not a fan of Havoc Punch, I found Jacobs Ladder being a cone to be better for me, of course, your playstyle may disagree. I feel like if you're going to spend the influence/merits to use Luck of the Gambler for set bonuses, it's worth finding an extra slot for the +7.5% recharge to be one of them. I also agree factoring in the Alpha Slot would be a good idea since it's so easy to attain. At minimum Tier 3 should be expected relatively quickly.

I no longer have an Android phone, so I can't test this myself, but this could work: https://www.androidauthority.com/open-exe-on-android-868743/

I use binds for all travel powers. I find pressing X or C to toggle a travel power both saves me time and space in my power trays.

I also believe it was filed out of necessity on the part of Marvel - they need to have documented evidence of "vigorously defending" their copyrights and trademarks, which is a component of trademark and intellectual property law. One is not required to defend copyrights or risk losing them, that is only trademarks. One could argue whether or not it was really necessary in this case for their trademark claim, but no point in arguing that. But it's definitely not a part of copyright law.

This is very true and I agree here. But people need to keep in mind at time Marvel was a failing company desperate for revenue to keep the doors open, and that almost definitely played a huge factor in their decision to sue, quite possibly the biggest factor.
