You are giving people the impression it okay and honky dory and they will never have issues if they put it in there. The people on discord have had to help ad nauseam people move their game install from "documents" even though "it was working great the last week/days or so"...not to mention people trying to run it from One Drive, their torrent download folder, their download folder etc etc. That is all I am saying. If you wish to advise people that's great but please suggest they put it in X:/games/coh or cityofheroes. If you spend enough time helping in discord you will soon understand post like yours in this thread leads to confused people and issues down the line which just creates more work for the volunteer helpers.

A few files you may not have that are in my pics: Costumes (saved costumes from the character creator) Custom_Critter (AE stuff) CustomVillainGroup (AE stuff) Data (for vidiotmaps and other custom stuff like sounds and fonts) PowerCust (saved power colors from character creation) chat.txt keybinds.txt options.txt PlayerCreatedSouvenirClues.txt (AE stuff) wdw.txt If you have any of the above that is fine too. Obviously if you do not use tequila as a launcher then any "tequila" stuff in this list wont be there and you will have the appropriate files for what ever launcher you do use. Those of you having problems with the openGL shim I suggest you visit discord and try to get help there as it not something I have personal experience with barring getting this down here to get it to the people that visit this forum. That said with summer coming along my time is much more limited, I have a real life and family ;) , so I will not be as active as I was originally though I will still try to keep an eye on things and attempt to keep things updated. There's lots of work being done in the background by various people and the SCOTS team... I will bring more information as it becomes available. Last but not least I wish to reiterate this here: I feel it needs repeating as there are a few, well intentioned I think, people that keep saying running the game in your "Documents" is fine and it work just fine for them etc etc. This is a bad idea.... we suggest not installing there for very good reasons, it's not something we just decided and made up. I have had to help ad nauseam people who had no issues issue running the game from documents till it did develop issues and I had to walk them over the process of moving their install to X:/games/cityofheroes. You should also avoid trying to run/install the game to your bitclient download folder or OneDrive. Ideally you want to put it two folder in so X:/games/coh or cityofheroes and avoid location only one folder in (the root) like X:/coh or x:/cityofheroes.

Documents is a bad place to put games period as as the directory gets bigger it can cause issues. We have said this many times over. You know this as I know you read this in another thread. If you don't know what you are doing please stop spreading misinformation and making work down the line for the people here and in discord that will have to then deal with fixing things that can be easily avoided. Installing games in your "documents" is as clever as trying to run games from OneDrive......

Oh nice! I will have to take a look at those. ;D

*looks up* Ah I'm so jelly...some really fine creations in this thread! ;D

What is this buff station you speak of?

Aye will keep it in mind :)

Ha lol made a quick 40 mil inf in like 30 mins tonight so went ahead about bought and stuck in attuned: Level 4: Healing Flames (A) Panacea - Heal/absorb/Recharge (5) Numina's Convalesence - Heal/absorb/Recharge (5) Doctored Wounds - Heal/absorb/Recharge Now I am wondering, since all the set IO's i have are attuned what I could put instead of the HamiO's that can be attuned or is is still worth putting hamiO's even though they dont keep working when exemplared etc? Right now I have simple resist IO, in there and would like to improve that to something better Thanks for the replies @MunkiLord and jack_nomind

I think I found the answer thanks to MunkiLord... now correct me if I am wrong but he tells me that for example panacea heal/absorb really means it is Heal OR absorb when slotted not both thus heal/absorb/rech is effectively what I am looking for...as it is essentially heal/rech OR absorb/rech... I dunno why the game or paragon wiki just assumes you know this as if you're looking stuff up there then obviously you don't...lol It's a problem with trying to learn about this game when you never played before there's too much jargon and knowledge that's just assumed but isn't really mentioned anywhere. It would be like me saying to someone needing tech help they need to "delete the tequila registry key" with no further explanation when they don't know how to open cmd prompt.....lol

Oh so the heal/absorb is really a heal or absorb and not both at once then which would make a heal/absorb/rech really a heal/rech or absorb/rech? That would explain some other question I was having...I was told in discord that heal/rech on those didn't exist anymore but what you say here make's a whole lot more sense to me now. If that really how it works you would think paragon wiki or even in game it would mention it unless I missed it somewhere...lol

Since I have learned to play the AH a little I was able to make some decent Inf and have this currently. I am looking on some feedback on healing sets. Most notably the old build I was using as a guide/example has this in healing flames: Now I can see his goal here was to increase his heal output each time he uses Healing flames and to shorten the recharge time as much as possible. That said this particular combination (heal/rech) is in game anymore, at least from what I have been able to find out. The closest I could get is heal/absorb/rech. Is it still worth doing this do you think, keeping in mind this power will not likely have more than 3 slots to use? I have to admit since I solo lots this still seems interesting to me, the reducing of the CD of healing flames over all. All set IO's are attuned.

Okay I think Veelectric Boogaloo is in error tbh. If you look at the pic these seemed to be specialty IO set piece that can only be had in a specific manner unique to them. Thus my question remains can you get IO set piece that are heal/rech only...not heal/absord/rech or heal/absord. I can see the last two combination in the AH just fine and also see them in the merit vendor but I am not seeing ANY heal/rech combinations For numina's heal/rech paragon wiki sayd its in the merit vendor for 200 merits but I dont see anything that cost more than 100 merits? Guessing they no longer exist or did once but were changed? Be nice to have someone confirm that yes indeed these were changed or just dont exist in homecoming? Guessing paragon wiki is wrong in this case?

Guys and Gals to avoid huge images that go off screen use these tags

I don't have Merits to buy them that way either. I'm not farming, I'm playing, and I don't have a toon above 40 yet (alt-itis). .....snip... I don't use merits for salvage either, there's another wildly unused currency that's easy to get and btw I have 2 toons one lvl 15 and a lvl 31.

My install guide has a fix, post 6 iirc on page one, for people that can't get the game to run on HD3000 igpu.

You don't have to pay 600k+ or 800k+ for rare's to craft them goodies...is all I will say.

I agree. As someone who has never played before on the official servers I find I get answer like above which are not really helpful. Some of us do not want to reinvent the wheel, do not want to play for 6 months intensively to"figure stuff out for ourselves". I mean yes we will learn as we play but we don't necessarily want to have to figure out all the minutia when others can simply give us answers as they have already. Also some of us do look at other guides and old builds but then we do not know what is relevant and what isn't especially those of us that never played before and have no idea what power, io sets etc etc came out when and was nerfed when or supplanted by xyz in terms or raw damage/def etc etc.

Can you attune hamidon enhancements?

up and away! I have been quite ill the last 5 days or so...will get back to it when I am feeling better.

Great, that must be the problem then since I am lvl 28 only, thanks for the reply!

Does the merit vendor not show everything it has for sale unless you are in lvl range or something? In other npc vendors I can see stuff they are selling even if I can't use it yet?
