Mr. Vee

The one in pocket d works while you're on a tf. Not ideal if it happens on a shard tf but really, how often is that going to happen unless you're for some reason only buying one charge at a time.

You could always just not kill towers or the flyer to add some extra difficulty. About half the teams I do it with don't even bother with the red tower anymore. The thread you mentioned would make me leery of the changes you mentioned since evidently casual teams are still having troubles. I wasn't aware of the crafting station thing but that bit definitely should be fixed. I didn't even know those worked in combat or drew aggro.

no twitches needed. just jetpack high up near one of the poles around the middle and keep taunting him. he'll run up the pole and try to hit you but most of his attacks can't. Repeat until the team's done with the towers. I've done it on an underleveled brute.

I just leave mine on chemical all the time on my poison/dp but having it for switching situationally is secondary. Getting out of the standard rounds is the main thing.

Hob & Loo was also a 90's point and click game starring two adorable gnomes.

From what i understand (Pine explained it to me a while back) it's because burn has an upfront damage tick then a pseudopet for the patch. Avalanche can proc on both in which case it stacks and converts to kb, i.e. >1.0 mag

Yeah back when i was still doing the converter game i'd list miracles for 3 and they'd routinely display bug themselves into 12-15 sales. I kinda felt bad about it but not our fault if folks just auto-bid the last displayed.

You sure you're not trying to drum up business Yomo? 😜 I always instantly get miracle unique for 5 million and random change if my 4 million bid fails.

If your concern is 'fair market value' you can always just bid creep. Most folks put things up for the minimum they're willing to get. If i had to arbitrarily guess at a starting bid that'd ensure profit for the seller i'd think 500k for crafted crap (converter fodder), 1 mil for crafted useful but not highly sought (tstrikes, gaussians, perf shifter, e.g.), 2 mil for sought after but not premium (resist or heal sets, e.g.), 3 mil for premium. (uniques, defense, e.g.). Purples, pvps, winters and ATOs the bid history is usually a good indicator. Note these could be higher than what you might get it for if you're patient or lucky or weren't concerned with being that guy who bids 1 inf. Then just creep til you get it if you want it now or leave a bid where you feel comfortable and wait.

For me kb to kd turned human only shade into one of my favorite characters. I absolutely hated khelds on live. Here's my build - it depends on defensive amplifier pretty heavily to stop mez as i went ageless instead of clarion. melee hybrid provides break free for when mez gets past that and my defenses. Fab and Mrs. Fish - Warshade (Umbral Blast).mxd

Can confirm on brute as well.

mine's been randomly shutting off since the last patch too. i initially thought i'd just taken it off to ghost and forgot but it's happened several times now that i'm positive i didn't turn it off.

it's hard to tell as it's a beast anyway but it certainly doesn't hurt. note that the build depends on defensive amplifier as I always use that instead of clarion Hunter S. Burroughs - Defender (Poison).mxd

And you're forgetting the market's effectively hardcapped against inflation by merit prices.

Just sell yours on the AH and rebuy the attuned version. It'll be cheaper even with the fees than the price of the catalyst. If you've got catalysts to burn beyond what you need for your ATO/Winters just sell them too. But I agree what you suggest would be nice. Really I'd love it if the entire enhancement combining interface was redone but it's obviously not a huge priority since even though it's slow and clunky it mostly works.

to your first point about 'certain purple sets' - that's what converters are for. as to your last bit - check your set bonuses in-game and you'll see that luck of the gambler's 7.5 is listed differently than any other 7.5. can have 5x of both.

They already provided a fantastic solution to the problem of having the right salvage when they bucketed it all together in the auction house. I keep a rack with the things i need for the recovery, recharge, and end drain resist base buffs i always run. Everything else gets vendored or ah'd. When I need other salvage I just buy it. I wouldn't go back to salvage hoarding if there were room for 1k/rack.

I have min-maxitis and altitis.

<goes to pull inf emails onto unused toons til we get a definite answer> yeah, i could make more, but since i don't really need inf anymore except to give away I'm not about to actively seek it ('actively' being in this case afk farming while i do other things). edit: went to do ^^^ and i have an inf email from 1/18. so if there is still a purge it's no longer the 60 days mentioned on paragonwiki. wiki also says there was a countdown system patched in to the original no warning purge. Guessing no countdown + email over 60 days = no purging on HC, but would still like to know officially.

My practice is to never bid so little that the person doesn't make more than they'd get vendoring it. I'm well aware they don't need the piddling amount, but principles. A correlate to that principle is i find it morally reprehensible to bid 1 inf, and I thus sell for 11, not to steal from players but only so the 1 inf bidders don't get it. after all what good are artificial principles in an artificial economy if you can't try to enforce them on others 😄

I personally don't care one way or the other as long as there's no redraw added.

And most of us vastly prefer this over the WoW rubbish. Every other MMO i've played i've wished for the double blind system from CoH.

Demonic's the only one i bother to get. I remembered to actually use it that one time.

Sounds like you're probably doing the slow assassin's strike as opener rather than using a different big hitter from hide and using the quick version of AS. Do you have the chance to hide ATO in AS? That coupled with the global chance to recharge build up ATO in something you use early will make you more better scrapper than worse. With full teams things die fast but with all the built up crits and rehides you'll be one of the reasons for that. Should be further details in this forum.

Do you really need more survivability out of the combo? I barely even bother with siphon life and generally only use energize at the beginning of big fights for the extra regen. There's so much extra to-hit debuff with the quick hits i don't know why you'd need to slot for it. Dead is still the game's best debuff.
