Mr. Vee

Please no. The market was already one of the most perfect things about coh and the fungibility has only made it better. If I want to see prices I can always go back to other MMOs where the lack of double blind annoyed me to no end.

This x1000. I wish I could remember where on the old forums a similar discussion was where someone had run the numbers and it turned out that, strange as it might sound, slotting endurance reduction is actually worse for your endurance usage until a certain point (i.e. later when you have slots to spare that aren't committed to more important things). Your best bet is damage in the attacks with end mod in stamina and the aforementioned procs if you have space, then end reduction in attacks, then if still having problems, in your toggles (though i find all you need for defense toggles is to use the /end reduction piece of whatever set you end up putting there once you're at IO level).

Curious. Why is a "bit much to ask" that a person be able to do it in such a short period of time? I'm not being combative. I'm really trying to understand the mentality that "X is too fast, and should be eliminated." I'll qualify my question here: PVP, I get your point. That's competitive. But for a co-operative game that also allows solo play with built-in mission difficulty sliders so you can effectively solo content meant for full teams if you can build for that......and there's no financial reward for anyone for keeping the player base moving slowly or at least all at the same speed/pace..... Why is this a bit much to ask for? Because there needs to be at least a minimum required effort put in for things or all the people who don't just casually play low level stuff will get bored. They could just make everything completely free but when you just push the button to get a food pellet you quit running the maze and eventually your stomach explodes. If this were any other game than coh where altitis is the true endgame players who play a lot would already be getting bored at the accelerated growth rates available now. Note that I'm the last to be calling for nerfs or saying you should play a certain way. All I'm saying is that the across the board merit increase you originally asked for has a) already happened and b) is unnecessary given how many orders easier it is to level and io characters now. I fully decked out a character last night, superior, purples, everything attuned, all at but it nao pricing and it cost me about what a crafted apocalypse would have cost pre-shutdown. I didn't even have to use my stockpiled merits. And I've been playing a fraction time per day I did on live. There's nothing keeping you from what you're asking for with the way it is right now.

You can still casually play and get a top build, and you can do it faster now than ever before. But it's a bit much to ask that you be able to do it in the short time these servers have been running.

Merits have been increased pretty much across the board. All those 1&2 merit arcs in Praetoria are mostly 9 now. Old posi and sister p in ouro are back to their original numbers. I've noticed various other arcs that are more fairly compensated now. Plus the merit costs of things have been greatly reduced, which amounts to a huge boost across the board.

I made a full purpled/superiored ATO and winter/all attuned build last night, all buy it nao, leaving my 600+ merits untouched cuz screw crafting. And it was so much nicer my altoholic self will never go back to the miserly way. Enjoy your spoils and give those moustaches a twist for me.

They only show what you're eligible to use.

Lotg are so cheap now you're better off using merits on a brute ATO or one of the pricier winter enhancements, selling, then buying lotg off the market. You can then just buy your lotgs crafted and attuned too, which would save the salvage and crafting costs.

Uncommon the name text will be yellow, rare orange.

Looks right, between the crates, though that was always one of the tougher ones to find with cw blasting you the whole time. Do yourself a favor and dl https://sourceforge.net/projects/vidiotmaps/ and unzip it in your coh folder. This won't be the last time you need it.

Sure there is, the aforementioned Ragnarok set.

Protip - If you search them with a cap of level 10 on the market only the attuned ones will show. They definitely exist and shouldn't cost much, especially the numina. I'd save my merits for more expensive stuff. Also I don't know if the alignment merit vendors still have anything, as those aren't awarded anymore and only still exist to make it easier to send merits to alts.

Can confirm the invader contact in NW corner of port oaks and it is glorious. The doors all spawn in PO too. I had the required badge on a toon without even knowing just from running the mayhems while leveling and an lrsf.

Keep at the market for cash and you'll have a big pile of merits when you hit fifty to buy the more expensive enhancements.

I'd second the brute because claws works so well on brute, but I found invulnerable to be pretty bad on brute, so idk. As to side, doesn't matter. Just send money from an alt for utility powers at the p2w (you're doing this anyway, right?) and use your new pocket d teleporter to get to null the gull to change to rogue or vidge.

Yeah when I said I'd had no problems I meant it was no more annoying than on live. But how to deal with this is one of the things I actually remembered.

I could have sworn that you could spawn scrappy by killing a ton of miners but paragonwiki didn't mention it and I don't trust my memory.

Ragnarok 5 piece. Leave out the pure damage one and you have a sixth slot for endurance something or for another power. It's not like purples are cost prohibitive anymore. Isn't there a decent newer taoe as well? I'm on mobile so can't check. As far as the OP some sets could definitely use some help, especially with endurance, but with two ato sets, the winter sets, overwhelming force and purple options available now it's much better than on live.

I think they were a set price item in the market. Now they're under temp powers at the p2w vendor.

Better hurry, they just announced it's going to be 30 van merits to 1 merit in next patch.

https://forums.homecomingservers.com/index.php/topic,1755.msg19733.html#msg19733 has some stuff. the mish you want is in maria jenkins' av arc. she should automatically unlock at 45. you'll need to do the full arc in ouro to get portal jockey if you keep the warrior farm though. the old version in ouro is easier anyway - don't have the newer praetorian mobs to annoy you.

That's true. But there are probably those who'd have no other reason to have it who might already have format factory installed. Options are nice.

well yeah, think i said that :P btw for those who don't want to dl audacity format factory will convert to ogg.

Seems to be a minor bug with the 2xp booster where if you die and debt payback finishes while you're dead you get regular exp/inf until you rez. Not a big deal if you're just waiting for a mob to be cleared off your corpse but if you're one of those dirty pl soakers and get killed it'd make a significant difference if you're in your 40s and it happens early in the mission.

Thanks for this. Now my glowies play 'Peg' by Steely Dan. because oh hell yes Peg! think i need to cut it down a bit though unless someone knows how to make the glowie start at random points. I usually find the glowie before the chorus which is really the part i think most fits with glowie hunting.
