They won't show the stats because then everyone would know that all of the sets they've created (Seismic blast, Symphony control, etc.) are rarely played above level 20 or so.
I'm kidding! Settle down.

If "Models" includes power customization, then using the "Mirror" setting from Illusion would get my vote, so you could summon 6 increasingly more powerful versions of yourself.

Yeah, sometimes its dancing with the host, and sometimes you pick a literal Serial Killer.

I think the only CoH Discord I'm still subbed to is CAKE because sometimes I like reading about the crazy modifications they make to the game...but I haven't actually used Discord for anything since the last time I ran a Masks campaign.

Not to mention Tactics does not even protect against -Tohit. All it does is add a buffer that gets whittled down each time a -ToHit lands. Same as having a buff AT throwing a +defense shield and then we fight something like the romans who gleefully debuff defense with each time. Even 8 persons with Maneuvers (roughly 28% defense) would not stop catastrophic cascade failures.
Stacking Tactics is a full team tactic, but the truth is that in full teams the -tohit or even the -defense is not as problematic as it is for a soloer. Did the tank get its accuracy debuffed to oblivion? So what, the other 7 are raining nukes and AoEs.
But is that same tank solo? Now it is unable to hurt the enemies other than the small window where BU + Gaussian is active.
There are ways around this. Focused Accuracy as mentioned (Tsoo Sorc hurricanes, CoT big ghost -ToHit aura), sometimes counter-intuitively a few purples if the debuffs are carried in hits (CoT ghosts, Vampyr, etc).
I haven't found yellows that useful because they are not useful in normal play so who is going to carry several of them for the niche moment of being ToHit debuffed?
Radical notion: maybe players shouldn't be able to play +3/8 solo against everything. If the tank has to turn down the difficulty against certain groups to +1/2 is that a bad thing? Again, I'd argue that it would be good if everyone had to turn the difficulty down on everything, but as it stands it's one group of enemies that's the complaint - even the buffed Council is still manageable solo at high difficulties.
IMO if people don't like it, they should just go back to the AE building.

but what you're wishing for would be making us all do a cookie-cutter build, wouldn't it?
I literally said only half the team needed to do it. I don't think asking a few Defense based melees to cut out either Combat Jumping or Hover (Since they're kind of redundant except for the +Def) and replace it with tactics (especially when they're already taking maneuvers) is making everyone a cookie cutter build, in fact quite the opposite.
The Devs should make more use at more levels across enemy groups that make people either turn down the difficulty, build for a team or both. Not just in "advanced modes" either, but throughout the regular content. +0/1 can stay as it is, no solo bosses or AV's is fine (Hell I'd be fine if they wanted to turn Solo AV's in TF's into EB's - I'm not against solo playing ) but I'm in the camp that thinks +4/8 should wreck everything but a well run team, Speed running endgame content (Aeon, MLTF, LRSF) should be literally impossible, and no character should be able to solo above +1/3 at most - and don't even get me started on how characters are so powerful that you can just literally ignore the Hami Raid's mechanics and burn him down 5 times in a row every night. IMO everything else needs the difficulty turned up - Even with difficulty sliders, right now 99% of this game is about as challenging as kicking babies.

People need to start taking Leadership/tactics. Stacked tactics would solve the -to hit, the confuse and the terrorize. I take Assault/Maneuvers/tactics on almost every character, because there's no reason not to. Unfortunately a lot of people follow build guides meant for farming or soloing +4/8.
People will say "builds are tight" but no, they're not. Builds were tight when you HAD to use up 3 powers to get stamina and two of those powers were only marginally useful. With inherent fitness, there's no reason for people not to replace those 3 powers with the leadership pool...again, unless they're building for farming/soloing/speedrunning.
So yeah, if you've got a "team" of farmers/soloers/speedrunners you're going to have problems. If even half the team has made an effort to put team powers into their build, it will be much less of a problem.
Personally I wish they'd give every enemy group a slight makeover that made fitting team powers into your build more useful.

There's no more reason to identify as red or blue. Just be a shade of gray.
Even with their long cooldowns, the red side power is very helpful for Doms and Stalkers, especially for Doms before they get get permadom. The Blue side power is excellent for MM's.

The Unity Plague (30 - 34) if you haven't done it. It sends you to all of the zones and their signature contacts, like a nostalgia tour.

Ouro doesn't give +rech. Per the HC Wiki, Ourobouros gives a recipe bonus for mission completion.
I believe you're thinking of the PvP day job.No, Time Lord. The accolade that you get if you have Oro and Cim day jobs. It gives +Rech if you log in either Cim or Oro, in addition to the normal bonus for that zone.
-
Same thing is happening on my MM, and I'm NOT running it through Oro. Mission is straight up bugged.
Oh, and this is one that's had its entry moved to the new section of the RWZ.

I farmed him on 3 characters for roughly 1000 kills total so far, got one recipe drop.
Have done Adam twice since the patch dropped, got the recipe both times.
Random is random.
-
Time Lord, log out in Ouro for the +rech. It's useful especially on alts that I don't log into except to do the WST, because they generally have the 10% rech for the whole time.

Alignment tips and Valentines event tips can no longer be replaced when your tips are full. We may revisit this in the future depending on plans for use of the tip system in upcoming content.

Exploration (Tour Guide) tips still have this functionality enabled and will auto-dismiss the oldest tip, but this is subject to the limitations of these tips dropping. Particularly that they do not drop if you already have a tour guide tip for the current zone.
Thank you for doing this.

Is this the default or are we going to have to go change this back on every character? Hopefully the former, because the change should be the option, not the default. It's not nice to inconvenience your long time supporters to please the relatively few people who come in expecting a different control scheme, and if they're willing to play an older game, they should be willing to poke around the options to get it to play how they want, rather than having people who are used to a certain control scheme have to change it back on 50 characters.

coordinating multiple Synapse runs to spawn multiple Babbages simultaneously
I believe only the zone version of Babbage drops the rewards that are at issue (The Monstrous Aether) So Synapse Babbage shouldn't be an issue now if he wasn't before.

Motorcars are a fad, nothing will replace the horse and buggy. Those calculators are never going to replace the slide rule. Computers are as big as a house, never gonna fit one in every house. Technology will never improve or surpass the limitations of my personal experiences, biases and limitations.

On Excelsior, the 5pm Central daily raid in The Abyss tends to squeeze in 5-6 runs because @Laucianna does however many she can within a 30 minute window.
30 minutes my arse, if you aren't logged in to the abyss by at least 5:30, and often earlier than that, you aren't getting in because people fill the zone with their alts so the zone is filled by that time. So add at least 35 extra minutes.
And yes "Dual Boxing is not permitted in the Abyss" but since the GM's don't actually go in and clear them out and administer a consequence, the practice continues.

Besides that the whole tip overwriting thing is kind of pointless in the first place, can I at least turn off the constant notifications?

Going into RV requires being level 40. The post was made in relation to the character being fresh-off-the-bus needing a quick buck.
IDK what out of date wiki you've been reading or other server you've been on, but on HC this is not the case.

So we ONLY had white actors in the 50s and 60s, right?
Who's "We"? I wasn't even born.
And also, yes, everyone knows that the practice of blackface/yellowface/whateverface was prevalent in the past. So was slavery, of all peoples. Society grows and evolve as time moves on. Saying that because things that happened 30, 40, 50, 60 years ago somehow means that practice is still going on and somehow justifies the continuation of that practice, as long as it's other races that are being swapped is just you being deliberately obtuse.
And of course there's the old saw "Two wrongs don't make a right."

Chris Jenkins, some sources claim he's the grandson of Maria Jenkins, she of the Heroes Hero/Heroes Epic arc. What their relationship is to Leroy, one can only speculate.
