Ridiculous Girl

i was just going to report this... it looks like just a copy of the text from the trick arrow version, which is a location AOE. 🙂

i think you are safe because it is not copy of an existing character, you took a freely available name of an EB of the paragon heroes group. in fact you may encounter her in the spring wedding event. *confirmed, i saw Arc Flash in the spring wedding mission* 🙂 this list is of AV/Heroes/GM class names... ones that should be blocked from the player base. i left out EB class, because they are probably more numerous. in fact someone has already taken at least one AV name from my list due to the name release policy. i am using names of NPCs, base items, and salvage, i think i am safe with those too... 😄

truthfully, i found it funny. /altinvite is for only your alts on your account. you tried to invite a name that was already in use by another character, hence the response. if you had invited someone that did not exist you would have gotten the message... this was meant to be humourous, because often there are players that have multiple accounts and try to invite an alt from another account, either on purpose or accident. hence the response... so, please, they were not being offensive, just trying to be light hearted for a common error. 🙂

you can add to the list.. AV: Dreck 😁

i had a bit of a problem in the final mission of twinshot's 2nd arc, but i am pretty that when proton and flamebeau got defeated that they did not mean to betray me to the enemy... 😄

i was not really sure where to place this bug, but i have a tips mission objective that is one sided... Server: Excelsior Zone/Mission: Sewers_45_Layout_03_01 Position: [44.2 -66.5 566.0]

i went and looked for myself... it is not that the map is wrong it is just that those LTs have a minimum level of 35. someone has picked that only those LTs will spawn there. looking around the zone, those were the only LT class i could find there. it is not a map problem but a mob assignment problem. 🙂

that is the vidiot maps add-on, not in game... in game looks like this. 🙂

it helps to have a screen shot, or specifically the costumes pieces with details. ie gender, upper, lower/legs, tails, etc.. just go to icon and open the costume editor and take screenshots. you do not have to pay anything, just switch between costumes. 🙂

someone mentioned that the dominator phantom army does not taunt like the controller version, but when i looked i saw that the power description detailed info is incorrect. it is exactly the same as the controller version. it says "+500%% threat level" when it should read "-100%% threat level". 🙂 troller version dom version the character creator gives the correct info, according to CoD

first mission of the dean macarthur arc, ajax and me, with my lvl 23 merc MM. cleared everything and came to the vault door, set all attack order, everyone attacked the door, with exception of the spec op. even when i gave a direct order, he never attacked. he just stood around. he was summarily executed and replaced. 😄

it helps to type /whereami to get more detail to submit, specifically in this case, the exact map name. 🙂

homework! 😁

i fixed the typo!!!! 😄 transcendant(!) merit, you can exchange empy merits, 50 to 1, at a merit vendor

just FYI, if you did not know, you can trade empyrean merits between your alts, and the fastest way to do that is exchange them for a transcendant merit, 50 to 1. i keep one or two in my mail, for my alts that need some extras at the early levels. later they can send them back... with interest! they work for me! not the other way around! 😁

i am euro-side but on excelsior, which is the highest population server. the high pop hours are unstuck from euro-time, but picks up later. if you have a lot of questions you should either post them on the general discussion forum or a specific forum thread. or ask in general chat on which ever server. there usually is omeone willing to help at any hour. 🙂

normal enhancements (training, double, and single origins also known as TOs, DOs, and SOs) you can upgrade in the enhancement/ manage screen. then clicking on the enc you can combine it with the like enc. if they are the same level they have a 100% chance of combining to the +1 the highest that you are combining. converting is for Invention Origin (IOs) enhancements. that is a whole other affair.

not sure what this is supposed to be but i am pretty sure it is in error in Mask Presence, 100.00%% Attr(null) (i think it's supposed to be Threat Level)

this may be a hot take... 😅 we need to be able to make notes for hidden players. (notes, if you do not know, are an individual player's personal notes of other players and are saved on your hard drive and no way impact another player directly) i keep notes on other players, because: 1) i have a terrible memory 2) it helps me keep track of good and bad players. my system is simple... everyone that gives me a good impression gets 3 stars and a note. formed a DFB? 3 stars and note. helpful enough on help channel that i notice? 3 stars and a note. give me a bad impression, like trolling, talking politics, bad behavior on teams? you get a 1 star and a note, and probably ignored too. farmers/LFFers that regularly spam LFG, that get my attention because it is often enough? they get 2 stars and a note. but anyone that gets a note and stars, they can go up and down, given future interactions, etc.. if someone moves up to 4 stars or more, i generally make friends with them. i also enable player ratings, to be able to see who i have made notes on, seeing their star rating when i am out of my tree or teamed up. but... sometimes i encounter misbehaving players that are hidden. when i pull up their note, it only shows their local name, and the note is not saved under their global name, as far as i can tell. this means that they can act sort of anonymously, but not really. i can get their global account name, it's listed on the global tab when i pull up their note. they're hidden, but not hidden. they are just immune to having someone like me making note of them and their behavior and linking it to other alts, while hidden or not. these misbehaving players are probably hidden because they know they are trolling and wish to do it anonymously. but they are not anonymous, i can see their global easily. i just can't link them to other alts that they have. so i am faced with a choice; ignore them globally, report them, or let it go. i don't like ignoring someone without having a good reason, and sometimes it's not enough reason to ignore them on first impression. often it's not enough reason to report them either. but letting it go lets this person get away with questionable behavior too. that is why i like having notes, because then i can see if there is repeating bad behavior by this player. everyone can have a bad day, but if they are a repeat offender, i want to know so i can either avoid teaming with them or ignore them globally. i understand why people want to be hidden, and maybe this is a hot take and controversial, but if they are speaking on the help or general channels and/or not behaving in a player friendly manner, i want to be able to make note of them. they are not anonymous, but misbehaving players can act anonymously. TL;DR version: hidden players are not hidden but can be anonymous since notes do not work globally with them. please change that. 🙂

ha ha ha! no...

the OG Ridiculous Girl on live was a fire 3x blaster... her theme song was... 😄

you use boosters to "boost" un-attuned enhancements, to increase their effectiveness. copied from the HC wiki what you were trying to boost, though it is not exactly specifiied, is clearly a proc, an enhancement which has an effect that is fixed in value. it is unmodifiable. therefore you cannot boost it. even if you could boost it, it would be a waste of your influence, because it would not change the proc value, nor the set bonuses. NOTE: you can create a boosted proc, by converting a boosted enhancement to a boosted proc. but it has no effect and does nothing for you, except waste your resources. i hope that helps. 🙂

are you using a macro? or just the slash command?

well, you did not boost that proc, because you are not able to do that in the enhancement manage screen. but apparently you can convert in-set and get a proc like that that should not exist, which i had never tried before but confirmed that it works. i was curious as to whether that proc actually works now, but in trying with a UG 7.5% max health enc, that one works as it should. so it probably works as it should. i would say that is some ancient relic from way long ago, when SOs had a max level 53 and you could only place something +3 to your currently level. since +5 boosted enc is functioning as a lvl 55 enc, this pops up. very cool and interesting to see. 😄 you can't really do anything with it, since it does nothing for the enc. better off converting it to another and using that. 🙂
