  1. Make Talos a hub for your movements and you're likely to encounter 1 or more of Malta's Kronos Titans. Two weeks ago, I was part of a league that tackled an outbreak of 20 of them. Also, make sure you have the Event Messages dialog (blood red text) in whatever chat tab you monitor. It will announce when GMs and events happen, with the exception of the unusual GM "Sally" of Croatoa, as stealth is all important to her.
  2. I'll simply add that Paladin can spawn without the construction project as well, and he'll still head for that spot. You can get a badge for this one, and if I recall correctly you won't if the one being constructed is active.
  3. What I've seen of Pedro onscreen I like, so understand that I'm not saying he's stupid but he's not the first name that comes to mind when I'm trying to think of actors who can pull off super-genius. Guess that makes this his chance to demostrate that he can act against type. I don't really know the other three. I kind of wish they'd found good actors who kind of look like brother and sister, but I guess that's the hair and makeup department's job. What I'm most concerned about is that this is attempt number...ahem...4...to bring the Fantastic Four to the screen, and as all the others were weak sauce, though to varying degrees. They desperately need a win this time. The muddle that was Phase...ahem...4 was such a mixed bag that I'm concerned about the F4 and Phase 5. Specific to the poster: Do the F4 now have a robot in the comics? That's a mildly interesting wrinkle. Is Reed Richards going to be the MCU's new go-to big brain now that Tony is gone and Shuri is likely too busy being Black Panther and queen? Mid-Century Modern furniture: is that a subtle reference to the year F4 premiered?
  4. What? The Titans? 😲
  5. So did you find something that accomplished that? Your team shots seem to imply "yes".
  6. At least it was a clean death.
  7. Yeah, I've been frustrated with that repeatedly. I'd very much like to see the next contact (Eagle Eye in this case), unlock and remain unlocked after I acquire the phone number of the first contact (Shauna). So if it takes extra levels, I could still do the second contact without having to run to Ouroboros to handle it. And, of course, have the contact I'm currently working with continue to level up with me until I clear all missions, but I realize that's very wishful thinking.
  8. Welcome! If the "glass cannon" is describing the "squid" form, it's kind of normal, though I suspect someone has posted in the archetypes section a build that will harden it. Have you made it to your "lobster" form yet? It's a good off-tank, and in some designs, a good tank. And switching forms is pretty quick, which is probably why KC4800 was suggesting relying on your "squid" form. The speedy conversions reminds me a bit of the druids from my WoW days.
  9. Ripley was wrong...there was another way to make sure.
  10. What guides in the selection of characters for the vid? Some seem obvious to record, others, not as obvious.
  11. That is only the second character I've seen to make good use of that aura. Well done.
  12. What's the name, Troo, and what server?
  13. You do realize the greatest one we'll never recall because it was erased from history, yes? At least, I think it was. All I have left is a polaroid with these slowly fading feet where people ought to be.
  14. That's reasonable. I was going to add Doc Savage as a hero mastermind, but his five "brothers" as well as his cousin Patricia are definitely in the allies camp as opposed to henchmen.
  15. Am I remembering correctly? Giant Monster have traditionally been vulnerable to police drones? I ask because I've recently observed some of the Malta Titans moving close enough to the police drones near the Talos Tram entrance that I was sure we'd lose them, but we didn't. It made me wonder if I'd forgotten they were invulnerable to drone teleportation, or if there'd been a change.
  16. Does no one else find it ironic that a guy named Monty Haull is asking what we have on hand?
  17. Choice paralysis? Never. I can only afford the low-quality stuff.
  18. I don't use Gmail, but I have heard rumor they have disposable email addresses. If so, this might prove a way to do it. That said, if they do have them, read setup carefully. Some disposable have a short life, some remain until you remove them. And there could be something between.
  19. That pairing does work very well. Of the handful of MMs I have, it's my favorite.
  20. I'm actually only posting ones that, generally speaking, cannot fight well alone. Mad Hatter, of course, uses mind control to gain minions. Joker definitely works with minions, but he's incredibly dangerous as a solo act as well. As is Two-Face, Bane, Magneto, Gorilla Grodd, etc. I suppose there's a reasonable argument to be made for Professor X being a mastermind over the X-men on the side of heroes, though like Magneto, he's very dangerous as a solo act as well.
  21. This one has been a tough wrangle: Vincent Poe, my young dark/dark corruptor. Early attempts produced dramatically wrong results. Even now, I'd say the system only understands about 80% of what I'm after, but at least it's keyed in thematically now. I've yet to get it to understand the concept of the white-faced goth look without it immediately adding a boatload of undesired extras to the look, and it seems to have no idea how to render a brass collar, so I had to leave those off, but these latter works were an improvement.
  22. I appreciate your enthusiasm, and I hope we don't squelch that. CoH: Homecoming exists as a volunteer effort, and that solely by the graces of NC Soft. We're allowed donations to keep the lights on, but the license doesn't allow for "a lot more $$$". It's volunteer work only. We violate that, we're likely to get the permit revoked and the game shut down. As to offering services, might I suggest starting with @Arcanum's post of January 17.
  23. Trying to remember if this is the one where she's with a priest and a rabbi.
  24. I absolutely hate Posi 1 for the endless possibilities for a single teammate to screw it up for everyone, whether innocently or deliberately. I've suffered both. That said, it now occurs to me that I might just want to run it at top setting with a team full of very experienced players using their level 50s decked out. (Yes, I know the game sets the level.) The finale fights might just be interesting for once.
