Mind showing me where this is true? I see no evidence of this literally anywhere.

Just some food for thought here. Raids used to be done with just SO's. Hammi Raid was long before IOs and if memory serves, the Statesman's Task Force (AKA Ms. Liberty Task Force) was also before IO's. The thing is, teams used to play differently, very differently. Blasters did not run off on their own and clear maps, if a Blaster so much as got out of line, that blaster would face smash on the pavement and have half the team yelling at him. Healers were actually needed and sought out, team structure was important as far as building a balanced team and everyone knowing how to play their part. Buffers and Healers made up for the lack of IOs in those days. So in that sense, the game was still balanced around SO's, people just played far differently.

It has been completed and Michiyo has done the honors of uploading it for me to the Modder Tool. Enjoy. 🙂

Sorry, missed this. Question: What level of performance do I believe is necessary before a set is considered "good" or even "acceptable?" Answer: To be on par with literally all other sets. Regeneration is not on par, not even remotely close. Regeneration got left way behind a very long time ago.

Look, all I am saying is that Regen has absolutely nothing to back up on. I can solo +4 x8 Arachnos on my Elec/EM Tank. They melt my capped Defense on him, but what I have to back up on is my Resists that have plenty of RDR and my Regen that isn't much, but it is just enough to help get HP back that I lose after losing my Defense. I also have practical -Endurance/-Recovery immunity, so those Mu Sappers don't drop all of my toggles and leave me without Endurance. And this is by far not the best set in game, it is just a set that is self sufficient, meaning it doesn't depend on mobs being stacked on me to survive, doesn't require other players to play nice for me to survive. Regen on the other hand has absolutely no leg to stand on, man...none. Outside of Smashing/Lethal Damage, it cannot survive without having other players stack shields and +Endurance abilities on you. To me, Standard is what everything else can do, that you cannot. And Regen simply cannot do what...well...anything else can do. And look, it was once my favorite set of all time...so it is really hard for me to dump on it like this, it's not easy at all...it down right hurts my feelings to dump on Regen the way I do. I want to see it get better, but as long as people keep claiming that, "Regen is fine as is" that will never happen. I simply can't let people proclaim to me that the set is fine as is when I know better. 😞

Nope. Also not buying that you are running +4 x8 mobs solo either, especially not Arachnos. Sorry, Psi-bolt, I know better than that. No Psi Resist, not much Toxic Resist to speak of, they cream your Defense and Resistances and you have absolutely no DDR or RDR to speak of, it doesn't matter how high your resistance is or Defense is when up against mobs that have -Defense or -Resistance abilities. They will drop your Defense and Resistance to the negatives so fast your head will spin and since you also don't have much -Regeneration Resistance, it wouldn't take much to bring your character to its knees....not to mention you have zero Resistance to Endurance and Recovery Debuffs. I mean, what are you claiming here, that you can solo +4 x8 Council Mobs? Sure, okay, who can't? That is not proving anything. Sorry, Psi-bolt, I get your enthusiasm and your nostalgia toward the set, but it is not the set you are claiming it to be.

Pretty much. I mean, you can eventually make it worth something with IO's, however, it will never stack up to literally any other powerset in game. It does perform rather well in 1v1 PvP though, so then there is that. But honestly, PvP is dead in this game, it has been dead ever since the Diminishing Returns nerf. The best PvPers this game has ever seen left this game a very long time ago due to the nerfs. You have a few players of today that PvP, but it's a very small circle of players and what they are PvPing with in this game is a husk of what it once was....so not sure how much time I would waste with that...if any.

My man, I just tried to have this conversation and for reasons far beyond my comprehension, there are some posters here who think the set is just fine and dandy despite what the rest of us know to be true...the set is trash, it has been trash since issue 5 and will continue to be for the duration of this game. Why is that? Because Regeneration is just one of those sets that will never be fixed until literally nobody is left riding the "Regeneration is fine" train; meaning, there cannot be a single player who thinks it is fine, otherwise a fix to the set will never happen. It is the red headed stepchild of sets, most likely due to the way it performed pre i5, and it left a bad taste in people's mouths...except for the players who loved it. So in short answer, the set is what it is and it will very highly likely remain as is.

After reading this, it's time for me to get....

Join one of my teams, I want to yell at you too!

And still miss the guy.

I seem to recall this power having -knock back in it at one time in the way way way far back years of the set. I could be wrong, but even theme wise, it just doesn't make any sense for the set to not have -knock back in it. So why was it removed? If it was not removed, and I am just remembering wrongly, then why does it not have it? As of right now, it is the only reason I won't play the set. I locked down my mobs and then over and over again watched them get scattered by knock back...so I checked the stats on it, seen it did not have -knock back in the immobilize power and trashed the character. So what is going on with this set?

Just a little something something, still in early stages, only 4 powers affected so far. Long way to go, nothing set in stone so don't get your hopes up or down, but...

On second thought, it shouldn't matter, I have the file name, it doesn't matter which CoH Folder it is in, heh. Sorry, I was insanely sleepy last night, so wasn't running on all cylinders, lol

So the only ones I am finding are the ones that do not have "Male" in the name. I made a test mod and found that two are being used for each attack. I hear my mod, but the other one that I am unable to find are still playing over top of it. you all are still using the original game files, yes? I checked in all the folders I could find containing pigg files and no luck finding the files listed with the "Male" in the file names. 😞

I just want to add, because of that (even though it is hardly an effective way of killing anything) we now have the travel power suppression. Before that we could move instantly after attacking.

Just found them, thank you. For the life of me I somehow thought that the sounds used for Symphony Control was a unique sound only to the set, which is why I overlooked TOV as a possible option to search through. While searching, I just seen TOV and skipped right past all of those. This helped greatly, tyvm! Symphony Orchestra Mod will soon be on the way. 🙂

I will check them out when I finish this Task Force, tyvm, @Michiyo!

Thank you soooooo very much!

Well, first thing is first, I have to locate those files and I am usually very good at it.Unfortunately I am almost convinced those sounds are client side though. I can't find them anywhere.

Well, that was my plan, but....if I can't locate the files, that won't be happening, lol.

Yeah, it's working now, but it was not working when my wife and I first logged in. I figured that out when I tried to form a team and nothing showed up in LFG chat. So not sure what was going on, but it's working now.

Okay, now it seems to be working, but before however it was not. Server hiccup maybe?

Just logged in and it would seem that LFG chat is not working for me nor my wife....anyone else having this issue?
