Oh! I had a thought. Load up on some team inspirations and neutralize those Nazis with extreme prejudice! Some mez resistance and defense and your pets will eat them up!

Yes, I am. I am one of the few people against the proposal in the thread. Again, did anyone name me? No, absolutely not. Were those statements directed at me and a few other detractors? Yes, absolutely. But this is just becoming an argument over an argument. So I'll leave it at that before Googly or Crumpet close the thread. Enjoy your weekend.

No post contained the quote above, but both yours and Oklahoman's sure implied it.

I don't appreciate being called "sus" by Oklahoman and Peregrine Falcon. I'm just stating my preferences like you are stating yours. There's no need to cast aspersions. And I expected better from both of you.

Yeah, what Greycat said. Players can currently make a chat macro that can append their global to their chats if they wish to be known. I don't think an option where others can decide whether MY global is shown or not works for me or for and probably no for anyone that likes to be even slightly anonymous for whatever reason.

While Kaizen doesn't need me to speak for him, I'm going to anyway. 😛 He has spent A LOT of time on the test server and creating a parser to help evaluate powers. He's too busy to make inf! And he works really hard to find bugs before they make it to the live game.

No, thank you. I would not like this.

That would be REALLY nice, except I don't think the code will let us do it. Anytime they have messed with slots and levels the game has violently rebelled.

Yeah, that makes total sense. World of Pain gives you (and pets) +tohit +dam and +resist, and Enforced Morale gives perception and mez protection but not KB protection. So I can see you cruising through Arachnos but having problems with new Council. As you say, incarnates will fix that for you. But I understand the frustration.

I argued during beta that they should not change Council and CoT. I did not and do not want changes to the existing base game but absolutely want new challenging content like they made with the new hard mode stuff. Others thought differently, including the devs. However, now that it's been in game for a bit, I find it more of a speed bump than a wall. It's a bit slower and inconvenient, but I can still get past it easy enough. I hope you don't take this the wrong way, but what AT and powersets are you having a hard time with Council x8. It may be that new Council is particularly strong against what you are bringing. For example, SR laughs at Malta sappers, but resistance armor melees better take them out fast or risk being left naked.

You're against a proposal that will not effect you at all and want to toss more work at volunteer GMs? Of course, you should report players that are misbehaving but there's also nothing wrong with players not associating with other players that are misbehaving. That's what the rating system, the kick button, and the /ignore feature are for.

I have way too many to play them all everyday and I keep making more. Hello, my name is Bionic Flea and I'm an altoholic (New Flea name!) But I do log them all in periodically to either play them or at least move day jobs, pick up sales & purchases, and put down some new sales. So under the announced policy I would be covered as a 50, but I would also be covered by using them every few months or so.

Nope. They are all "______ic Flea", ie. Bionic, Atomic, Chaotic, Strategic, etc.,

There's an emoji, so I guess this was a joke. But I am not name camping anything. I make a new character, play it to 50 +3, and then make a new one and repeat. Lots of Fleas. So I don't know who is name camping. I don't think it's cool for people to make a bunch of level 1s to camp the name. But I also don't like any of the suggestions made to fix that more than the Dev's proposed change.

I don't like what they've done with that either. *shrug*

I also don't want to see Bionic Flea(@Zacking) or Bionic Flea(@Snarky) either! And that is exactly the point of this suggestion. So that everyone can be Bionic Flea if they wanted to. No thanks. There's only one me.

Sorry, but I don't want to have all my names wiped and I don't want to be Bionic Flea@Bionicflea.

(A Flea, laughing.)

In my experience, there are two basic ways: 1) Carefully -- Pull, stay at range, strafe, use defensive inspirations and temp powers. 2) With reckless abandon! -- Load up on red inspirations, Aim+Build up and blow your enemies to smithereens before they know you are even there.

I know this much is . . . TROOoo

I want to feel effective AND be effective. But there are certainly sets, or set combos more appropriately, that are set and forget and you feel like you aren't doing anything. For example, Bots/FF is pretty effective as long as you aren't at +4. But it's boring, summon, buff, take a nap. But Bots/Traps or Bots/Electric are just as effective but a lot more active. I've recently leveled an Elec/Elec defender and that is approaching too busy. Fun, but I have to pay attention.

I'm not seeing a problem with a Warburg Nuke animation as an incarnate power. Think of it like Gravity's Propel power - you just pulled a nuke from somewhere and tossed it at your enemies. Or Marvel's Magneto doing the same via magnetism. A little creative thinking can make just about anything work.

Which one of you is secretly my baby-daddy (or baby-momma)?

Welcome back Your dreams were your ticket out Welcome back To that same old place that you laughed about Well, the names have all changed Since you hung around But those dreams have remained And they've turned around Who'd have thought they'd lead you (Who'd have thought they'd lead you) Back here where we need you? (Back here where we need you?) * * * And I know what a scene You were learnin' in Was there somethin' that Made you come back again?
