  1. Don't you have to say it three times, like Beetlejuice, Candyman, or Bloody Mary? @Jimmy, @Jimmy, @Jimmy! Let's see what happens now . . .
  2. While I am not a user or a fan of Twitch, having someone with a big following play the game a few times would probably bring a number of players. Or have Tom Holland play. Everyone loves Tom Holland.
  3. I was thinking of making a Dark Armor/DB tank to be a Sith!
  4. It's been that way since live. That's one of the things I use during the crash: taunt, dull pain, vet or temp powers.
  5. Ummm . . . because. When I was checking all of them serially I lost track of which server I had clicked.
  6. I used to have one in Foot Stomp long, long, ago. While the chances to proc are low on AoEs, each target has a chance to set it off. If you are footstomping in a crowd, you get the proc to go off most of the time. If you have a 1 in 5 chance to go off, but 10 targets, what are the odds that it will go off at least once. Don't ask me. I dropped Statistics in college and that was decades ago!
  7. While I mainly play on Excelsior, I have a few on other servers. I was just taking a look at who I had where and realized that I couldn't tell what server the character was on, other than remembering what server I clicked on.
  8. I ended up getting a 2 gig hard drive and a SATA to USB adapter. I put the new one in the machine and have the old one using the USB while I run a deep scan and recover with Disk Drill. It's taking forever but the program can start and stop (like when the machine sleeps or gets powered down) and pick up where it left off. It's recovered a bunch of files, but the bulk of them are ones I already had saved in the cloud. There are a few folders with docs that were not backed up or in the cloud and I'm hoping it will eventually recover them. I did look at a possible new computer but what I wanted was about twice as much as I wanted to spend. But I do appreciate all the info shared.
  9. So many Things!
  10. Icon haz a thing?
  11. SPOILERS!!! Let the wild conspiracy theories begin!
  12. That Sybil looks kinda shady.
  13. I could totally see bowling ball melee and/or bowling ball blast as a power-set. Make it so!
  14. Oh, we were supposed to report level 30? I'm up to level 44 and chugging along on Cosmic Flea, Dark Melee/Energy Aura Brute. I was able to do +1/x8 from about level 25 on and it's only getting better.
  15. I think he was going with the cones theme, as all those breath attacks are cones. I had a Staff/Bio Brute on live (named BioStic Flea, 'natch) that I liked a lot, even though he wasn't a monster damage dealer. It was fun messing with the six different stances to figure out what worked in different circumstances. Like you, I ended up staying in Offensive/Mind most of the time, but leveling up I did use the defensive or endurance efficient modes.
  16. Thanks! I was looking at the icons on the right side of the screen and completely missed the ones on the left. Even worse, I completely glossed over the typed section "Notes: Arc of Destruction is unaffected by arc changes. I hear you on TW. It may indeed be the king of cones of melee attacks regardless of gauntlet. But the particular thing I am chasing now is the set that has the most cones that ARE effected by gauntlet bonus. Looking at the red exclamation icons, it seems that Dual Blades and Staff keep the arc modifier. Too bad I can't do Shield with either of those. So next question: What Primary benefits the most from gauntlet? I think it's Bio, Dark, Fire, and Rad as they each have a few PBAoEs.
  17. A discussion Ukase started about the cone attack, Frost, made me think about tanks and cones and the benefit they get from the new and improved Gauntlet. So what combos would benefit the most? Titan Weapons is the only set with three cones so that would be my initial choice except that I vaguely remember that TW or some of its attacks were excluded. I tried to seek guidance from Uberguy's CoD, but I didn't find it. After that, Claws, Dual Blades, Spines and Staff each have two. Leviathan Mastery has three! And then Fighting and Force of Will have one more each for a total of 7, or 8 with TW. What would you guys make to be a king of cones? Bonus points for adding a Mids build, but I'm happy just talking about it.
  18. As you said: So assume, for the sake of argument, that at base your attack will hit anything between the center point at the bottom of your illustration to somewhere halfway between that point and the semi-circles marked 45 degrees. That's not a lot of ground covered. But improving it by 50% to get to the 45 degree line and you get MORE than 50% more ground covered because it is expanding as it travels out. So I think that you are correct in concept but maybe need a bot more +range or a slight adjustment before firing to hit the most possible. PS - I had a thought that you might be able to do some practicing on the RWZ dummies to get a feel for the range and the angle. Or use one of those neat Aeon temp power dummies, if you have one.
  19. Question: Can a writer make a misogynistic, patriarchal, conceited, sociopath? If so, then what's the problem? If not, why not?
  20. 11-15-25 = Brute, dark melee/energy aura Hmmm . . . That sounds like a decent pairing and one I haven't played before. While I do have a bunch of dark melee, I only have a couple of energy aura. Strong defense and light resist backed by -tohit, two heals, some regen, and endurance for days. I came up with a build: And thus was born: COSMIC FLEA! Strange alien powered by Dark Energy.
  21. Not GASPR? My initial thought was a rad/dark melee tank. The aura and ground zero do -def, 2 heals, 3 end recovery, and soul drain for tohit. Yes, I know that soul drain needs to hit, but if used in a crowd chances are you'll hit at least a couple of critters.
