Maybe I am being dense, but that doesn't make sense to me. You can always go to Windows Settings to add or delete a program and then go to MidsReborn.com to download it again. I assume other OS's have similar capabilities.

Claiming a single inspiration, or even a few to get over a difficult hump is probably not a big deal. But being able to have an essentially unlimited supply of the very best Super-duper inspirations, such that one can solo the Ms. Liberty TF in 30 minutes? . . . Yeah, that sounds broken to me. I wouldn't want to lose the ability to claim a couple of inspirations from e-mails now and then and I really don't care if Elmyder or anyone else can solo Hamidon, or whatever, by using e-mailed inspirations. But I have to admit that being able to do that is a little wacky.

I think you should call him TIME TO ROCK! And look more like this:

I had a similar issue, though not as severe. All my enhancement slots were moved to the left by about one slot. I tried to figure out a way to fix it and couldn't. Ultimately I went to the Mids Discord and was advised to unintstall and reinstall and that worked. Even better, it took less then a couple of minutes -- not painful at all.

[Farsight] and [Mind Link] would be good candidates as well. Back to the OP, I think there are many ATs and combos that can solo Recluse and Ms. Liberty depending on how you play them. But I agree with others that it's probably not worth the hassle or expense of making something just to get HOs solo. Just listen for others running those, ASF, and Hammy raids and/or start your own. Protip: If you are going to run them, try to run them back to back and include the ASF without the extreme challenge levels. You should be able to get 3 HOs in 60-90 minutes. Finally, regarding inspirations, I think that the standard 20 or less you can carry are fine and that e-mail is an exploit that doesn't need to be fixed. I'm not competing with anyone but the game and myself (as opposed to PvPers or Speed Runners) and while I generally don't use e-mail inspirations, I have definitely used them on several occasions to get a rez or whatever was needed to finish a mission after hitting a hard spot.

Attuned IOs can convert within the entire range of that specific set, so you have a lot more possible results. If you are trying to get attuned Basilisk to slot I would suggest straight up buying it from /AH as attuned. If you are looking to convert to Basilisk to sell, I would buy non-attuned, low-level holds or Basilisk recipes. You certainly can convert attuned pieces, but be prepared for a lot more clicks and converters expended if you are going for a specific set. The better option when converting attuneds, in my opinion, is to buy the cheapest ones you can find and convert to anything worth selling, not just a specific item.

When you are wrong, and admit you are wrong, you become right!

Why are we talking about this now then?

Soooo . . . what happened?

Putrescence. Great word.

I already have an SSD with Windows and some frequently used programs. The HDD mostly has documents and photos.

I appreciate the responses. I learn new things and ponder the options. The HDD mainly has work documents and they do frequently get edited as drafts and older, complete documents used as templates sometimes. But more than half are PDFs, photos, videos, etc. that will never change. All of the work stuff is automatically backed up to Dropbox in the cloud. Since it is an older computer, I don't want to put too much into it, as I expect I will be buying a new system within a year or two. Like with cars, I tend to use computers until they just about die of old age. I also got a free used Seagate 2 TB internal HD. I guess I'll plug that one in, but I suspect that it may also be old and decrepit.

I've got about 500 GB used up. Looks like 1 TB SSD is about 2 times as much for half the space of the 2 TB HD. Money isn't the issue, but that seems like a bad trade off at face value. But if it's that much faster maybe it's worth it.

I have a 5 year old PC that has a 2 TB hard drive on it's last legs that has mainly work files that are backed up. I'm looking to replace it and seeking recommendations. Should I just get another 2 TB HD -- like a Seagate Barracuda for under $50? Something bigger or smaller? An SSD instead? Any suggestions?

You mean like this?: Although LGTF incorrectly list Vanguard DNA Metamatrix instead of Hero 1 DNA.

LIES!

You are right. I was wrong. I was going from memory and was thinking they acted like recipes and crafted set IOs. In fact, this is a lucrative corner of the market -- selling level 53 HOs.

Yes, these types are bundled by what they enhance, regardless of level or source. So a level 50 acc/dam HO is bundled with a level 35 acc/dam D-Sync, a level 40 acc/dam Titan-O, and level 43 acc/dam Hydra-O. You can also use them interchangeably to combine and boost a level. Note that D-Syncs have a few combinations that are unique to just D-Syncs and therefore have no comparable HO/TO/HyO to bundle with.

Wut? If you are referring to AboveTheChemist's post above yours then you and I are reading it very differently. If you're referring to some other post then I think you need to provide a quote or other context.

As stated by others, there is a "standard" amount of XP per critter of X rank and Y level, but that standard amount can be modified by a number of factors. "In the wild," certain critters or factions are given added or reduced XP. For example, Family as a group gives reduced XP at 50 as they were considered less dangerous as a whole; Rikti portals used to give XPs but that was removed and the Lts that summon them given bonus XP to compensate; and as stated above, Freaks has a sightly lower XP rate that is balanced by the few critters that rez for "bonus" XP. The AE also has XP modifiers for custom critters. They have to have at least one ranged attack and enough attacks or defenses to make them "worthy" of 100%. Additionally, custom critter factions need to have a mix of bosses, Lts, and minions to get full XP as the OG devs wanted to curb the appeal of Boss and EB farms.

Congrats on 50!

Are you willing to use LKN-351, its parts, or its derivation as part of your name. Frigid is taken (I just checked. Sometimes the obvious ones are still available) . But I bet Frigid LKN, Frigid 351, Frigid LichKiNg, or similar names are freely available.
