That's not really flipping if you are selling the converted stuff. That's value added.

Actually, yes. I did and made some changes to the posted build to help with that. I put two Performance Shifters into Stamina in place of Power Transfers and a Miracle in place of the Numina in Health. I also took Support Radial Hybrid. With those changes it was fine as long as I wasn't shooting non-stop. In newer builds I am 3 slotting Stamina -- 2 Power Transfers (end mod and proc) and the Performance Shifter Proc. I had hoped that I could just exchange them two-for-two but that +endurance proc is stronger than I thought.

Thanks to all who run Trials and Raids. If you organize them, you get to set the rules. I have occasionally disagreed with a rule or strategy but I followed it anyway and sent tells to the leader after the event explaining why I think they would be better served doing it differently. On a few rare occasions I have quit before the event started because I felt the leader was either rude or not knowledgeable enough to lead that particular event. Most players do not like forming teams, even less like forming TFs, trials, raids, or I-trials. The more complex or difficult the events are the less people will want to lead it. So I think it is safe to say that most players have not lead a large league and don't realize how finicky the league system can be and the amount of text that is thrown at a league leader before and during the trial while they are also trying to give instructions to make sure everyone succeeds and gets their rewards. I don't always join the big league events. Certainly not as often as I once used to. I mainly solo and run some TFs for badges and merits. But whenever I do join leagues, I have been impressed by the folks that lead them -- very professional, great communication. Excelsior has a fantastic group of people willing to lead these and luckily we have had many. It takes effort to do them and burnout is real. So cut your league leaders a little slack and follow their lead. . . or form your own with your rules. I'm sure that if you form your own you'll want people to follow your instructions.

My build is on the first post. I skipped PGA because I'm not a fan of sleeps in this game. And while it is a big damage debuff, that's only valuable if things are actively shooting and hitting you. If they are dead, flopping, trying to run, or missing then -dam is not adding anything. Your build seems fine, but if I were to tweak it, I would end up going back to my build.

Oh! OH! Me!

You forgot Ice for procs, slows, and to be a Def-Troller!

The great and confounding thing about the CoH market is that it really is a market and is governed, in large part, by supply and demand. Because it is a real market ruled by supply and demand the prices can vary wildly in a day, a week, or over longer periods. For example, when I first came to the server I tried to sell Achilles Heel -res proc, knowing that is is a valuable, desirable piece wanted by many builds but only available at low levels. To my surprise it was selling for a few hundred thousand at most, frequently for only a few thousand. But then there were several forum threads about proc builds and DPS builds and demand for these shot up. More recently it has been selling for about 5 million. But occasionally you'll see a sale for 2 million-ish. Other sets that normally sell for 2 - 3 million, let's say pieces from Aegis or Unbreakable Guard, can suddenly spike as high as 10 million when there are only a handful left in the supply. That frequently happens on the weekend when more people have a chance to play. More people playing is more players demanding. An item that routinely sells for 2 million on Monday may sell for 5 million on Sunday. The things that are the most expensive are the things that lots of people want but are very rare, hard to find, perhaps they only drop in certain content, or don't drop at all. The prices rise and fall with supply and demand.

Robotics - Radiation Emission - Mu Mastery or Mace Mastery
Bionic_Flea replied to @T3h Ish's topic in Mastermind
Each proc will have a 12 - 21% chance to go off. Well, 27% for Purples at 4.5 PPM and 6% for 1 PPM, but most procs are 2 - 3.5. Not great odds for 1.6 endurance per second. -

Yup. Working for me again as well. -

Avast is back to it's old tricks again, blocking HC forums. -
Robotics - Radiation Emission - Mu Mastery or Mace Mastery
Bionic_Flea replied to @T3h Ish's topic in Mastermind
Here's mine. The concept was to stay in the air at range with group fly. Perma-Hasten and perma-AM. Soft-cap to smash lethal and 30s or higher to all other types and positions. -
But Cipher, why does Jimmy torture me so?

2021 July: The Poll Came Back: Pineapple vs. Pizza
Bionic_Flea replied to Jacke's topic in Off-Topic
I now know that Hawaiian Pizza is actually Canadian/Greek Pizza. I'm not sure how that changes anything, but facts are good. I have tried many things on Pizza, including pineapples. Of all the things I have tried, the one thing that absolutely does not belong on pizza is anchovies! -
What's the lowest level build that can solo AVs?

What level? -

What's the lowest level build that can solo AVs?
Bionic_Flea replied to dekova's topic in General Discussion
Hmmm . . . I'm curious now if anyone has soloed the DFB at natural level. I think maybe a level 6 sonic/rad corr could do it with either P2W support or e-mailed inspirations. -
How about debt=delete. Players don't get any debt until after level 10 . . . or is it at level 10 . . . one of those!

But GM Impervium, what about Council, 5th Column, and Axis America? Can I compare Ghost to a Raserei Ubermenschen Unteroffizier?

Send it via e-mail. That way they are sure to know where it came from, but it may be some time before they realize they have it. It's a secret bonus surprise!

Why are echancements selling for so much on the AH?
Bionic_Flea replied to MikeSol's topic in General Discussion
Smurphy? Another possible explanation is fat fingers -- they meant to bid 26,000 but clicked too fast. Or was bidding 2,600,000 for something else, then changed items and hit enter without realizing that the last bid was still there. I've certainly done both of those. -
What are you guys doing to revive PvP? A suggestion.
Bionic_Flea replied to Illy's topic in Suggestions & Feedback
But Widower, the forum PvP was getting better than the in-game PvP! -
Trapdoor Test Results - the other half of Pylon testing?
Bionic_Flea replied to Kanil's topic in Scrapper
Soooo . . . I tried this last night on my new Rad/Dark Melee and came back to this forum to compare times . . . I was terrible. Over 8 minutes. I thought I would drag the last mob with me to fuel Soul Drain, which worked except a widow and spider stayed at range double blinding me through the last two yellows I had. Anyway, I forgot to log off and came back this morning to several hundred Trapdoor bifurcations! His regen is over 9000! Here's just a few of them: -
