    I like this Olerus guy. He makes good points.

    Quick! Undercut the vendors to corner the market!

    Original Hammy didn't rely on EoEs and the zone allowed 200ish players.

    I read the first page and then skipped to the end, sorry for bypassing anyone. I'm all for additional options. The problem is getting people to use these options. Similar options exist right now in TFs and Ouro arcs and from my personal experience most people use the settings once to get the badge and then never again (Exception for EV on Excelsior who constantly runs hardcore Master of ITFs). People play them them first time for the badges. So unless you add some sort of reward to this "no set bonuses" setting I don't think that it will be used very much. The rewards can be badges, extra inf/XP, or any of the other goodies that drop in game (other than an SO, that's just mean).

    *Breaks out all the auto-hit powers to use on BillZ* That's just crazy talk! Let's not get carried away.

    Everyone knows that sugar gliders are rude, selfish, and just out right mean.

    Play wherever you want. I went blue side.

    It's all on the honor system, so follow your conscience. I agree that lower level generic IOs are close enough to SOs. 35s might be a tad too strong as part of the SO life is them degrading somewhat. But a mix of 35s and lowers evens that out. It's rare to be +3 all the time . . . and expensive! But anything over 35 is definitely much better than SOs.

    Made it to level 6 and finished Prince Kiros Nandelu's set of missions and got the next one, Juan Jimenez from King's Row. I now remember why don't do these original contacts or challenge leveling often -- it's tedious as hell! Run all over Atlas Park and then back again to talk to contact. Doing DFB I'd be in the teens. Even soloing Matthew Habashy without XP boosters would have had me at level 11-12 by now. So, I'm breaking down and picking up the freebies at P2W. Still self-financing, for now.

    Hmmm . . . Probably not going to get many HOs under 50. I guess honor your conscience. If you have a slot or two of those it won't make much of a difference, but a build with a ton of HOs is close to a generic IO build . . . I think . . . maybe . . .

    I made Comedic Flea (rad/dark tank) on Excelsior and started running him through Outbreak and then the original contact. So far I haven't taken any P2W powers or my usual influence infusion from a level 50, but I may change my mind if it gets too tedious. I'm also slotting what drops, including the YinOs that dropped in the tutorial. That's relatively new. Or at least, I don't remember those being in the tutorial. But I haven't done the tutorials in a long time. However, I'm not imposing any additional restrictions on anyone other than a TO/DO/SO only build.

    I found the thread: Yeah, that's a little more limiting than I was thinking of, but it seems like you guys had more than a few willing to suffer for nostalgia!

    I frequently hear people say that the game is balanced around SOs. But I haven't used other the occasional SO that dropped in my lap for years. I really don't remember much what playing with SOs was like and even if I did, the first 9 issues are so far away from where we are now, even excluding IOs, that I'm not sure the memory would be a balanced representation of how it would play now. So I started thinking of what I would make for an SO build and decided on a Rad/Dark Tanker. I even made a Mids build for it. What would you make as an SO only build? And would you actually be willing to run with it all the way to Incarnate Trials? Would you make something new and play it up through the levels, make a second build for one of your existing characters, or PL something to slot. If there's enough interest and we can agree on a server and time to meet up we can see how far an SO team can go.
  14. Bionic_Flea
    To quote Skoryy: Why not both? Sure, run them as you say, but also run them with inspirations and temp powers and all the other things you and others would use for "optimal" damage and survivability?
  15. Bionic_Flea
    I finally agree with you!
  16. Bionic_Flea
    It's 46.92 Melee, 25.67 Ranged, and 23.17 AoE on mine. Since we have the same toggles running, it seems like it might be a code error or maybe suppression from being in combat mode (though it shouldn't). Did you make any database changes or have anything checked in Options, Effects and Maths, Suppression?
  17. Bionic_Flea
    I reject your general premise that a strong solo character MUST be a weak teaming character. Sure, it can be, like a defender that skips all team buffs. But a strong, well built character in a capable player's hands doesn't become weaker on a team.
  18. Bionic_Flea
    If a character can solo at +4/x8 how can it be bad on a team? If all 8 can solo at +4/x8 how could that possibly be a "problem"?

    Can you post the actual Mids link instead of just the picture?
  22. Bionic_Flea
    From looking at the build and assuming soloing x8, I would: Mass Confuse then either Confuse or Terrify bosses, Embrace of Fire, Rain of Fire, Fireball, followed by Blazing Bolt, Blaze, whatever for any thing left standing. For single target DPS, Mids recommended: Blaze --> Fire Blast --> Fire Ball --> Blazing Bolt --> Blaze --> Fire Blast --> Rain of Fire --> Blaze --> Fire Blast for 213 DPS with Reactive and Assault Radial active.
  23. Bionic_Flea
    I store them in my base as attuned or level 10 and slot them as soon as possible so that I can enjoy them on the ride up as well. If you PL to 50, or just don't slot your build until after 50, then yeah, attuneds or level 10s work just as well later in the build.

    Spinning is winning!

    I need a video! I must see this so that I can decide if I must make one!
