    "everything this toon can do could be done better if it was rerolled on a different AT using exactly the same powersets".

     

    Doesn't the chart quoted above show Brutes doing better than scrappers or tankers on a few power-sets refute that?  Granted, I think the only set they do better than both is only Staff.  But there are several where they do better than scraps on some and better than tanks on others.  Or am I missing something?

  2. Two other things I don't think were addressed before (or I missed it): 1. Fold Space and Marine Affinity and 2. Fold Space solo.

     

    I recently leveled a Beasts/Marine MM on Indomitable by ToTing until 40ish and then soloing.  Man, let me tell you, there's nothing quite as satisfying as opening up on one group and then folding the nearby group into the sea with you and your pets and watching them flop and melt.

    I'm still trying to figure out how to fit all these water goodies including leviathan stuff into a build. If anyone comes up with anything solid lemme know as there's too many choices and I want a buffet.

     

    My build is posted on page one under a spoiler tag.

  4. You know, I don't think I have ever used badges to judge another player.  I do frequently look at their info, but I am looking for true level, (is this a vet level 100 or level 10), what does the build look like (does it have essential powers, good set bonuses and accolades), and the global (is this a person whose name I recognize).

     

    The level and build lets me calculate how hard I can set the mission, if I am leading.  Or it lets me know who might be needing more help if I'm just along for the ride.

     

    The global is just a nice check to see if it is someone I know from forums or in-game to send a tell, "Oh hi, personname!"  Or, on rare occasion, I see a global of someone I know to be difficult and can either opt out early to avoid drama or just keep an eye out.

     

    First appearance and badges don't tell me as much.  Although I do like Ukase's insight that it shows some level of being a cooperative player with at least a few friends.

    It's not the level 50 characters that are only 3 days old that are the ones to poke fun at, it's the level 50 characters that are only 3 days old who are posting "How do I get to [city zone]?" questions in chat that are the proper targets of denigration. Some of those questions are reasonable -- you can easily get to 50 without ever going to the Hive, or the Abyss, or one of the Shadow Shard zones, but a level 50 character asking how to get to Kings Row or Steel Canyon is just sad and laughable. At least with the removal of the AE buildings in Atlas Park and Mercy Island they have to become acquainted with the concept of changing zones, even if it's only to get to Pocket D, and they've never been anywhere else.

     

    My usual response to questions like that are "first, exit the AE . . . tell me when your done.  Now look for the 'T' on the map."

    Id love to ask those who work  on this if, and how, they get  into contact with  those at NCSoft? 

     

    They did get in contact with NCSoft, through attorneys, to negotiate the license.  I assume that there is also some on-going contact.

     

    I don't expect that any one at HC will give you (or anyone) the email or phone number of any contact they might have at NCSoft.

    Good question!  I'm not sure but will find out and report back.  But to be extra safe, assume trained level to avoid any unfortunate misunderstanding.

     

    Edit: After consultation, I have been advised that it is the number that appears on the character selection screen, which is TRAINED LEVEL.

     

     

    It's on going.

     

    Googly already answered that.

  8. I was soloing them today on my new blaster.  Yes, sometimes they killed me.  They are tough EBs.  This was on a level 50.  I am sure that they are extra hard if you are in your 30s.  That may be difficult, but as stated, you could run away, or get friends, or use some temp powers, inspirations, etc.

     

    That said, I am not opposed to them being restricted to teams or to certain levels.  I just don't think it is necessary.

    Hello!

    It’s been a while

    Hello, yeah it's been awhile
    Not much, how 'bout you
    I'm not sure why I'd called
    I guess I really just wanted
    To talk to you

    I was thinking maybe later on
    We could get together for a while
    It's been such a long time
    And I really do miss your smile

    I'm not talking 'bout movin' in
    And I don't want to change your life
    But there's a warm wind blowin' the stars around
    And I'd really love to see you tonight

    We could go walkin' through a windy park
    Take a drive along the beach
    Or stay at home and watch TV
    I see it really doesn't matter much to me

    I'm not talking 'bout movin' in
    And I don't want to change your life
    But there's a warm wind blowin' the stars around
    And I'd really love to see you tonight

    I won't ask for promises
    So you don't have to lie
    We both played the game before
    Say I love you then say goodbye

    I'm not talking 'bout movin' in
    And I don't want to change your life
    But there's a warm wind blowin' the stars around
    And I'd really love to see you tonight

  10. I also remember people saying we couldn't have different animations . . . or different colors for powers . . . or a way to turn Group Fly at all.  Somethings are impossible, somethings are hard, somethings are time consuming, and somethings have such a minor benefit that it isn't worth doing.  And even the impossible sometimes becomes possible with new tech or a different way to approach a problem.  I don't know what GF is.  It may be impossible . . . for now.

    did you make this to torture me?

     

    Yes.  I am secretly Zach Bryan and I wrote and performed that for you.

    Don't be ridiculous!  It means you have to look into the sunset and be lonely!
