Thanks both, that's really helpful information.

Hi all, The title says it all. Kinetic/Seismic defender and I'm trying to work out what would be the most beneficial complimentary Alpha slot? Thanks in advance.

So, as far as I understand it, pets cannot be customised however there is another server (that I wont advertise <and don't use>) that offers this as an option by utilising costume slots Are there plans that anyone is aware of that may lead to Homecoming offering something similar or indeed does a weird and wonderful technique to do something similar already exist? Thanks in advance.

I was on one that did it in 10 and not knowing what the record was I was utterly convinced we'd done it in the fastest time ever...lol - under 7 minutes, no idea where we'd find 3 minutes to shave.

I've totally done this, on DFB badge runs and even then, even then, it fails. ..and then I do one with a number of self confessed new returnees and just given one line of guidance and its gone perfectly. I've also lost my poop once or twice but I try to remember that you just dont know who is on the other side of the keyboard, you dont know how their day has gone and you certainly have no concept of what distractions (most likely far more important than this game) are happening in the background. Leading TF's and retaining sanity is about patience and perspective...or at least thats the spirit I try so very hard to embody.

The Warriors MUST closely resemble those from the film, its far too important (to me) But... I would add some of the other gangs (from the film) to quest lines such as The Baldies and The Oldies to make the quests a bit more resonant (The Warriors are as much a tribute as they are a living breathing part of the City of Heroes) I love the idea of some ambiguity around whether they are good or evil You could add some great AV's and bosses to their quests, perhaps some mysterious shadowy controlling criminal masterminds manipulating the streets! (New high level units) Warriors - coming out and playay'ing since 1979

Thank you for posting that, great to see!

I'm not a skilled build...builder? This has been huge amounts of fun to play and proving extremely tanky but I realise I may have made some critical errors and could do better although the only weakness seems to be toxic, otherwise its looking pretty good to me. Any feedback gratefully received! This Hero build was built using Mids Reborn 3.0.5.9 https://github.com/Reborn-Team/MidsReborn Click this DataLink to open the build!

My understanding was that the 'toll' on gaming power due to extra security features was on pre-installed units, ostensibly a fresh installation rather than an upgraded one?

Rolled back to Windows 10 and problem fixed. It's a shame though...Windows 11 looks very pretty although it was definitely slightly more sluggish overall than Win10.

UPDATE - So I've deleted my COX installation (which had the old launcher), downloaded the new launcher and performed a fresh installation. problem persists.

Just did a reboot and in the first instance it didnt't say my account was already logged in but I got the mapserver problem at character selection screen again, then when i attempt to log in again i get the message as per above with "this account is already logged in" thanks again.

So, installed Windows 11 and then launch the patcher. Patcher starts fine when I type my password it tells me that my account is already logged in. I press on and as it tries to load up the character selection screen it tells me I have been disconnected from the mapserver. I have tried several times and have also re-validated but the problem is persisting. any advice would be greatly appreciated.
