Scarlet Shocker

Thanks, yes I'd say I noticed a definite benefit. I also suffer End issues on this one so the idea of an UG proc + a Res gives me an End bonus so that's an extra reason to pick it! 😄

It's that time of year when the nights get their longest in the northern hemisphere so remember what today means to us all: Yule be sorry! Have a good one 🙂

Played my MM today and I did notice that even without the UG proc, just setting my minions to Defensive had a huge positive impact on play.

What would advertising actually do for this game? Where's the benefit? This is strictly a non-profit exercise and bringing in a new influx of players would put servers under additional pressure for no real gain. Population is good and steady, with capacity for some more but not many more. Do we need more players? I don't think that's a case that can be made readily. More players can only mean more costs which then means more donations. Things are good right now. Ain't broke, don't need fixing.

Ripper mate. Throw another kheld on the barbie and crack open another can of the amber liquid.

Vampires, relaxing

Paint it Black

Well this year Pantone have designated Cloud Dancer as the colour of the year, a kind of washed out white that might suit some palettes. https://www.pantone.com/uk/en/color-of-the-year/2026 However given recent news cycles, apparently there are thoughts they might change it to "Redacted Black" which would be equally disappointing.

Those who know, know. Those who don't, probably don't need to. If anyone is really interested in playing the game, they will find it. There is an agreement between HC and NCSoft that players are not party to. Have faith in the HC team that they are serving the game well and in the spirit of that agreement. They aren't advertising for... reasons (reasons we don't need to know)

That's an amazing toon. I had one of those on live and have recreated it here That's interesting to me. For reasons which should be obvious OP hasn't said what kind of AT or style they prefer to play but personally I'm a big fan of Controllers as a great AT with lots of mitigation and some very quirky mixes. I'm also a big fan of Poison as a debuff set and given it is primarily single target, pairing it with a set with plenty of AoE works nice. Plant/Poison, Dark/Poison work very well. Plant/TA is also very potent and quirky Some more input from the OP would be welcome to help refine his/her choices

That's gonna leave a ska

Got it, thanks!

I've heard of them. They are a low grade rip of the Pink Fairies!

Thanks. Can you give me the exact syntax for that please? Would it be /bindloadfilesilent Scarlet Shocker or would it have underscores, special characters or somesuch? Also why the "silent" there?

Here's an alternate theory: It's not the game that's messed up, it's the players! 🤣 The beauty of this game is that you can create a concept toon and suddenly... it's amazing but there are so many ideas to play and try and see and feel and do and operate and play and and and and... you have 1000 slots per shard and there's no limit to the number of accounts you can have. Go to town, play as many ideas as you can to your heart's content and then when you've done that, come back for more! Then rinse and repeat. And when you've done all of that and think you've had enough, there's one more thing you can do: Go hunt! Kill Skuls

If I knew what a glitchmode changeling was I might have an opinion

I've always been led to believe that targeting false positives is considered to be cheating! 🤣 I do like this idea a lot but how do I customise it to meet my own needs? Can it be designed per character or is it a global bind?

Good point, well made. We've had some great devs in both iterations who look a fter this game very well!

I have a good friend who's wife is Czech and he also imports some of their lovely lager into the UK. I keep threatening to visit him and get out on the lash there but I think he's a bit nervous about that idea! 🤣

I have corrected it! No longer works with platinum!

uh... Bacon?

As you say, this is just for funsies but the start of your post made me think of this

Bah humbug!

Yes and the Hundred years war didn't last that long either.

Before I complain about you ruining my thread with notions of reality, I'd like to reiterate that this entire thread is a result of my pointless musing. Yes it's effectively pointless but seeing somebody punted out of an upper storey MA window does bring with it a certain... satisfaction. Very few heroes, villains, or enemy groups would likely have their day ruined by such a thing but wasn't that part of the original Praguitic defenestration? (It was the 3rd but let's not count) But hey...
