Snarky

I agree totally. Until …. Mission objectives suck in CoH. Especially Blue. Gold can sometimes be s pain do to so fancy. Redside, bestside, can still be a challenge. But blue? Major suckage. no one uses LFG function, except when a team is formed. Or to teleport to contact. We use LFG game channel to advertise. I play with Justice Superteamers Friday and Sunday on Excelsior. They welcome all players. We use Discord to organize and chat. At least listening will help, but not required. Ask anyone, i do not listen… Welcommen und Viel Gluck! (Welcome and good luck!)

You are right! Everyone who has a duck themed toon send 10 mil to @Snarky Duck bills…

does explain the truth of "Welcome to the suck..."

can't answer if a troll, but anything that cannot be trawled, grey, minion, AV w/e is intangible under current reality

"working as intended" it "hits" everything. but if you are a "weird" target like DE emanators DE Swarm, Carnie Strongmen, or other randos (even if minion/grey) will go intangible. Then it does not help me gather for Nuke. Why did i even try it?

at level 39 on my Dark Dark Corr i am respeccing out of Black Hole the final sad straw is (on top of the random intang on odd minions) the trawl is virtually useless. the AoE on the Trawl is less than the AoE on Dark's Nuke... so ... wtf use is this?

still charging through content, while trying to balance out of game stuff lol! if you are on Excelsior you will probably run into me. Cheers!

wow, i see what you mean lets see, we need: more head options, more back options, more chest piece options more leg options, more auras, ,ore alternate animations wow, i feel so much better. thanks

yes! rise up with me! donate generously to @Snarky and we can do this! Together!

some of the most annoying questions really. like walking up to people working in a factory "what would you do if you were running this place?"

Maybe that is better than the regular game…?

Ship of Fools. And entirely possible this ship has sunk. (Can a ship sink in space?) this is Steam, and i do not need that this is Heroes. Taps foot. Looks around…. Heroes? Spandex wearing hypocrites with martyr complexes? Heroes? Hard pass. See you! Can you send me your inf to @Snarky as you move on? I have a lot of alts left here to do. Nasty, vile and evil alts!

Slave Labor Graphics. They did a great job on Johnny the Homicidal Maniac. Real depth of feeling for the material. I would have Snarky done, and it would be a bloodsoaked nonsensical waltz through one vignette after another as he chased one whimsical desire after another

Which power had taunt? Tri cannon and spirit tree are both pets, and are meant to tank

This is an interesting take on “stand off” sets. Which is a very effective strategy in the game. Rather than being actually physically separated, you create a variety of effects right around you so that anyone coming in is facing a hellaciously bad uphill fight. I do this with my Dark Dark Dark Corruptor using tar patch, aoe stun, to hit debuffs, etc. other sets and ATs can really be more effective at this, i just do the best i can with my concept toon.

here are some builds that are good basic, or odd "fully ranged" that i have run Blaster - Electrical Blast - Temporal Manipulation tank 4.0.mxd Blaster Beam Temporal Munitions w ach.mxd Corruptor (Ice Blast - Dark Miasma) 2024 v2.01.mbd

One other thing I would change, and (i believe) this is a simple change…. Make EVERY contact also be a Ouro/TF type contact so you could run all content on a 50. You would be exemplar down to the mission level. That would open up a ton of story arcs and side missions to established characters. To “go back in time” and run this stuff. Let the contact keep track of everything you do for them just like normal

I like Super Strength concept super heroes. My main issue is not necessarily the game mechanic (which is F-ing annoying) My main issue is the power locks you, conceptually, into a backstory/power explanation that has a manic depressive cycle in it. I have weitten a couple of these and they can be funny. But not ALL my Super Strength concepts involve mania. So…. For those others I just cannot write them in CoH/V.

I have seen a lot of people here say “that is actually wrong” this is not optimal. say “You are doing it wrong!”

…are we still talking maps?

Blinks. What? No! No, no, noooo… I was asking about the horrid rooms because…. That is so beautifully wonderful. DRAMA. All great stories are built on drama. If all of our environments were candy coated perfect the game would be… so much less. It is in these terrible rooms, these horrid maps, that we must achieve…. I do not know? Exp? Random hami drop? The love of our friends? Having Snarky ask you to give him inf? THIS IS THE PLACE IT HAPPENS! The drama, the beautiful struggle in this miserable world. Whether by design or tragic incompetence we have been given these treacherous places to strive to achieve our goals. I, for one, give thanks.

name another mmorpg where i can create my own character, costume, down to crazy details, then play that as whatever i want.

We have heard suggestions for a pvp server. We see requests for a gold server. i think there should be a pvp gold server. That is where the crowds are!

There is a top in every game. go check. I will wait. See? i told you. City of Villains.. and heroes... has a top level of 50 plus incarnates. That has not changed in a very long time. Yet it still matches EVERY other game. It has a pinnacle. Adding further powers and abilities without content to challenge those players who get them is actually a disservice to the game and community. writing a lot of content that is significantly above where incarnate content is now would require serious amount of time and effort from many people. the HC staff is all volunteer.
