Snarky

My main uses of Ouro; 1) Flashback badge collecting 2) Goldside (all) when doing a Red/Blue/Gold all content completionist run 3) Unlocking KHTF 4) Random badges 5) travel hub 6) incarnate vendor 7) zones that cannot be reached except thru Ouro for badges/merits/teamming

The inspiration was a Blaster I invited to a farm. My Brute was grinding away, this Blaster was doing Alpha strikes and fly bys the entire time. Only died once or twice. I was like.... hmmmm Works best (farming) on a large outdoor map like city blocks or carnie tents. In regular content is a vicious burst damage dealer with 3 "oh crap" buttons for getting out of any situation alive.

THE END ALL HOVER BLASTER (with better than Sentinel protection in most cases....) Blaster - Electrical Blast - Temporal Manipulation tank 4.0.mxd

My ultimate Dark Ranged toon ended up not being a blaster. I went Corruptor. This gives away up front damage for some of the meanest tricks in the book. Of particular note is how Dark Pit works with Oppressive gloom to create a mag 4 stun area. In this niche you can drop Soul Drain, Blackstar, and then lash out with ST and cones. The Stun, Fear, To-Hit debuffs, and wonderful Corr Damage does the rest. To me this is the ultimate Dark non melee. Able to use all those PB powers without much of a care. Corruptor - Dark Dark Mez build v 1.02.mxd

We just do not see the old sewer runs like on live anymore. What, this shovel?....nothing.

I have a dark dark soul. I do not live dark secondary on Blaster. I have a Dark Temporal Soul that I think is smoother

it is all one big system. which is why ww2 german scientists became soviet/american. the beast needs tech, bodies, and a fearful paying audience.... Generals gathered in their masses Just like witches at black masses Evil minds that plot destruction Sorcerer of death's construction In the fields, the bodies burning As the war machine keeps turning Death and hatred to mankind Poisoning their brainwashed minds Oh lord, yeah! Politicians hide themselves away They only started the war Why should they go out to fight? They leave that role to the poor, yeah Time will tell on their power minds Making war just for fun Treating people just like pawns in chess Wait till their judgement day comes, yeah! Now in darkness, world stops turning Ashes where their bodies burning No more war pigs have the power Hand of God has struck the hour Day of judgement, God is calling On their knees, the war pigs crawling Begging mercy for their sins Satan laughing, spreads his wings Oh lord, yeah!

WW2 was a Nemesis plot. He wanted a global military industrial complex he could control. And got it.

I have combed Redside damned thoroughly over the years. I cannot recall anything important mentioned about WW1 or WW2. There may have been some flavor text or a clicked on message box that I am missing/forgetting. Now keep in mind CoH was nicely written with a decent world backstory. Many of the big organizations have been around a long time. Some for millennia. Other big organizations were obviously inspired by real world organizations of past decades. All of these “spicy ingredients” can be pulled from the supply cabinet and thrown into the jambalaya of your own storytelling. Family in WW2? CoT? Midnighters? Silver age Heroes and Villains? You get the idea.

I have said a hundred times there is one simple solution for Synapse. Keep everything the same. Except….. You ever do a Synapse and luck into the small maps every single time? Goes fast doesnt it? Code the MFer to not be random maps. Just default it to the small maps. Tah-Freaking-Dah. Synapse fixed.

first, you have to find two Shivans that reallly like each other.....

LordXenophon dug up the grave. You know I have no problems talking to the long term dead though....

That is the door by the location badge right?

I still have my hard copy Pocket D pass. Which let you i to the Tiki room. Still wish we could enter this way. Was my original “fast” way to navigate through the game to different zones I want to say the Tiki bartender used to sell small inspirations as well. Sigh. Old vampire brain

I am away from game. Is it in the garage? Memory says there is one in a tunnel/garage. But….vampire memories are vague. We just dont care enough to remember

I have been with a team of pros who can do it sub 30 min. Everytime. Sometimes shorter. A good soeed team can knock it out 45 min, just casual “forming speed Synapse” in LFG. Ymmv. Plan, recruit, crush.

I always loved getting hunt X Longbow....after just getting the badge for killing 1000

I made a “tank mage” using kinetic melee which is mostly based on Tai Chi. (And actually has slight range). There is no way (i know) to port the movements to a different powerset. But if you wanted a melee toon for your concept take a look.

This is true and the reason i can claim “soloed every contact/mission offered”. Although the Hollows also has an endless contact The only thing that would tempt me for another run would be a great new Blaster set(s). Or….a rework of SS no crash

I like soloing in wow (some expansions….not all) because they learned to pack the area. Hunts, quests, tidbits, all woven together. CoH had neither manpower or experience at this. They did some nice stuff Goldside, but some was clunky first date crap like hunting roses in starter zone.

Yeah. They will. And you will have a ball. But if you taco because they over cranking it you can say….hey WP Brute ymmv

The shithead needed killing. That is why.

yes. and more from other contacts as well. somewhere around 5-7? if my old memory serves. it was a nightmare. i do not think carnies are anywhere except the ships. if another player is around the ships for any reason they will not respawn, or the players might randomly kill them while wandering through zone hunting....???

The problem was I committed to do EVERY mission red/blue/gold on one toon. (it is doable....insane, but achievable) So when the hunts pop up.... The only trick I used was to log on my alt acct and team with a 50, so at least the killing was slightly easier. Also important if there are other players in the zone. If you do not kill your carnies fast you may wait for the next respawn. Which you already have 5-6 per hunt minimum.
