Snarky

And make sure villains can run through the neighborhoods destroying everything

You are correct. But there is another mag 2 AoE stun available in Dark Dark Dark and it tirns your stun into mag4. Magic happens. Cloak of Darkness allows you to get close. Toss the ranged AoE mag 2 stun as you wade in with the Aura mag 2 stun. This screws with 95% mobs pretty hard. Soul Drain and Blackstar with impunity. Step or TP back and cone of Fear (to bit debuff). Then start barrage of cones and/or ST burn phase

Exactly how large an order of crap did you want? Large, extra large, or “bury me under Bandini mountain?”

My Dark Dark Dark Corruptor is about as vicious as you can get. Debuff and mez mobs to hell then switch to blaster mode

Oh I decided long ago they were just “following the rules” to not get in trouble for fraud. They collected a lot of money. If the did nothing they were screwed. Now, if the do a project horribly stupid they are not legally in any trouble

Seriously the only time I have been shocked by how fast this Brute hit the floor was in a shadow shard tf. Some idiot died in a crossroads in a cave. I decided to be a hero. Fing Rularuu could see me right through stealth. I hade EVERYTHING shooting me from range. It was packed in all four directions. Other than that +4 ITF, Incarnate trials, everything in game is yawn. Until you get to Battle Maiden and Magisteriums damage patches

I agree with so much here. I do take issue with the idea of Dark being vulnerable to defense debuffs. Like, so much it makes me want to rant. If you are building defense into your Dark on purpose you are honestly lost on how Dark works. Dark uses cheezy mezz (Fear and Stun) and a crapton of to hit debuffs, plus unsuppressable stealth to fight the fight IT wants. Against AVs the Armor and massive health recovery is enough. This holds up until you get to the damage patches in Incarnate Trials and trying to Tank 4 star content. But....you are the Brutiest of Brutes. Not a Tank. Very good damage, unkillable against your selected prey (nearly everything, as long as you play to your game, not theirs) My build: This Villain build was built using Mids Reborn 3.4.7 https://github.com/LoadedCamel/MidsReborn Click this DataLink to open the build!

In this amount of time they could have printed a rocket on a 3d printer. Full scale atlas perfect to the last detail.

if you buy a metric ton of any super pack winter etc you will have tons on insp in claimable email from anywhere

i love it

In real life I spend a LOT of time sitting in traffic, attempting to ignore/be polite to other drivers. I am a Semi driver in a large Metro area. So, I have to amuse myself. I buy lottery tickets pretty regularly. When the jackpots soar, I dream of what I could do with all that power. 1) Buy the rights to CoH. I have not researched it, but I understand this is actually held partially in at least two (possibly more) corporations hands. 2) Develop a game producing studio. Maybe in a few of the offices in the same building that I am hiding from the world in a penthouse suite. Maybe I will put them in a warehouse decorated like a base for that authentic touch. 3) Staff the game producing studio. This would require bribing and / or kidnapping a large part of the HC team to relocate. Money does talk. 4) Have the team rewrite the entire existing game in a modern code / engine. Every stupid mission. Including the blue ones I hate. Did you know one A-hole blueside contact has a mission you need to rescue 17 people? and when you do it turns into a kill all? Gotta recreate this. No one else was that visionary. 5) Bolt on Extra content / powers. Pain in the butt but would need to be done in a way where if vets wanted to play as authentic as possible they could still do so. Possibly through multiple servers you could migrate the same toon through, each gated to a different time in CoH history. Like I said....I sit in traffic a lot...

Good point. Stabbing wastes blood. A large amount of repeated blunt force trauma is much more heroic.

I am casually annoying. It may not seem like my “biggest power…” yet, as you see the effects over the centuries you begin to realize how great it changes things. Now, activating and deactivating it….that seems to be the tricky part

For me concept is above everything. What is your vision for the character, their origin, and how they rock the world?

I was at least assuming you were suggesting an add on and not a replace. Word to the wise….never take away someone’s construction pieces

Gott in Himmel! You are beating the old Vampire down lol My post centered around the indisputable fact it was a pie and the effects it had on your data set I do not care what type of baked good it is. Okay, I am mildly curious after all this but I am not going to spend two hours researching baking history and baked goods nomenclature Now the night is young. I am not. Off to hunt

you are seriously missing the meta,,, i was discussing data and conclusions is pumpkin pie an exception? or part of a broader group of un lidded pies? i do not know. i do not care.

Do you have any artists willing put to put in a crap ton of time on an old game? Then shaddup.

You're fun. I really hope this is a tongue in cheek response. But, just to be Snarky. (TM, pat.pend.) An exception does not prove a point. Mathematically and scientifically a non conforming data point provides extra information. The main bit of information is that your statement and/or hypotheses is false. You are absolutely correct. What I call it does not matter. However....when everyone who makes it calls it a Pumpkin Pie you have a bigger problem. How am I biased? Because I use the correct term for a baked good....that everyone uses...?

All those examples and talk and you just roared past pumpkin pie with a toss off rename you sir have invalidated everything you stated with that one remark. It is, without doubt,a Pumpkin Pie. Would you care to try the bonus round, where the numbers can really change?

lol, the anniversary stuff is just a merit sink for badges...right? and the SBB is, to grab a word at random, Everlasting? Sooooo Halloween seems pretty next.

When I can Nuke Tank a 4 star Aeon Kill All Badge Run on a Blaster....it MIGHT be enough. probably not.

I did not read this whole thread. But my take is you want more random comments and not whole conversations in LFG?

old vampire brain is not working....isn;t the next CoH holiday Halloween?
