Snarky

anyone else?

The name (i just glanced) was mini-trademark. So maybe tacking the mini- on front on the marquee name was enough to let it slip through. Like if you chose She-something or everyone used prawn. ….now i am starting to think there may be more to all the shrimp references in The Good Place….

Thanks. I know that is right. I let myself nit do it because it was so egregious I knew it would get reported. But I should have as well. I feel like i already sandpaper about half the peoples skin i interact with. Tough to smack someone else down. My own main is a straight up tribute to Max Schrek with Bela Lagosi camp. But Nosferatu is in the public domain. Otherwise the heirs of the original producers would own about 10% of Hollywood and all of White Wolf

So someone logged into Atlas today and shouted in broadcast “Hi I am mini-(major trademarked super). And that was their name. I looked over (I was next to Ms belt o’ freedom) and they were indeed about a four foot tall version of their muse. I did not report them. I feel protective of the community but I hate politics. (To me this is political) I also figured they were probably already reported on on their way to mini generic 1755362 What say you? Should I have snitched?

I have started doing all redside content on a dark dark. Really enjoying myself. The best part is starting to dive into each power and figure out how to use them most advantageously. I may just become competent on one of the things. I have always built (and played) Corr as Blasters lopsided cousin. After doing all red 1-9 contacts/content I have begun to realize how i have wasted the power they do have. Power? Time to have fun!!!

Snarky

Today i slipped my new crawl toon Rogue. I went to Atlas and badged. Got a duplicating gift. An Ouro portal. 4 DFBs for the up to 22 buffs (will do DiB 4x to extend them to 30). Now am currently at 14. I have completed all Redside 1-9 content. The DFBs took me from 9-14. Normally I would wait to do Posi until 19 and exemp down. An extra power, more slots. But it is the weekly. New Years eve. The weekend. Roll the dice. And lose. Just lose The Posi 1 was a PUG and I thought nothing about level 10 leader. They will pass the star I thought. You ever been wrong? Happened to me. They also, as they started, stated they were running at +1 to ensure we got Ruin Mages. It was not good. There were a couple good players. But we had team wipes. We had a MM whose pets pulled everything from everywhere. Which the team ignored and just split to do different things. We get inside city hall and they go straight instead of taking the left group. Finishing the center half the team races to the shadows (and I mean race, no wait/buff etc) and the other half pivot to the group on the left…. F that TF A couple hours later after doing some Winter stuff I joined a Posi 2. I checked. A level 20+ leading. Okay. It started okay. Not Cosmic Council crush things while making it look like a ballet. But okay. Then one of the players could not find Faultline. I gave them the copy paste base macro. They did not understand how to copy paste. Meanwhile the team is down two players and are hurting. I dive into combat. The lost player is now in Perez and someone goes to get them. We bumble along and are still not doing horrid, it’s borderline quite a lot of the time. We keep moving. Then we get one of the oddest Oranbega maps and cannot find the glowie in the next to last mission. WTF. That map never shows up. Then, last mission. A few people are acting like speed runners. Which is okay, get glowie go. But….we get inside the dam and parts of the team just start. I am not sure how. to describe it. I did ask in team chat if we had 4 MMs running ninjas on the team that I had not noticed. They agroed everything. They went all around the room like they were Fing sight seeing. Is this a dam? Is the water in here? What is that behind those ghosts? The speed runners have went outside and the cutscene starts. I am TPd. (Dead) and a few players race to fight Vahz while I am still kneeling getting my blue up. I jump up there and burn team insp for the half the team that is there. We defeat Vahz. TF does not complete. WTF? Oh, they didnt get the bombs. *facepalm Happy New Year!!! We have new players. Or really drunk and stoned old players. Anyways, back to soloing Redside. I’ll send a postcard

Trying hard to get to level 10 so I can do the Winter event but stopping experience to do every contact for all content. F-ing running aroun Port Oakes to get 200 presents. Oh…that was today. Um…on live? So happy they came out with Willpower. I ran so many SS/Invul Brutes pre inherent fitness on SOs I am surprised I am still here lol

Actually there is a current “world class” player who is at the center of such a scandal. I am sure the authorities will get to the bottom of things…

I love the enthusiasm... but, yeah, no. My Ice/Ice Tank (not the toughest, but great) is insanely unkillable compared to any Dom....and is pretty much an AoE Dom. once something is pulled in they will never escape orbit

After a few erm contentious pages of explaining why I am anti “sale” (i will not re explain it, read it if you want) Hold onto your heads…. I am pro reducing the price on Winter packs to 10-15 million PERMANENTLY and likewise reducing Hero/Villain packs to 5-7 PERMANENTLY

Kill them. With kindness.

And i just popped in to say you want a Fire Fire Blaster. I can see I jumped to a conclusion anout why you posted Care for a band aid? Neosporin? Traction?

Depending on the contact villain side is psychotic amoral evil lawful chaotic just random twilight zone or now for something else entirely. There is Arachnos loyalist, Arachnos subterfuge and you are not as Arachnos as me! There are mad scientists crazy mage and and and

I do not do a lot of “hard mode” content. I never liked the 800+ AE series. I have run a few Dr Aeon on regular. One master (forgot to bring Becky last 20 feet sigh…). One something star Aeon (one was enough) a couple 2 star ITFs. I am no expert on hard mode content But I noticed this thing. On a 2 star ITF tier 3 inspirations are disabled. Right? Hmmmm….not so fast. Regular tier 3 inspirations are disabled. “Team” tier 3s are fine. And guess what? If you have bought a few Winter and Hero packs you probably have a little trove of those. Sitting in your e-mail. Accessible during the fight as you burn through them. Just another exploit available to those who got to buy thousands of Winter packs at deep discounts. This game, like life, favors those who are rich and got here first. Behind most “we need to do this extreme hard mode” post is a person sitting on a ton of exploits the team they are rounding up may have no idea exists This is why I play chess. You want to compete. Fine. Lets have fun. I am not the best player. But I am not bad. And there is no way to cheat. Except the guy I caught putting pieces back on the board (I let him get away with it…those pieces were useless to his strategy…)

It is always better to play a toon and learn the powers. Yet sometimes you just want to hop into the game and be on easy street. Both are fine. It is called playing. Hopefully there will be time to delve deeper into an AT and powersets you love. Unless a toilet seat from a de orbiting space station hits you at the speed of sound. Then youre gonna look like a jelly donut mess

Please do not advocate raising the Hero pack prices. As has been covered in this thread extensively there are quite a few players who have no interest in spending days or weeks making influence. To them the current price of Winters and even Hero packs are a big investment. I personally believe everyone should be able to afford good I/O builds in this game if they want them. I find most of the market borderline griefing.

I have done it a few times. About six if us from Cosmic Council did it two weeks ago. Most were on level 20s SO enhanced toons. Two of us got pissed and got our incarnate 50s and that is what turned the tide lol. The true reward is the badge if course.

Rather boring solution but easy; use the backstory space.

There is a storyline in Sharkhead where you become the Bruce Wayne of villains. There are many storylines where you become extremely powerful, affect things on a political level in Arachnos, literally hand Recluse his head. But I get it, it is your perception, and that is 100% valid. The game does not help you feel villainous. I am blessed by having a twisted and evil mind. Set me down in the Zig with powers, tell me to break out and work my way up through the underworld? Okay, sounds about right

This whole topic is dead. Brutes have been steadily nerfed since they were created. In time Sentinels will slowly be buffed. They might meet in the middle. I was thinking of moving from a Brute and onto a Tank as my main. But after much twisted musings I have surprised myself and decided on a Corruptor. Either Brutes will be nerfed again (high probability, no not a straight obvious nerf, just a sideways screw you) or Tanks will be buffed (moderate possibility, straight up buff or general in game boost that affects them more than most) because the current Dev staff values one Traditional Tank and the WoW paradigm for Leagues and teams. Brutes do not fit into their mindset and are viewed with skepticism and suspicion at best, outright hostility on a more aggressive page publish. There, I posted. Back over to Corruptor forum. Lock this bitch.

winters sell for 17+ on market. a winter pack (when bought in bulk) has slighty more than 1 winter per pack on average. then there is a bumch of extra stuff which is nice to have and/or sell. some of which is accessible through email in new hard mode content. serious good cheats.

Not a villain? Okay. You are tough. I thought this mission was less than heroic.... Bring citizens to Vahzilok surgeons Briefing So Dr. Vahzilok plans to come to Rogue Islands, eh? This bad for Krylov's business, but Krylov have plan. Great BIG plan... Dr. Vahzilok is big tough villain in Paragon City that everyone knows, nyet? Well, if Dr. Vahzilok is too busy fighting heroes, he can't make visit to Rogue Islands! I say we set up Dr. Vahzilok for fall! I know some Vahzilok surgeons in Paragon City who I worked with on some 'special experiments.' I will tell them you are coming to help them gather more 'raw materials!' When the Paragon City heroes find out about the kidnappings, they'll be after Dr. Vahzilok like fleas on a dog. Ha ha! Now go to Paragon City, kidnap some victims, and take them to the Vahzilok! Bring citizens to Vahzilok surgeons Watch out for Longbow, Character. They have been very suspicious of who I have been talking to. Unnecessary Solicitation What are you waiting for? Set up Dr. Vahzilok for fall! Mission Objective(s) You dodge various Longbow patrols set up to prevent you from making it into Paragon City. Now kidnap some citizens and take them to the Vahzilok! Bring citizens to Vahzilok surgeons 3 victims to kidnap

Gold is definitely the best designed. I dislike it for the constant politics. Hippies vs The Man. Rabble vs Establishment. The grievances with a thousand names. No thanks. Give me a boring old vampire redside thanks lol.

Probably. Today I transferred over my signature name to him "Snarky" even though he is just hitting level 8 and will not 50 for months. He does indeed bear as much resemblance to Max Schrek as the game allows. With the cape and high collar, because why not go overboard?
