Snarky

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?

More like lazy loading. I collected all my recipes from alts and totalled 3-400. So I crafted converted and dumped those last week. Somewhere around 2 billion profit. Converters were free from reward merits, recipes were free drops, a lot of rare salvage was stored from drops. YMMV

Life is like a igloo cooler filled with plasma bags

I will not be selling major again for a while. So I can say my niches lol. I convert all 25+ to rare, then roll until i get defense, resist, or end mod. With goals of Unbreakable Guard (4of the 6 are good) Luck of the gambler global or Performance Shifter proc. Below 25 uncommon. More fluid depends on level etc. Kismet Global, resist global defense, heal for procs end or health etc. kinda varies on level of i/o and luck

Is one of those the arc with some kind of linked objectives badge? I keep screwing up getting that one organically. Will need to research it before I hit Sharkhead

Got off to an early start with my 2023 Redside Crawl. I chose a Corruptor this time. Dark/Dark. First time taking something besides a Brute. I am doing other things slightly different as well. I will solo every contact Redside, for every mission they give until they say "Go find someone else, I have nothing" That is as usual. The odd part is I will be Rogue. As a Rogue I will be badging Blueside as I level. Whatever mission badges I can get (through Ouro) once that opens up. I will not be completing all Blueside content. Just badge missions in Ouro. Gold as well, (which is all, sigh) and of course location, history. etc. While the core of the run is still the same, this is definitely more a badge centric themed run. I am curious how many badges I can amass by 44... (45-50 content is done at 50, so no reason to stop at 49) Level stops are 4, 7, 8, 9, 14, 19, 24, 29, 34, 39, 44 to finish content. Are you planning any adventures in the new year?

Thanks Yomo. Thanks a lot.

not one of my niches. i always thought they swung too wildly

But that is the weirdest part. I sold them like hotcakes for a week at nearly 4mil a pop each. sometimes more. Now. one left. no one wants it. For days. WTF
