Snarky

...do you already have this badge? you may have picked it up unknowingly during the costume contest when the GMs were thrown into Echo plaza...

I like Polar Lights because they are small. Great for my Ice Blaster too, My Dark Blaster uses Storm, but I wish I could recolor them darker. Like all black. Also....you can get behind the cloud and not be able to see.

I have had good luck with an Elec/Temp in farms. I have never solo farmed with it. The range on the nuke is longer than ice. (And all at once) with a softcap range defense you can hover blast as long as the roof is high (not asteroid).

Drama. Drama drives every story. Soap Opera, Comic Book, Graphic Novel, epic series of novels. Drama. People crave it. Want to be part of it. And....want to create it.

So, you have moved onto a brief alt?

Knockback powers to me are one of those things i wish a Dev team would go in and allow us yo customize. Do you want knock back or knock down? It could be a permanent choice of changeable at a trainer like a build switch so many of these things are just how the game was and what we have to play around. I have KB in one Dark Blast cone. I slap in a KB—-> KD proc. Costs me one (quite precious) enhancement slot. Problem solved

I have a level 19 with over 700 merits. These were earned over the last couple weeks stopping experience, running solo story arcs, badging zones for every location and fighting giant monsters. That would make a pretty penny if i just turned it into converters and sold them

I ran on live for almost two years using builds that were 80-95% Single Origin enhancers. If you really want funds start farming. Or learn to market. Or come onto the forums and melt down. The first two are guaranteed to make a lot of funds. The last one is funny to watch

DreadShinobi makes a small income writing fortune cookies as a side biz

The price varies with market swings ps please stop cornering the market and flipping. Damned irritating to folks just trying to game

I am turning off experience to do all Redside (and Ouro Blue/Gold). My concern is actually the DIB which is good to 30. Since this toon is run only when I am not doing SG activities 20-30 will definitely take more than a week in game time. I suppose I will need to redo DiB a few times lol

The verbage on the Wiki and in-game state the temp powers gained from Dib and DFB last one week. Is that accurate?

I main a Dark/Dark. I really enjoy it. I am starting to play like a Blaster and not a Brute lol. Still not blapping though. I bop on for soul drain, T9 Blackstar and then head for the hills. I have 4 cones to hose the unwashed masses and of course nice long range ST

For solo there are ways you can break out of the rules and 'meta game' the crap out of content. The first is the Invention Origin system. This allows you to use Sets of Enhancers to build crazy benefits onto your villain. errr hero. Another good way is base buffs. There are 'empowerment stations' in many bases (you can make a base for free and add one yourself) that will provide hour long buffs to Resistance, Endurance, etc.... The Pay 2 Win vendor provides a multitude of little prizes. (most free, none charging real world cash) these range from temp Endurance buffs to Health boosters to Intangibility power. And....drum roll....calling for backup. Temp powers that summon a few lackeys to help with crap this is too numerous or too tough to solo. There are a multitude of other ways to crack the walnut but those are a few of the low hanging fruit that you might want to grab.

I don't run Regen so I have no build ideas stored for it. I understand there are a couple TFs/Trials/raids where Regen is King for Tanking certain mechanics. Not sure which ones. Hami may be one of them? Anyways Good Luck and enjoy the journey!

There is no chance this stuff will be added to ouro. Okay nearly none. Filler? Hmmmm. That is hard to quantify since the entire game is a time sink lol. I enjoy Redside so much i take a character once a year and do it all, stopping experience to complete every contact (even the hunts and “side” missions.

If you do the old school non-ouro stuff there is a lot more content

I just got my field crafter badge on my level 19 story arc toon. I literally put 1,000 generic I/Os level 10-50 of all types on the market. listed at 1 inf each. I make a lot of money crafting converting and selling. when i do i sell 50-150 Set I/os (generally heal, defense, resists, endmod) for about 75% of market value. (I want to move these things...) If you are struggling to pay for I/Os it is because you do not truly understand how to earn in the modern game. In my opinion.

When I am "focused" on playing I Slap the (created) tab NPC Dialog on to help me figure out clues on what room the goal is in. The General chat above that? They could be talking about billions being given away under the statue of the guy with one huge ball and new york being destroyed on television by a freak tsunami. I would never see it as it streamed past.

It is standard practice (not 100%, but real common) on Excelsior for LFG posts to state "Giant Monster in X, Broadcast in Zone for invite" This is almost always true for Mother Ship Raids. This is not uncommon for Imperious Task Forces. Incarnate Trials in Ouro... You sensing a pattern? Oh, also a pattern. People getting their panties in a bunch because they don't get treated like a "Queen for a Day" when they send a tell deigning to inform someone they might be interested in doing something.

Welcome to the greatest game in this time stream! I solo a lot. I have taken many Brutes and soloed all Redside. I stop experience (Menu, options) at levels 5, 14, 19, etc to ensure I get every contact, every mission. I thoroughly enjoy the Redside arcs. I am currently doing this on a Blaster. (See "Notes from Redside" conversation thread in General for a blow by blow. Really hope you enjoy the experience.

I run Villains and Rogues mostly. Being asked to get to the zone before the invite is so standard it is like getting mail in a white envelope. I frequently get asked to wait to be invited WHILE IN ZONE because it is a mixed team. These snowflake heroes who are distressed they cannot get an invite the second they wave their foppish hand in the air for attention are hilarious.

I was in the United States Navy at 17. I am an old man and i drive Semi Trucks for a living in a busy metro market. ( currently watching two truck drivers in a very small lot scream at each other while i sit in dock) If there is something you can type that will offend me i tip my hat to you. i will not need to put you on ignore if this happens. If you are that foul you will get your account banned. This will be for the simple reason that you are like that to more people than just me. That will send waves of feedback to the HC team

Thank you for leading great Leagues on Excelsior Oklahoman!!!

I never put anyone on ignore. If i am put on ignore. ? What? Some jerk doesnt want to talk to me? Oh my. What will I do?
