Snarky

so. you got a few choices here. move the name. play the character. or log in the character once in a while. or....... you can get everyone else to change the world to suit you.....

there are some good small groups running. On Excelsior i have joined Justice Superteamers. They run themed teams Friday and Sunday night. ( 8 pm EST, 5 pm Pacific ) They have discord. It is a mature group. On Sunday we ran a +2 Master Eden. It was a cakewalk.

i am the delight. not this poser. ask anyone.

look at this: ArcanaTime - Unofficial Homecoming Wiki this was discovered by a very very clever player. it is the "real" game balance. what you are asking for would cook the entire game into an over clock situation.

here is the build Hyperstrike made for me 5 years ago when i found HC. i still have this exact Brute.... Snarky - Brute (Super Strength).mxd

firstly your data sets, logic, and sky is falling attitude are all fails. yet i think we are probably slightly slower. so, go run around and cry doom about it. i game in CoH regular as i can.

I farmed today for the first time in…a year? I needed (wanted?) a 59 water/temp Blaster and i am short on time. My favored method is slow leveling theough every TF/SF/Trial. But i got my alt acct farmer out and ground me up a new toon. Es war ekelhaft! (It was disgusting!) But i got my 50 and the world keeps turning. Glad we have the option.

but if you were at this store the smugglers sub would be close...

Wait…. This? This is the fear? LGTF is what? 20 years old. And you can now complete it with no holds required. Maybe always? So, at this rate we will be just like WoW in. Hold on. Math to do. Okay. 2487 years. Okay, it is a valid fear. Lets remove this TF from the game. Better safe than sorry.

No. Just...no. This TF already has been relooked at and changed. For the better. (yes, once in a while I like things) BLASTERS can have 3 ST holds. Most have at least one. If you cannot 1) check your team before you start 2) brute force it (inspirations exist) then ----->

i run a lot of Dark. i am against it.

wait.... what?

yeah, but you cannot expect me to read the insane rambling of random forum posters.

No. Then we would have to put up with infinite “rubber man” jokes

The strangeness of the naming conventions is quite thematic for CoH. When delving deeper into the way info on sets was hidden, the changes to the sets over the decades, and the oddness of some of the sets…. I would actually argue standardization would be misleading. Sure, in a couple places it might make sense. But those sets have had players ising them for DECADES who might not be happy with your plan of gentrification.

Wait. You thought i cared about the answer…? damn. I am getting talented in my ancient vampire years.

now we are getting somewhere. WHAT pop culture reference? it's like trying to pull teeth to get answers.

Yes. It adds up. But you have to have build goals. Not just random bonuses. Take my resistance dark Brute. Who chased resistance bonuses and can tank Lord Recluse on a master ms liberty. Or, again, perma doms chasing global hasten. Or my 100% ranged attack blasters who build for 45-60% ranged defense. It does indeed add up

At about level 30 slotting sets is a huge bonus compared to I/Os. There are some caveats. It helps to have 3-4+ pieces of the set. (Set after all). Almost every set piece will give bonuses to 2-4 different attributes. And these “a little here, a little there” really add up. Picking set bonuses that seem “okay” for one set bonus, then stacking that across your whole build adds up to really improved performance. Take ranged defense. You get 3-4% off a set. But if you get 5-7 sets with ranged defense…. Global recharge is like that, and leads to Doms getting permanent Domination. No one set bonus does it. But they stack it sometimes over 100% global recharge….

This is modern social media. With all the ills that entails. And, inevitably, they will be trying to monetize it in 1-100 ways. CoH has always been my favorite for creativity and content. And the HC team is wonderfully free of drama and money grabs.

it's a costume option. any further delving into why is not recommended...
