Snarky

Das ist nicht so gut…

a lot of the doors in CoH are painful. you know, i won't detail it. but the underground gold sewer entrance exit rebel base doors? you deal with all the normal crap, then it will not open until you use a dialog box. my irritation level goes from baseline to "need to hunt soon" every single time. and i am running out of places to hide the "evidence" can we fix this BS? when i click a door YES I WANT TO USE THE STUPID DOOR

arcane then.

here i one i made based on Hyperstrikes templates. ymmv Tanker - Invulnerability - Super Strength v2 rough.mxd

here is a Hyperstrike MoDurable build. Hyperstrike is sick right now, but his work is legendary! Tank Invul SS Hyperstrike MO Durable.mbd

... no. i was pretty up front about what / why... you been reading to many conspiracy websites?

Your character name: Snarky Your Global handle: Snarky Your base’s name: Limbo The shard it is located on: Excelsior The passcode for entry: Limbo-10586 The category your base is entering under: Arcane Contributing builders’ names or Global handles: I take full credit for this crap Any additional information you wish the judges to know beforehand: I offer hefty bribes...

Whereas i want Fort Darwin back lol. My first experience in CoH was busting out of the Zig and hitting Fort Darwin. Yes, it was corny. But damned. It was home.

i think funneling players to Atlas is a good design choice. It would be great if Echo Galaxy ( with an entrance from Atlas!) was turned into a 1-10 Hazard Zone with a rowdy street hunt mechanic thrown in, maybe based off a few contacts to start the event(s)....? badges! edit... or not Echo, but the reclaiming of beat down Galaxy, a continuation of Outbreak!

there are a decent number of badges in those arcs...

…. Trying hard ti not give a snarky answer… anywhere on the character that has less than six slots

I suggest (and have before) a bonus to characters that are much loved by their player. At Vet level 100 you get 1 bonus enhancement slot. This is quite achievable by standard players who stick with one character. It is not game breaking. To me, it seems like a reward in standard with the other types if rewards a character gets. It is, of course, a completely different type of reward than currency, badges, accolade powers, incarnate, etc. The goal here is two fold. To encourage the long term development of “main characters”, which i believe 1) increases a players connection to the game 2) increases level 50+ play. The second point is debatable whether that is needed, but it is a goal and i believe this would further that goal.

why, you afraid of stale product?

unless i am on a dom i do not do this. (perma dom!) and even some of those do not have 5 def powers... so no 5 lotg... i tend to build to theme and for set bonuses. think Batman, TV series or George Clooney era. Theme is EVERYTHING! and my builds are not "the best" though they do provide a ton of enjoyment, because it does not feel like "cookie cutter build 123 with random costume x4d. it feels like a Freaking themed Super! with powers that add to the game, even if they are sub optimal in 4star Aeon...

ignore 99% of everyones complaints. watch trends. youre doing a job that is very difficult

Update! Level 14 with only two contacts left before hitting 15. Ouro should open at 15. I will stop exp at 15 and do all the low level Praetorian arcs, and the lowest tier of Ouro badges (just doing them on the first missions of arc 1 prae, which makes a couple harder but oh well!). But the big news is I hit 750 badges! Now I wear the Adventurer badge title. A decent achievement on a level 14 lol. This includes all location badges except maps i cannot get to yet. It includes all invention badges except the craft 2000. And a ton of random stuff because i run with anyone doing content that interests me and a bit with Justice Super Teamers on their “warmups” before main events Fri and Sun.

So…. I am a verb now???

so i invest 40 hours (tops, could be 10-20) 50ing a willpower brute and ALL my toons gets +2% def? no. just no.

Many times doors near a door can function as the door. While the lore is CoH code is convoluted as 16 contortionists locked in a jiu jitsu struggle it is not… quite … that bad. But it is weird. I assume the hazard zone here is affected by the vagaries of CoH door code… because it obviously is.

They wear masks? 😷

Smoke bomb to grab glowies feels like cheating lol
