  1. Late to the party here, but while it's been commented that the Hoverer in question couldn't really produce eye-melting graphics just off of Hover alone, combined with a retina-blistering Aura or Path Aura (or both) maybe it would be achieved.

     

    My problem with /noparticles 1 is that so many powers are only composed of particles and you wouldn't see them.  @Andreah's low-particle-count solution is better, and similar low-FX macros can be created IIRC.

    It makes me wonder if games will be developed with good graphics in future or if there will be an AI overlay that reinterprets crap graphics in real time.

    Given what a moneymaker "remastered" old games are? Heck yeah.

  3. Took a shot at Krea, and when I wasn't quite happy with the results, I fed itself the output, then overlaid them in a paint program and combined the two... then combined the original over that... then fed it to Krea again.  Krea SURE likes wrinkles, doesn't it?

  4. I am reminded of a conversation in ... I think it was in Help Channel? a week or so ago.  There was a Shield/ tank who was frustrated that there was content he couldn't be Main-Tank for; I believe Hamidon was the specific example brought up.  Should the highest tier content be tuned so potentially anyone could do it?  To perpetuate the joke, what about a suboptimal toon like a Warshade?

  5. I lean into my alt-itis.

     

    First, I generate the character - which could have any number of seeds to it from an offhand joke spoken earlier to book characters to OCs dreamed up on my commute.

     

    Upon appearing in Atlas I hit the START vendor and pick up Mu and Nemesis Beatstick, the five Enhancers, and the x2 XP buff.  Then it's straight to where the Hellions are raising hell (ha) in the west side (Once you're a Jet you're a Jet all the way!).  Group up spawns and Mu them down.  Gain a level and keep going, using the Insp buffs from levelling to push harder and faster.  Keep this up til I ding 4, then go see Back Alley Brawler and level up, followed by street sweeping in Argosy til 6, maybe more if I'm having a good time.  Then one of two things: if there's a DFB starting, I'll join that; if not, the character goes on the shelf to accumulate Patrol XP.

     

    I cycle characters in and out of play as their Patrol XP waxes and wanes, doing whatever strikes my fancy at the time.  I haven't joined in any PI Council shenanigans since the Council Patch, but if it's a character I've really taken a shine to I might park them in a dual-boxed fire farm. 

     

    I recently did this with a villain I've taken a liking to and now plan to use Ouro to go do all the redside content.

    What is your global accuracy, and how do you have Fold Space slotted? I've never been able to port Rikti in the bowl, even using the Ultimate Insp. 

     

    I've never had problems porting them in as long as I had both the Ultimate running and my +1 Alpha shift.  My Accuracy is sittin' at 1.52x.  I use both Fold Space and Wormhole to do it (and Shadow Slip on my Warshade main).

  7. • Added scaling HP to Giant Monsters when in the presence of more than 8 players.

     

    Is this true of Ukon Grai as well?  Because damn, it took about a third of our clock time on the MSR to down him this afternoon (Zone raid).

     

    EDIT: Maybe we were just short on damage. Evening MSR took us less time.
