Does Excelsior have anything that regularly runs on Sundays between 2-4PM Eastern? I'm asking since I'm running an event through Mission Architect that's cycling through shards and while the time has been perfect for Indomitable and Torchbearer, I lack that knowledge for other shards.

There is a daily MSR ran at 3pm Eastern 💛

Ok, I thought about this for a long time, but after the comments' made by @Arisara, I figured I would share something quite personal... And that is about how I almost quit CoH and how GL saved me from doing so...
You see I, like so many of us here, store what money I have in our Emails. Well, a long time ago, I looked at my Email to get some money for some IO's, and low and behold, I saw that ALL of my money was no longer there. And when I say all, I mean over 500-700 mil (if I am remembering correctly). So I checked all of my characters (all 100+ of them) to see if it was on any of them... nope, it wasn't. Totally confused and quite distraught, I contacted support to see if they could A) find out what happened, B) find out where it was (I think), and C) see if they could reimburse me for my loss, if it was in fact lost to the wind.

Well, they replied saying negative to all three things, so I was totally angry and devastated by this incredible loss. For while such a sum of money might not be that big or even a big of deal to many of you, to me it amounted to nearly a year of accumulation and, well loss. I am generally a "casual" player by most standards due to RL and medical concerns, and to lose such a amount of money was something beyond... heartbreaking. And yeah, it might have been "pilot error" on my part of course, though I had been told by several people that sometimes this Email snaffu was a bug that hit occasionally.

So I decided I was going to quit the game, and having contacted GL (and the SG) I explained the situation with near tears, telling her goodbye. Well all of a sudden, GL says to look in my Email, and much to my shock, GL had replaced ALL of the money I had lost, with some extra too. I was... shocked beyond belief, and talking to GL she said that she had indeed sent me the money as she did not want me to quit the game, or leave this great SG & people. I was... well, words still fail me on what I felt/was feeling, and I thanked her of course. But long story short (too late I know), GL saved me.

In truth, CoH IS just a game, but to many of us it is much more than that, with the connections we make with the people who play it. As such, what happens in it can and often times does affect us in a very real life way. GL did NOT have to do this... but she did, in a heartbeat, with no thought for her own self. She "saved" me from leaving this great game of ours, all the friends I have made in it, and this great community. SHE did this, and I love her for it, as many of us love her as well.

GL has one of the biggest hearts I have ever known, in game life and real life, and she does so much for ALL of us out of the goodness of her heart. Yes, she is Human, and not perfect, with all the baggage and mistakes that exists in our species. But she does so much for this game, and for us all... whether we see it or not. And if she wasn't here, or didn't have such a great, bright, and loving heart & soul, this game... all of us would be lesser for it... period. And fyi, I do NOT worship GL as some do in the game... I only did that for my wife, who has long since... passed, and the Lord.

So @Arisara, I ask only this... please lighten up, let go of the possible "anger" you may be feeling, look in the mirror, and know that GL is not perfect any more then you are. She is... Human. But with a heart and soul of gold only real care and love can bring. So yeah, that's my story. Sorry if it was long, and possibly detracted slightly from this thread, but I felt it needed to be said. As Wispur said, she is incredibly busy in the game, giving & leading all the things we do event wise (Hey GL, again, will you please, please take a breath occasionally lol), and she... like all the Dev's here... does this on her own free time. And no, she never asked for this "fame" you speak of. It was only developed by US, because of how much she does for US, not herself. Out of love, for us, and even you @Arisara. May we all be so blessed to be like her in this way. For when it is all said and done, at the end of our lives, there is only ONE question that matters, and that is...

How MUCH have we loved...

There are so many in this game who are beyond wonderful people, and I know if I ever asked for help they would (And have been) there for me in a heartbeat, so I try to help as much as I can in what ways I can, after all the smallest of good deeds can lead to a tidal wave of good coming into your life, and sometimes all someone needs is that little act of kindness to keep them going through a hard time 💛

Saying that there's no need to keep this negative conversation going, we should focus on moving forward with positive attitudes 🙂 I will try to be more up to date with the updates when I can help it and looking forward to all the future events I get the privilege to run!

In the "general" build, I've actually been using it as a changeling, I've basically replace Bolt And Strike with the 2 human ST attacks so rotation wise it works for me.

I just can't take off the training wheels yet and lose that sweet sweet psi resist like you do in our Patron and Queen, @Laucianna's build. 😁

My question is, any idea what the dps loss is from "goddess" build to "general" build?

General build is around 450 DPS, the Goddess build is around 750 DPS 💛

Feb. 12 today. "Last week's winners" still displays winners from TWO weeks ago. I understand Goddess has much (msr, hammi, costumes, more I'm sure I don't know about) to do and real life gets in the way. Still.. she's CHOSEN to obtain the fame she has (actually having a wiki page about your own game character is dedication to wanting that fame for sure). Keep up or get out. Posting new themes on the day of the contest is.. on occassion.. not enough time after work to create a costume.

Heya, sorry that I have not been as up to date as I would like, there's been a lot going on in my real life right now and this is just a game for me after all. I try to run things that people enjoy with no benefit to myself, and I am far from perfect but I try my best, you can always message me here, on discord, or in game and I am happy to answer as soon as I can.

Also for the record I didn't chose "fame" it's a game where I run a lot of events so people will recognise the name, the wiki page was fun for RP, please try to remember that people on the other end of the screen are still people who have real lives they need to attend to 💛

Again sorry for not being more up to date, will try to do better but can not promise I won't mess up 🙂

Just came back to CoX after a long time ..

Went to Champions online when it came out around architect time for CoX under NCSoft and I hated that Champions had serious issues at launch and later game up all hero games after architect came out as it was just the easy mode PLing set up and made it unnecessary for DEVs to bother with anything like storyline .. BUT i misses CoX

Kelds were NOT a hard class to play but they were complicated .. now they are lower damage than blasters with less suitability and survival abilities build in to the class..

one other thing being back in the last few weeks respecs are a pain to come by ..

usually you need to respec a few times between 10 to 20 as tool tips are badly set up (like fault from earth that needs to be used by you not flying and yet flight is a common travel power)

This game still plays very well over all and though the graphics could use an update it is still pretty good and runs on a fairly low end system

I still don't know what to do with warshades though and might go back to my fire aura and earth melee brute and farm for better mats as honestly I die 5 or 6 times every mission as my WS and stuck at 18 because I can't even hope for a respec which i have been waiting on since 10th when i used the first one and made a few bad choices

Both Peacebringers and Warshades are monsters at the end game if built and played right to the point they can do damage on par with Blasters whilst tanking on par with Tankers, early life of a Kheldian is hard for sure so I would suggest taking advantage of our passive that grants buffs from other AT's on the team to help sustain you until you can get perma Eclipse

In the "recommended" Peacebringer build I see that both Glinting Eye and Bright Nova Bolt are unenhanced. Is that due to them not falling into the recommended rotation (so no need to waste inf/merits on them) or was there some other reason?

Exactly those reasons 💛 we are quite tight when it comes to slots so don't want to waste them in powers we don't use 💛

that.. wont help against phasing out the players part

if hami is immune that means the players can still get phased

as someone who kicks people on sight who use dimension shift i vote to completely get rid of the power

But the league leader would be able to remove that player from the league allowing the league to be able to retry against Hamidon since the troll would not be able to phase them all, currently the troll does not have to be on the league to phase Hami out of being able to being hurt 💛

January 22

I've been running Hamidon raids for close to 2 years now, and although this community is great most of the time, recently there has been a player with a grudge against me wanting to ruin that for the entire league, and they can with a single toon out of the league on hidden with a single power (Something like Dimension shift) which causes the whole raid to fail and if we want to regroup to try again, they do it again.

This isn't a fluke as the first time they tried they did it early and we still managed to kill Hami, however the second time after they did it half way causing the league to wipe, and again today they did it half way and it failed.

A GM witnessed it happen twice the first time but the person still comes back hence why I am making this suggestion.

I am sure some people might say "Why waste dev time for 1 troll" and it's two simple facts, ANYONE can make a toon to do this and it's no cheese, it's clicking a button. The second is the simple fact this game is kept alive by the community and those within the community who run events, if every Hami I try to run fails because 1 toon presses a button then I'm not going to keep running them and waste mine and everyone else's time.

Excelsior absolutely CRUSHES the record and cruises past 2,000 defeats like it was nothing. Well done @Laucianna!

Secret is to have @Zaldra5 keep you awake during it! But yeah we smashed it even with a rough start and a ton of Kronos spawns too!
