Will the event end tomorrow? I'll be 2 days short for the completion. T_T
-
I'm glad to know that, I have a few chars that were only one or two races away to get the chariot.
-
Me too, except for the Foxbat part, but the weekly stores, the missions and the new alert were really cool.
-
The changes to the tailor sound nice, but please, put back the option to hide unowned pieces in the front tab or make it default to the last choice we made. The tailor lags a lot with the option disabled.
-
In time, I didn't know Shadow Skull has the same flaw, but imagine how badass it would be if you could use your powers, a big flying skull spitting balls of shadows or breathing fire. Those powers deserve some attention.
-
Yeah, but I mean, I imagine Scarab flight and Bat flight should work similarly, like all other TPs of a same type, just with a different skin, but right now, Scarab flight not only has all the advantages of a flight power plus makes you undetectable, while Bat flight works completely opposite, it makes you detectable by…

Still in the post's theme, does CO has any powers that resemble Alex's tentacles and tentacle burst (his "ultimate")? Fractal Aegis looks a bit like it, could also use chains, but both are not quite similar.
-
The news look nice for me, who have been away from the game for more than a year. Also, the art team's been doing great with the new costumes, that lizard head looks really cool. But I'm still waiting for the Force revamp. 🙂
-
I posted the build here because coincidentally I was thinking about how would a Blood Mage build come out and saw the OP asking for one. I was thinking primarily about the theme, so visuals counted and, as a blood mage, I think the build should be a bit more about life stealing and not so much about poison DOT, but you…
-
No problem, the advice is welcome! I'll see how it comes out with PRE instead of REC. I was a bit concerned about energy problems but with Spirit Reverb, Insight from EGO specs and Compassion, maybe it won't be an issue. I'll also see to the other points you guys made.
-
I was thinking mostly for a tanky thematic hybrid build since I play mostly solo PVE content, not exactly a specialized one. But I'll try to revise it because I really forgot about Compassion being PRE dependant. Shadow Embrace and Soul Vortex are good to apply Fear, which triggers Spirit Reverb, but there's indeed a lack…

I've been playing around with builds in the PTS and came up with the following: Blood Mage Hybrid v3.27:30 Super Stats Level 6: Ego (Primary) Level 10: Constitution (Secondary) Level 15: Recovery (Secondary) Talents Level 1: The Scourge (Con: 10, Ego: 10, Rec: 10, End: 8) Level 6: Ascetic (Con: 5, Ego: 5) Level 9: Worldly…

Hi, Flow, I'm aware of the issues with pets in cosmics, like Qwijibo's hearts or the hounds in Kiga. I have those pets mostly for theme and solo or minor groups contents. Do you think Collective Will might have the same problems? Medical Nanites gives nice healing, but with AOPM and all the buffs and debuffs, I've been…
-
No confirmation about the date? I've been farming for a few pieces of the event store but if it will end this thursday, I won't be able to get them, so I won't even try.
-
While I could see some point in the complaints about the premium pack and some features being taken away from Golds, complaining about the limits in costumes slots kinda sound to me like... complaining for the sake of complaining. Do anyone really uses all those different costumes for a single character? It makes more…
-
No notes for today's maintenance or have I missed something?
-
I was just wondering something yesterday... if those undead heroes take a large group of heroes to defeat them, and even so they weren't capable of stopping Destroyer, how powerful is he? How many heroes would take now if he was in a game event? Or maybe Takofanes is able to boost their power so the undead versions are…
-
The Archetypes are gone from the event store... I think their prices were too high to stay for only a week in the store. They were the main reason I was doing the event. :/
-
Yes, I think every costume piece should have at least those 3. Sometimes you want to match parts from different sets but one only has metal and other only has cloth or leather. A lot of armor chests, for example, only have metal materials.
-
Well, it seems that the level required really is 10, and not 8. As soon as my mercennary got to 10, the mission appeared with the Party Host. Got him a Wasp! :smile:
-
Yep, tried to log out and in with him for two nights now and still the mission isn't appearing for me... I think this is occurring with some other chars but since this is the only one which I want the bike and still couldn't get it, I didn't pay much attention for the others...
-
But the post says "This week you can claim a free Wasp bike and 5 anniversary gifts. Check the Anniversary Party host NPC in the Rennaissance Center! Must be level 8 to acquire the mission." Anyways I'll level him to 10 and see what happens.
-
The anniversary mission is not appearing for some of my characters... Why is that? He was at level 6 but I already leveled him to 9. As he's a mercenary with no super powers he could really use a bike. Am I failing to observe any requirements for the mission?
-
Oh, yet another reason for me to lament over not having my computer! Sounds nice, I wish I could log in and check it out.
-
I was really happy in seeing this, it's something I think should have been done years ago (speaking of taking off the limits inside the tailor), because it limits our options and creativity a lot. Many times I wanted to have a robe or trenchcoat combined with some certain pieces but the limitations would prevent me from…
-
Nice! This is the kind of stuff Cryptic should do to promote CO.
-
The option to attach images for me really doesn't work. But found a way with HTML. :) This is Sagittarius A (Alpha). He's supposed to be the incarnation of a black hole. But, since he is a gold character and I'm no longer a subber, I recreated him as a Scourge AT: And now he's Sagittarius D (Delta), a being made of cosmic…
-
Doesn't seem to work here... Shouldn't I see it in the preview when I do this?
-
I've followed this thread for a long time and saw a lot of nice costumes and ideas, guess I'll post a few of mine too, as soon as I figure out how to post images here. :tongue:
-
I'm already with Heroic Gear so I think the stats won't change a lot, but the mods aren't all the right ones yet. I think I'll have to gear for a bit of Rec so my equilibrium and energy builder be better. Though I picked Rush of Battle thinking of bosses who summon mobs, I think you're right and put the points in Mass…
-
Thanks for all your patience, guys. Since I finished farming the christmas event, I can relax a bit now, and took Asa-Tyr back to the Powerhouse and used my last retcon (T_T). I've been playing with him this week and found that in normal missions with more balanced groups I can tank easily, but in bigger fights with lots…
-
Flow, I finnaly understood Conviction, thanks. It's not about the amount of healing, but about the really short CD, and it's nice for a build with MSA. Unless I'm fighting enemies with very strong attacks, Conv. has been very useful. This build has been very fun for PVE. But I must confess I feel a bit squishy when I'm…
-
Flow, I switched INT for DEX and with a bit more proper gearing I got almost 40% crit chance. The cost of powers suffered a bit but I think the damage now is pretty decent. I know Crushing Wave from the cone area powers is kinda suboptimal, but it fits better both the char concept and my play style, I was also missing a…
-
I spent the day tweaking the build, checking the tips you guys gave me and trying to adapt to what I wanted. XD Came to this: PowerHouse (Link to this build) Name: Archetype: Freeform Super Stats: Level 6: Ego (Primary) Level 10: Constitution (Secondary) Level 15: Intelligence (Secondary) Talents: Level 1: The Scourge…
-
I see this build is more crit and avoidance based... Never tried that. Having DEX SS would make up for not having EGO, right? Looks interesting. The offensive powers I'd like to mantain the ones I chose (think of it more about force/gravity than earth magic), Force Detonation and Fissure work well with MSA and also Fissure…
-
Thanks for the answers. Some questions, though? Thanks for the reminder. If I remember correctly, my Impulse char doesn't suffer this penalty. Why does that happen? Any advice on an equivalent power to substitute the Cascade? Won't doing this two things cut a lot of my survivability?
-
"Ugly" sometimes can be very subjective. Some like the outlines, some don't. It's an aesthetic choice, and repeating the word "ugly" a dozen times in a post won't convince those who like it that it's really ugly. I like the outline and sometimes only disable it to improve the performance. But when I do that, I get the…
-
Yesterday, I think, I bought 500Z through Steam.
-
I have an Automaton char and I really don't think it's a bad power. It's a good power with a bad mechanic. (I also disagree with most people's opinions about the AT, it has its flaws, but it's really not a bad AT) I don't think it's too hard to get the kills, since the AT has some pretty strong powers, Rocket Fist and…
-
I haven't had the disposition to farm as much as I wanted, but have collected a bit. As my sub just expired, I'll convert part in ZEN to buy the Scourge AT for one of the chars I created during sub time. The rest, probably I'll use to buy Mystic Flight in the Q-Store or convert it too to buy the Legacy Power Armor costume…
-
Bonus: Ifrit Angra: he's a brazillian guy who received his powers from an ancient indigenous god of fire. Never wrote his story, but he fights against nature destruction in Brazil and I don't have idea what the heck he's doing in MC. lol
-
Wow, there's a lot of awesome concepts here. And I've learned that I still have a lot of costume pieces to unlock/buy by the way. I want to show a few of my favorites: This is Sagittarius A. He's some kind of humanoid incarnation of a black hole. This is basically my main char, Bahadur (the freeform version of an older…
-
I don't really know what to say about this. I sometimes avoid commenting such topics because, as a gay man myself, I'm sensitive to some types of comments. The fact is I don't like drastic changes in a character out from the blue. Bobby never showed any signs of being gay, and doing things like this to a character gives…
-
For the last 2 weeks, every time I play CO, after a few minutes, I start to get all this lag too and my connection gets really crappy. I don't know if CO can be the cause, but it only happens after I open CO. I end up having to close CO and restart my modem a few times before it gets ok again.
-
Hey, can I get at least part of the credit for this idea? (Please? lol) Hey, it's nice to see that some of our suggestions, like the resources cap increase too, were taken into consideration and made real. I think we had some improvement through the time CN were with us. Let's hope this continues with the new/old team. :)
-
You don't say! I was obviously talking about lag that normally isn't there. The game itself was lagging as hell the last 3 to 4 days, I think since the last maintenance, to the point I had a couple of times to just stop playing and close it for a while. For now, the launcher and MC took a bit longer to load, but in-game it…
-
Seeing this I wonder if all the lag I'm having when CO is open is connected to the game. I close CO and my connection goes back to normal.
-
Thanks for kindly replying, guys! Let's see if I understood correctly. All the ATs I'm converting to Gold can be converted back to silver when I unsub, since I'm not making any changes. The FF slots I bought will remain unchanged. Right now I have 14 New gold character slots available, 13 empty since I already used one. I…
-
2 character slots cost about 1400Z if I'm not mistaken, and a new AT costs 1150Z... If my opinion matters in any means, I think a fair price for a FF would be something like Avianos said, between 2000 and 2500Z. Obviously, I'd prefer 2000. I'd probably already have a lot more than the 2 FF slots I have now, which I bought…
-
X-Men's Storm also had a cape a bit similar to that at some point (don't know now, I don't read comics anymore). But I think it's probably a bit hard to make it work nicely with characters animations. It wouldn't be bad if Cryptic could do something like that though, even though I don't play female chars.
