  • I'm not happy that I have to queue for the Lemuria and Monster Island crises. I remember doing these solo back in the day and they go quite well. These are an excellent intro to these zones and feel quite edgy, can't they be made into 1 - 5 instances? Not happy about Drifter salvage as such, can't we just have silver…
  • FWIW In The Secret World (TSW) a number of bosses use indirect fire attacks periodically, for example carpet bombing from the Mayan Battlemage as it's known is a series of explosions marching across the battlefield. Course there's no travel powers in TSW (and by god I miss them) and the arena is smaller than one would like…
  • I haven't been thru the entire 17 pages so pardon me if this has come up before... 1. Motivation Some kind of reward that ultimately enables you to gain 4 slot gear. There needs to be a good reward from PVP that you can't get any other way in order to really stimulate things. 2. Inclusion - you don't have to be a PVP build…
  • Done this twice in the past 3? days. 1st go with a freeform Defiance + fire build w self heal. No probs killed him down and left. 2nd go with a Void - ran into the heals up to 2/3rds health thing, found myself wishing for Lifedrain, left and resolved to come back at level 35.
  • Guess no-one but me remembers Snakes threads on the game being way too easy pre F2P. Still nice to know we got the real priorities straight here so get on with the PVP arguments.
  • Guess you're all happy with the somewhat easy PVE game we got then. Been doing a lot of TSW - awesome being on dungeon teams once again. Shrugs if I were to try and rebalance the game I'd roll back everything to a pre F2P state then start introducing a few of the better? changes we've had. Gear would be reduced to Pre F2P…
  • Hmm I already have a squishy DPS with no dodge to speak of... I made an electric form Dex/End/Ego build a while back and when it came to level 40 I decided to not bother trying to make it a dodge build. Instead I went for Breastplate of Defense and a green gem, greater defence = greater offence with best defence skill.…
  • This is creepy.... will one of you two speed up or slow down Ohmygawd I'm doing it too...
  • Dream Park.
  • Hyperion is also the name of Raynors battlecruiser in Starcraft 2. Just by sheer coincidence it has "hero armor" and a buncha other capabilities. Hyperion Devastation Escape from Mar Sara cutscene
  • Can't be bothered to read 18 pages of thread, I have a question (which might well have come up before). Is this a case of nerfing one thing to promote the sale of another? Specifically will the new gear make up for the dodge/crit nerfs by allowing us to stack more gamblers gems? Is it really as simple as we wanna make…
  • AFAICT swinging for example does make you go a bit faster and is easier than on dry land. You don't have to keep pushing space. As for breathing - you got the option to do a breathing apparatus helmet thing on the character creator. If it matters that much use it. More missions? For whom? The what 50 odd players who…
  • Shrugs why not make support mandatory for lairs? After all nobody's doing em any more! Self sufficiency meaning able to do anything other than solo 5 or 10 man content? Just a thought.
  • Thnx Gerberatetra and others for some decent numbers. Sigh keep wishing for roll back to pre FTP.
  • Has anyone run a levelling build with the nerfs yet? Reason I ask is I don't recollect having great dodge gear on anything under lev 35. Is EM now mandatory for my LR builds?
  • I think Deadalive is the correct phrase, according to another thread (which said state of the game but was really another doom thread) we are unlikely to receive any content other than ****ing alerts so yeah it's kinda undead really.
  • I understand completely and have been on a coupla Bursts w no Skarns Bane which I quit coz it was a waste of time. I'm just saying he's not unbeatable, tho it's a real good idea not to bother with an AoQephoth burst unless you're packing SB. Either it's on the team or it's not and no amount of DPS will make up for it if…
  • Trauma and Skarns Bane are the best things for Ao Qephoth and if nobody in the team brought them then either. 1. The alert will definitely fail if it is a burst or 2. The alert may fail depending on how much DPS there is. I've taken him as a level 40 in a dockside dustup w Ebon Ruin mostly - I didn't detect any Skarns Bane…
  • Back in the old days it was like this... http://arcane-sorcery.blogspot.co.uk/2009/12/aura-of-primal-majesty.html Scaling with presence and not SS.
  • Is that a lemurian going to a halloween party as Godzilla? Awesome...
  • Oooh thanx ravenforce don't forget to play the game and otherwise goof off.
  • Lolz took my electric form squishy into Forum Malvanum twice yesterday (or was it early this AM), first effort gave me a level 35 and buncha other lowbies including a 9. Ducked outta that one - just couldn't see the point. Next one gave me a whole loada 40s to play with - we failed - Duratok went down but Drogan Lar with…
  • Coupla things... What's a "face value" in this context? Can you tell me anything about emotionally based violence? For example killer shoots victim but then goes over to body and empties magazine into the corpse. Massive overkill sort of thing. Killer say has been hurt by victim in the recent or not so recent past. In…
  • Yeah gratz to U! I remember the first time I managed to do something I thought was next to impossible, why not brag a lil? Snakebitewildlife wherever you are just shut up ok!
  • LR tank has now gone from 55% dodge on live to 60% on PTS fbm. Running through Resistance atm gonna try and do the Endbringers without a Mega D suit. Sword Cyclone - intermittent bug - the animation does not always show up - has happend twice once in combat and once killing chairs at Harmons speech I thought it was rather…
  • Sigh.. my prob is that in trying to nerf the dodge gear the nerf renders LR almost worthless. Oh and btw the justice pieces grant a 25 bonus to stats if you wear two or more of em, that said R5 mods go from 55 to 82 on my test character. Glitch!?
  • Been running a non dodge offensive passive electric in the Mega D fest, survival is a bit hit and miss but I have indeed stayed upright for the whole event at least...... twice. Coupla things that interest me how exactly the new offence works and will the new gear have breastplate of defence option? For what it's worth..…
  • Anyone considered the bigger picture for a moment? Q grinding - best place to do it - the Ren Centre. Reasons to go to any other places errm well not a lot really. We have servers that are virtually empty along with their unused lairs and a nasty thought keeps popping up... Use em or lose em! Is PWE gonna keep running…
  • There was another significant change pre On Alert in the F2P patch (I think that's what it was). I'll try and summarise The old days Passive strength depended on specific Stats for example Shadow Form depended on End and Con to gain decent attacking and defensive bonus. We only had two SS to choose back in the day. This…
  • Bug - Bought an R6 gem box from Silver Recognition vendor and can't open it. Is there no easy way to get hold of mods to put in these new bits of kit? I usually store mods in my hideout bank. R3 Lightning Reflexes circa 55% usually now down to 20%, there are other games I could play.
  • Small point (almost lost in here) but Ravenforces remark about [Spirit of Justice mod] has such a lot of merit. This could really kickstart lair running again, right now there's no point in more content or adjusting lairs coz everyone's too busy alerting. If there was serious gain to be had from lair running however, not…
  • Go away, too busy switching zones and smashing Mega D's P.S. And attempting to relog!
  • Another option would be to sell ff character slots one at a time (for a reasonable price), you want another character buy another slot ala pay once play forever. Both these options buy one slot at a time or buy individual powersets would make a real mess of what we have running already. This prolly relegates these ideas to…
  • Zombie apocalypse - the more chaotic the situation the more likely it is that non PVP builds can pull off the odd win. Used to be that this was farmed back in the day! Sigh wouldn't mind dipping my toe into PVP again - ****** On Alert.
  • Totally not a villain game and never likely to be... In order to have a villain side you will need 40 levels of content, that content is likely to test the imagination of the dev team doing it severely. Heroes respond to emergencies, villains initiate the emergencies, it's kinda hard to think up story arcs to fit this and…
  • log out, log in or.... Heroically run away a lot and when you're out of range hit the head icon on the left of your minimap aka the socrates button - this will give the option to quit instance or.... Teleport to ren centre device - heard it was broken and infinite use
  • Seraphim gives serious healing bonuses INCLUDING SELF HEALS. It used to get pretty ridiculous (maybe it still does) coz Resurgence for example when used w Seraphim and in the Support role would heal me for more health than I had in the first place. Conviction was like a 50% health heal, this on a Pre/Con build. So pluses…
  • Lolz you never heard of Eve Online? some game!? But getting back to the OP Agreed ditch the 250 limit it is meaningless now.
  • O key O key O key O key O key O key O key O key. Thnx crosschan much appreciated.
  • Incorrect.. It was an Adventure Pack and was intended to provide a challenge for 1 to 5 freeformers, not be a walkover for ATs who don't know how to play in any case. It had a rather spectacular launch, we called it the "Great Demonflame Lagstorm", due to like one line of code buried somewhere in it whenever players logged…
  • I'm feeling pretty toxic atm... Did a smash earlier and noticed I had a lorra aggro and there didn't seem to be much coming from my team mates. Checks roster and 2 x 6s, an 8 and a 12 + my level 23/24 blade. Beats feet! What a ****ing waste of time! But hey we get this alert bull**** shoved down our throats whenever we…
  • Err yes there are level 41 - 43 mobs in some places. Shrugs I think it was there for a bit of additional challenge, you meet level 43s in Ruins of Andrith, Manwhatadragalore? and Apocalypse Aversion. Other than that they are restricted (mostly) to certain sections of Monster Island and Lemuria. Cept of course for that…
  • No reason to do lairs: leads to no lairs being done! No reason to do APs/CSs, no reason to do any ****ing thing other than hang round the ****ing Ren Centre. Guess what? Loadsa players who've never heard of anything other than Mil Cit. How bout rolling the whole mother****ing On Alert patch back and giving us our game…
  • Yeah this is nonsense And I do hate you:mad:
  • Yeah jonsills is spot on on the first bit. As regards to build advice I'd recommend an armored epidermis and conviction tapping. Get well soon and enjoy your time in bed.
  • excerpts from one of the most **** awful movies ever made? Sigh don't get me started! Laconic humor is not shouted, there were 300 spartans and approx 9500 other guys and the whole Athenian navy...... No must resist. Someone made an intersting point in COX chat about trying to do an Archon (Starcraft) style character. For…
  • Where are the monorails? Where are the hovercraft? and the rocket ships?
  • Many happy returns (whatever that means). Ahh reminds me of the time I got Army of One perk for the first time just prior to a celebration. sigh i was so pleased with myself
  • That worked had2merge Thnx very much - gotta go save Sapphire byeeee!
