I remember an old story that American soldiers fighting the Japanese during WWII would always use passwords with L's in them to trip up Japanese infiltrators. So if the password was "Ali Baba" and what you got back was "Ari Baba"... expect trouble. Chinese in contrast has L's but no R's. So it's not uncommon to have"fried…

Both are reverse lunges, but they have significant differences. Breakaway shot is a pistol attack followed by a reverse lunge and has an option to pull an enemy with you. I think it also refreshes Defiant. Evasive Maneuvers is a purely defensive reverse lunge that boosts Dodge and has an option for a 50% chance to placate…

I might be stating the obvious here, but some of the Foxbat Cred comes in a box that you have to open. Have you been doing that?
-
Or it could just be Matt Hunt's dementia talking. But time travel sounds more interesting, and we already know that Foxbat has made several trips to the past to help avert the Apocalypse.
-
Probably should also mention that it's pronounced "Spo-can", not "Spo-cane".
-
Kaiserin made a couple of pony templates a while back. I have no idea why I remember these sorts of things.

Who in their right mind would buy more than five freeform slots (if that many)? For $300, you can get a lifetime account and with it effectively unlimited freeform slots. Plus, the $15 (or whatever) fee for a build slot can be used to monetize current lifetime subscribers, whereas the $50 freeform slot fee cannot.
-
Suggestion: Now would be a good time to add a turn-in for the infamous [Foxbat IOU] mission item. (You can get it from the Foxbat being mugged in an alley about a half block north of Mercy Hospital.) It should reward an equally useless item, though. Like a Key to the City. Or the crafting recipe for Greater Servitor Serum.

I'm wondering if the token drop rate is being improperly modified by the Questionite diminishing returns curve. I have been noticing that the majority of my token drops have been on the first run of the day for a character (1500 Q). I started tracking drops to see if there was anything to my perception of the drop rate, or…

I thought he was in 5 Guys in a Limo... and he was, kind of, at the 2:30 mark.

I've actually noticed the same thing even though I use a controller instead of mouse/keyboard. I had to clean up a couple of my own messes twice in Recruiting Drive because I shot someone to the right of me or behind me when the auto-target was highlighting the boss. (Maybe this is related to an old bug that got fixed long…
-
Also when the legacy devices got nerfed, the devs also unbound them all so that players could sell off excess copies or distribute them to other characters. The accusation of the Dodge/Crit changes as a nerf to Legion gear is weak to begin with -- it affects all gear that grants Dodge and Crit. Also left out were buffs to…
-
I dunno. The August 1 release date is a tell that Marvel expects it to be a flop. If they were expecting success, they would release it earlier in the summer. Hollywood usually releases niche or prospective titles in February/March, potential blockbusters in April-July ("Summer"), expected flops in August, Oscar-bait in…

There's a guy in a plaid suit in the UNTIL courtyard. Talking to him should get you into UNITY headquarters.
-
One thing with the lockboxes is that they always contain at least two pieces of Drifter Salvage (if I remember correctly). Drifter Salvage acts as a backstop against losing streaks. Even if you go on an epic losing streak with lockbox jackpots, you can still get something from the Drifter Store if you open enough of them.…
-
I'm guessing it's Zerstorenstern ("Destroyer-Star"), uncloaked. (Mentioned in Champions Villains, Volume 1).
-
And if I remember correctly, pressing Esc dismisses the Call for Help / Recover window entirely, which will leave you stuck unless someone picks you up or you are forced to leave the instance. Missed out on a reward drop once because of this. I had to change up my controller bindings to ensure that the Menu (Esc) command…

Qwijibo on top of Renaissance Center. With photo-bombable ending cut scene, maybe.

Case in point.

It's been a while since I have done Sky Command too, but here's a few additional things I remember: * Top deck has consoles that activate turrets. The vent healer can heal the turrets to keep them running. * If you are a tank class, your best role is probably to defend the healers since they can draw a ton of agro. * If…

Champions Online 2? Sparkling Vampire Black-Redders Online? Call of Honor World Battlefield Online?

While we're waiting, can someone track down a copy of "Amazing"? It's kind of like "Tron", but with more Scottie Pippen. http://youtu.be/kQSMxbYaksc
-
Well, the winning costume entry came with a mini-bio.
-
Note to self: You got knocked out a few times back in the Destroid Invasion and forgot to turn your toggle back on. That's why you were always running out of energy.
-
I think to load in controller keybinds, you need to type in "/bind_load" (for ent_keybinds.txt) or "/bind_load_file <filename>" (for a differently named file) while running your alternate character to actually load in the keybind file. The Load UI command in Options only works for basic keybinds.
-
I'm thinking this is more like "opening a 'dialog'".
-
This would probably be the most feasible broom with the current game engine technology. If I understand correctly, the whole reason why vehicles were done as devices rather than travel powers is that there aren't any animations for attacking from the mounted position. If the witch broom is introduced, it would either have…
-
I think you're on the right track here. I often have my backup stall on me during UNITY special assignments. What seems to be happening is that you damaged but not destroyed objects during the fight. These damaged objects are still registering as hostiles, and this stops your companion, but they won't attack the object.…
-
Thanks for doing this, and be sure to review the Top Two Player Issues thread that Drannic started a year ago.
-
It should be noted that stat mods come in two varieties: enhancements and armoring. Heroic and Legion gear can take the following stat mods: Offense: 2 enhancements Defense: 2 armoring Utility: 1 enhancement and 1 armoring It doesn't matter exactly where each stat mod goes, but the enhancement/armoring type must match the…

Check the original post again. Pulsewave updated his Power Armor, Genome, and Hexed builds for On Alert, but the other builds are out of date.
-
You only have 3 double-quotes per line, so they are unbalanced. Also, don't put in angle brackets in the actual command line -- it's a convention to denote placeholders. So try: fly.txt: t "+PowerTrayExec 14 $$ setactivecostume 0 0 $$ bind_load_file land.txt" land.txt: t "+PowerTrayExec 14 $$ setactivecostume 0 1 $$…

I prefer New Order myself.
-
I'm guessing you can estimate the number of new accounts by keeping track of the "New Champions" supergroup numbers coming out of the tutorial. Since the supergroup capacity is 500, if the New Champions supergroup number goes up by 8 during a week, that means 4,000 new players created a character during that week.
-
Sounds like a good set of attacks. For a build, s3rju's Munitions/Critical Hits Build should be close to what you need. Just replace some of his attacks with the ones you want.
-
Most builds do need a bit a REC for energy management, but most of the time I cover it with gear, mods, and/or talents. I usually go with INT as the third stat since it provides energy discount, cooldown reduction, and some stealth sight. Here's my take on a baseline Heavy Weapons tank build for The Imperial. I left a lot…

How about Force Feedback?
-
Actually, I think the original premise is flawed. Since this is a level 30 alert, heroes in their 20's should do well because they are getting buffed to level 30. Heroes in their 30's will do poorly because they are getting nerfed to 30. Heroes who are 40 should do well because they have access to Heroic/Legion gear, but…
-
Ha! It took me a little too long to figure this one out...
-
Yes, sometimes the Red Winter Alert ambient sirens persist after leaving that alert.
-
I'm thinking that this event can be better served with two separate alerts: "Qualifying Rounds" -- standard 5-man level 30 alert "Championship Event" -- level 40 alert with Firewing as final boss
-
Star Trek Online's Legacy of Romulus launches on the 21st if I remember correctly. Given past networking issues, it's probably for the best to do this event early.
-
I was wondering about that too. Then over a year later, I encountered a Cobra Lord master villain named Thunderbird over in the Westside docks. No dialog or anything, but he's probably the reason why that name is on the restricted list.
-
There were two versions of each Crafted Travel Power. The base version (for example, the [Cutting-Edge Storm Rider Augmentation]) was Bind on Pickup. However, there was an optional project that would convert this item to Bind on Equip (for example, the [Cutting-Edge Storm Rider 1.1 Augmentation]) so that you can trade it…

Is your chariot also named Caliga?
-
Nice find! You should post it in the list of protips to stop that thread from becoming necrotic.

Unfortunately, Hostess went bankrupt a few months ago. Apollo Global Management LLC plans on bringing back Apollo Global Management(R) Twinkies(R) this summer, but I can't find any news regarding Apollo Global Management(R) Fruit Pies. The pies have been Nerf(R)ed. Edit: Character set shenanigans.

Maybe have "Vibora Bay (Day)" as an alternate starting zone?

(I saw what you did with that meteor thing.)
