  • Pound Town ...but I'll include pictures later
  • Alright, I took what you had and made it MSA compatible. PowerHouse (Link to this build) Name: Archetype: Freeform Super Stats: Level 6: Intelligence (Primary) Level 10: Dexterity (Secondary) Level 15: Endurance (Secondary) Talents: Level 1: The Glacier Level 6: Coordinated Level 9: Accurate Level 12: Investigator Level…
  • I hate the casting motion for Radiance, but it actually has a usable function as a mini-heal Eldritch Bolts is cooler looking but who even uses energy builders so idk your call
  • Let's not look a gift horse in the mouth. CO provided us with a free content update and we should definitely not complain about that in favor of something that brings in revenue. I'm sure the temptation is strong to focus on nothing but revenue-raising projects. I get what you're saying. The Questionite store, among other…
  • Think about it again then. You wouldn't sell a key for 100g if all available rewards from it were greater than 100g - that would be ripping yourself off. Hence, your suggestion that keys have items worth minimum 100g because that's what people currently sell them for it not a good one, because this would simply drive key…
  • So why use the Veteran's Core of Might for a measly +13 Con/Rec when you could throw in another Gambler's for extra crit chance?
  • Following the slippery slope of logic here: If people price-gouge keys to the point where nobody buys them, then the sellers will lower their price so people will buy them. Base desire to get globals for keys will outweigh their desire to overprice them. People will pay what they are willing to pay, and no more. An…
  • You've confused me. Where's the wrongdoing?
  • Why, nothing! They're working just as hard on fixing CoS and PFF as they are the rest of the game! :biggrin:
  • Is it bad that I already knew who this was directed at before reading their reply and without ever seeing whatever prior discussion started this You lot are super predictable
  • I fully admit, it still seems really strange that the introduced play-to-unlock-powers AT would be so poorly put together. If it was a fun build, then sure, you could have fun taking it to 40...but it isn't. It is tedious and painful.
  • You know what? The key sale. I'll take it as if it were a Zen sale. Thanks Cryptic!
  • asking the real questions
  • And then we just wouldn't have any need for any other passives
  • Power armor tank, Defiance + Constitution + Int + End so he just stands there and weapons pop off him and fire but he doesn't ever move
  • God Let Me Give You My Money Already Cryptic
  • Hey, thanks for that update! Maybe if I'm quick with the button-mashing I can score a completion on this Alert with my support guy after all. :biggrin:
  • Additionally, if the giant robot toys manage to kill you off right as they die and you aren't in the room for the ending cutscene, you get nothing. If the team does a bug-fix run through this event after it comes down, there's another good one to hit.
  • The Alert. I don't appear on the rank at all, and there is no end-of-Alert reward. I haven't been to the open-world fight yet on my support character.
  • me right now i'm ready for some black harlequin u no
  • Seriously though, yes, this would be a good thing. It's a pain to have extras of some and only lack certain tokens and wait 2-3 weeks for that rampage to come back around because it just. won't. drop.
  • I'm glad you enjoy it. I feel the same way, this is really the only MMO that I keep coming back to. The superhero niche is the one for me.
  • uh right now DO YOU HEAR THAT CRYPTIC I CANT BUY ANYTHING RIGHT NOW IT WOULD BE A SHAME IF YOU IMMEDIATELY STARTED A SALE
  • but this time i want to let them know they're having a sale soon so i can put my money in it
  • Alright then, I suppose I'll just hope it happens around Christmas. Don't let me down Cryptic This is your chance
  • I think it's a great idea. I'd love to be in a team PVP tournament.
  • You had my sympathy at "my homage got reset for cloning without warning" ...and then you repeatedly pulled out this "I should get special privileges for being Gold" card and lost it. I'm Lifetime, still spending money on the game, and I fully expect the same treatment as a Silver player because I expect userbase-wide…
  • Didn't get the memo, but do care! Thanks for letting me know!
  • Glad to hear this is being fixed. I really want a Stealth aura, and I never was lucky enough to get one from a lockbox D:
  • What I'd like to know is how he got that much HP. Even with R9 mods, I don't think I can get mine that high.
  • Elec buffs by a larger margin? I thought it said it was the same in the tooltip. Hmmm... I suppose if I was mixing up powersets then I can see picking Electric Form. As far as mere recovery/equilibrium, tho, Ionic Reverberation does such a good job that I haven't even had to worry about anything energy-wise on superstats.
  • I tested it out on PTS. Overpower gives me 0.8% greater Crit chance when fully equipped (296 STR) and the Vindicator spec gives me about 6% more Crit chance on my Shred attack (9% more by dropping an extra point in Slaughter.) Going Wardicator only boosted me by 1% total damage strength in Offense, though, and didn't…
  • Fixing all the bugs in this game isn't a simple task, it's more of one hell of a project.
  • I'm sad to see you go. You were a cool presence on the game and a huge asset to the community, especially here on the forums. That said, I totally understand that if you can't enjoy the game anymore (even if that's because of others who play it and not the game itself) that there's no point in playing. I hope this topic…
  • Switching to Wardicator would definitely boost my offense/defense, but then I'd lose the ability to switch to Hybrid role and continue fighting from that role. I'd also lose the Exhausting Strikes benefit and the faster AD rotation. I seem to remember Overpower giving really weak results for the investment. Is it really…
  • Nah, I'm going with R2 Shred. I've got a ton of offense/defense out of the spec trees combined with 6 CON mods, so I'm feeling like a switch to R2 might boost me enough. I wanna work Massacre in too, but I'm so loathe to give up on Unbreakable...Masterful Dodge is a wonderful AD, but I currently switch between the two and…
  • Yeah, I think I'm going to go R3 on Shred. Having a group debuff is cool and all, but I'm more concerned with producing my own damage so that I can hold threat. I also didn't realize Parry would produce that spin-kick. It'll get replaced for sure, though I've still to decide which one would best. Retaliation would probably…
  • The quick-and-easy solution I see for this involves those AOs. Putting them at r3 is nice, but if you can deal with a few extra seconds between activations (and, if you're like me, you aren't perfect at the AO/AD rotation game) then you can drop the ranks on them to build up Unbreakable into a much more effective spike…
  • FYI, the costume for that build is just beautiful. A+
  • Agreed - the main reward should be based on the performance of the team on the whole. I don't personally like the way top DPSers are exclusively rewarded for that role. It encourages people away from support roles and toward a very narrow selection of high damage powers/sets for the purposes of the event. I know I prefer…
  • I've seen some pretty massive spikes from Blade ATs, and the Tempest puts out some massive damage too. I'd expect those too, taking advantage of AT damage, could compete with freeforms.
  • Tempest and Savage for sure. Tempest satisfies your need for massive damage, and the Savage gives you free healing, unlimited energy, and high HP. You can DPS or tank as you please. That'd be my choice if I only did two characters and they were restricted to archetypes.
  • Aye, thanks from here too, it's actually been rather exciting to see all the activity!
  • Powered by an infusion of a secretly altered Miracle-Gro formula, the Reawakened AuTomato is a mystery to all: is it fruit, or vegetable? Alternate larger images available here and here.
  • Aye, this mission is extremely fun, but the knockback is incredibly annoying. That really ought to be dialed back. Zero G knockback means I spend a lot of my time fighting from halfway inside the ceiling.
  • Alright, I'll give those two tips a try. Next time I attempt the mission, I'll try to talk to none of the heroes and I'll follow the base commander so I don't lose him. With any luck, that'll allow my nemesis to be killable - as is, he doesn't engage and can be brought to 0 HP without dying. Thanks for your help guys, I…
  • I'll be honest, I'm incredibly psyched for this content and the upcoming Part II. Especially Part II, in fact, with the Mechanon Recognition. Keep up the good work, CN!
  • Oh man, agreed. I've removed Power Gauntlet from my bar so far (same energy cost to do a lineup attack and trying to coordinate charges for a /chance/ to interrupt isnt my thing) and just run around using the energy builder and lining up opponents for multi-hit Rocket Punches. Frankly, I'm loving it.
  • 100% agreed, I don't buy vehicles because they're never the right color scheme. Well, I've bought a few, but I actually ended up re-making my character's costume to match. I'd rather just be able to recolor vehicles.
  • It comes from a mad scientist turned gardener, obviously. The Awakened Automato!
