  • Also unlike other toggle powers, it's energy return is insignificant. So if you don't have a good energy unlock power or doesn't need energy that much (like pet masters above) you are way better of with another form power. IDF feels like shooting your own foot. :frown:
  • If you can fly, fly on top of Therakiel and use engine from there. My problem wasn't survival tho, I couldn't maintain stupid thing long enough which was frustrating.
  • I completed VB Apocalypse without problems. During Valerian fights, instead of my regular leave the boss fight last tactic, I went directly for Scarlet. With two doses of Lightning Arc she acted normal and missions completed without any problems.
  • No problem. You can push this event to next anniversary so that will give one year to resolve issues and more testing. However that kinda left "Dr. Destroyer is Back" story in a weird spot. Maybe if you guys determined about making that thing work, Drifter Destoryer mission can be repeated(like Bloodmoon event) till…
  • Thanks for all the great info guys. I felt like I should make a choice between Ebon Ruin and Skarn's. Overdrive is a nice energy unlock power and will help greatly with Life Drain spam I picked Skarn's. As they are not direct heals, I included Support Drones to the build. I imagined they are summoned parts of witch's robot…
  • Hmm... That is very promising. I was thinking Fissure for melee toons and Life Drain for ranged ones but when I visualize it, team members don't usually stick closely at range so that will be wasted. Started to think tank(melee)/healer will be more viable option for that kind of build.
  • I think this one will be a live and learn build for me. So many unknown, like does presence/support role boost healing of those powers. How some advantages works with said powers, like Healing share advantages from Forms. I will try it out with following build and see what will happen. PowerHouse (Link to this build) Name:…
  • Upheavel is giant fist power which I love. However it is unimpressive damage wise. Its advantage allow you to use it from 50 ft. range at cost of higher energy cost.
  • Freeform. You can make your own character. It does it with such freedom, you don't have to be class/role/AT X to use powers you like. Nemesis system is another good thing. As they are part of your heroic experience, I see nemeses as semi-PCs. So you have more than one characters created during a toon's life. Adventure…
  • Yeah it works but as it has a timer to apply mend buff, you can barely see it on solo fights. Enemies go down before it kicks in. For me minions go down on one hit, higher ones take one or two hits depending on crits. I only saw mend buff during Viperia fight on Lantern. As my friend locked out I had to solo her.
  • Another Lemuria lover here. However I agree with location finding. I remember spending 3 days finding Stingray for Amphibian's mission. Even wiki help didn't do much good. Also Lemuria has Baelrath. :redface:
  • Thanks for advices. I put some ranks as I, first time on my heroes had spare points. Like the Force of Will and Shield etc. I will put them on healing powers instead and rank them up. If I go into detail; 1- I picked Energy Shield to pass first 3 powers. Now he is using electric EB, Lightning Arc and Sparkstorm which I can…
  • Thanks for starting this thread, putting effort to keep it updated Angel. :smile:
  • Why all the hussle? If they removed from the game instead of putting time and effort to make them comeback in some form, make them available to everyone... in other words add them to default costumes list.
  • If you want to tackle VIPER asap, go to Canada Crisis/Canada Wilderness at level 15. However I strongly reccomend finishing West Side arc. While some missions on the arc are bit meh, last missions are worth all trouble.
  • I think VIPER is more similar to Council/5th Column than Arachnos. At least they share similar roots. ARGENT feels like Crey/Malta mixture. DEMON is similar to my favorite CoH enemy group, Circle of Thorns. Westside gangs = Hellions, Trolls and other street gangs. Qularr and Gadroon are CO's answer to Rikti. Tho' those are…
  • Also I just noticed Serpent Armor belt was available to my character during creation. I still don't own that costume pack.
  • /Signed Also I can take that one step further and declare my wish to see Bunker Buster heroes other areas of the game. As much as villains are cool, I think heroes are cooler.
  • First let me say my memory is weak. Now, did you re-roll Iris during weekend, Trailturtle? I guess I am recalling an Iris and Iris Irregular from weekend alerts. Normally I don't notice other characters but Iris is a quite looker. She has an awesome costume design.
  • Hmmm... I was having so much fun so didn't count levels. Globe Guardian: Created during weekend and hit level 25-26. Sitting in his slot for now. Knightly Defender: Well couldn't really remember what level he was but he ended up level 37 as I was desperately trying to start Vibora Bay Apocalypse. As I learned VBA still…
  • Yes there are two standing in ren cen. However I never saw glittery undies coming from gifts. Well Kitty, you can use your kitten charm and lure one of those glittery brief guys/gals to an away from unwanted eyes spot. Then you can hit back of their head with a hard and heavy object... like a heavy truck. Slip away the…
  • Are you sure this will work Logan? Not tried it recently but form my earlier experiences (before PWE, which I doubt it has anything to do with file handling), for being able to load a costume file, you need to change user name. For Example: If downloaded image named: Screenshot_Bluhman_Huge I need to convert it to:…
  • For me most heroes flash as pictures in my head. I guess it is part of being a comic-book-artist-wannabe. I try to reflect that image into the game. Those heroes stick with me for a long time. Sometimes just pick single set(like earth/sorcery or air) and build character just to see what that set offer. Those are usually…
  • Maybe Wiki link shines a bit light to conversation going on here. http://http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Champions_(role-playing_game) Check the powers section and you will see many familiar hero names. So for me, it is not weird to think our CO characters like some established heroes. Like all superhero MMOs and RPG…
  • I remember Trickshot Kid from a commissioned art. He looks nice in CO as well.:biggrin:
  • I will do whatever I can. As my old CoH modus operandi was running TFs on weekends, I can try to grab new comers and run Aftershock or Whiteout with them. Thanks for the lovely idea Thetruthurts. Knightly reporting for duty! */e militarysalute* Question: Can we trade Anniversary Gifts? If we can I'd like to save some for…
  • Welcome to the Millenium City and Champions Online forums, Masked Shrike. I hope you enjoy your stay. If you will need a hand you can always ask me, I would be happy to help two fellow CoH players. My global is @Knightly Have fun. :smile:
  • Since I've created my new toon's Nemesis at level 30 (when the endless HP bug solved), I didn't get any Nemesis minion ambush so far. Neither in Monster Island nor in Lemuria. I remember minion ambushes were more frequent in old days. Maybe just my luck. He wasn't the Nemesis I wanted to create anyway. When every bug about…
  • Wow! Just... Wow! Your CO Werewolf form is awesome. It almost scared me, surely don't wanna met her in a dark alley. CoH one looks funny in kindest word. Edit: Forgot to talk about my CoH/CO characters. I made some of my CoH characters when I started Champions. After my comeback I've deleted them all and decided to make CO…
  • Okay now let's compare it to the Champions Online, DDO and DCUO online VIP players? They had everything during F2P for free. They have every new addition to their games after F2P launch for free and they are still recieving them free. Do they have monthly stipend? Yes. It is a bonus thanks to those VIP players for still…
  • Already signed petition and will think about mailing NCSoft. Not because I have to think about to do something involved saving the game. I am still joining my friends in CoH from time to time. Even my current MMO base is Champions, as I started playing MMOs with City of Heroes, I am still seeing myself as a part of CoH…
  • To OP: You did an awesome job guys. Maybe some can think it is about your investment in a game, a fictional thing which bears little meaning on real life, against real life problems. However City of Heroes is about friends and friendship more than anything, at least for me. I, for one, couldn't be there even I was in game.…
  • While I am really happy with offensive passive in Telepathy set, I'd like to see a support one added soon. As gamehobo gave very good analyze on new powers and I noticed similar things I won't add anything to it. However following bug(s) still exist in PTS so I am adding them as a reminder. - Nemesis creation screen…
  • I am eager to test those new powers. However don't have much interest in Vehicles so I am leaving that one out. I hope we can get Nemesis system fix sometime soon. By system I mean big ones like broken nemesis powers and little ones like not being able to load previously saved costumes or not being able to see nemesis…
  • Thanks. That is very helpfull theard for saving lives of my heroes. :smile:
  • CoH global: @Knightly CoH forums handle: Knightly on both old EU and new international one. Started at Union server than moved to Defiant. CO global: @Knightly Old CO forums handle: Knightly New PWE forums handle: Sidreus
  • Well major difference between CO and CoH for me: CoH has Trials and Task Force which are strictly team events. So if you are not leading a team you can't read the story. Well even if you want to read that story you never have time to sit and read when 7 more people waiting for you. In CO we have Comic Series/Adventure…
  • Ain't superhero games on their basics rip off from comics? You probably saw many "clones" during your time on various Superhero MMOs. Why they are there? Because powers comes from comics we all read and know. It is same as most fantasy games being WoW or D&D clones depending on whichever you introduced first.…
  • I still don't reach level 25 to create a new nemesis with my new line of heroes. However depending on my PST experience: - You can't see avatars for Nemesis minions on creation process - You can't upload previously saved costumes for your nemesis... even the ones saved from Nemesis screen - On some occasion, even if you…
  • I am not a numbers guy but I can speak about Richochet Throw a bit from my own experience with the power. I am leveling several heroes and they are both in closer level range (17-18). My ranged damage character is a ranged earth build runs in Ranged Damage mode with Kinetic Manipulation. My boomerang thrower runs in hybrid…
  • A slightly off topic but as he was mentioned here I have one question about Baron Cemietre or however his name spelled. Does his block also reflects ranged damage or only melee ones? I died on his alert with one hit yesterday so I assume it reflects ranged damage as well. Just trying to be sure. Unluckily with all that…
  • Well, as an on and off P2P costumer I can say, Champions Online is the only game I can't stand playing free. If I ever come back CO I know time for renewing my sub ain't a day or two away. ATs are cool still not my own characters, at least they feel that way. Also CO is one of the games progressing and going better on my…
