The more you are able to contribute to the bigger picture, the faster the gear will come. Even Tanks/Healers/CCers could benefit from versatility, because not every encounter is going to need a CC, extra Tank, or extra Healer. With Dino and Eido, for example, an excess of these roles can actually hinder the group. I and…

@jaazaniah1 Ha! I'm actually trying to think of a theme right now with only a TW as a defensive power, I'll let you know lol
-
What's up with the personal assumptions? You know all my toons are dual passive, right? One of my tank/DPS has an interrupt for Tank form AND a threat wipe for DPS form. One of my tanks doesn't even have Resurgence. If a dual role setup can manage to fit in a threat wipe why can't a single role DPS? I'm actually tempted to…
-
Jokes aside, I think tanks and their investment in threat mods have spoiled DPS to the point where they think they can build for endgame content without certain "must have" powers. For example, Active Defense, threat mods/gear, and an interrupt for Kiga's dogs are considered "must haves" for serious Cosmic tanking. Just…

A threat wipe device in the hands of a tank is just too tempting, lol

> @jaazaniah1 said: > It's really very simple. PWE/CO is a business, not a chairty. They run this game to make money for thier investors/owners. They think they make more money by not having a montly subscription any longer. Since they haven't brought back subscription by now, presumably their new business model is working…

Just addressing gameplay and build related bugs, damage floater sync issues, and fixing/improving input response would breath new life into this game. A good old-fashioned polish will work wonders.
-
I think this is a fun idea. It would make for some interesting, unorthodox power combinations, for sure.

> @stairs0 said: > Hilarious as that might be, I think Kigatilik is a more suited opponent, PvP got enough drama as is lmao What's funny about it? Explain.

IMO, I think the bonuses on the Veteran's Core of Might (+13 to Secondary Stats in utility slot) are more of a nice alternative than they are an actual upgrade over the other utility mod options. I wouldn't say it's worth re-rolling a toon over, but I'd definitely be more careful about it next time.

TBH Cosmics are the fastest way to earn GCR. With a properly equipped and experienced group, you can knock all 3, sometimes 6 on populated days, out in 20-30 min. I've been in cosmic rotations that took even less than that. Right now, a lot of the more experienced tanks, CCer's, etc. are stepping back a bit and mentoring…

I am a fan of GW2's PvP gear system. You can literally go head-to-head with the best of them in less than 10 mins of making your character. Just set up your points, pick your gear, and jump in. However, I feel WoW's system of having separate point allocations for each of the 6 build options may work out better for this…

> @ansemthedark said: > Since this thread is open, a question on my side, can you regain it if you accidentally sell it inside a gear or discard it? I use it in general for twinks on Blue level 40 Gear, Green in Primary Utility's case. But I have never seen it able to buy it again, or does it only show if you not have it…
-
Yes, you will get it as soon as you purchase a lifetime subscription. It's a really nice mod.

A couple of beach related emotes to go with the new bathing suits would be nice. One of you laying on a towel with your hands behind your head, and another sitting under a beach umbrella.

> @rygrad said: > So the only way to get Freeform is to pay $250? No you can get an individual Freeform or 3-pack(?) at the Z-Store. They just recently had a sale on them also.
-
CO is not going anywhere. The fact that we got all these cosmic, lair, and powerset revamps, in addition to serial missions and new rampages in the past two years means they plan on sticking around for a while. They wouldn't waste their time if they plan on shelving the game anytime soon. Not only that, even after a long…

As an Asian American, I raughed out roud at #2. Can we also get some sugar-free health refills, please? One of my tanks is diabetic, and I don't want his blood-sugar level to skyrocket in the middle of an Alert. Thank you.
-
> @ariesmajor said: > The game is a creative nerds paradise. Its the only super hero mmo worth its salt on the market now offering modern customization options to the degree that it does. To say that it was ahead of its time in that regard is a massive understatement. The gameplay is fun (after you reach 40 and have full…
-
For me, a big reason why I continue to play is the sense of accomplishment I get in a relatively short amount of time. In other MMO's I used to play, you had to put aside at least 1 or 2 hours a day just tackle endgame content that drops top tier currency. That's not including time recruiting for groups or raids, just to…
-
I also always dreamed of an Ape VS Dino fight in Millennium City. Two teams would need to separate them both and take them out Cosmic style.
-
Maybe an open world escort mission where we have to defend a parade headed to the center of Ren Cen to set off fireworks. A different open world boss would spawn at different points along the path. We would need to defeat the boss before the parade gets to that point. If the parade reaches Ren Cen, we get a fireworks show.…
-
The last Dino I tanked, I swear there was barely a second interval between 5 consecutive bites. I don't know how it's technically possible to hit/dodge buff/block through that, but I'm sure luck had a lot to do with it. I also have Kiga's animations/damage floaters out-of-sync recorded. Damage floater went up before Kiga…

Go to Missions>Perks Highlight 'All' and you should get a comprehensive list of the perks you have and don't have and the requirements to achieve them. IIRC, 'Clever' requires getting credit for completing the Dino cosmic a certain number of times. I recently got a raptor head 3 drop from Dino. Hit me up in-game…
-
It's been happening at cosmics as well. Seen two experienced and solid tanks I was soaking with lag and teleport across the field to die by lava at Ape. Dino's tempo is slower than usual in the beginning of the fight, akin to fighting in water. Then in the middle of the fight, Dino's animations would stop and she would…
-
Deleted for raising a dead thread.
-
There's Raptor Heads that drop from Dino. You may be able find them on the AH for a reasonable price.
-
Fistbump hell yeah!
-
I believe a lot of the previously craftable items and powers are available in the Q-Store now. But yeah, even some kind of exclusive costume like goggles or weapon skin would be a nice visual reward for maxing out crafting.
-
The TT alert event has a lot to do with it right now. Regardless, this is what I was trying to address in my post in the Suggestions section. Not a lot of people enjoy tanking, healing, etc. But for the ones that do, there really is no motivation for them to get into the Rampage drop grind other than to farm for alts. On…
-
I don't know, I wouldn't call hitting level 40 "full advancement." I've been at level 40 on my main for about 3 years now, and still finding ways to play him better. The game doesn't really begin until level 40 to be honest. That's where you really learn how to play your characters to their full potential. You should come…
-
How are endgame things boring and repetitive, and leveling to 10 over and over isn't? Even when you hit 40, you can still queue up and farm the same Alerts till your hearts content that you were doing at level 10, or even blast through Socrates missions if you want random instances. Not only that, you'll have your full…
-
I want to see an event where Ape and/or Dino escape from Monster Island and wreak havoc in Millennium City. I think that would be a fun change in Cosmic dailies.
-
Just read through the guide and looks like you covered the basics. Thank you for the nice write-up. Just wanted to share a little tip I learned from the veteran CC'ers: Whenever you attempt to sleep the dogs, press and HOLD Ego Sleep down until it goes off on its own. This is to ensure that the power covers the full…
-
Welcome to the club! Don't know if it's been mentioned yet, but with LTS you get a free OV token each day per toon, which means you don't have to spend precious questionite or farm guardian tokens to get what are arguably the best secondaries in the game (Onslaught gear, depending on role/build).

How to report trolling: Press ESC>Help>Request GM help>Behavior Just a quick ticket is enough. Video does speed up the process, but right now making CS aware how out of hand this is getting is more important. How To Record (Win10): Press Windows Button + G If you guys are serious about combating this, we all need to be…

To @thewinxfairy I remember when I first started going to cosmics it was at a Kiga fight. You were CC ing, Kode Prime@lmcnutri was MT, and Imperium Scion@rremont was pulling dogs. I recall watching how amazed I was how you three had everything under control and wondering if I could ever play like you guys. I remember after…

You know what the funny thing about the whole thing is? At the end of the day, the members of that troll channel are the ones trying hard to prove something to the rest of us. In all of the games I've played, I've never EVER, seen a circle of players try SOOOOOOO hard to get noticed, try SOOOOO hard to set themselves…
-
Not intimidated by their attempts one bit. I actually find it amusing how one person was able to panic their entire troll channel. Just reminds the rest of us how fragile their egos, psyches, and confidence is. EDIT: and they're scared too, because they just deleted their comment, lol
-
Notice how defensive people got? Actions speak for themselves.
-
It's been going on mostly in the early/mid afternoon. They coordinate via private channel and hop on alternate accounts to grieve specific players. Really pathetic. It's gotten real bad now that the channel and membership has been exposed. Like their little secret parade got rained on. It really is a shame because I had a…

Been playing this game off and on since release, but became my main MMO about 3 years ago. Before the whole COVID thing I was really busy with work and adulting, and only had about an hour or two each day to get my gaming "fix". My main draw is how you can get a sense of accomplishment in a short amount of time. On a good…

Can we also have VIP level hot dogs and Narcola please? (Not joking...I would so load up on hot dogs.)
-
> @pantagruel01 said: > It doesn't terribly matter. If you can't get the forces to unlock, you probably can't beat Eido either (the fail I mentioned was on last stage Eidolon, not on unlocking). It's not about beating the OM's. It's about the requirements needed to do them. You just said yourself a couple posts above about…
-
Not a fan of the OM requirement myself, but I understand its purpose as a gateway challenge. Maybe extending the time all 3 need to be finished would help? Instead of 2-3 groups needing to complete them at the same time, a group of one MT, one OT, DPS, and heals would be required to knock each OM out in quick succession.…

You wouldn't know...
-
I didn’t know 200 dollars was enough to pay a team to develop new content for us.
-
This SG sounds like fun. I just sent @hoosty an in-game email. I hope my female toon can join your ranks!
-
I use Sniper Rifle every chance I get on my Gunslinger AT. Very fun move to use for sure. The thing with Sniper Rifle is that you can’t use it if you are being attacked. You pretty much have to kill them in one shot, or else finish them off by other means while protecting yourself from the spike aggro you generated for…

Personally, as a melee tank, I find knock-backs used offensively annoying during grab alerts. Knocking and spreading them apart to the other side of the room when I’ve already gathered them to build energy/threat makes it that much more tedious to do my job. Knock-Back should be used defensively IMHO...
