Registered 18 years agonah, the concensus is that there were only a few of us egers playing regularly and we got burnt out and kinda trailed off.

So, after a fun little blast with Speed playing with my dark/dark the other day, on Sunday morning I started playing again with Phat, and didn”¦t stop until the small hours, I was just having so much fun.
First of all, my faith in the devs has been restored. I5 ”§nerfs”Ø were all actually very sound as far as I can see. The whole double damage when held thing is great. ”„Propel”¦ does over 300 HP damage now, which is seriously impressive, and when I get my Epic blasts I will be well hard. As for the pet nerfs, I have to say my Sing is actually much more usable. It doesn”¦t expire, so unless it gets killed I don”¦t have to worry about it, and it can go up in lifts and stuff. Because I only have one I don”¦t need to slot it with recharges, so instead it”¦s now 6 damage slotted, rah! Plus, because I only have one, I can now respawn it at my leisure, so if its in the wrong place or I want to send it in ahead, I can.
My soloing doesn”¦t seem to have been harmed that much. I didn”¦t try any higher, but I was soloing on tenacious for a bit with no props. My invincible days are probably over, but they were a bit silly really.
So, I”¦m back, and having fun. I”¦d encourage others to do the same, but if not, I may quit the SG and join another, just to try and get maximum levelling done before CoV. Oh, and I wouldn”¦t normally brag, but two separate groups last night agreed I was the best healer they”¦d seen. I rock! ŗ -

Registered 20 years agoThis thread has reached 323 pages in the space of 24 hours. Does that mean it's about a really good change to CoH or a really bad one?
Guess... -
Yay!!!! I finally hit 40 \o/\o/
Got some missions again, so with a bit of luck I won't have to wait so long to get my blast! -
Blimey they are moving quickly these days. I just logged off and I6 started pre-loading!
Have to say, you definately rack up the xp much faster these days. I made a million xp today in about 3 hours, although admittedly I was fighting at high lvls, but still, even when I was soaring along before it wasn't that quick. Nearly hit 41 today, I'll be 50 in no time at this rate, although I can't really solo anymore due to these AVs all the time. -

Registered 20 years agoBit of a bump for the compo winners.
What's left of the EG players play on Defiant, mentat has now joined us and I'm sure myself and others maybe about this evening.
That's if I can drag myself away from the Rogue Isles and the CoV beta..gif)
If you see Silver Toaster around, say hi or send a tell, I'll stay unhidden for a change... -

Registered 20 years agoI hope AA works for Ati cards on live, it was horrible not having it in CoV. -
Because of the effect that Enhancement Diversification has on the Stamina power, we are lowering the Endurance cost of every non-Auto power in the game by 13.33%.
That's not so bad as we thought then, although I'm gonna miss perma-hasten
On the subject of downloading the patch:
If you took part in the City of Villains European Beta, you can save yourself a significant amount of time by doing the following:
1. Quit out of the Updater.
2. Go to your City of Heroes folder (C:\Program Files\City of Heroes by default) and back it up by making a copy of it.
3. Go to the folder where you installed the Beta client (C:\Program Files\CoHTest by default) and copy the contents into your City of Heroes folder (C:\Program Files\City of Heroes by default).
4. Launch the game again.
This should save a lot of the downloading. If everything works, you can delete the copy of your City of Heroes folder you made in Step 2.

Actually, I'm not so smug after I read the comments here about how the pre-load doesn't work and you have to download it again anyway. That's also where I read that thing tobz. -

Registered 20 years agowell, the patch servers are still being t3h sucky, but i have found what may be a bit of a l33t h4xX0rish way of getting a head start on the download. the patcher for yer bog standard cohtest server seems to be operating at full capacity. i dunno if it's gonna be the exact same version as is on live, so there may be a little more patching to do to get it to play, but i'm hopeful that it'll become trivial. the sort of patch you can happily wait to be loaded and applied before you start playing rather than a leave your pc on and walk away type patch. -

Registered 18 years agowell, that seemed to work pretty well. apart from the fucking reboot arsing up my bios and booting off the wrong fucking hard drive AGAIN!
spent a few moments online this morning just to check it was working ok. it's been so long since i've played it i'd forgotten how to control pinky. -
I'm dreading my respec. Now that perma hasten is gone I may drop speed pool all together and bring back teleport friend, as it really was rather useful. Not sure what I@m going to do in general though, the slotting will have to change a lot. I may not bother slotting my sing at all! -

Registered 20 years agoI'll be keeping Hasten as I'll not give up SS so there's no point, I'll probably drop three slots though and just fire it up before fights. The permanent aura always got on my nerves anyway. 
I'm just not sure what to do with other powers I've got that only take one enhancement. Inferno seems pointless having anything but damages in but I suppose an accuracy wouldn't hurt as it's embarrasing when you miss but at least the endurance doesn't run down if you miss everyone, a slight bug that no blaster is going to report!
Reslotting things will allow me to upgrade the marvellous Hot Feet I suppose! :-D
I think I'll actually use my first respec on Live.
Edited by Whizzo at 11:17:44 28-10-2005 -
Might not hurt to have a couple of recharge reducs in inferno so you can do them more often. Might as well, sounds like we are all going to have slots to spare, which as a grav I had plenty of anyway.
I may as well take the opportunity to change my epic as well. I did so want to do a bit of fiery blasting, but the psionics pool blatantly made more sence, just not as fun, but I was secretly regretting it a bit, especially as those effing Malta keep sleeping me all the time. -

Registered 20 years agoActually what am I talking about it's recharge reds that are in Inferno!
I'm not a 5/1 slotter in my attacks so ED isn't going to have too much of an impact on most of my stuff apart from the loss of permahasten and stamina's reduction in recharge. -
i've actually not started to think about how i'm gonna respec pinky at all yet. i might have a bit of a play around and see how long hasten is down for and if i can live with that or not. if it aint up to snuff i may follow kal and ditch it from the build. that'd probably lead to 3 slotting hover for comabt use and 3 slotting fly for travel, then looking back at the power pools.
all those defense nerfs they were talking about a while back take the shine off the idea of stealth with it supressing when you attack. i'm confused about where to go with him. might have to fire up a hero planner
