Mercury_Storm posted:Is it possible to make a human only form Peacebringer that's actually good now? I tried this years ago and it didn't seem bery good. Also seemed like you were overextending yourself to take/slot the human form powers cause the alien form powers were pretty much the same thing but better. They're not horrible, but not great. Brutes/scraps deal roughly the same damage and are sturdier. At 50, with a ton of global recharge, you can run perma Light Form, which puts you somewhere in the same ballpark as scraps for sturdyness... except that you lose 50% of your hitpoints every 90 seconds.

Eh, the HP loss is kind of irrelevant when you're at 85% resistance capped to everything and Reform Essence is on a short cooldown. The 50% endurance loss is the real issue. Cardiac is the solution though, as it so often is.

Sea Lily posted:Sometimes small isn't small enough. Did you know you can be more small? I also remember with Paragon Chat you could edit database stuff in a really fucky way to use most NPC costume pieces. I'm kinda wondering if that's still viable for a live game, but I don't wanna risk a ban to find out.

Does anyone have nice things to say about Grav control for a dominator? I have a character concept I really like that uses Grav/Dark, but I'm up to level 12ish and it just seems like it sucks. Lift and propel are cool, but as a dom I don't need damage in my primary and everything about the set seems so slow. Worse, half the powers seem useless or actively detrimental. Wormhole sounds rad, but is it actually any good? And is that enough to make a set? I rerolled as Mind/Dark and it's a lot more fun, but it kinda borked the concept. While I'm here, curious if anyone has much to say about Martial Arts/Ice vs. Martial Arts/Dark on a scrapper. I really dig the ice armor look, but it seems like dark armor has more synergy with MA's stuns. Basically, playing this game is a constant struggle for me of fashion vs. utility, worse even than Dark Souls, to the level where I honestly think it's making me develop both autism and OCD and then pitting them against each other. Help. Also, how do I get into the goon chat channel? Any way we can get that into the OP? Machinegun Arm! fucked around with this message at 21:58 on May 18, 2019 |

I just had to redirect it and it worked, though I have to be careful about not activating the binds for the minions I don't have yet.

usenet celeb 1992 posted:I will probably never, ever let this go, but if they'd taken the storyline in a cosmic direction right off the bat, so many of those issues could have been sidestepped. The incarnate system wasn't necessarily bad for storytelling per se, it just didn't work with the sort of stories they clearly wanted to tell, regardless of how well it worked or how sick people were of the (by that point) mundane setting. Oh, sure, that was also part of the problem. The whole deal with Rularuu and the Shadow Shard is 8000% more interesting than the Battalion. But ultimately the Incarnate system was an endgame loot treadmill where player power would just keep increasing, so they needed to keep throwing more and more big cosmic threats on top of the pile to keep up with those power gains. And since the Incarnate system only ever offered raw mechanical power, those threats needed to be stuff you could punch, most likely in a raid setting where you had to avoid standing in fire at the same time. No big surprise that the system was designed by a power gamer who gave almost zero shits about storytelling. Peachy Poo posted:Is there a way to get the save/load options from file in the options menu work? It's getting real old having to set up and change all my keybindings and settings on every new character i make. I remember it working on live, but here it says it successfully saves or loads, but... it doesn't actually do anything. They've been working fine for me, though I don't have any custom binds or anything, just basic stuff that's generally automatically saved. Make sure you're hitting "apply changes" or whatever it is before exiting the options menu. Variable Haircut posted:On a different note: there was a new command added that works wonders with MM binds/macros/popmenus, powexec_location. This removes the 'click' portion of powers that need to be manually placed, like summoning pets and dropping AoE's. I don't remotely remember how it all works, but I25 also adds the ability to customize macro buttons to look like whatever you want. So you could turn Tar Patch into a targeted AoE and even have the icon on your power tray still look like Tar Patch. Platonicsolid posted:Actually finding costume parts could be frustrating, and didn't really scale well. I assume there was some kind of backwards compatibility issue that prevented a reorg? Indeed. The main thing is that costume files point to specific parts in specific categories so shifting stuff around too much causes anyone going to the tailor to have their costume defaulted to the game's best guess of what should be what. In theory they still should have been able to alphabetize everything at least. Machinegun Arm! posted:Does anyone have nice things to say about Grav control for a dominator?

Sea Lily posted:Sometimes small isn't small enough. Did you know you can be more small? I experimented with sliders once I got off work, and found that there is ONE other place this works, and it's more specific than this one. Minimum height can be smaller on everyone. But maximum height can only be taller on HUGE characters. Max height slider for Male and Female is 36, but on Huge it's cut down to 25. Why? Because at 36 they visibly do not fit through doorways. They're too tall, too wide, they're HUGE. It's really good Works the same way, edit the costume file, change the Scale value to 36. Don't look at the height slider ingame or it will reset to the slider max instead of the numerical max. Enjoy being large
