City of Villains: Team Evil

i11 stuff and junk

Hah, no one has posted anything since my i9 post and now i11 is due? NICE!

I've been back semi-casual-regular for the last week, and have finally managed to *drumroll* a) get my 1st villain to 50 and b) get a second alt to 50. Same char of course.

Anyway, I'll be around - most likely hero-side pinnacle, with some villain-side on champion.

Hellgate:London comes out this week though, so I'll be doing that for a while, hopefully i11 gives me at least a month of that before it drops.

Happy Halloween to whomever is still out there!

I9 stuff and junk

2007-05-30T15:05:00.000-04:00

I, for one, am really enjoying I9. I've wasted the time (it seems to take 1-2 hours per character) to fully deck out 5 or 6 chars in IOs now, and boy is it worth it efficiency wise. Quick advice: If you're not rich, screw the set bonuses, just got for combining the dual & triple aspect set IOs to maximize your powers - for most you can get 9 slots worth. I usually wind up with 95 dmg, 60% end, 60% acc, 60% recharge.

I've seen a few of you on recently, but haven't managed to connect much. I talked a little with Stagger, and we're going to shoot for trying an STF this weekend, Saturday night I think. Probably after 9pm PST. Nothing written in stone, because my schedule is dictated by the pregnant wife currently, but somewhere around there would be nice. I'll have my 47 fire/ff, recently respecced for vengeance & he's got Helper Monkey. So that's the support...we just need the rest :).

Inventions / Storage

2007-05-03T00:57:00.000-04:00

I just updated the base with the personal invention salvage storage access point (that's a mouthful) and a few inventing stations. Unfortunately, the inventing stations count as worktables and couldn't be placed in the main workshop by the cafe/lounge. I stuffed two stations into the first empty apartment next to the salvage storage room. The vault is in the storage area along with a third inventing station.

Issue 9

Dont know if anyone is interested in I9 but I think if the SG is going to get active again that we should try to distribute the recipe memorization so that diff people can make different IO's (ie: One person learns damage, one heal ... etc...)

Random invite

2006-12-17T18:22:00.000-05:00

I was talking with Trin about this the other day, so thought I'd extend the invite to others as well. I put up a little post on my Coh blog with the invite, if anyone ever feels like it, to making a theme build/char, to merge with two of my theme/bot teams.

Short version:
Infinity, hero side, science family heroes - all controller containment exploiting team. Would like a fire/ff and a fire/kin at least.
Protector, villain side: swarm of untouchable undead - all nec/ffs with assault.

Long version.

Holloween Event

2006-10-18T12:52:00.000-04:00

Hey everyone. They Holloween Event starts today. I'd like to ask a small favor. If anyone has any extra Event Salvage (Back Alley Brawler Gloves, Statesman Mask, Lord Recluce Helmet, or Hamidon Costume), I'm trying to collect some extra for my brothers who are not currently able to play because their accounts are down. If you could meet me in-game, or just drop it off in the base (Team Evil or Patrol for villains or heroes), I would really appreciate it!

Base Rent

2006-10-10T21:18:00.000-04:00

Well, the base power was shut off, so I went to pay it. We were short, so WX converted 5 million inf into enough prestige to JUST BARELY cover rent. In any case, we're back up and running.

Good vs. Evil

2006-10-09T12:03:00.000-04:00

So, who else out there, besides me and the Mrs., picked up the GvE upgrade?

Personally, I think the Justice shoulder pads ALONE were worth the $10, and the other items are just gravy on the cake, or something like that. =]

Where's Lobster?

2006-09-15T19:51:00.000-04:00

Oh, he's still here alright, just on another of his walkabouts.
Maybe he'll be back someday, at random. Probably relatively soon.
He did just get a modded xbox though and is having lots of fun FINALLY playing a hacked English translation of Langrisser 2 (Warsong 2) with the Genesis emulator. So maybe after he finishes with that. ;)

Oh, and he also blogs entirely too often about pointless things.

Viridian badge hunt

2006-09-08T19:51:00.000-04:00

Tomorrow (Saturday) at 3:30 pm eastern, Omicron Cypher and I will be going for the Infiltrator, Tank Buster, and Tracer badges, which are the three required to unlock Viridian. We'll get Infiltrator (Paragon Protectors) by farming one of Bray's Crey missions (~20 PPs per reset, assuming a full team), and the other two will probably be through street hunting in St. Martial.

Ice Mistral SF?

2006-09-04T21:18:00.000-04:00

Okay, I'm getting a bit tired of pick-up groups and soloing. Who's up for Ice Mistral? The SF is levels 35-40 (for experience, 41+ will be auto-malefactored), and the Crystal Keeper badge is required for the Megalomaniac accolade.

I nominate next Friday at 8pm eastern, but I'm flexible in that regard. The wife will be out of town next weekend, so I'll be available just about anytime.

Anybody interested?

Private apartments

2006-09-04T20:54:00.000-04:00

Since we have exactly 4 active Evil Geniuses (Omicron Cypher, Burning Bush, Voltaic Bot, and me) and 1 active Enforcer (Mie), it seems logical to give the 5 private apartments in the base to them. It also makes base editting permissions easy to assign. If/when we have enough prestige to upgrade the plot again, we'll have room for more personal space -- this will require approximately another 3 million prestige, though.

I've claimed the 2nd room, and OC claimed the last one. I put a big lateral file in the doorway to OC's room to mark it off, and mine is already decorated. Feel free to claim any of the empty rooms.

Here are four basic guidelines that will prevent a lot of headaches later: (In more blunt terms, how to not screw up other parts of the base.)

Please don't change the lighting or wall/ceiling/trim styles -- they apply to the entire room, not just your apartment. If you want more light in your room, add lights -- I recommend the Tech 2 lights, the torches, or the Shoji lamps. If you don't like the trim, you can put small items on the walls to force it to hide. Whoever gets the first room will almost definitely want to do this, as the ceiling trim was chosen for the storage area, not the apartment area.

Please don't use the SG banners. Each banner that has something other than the TE logo can only be used once, or else it will revert all other banners of that type back to the TE logo. Basically, it's very easy to screw up the main atrium or the oversight room by using banners, and they don't really fit anyway.

Please don't spend more than 30k prestige on your room -- I doubt that you'll use that much, since most decorative items only cost 100 prestige each, but we currently have about 120k in the bank, and it'd be good to split it evenly to start. For an idea on how much 30k will buy you, the furnishings in my room cost 5400 prestige (not including the pillars).

Please don't add any functional items. If you think that the base needs more of some particular functional item, tell me, and I'll stick it somewhere in the public areas. Basically, anything under the "arcane" tab or to the right of it is decorative, anything to the left of the "arcane" tab is functional. Ironically, anything you can craft and add via "Add personal item" is also a functional item, so you can just ignore the whole crafting thing.

If any of you have questions about how to use the editor, feel free to ask.
