Re: Killboard KDR should be removed!

There is an argument to be made that we need more stats, not to remove the ones we got i.e. people do respond to the visible statistics (see my post) therefore if you make more statistics visible then folks get recognition for other game aspects. For example, if you have a leaderboard for most heals...

Re: Killboard KDR should be removed!

Here is my anecdote. You can use this as an argument for and against it. A few months ago I looked at my lifetime KDR for my eponymously named SM and saw it was less than one and went about trying to figure out why. Didn't take long to figure out that joining a warband made it go down (regardless of...

Re: NCSoft grants license to CoH "rogue" server

Nope Games Workshop has no rights to the Age of Reckoning IP. They sold the rights to EA who then made the game. It's why the lore doesn't match up with any Warhammer fantasy and is considered it's own story. The original shutdown notice said the IP agreement came to an end, thus implying it revert...

NCSoft grants license to CoH "rogue" server

https://massivelyop.com/2024/01/04/ncsoft-has-officially-granted-a-city-of-heroes-server-license-to-the-homecoming-crew/ A belated Christmas miracle! :) I'm sure that Games Workshop would also have no issue with something like this since they are known to be a very reasonable and fan-friendly organi...

Re: Every Old Dwarf Road scenario in a nutshell...

1. Scenarios are (ostensibly) about winning i.e. reaching 500 points first. The devs have decided to make most of them kill box simulators but, in the end, the goal is still a race to that point total by whatever means except that ... 2. Most of Old Dwarf Road this weekend was ignoring the objective...

Re: Patch Notes 22/12/2023

I get the range nerf on Rift/Magnet, but the cast time was too much. It makes it almost impossible to use in an offensive way now so now it is simply a choke-point puller. Boring. Also, nobody counter-plays Rift/Magnet with interrupts/etc anyway because only time there is "counterplay" is ...

Warhammer End Times Documentary

"Warhammer End Times Explained in 4.5 Hours - FULL LORE DOCUMENTARY" Think the title says it all for the lore nerds. It is part of the fantasy channel for the same folks who do "Kings and Generals" documentaries on real historical battles. They also do stuff on LoTR and Warhammer...

Re: Best DPS Tank Poll and Thoughts

It's not. SM's damage is superior to BO's in every regard because SMs are hitting spiritual and Wrath of Hoeth + shatter enchantment on shaman res means you're hitting for near unmitigated damage. Once again, keep in mind that a ton of order dps hit for spirit, like SWs during VoN for example so it...

Re: Best DPS Tank Poll and Thoughts

Swordmaster/Chosen does better average damage vs. physical damage classes, but who needs to do a little better damage to tanks in group/scenario/RvR play? Your job is to put kill pressure on squishies and punt away tanks. SM damage is lower on squishy targets vs. physical damage tanks and can't pun...

Re: Xrealming has completely ruined this game

Someone is going to win the zone and someone is going to lose. That's fine. It is a PvP game after all. What is not fine is that once you reach a certain critical mass on the outnumbered side there is pretty much nothing to do except dodge zergs until the keep falls. And that requires significantly ...
