    If you remove the combat tab from your chat window, it generally will increase your fps in scenarios and in RVR.

    BG is the opposite of the IB. Instead of building whatever whenever damage is taken, it was whenever damage was done.

    Give that a few seconds and you'll see why it was imba.

    It's something they could definitely work around. Hell, the Iron Breaker has a tactic that does just this: You generate five grudge whenever you hit someone. It's a tactic that comes early and I use in a great deal of builds, to give me more flexibility in how I can spend my grudge.

    If the hatred mechanic was the reason they scrapped the Black Guard, I imagine we'll see him again soon. That seems like a very viable mechanic to me.

    Apparently such formalities are unnecessary, if you just jump on the server and ask for an invite.

    My server just went down though so you might not have much luck right now.

    For healing classes, the game does target of target, so you can attack who your healing target is attacking. Is there a way to set it in reverse so you can quickly heal who your target is attacking?

    It's a long-term formality. Those without apps/forum accounts will be kicked from the in-game guild on October 3rd, and at intervals after that. It's more work for us, but it's an easier and more inclusive way of getting everyone together to play.

    When you say 'remove the combat tab', you mean delete it entirely, or seperate it from the chat tab?

    So I've tried a few class mechanics, all seem fun. As with other games I face the paralysis of choice.

    This goes back a few pages, but I went and picked up a Belkin Nostromo n52te...and I have to say I really like it. I didn't think I would, because I normally hate these kind of gimmicky controllers, but aside from needing to get used to the D-Pad movement, it's been great. I find I have a lot more keys right at my finger tips, and I find I am making use of more of my obscure abilities when they are just a finger tip away.

    I am still playing with my setup quite a bit, as far as the bindings are concerned, but so far, I really like it. Plus the ability to record G-15 style macros is great for someone like me, who refuses to get a G-15 because it's not ergo.

    Oh really? I've been considering this purchase for awhile.

    It seems that the main beef people has with it is its ability to slide around without your consent, hands slipping often. Whats your experience with that? I was just thinking of getting some of that sticky velcro to fix it, but was wondering if it is actually valid.

    Oh and woot. Amazon order came today.

    see I don't know about that. It would have to be really different then a Hammerer and a Hammerer already sounds a lot like a Slayer in armor.

    i have an n52 and the dpad on it is atrocious. i was relegated to using them as extra buttons and continuing to use a wasd setup (albeit on the n52).

    I sincerely hope this isn't re-hashing the same thing, but it's tough to sift through 90+ pages of posting.

    Anyways, here I go.

    I am having one helluva time leveling my guy. Example: I'm in Greenskin Chapter 11. I do all the quests, and most of the PQ. I proceed to the next zone, only to find that i'm way, way out of my league in relation to the level of the mobs around. Things that yes, I can solo, but just barely. The quests that take you to heavy mob zones are almost impossible. Your aggro radius makes life unbearable.

    So I painfully hoof it to another zone's chapter 11, finish it, and now i've gotten a level that's consumate with the next area. It just seems that i'm not getting enough xp to progress me through these chapters, and it's a real pain in the ass to constantly swap between zones. Yes, I'm always in a scenario que, but not many scenario's happen. I'm lucky to get 3 a play session. I do the PQ's, or most of them. Still doesn't seem enough, and sometimes I just don't feel like grinding mobs for the better part of an hour or two.

    Anyone else having this problem?

    Shift-z to remove the UI for screenshots. The super screenshot key takes uncompressed shots. Depending on resolution they are like 10mb each.

    I've always had the opposite problem. I just moved to Tier 2 after finishing *most* of the Tier 1 quests at Rank 13/11. Halfway through 13 and almost to RR 12.

    Are you queueing for multiple Scenarios (in a group) and trying to cap world objectives? Doing the RvR repeatable quests?

    I'm having the same problem. I got to 20 after finishing both Greenskin tier 2 and DE tier 2, but without RvR happening much, it's hard to get that extra oomph in leveling. I'm played a lot less this weekend to give my guildies a chance to catch up and in hopes that scenarios might pop a little more. But of course, when I get back from class, servers are down..
