Yes, I find WL hunting boring and the number of ppl doing it has me
parking my alts till it's all over. I'm glad you're enjoying it, but
I'll still be glad when it's done.

You can only hope?? The WL was great for getting my DDD from 14.5 to 19.5
(and coincidentally getting Sprint and Health). If it is still going on
tonight, my L9 scrapper is going to be working her way into some WL groups.
Although the insane lag when going from The Hollows to Skyway was painful.

You can only hope?? The WL was great for getting my DDD from 14.5 to 19.5
(and coincidentally getting Sprint and Health). If it is still going on
tonight, my L9 scrapper is going to be working her way into some WL groups.

I've enjoyed it. My Level 12 blaster went to 18 and I took two level 2
characters to Level 12 and 14 over this last weekend (with help from
higher-level friends) as well.
My big headache has been poaching super-high level characters who hog the
exp by quick-killing low-level WLs.
Well, that and the fact that WL Exp is based on damage done, which means the
support-classes need to team with damage-dealers to score worthwhile exp.

Ditto. I'd rather spend fifteen minutes digging a hole in Perez to find a
chest of buried XP. 😛

The problem is, that while the existing players found it a great way to
fast level an alt, new players are doing the same thing - and then
finding they've outleveled their contacts, badge missions, etc, and most
importantly, have damn all influence.
So they zoomed up to 22+ but can't even afford _1_ SO and start begging.
I'll admit, I did hunt WLs, but on the other hand, I generally "twink"
my alts with 1 million influence anyway. After all - i've done the
"starving hero" routine dozens of times already and it really doesn't
_increase_ my enjoyment.
In particular WLs were a decent way to level up the peacebringer, though
I think he's going to get parked at 25ish.
It's just not really fun.
[I copied to test to try out a human/dwarf build for respec, and it
would seem that human form ranged attacks are so weak as to be useless.
I shot an even con void seeker. I shot him 3x for approx 10% of his
hp, he shot me 3x and killed me. Glinting eye, Gleaming Blast, Luminous
Detonation.
Of course, in human form, you pretty much ALWAYS get stunned/knocked
down by Q-guns so you always lose toggles and time.
The melee attacks are pretty good, but the recharge even with hasten
means you spend a lot of time just standing there, since there's only 2
of them. You can sort of use them, then flip to dwarf for a bit, then
flip back to human when you think they've recharged. Assuming of
course that you're fighting a group of 1-3 that don't hit very hard.]
Maybe once they actually boost Kheldian damage to reasonable levels and
remove the resistance penalty, human form might actually be functional
outside a team.
How they ever managed to consider that the Kheldians as they are now
needed 3 to 1 shotting Q-guns to balance them I don't know.
The Cryptic team must all be wearing Escher glasses.
Anyway, last night I rolled up a stone/axe tanker, and have been merrily
chopping my way through things.
CoH is fun again, and I suddenly realize how much like banging my head
against a wall playing the Peacebringer was.

No matter how many times you save the world, it always manages to get back in jeopardy again.
Sometimes I just want it to stay saved! You know, for a little bit?
I feel like the maid; "I just cleaned up this mess! Can we keep it clean for... for ten minutes!"

Go to Brickstown and look through the underground carparks - there
always seems to be plenty of them in there... There's also a spot in the
Crey's Folly waterworks where I always seem to see 5 or 6 standing
around together.
