Yep, shes 41 today...... SMILEY

I wonder what the merv will be doing today SMILEY

Well... the buffs are certainly questionnable based on the work required for the item, however I was prepared to work it and hopefully it would be really useful.

Now there is a serious issue here.

White = Healing without headgear, Red= Healing with.
Now you might look at that and say... that's no 40% increase, you are right.

Now as a Trauma Surgeon I have 38% area healing bonus. We never knew the cap, because we simply never hit it, until now.
As you can see below, the area heal radius caps at 50%, the patchers headgear gives 40% bonus. Now let me point out "Resist Damage" is a lvl 6 ability and is needed for ANY Area heal or buff loadout, so you already have the 23%.

So.... basically, the bonus is useless as long as the 50% bonus cap exists. This is a hard item to get and takes a lot of time, at least make sure the buffs it gives are actually worthwhile.

So what needs doing? Lift the Area and heal radius cap, or say cap it too 80%.

I was thinking, we hvae so many different mission types and once you have done them, you will stick to the ones that are best for xp/time etc, which for most is either inflitraton or assasination, plus those are less likely to be bugged. Now my suggestion is instead of having them just for xp alone, doing a mission of a certain type helps build stats along those lines too..

e.g

Mission Type: Infiltration

Upon completing the mission you get say .1 added to stealth etc, and it can help players choose missions to help buff that style of ability... it would give more meaning to the type of mission you choose.

With say assisnation you melee damage is increased each time , and so on....

other missions, like recruit, helps speed buffs or so on, but we can balance that out...

Ok this will be fun, post your first ever screen shots you have ... mine at level 6 SMILEY

- no alts, only your main please SMILEY

**just also add why you took it, this was taken because i was at debir court SMILEY

, ddint really start taking screenshots till after 50, only few others inbetween really...

Ok a game i have been looking forward too, its out in the UK tomorrow, at least thats the info i got, cause most the time games come out on friday, im debating on playing it, or hanging with mxo SMILEY

, most likely divided time....

Male Sakura Bandana's

If you have them to sell, whatever purity let me know.

Info or whatever needed let me know SMILEY

They now exist, are on the marketplace too, but some ppl have done really silly prices :/

However I spent the info to buy them, enjoy that 12 m to some merv.

Need them? contact me. I dont charge. But I may ask for a frag SMILEY

Im sure this has been said before, but I just want to point out how much SMILEY

A lot of coders have a vast collection of clothes in particular and if someone is looking for something, thats some search needed at times.

With some kind of search ability we can search by color or name in particular.

This is a must on the "to do" list SMILEY

Well someone not happy i got the Transcendent title, as it appears all most posts are apparently getting 1 stared right now SMILEY

, and im guessing for that title to drop .....

*If dates are to change it wil be notified.

As you can see from the picture above, deadly throw from the MKT tree has a special status to it, if your oponent is off-balanced then you will deal double the damage to them. However this brings up 2 issues.

1. As you can see from the shots above, the normal damage in the first place was 440. However in the 2nd capture when the oponent was off-balanced, the damage was not "double"

2. As you can see from the 2nd shot it lists the damage back to back , rather than as 1 hit. Now this leads some people who dont study the tree to think that it is a player exploiting.

So would be great if the damage can be listed as 1, also that its is double damage as stated.

Not sure if this has been posted/mentioned before, so I just did that.

"Redpills, I seek your help. Someone has stolen something of importance to me, what it is and what it means to me is irrelevant. All I ask is that you help me get it back.

My assistant Cas will help you, send her your interest to meet her via Email and she will tell you when and where to meet

Should you get what was stolen back for me, then you will be rewarded"

- Dame White

Hint
You need to work out who to email in game, there is a clue.
Stage 1 of event is 19/05/06 starting around 6pm EST, you must email before then to know where to go.

Ok Ive made this post just to highlight so people know today is the last day for submitting entries into the mod signature comps, so get on it!! SMILEY

, remember there is votes next week, get your entires in SMILEY

just wanted to also see these 3 together SMILEY

Zion has a new Ship..

There is a certain bias in the defense buffs from awakened tree. You can loadout hyper deflect along with any other defense. Now this probally was done on how hackers were over powered in the old system, however after many changes the system is fair enough and infact hackers are at a dis-advantage now, people can loadout to defend against them and any other tree.

Its about time you sort this out, and frankly there are only 2 fair options.

1. Allow the loading of ANY 2 defense.
2. Only allow a SINGLE defense at any time.

Im sure most ppl prefer any 2, but then a lot wouldnt like that either, I think 1 defense makes pvp interesting.

this is making my current desktop rock SMILEY

Aquatium
I was at Tabor North when Tyndall sent me an urgent broadcast, I was to go and meet Pasadena, she would have urgent intel about Niobes situation and they mysetery surronding it.

She was local, I didn't have to travel far, but before I could get to ger I was attacked by "Niobe Attacker", these are operatives following that son of a... Anome. I quickly took care of this operative, needs must and all.

I got to Pasadena and she relayed this to me..

Pasadena

Tyndall sent you? Okay... Well, we've found that the guards who were in the meeting room with Niobe--Camas, Gulf, Banquo, and Tslal--have not jacked out since Anome's ambush. If they were shot down at the meeting, their emergency jackout systems should have kicked in and pulled them out. But that hasn't happened, they haven't reported in inside the Matrix, and there's no activity on their carrier signals. I'm not sure what could have happened to them, or to Niobe, but it isn't looking good.

Aquatium
Tyndall then relayed this to me..

Aquatium
As requested I went to read the report and see what analysis can be made from it.

The lab was a short distance away, I made hast, but again on my route I was attacked by another Anome follower, again I had to deal with this little problem, effectively.

I reached the lab, it seemed very quite as I searched around. My Operator told me he picked up some activity, this was expected, however once I got in, not quite as I thought.

Niobe Aikido Grandmaster

Hah! Zion is done!

Aquatium
Zion is Done? I showed him who was done. However seeing them in the lab could mean only one thing, they were there to destroy evidence. Then I started to find the bodies.

Aquatium
Another Anome follower was there, again I had to remove him from the equation, my Full Auto Redux was always good at maths.

Aquatium
The computer was still operational, the data could be saved, that was my main priority now.

Aquatium
I got the report, and its findings just added more cause for concern.

Aquatium
I left the labs, cleaning up the mess I just made, no one was to know I had been there. I reported this to Tyndall and then she asked me to do something I wish I didn't have too, but again, needs must.

Aquatium

So The Effectuator's help was needed, which means the Merovingians help is needed. Go visit some Merovigians, My Full Auto Redux was tempted to break out and make another apperance, however I can stay vigilant on the task at hand.

The Exlies, Lupines, were in a clean office block, how they managed to keep it clean is beyond me, but they were willing to help arrange this meeting, good thing too, I was ready to use other means to get them to help.

Lupine Scrapper
Why should we trust you, meatbag? What's in it for us?

Aquatium
I know how I wanted to respond but then they decided to help.

Lupine Scrapper

Now, now... Why don't we humor the human? No skin off our back. After all, maybe they'll be able to make it worth our while, eh? Very well, operative. We'll notify the appropriate people. They'll be in touch. I just hope for your sake that you've got something tasty to exchange for the Merovingian's good graces.

Aquatium

Not long after I got the call

Aquatium

Negotiating with the Merv, not something I think any Zion wanted to do, but Niobe must be helped.

I went to the meet point, and it was none other than the Frenchmans poodle Flood to listen to our request.

Flood

Oh dear, look what the code dragged in. Tyndall sent you, I suppose? Mm, yes. Perhaps you'd like to tell me what this is about, then.
Niobe? Ah, of course--dear Niobe. She's one of our very favorite Zionites, you know. Terrible if anything happened to her, just terrible. My, my...
I tell you what, human. We'll look into your little problem, and see if we fancy it. We may require some data from you--but you'll be ever so happy to cooperate, won't you? Of course you will. Wonderful.

Aquatium

My Bedlams would certainly have given him a suprise of what the code really dragged in. Well at least they are willing to help , I've told Tyndall what they may ask for, lets see where this goes.

Aquatium

So do I Tyndall, so do I.

Master Shadow Ability
Immunity from being attacked or attacking while its active.

Cast Timer: 1 Second
Duration Timer: 180 Seconds
Re-Use Timer: 30 Seconds

What needs to be done...

Option 1
Cast Timer: 5 Seconds (because rollout=4 sec immunity)
Duration Timer: 180 Seconds
Re-Use Timer: 30 Seconds

Option 2
Cast Timer: 1 Second
Duration Timer: 30 Seconds
Re-Use Timer: 180 Seconds

Option 3
I read this suggestion by TheSorrows

Delete Upgrades ability has a 5% - 10% chance of removing the Master Shadow ability.

Lots of talking about timers and re-use timers, tihs ability itself is the biggest offender of it. This needs a fix for the current combat system. The fact you can loadout many high damage moves with this tree means you cant simply have it as the "get out of jail free card". Im sure people who use this tree wont want changes, that includes Zion operatives Ive seen using it, however it does need consideration on the 3 options suggested.

Aquatium
Back again, my usual spot, Tabor North. It's always quiet and peaceful, i like it. However memories of most days begin from here. Tyndall messaged me. After the last meeting with Flood, they Merovingians wanted to start the work on locating Niobe. We were going to be working with them, something I didn't think I'd be saying in my lifetime.

Here communication as always straight to the point, and told me what she wanted done. I was to go meet them again.

Aquatium
We know his interest in Niobe in the past was to kill her, I doubt thats changed, but lets see where this takes us.

I got to the gruby little flat, well suited for Flood, infact you'd think a flood had hit it, hmm thats true in so many ways. He was there to give me his usual banter where he thinks he is all clever, he wasn't clever just lucky we needed the Merovingians help.

Aquatium
He has his usual group of misfits, Blood Nobles, oh how entertaining they are.

Blood Noble

Don't be frightened, human; we won't bite. Besides, you could use a bath.

Blood Noble

Ugh. A Zionite.

Flood
We might be willing to work with you on this little Niobe problem after all, operative. Oh, payment... I really can't say as yet. We don't know the extent of the problem. That's what you're here for, eh? Now, stop blabbering and listen.
We will require scans of certain data clusters in the city. These clusters have node links to the area that disappeared with Niobe in it in Ueno. Don't ask me how I know this; I know because it is my business to know. You will go to certain locations and collect the data using this device.

Aquatium

Ok Flood, I'll get this done, and please enough blabbering from yourself too.

Flood
It's nice to see that you can follow simple commands. Congratulations. Now run along; we'll send the scanning coordinates to your operator.

Aquatium

Someday he will be running along... away from the deletion. However after our pleasent exchange he handed me the device needed to do the scans.

I left the area, and reported back to Tyndall on the task given.

Aquatium

Galling isn't the choice of words I'd use, but ok.
The first location I had to goto was given, no suprises en-route I was attacked by "Niobes Group" followers, dispatched them faster than UPS ever could.

Destination was reached. My Operator updated me.

Aquatium

He knows we all to well, getting rid of hostiles, well thats a speciality.

There seemed to be a few of them, however they all feel and the scan was done. even my Operator noticed there determination.

Niobe Vector
Sheer, unlimited power! You're doomed, sucker!

Niobe Physician
This'll be nice and quick.

Aquatium

I must hand it to them, they were right, I did make it quick for them... their death that is.

Aquatium

I informed Tyndall of the outcome on the scans and hostalities in that place. She updated me on the next task. Im on it Tyndall.

Aquatium

I made my way to the final location and just as I suspected had more attacks on the streets from these Anome followers. They really should learn what the outcome is of such attacks.

As I got inside the building more hostiles were in the area, they had to be erased, and that they were.

There was one door I couldn't seem to get through, but just as I was about to try good old fashioned methods The Effectuator turns up out of nowhere. Now he does give me the creeps when he does that.

The Effectuator
Hey! Whoa! Hold up!
Careful with that device of mine, buster. Those things don't come cheap.
You obviously need some help, so I've taken the liberty of cracking the seal on the door over there.

Aquatium

Thanks... just dont get so close.

I went in and performed the final scans. The task was done, even The Effectuator seemed to like it.

The Effectuator

If you weren't so ugly, I could just kiss you! That was the data we needed, good work!

I've got to hand it to you, chum; you ain't bad with a node trace scanner. You should think about hooking up with the Merovingian. He knows how to pay for skills like yours.

Aquatium

Ugly? have you looked at yourself lately? I recommend it then you will know true Ugly! However yes job done, as for a job with the Merovingian, well lets just say Ill turn assassin and he will be the job.

I made my exist, each minute of him trying to make conversation was a minute too long. As always Tyndall was first on my contact list.

Aquatium

Meet Flood again, looking forward to it... really!

I went to the meet point, he was there, and what he had to say didn't entertain me.

Flood
Hm, yes. Good work. I didn't think you had it in you.
The data you collected shows conclusively that your dear Niobe has indeed been partitioned off into a separate construct simulation. Quite remarkable, actually. We believe our man, the Effectuator--oh, you've met?--will be able to locate and take control of this construct...for the right price.
Haha! Oh, dear, no; I'm not going to waste time haggling with the likes of you. Zion will need to put up a better showing than that. We'll get back to you.

Aquatium

Flood, just say one more thing to annoy me... Tyndall should let me beat the information out of him.

Flood

Bye-bye now.

Aquatium
I left...peacefully, in order to relay this back to Tyndall, we have to play the waiting game now.

Aquatium

Not too long I hope, we must get to Niobe... and soon.

Aquatium
Jacking in through a HL, always a experience, more so when you hope a blue pill isnt on their way just at that moment to use the phone. Though my oeprator scans to make sure its clear before hand.

Always an urgency when I jack in though, and today was another step forward, I'd like to say in the right direction, but when was working with the Merovingian ever that. Tyndall contacted me, I was needed.

Aquatium
A meeting to assist Ghost, this was an honour, I'd helped him not too long ago when he tried to get Anome to show his face in Ueno, instead we ended up just handling his followers, Anome that coward hiding behind others as always.

I made my way to his location and almost like they were waiting for me by the HL, those stupid followers were on my case again, lets just say he didnt quiet get the information he wanted.

Ghost was there waiting for me as mentioned.

Ghost

This is going to be a very small meeting, Aquatium; just us, the Merovingian, and his second. Nobody else is allowed inside the building. Both sides will have code tracers and jammers running all over the sector, of course. We just have to count on ours being up to matching theirs.

But all the two of us need to worry about are the Merovingian, and whoever the other person is that he's bringing. I'll be doing the talking, so I need you to keep a close eye on them. I know I can count on you to do that.

Aquatium

I appriciate you asking me to assist you with this, and you can count on me, rest assured of that.

Just then I left Ghost to get ready for the meeting, Tyndall however was back in touch, the poddle wanted a meeting.

Aquatium

In demand from Flood? cant say I think thats a good thing. Just as I was making my way to this small meeting, attacked again from those followers, they really are starting to annoy me now. You'd think they were the energizer bunny, well I certrainly was going to make sure they wont go on and on and on...

Yep not long at all.. I made my way into the room and Flood was there with his regular bodyguards.

Blood Noble
We haven't forgotten how you snatched the case from us. Interesting how the situation has changed, eh? Aren't you glad you got that case?

Aquatium
Taking the case was like taking candy from a baby, now move out my way.

Blood Noble
All this trouble for Niobe; and you meatbags call us crazy.

Aquatium
I dont expect you to understand loyalty and respect, words associated with you are not mentioned in open. Anyway Flood you wanted a word.. make it quick.

Flood
And so our prodigal child returns. Due to our longstanding friendship, I felt I should warn you not to attempt any sleight of hand or violence against the Merovingian. Should anything happen to him in the meeting, not only will you be incinerated in a sincerely painful fashion, but you will lose all hope of rescuing your precious leader.

I do hope we're clear on that? Marvelous.

Aquatium
Make sure he keeps himself in check too, no tricks, you clear on that? Marvelous.

Flood
Have a lovely day, operative. Try to soak up as much of the Merovingian's wisdom as you can; it would do you some good.

Aquatium
Wisdom? it could do you some good too.

I took my leave, and informed Tyndall of what happened. She then informed me it was time.

Aquatium
Im locked and loaded just in case too, helping Ghost will be a pleasure.

Me and Ghost were to meet at the location, en-route I had more target practice turn up.

Aquatium
I got the the meeting place, Ghost was in and my operator told me he was reading 2 high lvl exiles, I know the Merovingian was one of them, I was to learn Malphas was the other.

The Merovingian
Mon cher Ghost, of course I will help poor Niobe. Why, I have known her so well, she is almost like family to me! Could I stand by while she dies a slow, lingering death, cut off from her friends and loved ones? Could there be anything more horrible? Just think of it!
No, mon ami, I will not let this happen. I will succor la belle. And as for my fee? Don't think of it! I do this for you pro bono. Do friends charge each other for favors? Of course not. It may take some time, but do not worry, we will save her and return her safely to you.

Aquatium
I could see Ghost was biting his teeth while listening to the Merovingian talk. As alway he just comes across as a bit of a smug individual, I almost wish theres trouble so I get a chance to wipe that smirk from his face.

I went upto Malphas he looked like he needed a vacation

Malphas

Be calm, human; be quiet. You are in the presence of greatness.

Aquatium
Yes Ghost is a great operative for Zion, thanks for agreeing. The Merovingian as always had to get the last line in.

The Merovingian
I see no reason why I should put up with you. Our agreement is made, n'est-ce pas? We will do what you could not, and save your intemperate leader.

Aquatium
He maybe a powerful exile, and be able to help us, so I kept my mouth shut as I was just there to assit, but I sure wanted to give him a peice of my mind. I spoke with Ghost and he gave me his thoughts on the matter.

Ghost
That was easy...but we can be sure that the Frenchman has something up his sleeve.
Report to Tyndall that the deal is complete. We'll talk again in a little while.

Aquatium
Yes, I don't trust him either, but we must work with him for Niobe's sake, speak soon. I informed Tyndall what went happened.

Aquatium
Yes I know, strange indeed. I'll meet up with Ghost right away.

I got to Ghosts location, you could tell he enjoys killing Sentinels...

I met up with him and he de-briefed me on the meeting.

Ghost

You handled yourself well at the meeting, Aquatium. I knew I could count on you.

The Merovingian's apparent philanthropy puts us in an awkward position, since we've been waging war on his organization ever since we discovered that he hired Morpheus' killer. But if he really can save Niobe, then we may have to reconsider our position.

I don't like this at all. But right now, we have no alternative.

Aquatium

Thank You and I understand, but I wont forget what he has done, and I dont think Niobe will either. However I can see this puts us in quite a situation.

Ghost
We'll have to keep a close eye on the Merovingian. It isn't in his programming to do something for nothing.

Aquatium

We need to be vigilant indeed.

I left, things were on my mind about what Ghost said, and how things were progressing, could we forget the past if he helps rescue Niobe? somehow I just couldnt see that happening.

Not long after Tyndall let me know the lasted on the situation.

Aquatium

Lets hope its not just a trap of some sorts Tyndall. What will happen next will certainly show that.

Captain Niobe,

We have reached a critical point now. Questions need answering, certain events need explaining. At this moment you seem to have gone silent on the matter.

We are learning of more and more information about the General each day, and its causing many doubts within Zion.

We do what we must, we do what we can. However we dare not stand idle while all around is chaos and doubt about what actions are currently being take, with or without anyone's permission.

I know what I stand for, and what I want. I'll do whatever it takes to make sure Zion does not lose sight of what it has to do. However Fallen Horizon alone can't do this, we need to hear from you what is happening, where Zion stands on the matter.

It is times like this where Neo and Morphues would know what to do, I look to the Oracle, but alas she is un reachable at this time. The time has come to fight, to stand and take care of what needs to be done.

Hopefully you will receive this transmission, well I'm sure you will, I just hope its sooner rather than later.

Today seemed like another day of hope, hope on getting Niobe back, hope on finally getting hold of Anome and bringing justice for Niobe.

Since the attacks from followers of Anome grew we have been making sure no-one is alone, I was with a crew member, we were there to help protect each other. Orexis, always the elegant one from my crew.

Aquatium
Tyndall got in touch, apparently the Merovingian, or well one of his pets had new information to help us with Niobe.

Aquatium
Tyndall, you know that I have always been careful about trusting anything from the Merovingian, lets hope this leads somewhere positive. Me and Orexis made our way to the meet location.

I instructed Orexis to take the north route while I took the more hostile south route, I was right too also. Not long after a Anome follower attacked me, they certainly not following Anome anymore.

Aquatium
Once at the location, the Effectuator was there, waiting.

The Effectuator

We're working together now? Compadres? Cool.

Okay... I could use some more info for tracking down this construct Niobe's got herself caught in. In the Matrix, code references pop up in the darndest places. Thanks to the scan data Zion already sent me, I've found a link to another data cluster that should tell me more about the address of Niobe's construct.

Uh, yeah, don't worry if that all went straight over your head. I'm the brains, and you're the muscle, right, partner? All I need is for you to swipe some data for me. Ooh! But you could probably use some backup. No problemo! Boys?

Gnat
Rrr. This stinks.

Amalasunth
If I must...

Orexis
Lupines....

Aquatium
So he needs us to get some data, easy enough task, we really didn't need this help he was offering, but hey I don't mind ordering them about.

Well these dogs better do as they are told, or the only thing they will find on this mission is us sending them to the dogs , so to speak.

The Effectuator
There you go, buddy: your own private wolf pack! Now get on out there and get me that construct data! Your controller will have the coordinates for you.

**bleep** they smell..... cant he code us some air fresher too...

I told Niobe the situation. We were now to proceed and recover the data.

Aquatium
We got to the location, a little longer than I would have liked, but these lupines were slower than the traffic.

However they proved to be useful, there was a lot of security, send them in first, perfect.

Corporate Security Sentinel
Where's your authorization?

Corporate Security Sentinel
How'd you get in here?

Aquatium
It's loaded in my gun, and we used the door!

Aquatium
While the secuirty were both distracted and appauled by these creatures attacking them, me and Orexis began work on taking the data, I kept guard while she recovered the data.

Orexis

It wont take long sir

Aquatium

She managed to recover the data in good time, and then we helped the lupines eliminate the remaining guards.

Job was done, we were out of there before more backup was alerted.

Aquatium

We could just get Orexis to hack into their terminals, but I suppose in the fairness of co-operation we can goto the location. It wasn't too far.

Aquatium

The data was entered into the computer

Orexis

Transfer complete

Aquatium

Tyndall was debriefed, I just had to get out of there, I still had those dogs the Effectuator provided, I guess we could remove them from the Matrix, alas we needed to meet the Effectuator again. Ill return these things to him.

Aquatium
En-route, attacked again by these Anome followers,again the lupines were useful to keep around.

Aquatium
We got to the Effectuator, and that lively guy reported back to us on how far he got... stall tactics anyone?

The Effectuator

Hey, amigo! I got that data you liberated; way to go!

So here's the scoop. The construct Niobe's in has some totally weird firewall. Know what I think? I think Anome must have dropped one of those cheat codes as he was hustling out of the meeting place after plugging Niobe. I can't think of anything other than a Machine code that could have partitioned off a construct and put up a firewall like this.

Anyway, I haven't been able to open a door to the construct itself, but I managed to slow down its runtime. That means that inside the construct, time is passing way slower than it is outside--should help keep Niobe alive longer. We'll have that construct cracked soon, you'll see!

Aquatium
I certainly hope you are capabale of doing this Job, if not lets find someone who is.

The Effectuator
No worries, mate! I'm a pro!

Aquatium
Oh here are you dogs back, I was glad to get rid of them.

Orexis
We both could use a shower though after having them around us.

Aquatium

Indeed.

I updated Tyndall, she believes in them to easily, however we will proceed to orders.

Aquatium
Its now another waiting game, how I hate these, Niobe were coming, you hang in there.

Orexis

We will get to her soon Sir.

A new idea I had was to bring a bit more of a puzzle solving nature of events, and whats better than combining both ingame and outgame. This thread I will post a puzzle/riddle and those who solve it win a prize. Each time I will try to make them different , interesting and challanging. So it begins, the first riddle/puzzle, lets see who gets this first. Once each is sovled, the next one will be posted.

Good luck.

hehe, insprised by Coolice, heres a Star Wars themed Walrus sig, and thanks to coolice for the "May the Force Multiplier Be With You" line SMILEY

enjoy, cause i rush these things, and i dont like making them for fun or the community.... SMILEY
