Also anyone noticed that league chat doesn't seem to work? Joined a 3 man league last night for a laugh to do some testing and the league chat doesn't seem to work xD Well on the Reality Lost server anyway.

Yup league chat knackered today was on last night and it worked fine, today nada, even our MOTD is not showing when you log in.

Think one of the biggest problems with this game is the social aspect is very poor, its painful to talk in game, need to type /shout for everything unless you talking very local.

/l works for league as does /g for group, but there is no chance of a preselect, say set it to group chat or to shout ..with out having to have to type which one first, I see you can set new tabs, maybe they can be set to different chat groups.

If ya looking to join a UK based League ( well EU league) we looking for peeps
www.immortals-clan.co.uk, we on Bloodstrom, PvP server Hero affliction, was going to go villain but its so heavily stacked to villains already thought I would join the good side :)
 
Yeah league stuff is pretty broken for now but i'm confident that it will be in the next major patch as it will become a critical part of the games survivability.

With regards to the weapon stuff, its all about the end of tree passives. If youre focusing on dps you'll be wanting to aim for the ones with the +20 might options and other things similar. There are numerous trees that help with healing effects etc. Weapon dps is all pretty similar in the end.

Yeah the social side is a little lacking. The league last night just formed a group and we just did /g all night.

I am on the PvE server and immortals is a PvP league so I won't be able to join xD Thanks for the offer though :)
 
Quick side note where do the screen shots get saved, because if I try paste them into Paint, or Powerpoint all I get is a black background and nothing else?

anyone :D

Press F9 in game and then on windows 7 go to your documents folder (the original docs folder if you run your docs on another drive)

Look for My Games/DC Universe Online and you should see a screenshots folder in there. Will do a screen shot when I get home later on :)

Oh I like PvP and do the PvP alerts on the PvE server just at times its good to chill and fly about in the world to look around without being ganked at times :) I may roll a PvP character yet, just trying to focus on one character atm as I have so little time with the game as it is through the week.

I think I found out about the F9 for screenshot as I was reading a ten ton hammer review on the game and it was mentioned in there. Takes the screens in uncompressed bitmaps so file sizes are around 5mb each on my res.

Finally decided to swap to a staff as I won the loot roll for a nice one with higher DPS than the hammer. The speed of the staff out weighs the hammer by a long shot. Sure this will change when I get a decent hammer in the future but for now I can see why CK goes with the staff most the time :D

I find the staff is better for tanking and my bow is better for DPS. Staffs DPS just doesn't seem upto scratch, granted i haven't completed the tree as i just went straight for the dom and crit bonus as im building to be a tank.

Yeah cash is easy enough to come by in the game just find an area with mobs a level or two lower than you and just beat them for an hour. I just respecced and moved the hammer skills to the staff as the staff does 18.7 more dps than the hammer I had.

When I get to lvl30 I will probably go staff/hammer and specialise a little bit more.

ha, never had to grind on mobs for money, I'm level 30 and do the Duos/Hard Alerts, got 30k sat in the bank. you should never be grinding out mobs for an hour for cash, your times better spent doing missions and alerts by the time I dinged level 30 I had close to 20k as I didn't find a need to repair at all and picked up enough soda to last me right through.

yeah definitely if there's a large increase in dps go for it. but you'll be speccing all sorts of weapons eventually so don't worry about it. I've specced, Bow, Staff, Hand Blasters and Dual Wield so far. Completing Feats gets you points that once you get a hundred gives you an Extra skill point. in case you didn't know this already :)

I think my problem is that I come across the huge giant mobs that people are fighting in the street and I am constantly just dropping out the sky and joining in all the time, I find to much stuff in the cities to distract me instead of doing the missions xD Getting about 30 mins max during a week night for this game. Sunday is when I can plough mass hours into it.

haha completely understandable :P

Once I get in a game i tend to aim my focus right for hitting the big stuff. so in this case raids. Just a little strange this time around as I'm trying to get in with a group of people I've never known before, as I've found with all MMO's its time spent in, skill and generally getting yourself known so that people think hey 'blah blah' is online, lets go :P

Yeah I have been doing instances and missions with randoms recently and now there are around 5 of them that are spot on and we steam roll the missions :D Think this is the first MMO I've played where there hasn't been a single friend of mine playing so this time it is just a find a group and off I go play style atm. I guess once all the issue's get worked out with the game and those on OcUK who are on the reality lost server we can team up a little more :)
 
Currently have a toon on each Euro server just in case they go down :)

my main so far is a dual pistol/ ice only level 13 and i have respecd twice :) have also gone for a staff/fire, martial arts/mind and a hammer/gadgets all about the 10 mark.

If you have another weapon tree how do you swap to it i tried in load out and couldn't get it to work?
