Ad Astra

No, sorry - the choice is for the whole character, not just the build. it doesn't reset to allow a different choice.

Standard Code Rant applies. While you see this as something "not that hard" you really don't have any way to know that.

WoW does not use our engine, so a comparison of the two is pretty meaningless.

After seeing the vid of the graphics changes coming in GR, maybe there will be programming resources directed towards making scabbards & sheaths behave this way, but the ones currently in-game most certainly do not work as you describe from WoW.

As for how "serious" this game is, I guess that's in the eye of the beholder.

True although I have observed recently on these boards that there have been a few threads pop up decrying how "empty" Freedom is right now. It may be that there has been a population shift away from Freedom, at least to a limited extent - also anectodally, a lot of folks said they were tired of Freedom's AE Babies & Farm/PL chatter back a few months ago.

Virtue is coming up as most stressed more often than it use to do.

For whatever that's worth.....

Agreed - or just about any flavor of Defender at all. Or anything that has to "actively" manage anything besides attacks, because apparently it's not that big a deal to have to constantly click attacks, but clicking any mitigation is a really huge deal.

Seriously.

You can only cure things that are a problem (well other than smoked meats).

Altitis isn't a problem, hence there is no cure.

I think you may combining and confusing 2 separate parts of the event.

The Banners part leads to a GM - but it is called "Greater Aspect" and it might look like Jack or Eochai, but it might not.

The regular hunting for Eo & Jack from last year is completely separate and can happen at the same time as the Banners part - in fact, I have seen stories of groups having to clear Eo out of the way because he spawned on top of one of the Banner locations.

The SG contact is the same place you set up the basic base (which is one entry room).

Once you have that set up, enter the base where you can start editing. To have teleporters, you will also need energy & control - how much depends on how many teleporters you want to have.

Will this be a solo base? if so,you really only need one teleporter. Change out the teleporter beacons attached to that teleporter to change destinations. it's cheaper that way by a good amount).

Several good guides out there - go check the stickied threads in the Base Construction forums.

This.

Honestly, if comments give you such exasperation, don't read them - easier said than done for some people, I guess, but I only look at them when a thread like this pops up.

This is actually a pretty sane way to price your items. Just recall how the system works:

Ex. 1 - Place an item for sale at 100 inf. Highest outstanding bid to purchase said item is 100,000. Item sells for 100,000 inf.

Ex. 2 - Place an item for sale for 50,000 inf. Highest outstanding bid to purchase is 100,000. Item sells for 100,000 inf.

Ex. 3 - Place an item for sale for 1,000,000 inf. Highest outstanding bid to purchase is 100,000 even though the last 5 sold for considerably more than that, "tricking" the seller to list at a higher price. Item sits on the market unsold.

Your listing fee in Ex. 1 is only 5 inf, and you still get the 100,000 (less the commissions). Why would you not list at that price?

The only thing to remember is to make sure you list the item for the minimum amount you are willing to accept for it. Listing it at 100 might mean that you will only get 95 (100 - 5). For lots of characters that's an acceptable price (especially compared to the vendor price of common salvage of 250).

The listing fee is WAI, so sorry, /unsigned.

P.S. Zolgar - this is also my strategy at the market, for the most part, so you are not so single-handed.

As in - they now hold 100 (one hundred) pieces of Invention Salvage, instead of the 999 (although actually it was 2500 pieces, that didn't display correctly) pieces of Base Salvage and Prototypes, Arcane Essences, etc. So be careful what you take out of old storage - until the level falls under 100, you can't replace it into that storage device.

You can convert the old Base Salvage to Brainstorms (which convert in turn to Invention Salvage) - but before you do, check the going rate at the Market. Some Base Salvage still gets a good price there because people are collecting it.

Well, unfortunately, you have just hit the big bottleneck in building a base (IMHO). The Prestige cost jump between the power/control of the Combo Unit/Oversight Room to the next level of separate Energy & Control Rooms and the basic Energy & Control items is way too big a gap.

You can only have one Oversight Room, period. To Upgrade, you must add rooms and add items.

I agree the Oversight Roomi is quite big. The only thing you can do is to divide it up and decorate it. I made a garden & player apartment in one of mine.

Filing a /Petition was what I suggested to you yesterday, Firewasp. A "Petition" goes directly to GM/Customer Support. A "Bug" goes to the techy guys, not a GM. I'm sorry if that wasn't clear in my post in Player Questions.

Regarding having to recraft the Teleporters - yes, it's now done with Common & Uncommon Invention Salvage. There are 3 recipes listed for both Tech & Arcane Teleporters, one each at the low level, mid level and high level salvages. Make a note of what salvage is required and then check the Market. Note that one of the recipes requires a Luck Charm (I would not advise using that one BTW). With some savvy shopping, your new Teleporters shouldn't cost you very much at all.

Yep, that's what it was.

Man, we're getting old in this game, aren't we, Cap?

Then almost definitely your problem is the bug I described. A quick /petition should answer the problem for you.

Welcome Back! (And welcome back to the 21st Century! I know what you mean about high tech and the country.)

Lots of stuff to catch up on while you were gone. In regard to bases alone - we had a massive pricing revamp in Issue 13 earlier this year. If you have any Prestige banked at all, you will be able to upgrade your base.
