Quote:Intro to Ouroboros is a 25+ mission arc.Gnomon
A crystal of fire & ice in a base can also be used and once done will unlock the portal for you. Personally I used the Introduction to Orobos mission tell it to teleport me to the contact who is in Orobos then quit the TF, grab the badge.
Job Done.
Not sure what level that mission is available from though.
However you personally can't start a flashback with a base's Pillar of Ice & Flame unless you are entrusted with the secret. You can get someone else to run a low level mission arc or badge mission flashback (negotiator is my favourite for this), at which point you'll get the Portal Power, but not the Entrusted with the Secret badge. Before the head start, you need to be at least 25 to use the power though. After, you can use it at level 14. -
Quote:Going Rogue Morality System - In plain English.Ok so, I've never done this before. I'm trying to go from Villain to rogue and I have completed 10/10 tips. Now what do I do?
Or it says Rogue Alignment Points 10/10
Read it, and if you have any questions, feel free to ask. -
Quote:Guide: Premium Accounts and Paragon Rewards. -by meI will keep subscribing but planning on going free for the kids, accounts.
where is the info on what you're left with once you go free? do loose your current characters (even if they're just "frozen) since premium accounts have only 2(?) slots, or do you get to pick what characters move on to the free game?
my kid's primary toon is a warshade, will he have to give it up be because only VIP players get EATs?
it's all very in unclear to me...
(I'll be moving it to the guides section after the head start.)
You get to choose which characters take the 2 global slots opened (or more depending on past/future character slot purchases + previous vet rewards + previous offers like having Going Rogue before the headstart).
Epic Archetypes (Hero or Villain) on a Premium Account: You have to buy access to those characters before you have assign a global slot to that character. The current price guide lists each EAT at 1,000 Paragon Points - separately. So if you want a PB and WS you'll have to spend 2,000 Paragon Points.
Controllers and Master Minds on a Premium Account: If you don't have the 5th Reward Tier filled, you'll have to unlock access before being able to assign a global character slot to that character. The current price guide lists each as 1,200 Paragon Points. You don't get those point refunded if you buy them early then fill the 5th Reward Tier. -
Not related to the color, but in February 2005, they had a buddy code give-away that new players could use instead of a retail purchase of CoH to start an account (15 days free, could continue to subscribe without a retail box).

Fare well, Stacker! I hope something positive will happen to bases soon.
I'm not holding my breath though. -

Quote:After 20 attempts, we isolated the "Green Stuff" badge and started sending people away from the area.I run Keyes badge runs 2x a night. So far I haven't done the hide a player or stay in HOS trick. I repeat it and eventually we all get in sync and after a few days we get the badges.
After a few frustrating weeks, I've stopped leading badge groups for Keyes (not last weekend, probably not this weekend) for a bit. I'll resume later though. Even when I resume, I'm going to ask most of the league to stay away from the AM fight. I'll probably ask some people to play decoy outside, and ask a few people to stay in the Hospital.
I'll not try for both LaC and AtGS in the same run, not with the teams I can get. -

Quote:Or have a button near the shield generator that gives the "all clear" signal, only to have the attackers warned and make another attempt.I have the perfect solution!!
Give the doors on the reactor room catwalk the Halloween treatment. The more you click, the more baddies come out.
That way teams that want to could take a breather between rounds if they needed to regroup or accommodate an AFK while other teams that want to speed it up or like to swim in a sea of NPCs could click all the doors at once.
EVERYONE WINS!!!
If the button isn't pressed, then the game sends the next wave when the previous wave fails to call in.
Only allow the button to be pressed when all the attackers are dead. -
As much as a barrier compared to not being able to play the character at all? That is what it comes down to.

Quote:I corrected an error in the template that prevented the direct link for each badge.Thanks for the link, very helpful. How do I obtain these? looking and can't find how.

Check it out again, and you'll see which badge is needed, and there will be a link to the badge. -
Quote:Options:My main concern is that the first experience of a returning premium character with an IOed character (who isn't of a level to get use of the Invention Experience) is having to replace all those IOs. If IOs degraded to SO levels, the first experience can be "diving back into the fight".
- Purchase a 30-day license (160 PP)
- Use a 2nd build (free, level 10+)
- Subscribe
- Hope you have tier 7 completed

You cannot target by rank (eb/boss/lt/minion/pet). At best you can target something with a specific name, like "sapper" or "gunslinger".

Quote:A suggestion: the game accepts Paypal. With it you should be able to send your friend money to their Paypal account (or make a paypal account where you deposit money and give them access to it). With that, they can buy the points directly.I have just one thing to ask sir:
I have a very close friend that wants to play but does not have a credit card. Now, I don't mind paying for them, and I want to give them the things they want (I hear the angel wings might be for sale, but that's irrelevant) without having to tie my card directly to their account. Would letting them play the account with me paying for occasional points and gifting them things be possible? Or would tying my card be considered against the rules? They live a distance away is why I'm asking.
Edit:
Yeah, I'm just repeating what Samuel_Tow said. -

Quote:Fixed, since I so rarely get the chance to correct Arcana, even if it is only a silly spelling mistake.And even if you die who cares (unless you're going for a badge that requires not dying) because you have to be level 50 to participate in the trials anyway. Its not like it will slow your progress to 51 by much: you die, you go to hospital, you stock up on insps, you come back out, you shoot stuff in the face again. Its like the worst the Praetorians can do to you is Teleport Foe you to the hospital. Big deal: that doesn't even break a nail.

Yes, a friend had that happen to him Monday night. He sent me a picture of 5 empty power trays. It was on a BAF, and just before that he was "solo" on a Lambda (the rest of the league seen him, but he couldn't see anyone on the league list but himself).

Quote:I got the Empath badge on my Ice/FF character. Took about 2 weeks thanks to crashing every 3 hours. Would have got it in a week if that didn't happen.As a point of clarification, unless things have changed the game does not count healing for badge purposes beyond an AT's base HP. An example of this is that as a tanker I only got credit for damage and others only got credit for healing me up to my base HP... the boosted HP from accolades and Dull Pain were ignored for those badges. This was extensively tested in the old damage farms where one character stands in lava while another has heal other on auto.

Quote:I'm looking at it from the perspective that what you have said could be interpreted in different ways depending on when a reader reads it.Just curious, what post are you reading? Because it certainly isn't mine. It doesn't imply a darn thing about what people will be when Freedom launches. It says "everyone subscribing right now is a VIP without being called a VIP" (paraphrase), with nary a hint at "after "right now"".

Reading it -right now-, what you wrote is correct (and I've said so).
However, the nitpicky part is what happens in a few days from now if someone reads it. You can say that everyone that is subscribing at this moment is a VIP, and some player has his/her account expire tomorrow expects they will be a VIP when freedom hits (without resubscribing). Yes, this is assuming some players are challenged in their logic. Given the numerous threads of this type over the last few months, I don't think that it is a bad assumption though.
