Ninja Run is currently 500 Paragon Points or $6.25 USD.

Video response from Weird Al Yankovic.

(Yes, this is a joke.)

Thank you for the warning. However the prices currently on Beta make it abundantly clear that Paragon Studios intends to raise prices by up to 3.5x the current rate.

I doubt I'll use the new store, even with the monthly stipend, because the prices are too high in most cases.

Edit:
Comparison with Paragon Market.

To my knowledge Triumph hasn't been able to get "Avoids the Green Stuff" or "Loves a Challenge".

As far as I know, I'm the only one willing to even organize Keyes Badge runs. We are two months after Keyes was introduced to the live servers. How much longer do the developers need to be shown that something needs to be changed?

And the attitude of "better be quick or you'll never get X badges" is completely repugnant.

The Explore, History, Defeat, and Accomplishment badges I have no issues with or comments about.

Regenerate This - Will be difficult, but with a coordinated team it should be good.
Tour Guide - If they've fixed the last encounter since I've played it in March, it should be possible to do on a PUG with difficulty.
Preservation Specialist - I will loathe PUGs for this badge.
Avatar Assassin - Yeah, right. I think whoever is designing badges for the Incarnate Trials should be fired.

Well, for part of each year, I'll be caught up with players that have subscribed longer than I have.

The game needed more day jobs like it needs less subscribers. In other words, it didn't need any more day jobs.

Sadly it was in the closed beta sections (both Issue 18 closed beta and Issue 20 pre-beta) and comments in the closed beta "play with the developer" sessions.

The reasoning, if I remember correctly, was that it was a super group event not a league trial. The CoP was always designed for super groups, it was to be a selling point as to why you needed to have a base for your group. It is, as you guessed, there to provide groups with a reason to get raid teleporters and oracle/mission computers.

I'm talking about being told "no" repeatedly over the course of about 9 months. I have the distinct impression that if you want the CoP Trial added to the LFG Queue, you'll have to inspire the developers to make something else for the raid teleporters and oracle/mission computers. If you can't come up with a compelling use for those (besides base raiding), then you aren't going to get anywhere with asking for the CoP to be removed from bases.

I think this will always be the sticking point for the request to remove the CoP from bases.

They have also promised to rotate the Celestial Armor back IN. They will not be permanently unavailable.

Wow, putting me in with Arcanaville? Thanks for the compliment!

One of the players that influenced me in the game was some person (forget who) who camped on top of a Paladin Construction site. This prompted me to learn all I could about badges.

Later, of course, my first player attack of the construction site was such a lag-fest, but immensely fun as well. I found myself thinking, "wow, this is a city filled with superheroes fighting great odds." This set my personal benchmark for everything since. That random group of heroes battling the clockwork definitely influenced me in this game.

And we've been told that will not happen. It took Castle 3 years to get the CoP changes, and the developers have said it will continue to start in bases.

Have you considered the fact that you are assigning the same keys up to 5 times?

Known Issue:

Everything in Reward Levels 1 to 7 will be unlocked for that account if the subscription ends and you do not pay again. That account will have 29-31 Reward Tokens.

Well, my Valentines 2005 Buddy code was active for 2 weeks during Issue 3.

I started fully subscribing with Issue 4.

Any retail code, including this $2 deal, grants Tier 2.

VIP = active subscription. Say Freedom launches in September. If you pay for your subscription in September, October, and December, but not in November your account will be a VIP in September, October, and December. During November, your account will be a Premium account with all the applicable restrictions.

See the guide I linked to above for what permissions are given to what level of existing accounts.

Samuel, please read the first post in this thread:

Guide: Premium Accounts and Paragon Rewards.

If you have any questions after reading it, feel free to send me a PM with your questions or post them in that thread.

No, that wont work. The buddy code is effectively the same code as the $2 sale.

The change allowing EB versions to count was made at the same time the EB versions were made. The game, according to Positron, can't tell the difference between a AV and EB versions of critters. Just like it can't tell the difference between the War Wolves by rank.

For instance if they made a minion ranked version of Anti-Matter, that would count for the badge.

Buy uncommon recipes and put them on the Auction House. Or convert them to threads for components.

The names on the "Trial 59602" (and the like) were more than likely RMTs with names no sane person would want to use anyway.

Not in August, note that she doesn't give a timeframe:

Fixed for accuracy.
