If you were active during headstart:
You will get your points on your billing date normally, except for the next couple months, because Freedom headstart screwed up and set everyone's points date to the 13th (Freedom release). You'll get the next allotment on the 11th.
If you were not active during headstart:
You will get your points on your billing date.
(For completeness sake: Server transfer tokens are awarded on the first of the month for every VIP, regardless of billing date; Paragon Reward Tokens are awarded at the end of the subscription month like the old veteran rewards.) -
Fluffy not Fluffy enough!

Augh, you don't understand! My brain smarts drop like 40 points when I have to build without Mids. Look at what I did to my build without it! LOOK, DAMN YOU -
Yes, it has been available for about 12 hours now.

If you switch sides, you get the other side's version of that accolade. You keep the power.
This means you can look at the accolades and decide which ones are easier to get on heroside and which ones are easier to get on villainside, and get the villainside ones before you switch and the hero ones after.

Paragon Reward Tokens are given at the end of your subscription month (like veteran rewards used to).
Paragon Points are given on your billing date except for this month, anyone with billing dates before October 11th will get them on October 11th (November will change to normal).
VIP server transfer tokens are granted on the first of the month. All subscribers active on the first already got theirs. -

Quote:Yes, I knew what you were talking about, but NO, I was NOT posting to be snarky. I legitimately do think we need to clean up our language. I have seen a *LOT* of confusion because of people calling things by the wrong name. Especially PP and PRT, because they launched at the same time, and because they are awarded for free to VIPs...so people are confused about keeping them separate. Cleaning up our language means less confusion, which is exactly what I said.Originally Posted by Vega
Thank you very much for your corrections. I assume that you knew exactly what I was talking about and are attempting to be snarky.
And if you looked at the post above the one that you quoted, I already explained why you don't have your token - because they're awarded at the END if your subscription month, not your billing date - and PPs - because of Freedom's frontloaded PP, you'll get it later in October (but November will be normal, on your billing date).Quote:That is fine. It does not change the fact that my TOKENS have not been awarded and there is no where to find out. If you click the stickied post, there are links to dead pages.
BTW, you didn't get your server transfer token on your billing date, just noting. You got it on October 1, along with every other VIP. -
They're available in both Astral and Emp merits, for 10 or 2 respectively. Make sure you're not hiding anything.

Quote:Check in Character Items. They're not an account item, because each charge can only be claimed once, ever. Account items can be claimed once by every character. Character items can only be claimed by one character.Originally Posted by ItsJustJake
I think I need to contact support for one of the Paragon rewards. I took the Signature Hero power, but none of my characters have it, and it,s not in my list of claim able items.

Quote:There is no such thing as "reward points". There are "Paragon Points" (which VIPs get 400 or 550 of each month, and are otherwise purchasable) and there are "Reward Tokens" (which VIPs get 1 each month, and a few other options).Originally Posted by Vega
When are Paragon reward points supposed to be given? to the best of my recollection, when Freedom launched, I was given points that put me to where I should have been on Sept 1. My billing dates are on the 25th and 28th, so when those dates rolled around, I expected to see a 400 point stipend, one paragon point and one server transfer per account. All I saw was an additional server transfer.
I saw the post about the grant dates for points (which I assume is the 400), but nothing about Reward points. I must say that I am very confused with the way that this has been setup.
Points and tokens. Two separate things. Cleaning up our language is the first step to not confusing ourselves or each other. -
Quote:Re-posting this because people still seem to be confused.Originally Posted by Aggelakis
Let's say your billing date is October 5.
1. Sever Transfers are awarded on the first of the month. (i.e. October 1)
2. Paragon Points are awarded on your billing date (i.e. October 5) - however, Freedom launch was frontloaded with extra PP, so if your account was active during launch, you got extra PP. Therefore, if your billing date is before October 11 (according to a GM), you won't get your PP until October 11
3. Paragon Reward Tokens are awarded at the end of your billing month (i.e. November 4)
Yes, this means that anyone whose billing date is October 1 through October 10, you won't get your PP until October 11.
Yes, that means the rewards are all on a different award date. Yes, that is kind of dumb. -
/bind key "powexecname PowerName$$local MessageHere"
Change "local" to whatever channel you prefer using.
Please note that this gets very old, very fast. -
Must do it at a trainer, using the same window that changing your title uses. Only your title changes color, your name, badge, and supergroup name stay the same.
Your name can be color changed by using "Help Me!" or "Helper", but that isn't using the system the way it's meant to be and is generally frowned upon by people who actually want help or want to help others. -

Looks really bad considering MA and SS are the "brawler" type powersets. Street Justice just looks like a last minute idea. The best move is the uppercut, and not by much. -
Quote:The license was just like the Level 6 "unlocked everything permanently" reward. You could play arcs, with rewards, and you could publish arcs.Originally Posted by Honbrid
I don't know how the license worked in Beta, but being able to run the arcs in MA and getting rewards for running those arcs are on two separate reward tiers. The license may have included rewards?
The full list of rewards unlocks is:
* Access to play without rewards at Tier 2's bonus
* Access to play with rewards at Tier 4's bonus
* Access to create/publish personal stories at Tier 6's bonus

Go to the server you had the character on. Type the following:
/getglobalname charactername
File a petition to see if you can restore access to the global name that that results with. -

Quote:Nemesis Staff = Science/TechOriginally Posted by Gangrel_EU
the black wand and Nemesis staff veteran powers have their damage increased by being of the relevent origins (details are listed in the power). I cannot remember them off the top of my head which origins affect which power...
Blackwand = Magic/Mutant
Natural grants bonuses to both.
Easiest way to remember this is the nem staff is tech-y, and Tech and Science go well together! So the nem staff is Tech/Sci, so that makes the Blackwand Mag/Mut. Natural is special and hogs them both. -
Quote:A free player applying a box should result in 3 total tokens:Originally Posted by gameboy1234
Yeah, I don't think you get more than a Tier 2, but you do get a free month of VIP, and all the Tier 2 rewards listed above, as well as GR content permanently on your account.
1 for having an account (everyone gets this token)
1 for having a retail code
1 for one month of VIP (awards at the end of the month)
Additionally, a free player applying a GR:Complete box would not have to pay for:
Alignment System
Praetorian character creation/Praetorian content access (*does not include First Ward)
Alpha costume pieces
Omega costume pieces
Resistance costume pieces
Praetorian Police costume pieces
2 Auras
8 Emotes
1 crappy power
4 power sets (*MM and Controller require separate unlock after VIP time runs out)
-- it saves thousands of Paragon Points worth of goodies. -
You certainly can get the villain epics as a rogue. All of the villain contacts function just fine for a rogue, because rogues are considered villains for content purposes. Talk to Arbiter Rein in front of the Grandville tower to get started.
