  1. Is this a Paragon Points question, as in your title, or is this a Paragon Reward Token question, as it actually seems to be ("bonus respec token")? Because the answer is different:

    1. Respecs purchased on the Paragon Market is ONE respec to be used on ONE character.
    2. Respecs obtained via the Paragon Rewards Program is ONE respec to be used on EVERY character, both existing and new.

    Let's all clean up our language in reference to the new currencies. This causes less confusion and misunderstanding between people asking and answering questions. Points are spent on the Market. Tokens are used in the Rewards.

    'Free' Transfers

    They gave us 3 months of points because July, August, September = 3 months. They gave us 1 server transfer because they said they would give us one when Freedom went live.
  3. Afterburner puts you in Only Affecting Self. None of your toggles are detoggled OR suppressed, they just don't work on anyone but yourself.
  4. To make sure that the patch didn't break any of your files.

    The old patcher did the same thing, btw.
  5. Correct. HVAMs are only available to heroes and villains.
  6. Have heard mumbles in global channel that the minimum is either 10 or 11 (conflicting reports).

    Defeating Igneous spawns grant plenty of time to get to the end and complete the mission normally.

    If you have the option ticked to hide unclaimable rewards, it doesn't choke on them because they are not listed.

    But yeah a REAL exit should be put in there.
    There *is* a real exit.
  10. Celestial is available at character creation and anytime afterward.
  11. /bind numpad1 "+$$teamselect 1$$powexecname Temporal Selection"
    ...etc...
    /bind numpad8 "+$$teamselect 8$$powexecname Temporal Selection"

    The "+$$" at the beginning forces the game to activate one command on keypress, and the second command on keyrelease.

    Make sure to hit the key slowly to activate first teamselect then powexecname, because the game gets all confuddled if you hit the key too fast, and you can place a buff somewhere you didn't mean to.
  12. No, it is saying that TO UNLOCK AURAS, you had to do a mission per-character at level 30 or buy the unlock per-character from the Astral Merit vendor. Now, TO UNLOCK AURAS, you can do a mission per-character at level 30, or buy the unlock per-character from the Astral Merit vendor, or buy the Aura unlock from the Paragon Market for your whole account.

    It's not their fault if you think it's talking about the auras themselves. It's an aura unlock. Therefore it's talking about unlocking auras.

    Signature arcs?

    You get the standard merit rewards (2) and everything in there is still worth a little more XP/inf than standard enemies.

    Steamjump does not work like flight AT ALL, it works exactly like the GvE jumppack with a shorter recharge timer. It has unlimited upward movement, but your forward movement is still limited by what mobility you already have. So if all you have is Sprint, then Steamjump is only really good to get over big obstacles (walls, buildings, cliffs, etc.)

    Signature arcs?

    The villain one is more fun than the hero one.

    The Market as in Paragon Market, no the consignment shop. Free players (all of them) and many (if not most) Premium players do not have access to the Invention system (Preem access depends on veteran L7 Tier Bonus or $2/mo mini-fee), and thus none of the invention costumes.

    Learning proper English from the City of Heroes forums is COMPLETELY DIFFERENT than learning proper English from "most other game forums".
  18. There is apparently a way to make it look like a real desktop, and there is also apparently a way to have the "Windows XP Like" non-bubbly style. However, being that I don't have it myself I have no idea how to tell you how to set that permanently. But someone who works at Microsoft was at my D&D game last Saturday talking about it.
  19. Probably better to ask this down in the base editing forum, as that's where the base freaks ( ) hang out.
  20. The NCLauncher is still advertising the "bring a friend back" offer that grants your friend and you some free time if you bring them back and they resub. It's no longer available under NCsoft Account > Game Accounts > [account name], where it was found before. If it's no longer found there, update the instructions on the page that the blurb links to (here). If it's no longer functional, stop using that blurb.

    Missing aura

    Searching for "wisp +aura" gets several hits with other people seeing the issue. No redname comment that I can find.

    I just want to note how stupid it would be for them to allow the powers to be used at 35, but still not unlockable until 40. How incredibly stupid that would be. How insanely, incredibly stupid. Honestly. What the heck.
  23. I'm seeing tons of comments about this issue. Most common solution is to scroll down until the line is at the top, and about half the line isn't visible.
  24. /respec only works with free respecs granted by the devs and respec recipes. Trial respecs, vet respecs, and purchased respecs utilize the respec contact.

    Otherwise you need to visit Jack Wolfe in Atlas Park for heroes, or Arbiter Lupin in Nerva Archipelago or Arbiter Sawyer near Pocket D in Port Oakes for villains.
