I do. I expect that either they simply won't change on Nov 6 and it will remain Ms Lib and Lord Recluse until Nov 30 or there really is a tentative schedule for the remaining 4 weeks that just wasn't published. I have no basis for this expectation other than a bit of optimism and my best guess at how the feature was implemented on the back end.

Barring red name response which I'm not holding my breath for, I guess we'll find out next Tuesday. Remember the WST is highlighted on the LFG tab for any character high enough to run it. Ms Lib/LR for the last month would be somewhat appropriate I think...

As I understand it, Double XP WAS on several weeks ago for the weekend. It was subsequently turned back off until Oct 18.

I have been burning patrol xp for the last few weeks, an indicator that DXP was not on. Now I am not burning it (it stays the same value except for when I die). Therefore, my conclusion is that it has not been on for several weeks, but is now.

For Frankenslotting purposes, it is interesting that a +3 SO, 40 IO, 20 Triple Set IO, and 24 Dual Set IO are all roughly the same total increase so it's definitely the way to go for maxing increase per slot.

My typical progression is similar to Aett's. I buy SOs at 22, refresh them at 28 (so I can combine them), and then start IOs and sets at 32. Buying from the vendor can be done in 5 minutes if you have your build plan handy and you walk out fully loaded.

Wrong dates. From the linked post:

Yes, you need to refresh them periodically. Here is my DO/SO schedule:
12 - Go to the origin specific store in Skyway, Steel Canyon, or Cap au Diable and buy level 15 DOs.
18 - Go back to that same store and refresh your DOs with level 20s. Note that I wait until 18 so that I can "combine" them with the 15s and have a 75% chance to get an extra level (denoted by "20+").
22 - Go to the origin specific store in Talos, Independence Port, or Sharkhead and buy level 25 SOs. You can't combine DOs and SOs, so just replace them at 22.
28 - Go back to that same store and refresh your SOs with level 30s. See the combine note above. Same applies here. I also go ahead and buy all the 30s I will need for leveling until 31 so I don't have to return each level.
33 - Go to the origin specific store in Brickstown*, Founders Falls*, St. Martial; or the vendor in Cimerora, Midnight Club, or Rikti War Zone. Refresh with 35s; buy future needs through 36.
*The hero side enhancement contacts in these zones require you to complete a mission for them before you can buy from them.
38 - Go to the origin specific store in Brickstown*, Founders Falls*, St. Martial; or the vendor in Cimerora, Midnight Club, or Rikti War Zone. Refresh with 40s; buy future needs through 41.
43 - Go to Ghost Falcon store in Peregrine Island*, Elite Quartermaster in Grandville, or the vendor in Cimerora, Midnight Club, or Rikti War Zone. Refresh with 45s; buy future needs through 46.
48 - Go to Ghost Falcon store in Peregrine Island*, Elite Quartermaster in Grandville, or the vendor in Cimerora, Midnight Club, or Rikti War Zone. Refresh with 50s; buy enhs you'll need for 49 and 50 too.

Also, feel free to combine any dropped enhancements that match slotted ones as you go.
No, no button; but as others have noted; you can simplly replace your SOs with the analogous form of Common IO and get (most of the time) slightly better performance that doesn't have to be refreshed.

Yes, that is confusing.

The PICTURE shown on the screen is all the same, but the effect is not. In other words, enhancements from the same set all look the same, but they are really different, and only hovering over them will show that. In that example, it looks like he has 5 Perfect Zingers Taunt Set Enhancements. Below that, he shows the Recharge/Accuracy enhancment, but in that window you can see all the others too: Taunt, Taunt/Rech, etc.

In summary, for Common IOs, the picture denotes the enhancement type (yellow reticle for Accuracy, Red Flame for Damage); but for Set IOs, the background color typically indicates type (black for Taunt), but the picture denotes what set it belongs to (open mouth for Perfect Zinger).

So, only 1 miss and 3 bonus badges. That brings our total badges for the weekend to 12/16 that we tried for plus 6 that we didn't!

Overall, I consider the event a huge success. Hopefully, folks had fun and got a few badges they needed. We probably won't be iTrialing as a group for a while as we kick off our Water Blast Superteam on Friday (everyone welcome).

PS - A few of us hung around after the event and joined Assault Wound's "Loves a Challenge" Keyes run. Only 13 folks, but we got the badge that we missed on Friday. Yay!

We also finished off the evening by running a Magisterium. Got Shadow Master, but were not even close on the Ready to Rumble try. That's another tough one to get.

We ran very close to on time the entire evening, and I only screwed up once by filling the league while someone was swapping (There was someone else with a similar name. They were very cool about it and understood keeping track of 24 is tough sometimes. Thanks!) We got 8 badges on 5 trials. Come back out on Sunday for more fun and badge tries. The Magi run last night was unofficial; we'll still be running by the listed schedule.

Yes, hopefully, we'll get the poll up soon and can start the process for our next project to start in July. I rely on arafel to do that since he always takes care of us, but if help is needed there, just let me know.

I won't be online this weekend, but am interested in the Mag badge run. Before we move on, I also would like to host an iTrial extravaganza. We can advertise to get our name out for new folks too. I think we could attempt all the trials over the course of 2 nights on an upcoming weekend. I can help lead any of them (less familiar with UG, DD, and MoM, but very comfortable with any others). I would recommend the core group bring +3s and we can do badge runs on the easier trials.

You know I'll try anything, but I think we need to do it the "easy" way a few times first to have any shot at success. Assume that everyone has never even seen the trial before.

TheMagicMan is tier 4 on all pre-I23 incarnate slots, but that is my only toon with more than alpha at tier 4 I think. IMO, having a Rare everything is just fine. There is only a small, incremental difference between tier 3 and 4 and it's rarely worth the time investment for altoholics like us.

I vote we stick with the MoM and DD for now. If we own those, Mag may be in the cards. If we own it on easy mode, maybe plan a badge run before we move on to the next project.

I still need Essences on several toons so STFs/LRSFs are great for me too. Bonus Notice for more shards this week too.

Awesome! Let's shoot for tonight and/or Sunday, depending on shifts and numbers. I'm hoping a +4 Khan/Cuda is on tap as well. I think with a little communication we can get the storms. My assumption is they aggro just like any other mob and can be column pulled in that room. If not, we may just have to move Penny around to them. The trick will be whether we stay tight, keep up the buffs and heals, and can stay alive long enough to move them.
I probably could have worded that better. What I meant was a single AT melee team. So, all tanks or all stalkers, not a mixture of melee ATs.
King Chisel was an Earth/Thorny Dom on the earth project, but they are fairly rare.

I actually really like the idea of a single AT team, and all Corruptor or Controller teams are quite powerful; however, I actually liked the idea of an all-melee team that we discussed. I would vote Tankers with Stalkers a close 2nd (I hear they are much stronger after the recent buffs). Heck, even Doms might be a good mix and are something we rarely see on our projects. This may be surprising considering I'm normally all about the force multipliers, but maybe it's for some variety both in our projects and in my normal play. There is no doubt that this would be less powerful than all buffers, but it will certainly be different. We can still pick up team friendly powers like Leadership to give us some stacked buffs. If I had to choose a buff type, I'd go Controller so I can try out Darkness Control.

I came to this forum last week to make this very suggestion and then got distracted by a shiny. I came back today only to see someone had beaten me to it.

I agree completely. I play on several different servers, including ones that are typically the most populated. This means that I end up scrolling to the very top or bottom very frequently. As Kitsune Knight alludes to, there is space above and below that could be used. Otherwise, the height of each server could be diminished a bit to make room for all of them.

My only question is whether the number visible on screen is determined by resolution. I can always see all but 2 servers. Can anyone else see more/less?
