Seems, at least for me, some of my characters are missing some of their progress bars after the update.

My main, is missing the progress to the badge following Unbroken Spririt....

There are others, but that is one to look at.

Created a new character this morning.

I went through outbreak, then headed to Atlas. Picked up my contact and
was lvling just fine.

Exit a mission and start burning some plus ones down.... and no xp.
Next mob.... same thing. Check the xp flag, and sure enough the xp flag is now set to No xp......

Ok... just how does it change itself?

Did the system just say.... oh wait big guy... your lvling way too fast for my taste, let me shut this off for a little while.

Anyway, turned it back on and all is fine. But this magic shut off thing needs a look'in at.

Hi CriticalKat.

I am on your side.... I spend alot of time during missions on a new team trying to figure out what I can do and can't do while tanking.

Like I mentioned before.... bouncing in a corner..... if they don't get the tell, I remove it from my list. If I tank forward.... and everyone follows... I kick that for the list..... Bounce? if that fails..... it is spawn to spawn.

And at that point.... it gets really slow.

BC

Ok.... last one.

I dislike the Idea of the tank having to "learn" the team.

There are seven other players that this "one" tank has to learn how to tank for.......

I much perfer.... the seven other members learn how the "tank" tanks.

I can't tell ya how how many teams I have been on that "(edit) the team" didn't understand what a simple bounce in the corner means..... I am dragging the bad guys to that location....

BC

Timid Tanks.... enough said.

BC

Being in AE with a lvl 17 (ice/cold) fender ticket monster(xp turned off).... with "looking for ticket team" over my head.... and never getting an invite.

Where is the PL maddness when I need it?!

BC

Peev.....

Never being allowed to attend an STF on any of my BC's/scraps.

But my Fire/rad has no problem.... come on guys.... my scraps need the badge also.

BC

Hi Early_Girl.

I can't say I get more email..... but my response to email is the same.... hit the spam button.

3 seconds later I am ready to rock and roll.

BC

I would want the Diné(Navajo) and Apache language server. Though there is only about 400k left alive.... but what the heck, ya can dream.

Yah tah hay!

I was on this afternoon, just logging in toons and moving them from day job to day job.

As I am doing this, I am running my 50's through Atlas to look for newbies to drop a bit of cash on.... it may be, enhancements, salvage or recipes.... just whatever my characters have on them, that I don't want.

I found two zero vet badge players on Champ that needed what I did not. So I dropped two lvl 50 Positron blast recipes on them. One of them was so new, that they didn't even know where the market was or what it was for.

Needless to say, that poor newbie was robbed of alot of inf today.... above Pos blast only netted them 50K.... though the amount tendered.... over 500k.

I understand this is all to protect "us" big kids from the RMTers.... but it sure makes me sad when doing something nice for some newbie, that they get taken to the cleaners, because they can only hold 50k.

Pretty nice kid.... hope they don't get turned off by the trial restrictions.

What are these players doing that you can't explain to them how to improve?

In all my time here I have put one person on (in-game)ignore.
I meet this young blaster while I was farming COT's in FF along the river for SO's.
He asked for an invite so I sent it.... come to find out he was only lvl 6. To his credit he made to FF all by himself.

I explained that I was herding COT's and to wait until I had them set. He says "ok".
So as I am lining up my next group.... he jumps in a spawn and dies.
I tp him out and ask him why he did that.... "oh.. I thought you where ready".

Rinse and repeat over the next 5-10 spawns.

Later that week he asks to get invited to the team I am on. I invite him and sk him. Spend time explaining he needs to wait on the tank...... A bit of team chat about tactics.... and before we are done talking, he in the middle of the 8 person spawn.... dead.

Tp him out.... explain to the team he is new and I will handle it.

Explain again...... dead. and again..... dead. and again...... dead.
This isn't going well.

Fast forward to about a month after we first met..... and I finally put the poor kid on ignore. He was Un-teachable.

I don't ever spend that much time trying to teach anyone how to play anymore.... For me, it's pretty much, just let the dogs run and have "their" fun.

I can/will adjust to the "wild" dogs.

Hi Stillhart.

You're wasting money buying salvage with tickets. You make much more spending your tickets on bronze rolls, selling those, and buying salvage with cash. Saying "salvage is free with tickets" is the exact opposite of what is really the case.

[/ QUOTE ]

I agree for the most part. But..... in the case of rare salvage... doing a few AE missions will get me enough tickets for that piece of savage. Running a few regular missions won't get me enough inf.

BC

Hey Kat.... any bonus time for "SO" Only builds? Whoops, never mind.... 10 minutes won't cut it with SO's only.

BC

The salvage is free via tickets and the total crafted cost is less than your high-end number.
edit: is a bit less than your high-end number for recipe cost.

BC

Hi FluShots.

I guess now ya know why I am reluctant to give... the numbers.

Also... I don't noramlly play, play, the market... but the wife needed the recipe in question... and I saw the delta.... and the rest is history.

BC

Hi FluShots....
Fair enough.... it's greater than 10,000,000 and less than 20,000,000 per transaction. That is as close as I am going to get ya.

I still think this [censored] recipe has some play in it... at least until someone steals it from me.

BC

I am buying [censored] recipes for [censored] inf. I craft them and sell them for [censored] inf... so.... about 7400% profit.

Am I doing good?

And for the life of me... I haven't figured out why you evil market guys/gals haven't come in and stole this gig from me.

Hi Atomic_Manz.

Just FYI.

You can run(if it hasn't changed) any of the Respec's to get all
the respec badges. I.E if you like the 34 respec version better than the 44.... you can(or could) run it three times(all trial timers apply).

I will see if I can assist you this evening.
Since your 50... I suppose you want to do this the fast way.... correct?

BC

Hi Atomic_Manz.

What lvl is the character in question needing a respec run?
