  1. I ran it on two of my characters, and they weren't there. I went into the water and everything. I figured maybe I had some sort of graphics issue on my machine.

    Then I helped someone do their arc, and there they were!

    I ran it on a third character of mine.... not there.
  2. A character could very easily open up a gift, in a level-appropriate zone, which spawns +5 to them. So, should they have to attempt to defeat the three +5 minions that spawned on top of them before they're allowed to open another gift?
  3. I am in love with my Ice/Cold Corruptor. I play primarily Tankers and Scrappers, so it was quite a departure for me... but she is now second only to my main Tank in my favourites list.
  4. I just got the mission and did it on my (mostly SO'd) ice/cold corruptor without difficulty.

    I did not need to use any inspirations (except a green when I jumped into the lava by mistake :/).

    I got him to about half health, debuffed (Infrigidfate/Benumb/Heat Loss), hit him with sleet, and took out his bifurcations. He followed me down, I hit him with sleet again, and just kept hitting him. From door to defeat, it took about 5 minutes.

    Not a silly question... I don't know that there IS a way to force a patch. As soon as someone said patch notes were up, I opened my client, and a patch applied. I was unable to log in. I had to restart my client multiple times, since 3:00 EST. Eventually, another patch came and applied. It said it was 3.8GB, but it patched and applied in about 3 minutes.

    I believe I patched three times (since 3:00), before being able to log in.

    My issue is that I did receive the patch, I patched, and I am still unable to log in.

    Yep, I was in game when it went down at 1:00 EST, but others were reporting the patch notes being up, and being able to log in around 3:00 EST.

    Edit: received and applied a third patch. I am now able to log in.
  9. Me too, despite applying the patch.

    I patched up, applied them, and now I can't log in, receiving the same message as the above-stated.

    I closed and verified, and I still can't log in.

    Umm...

    While I've only tanked Hami once since i19, I received my reward. We were doing evacless raids, and I stayed on my Mito until the last bloom. All the tanks went in to hit hami a half-dozen times, and we all received our rewards.

    Is it? I thought it had something to do with which neighbourhood of the zone.

    Last night, I Was running around Talos on my level 21 scrapper. I had forgotten how they spawned, and thought it was player-level. In the yellow areas, I was getting level 20-22 spawns. When I opened a few in the red areas, I was getting level 27 every time.

    It was the same in Peregrine. By the docks, I was getting 42-ish spawns. Nearer to Portal Court, they were 49 and 50.

  14. I list most everything for 1-5 inf. I would imagine a lot of people do.

    Thing is, it doesn't matter what you list it for... what matters is what what it's purchased for.

    I am more concerned with costumes then powers at this point, I really wish they would let me redem ninja run for already having good vs evil edition.
    GvE doesn't give Ninja Run. It gives a Jump Pack.

    Ninja was merely saying combining the powers from GvE and the MA pack is useful

    " and with sports, is banana mc jammy pants"

    Yes, it was 1 of those you had to be there moments but i assure you it was HILARIOUS and i think of that each time. I think this guy also did a monster truck style theme saying the name.


    ya i know. Anyway...
    Glad you like it

    I used to get tells all the time from people who liked the name, and still do from time to time. I've gotten a handful of negative tells. One told me the guy would never invite me to a team, because with a name like Banana McJammyPants, it's obvious I don't take myself, the game, or my teams seriously.

    I agree. "Scarborough Fair" is one of my very favourite names I've seen in game.

  23. Last time, I lost about a billion worth of stuff, which I'm not overly concerned about.

    This time, I have an email with 200 mil that I had already claimed (Saturday).
  24. I've gotten four.

    Two, I sold when they were going on the market for about 16 million (I don't know why this figure has stuck with me, but I remember selling it for exactly that). Two, I've gotten recently. I gave them both to players on the team I was on at the time.

    Fastest ITF?

    during beta, we did an ITF that was, to borrow your phrasing, "as designed", in about the same. Our intent was to kill all in the caverns and at the altar, and kill as many as we could in the subsequent missions, to see how many incarnate shards would drop. (The average was 12, incidentally). I was very pleased as well.
