  1. Oh ok I was told it didnt matter but ya I am a Vigilante. Thank you for the help.
  2. I have been working on Professional Liar day job and the progression bar is now maxed out and when I hover over it I no longer get a % but it has not awarded me the badge. I have spend extra time at the location to no avail. Wanted to see if anyone else has had any trouble before I bugged it.
  3. Any Idea if once this goes live if we increase the size of our plot and then decrease it again will we get the adjusted balance back? If so that would mean I would get an extra million prestige back which would help a lot.

    Im sorry to say this but I would rather not get another power that misses 75% of the time just give me better accuracy on the ones I already have. I love the powers but the miss so bloody often you can’t rely on them.

    They only miss 25% of the time against even-cons, and, as covered earlier in this thread, there are various ways to boost the accuracy of Vet attacks. And in the levels where Vet attacks are most useful, the i12 "Beginner's Luck" accuracy boost makes them quite accurate for a good while.

    Normally I am not a naysayer but where as I truly love the temp powers I must have some really awful luck because the last couple weeks I have been paying closer attention to some of my powers and the temp powers hit 1 out of every 5 attacks. Thats just an average mind. On my main who is fully outfitted with bonus sets that is not 25%. I am in no way saying you are wrong but this is what I have come up with over the last few weeks. I totally agree with the fact that they are a life saver in the beginning levels though. I cant imagine starting a new character without them now.

    So this is after running Herostats (or manually logging every hit roll from your combat tab)? Or is this just a "feeling?" Running Herostats during even a single long play session (which isn't a very big sample size, but should be sufficient) should get you enough data to prove or disprove your "feeling." I guarantee you if you do that, the number will be much closer to 75% than it is to 25% (and that's assuming you don't have any tohit buffs going on helping the Vet attacks, in which case the number would be higher).

    The numbers I came up with were my own so I took your advice and tried hero stats I ran all day with my WS who is 37 and not decked out like my main. I was on heroic solo and teamed and the numbers are Nem staff 45.80. For what ever reason Sands didn't register so I have no idea what they were. This was about a 8 hour session and yes I know I need a life Anyway there it is. I never realize hero stats did that I never paid it much attention cept for badges so thanks

  9. Personally my favorite thing about this issue is the quality of life additions such as stores in kings row, trams in sky and FF and trainer in PI

    Badge Questions

    [ QUOTE ]
    Ok, before I ask my question let me just state that I ran several searches on this forum for the answer but kept getting vague lists and nothing that actually answered me.

    I was changing my costume around tonight as I always do. It's almost like habit to go to the face and alter my outfit. Anyway, while messing around with it, I received a New badge right then and there. Then I got a message that said new costume parts.

    I jumped with joy. Now I had even more parts to pick from and I just love outfitting and design. The problem is, I see no new selections for any new parts at all.

    I tried to check which badge I had gotten but I honestly have no idea which is something that displeases me with this game. I am a fairly new player to CoV. I've been here a little over a week. Everytime I get a new badge I get no message of what it is or what it was for. So I have no idea which badges I already had and which ones are new. To be honest I just about stopped caring when I got a new one.

    Trying to look around and find out what badges are new and which is old is something that gives me trouble and I'd rather not deal with the hassle. Unless I wrote down each badge from day one, I don't see how anyone can really keep up. It's confusing for me especially as a new player.

    So my question lies in my rambling. What new costume parts did I obtain and where can I find them? It's the first time I got a badge while in the tailor shop so I hope that helps because that's really all the information I have about it.

    I plead with the developers to make badges more user friendly.

    You may need to edit your tabs in the chat box. If you right click on the tab of your choice and the select edit you can add or remove various topics. No I may be mistaken but the badge message should show up in under the system topic (it will be green). It will tell you when ever you receive and enhancement, Insp, salvage or badge and the name. Then you just need to find the badge to see what it was for.

    Badge Questions

    Here's a question, what level is Arbiter Leary because I got the bug now with him that he stopped talking to me and tells me I never met the requirement for him, even though I have both respec badges and I did half his missions. Is he 35-40 or 35-39 like many of the contacts whose levels need adjusting. Just wondering if by hitting 40 I will outlevel him or not because thinking the fix might be a while.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    He is 35-40 I ran into the bug that prevented him from speaking to you after completing a respec but now that it is fixed I have started to recieve missions from him again with my lvl 40 MM

    Ok so upgrading from CoH to CoH DVD will give my characters the ViP Accolade ? Excellent!

    [/ QUOTE ] OK so patience is not one of my redeeming qualities, sorry if I missed this in my quick skim thru this thread but, is this a new-soon-to-come thing..I have a few alts that would love vip but my upgrade to CoV dvd addition did no such thing

    [/ QUOTE ]
    To get the badge you need the CoH DVD not the CoV DVD. CoV gave the Arachnos emblem and the special helm. The CoH gave the badge and a special cape.

    Also, the Bug Hunter Accolade that exists. Let me quote the support team from the email:

    [ QUOTE ]
    Thank you for contacting the PlayNC Support team regarding the Bug Hunter badge. There are no in-game mechanisms for players to earn the Bug Hunter badge. This badge is only awarded to players in the game under extraordinary circumstances determined by the development team. The PlayNC Support and QA teams are not awarding this badge for bug reports received.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    So, what do they consider extraordinary? 1700 play hours on my main isn't extraordinary? Having 295 badges collected? 38 of a possible 43 souvenirs? Ship you all a case of scotch for our CoH 2nd Anniversary in May? Again, just a hazy thing that can number any amount of "extraordinary" events, would like more info about what qualifies.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    The bug hunter is exactly what it says it is. It is awarded to those that find major bugs or exploits in the game. For example Burnin_up just recieved it on the infinity server for discovering and reporting the Prestige Exploit. So that is what they mean by extraordinary.

    Badge Questions

    Positron is there any plan to add more villian bosses to the outside areas?
    Some villian classes have them but others do not and as it stands right now the only way to get lets say the Bone Daddy or Master Illusionist badges is to farm missions. Then theres the Tsoo Sorcerers badge which seems to stop counting after 25 or so. Just to name a few. BTW thank you for taking the time to answer these questions.
  16. I to must add my thanks and apperciations to these changes. Thank You
  17. I dont understand then I just spent the last 3 hours opening presents and had to of opened at the very least 300 and still i dont have the badge, and to boot during that entire time I only recieved one temp powered snow ball
  18. I got a big kick out of the Newspaper mission Kidnap Jack Emmet the head designer for the game Freedom Phalanx. To funny

    So that like getting 1 free ACC DO in all Archery powers. Against a target with no defense, thats a 87% chance ToHit.

    Looks like you were right! Archery is indeed the weakest blaster primary. But you'll neeeever miss!

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I truly wish that were true but I still constantly and continuously miss with archery. I have a Trick/Archery Defender and so far my max number of misses in a row have been 7 but I’m still counting. Now if that is 87% accuracy then I am truly missing something.
