Quote:Probably wouldn't seem as weird if you are thinking of it as part of your 9-5 job on the west coast. I think it's more of a test than an event for the players.Originally Posted by Eiko-chan
Running an event at 2 pm local time on a west coast server seems a little weird to me.

Attention Virtue Heroes & Villains, the Rikti have broken through in unprecedented numbers in various parts of Paragon city and the Rogue Isles. I fear without fierce resistance they may be on the verge of establishing a new beachhead. Please join in resisting this alien menace!

I think they want to avoid having people make level 2 characters that can make random rolls.

I've heard they wanted to put him back in high school and give him "real life problems." Now, #1, didn't he have real life problems before? and #2, what the heck does high school have to do with real life problems?

I tested it yesterday on a gang of Trolls, and it identified the Trollkin Sluggers just fine (out of a large group of various other Trollkin). Remember that you have to use two quotes at the end to close the whole thing off. The command is:
/targetcustomnext enemy alive "trollkin slugger"
So, the macro becomes:
/macro TROLL! "targetcustomnext enemy alive "trollkin slugger""
And the keybind would be:
/bind 4 "targetcustomnext enemy alive "trollkin slugger""
Cheers!
hehe

Right now, we're guessing that's what's coming. The Staff has yet to come out and officially say so, but what they've said and done does seem to point that way.

"targetcustomnext enemy alive "marcone capo""
Works just fine. =) -
I wonder if this means Marvel studios will be able to use the Spider-man character in crossover movies.

As a means of gating content or rationing out XP, no they don't. As a means of providing entertainment to individuals who enjoy finding out the answers for themselves, yes they do.
You can find spoilers for all sorts of stories from all sorts of media on the Internet, but that doesn't mean people won't want to experience those stories unspoilered.
I don't think the mere logical possibility of knowing the 'answer' to something in advance should dissuade people from including riddles, enigmas, puzzles and so on in game content. -
Actually, the things I hate the most in this game are the caves and the one stupid glowie that can't be found. (The last mob stuck in a wall is no picnic either.) As a villain planting a bomb, that makes no sense anyhow. Why would you not know where you want to plant something? I'm not a big fan of "scavenger hunts" in that regard.

Quote:Which leads to the question of how you know that! lolOriginally Posted by Fleeting Whisper
Entrusted With The Secret can be obtained by having the 5th Column Gladiator badge. 5th Column Gladiator is obtained by having the first and second anniversary badges.
Since anniversary badges are obtained by logging in, a level 1 character could have the portal, though since the first two anniversaries are long gone, no new character could get it that low. -

Quote:The target command is also unfortunately useless for finding marcone capos. It will find anything named marcone OR capo as well as things named marcone capo.Originally Posted by Kelenar
I should add that /targetcustomnext will also target NPCs and friendlies. If you're on a Portal mission where you need to rescue 10 Scientists, you can use /targetcustomnext Scientist to spot them from the air. (PUG members tend to just think I have some super eye for hostages and named bosses.) As I recall, it will also work for glowies.

Quote:Did something happen? As far as I know, it still is available...Originally Posted by Neuronia
- Lost Savior was once available to villains! You needed a hero with the "Craft Lost Wand" mission queued, head to Rikti War Zone, invite a villain friend and craft the wand. Then, autocomplete the Defeat 20 Lost mission and both of you would get the badge.

Quote:Hm...good idea!Originally Posted by Tired Angel
Sorry bad choice of words on my part - I was trying to lump the APPs and PPPs into one.
And I do like the Patron Arcs, don't get me wrong, I guess the point I was trying to make was that if you dinged level 41 hero side you wouldn't have had to worry if you have done the arc before they can choose the power.
I guess in my head I saw it as the other way around - switch to blue side at 40, ding 41 and get the APPs, switch back to red and do the arcs at your pace to get the merits and respec and respec into the PPP if you wanted.
Anyway I think both things will happen and it all depends how the APPs/PPPs will work in GR. -

Sadly, the only reward for preventing his creation IS the badge, which is why he's often seen stomping around High Park with a couple duplicate buddies.

Quote:They are ancillary, not epic. Anyway, why is it "having" to do an "extra" arc? I thought more content was a good thing. They give some decent merits, too!Originally Posted by Tired Angel
I guess the flipside could also be asked, how many villains will switch sides at that point just to be able to get an EPP without having to do an extra arc.
The advantage would be to take the patron arc, get the merits and respec, then switch back to hero side so you get "the good powers". -
Quote:Demonic is much, much easier than archmage. I think the immobilizer ray is easier as well...Originally Posted by Harkness
Blueside Accolades are also much easier to achieve, and there's more badges overall. Assuming they don't allow us to "double up" on badges, I don't know why I'd ever take a blueside character over to red.
-
Speaking for myself, it was my experience that Mu Guardians were much harder to get villain side. I had to farm the square in Cap au diable. They just didn't occur naturally often enough in any missions. Unless you pick scirrocco as your patron.
Hero side, I ran a lot of STFs on my emp, and got that badge without any effort.
That's anecdotal of course, things have changed since then, such as the difficulty settings. -
So, nobody likes the idea of the badge being "special" because of the challenge?
Personally, I do like the sound of the warning that it is being scrambled. -

So...to summarize the thread:
You can get it by flashbacking the level 15-19 arc named Master of Destruction, given by Operative Wellman. It is the third mission. You will need to up your difficulty to 8 villains, probably set the level to -1, and kill the 3 outcast bosses, resetting the mission 33 times.
