Quote:Its not an arc run very often sadly but heres the link to it.
Daedalus doesn't deal with Arachnons. The soldiers invading Cimerora are Malta.
http://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Daedalus...er_.2840-50.29
Its a short few missions with one hell of a tough fight in the middle, but its quite fun -
Quote:Both the Aaron Thiery and Twinshot arcs involve Arachnos to varying degrees to introduce them to the players.
Where do they show up in Cimerora? Daedalus' pits you against Cimeroran Traitors and then Malta. The ITF pits you against 5th Column and Traitors.
And as was mentioned, the end of the Praetorian arcs when you're hitting toward 20 introduces you to Arachnos and gives you an overview of the Rogue Isles if you choose to go Villain.
In cimerora the arc your talking about is his second one iirc, his first one is to recover the item [name escapes me] that ghost widow has stolen. -
Quote:Pft! Anybody who says STJ underperforms should come see my character destroy entire mobs in 2/3 hits max! STJ has the PERFECT blend of Multiples/Single target attacks imo for a scrapper!Many folks out there may think that Street Justice underperforms, but if it does I haven't noticed. My 50+3 StJ Brute is doing just fine and I'm having more fun with that powerset than any other in the game (and I started with issue 2). In fact, it seems to me that StJ is so good--and so much fun--that it could be in danger of a nerf in an upcoming release. And that would make me very, very sad.
Sorry for the threadjack...don't mean to turn this into a StJ discussion... -
The start of that story does actually sound like something that would work quite easily in this game, one that i certainly would play!

*talks on behalf of Union in GMT*
On Union there are quite often iTrials being set up on a daily basis from 6pm GMT in pocket d. Sometimes [quite a lot lately with the trial buffs] you'll see them being run almost all day constantly, but its more of a safe bet to keep the channels open from 6pm.
Though only join them if . . . . you can avoid the green beam of doom!STILL need that badge on rashnu!
I mean seriously, how hard is it to stop what your doing and run away from the green!

Quote:Saying this, what story would you give them for future arcs?
Recluse can be a great antagonist, but he needs to be handled with care, and his organisation needs to be less obviously evil. It could still be obvious to us as players and to anyone who cares to look, but come on, man! At least try to pretend!
Personally i would like to have a high level arc with them in which they are trying to obtain an item which would put them back on top as the main bad guys and not third [or possibly lower? Coming Storm >Praetorians > Arachnos?] in line?
Edit:
I've always enjoyed fighting Arachnos, they have an interesting mix of enemies within their ranks which makes them a decent challenge for most of my characters and is one of the few enemy groups in which you can actually see their power growing [for their npcs] as you level up in the game. By this i mean your fighting from wolf spiders > Bane > Huntsmen > Mu > Toxics > Those other ones i for some reason cant remember the name! -
Quote:To lure in Statesman in which Manticore will once again rush in to try and save him and be the one who dies, letting himself die in order for statesman to live since he didnt want another death on his shoulders.
Also, Darrin Wade expressly took Alexis Cole's blood. That's gotta mean something abouty his target right there -
Quote:I don't know if this still counts as a spoiler, but here's a SPOILER WARNING!!! just in case.
I think that if Hero One ended up getting a TF, it would make more sense to have it be its own TF and likely Incarnate content. If you've done the Ramiel arc, then it makes sense to have Hero One as a contact afterwards. I don't think it makes as much sense for him to just take over Statesman's if/when States bites it.
Agreed. If any tf contact dies then i'ld much rather a revamped TF than a simple "X character continues it". -
Quote:Aside from any story reason, killing BAB would attract far too much publicity to the game of the wrong kind.
One of the few ethnic signature characters being killed off would encourage many negative vibes.
When i look at any of the characters ingame, i have honestly never looked at their ethnic origin but rather themselves as a character. It never even crossed my mind that, but i hope reasons like that will keep him safe, I hope its based purely on a characters story rather than "who will cause the least agro". -
All of my characters love the idea of fighting a large military like organisation, just like the Council or Arachnos.
Really though when you think about it, blueside theres barely any legit storyarcs that are based on them being our main rivals.
- They show up in Faultline for a brief part.
- Every pvp zone but no storyarcs there.
- Mender Silos arc via ouroboros.
- Cimerora.
None of which focus solely on Arachnos being a top evil organisation.

I paid 500 points for a dog and now theres a snowman for 160!?!? RAAGGGEEEEE!!!!!
Just kidding -
Surely this means we level too fast these days
[gratz though!]

BaB is one of the few surviving 8 who turns up the most in story arcs/tfs isnt he? Personally i would have thought it'ld be harder to get him out of the game than majority of the others
Oh and . . . . NOW i remember who Ultimus was all those months ago lol, threads like these ^_^ -
Quote:Many times i've felt that if the older powersets like Archery/Storm//Energy blast would be so much more better [visually also] if they were designed now instead of all those years ago.
Powers: Given the option to do what I most want in a superhero game (interaction with the environment), I would sacrifice my powersets as designed to accomodate the new. I love the way new powersets are designed and look, and they have a dynamic feeling a lot of the old ones do not. I'm by no means advocating a 'action mmo' style with a gamepad here; what I would advocate is a feeling of interaction.
I personally would love it if they did a Energy Blast v2 as an alternative powerset without removing the original one. -
I have a DB/DA scrapper at 23 and well . . . . endurance heavy or what . . . . bring lots of blues until you get high enough to slot properly!

SPOILER BELOW!
Example of spoiler thats been in the game for years and not many people know.
Romulus wasnt the first person from Cimerora to be turned into a nictus, his personal guard Dorjan was!
^^^^ Thats the kind of lore/info that people would find interesting when they come across it, so personally i do think also that spoilers of all kind, regardless of age, should be left out of titles. Bad form! -

Quote:Yeah, I'm sure people will love having a more non-lethal looking weapon option.
It's about time. I just hope they come up with a variety of staff weapon skins for it at launch. I really want to go with a pure energy staff, and not some energy staff with a tech handle in the middle.
Darth Maul characters everywhere! -
Saying you got to 50 in 24 hours and knew next to nothing about the game isnt a good start
Its not about whats been added since you left, you still got to learn the game before you do anything.

Quote:As the title suggest's, did TW get activated before time on some accounts?
I have seen various people already running around with 50's, now I know in this day an age with the various PL or farming tools within game that this is not a big achievement anymore, but I happened to look up a players info and was surprised to see that they had achieved over 900 badges, in 24 hours that would have to been nigh impossible I would have thought, so my only conclusion was they had it before.
If the person your talking about begins with letter S . . . then yes he did get it during the small window . . . . and yes he got all those badges, the dude is unreal at collecting badges! -
Since yesterdays update every now and then [doesnt seem to be any common grounds as to why/when] i get a flash across the whole screen.
Flash only lasts half a second but is enough where it does start to hurt your eyes after a while. -

Yeah i'ld presume you unlock that slot for that server you picked and not the character.
