  2. I don't think anything was removed (at least that I've heard), but they reorganized and a lot of stuff moved. Check in different locations, should still be there somewhere.
  3. Wish I'd seen this before I did the first part of the arc earlier today.

    If nobody has one readily available, you can just head on into Ouro and play it (marked "First Ward part 1"). She appears in the 3rd or 4th mission or so, and there are plenty of chances for a photo op.
  4. Well, all I did was type [Spring Attack] in-game and check the real numbers.

    According to that, the power's range is 60 feet, and the effect area is "Location". I compared that to an AOE that I know has a truly significant area, and the same information in that location did list a radius in feet.

    So that's interesting. Does "Location" indicate basically just AOE in a melee range?

    CoX Freedom

    Free account creation/access is likely to begin on Tuesday, seeing the patch that's been announced.

    I say that only because last I checked Villain side doesn't give you those to Reward Merits, and I have not heard which way is supposed to be correct - or if it is correct as is.
    I've done the "arc" 20+ times now, some red and some blue, and I've gotten those 2 RMs every single time (before the reward table even appears).

    (EDIT: often multiple times (3+) in a row on the same toon, and still get those 2 RMs each and every time.)

    hero merit?

    Fort Trident, in Atlas Park (marked on your in-game mini-map).

    You can start your research of Alignment Merits here.

    Oh, was it monthly they are going to release each of the 7 parts? Guess it's been so long since it was announced I got confused between that and the reward gating. Thanks for straightening me out on that.

    They open weekly -- only the first part is available until next week (Tuesdays is my bet for when they will regularly be released -- the first part went live Tuesday of this week). The contact is in Skyway or Cap (both marked conspicuously on your mini-map in-game). There are various rewards such as an Alignment Merit (Heroes and Villains only, of course), Reward Merits, multiple RMs, an Astral Merit, etc. The arc is level 20, but I *believe* its minimum level is lower than 20.

    I've also found this to be true, with pretty much all the Trials. The focus and coordination you can achieve with a smaller League more than offsets the brute force and firepower attained from a larger one in my experience.

    Good point -- until Tuesday.

    Also, it occurs to me you can simply log onto an alt (or make a new one) and check if he/she has the badge to test whether something is account-wide or not...
  14. Awesome, glad to hear it's going so well, Fulmens!
  15. Dunno if this is what you mean, but there's a Global Channel basically for many who frequent this forum (and some that don't), called TheMarket...

    Signature arcs?

    No, there is not. It's possible there may be badge(s) for completing all 7 (or the final, or however it ends up working) parts, but that remains to be seen.

    This, exactly.

  19. Agge's correct as usual, of course (darn her fast typing! ). Also, note that while they are designed to work on IOs, they do NOT enhance any procs such as the Numina's Convalescence +Regen/+Recovery, Performance Shifter +END, etc. (but they DO enhance benefits some procs provide, such as the +DEF from the Luck of the Gambler +7.5% Recharge IO).

    Listed in the 'known issues' (or at least a related bug is).

    Congrats to everyone getting this out of the way. Victory has had a few successful runs of this -- SO much easier (and more enjoyable!) than most of the Keyes badges.

    I think I read it the same way you did the first time, TJ. Sorry DG.

    To clarify, this is by type, not literal in-game rank -- when soloing with bosses off, I get LTs that do this (because they are the boss "type" even though they downgrade to LTs because I am solo).
