Same here. If anything, in all the runs I've done, people were usually calling "No flying!" during that phase of the Trial. Gave me flashbacks to Keyes runs.

As for why Destructive isn't being awarded, no idea. Are you 100% sure that you didn't already have the badge? -
Congrats, Voodoo!

Quote:Another vote for doing the Faultline content here too -- and you don't HAVE to walk through the gate from Skyway, you can actually go through a manhole cover in Pocket D's entrance hallway area and pop out in Faultline.Originally Posted by ClawsandEffect
The Faultline arcs are fun too, you can start those at level 15. Unless I'm mistaken, Jim Tremblor is one of the contacts you can teleport to. If you can't, Faultline is to the South of Skyway City (the train doesn't go there, you have to walk through the gate)

Quote:It's Dream Doctor, actually.Originally Posted by EmperorSteele
Well, we find out in the DA arcs that the letter writer is the Midnight Doctor... but you can't access the DA arcs until you've unlocked the incarnate system, right? So how is this possible? Or is it theoretically possible to do the DA arcs and THEN do Ramiel's mission?
The wiki says Captain Nolan (the blue-side introducer of the DA arcs) is given as a contact at "the appropriate level", but I am pretty sure I was working on a new Incarnate alt the other day, and he didn't pop up as a contact for that character until I completed the Ramiel arc, so I'm not sure the wiki entry is completely accurate. I'll try to remember to take another alt through Ramiel's arc and see if I'm remembering correctly. -

You should read the other thread for additional details, but this is in part to "prove" that you don't NEED to be twinked by someone else in order to build up a great toon (money/ability/whatever-wise) basically from scratch.Originally Posted by Sentry4
What's stopping you from asking outloud for some start up cash? The marketing would go much faster and with much less effort if you started with even a small 5 million.
Believe me, she has PLENTY of cash on her alts to have any amount of initial startup cash she wants if that was desired.

Quote:Unless something's changed since the Market launched (and if it has, I'm sure someone will correct me), you are unable to buy anything more than once. The interface unfortunately doesn't just TELL you that, but if you try purchasing something you already own, you will get an error message and not be allowed to complete your purchase.Originally Posted by Akia
Thanks for that, seems like to much work. The market has flaws for sure. Hopefully they will put already owned on items that we own. For me personally it is a deterrent to buying much else costume wise.
And again, if that's changed since launch, I haven't seen it referenced anywhere. -
Yes, as Rajani and gameboy stated, bonus points DO most certainly count toward the calculation used for awarding Reward Tokens.

Quote:Depending on how much the OF set pieces end up going for, I doubt this will occur. Right now, many of the Defender ATO pieces are some of the cheapest on the Auction House, so there doesn't seem to be as much demand for pieces of that set as there are for Brute, Scrapper and a few other AT's sets. (Although I just checked, and recently a couple of the pieces have spiked up, so maybe not; time will tell.)Originally Posted by Sir Mason Stone
Since you can't buy OF enhancements at Wentworth's yet, I don't think selling the Defender's Bastion enhancement I've got would be a good idea right now. I might still be able to trade it somehow for an OF enhancement.
You might consider trying your luck with Enhancement Converters, which you can either purchase from a Merit Vendor (as well as a few other esoteric vendors), or receive as random drops (you may even have some already in your inventory -- check the "Special" tab of your Salvage inventory). Review the wiki link for more information, and best of luck!

Quote:This is nothing new -- Scrappy's always done that, and he has always especially loved running over and getting himself droned.Originally Posted by Alpha_XBS
Happened again last night.
Logged in to Sharkhead to find 3 other players engaging the Ghost of Scrapyard. I figured I'd jump in and help.
He started running all over the place, jumping from the docks onto ships.
I was on my Dual Pistols/Time Corruptor, and kept wasting Distortion Field because after the cast time was over, he was already too far away for it to have any effect on him. -

This one doesn't really need a specific method. On Infinity, we DO pull the mobs and we start with Shadowhunter. I would think any AV sequence would work fine.

Quote:We also were able to successfully use this exact tactic on Victory any number of times.Originally Posted by Arcanaville
When we were first attempting this on Triumph, I suggested (after a few failures) to the league leader that we just park everyone in the hospital and I and a few other players good at Oblit dodging would take out AM. We got it on the second or third try with five players.
I can't imagine the devs thought that anyone would use that tactic. I was a bit worried that players would not want to go along with that, but everyone gets the badge whether they are actually at risk of being targeted by Oblit or not, and it seemed most people would rather get it quickly in one go than be the one to accidentally fail it and have to go again. -

Quote:This, exactly. When I've bothered to set the mission, it's worked flawlessly hundreds of times.Originally Posted by StarGeek
It has always worked for me, except for the aforementioned Ouro interference. You do have to make sure you *set* your mission, so it shows up in red, not yellow, though.

Quote:Also note (as I think has been mentioned above) that you do not have to actually PERFORM each of these roles to get the applicable "Perfect..." badge -- in fact, if all 4 teammates perform each role appropriately, everyone is awarded all 4 badges, so it's relatively easy to get all 10 event badges in a single run.Originally Posted by monkeyslap
There are 4 badges, 1 for each role in the heist. Perfect grifter, hitter, thief, and hacker. Once you have all 4 of these badges you get an accolade called Roleplayer. When you get the accolade you are granted 5 reward merits.

Quote:One note about doing it this way -- in a crowded area, I don't recommend this method. Instead, select the person you want to give the item to, then right-click to select the item you wish to trade and choose "Give to XXXXXX". Doing it that way will make sure that it only goes to the desired toon.Originally Posted by Rajani Isa
you can also drag and drop trade items over someone to gift them (assuming they have room, otherwise it fails and you keep the goods)

Quote:Part of what you're missing is that both are part of the overall event -- you cannot do just one or the other (so that answers most of your questions). You do whichever one first that is presented to you upon entering the "theater" area (one or the other, randomly).Originally Posted by Sir Mason Stone
Greetings!
I hope everyone is having a fine weekend. I'm interested in trying to get the Overwhelming Force Set through the Summer Blockbuster Event, and have some questions. Unfortunately, the PW page on this is still somewhat undeveloped.
Some questions:
- Obviously, you need a team for the casino heist. Do you need one for the gladiator portion?
- Do you have to run them in a specific order? Both consecutively? Or can you run one (e.g.: the heist) at one time and come back later and run the other (e.g.: the gladiator part)?
- How do the rewards work? Do you have to run one event to get an Overwhelming Force enhancement? Both? To get them all do you have to run the whole event over and over/trade with others?
- About how long does it take to finish the Summer Event once you start?
Thank you for your help.
In my experience, the entire event (both "pieces") runs about 30-45 minutes, depending on the team. -

Get off your high horse, the proc is broken and is NOT currently having an effect on powers with "ticks" such as Guarded Spin.

And finally done (again) at 1,396 with Ready to Rumble and Master of Magi!

Quote:That's not how I read his post -- he says up front that it converted "KB to KD just fine", which tells me he DID see some KD from the power he had it in.Originally Posted by MisterD
I am assuming he knows that Eric...regardless, even if he didnt, saying he saw NO kd, in that many missions...it is quite obvious that he didnt see one from the power he had it in.
He said this:
That sounds to me like he clearly does NOT understand how it works. Unless I'm completely missing the boat here, my understanding of this set is that it affects KB/KD only on the power it's slotted in.Quote:Originally Posted by Xyzor
...but it is not adding KD to other powers (which it is supposed to do).
He's clearly looking for KD being added to other powers, which this set does NOT do...right? -
Quote:Sounds like you could really benefit from having a build for soloing and another build for teaming...Originally Posted by BLYKMYK
Thanks. That kind of makes the enhancenment a little less sweet. While the majority of the time on teams I don't want my Explosive Arrow creating KB...when I solo it can be helpful against bosses.
