Quote:That mission most certainly IS offered by Ouroboros (level range 1-15, contact The Radio, listed as "Steal the Outbreak Virus"), and I'm looking at it right now. The only badge I can think of offhand that is not available via Ouroboros red-side is Efficiency Expert.Originally Posted by Blue_Centurion
Okay, So I decided to start a badger in Praetoria, with the thought of using Ouroboros to badge red/blue side.
At work I started my research of what could be badged in Ouroboros looking at Paragon Wiki. It seems like many of the Accomplishment badges like "Plague Carrier" from the Radio contact (Steal Outbreak mission set) are not offered by Ouroboros. Is the Wiki out of date, or is there in fact a bunch of badges that can never be gotten?
Exactly why do you say the wiki is "out of date"? Are you making sure you're looking at www.paragonwiki.com, and not the old no-longer-maintained wikia site? -
Quote:Upon not receiving any badge from the red-side respec (because my badge toon has done and claimed all respecs blue-side) I sent a petition as well, and the response I got was exactly opposite yours, Sadys. I was told that the devs do NOT intend for us to be able to earn all 6 respec badges from both sides.Originally Posted by CaptainMoodswing
I /bugged this and sent in a report. I was told by the GM that the Devs intend for us to be able to earn all 6 respec badges from both sides.
Go figure.

Quote:I did read the announcement closely, and in fact side switching is NOT mentioned.Originally Posted by Chaos Creator
Not quite.
Read the announcement closer. The one thing not included is side switching.
Upon what do you base your conclusion? The fact that it mentions Praetoria is only open until level 14? I don't see one other piece of information in the announcement that even addresses side-switching, even obliquely.
My bad for assuming side-switching via Tips would be enabled, but I don't think you have any more basis for categorically stating like you did that "the one thing not included is side switching". I even scanned the discussion thread for the announcement, and that question remains unanswered there.
While you may be right about it, and I did make the mistake of assuming something, I think you should read the announcement a little closer yourself. -
Don't forget this upcoming weekend is a Reactivation Weekend, and everyone should have access to GR, so you'll be able to switch sides then if nothing else.

Quote:Keep in mind that the Rikti you encounter during invasion events no longer have a level attached -- they use conning rules similar to the Giant Monster rules (i.e., they con differently for each individual specifically tailored to that toon).Originally Posted by Tommy_Atomic
--Watchman (Lots of Ritki invasion kills. This seems unlikely to accomplish any time soon, but it gives an excuse to head for any low-level Ritki invasions.)
Welcome back to the game, T_A!

Should you feel the desire to play on Victory, which you should (wink, wink!), you can check out our channel lists in the welcome thread that is stickied at the top of our page. Champion is good too, though. I guess.
Victoryites tend to be sarcastic and self-deprecating... and deprecating of others, but it's in good fun. Know the power of Victory!

Quote:Exactly this has been my experience years ago as well as recently as this week.Originally Posted by Evilmeister
In my experience, they've never merged unless they originated from the exact same spawn. On the tip mission with way too many Malta ambushes there were Hercules joining up as late as yesterday - but only from within the same waves. If say, there was a Gunslinger and a Hercules Titan in one wave and the same in another, bringing down the two Titans to merge-levels simultaneously wouldn't make them combine. When a wave held two Hercules, however, they did combine.

And don't let it worry you -- the timed missions in question really aren't that difficult, and most ATs/builds should have plenty of time to complete them.

In honor of the Crazy 88s:

(I didn't see anyone else guess that number; if I missed it, then +1 to that.)

Quote:That's correct -- as I believe was mentioned above, those accolades are only earnable by "pure" alignments (i.e., Hero or Villain).Originally Posted by Saber_Spectre
as a rogue got all the badges for Geas of the Kind ones... didn't award till i switched fully hero

Quote:I should clarify my comment -- the progress bars don't show for tourists, but as you mention, the badges obviously will pop. Why they're not on the list you cited, I can't say, sorry, I just know it's so from experience (and I believe you echo that in your comment).Originally Posted by Placta
They're not on Black Scorpion's list, and I have Pedestrian (Impounder, 100 cars) and Thin Line (Outlaw, 1000 PPD) on my Vigilante. However, I didn't have progress bars for them (which made Thin Line quite a surprise), nor do I have progress bars toward the other four mayhem badges.

Quote:No, not at present.Originally Posted by OneWhoBinds
I just wish the view would default to Most Recent again, rather than Closest to Completion.
Is there any way to change that? -
Quote:Yup, I can update everything on my badge toon except the duplicate-named badge still out there.Originally Posted by Kheldarn
AFAIK, with the exception of the name dupes and Praetorian badges, Badge-Hunter is now up to date.

Chance to hold, however, is spectacular. I LOVE that proc. In an unhealthy stalkerish kind of love. It has a restraining order out against me actually. I probably shouldn't even be talking about it in public. Please don't tell my parole officer. =)

Quote:There's no question that that's the badge -- there are only 3 SG "Defeats" badges altogether (check the wiki if you're still not convinced), and your screenshot shows 2 + the third in progress.Originally Posted by Nitra
Well, that would be the case but there is one problem... I have a small sg and I know for a fact that NO one is the sg including the toon that has defeated landru, which is Nitra (who was not in my sg when she got it) Has done this tf
The only way to really prove either way, would be for me to do a petition or for me to do the Landu tf and see if the bar moves -
Pretty sure that's just the "Rikti Plasma Turret" badge, awarded for 5 defeats of Lanaru the Mad in SG mode.
Not a new SG badge by any means. -
Same here, un-fogged all blue-side zones and after a few red-side, [Reveal] simply resets the FoW to the original configuration.
The OCD in me hopes very much for a solution to this bug sooner rather than later.

Quote:Correct, they are villain-only (including progress bars).Originally Posted by Bohmfalk
That is correct. I believe that you won't be awarded the badges until you transfer over fully, though don't quote me on that.
-
You will still need to get the side mission for arsons, since that's not available in Safeguards (obviously).
All the "defeat" badges (defeating signature heroes, vault doors, etc.) except for a couple that have counterparts (such as Impounder/Pedestrian) will also need to be earned by doing Mayhems. -

Thanks for all your hard work, Beef!

Also, make sure you are searching for strings longer than 2 (or is it 3?) characters -- you will get an error message for doing that as well.
