Okay I am willing to test and be certified to wear the Helper tag but only if I get the ice cream, chocolate syrup and the sprinkles..
PLUS I want a specially designed costume made available to all Helpers and a 6th costume slot so they don;t lose any of their other slots to maintain and wear their "100% Officially City Of X Helper Uniform".
I want 6 months of free access to the game.
I want the ability to open and slot all of the additional Incarnate powers NOW and when everyone else has them I want 3 more that only us helpers get so we is even MORE powerful..
After all we are the elite and all knowing HELPER SQUAD!
LOL .. okay I'm willing to negotiate. I'll settle for the ice cream, syrup and sprinkles.

Oh hey there GK, definatly some good stuff. Enough to drive a veteran altaholic insane. Can always use some folks out there enjoying it. Stick around word is it is only gonna get better
Imagine if they actually ADVERTIZED For this game and kicked in their affiliate program again... lol!!! -
... That there be a short "Quiz" before a player can choose "helper" as thier title. Make it so! Allowing some of these folks to have that title is just... um... yeah.

Wasn't bad, The new Legue options and new UI made for an "Off Balance" night, but overall everyone learned a lot. Only tried it once, but definatly forming up for some more. I think CoH did ok with this update.

Quote:In good time, we try to do several PvP "Raids" (And i use that term loosley because we are not a PvP oriented SG.) per year. Sirens Call will be our next target, many new members dont have 50s yet and we want to help give them time to mature and udnerstand the mechanics first before putting them out there for experienced players to pick off. Might be weeks, might be days... stay tuned! I just try to make sure the folks in our SG get to experience these places. I have always enjoyed Bloody Bay because of the tenacity one must have to fend folks off with minimal powers. Also, many in our SG that were new had never ever experienced PvP. This was a way to get them out there and give you guys someone to play with. Hate seeing Bloody Bay so underused, so we lit it up for a night. Many thanks to those who came out to play with us!Originally Posted by TehCoop
So.... when are you coming to Recluse's Victory?

To whom this may concern,
I want to extend a salute to the brave souls that came out and made target practice of themselves in Bloody Bay! Our members loved it, you were some good sports. Good times!

Leadership...
Any organiztion requires it. When a person, or organization loses their way one must be chosen. PKs administrator would have to be willing to grow, listen and understand their rosters desires to function at the capacity it did. In the short time I have been on virtue my dealings with BDD have been enjoyable. His charisma portrays Inherant leadership.
What some here don't realize is that none of their current leadership apparently desire to carry that torch. Wish them well and move on. They did their job for king and country. As for the "legacy" some speak of... that means little if you are unwilling to take up that mantle.
if any current leaders of PK desire to take up that mantle it appears there is backing for that cause. Let me know if I can help organize such an undertaking. -
Thought it would be nice for everyone to throw themselves a little pat on the back and celebrate their new toons here... so what did you accomplish?
New Dark/Dark tanker @50 here... yay! -

I like the double exp stuff, and It helps when we get more than a few days notice like last time..lol. But like the others here, I am not encouraged about the launcher news. Please let your boss know that such action being forced on the community would do harm to the community relations you work so hard to build here.
Also, lets keep the monthly thing... monthly.
A few suggestions I hear daily from guildmates are that once something new comes out, the old content gets forgotten, but was recently rectified by helping upgrade the positron tf. We would like it very much if SC, and some of the other zones got a new facelift.
As for PvP concerns, they will never stop complaining about pvp, and you will never make them happy, so let them rot! (mwuhahaha)
GL on your new position, don't screw it up! -
Quote:So you want ppl who don't have the badge (Meaning they probably aren't capable of running an MoSTF in most cases) to pay you an entry fee to run a TF? Why isn't it free? C'mon, they only way to really incite competition is to front the cash yourself. Making them pay seems disrespectful. The real STF'rs don't push for money, they push for times. It's a personal thing.Originally Posted by Acanous_Quietus
Greetings, Heroes!
Friday, Jan 21st at 5 PM Pacific/8PM Eastern, Acanous is hosting a Master of Statesman's Task Force race!
Grand Prize of one fully crafted set of Gladiator's Armor
Entry fee is 10,000,000 Influance/Infamy, per entrant.
Team Leaders are required to be Heroes, who do not posess the "Master of Statesman's Task Force" badge at the beginning of the race. Your badge will be your proof of completion.
This competition is otherwise open to any archetype, so long as you meet level requirement and have access to Hero zones.
How it works:
If you wish to compete, you can preregister by posting here, in-game Mailing @Acanous with your choice of entrant, or by showing up with 10 million inf on Jan 21st.
Anyone who did not pre-register is advised to show up early to ensure you get a spot. Judges will be available for registration from 4PM Pacific until 5pm, when teams are selected.
If you are a Team Leader, you will be invited to team by one of the judges. All leaders will roll off for order of teammate selection, with ties being decided by coin flip. Team selection then proceeds one at a time, until all teams are filled.
If you are an entrant, please stand under the globe in Atlas Park as though you were in a Costume Contest so team leaders can easilly survey your archetypes and powers.
Entrants that are not under the globe in Atlas Park when they are called to a team will be disqualified.
Judges will lead extra teams as required until all entrants have a team.
Once all teams have been recorded, team leaders will be free to leave the judge's team and form with their selected players. Once each team leader signals they are ready in local, Acanous will broadcast the "Go".
Teams will make their way to Independance port, and begin a Master of Statesman's Task Force run . This means No Temporary Powers and Team is allowed Zero defeats for the uninitiated.
the first team leader to return to Acanous displaying the "Master of Statesman's Task Force" badge will be declaired the winner.
The Winner will be announced in the "Virtue TFs 2010" channel.
The 2nd and 3rd place winners will also be eligable for prizes as follows:
1st place: Gladiator's Armor set and 1/2 of all influence put into the purse
2nd place: 8 Luck of the gambler: +7.5% Recharge speed IOs, and 1/4th of all influence put into the purse.
3rd place: 1/4th of all influence put into the purse.
All team mebers must be present at the time of awarding. In case of any disputes, the Invention Enhancements will be put up on the auction house, and influence gained will be divided equally.
Judges will be announced here, in Virtue TFs 2010, and in Broadcast in Atlas Park on the day of the race.
Good luck!
As for not being able to bring your own team? Are you TRYING to see them fail? The most successful STF's & fastest STF's happen when you play with those you trust, not PuG's.
Have a nice day. Hope this goes well for you, but I suggest dropping the entry fees, its uncool. Front the money, be a man! -
Quote:Lol... you will "let" ncsoft handle it. As if they need your approval. Its their money... if they want to burn themselves out they do us all a favor. We get the cash, and they leave the game. Problem solved everyone benifits.Originally Posted by Gunpowder Witch
Nope. I will let NCSoft play police. I might shake my head when I meet people that play rather unthinking but I don't assume they were power leveled. I am not a great player myself.
I do hate constant spam though. A couple months ago I was on another sever. This server, called Not-Virtue, had these messages fairly non-stop at the time. My level two heard about 20,000,000 such announcements (just a guess but it was likely more than that
) before getting a sewer group and an equal number while training in Atlas. It was like what we all heard during the monkey craze. Only I guess there is no exploit to squash that will put it to rest on Not-Virtue.
I have heard the same thing just a couple of time recently here on Virtue. I was wondering if people think about that sort of thing or care. It is hard to gauge what is considered simple courtesy on public channels or what expect from other people. So I asked.
Who here filters out Broadcast besides all_hell, Scooby Dont and bpphantom? Is that the answer?

I just started looking for an avatar. I keep changing it. Which one did you see? Right now it is Elfen Lied. I think I am going to change it again. Not a great show in my opinion and the avatar isn't what I want. I heard the manga is better but have not read it. The one with two girls hefting guns is Full Metal Panic fan art or at least it is not from the anime that I remember. I really liked FMP back in the day. I don't know if it has aged well. I had Red Monika up for a very short time. Large tracks of land, red hair. She is from the old comic Battle Chasers. -
Quote:This IS your problem. Stop LOOKING for teams and earn to be systematic in FORMING teamsOriginally Posted by Angelofvalor
What is this server wide channel for looking for team you guys are talking about there is only the looking for task force server channel and the virtue server channel the others are not lft from what I have seen and hardly any of them have any kind of lft spam.
Good habits start with dicipline. Discipline yourself into being the team leader you are desperatly looking for. Imagine the players that would welcome your LEADERSHIP! -
Quote:Leaving the game isn't the solution unless you honestly dislike the toons or the mechanics that drive the toons you play. Even on a low yield server making teams isn't hard. You just need to spend more time trying instead of posting self defeating post we have to read. Make it happen, no one is going to do it for you!Originally Posted by Angelofvalor
I am just not getting invites like I use to when I played a few years back, I am hardly getting any at all and I am level 34 ill/rad controller I do not mind making teams but believe me I have tried what is going on? Virtue is almost always in the red.
-
Here are a few more things our folks have thrown into the pot. None checked for accuracy, but if there is a problem let me know, we can update it.
Q: Can you Access Incarnate Slots if you don't have going rogue installed?
A: No, According to the patch notes you Must have going rogue installed.
Q: Can I do the new TF's if I don't have Going Rogue?
A: Per the patch notes, Not yet. You will need Going Rogue.
Q: Why can't I access my inherant Health and Stamina since the update?
A: You have to do a respec before being able to access the "Inherant" powers now available.
Q: How come Mender Ramiel won't talk to me?
A: If you haven't done the Cimmororan arch that leads up to "Talk to Imperious" Mender Ramiel won't talk to you. Please do the Midnighters arch up to "Talk to Imperious"
Q: Is the only way to open my Incarnate slot by running Task Forces?
50+
A: No, besides having to run the Ramiel arc, you can get random minor component drops from defeats in any mission even streep sweeping. In addition Vanguard merits can be traded in to get components as well.
Q: What level bad guys drop the components?
A: Any baddy that is level 50+ can drop a component. Note: These are not like purple drops. You will not get a component if the baddy has a chance to drop level 50 drops (ie lvl47-49). The enemy HAS to be 50 or higher.
Q: What is the drop rate?
A: Exact rate is unknown, in my experience it seems to be a bit higher than a rare salvage drop, but from what others have said a bit lower. Random drop is Random.
Q: Am I locked into a slot once I crate my alpha boost enhancer?
A: No, these are not like IO's and shouldn't be thought of as similar. You can crate and have the boosts for all 4 trees and change them accordingly.
Q: Does my Alpha boost give me global bonuses?
A: No, again, these are not like IO's. If you have an alpha boost that grants 33% recharge bonus, that is not a global 33% boost. That means that any power that can accept recharge gets an extra 33% boost to that power. In addition this boost does not work if you exempt below level 45. Powers that do not accept a specific IO but still benefit from that stat if slotted with HO's and IO's (ie accuracy in Choking Cloud or recharge in Mind Link) will NOT receive a benefit from the alpha slot of that stat.
Q: What level do I have to be to complete this Incarnate arc with Meander Ramiel?
A: you need to be a level 50 and should have an Ouroborus Portal and have completed the Midnighter's Arc (contact found inside the university at Steel Canyon in the library).
Q: If multiple players are running a team in the Ramiel/Incarnate arc can they auto complete their missions?
A: You can enable the auto complete option (found under the drop down menu at the top under options, then under team options it's under collaborate missions). The talk to parts of the story arc must be done by each player to get the credit, but the actual missions can be collaborated. Several players were with us that did not use the enable option for collaboration and they failed to complete their missions with us DUE TO NO PROMPT to complete the mission. We think this may be a bug, so make sure you manually choose to enable this option to collaborate the missions.)
Q: Can any level player join a team doing this arc?
A: You must be at least lvl 25 and have an "O" portal, because the missions begin in Ouroborus.(Recommendations: We had a team set at 0 x 0 for difficulty and all 8 of us took the missions and completed them in a timely manner. Most of us were picking toons that were STF capable (also ITF for those that like to run that task force) so if we do run a STF the toons will have this availability open already and will be able to use the salvage to make the alpha/incarnate abilities. -
Quote:Had a few folks come into the last nite. Interesting, thanks for the post.Originally Posted by AnElfCalledMack
That'd be because the Ramiel arc requires visiting Cimerora (minor spoiler, but whatever). If you haven't done that arc, you can't finish Ramiel's, so he won't give it to you unless the arc is finished. It's the closest thing the game has to a "able to access Cimerora" flag, but if you get up to the "speak to Imperious" mission and don't talk to him, you can access Cim but haven't finished the arc.

Quote:Very True, any theories?Originally Posted by Kyasubaru
This can't be the problem. To become a vigilante in the first place requires you to be able to change your alignment, which requires GR.
You also don't need to "install" GR since anyone who has an up-to-date COH installation already has all the necessary files. -
Quote:Yes, you can level toons from preatoria to level 20, then you can simply put them into your SG/VG. Before issue 19 you would lose the prestige from these toons when they quit or got deleted, but now your SG retains the prestige after such actions are taken. Hope this helps.Originally Posted by Nethergoat
Will I19 still let me burn billions of inf to supercharge my SGs prestige?
-
Quote:Per the patch notes, I am under the assumption that the persons stating that problem may not have GR installed and on thier account. It specifically states that unless GR is attached to a persons account they won't be able to access the incarnate abilties or the new TFs that are required to attain them. If I am wrong let me know. I would suggest telling those folks they need GR.Originally Posted by DumpleBerry
Good idea, Ever. Currently I have seen two posts regarding Vigilantes who cannot start Remiel's Incarnate arc. So, FYI and all that.

Dear forumites,
Since the inception of Issue 19, I thought it would be nice for us to have a little community based info section on Issue 19. Please post questions you have or hear others asking and the answers to questions you can answer so everyone can easily transition through this new issue smoothly. Kthxbai! -
