Unai Kemen's "Save Carnies from Paretorians" mission has been rewritten - here' the old version of the text:
Quote:And here's the new version:"We just got a call for help from the strangest of sources: the Carnival of Shadows! Well, actually, the Carnival of Light. It seems that on Praetorian Earth, Vanessa DeVore is actually one of the good guys. She's claiming that Neuron, one of the Praetorian supervillains, has hatched a plan to open up dimensional ruptures all over Paragon City. If they manage it, it'll be a madhouse: strange creatures and crazed villains wandering around every city block. Vanessa's willing to help us, but we have to help her first. You have to save some of her carnies from the Praetorians. It's the only way to get the information we need"
Quote:"Golden Girl, what do you know about the Carnival of Light? They are the Praetorian version of our very own Carnival of Shadows, and they are major players to the Resistance against Marcus Cole in Upsilon Beta 9-6, the Praetorian Earth. Vanguard got a plea from their version of Vanessa DeVore to help out. It seems that many of her 'sisters' have been captured by Clockworks from that world, and she is asking for our help in rescuing the Mistresses that have been kidnapped. I can give you exact coordinates to put you in the building they are being held, and I need you to rescue the kidnapped Carnival of Light members before something horrible happens to them.
The Carnival of Light have shown us they can be trusted in the past, unlike their Carnival of Shadows counterparts." -

I can't beat Trapdoor now (at -1!) and they're making it *harder*? Inspirations helped a lot: they allowed me to remove 1/8 of his HP between chasing down his far too frequent and apparently unending "bifurcations" before the inspirations ran out and I died. I'd like to bifurcate the Midas-eared person who designed that encounter and then the bastitch who decided it couldn't be auto-completed - I have a sharp axe and a dull sword available for the task and right now the latter sounds altogether most suitable.

I've been on a ITF that lasted over 3 hours with 300+ deaths - the team balance made it...challenging

Quote:Trying to put together a timeline for the in-game content is difficult.Originally Posted by Ice_Wall
True, but that doesn't tell us when that arc happens, in relation to when the events of the praetorian arcs take place.
If Praetorian events occur in April, and the Tina arc occurs in September, then there is a gap of time where that Carnival could have been formed, that a character that came from praetoria, wouldn't have seen it, since it would have been formed after they came to Primal Earth.
The new Paretorian content does at least give a very clear marker at level 20, when players escape from Praetoria - so for Praetorian players, I think that any pre-20 Primal Earth content would count as happening during their time in Praetoria, as the only way they can access it once they're in Primal Earth is to travel back in time via Ouroboros.
The newest content timeline wise would have to be the 2 new TFs, as they're focusing on the newest developments in the meta-story - and the new Maria Jenkins arc would come quite soon before them, as it's tied in with the invasion, with Ramiel's Alpha slot arc possibly set between the new MJ arc and the new TFs.
For some of the older content like Faultline, if you go by the levels as the progress of time, then the events there happen before, during and after the escape from Praetoria, with Jimmy and Penny's arcs happening before the escape, and Doc Delilah and Agent G's arcs happening during or just after the escape.
The new Positron TF would take place roughly at the time Praetorian players were active in Imperial City, or werre just starting to check out Neutropolis.
But it's still very hard to actually pin down any firm dates in a content timeline - for example, the RWZ content happens sometime after the events in Praetoria at 1-20, going by levels = progress of time - but in the out-of-game timeline, the 2nd Rikti invasion happens before Primal Earth is aware of the new threat from Praetoria - so the 35-50 RWZ content surely has to happen before the 1-20 Praetorian content. -
Quote:Actually, it makes perfect sense for the revamped Praetoria - there's already the evil uber-psychic and her army of psychics slave drones, so having the good uber-psychic leading a force of liberated Seers and psychics who managed to escape being enslaved would be a nice idea - plus, Mother Mayhem has already tried to capture Vanessa, while Vanessa's daughter has infiltrated the Seer network, so there are some personal connections between the two as well.Originally Posted by Eiko-chan
The Carnival of Light is a stupid idea, and it really should have been dropped as soon as Praetoria became something other than goatee-universe.
And all freedom fighters need some girl power to help them tear down an evil empire - so Vanessa and her Carnival are a perfect fit

My answer is "yes"

Maybe only she can see them?

Nothing - I play them often - but for the past couple of weeks I've been suffering from shard and badge fever - but it's now over, so I'll be back to playing AE arcs again

People who aren't tolerant of newer or inexperienced players aren't really the sort of people you should want to team with anyway.
Bu as for post-I19 TFs, the only instruction I've really seen so far has been "clear the map"
