i believe so. if not all then at least 3 that will introduce you to others.
trust me. i have more then half a servers worth of slots that are villians.

[/ QUOTE ]

At what point though? Is 45 the unlock or is attaining Kindred with the introducer the unlock?

[ QUOTE ]
if you don't get them introduced, you can get them the same wawy that a hero does, well kinda considering that villian's read a paper for missions and heroes listen to a radio. but once you do the mayhem mission and talk to the paper contact he will introduce you to a contact.

[/ QUOTE ]

So all the 45-50 contacts can be unlocked via mayhem as well?

Cuz normally mayhem contacts would be introduced by the broker and be listed as such on Paragonwiki and none of them list the broker as intro.

Ok, I've unlocked all my contacts for 40-44. I stopped xp at 43 to make sure I got them. They say they introduce contacts at 45-50. Do I need to do their arcs and get kindred now before I re enable xp and work on levelling or is unlocking them the only prerequisite to them introducing me at 45?

I just finished Mage Killer Zuhkaras arc and no initial intro to Shadow Spider so I just want to make sure at what point they are unlocked before I outlevel the means to unlock them.

Oh yeah, and which server are you on?

I made a Defender Cold/Ice on Freedom. My name is Zummi!
I'll wait till i15 to make a MM and cross it over to the heroes, besides defenders sound better PvE-wise.

[/ QUOTE ]

MM's are the consummate PVE character. Very versatile and easily soloable. With a set IO build i could probably solo max difficulty. With SOs, I have no problems soloing Challenge 3.

[/ QUOTE ]
You need IOs?

[/ QUOTE ]

Maybe some ppl can, but an AV on Challenge 3 will wipe the floor with me easily, let alone max.

That makes more sense. Thx.

/quit

have fun with the rest of the thread.

No he didn't. I was at the entrance of the mission map. there were 3 sets of mobs directly ahead. Into the third fight it failed.

Nothing was at the mission entrance or it would have failed before I even got back.

[ QUOTE ]
because he ran past you to the door...

[/ QUOTE ]

No, I never got to an area where he was. Either the missions have a hidden timer or something is just wrong with the misison mechanic.

this was a Tsoo tunnel map, there is no door other than the mission entrance.

See, this is why you read the mission text.

[/ QUOTE ]

Then they need to specify Escape == Timed. Theres no timer. They either need to state it or put the timer up there.

[/ QUOTE ]

But it can't be timed. The mission failure depends on whether the target gets to the door, and you can slow down, distract or defeat them.

[/ QUOTE ]

I was in the third fight at the beginning of the mission. How did he make it to the door to escape if it wasn't timed?

And don't forget Teleport Foe is a popular method of removing a Mastermind from the protection of his pets.

Masterminds in PvP are generally slow but strong. They're probably closer to Tankers.

Force bubble would take care of anyone teleporting my MM long enough for my bots to get in range as well as keep him safe for the duration of the teleport timer.

It was Defeat Selestar and Guards

This happened a couple of days ago on another Mission that was do not let so and so Escape. Never got to them and the mission failed without a timer as well.

If there is a hidden timer for the time allowed then they need to say you have X time before he escapes.

[/ QUOTE ]

According to your link, you had to prevent him from escaping. Apparently you took too long to get to him and he got away from you. There isn't a visible timer for any of the "runner" objectives, either, so you've gotta hustle and find 'em quickly.

[/ QUOTE ]

Then they should just make them timed missions IMO. Well I know in the future Escape == timed.

I just took a mission to assassinate a hero. I went afk to get some food and do the mission while eating.

After about the third mob fight the mission kicks me out with a fail.

There was no mission timer and no reason why it should have.

Since no one else has mentioned it...

The OP mentioned he was getting the trial DL. Since it is a Trial version your limited to:

<ul type="square">[*]Level 14 max (Teir 1, 2, &amp; 3 Travel Powers can be gotten by that point)[*]You can not start a team, but you can invited into one[*]50K max Infulence/Infimay cap[*]You can chat on local, help (/hc), and team only[*]You can not join a SG[*]You can not access the Architect system, but you can be invited into a team running Architect missions[*]You can not use the in-game e-mail system[/list]
Referenced from the Paragonwiki page about it.

Thank you for the time...

He knew more I think than they usual AE baby, but was still had been only playing a week. Got his first 50 in that time. I thought about global friending him, but I didn't want him to think I was a creep or something

[/ QUOTE ]

Kudos to you for helping, but anyone who has been playing for a week and has a VEAT will get no help from me.

If people don't do the dirty work themselves, they don't have a right to the spoils IMO. Let him suffer through the learning process, he should have done it the first time around.

There is end game content. You have task forces all across the level spectrums. the primary end game content are the high lvl Imperius taskforces etc. At 50 you also get to unlock the Epic ATs, Kheld or Spider.

There are special zones that open up at 35 that are also geared towards 50 as you lvl. those are the coop zones. There are rare drops that only drop post 50 as well. So that allows further customization of lvl 50 toons. Like i said the game is about achievement and character development not so much lvl 50 content.

1. the only crossover at the moment is after llvl 35 in coop zones. The rogue expansion coming up will allow this however.

2. They just changed PVP. PvP isn't an end game thing. PVP zones are level based, there are pvp zones across all the ranges of the spectrum.. If anyone is lvl 50 and goes to a lvl 15 pvp zone they go down to the max lvl for that zone.

3. there is a secondary spec you can choose. If you find a spec thats good for one scanario that may not be good for another you can swap to your secondary spec. I believe secondary spec opens at lvl 10.

Just forewarning... this game isn't Max Lvl oriented. Getting to lvl 50 isn't the end goal. This game is primarily about achievment and advancement. If you spend a day getting to lvl 50 by some power level mechanic, you will get bored very quickly of the game.

Rikti Warzone, start unlocking your Vanguard Costume I've been going between Rikti War Zone and grandville (Villains).

for heroes I think the Grandville Equivalent is Peregrine Isle.

Maybe its diff for links, but usually powers say:

As used by Level ## AT

I think i remember you posting that in another thread a few weeks ago too.

its my 43 with 125 badges.

There currently is no real fix to the issue. I've been advised not to use rewards and to maintain the character legitimately. People affected will either be notified or there will be an announcement to how it will be handled.

I don't want to but I'm tempted to delete him so I don't have these vet rewards hanging on me.

Yeah I'm not claiming anything, I just want it fixed so ppl don't think i'm some idiot with a 33 month badge that only has one 40+.

[/ QUOTE ]

Gee, thanks.

I'm pushing the 36 month mark and my highest level is 32 (many alts on many servers might have something to do with it too).

[/ QUOTE ]

Its not my opinion, thats just what others would think. Play how you want, level how you want. I just don't want ppl to assume I know more than I do based on Vet badges, perhaps thats how i should have worded it to begin with.
