Its more than a couple bars lol. If it were two bars I wouldn't sweat it, Its two whole levels minus one bar

Nope, at least not yet.

We will see if nemesis has a plan for it.

I completely understand where you are comging from. In WoW, I had a Hunter pre-wotlk that sat at 68 for nearly a year before I had the motivation to finish those last couple of levels. During that time I took a Druid to 70 LOL. How funny is that.

I do so want to unlock that VEAT, I just have the 'so close yet so far away' syndrome currently. I even have a bio and color scheme made up for him just waiting to unlock.

I know this. I'm one of them that have never gotten sucked into the system either.

There is a rampant influx of those that have. In the player question system there is a post by a 50 who didn't know that the slots they kept adding to their powers were meant to hold enhancements... thats just one of many examples.

Please refrain from posting replies to any thread I start or subsequent postings. Whether you have something good to say or not. You have said enough in the past that no longer warrants me to care what you have to say further.

I prefer the redside contact mission system. It is more fluid and linear. The hero side has you running all over the place without much continuity.

Some people say Brute is the best to start soloing. I say mastermind, but using the MM pet system can be daunting. I was able to figure it out on my own, the tank method for MMs totally eluded me though, it took someone on the forums to explain that subsequently before I even realized it was there.

Its all relative to perspective, you have a perspective, he has a perspective, everyone does. You see it as contradictory, I don't. Everyone is entitled to see things differently.

Really? Then why did you jump down my throat? I never said anything against the normal farmer crowd. Unless you normal farmers are sending e-mails trying to sell it for real money. And RMTs were at hand when I had thought that the sale was done because of the RMT providing the funds.

People just do that on the internet in general. This forum is no better than any other for the type of behavior, even though people would like you to think so. There are worse but there are still people who act that way and always will.

Not really. He said excluding the current flaw let people play how they want, which supports the first paragraph in saying that there is no set path to play and people have the right to choose their path.

MMs are so fun though, I can see why you rolled one. Thats who I'm talking about, is my FF/Bot MM.

As soon as I hit 47 I had him decked out in his 50 SO's.

I got my first purple IO at 48 so I'm hoping I'll be able to get a full set of purple IOs and just pay for the mats if i can't farm them.

Reading the wiki though. I've learned that some IO can only be had through the TFs. So that may be something I'll have to do to complete any set.

And while it's not *quite* as bad now, as I recall, when EQ first started, it was 50 bucks and you were nekkid. Double that and you weren't.

However there is a catchall. If you pay for the more expensive item transfer and they botch it and you end up naked, then you just paid a premium for what you could have payed for a standard. Anything that happens they will not reimburse or try to rollback.

I talked to someone a few days ago. It seems to be common the closer one gets to 50 the greater the desire to put the toon down and rest for a bit.

One Digit into 48 and I just hit that. I sooooo want to unlock the VEAT for my next Main but I am having so much difficulty finding the motivation to trudge through the last two levels, even though its pretty much easy street having all the contacts unlocked. Its happened in other games too, I don't know why I didn't expect it to happen. I was perfectly fine two days ago getting to 48, in fact I was stoked to finally be this close.

Anyone else suffer the phenomenon?

Speaking of AE Babies

I'm sure most of you have already seen it.

Beyond that, I'm going to echo the call of "do the tutorial". Tutorials don't exist to be skipped over, you know.

[/ QUOTE ]

Truth cannot be avoided. I do the tutorial on every toon I make.

If you need help reinviting and decide that is the way to go, pm me. I'll be glad to hop in the game and do what you need.

You have to go to a level 50+ area. Peregrine Isle, Rikti Warzone etc all sell 35-50 enhancements at the proper store.

As others have said. You should make a new toon and figure out how to play the actual game and learn the basics then go back to your lvl 50 once you know some things about the game.

Stay out of AE until you know what you are doing.

Scooped by Kitsune but its still the same info ;P

As stated above, there are stores on the map. They sell the generic enhancements when you first start. Later you get enhancements that are dual origin, that means a mutant and a technology might be able to use the same power if it says so. Later you get single origin enhancements, the stores for these will be labeled Mutant Store, Technology Store, Magic Store etc.

Also, when you get enhancements as drops from defeats and missions, selling those to the correct store, Magic enhancements sold to a magic store for example, give you more money. Wentworths is an option, it isn't a necessity.

You can access your enhancements on the main skill bar by clicking enhancements. That will show how many you have and you can sell those at the store apporpriate for the type.

Does something need to be done about allowing someone to gain six levels in one AE mission? Yes. Only because it is an obvious flaw in the current system. Past that, let people play how they want to play.

[/ QUOTE ]

I think thats the consensus as evidenced by multiple threads on the very topic.

How does one go about choosing slots and not know they are there for powers to be slotted?

This isn't meant to be rude but by the time you learn about slots, enhancements have already been taught.

Automatically remove the /b and /AE channels from the filters on creation. Let people figure out the chat system before letting people snag them into it through spam.

I'm excited about going rogue so I can put all my toons in one area instead of having to go to a diff side that I really don't like to play in.

However, if the current state persists through GR then it will be overshadowed by that regardless of how good it is.

AE buildings out of Atlas, Galaxy and King's Row, yesterday.

A better solution: make the level of the AE mission dependent on the level of the zone, the same way that radio missions are. That is, if you're in Atlas, you can only play AE missions that are up to level 10. If you're in KR, you can run AE missions up to level 15. In PI and GV you can get any level mission.

That means that newbies have to go to PI or GV to run those auto-SK-to-46 farming missions.

It'll hearken back to the "good old days" of PLing at Portal Corp, and reduce the double whammy of AE and costume contests in Atlas.

I made that suggestion in a diff thread of the same type

Make AE more similar to newspaper missions? After so many get introduced to a new contact outside of AE perhaps?

If not a mission contact unlock then maybe give them an option who to contact to visit a new zone, the same way the AE contact was introduced.

Well. Thats a tough one.

You have people that use it as intended that have to deal with the other stuff that goes on.

You have new trial members who don't realize anything but AE exists.

You have the Vets who just want to use it for whatever they feel like at any given time.

Suggestions for the AE trial debacle seem to be the primary focus of what needs to be fixed. Doing that without impacting or limiting the other activities and still keep it in line with what they want it to achieve is a tall order.

Like you said how it plays out may not be what some people end up wanting. Used as intended I think its a good thing. Used as it is now I feel like its just going to keep corrupting the trial populations.

Well with Aion, they will be ramping up some sort of effort to get subscribers. Once they get into the NC Launcher and see the other games that could be what they are expecting to drum up some influx.
