    Just to add to the above posts, the Paragon wiki has a table of all the types of Special Invention Origin enhancements,and how they work:

    Hmm, I can see why you're confused:

    Labour Day in Australia:

    Celebrating the Australian labour movement, the Labour Day public holiday is fixed by the various state and territory governments, and so varies considerably. It is the first Monday in October in the Australian Capital Territory, New South Wales and South Australia. In both Victoria and Tasmania, it is the second Monday in March (though the latter calls it Eight Hours Day). In Western Australia, Labour Day is the first Monday in March. In both Queensland and the Northern Territory, it is the first Monday in May.

    Kill X mobs

    Nope, you're exploring the world and learning where the mobs hang out. Enjoy the NPC chatter, the zone events, and the occasional exploration badge.

    Often, if the defeats aren't zone specific, you can grab a door mission containing the same enemy group from one of your contacts, or the police scanner, and do both at the same time.


    ...

  5. The mission isn't bugged, you just had bad rolls.

    On characters that have outleveled Mercedes Sheldon's arcs I often wait until I get the Vanguard Recruit Badge so I can run Montague's arc for merits.

    In fact, in the past few days I was getting Vanguard merits with an exemplared character while running the missions with a friend.
  6. Also, Vanguard merits are rewarded on mission complete only if:
    • the mission is in the RWZ, and/or
    • if you have the Vanguard Recruit day job [you will get bonus mission complete merits on any mission].
  7. Everything works fine on test I'm happy to say. Probably the new supersidekicking system code shook it loose.

    Caleb

    The last couple of times when he was flying, I followed him and his path closely followed the red map border around the north-eastern island counterclockwise. (Thorn Isle).
    The altitude wasn't very high, maybe the max height of unslotted super jump ( I had a level 32 with 1 SO slotted in Superjump and was barely able to get above him.)
    His stealth was a pain, as I'd lose target lock on every bounce.

    Changing Sounds

    Here's the new link to the Guide on How to silence specific game sounds.
    I can't help you with the names for the Pain Dom set though.

    Found this out after taking a hard look at the combat chat. I had just picked but not enhanced Cloak of Fear with my DB scrapper. A closer look revealed the base accuracy of 0.67.. miss miss miss.. I threw in some accuracy enhancements at first opportunity, and passed the knowledge along to a few friends.
  14. Deflated Ego's Chance for Recovery Debuff proc message is under the "Damage Inflicted" channel (unlike the Dark Watcher's Despair: Recharge Slow which is recorded under "Healing Delivered").

    For Pets it is under "Pet Damage Inflicted" channel. The message will be like this (copied from my Dark Servant's "Pet Damage Inflicted" Channel):

    Dark Servant: You reduce Tarantula's recovery rate.
  15. The "Chance for Build Up" procs in the Decimation and Gaussian's sets are not applying the To Hit and Damage bonuses if the character is exemplared (even when character level is higher than the enhancement level!).

    The chat message will indicate "Your attack strength has increased temporarily." but the damage records and Combat Attributes show no increase to To Hit or Damage.

    Outside of Exemplar mode everything was working properly. Damage procs are working (A level 27 Lady Grey Chance for Neg. Energy was working in the "Breakout" flashback, but the Decimation Chance for BU in the same power fired but did not buff).

    Tested using a level 33 Blaster [Energy/Devices] with level 27 Decimation BU in Power Bolt and level 34 Gaussian's BU in Targeting Drone. Even when flashbacked to level 29 (higher than the Decimation proc), both procs would fire but no BU effects applied. Non-exemplared: everything worked normally.

    Also tested with a level 32 [Kin/Rad] defender with a level 33 Decimation BU and level 27 Lady Grey Chance for Neg. Energy in Neutrino Bolt. Tested at exemplar levels 1 and 25 (with Ouroboros Tutorial) and then level 24 and 29 through Flashback. Lady Grey Proc worked throughout but Decimation BU would fire but not add buffs. Again, when not exemplared everything worked normally.

    The glowing troll Ravers spawn in and run to the rave location where they congregate and "party" but after a certain amount of time individuals will run to a specific nearby door and come out as Supa Trolls, which then run to other locations in the zone (mainly the Skyway gate and near the Yellow Line).

    To the OP: I was just at a Troll rave yesterday on Protector and it operated normally (it was the West side location).

    I found a place in Striga where I can find packs of wolves that have 1 warwolf in each but I was wondering if there was an easier way.
    I have no idea where to fight Vampyri though.

    So does anyone know good places or missions to get these?
    All of the wolves count for the badge, not just the bosses.

    At night you can find vampyrs in The Bonny Morass, especially around the north "Vampyr Mountain".

    If you are referring to the Antigravity Matrix, that is not available through Ouroboros Flashback as it is not a badge or arc mission.

    Police Scanner missions are also not available through Flashback.

    At level 40 you can access the Shadow Shard to buy a Jet pack and also earn the day job Dimensional Explorer Badge to obtain the Traveler's Jetpack.

    Earning Prestige

    The only thing that affects personal prestige earning is your level, up to level 25, and the the Day Job "Monitor Duty" which adds prestige to mission complete bonuses.

    Would be great if that aforementioned chart had those levels listed on it too. (Hint to anyone with time to adjust the Wiki)

    All of the (non-TF) contacts in the Shadow Shard are 'repeatables'.

    General Hammond [40-45], Dr. Boyd [40-45], Dr. Huxley [45-50], Lt. Col. Flynn [45-50], Lt. Volkov [45-50]

    I suppose you could say the TF contacts are 'repeatable' too.
  25. Level 35 Sting of the Manticore: Accuracy/ Damage enhancement is not able to be slotted by a level 32. It shows "red" and the text says "Cannot use Enhancement until you reach Security Level 33".

    (I had trained to 32 and the snipe, Proton Volley, is accepting other level 35 snipe set enhancements.)
