No... Do NOT touch the Aeon cutscene.. please!
I love it.
I love the evil science villain speech, the comedy of it.
Its... for me the best thing about that tf!

Ok, maybe his coat should get a new make over (last one (tonight) as he ran through the portal, his legs did not even move.

And if you have played the STF one hundred times or more.. I'd.. suggest you do another task force?
Or, put on a tea kettle, take a little break (tell your team mates).. that kind of thing.

It is.. but it is the most active channel and a lot of task forces are made there (since also task forces do give badges )

Sad to hear that your leaving due to boredom. Take a good break Kane.. and come back rejuvernated .
Thank you Zoph for taking the lead.

Well this is not quite what you ask for, but several of us are in global chats.
Specially in three major ones.
Sals Badgehunters: (Mainly badgehunting but alot of task forces are made through this one.)
Union Taskforce: (Task forces are made here, and also events)
Union Chat: (This channel is to talk about anything else really)

Now why do i mention them? Simple, a lot of people to do the various content with.
To join a channel simply write /chan_join "Sals Badgehunters"
as an example.
This will enable Sals.

You did also mention Roleplay.
You will find several players in the channel
Union Roleplayers (Out of character chat with a lot of Unions roleplayers)
ask around and play with us and I believe you will find an established group that do not end that quickly.

Oh.. and welcome back from you break

I hope they do this DarkGob.
Playing on Union and well, I do not mind the pvp. Its the silent pvp'ers I am not a fan of. You know those who do not say anything, just take you down. Not even GF, good fight or anything.
So, I hope for the anniversary that they will spawn plenty of them (and that I am online). Still need a few heroes from the Freedom Phalanx on my main badger.

And... if your still Loyalist or Resistance, you will get the "Cannot team with an enemy". So no teaming with heroes or villains until you make the choice.
At least that was what I got when I entered D with a praetorian and tried teaming.

Oh and Solar Punch, remember xp comes as it comes. This game is about the journey towards 50.
When you get to lvl 50 there is only some TFs, a hamidon Raid (that I hope we get done more) and the ability (you have it the entire time) to use Oroboros and do the content again. (But they will not be contacts in your contact menu)

But it is good that you have found your favorite
And having a story for your first, makes you enjoy the character even more, good thinking.

Great Soul Storm. How about a Yellow mito tank team?

I usually do use the Backspace button as well to get the next reply. I do not think I've used the R button for... :O a long time.
Reason.. due its proximity near the enter button

Inventions:
If you do the tutorial in the "university" (forgot the name in Praetoria.) You will learn how to make use of the salvage and recipes.
But short version, you need a recipe of an enchantment, the needed salvage (it always says what it needs in the recipe) and a inventionbench/workstation.
Then simply use the workbench and find the recipe and click create. Voila. You have a new enchantment that you can slot.
Now lvl 30 IO (invention origins) are the same as SO (single origin), with one major difference. Any IO will NOT be outlevelled.
(If you create all 25/30 Io's, you will get more salvage space on your characters (but you have to create a certain amount of each))

Merit Rewards:
Instead of having recipes drop as reward on completion of a tf or even mission (as mission/tf complete reward) you now get merits.
These merits can be used to buy (for a steep price) a recipe, or you can use a chance roll. (Odds are you may not get the right recipe, but depending upon which level range you tried the chance roll, you might get something else, that you either can craft & sell and then buy your wanted recipe (Auction house).

Yes, you can e-mail stuff to yourself. The limit is 20 and it is globally. Now what that means is that if I was to e-mail something to myself, I would write @lady arete (the @ is important), put some money, recipe, enchantment, salvage or Inspiration in there and a little message.
I would then get an e-mail which I then can relog to my little alt and claim.


Dual builds:
Well now with incarnates it is essentially Triple builds
But lets say you wanted one build up to maximize your buildup for teaming.
& One build where you wanted to do alot of pvp, or RP build or just get some powers that just... could... not... fit into the teaming build.
Simply talk to a trainer and activate the next build, it has a 15 minute recharge, until you can return to an other build.
This new build though, must get new enchantments (the old in build 1 stays where they are).

Auction houses:
Praetoria- Imperial City (look at map)
Paragon City - Talos Island, Steel Canyon and Atlas park
Rogue Island - Cap Au Diable, Sharkhead & St. Martial (not used the St.martial much, so I might tell an untruth here)

A lot of great entries.
Hard too choose, but I'll go for:

1. Christopher Robin
2. Frozendeath/BattleWraith
3. Techbot Alpha

Right its time again for another raid. Had hoped to get it sooner, but a little thing called DxP came in the way ;D
So, I hope to get some new leaders with me and make certain more players get to experience what is the Hamidon Raid.

We will begin as normal around 7pm GMT in the Hive, Hero side. Now I do plan to have one vill side soon, so if your a villain player or you got a vigilante/rogue and would like one vill side, do tell me.

So without futher ado.

Raid Leader: @Lady Arete with Cyrene
Main Hamidon Tank team: Biscuits with Fig
Yellow Mito East Tank Team: Zoph with Zoph or Thenai
Yellow Mito West Tank Team: Soul Storm with Soul Incendia
Melee Damage: Damz with Noob Buster
Ranged Damage : Brother Smash with BrotherFlame
Holder Team: Mini-Nukette with Stela
Aux Team: Liz Bathory

(Good, getting extra team leaders, writing you down)
Extra Team Leaders (In case of emergencies):
Zoph
Tsumiju Zero

Edit: NEW START TIME

Nice watching with a good mix of battle and some casual talk, while building up for stories.

Heya everyone.
I am part of the EERC as well.
I've mainly been a Union player and been with this game for at least 48 months now
I do a little of everything, but is mainly a badgewh... umm badge affordable person. I do RP from time to time and call myself a novice casual pvp'er. I've led quite a few Hamidon Raids and I plan to increase the amount and get more players into leading so that we can get even more raids going.

My hope is that we get a closer knit fellowship here on the European servers. A friendly competition is all well and good, but in the end we are all in this together. And it does not matter what "our" server is named.

Well we are mostly in channels, rather then using broadcast. I do believe you can find some through broadcast though.
The channels that are used mostly are:
Sals badgehunters
Union Task force
Union Chat

Now Sals are for getting badges and starting tfs. Union Task force is used to start task forces and announce some events. Union chat is to speak about anything else.

I just try to think of which of these would be most suitable for your request and it is difficult.
I do think there is a channel for teaming, but I'm unsure of its name and use.
I also seem to remember that there is a channel for farmers, but again I'm unsure about its name and use.
If you are going to ask in the mentioned channels, I do believe it would be best to ask in Union Chat (since it is for teaming non stop).

I do wish you a good DxP. May you get several players with you and have a fun weekend together

(For myself, I'm still unsure if I'm going to play that much during the event (old habits die hard, as I use the "no xp" button alot ))

Edit: Oh, and there might be some in Peregrine that would be up for it. Note "might", I do not know how much broadcast is used there now.

Enter Dante, you know you want too.
Its all good fun (and characters can have a bad day). If your uncertain to join the All star... respec and insert normal Io's and So's (no sets) and join the other league?

I just hope there will be some last minute teams that assemble when it starts. I did get an offer to join a team, but there was a little talk about it (as we had the grudge match (followed by games for fun). ) but nothing set in stone.

First, welcome to the game Solar Punch. May your stay be a long and very enjoyable one

Hmm... a few tips for starters.
Have fun with your char, go wild by creating alts (more characters) and try different combinations.
Right, you start off in Praetoria. Enjoy.
When you start in Primal Earth, at lvl 5 there is a contact popping up of Aeon Entertainment... SKIP him for now.

Remember the game takes place between lvl 1 and lvl 50, end game wise there is only some high lvl task forces (Series of missions after each other and no new members can join after they start).

Now, do not be discouraged if you seem alone in the zone. This game is instanced, meaning we will be in missions or some other zone.
I'd advice you to join in on a channel (when that time comes) or two, unless you have gotten into a good sg with people you team with.

I'd advice "Union Chat" and "Union Taskforce" channel first (Sals badgehunters is another channel with alot of action). Feel free to ask questions in Union Chat and you will get help
To join a channel type:
/chan_join "Union chat"

If you then see Union Chat (where Local or broadcast where before) then you are in the channel.
Sometimes the global channel might become abit wonky, so to make certain you know the chat channel is enabled do the following (at those times)
right-click on "chat", click the "channel" option. Now you get a window in two rows (left and right). On your left side are the channels that you have enabled in "chat" and on the Right side are those you are able to, but have not enabled. If Union chat is on the right side, simply mark it and click move/enable. Then ok.

If you have questions do give me a tell in game.
/t @Lady Arete, Yourquestionhere
And i'll try to help as much as I can.

*Checking the last date I posted* Well about time I did some update on this little sheet.
Ahem
Skipped Issue I-18 and allowed I-19 long in its way, sorry for that.
Updated the sheet to help as Paragon City is "invaded" by Praetorians.
Now i did not want the sheet to be too big, so I made certain that each of the overview pages has 6 slots for Praetorians, as well as the 12 slots for heroes/villains.
Every other page has gotten an extra page for Praetorians.
All badges between last update and current date should be accounted for.
See "Changes" in sheet for what is new.

If you do find some errors do give me a pm about it or say it here, so that I can fix it.
Oh, and previous versions have all been protected (no password), this time I've decided against protecting it. The reason is that somehow I get a problem with Links to various pages or short-cut links in the sheet. In example, I might not get the link from Overview to go to the proper page.
Or in Achievement page there are several shortcuts at the top taking you to "Defeats" or "Day Jobs". Clicking one of them would result in nothing, nor would sometimes "Top of Page", or even "Home" work, with Protected status.

This happens on my pc, it may not happen on yours. If you got suggestions/advice on how to fix it, please do tell me.

Linky is at top of page, but here is another LINKY

A very good tip Wanted (make chars on both).

Hmm, I can only remember one channel used on Defiant "Defiant Events".

Welcome (back) to the game Nhapzz.
Right, Eu servers.
Union is the one with highest population, but I do believe Defiant has its share of people too. Both of the servers have English as main language.
Zukunft is a German server and Vigilance is a French server.

I mainly play on Union.
Now you may not see many players out there at first. (Remember this game is instanced based) So getting into some of the main global channels are a must.

Unions main global channels are:
Sals badgehunters - The main badge hunting channel. A lot of Task forces are made through this channel as well.
Union Taskforce - A channel used much for organizing Task forces and events.
Union Chat - A channel where you can speak of almost anything.

To join a channel you write the following:
/chan_join "Union Chat"
This will make you join the channel Union Chat.
Now from time to time we have experienced the loss of global channel server (and have to re-enable them)... Well this is how you make certain your channels are enabled:
In your chat window, rightclick on the tab "chat" (or what you have it named), then go to the channels choice. A new window will pop up with a row on the left and one on the right. The ones on the right side are those that the "chat" tab has not enabled. The one on the left side shows those channels that are enabled. Simply move the ones from the right side over to the left and click Ok/enable.

Main play time is in the evening so from about 5pm and onwards. But things happen before that as well.

I find the people that I play with as a bunch of no-quitters (I have rarely seen anyone do that) and they are a fun bunch to play with.
Now if you have questions do give me a tell in-game and i'll help you out.
/t @Lady Arete, Thequestionyouwantanswered

Again welcome to the game, may your stay be a long one and may you have lots and lots of fun

Hmm Bonus stuff.
Instead of having to wait to lvl 35 and get vanguard merits, and use vanguard merits on costume parts... I can use them for incarnate salvage and Hvas... EXCELLENT
Emote as well, nice. Sounds like a great gift for celebration of 7 years.
...
Just a pity its until April!

Are we there yet? ;D

Welcome back to the game Powerspike.
Well there must be a lot of new things for you to explore, since I joined some time after ED ;P.
But yes, the workaround for ED are now Inventions.

A few advices for you, make a new character (learn the game again), do not start with your old main (if you still have him/her).
If you go through the tutorial hero wise (and read up) you will get plenty of knowledge.

But directly to your questions about workaround for ED. Inventions.
This comes into the Invention Recipes and Invention salvage that drops from enemies, from about lvl 10.
The recipes can be made into enchantments (by using the components of various salvage). If you also get special invention recipes that belong to a set, then we are taking things further.
Various Set's will if you have 2 or more (up to 6) slots in a power, give you extra bonuses. Some of them just for that power, some that effects all powers (global).

You will find in Atlas Park, Steel Canyon and Talos, a WW (WentWorth) also known as Auction house. There you can buy/sell salvage, recipes, enchantments DO's, SO's and IO's (Duel origin, Single Origin, Invention Origins) & Inspirations.

There are so much that you will be able to explore (that I actually envy you now) , at the same time it might be a daunting task to go through all of this information.
So i'd also advice you to check in on a few Global channels:
Union Chat - Talk about anything, ask for help, introduce yourself etc.
Sals Badgehunters - This channel is Unions Badgechannel, for hunts, task force making etc.
Union Taskforce - This channel is used to announce Task force (creation), raids etc.

To join any of these channels simply take a look at your UI. You will notice the word "Chat" or any other Tab (I do not know how much you remember of this).
Type in /chan_join "Union Chat" and click enter.
Then right click "chat" and look for something about channels. Then click that choice. You will get a new window divided into two. Left and Right.
On your Left side are the channels that "chat" -tab has active. See if Union chat is on left or right side. If its on the right side, simply move it over to the left, then click accept or Ok.
This way you have Enabled the chat channel (sometimes global channels vanish, with this you know have see how to enable it again)

Feel free to give me a tell:
/t @lady arete, Questionyouwantanswered
And I'll answer to the best of my abilities, and I'm sure I'm not the only one that wants to help
I know for a fact that @Damz love to help out new players as well

Right, I'll let you read up on this, first then bring more info later
Cause you may have need of more info like Ingame E-mail, Mids, etc...

Once again, Welcome back to the game, may your stay be long, pleasurable and alot of fun

Well you got plenty of good points Residentx.
Lots of action happen through the global channels (on EU). As Damz said, the most used are the three: Sals badgehunters, Union Taskforce & Union Chat.

However if your unable to join them, (due to trial account limitations), I'd advice writing in the team window (click team window and write "Trial Account, please invite") and I'm certain Damz or another noble soul will team with you

Playing at the evenings will give you more players to play with, approx 7pm CET (6pm GMT) and beyond.

Welcome to the game Ecliptica.
To join a channel, simply type the following " /chan_join "Union Chat" "
The formula is /chan_join "insertnameofchannelhere"
This will work for all three channels that Damz mentioned.

To make certain you have the channel activated (sometimes it can be deactivated) right-click on Tab, check channels (a new window will pop up with a left and a right bar), make certain all channels you want to have activated are on the left side, then click ok.

Now the following only works if your a paying user, not a trial account.
Sadly due to plenty of spammers (gold sellers yewww) there has been put a lot of restrictions on the trial account.
You could however click "Team" and make certain your looking for team and write in the team window "Trial account Please invite".
This will tell us that you are on trial and looking for adventure and thus we can team you

I hope you will find the game a great one, I know I did. Remember the trial do not show you the entire experience, but if you love the trial... your going to love the game
