    POST-ACTION

    Back when my CEBR was 30 or so, I tried some of the higher level maps that were supposedly for brutes with EA. The mobs in theses maps used electric attacks that drained my END way too quickly. I haven't tried in my 40s yet, but thought before I do I might as well ask...

    Am I just doing it wrong?

    BTW, the CEBR trip has been a fun one. Not so much that I would endeavor a 50 on each server as TopDoc is attempting, but definitely worth at least one through to 50. Not the way I would always want to play the game, but a really great and interesting change of pace!

    Very Best Farmer?

    POST-ACTION

    What would you consider the best "farming" missions in the regular game, that is outside of AE? Would these missions need a different AT and/or powerset combo to farm effectively?

    I realize that the rewards will be overall less than AE farming, but I'm looking for something to do when I need a break from AE. I have a number of 50s and no problem leveling another to switch off to if another AT would be better suited.

    What resources / links would you recommend to get the most info on Praetoria, as well as its timeline, lore, etc. I'm trying to work on the backstory for the three characters I am most likely to play once GR goes live, and I would like to have a good foundation to build from in this new universe.

    League Of Titans has been on Virtue server since launch (well, actually since beta). Many of the core group are active and still involved in the leadership.

    A War Witch Task Force, wow, I really like the sound of that. It’s a bit self-serving, though, isn’t it? Maybe if others clamoured for it, it wouldn’t sound like it was coming from me
    /clamour!

    Would love to see this! It would be even better if it involved the story of her return to the 'living', swapping out astral form War Witch contact for the "real thing" once the TF is over.

    Any word on how long this offer will be available?

    So... was that a no on releasing the pre-order before the double XP weekend?

    Early March is not sounding early enough

    Is there a good forum section to ask for help in putting a system together? I am looking to get something new, with a price point under $950 delivered.

    Intel and Nvidia preferred. No monitor needed. Win 7 as the OS.

    A couple of quick suggestions:

    The laser pistol from 'V" has a good, distinctive look that would be believable with bullets as well:

    I'm also partial to the Plager Katsumate Series-D Blaster, Model 2019 Chief's Special (aka "Decker's gun from Blade Runner")

    I have a lowbie mission arc called Snake Tales (Arc ID #91268)that is designed to start at level 1.

    It works well from a game mechanic perspective, is soloable, and I like the overall theme, but I could definitely use some input in giving the story a little more pop to make it stand out.

    Lure of the Tuatha (Arc ID #1080) works well for the lowbies, even solo, for the first three missions. The last two, you may need at least a small team due to the addition of some custom mobs, depending on your AT.

    yes, there is a 9999 limit, but..

    going over the limit contributes to your over the cap badges...

    and if you don't claim them, you can log on with each character on your account and get those badges.

    Nice benefit there
