As of right now, 3:19 Ceneral time, I do not have my Vanguard goodies
I pay once a year so my account has never lapsed.
How long should I wait before contacting someone?

Quote:YESSSSSS...I agree.Considering noon EST is about, what, 8pm British Summer Time it's kinda annoying for those of us across the seas.
Simply specifying "At noon EST" would at least have dealt with all of these "When's it happening" questions.
I would not be haunting the forums if I knew the proper time..ish

Congratz everyone
Now, where is my Vanguard stuffs
Lisa. -
I too would like to know when to expect my Vanguard stuffs.
I waited this long, so I am in am in no big, mad, got to have them now or I will die rush.
I just would like to know about when to expect them. noonish, midafternoonish, eveningish????
Lisa-Feeling laid back and purry -
Welcome back
A couple of fun toons to try would be either a Fire/Shield scrapper or a Spines/Elec scrap. I am not a numbers person so my reasonings as to why you should try them are "They are fun and soloable" They say /Shields takes billions and billions of influence to IO one out, but I did mine at a fraction of that, and she is GREAT fun.. I may not be able to do 4/8 or solo Giant Monsters and AVs or such things on my build but oh well
Hmm..and if you should want to dip your toes into Energy Melee....know that it seems to be a set that blooms solo. I am having a blast in Praetoria with my Energy/Elec Brute, but reading about Energy Melee in these forums, I come way with the idea that I should not be enjoying it as much as I am ...I should be instead doing a lot of weeping and gnashing my teeths ? No telling what I am doing wrong.
Ohhhhhhh...I know....you need to try a Electric Control/Earth Dom. Don't judge it until you get the sleep field though. I forgot what level you get it, but once you get it, it is a game changerIt is an AOE Sleep that reapplies itself
And one more thing, Praetoria is full of bad guys doing Energy Damage. Choose your first Praetorian toon with that in mind and you will do well.
Welcome back. -
Quote:That happened to me last week. I was having fun arresting everyone who crossed my path though, so I thought I had arrested someone out of order....hmmm.....I didn't have to restart or petition though....hmmm..I think I either found another Arbiter to pound on, or maybe I came across the Fortunata you were taken to, as I said, I was gleefully arresting everyone...my gut though is telling me I came across another Arbiter.My problem was with the second step, defeating a named Arbiter by the entrance to the Grandville courtyard. I defeated the Arbiter but it did not acknowledge that I had done so, and the mission didn't advance and the Bane Spider and captors didn't spawn.
Sorry I can't be of much help except to verify that there is something oddballish about the mission. -
Quote:The Fire/Elec Brute was my first Brute. This was before Energize. After I had made her and got her up a few levels, I remember coming to the forums to read up on her, and all I found was bad stuff..I even spoke to a Fire/Elec Brute I saw in the Black Market who was level 40 something who said he/she was playing it, but didn't like it. So I shelved the Brute, but did not delete her as she was my very first. A few years later, I came to the forums and this time I could ask questions about the combo, and I received good enough answers that I started playing her again.I've heard of people wanting to make claws/elec, but I've only ever seen one. I'd consider that unique.
Fire/Elec has a bad rep? I had one as a scrapper it was the beeeest! I remember Energy/Elec used to be a FotM, but since it isn't anymore we'll call it an oldie but goodie
I confess I have started wondering about the scrapper version and the ability to jump right in with full damage...no, I won't go there
And Energy/Elec was a FOTM? I can see why
Lisa. -
Well, not sure what you mean by unique. I am leveling a Fire/Elec Brute who, despite it's bad rep, at level 41 is going strong
On a lark, I rerolled my Energy/Elec Brute and made her a Praetorian spy..and... just wow...everything so far is being defeated with utmost ease...I just might keep her this time

Quote:Oh, Oh, Oh!!!!!It worked!!!!!!!!If I'm correct, when you enter the base, you get a three button window that pops up on the screen; the top one is "Edit Base", the one under it should say something like "Add Personal Items", and 3rd I think is "Edit Base Layout" or the such.
On the middle/2nd button, "Add Personal Items", you should see the crafted crucible under there, so long as you have base editing priveleges turned on.
It's been awhile since I've done this, and am at work, so I can't verify at the moment, but try that and see if your crafted Crucible is in there.
Thank you so much, Major Deej, thank you so very much.
Now I am going to experiment some more with base things....hopefully I don't blow up all of Atlas Park in my doings
Lis-Very happy camper -
Lisa peeks into the Base Forums....I have researched, but can't find the answer to my problem anywhere...probably because as I did not build any of the bases I now have the red star for, I don't have the basic knowledge needed to do what I want to do..sorry to be confusing
In one of my Bases I have the Enchanting Crucible which does first order empowerments.
I would like to improve on this, and get the second Tier, the Arcane Crucible .
I clicked on the workshop tab and using Rune, Blood Of Incarnate, Iron, and Empowered Sigil, I hit create hoping to create an Arcane Crucible.
I am now stuck on what to do. The Enchanting Crucible did not turn into an Arcane Crucible. I went into Edit Base mode and looked around for it.
In Edit mode, I ran into a room which can take 6 empowerment and has 0 placed.
I looked in the Empowerment Tab and saw only a lone Enchanting Crucible, then I recalled something I read from Paragon Wiki which made me check out the Arcane Workshop tab...there I saw lots of Forges but no Crucibles.
I have enough Prestige to do this...about 2888186
So, to recap, I paid my salvage to the proper place, I have enough prestige, I have enough room to place it..what do I do now?
I have never built a base from scratch, nor did I build the Enchanting Crucible, so I am probably missing something so obvious the guide writers thought it was too obvious to include.
Thanks in advance....
Lisa-Greatly defuddled but undaunted -
I hear you. For me, Plasma Shield made the armor look wrong.
Wht I do now is I use the original colors BUT I change Plasma Shield to Dark Flames, and instead of using the original color, I use a dark red color instead..to find it, go to the Black circle, it is the color on the far left, go down one circle, then over one circle...that is my chosen color to replace Plasma Shield. I love the way the colors intermingle especially while jumping.
Hope this helps bit.

I have no earthly idea about Taskforces and their ilk as I don't do them, but my Fire/Elec Brute is turning out to be hella fun and effective
I am now kicking myself for not playing her more than I have...I think she will be my next 50.
Lisa-Was going to run a patron thingy with her, my very first as this is my highest level villain and none of my Heroes have turned bad, but the servers are down..boooo -
Whine, yes please and where is my cheese?
This game has always been kind to soloers and duoers, and now, whap, the game seemingly is slapping all of my kind in the face and telling us we are not wanted anymore...because if all of the next issues are going to be like this one, that is exactly what they are saying..actions speak louder than words remember.
Which makes me feel sad.
But, I am happy here in the present. I have plenty of stuffs to do, I have lots of alts to level, and probably more stupid questions to ask here in the forums, questions which to me aren't stupid, because, if I have to ask, I really don't know the answer, and would like to
So, I raise my glass of Whine in a toast to issue 20, and again, ask where my cheese is, and I hope it is sharp cheddar

Quote:Big Sigh. This issue offers me not one darn thing..except more black helicoptor locations. But I am happily leveling my toons, and punching bad guys in the face..great stress relief thatIt bugs me that so many people don't like what this issue has to offer, but I'll continue to enjoy it myself, and hope that people are able to find something to like in it as well.

Quote:Hi Pinny.So OP, are you telling me that throughout your whole game experience you have never used Sands of Mu? The temperary power/veteran reward versions? Because it's as much DoT as the two-tick of damage dual blades attacks are.
Sorry I did not respond yesterday..I read this on my phone on my lunchbreak but forgot to go back and respond when I got home.
This brought a smile to my face.
I have been using Sands and Ghost Axe with great gusto for years.
My question had to do with the effects of Damage Over Time on Elec/ sleep field. I understood thet Damage Over Time would keep the bad guys awake, so when I suddenly realized that Sands Of MU is Damage Over Time, I got curious and started wondering if Sands was hindering my ability to sleep the bad guys, and maybe Ghost Axe would be the better choice for /Elec....yes, I think in run on sentences
I felt stupid asking the question, but I really wanted to know, and everyone says if you have a question to ask....sigh....I wasn't meaning to be stupid. Sorry if I came across that way.

Quote:Hugs. I guess everyone is in the same soup.Yeah, it lookslike there was a rollback.
The ~two hours of playing I did about ten hours ago is gone and my toon is standing where he was when I logged out 16 hours ago.
Now I have to lvl 35 to 36 again. *grumble*
-Buxley <-- not happy
Lisa. -
Quote:Hi Dark Gob.Server rollbacks aren't unheard of, if the Brute is brand-new I could see it disappearing due to such a rollback. But if it is brand-new, there's no reason you can't recreate them.
I would recommending sending a petition. I dunno about restoring characters but if "Mark" can tell a GM exactly what he lost (or exact-ish) they can probably restore it.
Yes indeed I can recreate her. Her costume and powers are saved..thank goodness...or are they still?????...if she vanished, did her settings vanish too??? Hmmm need to go check on that.
Both of us did indeed send in Petitions...so hopefully all will be well.
Lisa. -
Oh, blush, so sorry. I have never had a toon vanish before and was a trifle flustered...Mark is my better half
When he heard me yelp about my Brute he immedietely logged into the toon he has been incarnating, and found he had a loss too
Sorry....
Lisa -
Dang..I can't find the tec forums, but I am a player, and I do have a question.. has anyone else lost anything when the servers woke up?
I logged in to Infinity and to my astonishment my new Brute is gone...and Mark swears he is missing some Incarnate stuff he got last night.
Something odd is going on.
Lisa-who wants her Brute back.
