mender silos redside (has a lot of EBs, but can be done in about an hour for 10 merits)
badge mishs are quick mishs to flashback to and usually give 1-2 merits -
the ouroboros sf/tfs are easy solo merit farms
- can start and finish them when you want
- never have anything higher than elite bosses if on the lowest diff settings
- most of them take an hour or less
- decent merit rewards (not as much as a tf, but they add up)
- all mishs take place in ouroboros so less travel
- inspiration vendor in ouroboros as well
-
after you complete up to the first elite boss (after which you can call them) you can choose patron powers when lvling up, they are listed in a bar underneath the pool power bar saying "choose new epic power pool" or something like that

Can someone call the mighty dev over here? " How to solve WW/BM Inflation" is not my idea lol.... I guess it doesn't matter seeing how everyone can see who the first poster is -
Quote:the salvage racks used to hold unlimited amounts of salvage, but i do agree that 30 is too low (most of my lvl 50s have between 50 and 80 salvage slots), so 30 seems a little lowOriginally Posted by HitmanBoss
Well i still need to say i dont like the salvage racks for the base it used to hold a 1000 salvage pieces but now it holds 30.
I think it still would be better to upgrade them to a 100 just like the enhancements table's
i vote on 100, its a nice even number and still more than what a single toon can hold so its more worthwhile. -
to see comments on posts you have to look through every one of your posts and click the little scales where you rep someone, and when you try to rep yourself, it will show you if you have any comments on that one post.
it will not show comments in the user CP anymore since they redid the forums -
i use it on my spine/elec scrapper for the extra DoT
on a scrapper its definitly good for additional dmg if thats what your looking for -
my main has about 3 day jobs left, but i REALLY dislike day jobs
im fairly certain that when GR is out they wont add more than 1-2 new day jobs for praetoria, but heros and villains would be able to earn "hero only" or "villain only" day jobs, thus increasing the count further (which i am REALLY not looking forward too)
luckily enough for me my main toon is only missing the last 3 dmg badges outside of vet badges and unobtainable badges (unobtainable meaning master theif, anniversary, ect) and unlikely-to-be-earned badges (ie, bug hunter) -
even with items that do add rent, the rent is actually pretty hard to get above 2000
my base is mostly self run and i have the most expensive power and control units, 7-8 storage things, med bay, all the tps, empowerment station, IO worktable and all of that is only costing me 1500 rent like every 4 weeks (i can make about 1000 prestige in 1 paper mish on the lowest diff setting (varies a little due to map size), but its very easy to upkeep a base nowadays) -
with the cost of items on the market, it doesnt feel like a lot
honestly it doesnt really matter too much to me because most of my toons rarely see 1 billion (the highest i ever had was about 1.3 billion), and as soon as i get enough i usually spend it on IOs and stuff (trying to purple out like 15 toons is VERY expensive and takes forever to make that much)
i know originally the reason that the limit was 2 billion was due to just the size of the memory needed for the variable, when the game was made the largest size variable could be about 2.3 billion, but they cut it off at 2 billion to avoid issues and provide a round number, although i dont know if they even plan to increase it (since tech has gotten better in the last 6 years) -
/signed
overall i think this is a very good idea, as it would encourage more teaming and such and it would give more ways to earn merits (even if it is only 1), i dont know how easy or hard this would be to implement in the current system, but it definitly sounds like something the devs could look at -
Quote:playing in sg mode your still making inf (even if its slightly less), your still profiting, instead of dumping an enormous sum of inf into the converter instead of using the 100 mil or something to buy IOs, or saving the 100 mil to be able to purchase purples and such.Originally Posted by BlueRaptor
But... playing in SG mode to get prestige instead of inf to avoid the bad exchange rate is an inf sink too...
and as mentioned several times in this thread, the technical numerical exchange rate for inf dropped off an enemy is 182 inf for 1 prestige, which is far less than the 500 inf to 1 prestige exchange rate of the converter.
in the end, with the converter, you lose more money using it, by just running in sg mode, you earn prestige, more inf than converting, and in the fun of it all you dont even notice the slightly less inf gain (especially if you farm). -

Alright, Power, you want a crossbow set? Design it.
Go sit down, think, and then come back with a 9 power set for Crossbow Blast and explain what would make it cool and interesting.
Power, the reason nobody likes your suggestions isn't that they're inherently bad ideas, as every once in a while you say something like this which is theoretically viable. It's that your ideas are all poorly thought out or not thought out at all.
So this is your homework: THINK. What would crossbows do? What would make them special? What would all 9 powers be? If you're not willing to do this, then stop posting suggestions altogether.
i dont read the posts because they dont really say anything other than suggesting a very vague idea thats prolly implemented somewhere in the game already or something that is impossible to implement in the first place
if it isnt either of those, it doesnt have enough details to really think upon if its good or not -
18 is the max for now unless they decide to change it when they get back to bases and stuff
-
i never honestly saw the point of buying prestige, once i noticed the ecxchange rate was horrible (when i was first starting to play), i never even thought about doing that.
on every one of my toons i run in sg mode from 1-50 and can easily make nearly 600k prestige by the time i get to lvl 50, and then since they made it so we can earn both inf and prestige above 25, i never turn off the sg mode so several of my toons are at, above, or nearing the 1 mil prestige earned mark.
just in the course of lvling a toon you can easily make enough prestige for a good base (couple that with alt-itis) and you can easily rake in the prestige, more sg members also helps with that, but its not necessary if you play all your toons in sg mode. -
i have:
SS/WP - very good end management but a tad squishy at times, more of a dmg dealer than a tank, but can do decent
Dark/stone - this is my 2nd favorite toon out of the 30 some i have right now, just finished IOing him out, he runs 4 toggles normally (5 if you count rooted when needed) and has no end probs. the -tohit of the attacks and the massive resistance/defense he has really makes it nice, and soul drain then dark consumption is an awesome 1-2 shot of pbaoe goodness. once you get slotted to get rid of the negative effects of granite this combo is godly IMO
Axe/fire - end hog AND tons of redraw (might scrap this guy when GR is out)
claws/invuln - very high dmg (especially with fury built up), and great surviveability
EM/SR - very fun to play, high defense + extremely good single target dmg make him a great dmg dealer
fire/shield - very high dmg dealer, build up +shield charge + fire sword circle can finish off a good 70% of a mob and if anything still alive then a good fire breath will do the job
thats all the brutes i have for now, may try some others at some point, i definitly love brutes over tanks or scrappers because of having the DPS and surviveability -
i think the initiation is listed under the lvl 46-50 arcs in the pillars list
if its not there its prolly a bug and could just have an alt toon get the mishs you need. -
almost any defense based set is good with DA/parry because its extremely easy to soft cap melee/lethal defense
-
ill be ready for this lol, im in MD and we been getting ton of snow, college i go to actually closed all week due to snow.
-
if your on victory server, i usually available to team at any lvl on red or blue side, just send me a tell if you want to team if you have toons on victory and ill be glad to team/tf/sf/anything

Quote:stuff like this would just promote farming, if you had more than 1 badge, i mean 1 badge for getting the AT to 50 once would be ok, but more than that would cause more than 1 problemOriginally Posted by DrMike2000
Account wide badges for getting to 50 on certain archetypes could be interesting though. eg "Seasoned Tank" for 1 level 50 tanker, "Master Tank" for 5 level 50 tanks. Could even have these unlock a few cosmetic options, like costume parts perhaps.

Quote:yeah they really need to do something that actually gives the mish comp some use since the base raids are prolly gonna be disabled for quite a long timeOriginally Posted by NinjaPirate
Ah, yeah, sorry. I play mostly heroside. So, there is one use for the Mission Computer.
I wish it allowed you to access the Mission Architect system.
-np -
the sg mission computer is 100% useless heroside but on redside it gives the silver mantis sf, which is lvl 20-25 and highest merit awarding sf

Quote:mayhems are still insanely annoying because the civies running around are targetable and unkillable, i cant list how many times ive been killed because im in a big fight and i use tab to target the next enemy but what do i get? a dang civi, and what else? i use a strong attack on it, so im basically vulnerable for time being, and its really annoying to have to click on the enemies you want to hit in a mass of civies when your first enter the bank.Originally Posted by Memphis_Bill
Adjusted.
One of the reasons the old (pre-Mayhem) bank heists were absolutely hated by many - civilians (tons of them, it seems) running around everywhere to where they'd push you out of position, push you out into an oncoming ambush, etc. HATED those missions with a passion, still glare at the occasional one that comes up in newspaper missions. I was so *incredibly* glad to see those things *gone.* Mayhems are many hundreds of thousands of times better. -
ive always loved playing on victory, which i know isnt super high population, but tfs/sfs form up all the time
