Could you maybe PM me that info? I would love to know more about what's to come.

You did, because you were on a flashback.

The two new contacts, as well as the clone arc contacts, have unique first-contact dialogue that's separate and different from the normal mission briefings and debriefings. Normally if you click on them you get that introduction dialogue, but a flashback skips right to the mission briefing so you don't get that introduction dialogue.

Luckily, though, that dialogue isn't completely lost on you. Any toon who's at least level 20 who's not currently on a flashback or TF will get his introduction dialogue when clicking on him, even if they're over level 30.

It's good to be red.

Last time I unlocked VEATs on my Widow. Got a good chuckle out of me.

In a world full of super-powered beings, he is the only one who knows what's important.

Too look good at what you do and to have fun doing it.

On the other hand, how do you represent any two Rares combining into the Very Rare tier? If for example you connect the two rare Core Boosts to the very rare Core Boost, people would wrongly assume that only the rare Core Boost leads to the very rare Core Boost.

All four are connected to the very rare tier because any of the four can be used to make a very rare boost.

You can't tell me you're not in 100% agreement whenever someone suggests that.

I was so proud of myself when I finally figured out how to keep my henchies alive, which turned out to be surprisingly easy by just telling them to be where the team is not. Good thing Battle Maiden hates Incarnates more than robots!

So recently I did a mission where I killed a man I held hostage for money because his daughter had the nerve to try to save him.

The first present I opened afterwards? "You've been nice!"

I did read the entire post, I just hate quoting entire posts. It just gets unsightly, especially when someone makes longish pastes like I did.

Anyway, I think I did misunderstand you a bit. When you said early game content, did you mean Issue0/1/2 content, or low-level content?

Anyway, it's true that Striga, the Hollows and Croatoa do end their storylines in TFs and that is a pain for soloers. I'd be all for a change to that. It's just that so far I consider those three exceptions to the rule.

Arachnos and their AVs are also a bit of a special case in that they were introduced in Issue 6. In some ways the STF was meant as a way to have all the big players of Arachnos blue-side in one single TF and pretend they were always around. Having the four lieutenants of Recluse in regular, soloable content would be great, though, that's true. Ghost Widow already started with that by showing up in Daedalus' storyarcs.

I'd also love to say something about lore being locked behind TFs, but the truth is I don't actually really remember the lore behind any original TFs. So, yeah.

You know, that's something I'd actually love to see changed. You could stick close to the original system and have it so that only original Task Force members get the badge and completion rewards, but it's possible for people to join inbetween and help out if you get unlucky and several people disappear. Like, say, a system of main members and support members where only the former get the completion rewards. It incentivises sticking together for a TF, but allows helpful souls to smooth things over if they go sour.

I imagine it would be a lot of coding effort so, so who knows if or when we would get something like that? I probably should make a thread in the suggestion forum later, anyway.

Which is a good thing.

*not a fan of I0 story-arcs*

Anyway, I do agree that at this point I think this level range is almost getting bloated and some love for other level ranges would be nice.

I'd suggest that some 10-20 as well as some 30-40 arcs, but I don't see the former happening. It seems the devs picked the 20-30 range because at 20 Praetorians will cross over to the other side and the devs wanna give the gold-siders some more fresh new content before seeing the significantly older content.

Content today will be made with Praetorians in mind. This is not necessarily a bad thing in most regards, but I do fear it means that the first twenty levels in the original two sides will not get any new content for a long time. Then again, more low-level content is probably more important red-side and as we know the Devs Hate Villains(tm)
