They're in your Badge menu, under Veteran. Scroll down and next to the badge itself, you'll see a button to claim your bonus power. Just fyi, you can only choose one and that character can't ever change their choice. (though you get another chance to pick up the other power as a much later reward)

If you can't find or afford the recipe and salvage, someone might be willing to hook you up with them or some Inf to buy them. If you post your server and time, someone here might even be happy to. I don't think wing recipes are generally expensive nowadays, but it depends on the wings.

Hi, I was going to start one of these. I started a thread and posted in another that are now just gone. Think I know why, but I would very much like it actually explained to me.

SO how about it Devs, can we at least know what we atre doing wrong ?

Edited because I am dumb. Totally forgot I started this one.

In the case of the exploiting that's been doing on, you really can't do it without KNOWING there's something wrong with it.

Note that wings do not give you any sort of flight ability, and the Flight power does not give you wings (Red Bull, on the other hand...). Wings are a purely cosmetic accessory that have no effect on your in-game performance, just like every other costume piece.

They do have a special animation when using a Flight or Hover power (that looks very cool) but that doesn't affect the power at all.

Most of the people complaining about bannings are either Chicken Littles looking for a reason to rage against the machine, or exploiters who don't want to get their comeuppance.

Y'know... I think I'd actually like to see a new power like this, that gives large ticks of healing over a short time. It'd be something new and interesting at least, and could fit into a new powerset.

The problem with making the Rogue Isles like what is probably planned for Praetoria (except for isolated instances like Aeon City or the Golden Giza) is that it would have been too similar to Paragon City, which is what they were trying to avoid.

[/ QUOTE ]

That's the big thing - Paragon City, but with villains, is exactly what most people were expecting, and I dare say what most people wanted. Not merely a city LIKE Pagaon City, but villains IN Paragon City. Simply put, if you play Batman, you're in Gotham City. Wouldn't it make sense that if you wanted to play the Joker, you would ALSO be in Gotham City?

I stand behind Rick Dakan - it is silly to have one city that's all heroes and one city that is all villains. You can STILL have the villain-side and hero-side separate in different instances of the same zone to avoid open-world PvP, but being a good villain requires a strong sense of good in the world. It's no fun being a villain if everyone else is a villain, too.

[/ QUOTE ]
But then who'd want to play Villains if it was all exactly the same as Heroes, except for ATs and contacts?

CoV's zones are made with an entirely new design philosophy from Heroes, to be more self-contained and require much, MUCH less zone-hopping just to do regular missions. They also show a different side of the world than Paragon City- they're not in America, much less one big sprawling half-ruined city, and you really feel like you're in a different place. That, and I think having Heroes and Villains essentially invisible to each other is kinda silly.

Trollers are kinda hard to level til they bloom, the MA makes that a bit easier I suppose.

I have a feeling that when the Shadow Shard is finally overhauled, Rularuu mobs will be given a looking-at (no pun intended) as well.

Between geology, magic, and politics, I'm pretty sure it's fairly plausible how the Rogue Isles became what they are.

I wish they'd flesh out the blank areas on the map though. Redside could use a new zone or two.

None. Because if they add new smilies, Villain-side will scream bloody murder because the devs focused on Heroes and hate Villains because they didn't get any new frownies.

Since when do villains frown?

We have the Joker.

I feel dirty just reading the above posts.

Rikti Monkeys don't drop Merits at all, and neither do summoned Rikti (as far as I recall). Drones drop the same as other Minions though.

I thought it was about how if you said Troy Hickmans' name three times it would summon him.

Who says that's a bad thing?

[/ QUOTE ]

PETA, OSHA, the U.N. Security Council, and the Brazilian Interior Department, that's who.

[/ QUOTE ]
What about the IRS?

Yeah, but the software for this board is infamously terrible, as admitted by the devs, so I'm not making any presumptions.

...I read that as Alan Moore.

What puts up the most single target damage, and what's the most survivable?

[/ QUOTE ]

Six scrappers. Still far and away the best pets defenders get. Usually not quite as smart as the AI, but that's why defenders have that "team chat" command option.

[/ QUOTE ] Think of us as pets if you want. After all, we consider defenders just fillers.

edit: In all fairness I think of tanks, controllers, khelds, blasters, brutes, stalkers, dominators, corruptors, and VEATs as fillers too.

[/ QUOTE ]

Now, now. I all fairness sometimes they're not just fillers: they're audience members and fans.

Or plucky comic relief. And/or Vengeance bait.

As I said, the devs in this game seem to prefer to come off as friendly... so the reaction to the Meow farms seemed really out of character as a result.

Nah, they're still gonna be doing 'em. Good for PR.

I still can't think of any good story ideas.

That's why I have Laser Beam Eyes.

I mean besides the standard smiley set that most forums come with, what ones would you want added to that which would specifically fit the game's theme?

I very much doubt that we're gonna get anything new as long as we're on these boards... but if/when we finally get new ones, what new/custom smilies would you like to see?

Personally, I'd love to get each of the Archetype and Origin emblems. And maybe some power icons too, though there's hundreds of those...

Sounds interesting... dunno how much I'd use it though. I tend to post rapidfire rather than elaborately. New smilies, though...
