Quote:Ok, click here to start the example. As you see, I have 34/40 PvP Badges. I am NOT a PvP'er. I am a PvE'er. More than that, I am a Badge Hunter. 610 Badges has already solidified my status as a Badge Hunter, but of course, I'm not stopping there. I still need several PvP badges that include Heavies and Pillboxes.then tell me something. a badgehunter how can get the pilloxes badge and the heavy ones? he cant get them and not pvp right?
Oh gee what can I ever do to protect myself from the ebil PvPers in a PvP Zone? Easy. I go when I know the zone will be slow. If I am attacked, I don't cry like a lil kid who got his milk spilled over his mashed potatoes in the kindergarten cafeteria. I simply attempt to fight them off or I make it so boring to attack me that they lose interest. I'm well known enough that most people are bored with trying to PvP me and usually just leave me alone.
Learn to be smart about badging if you want badges. Dodge, avoid, scramble and use defensive tactics. Grab a heavy, let it die, hide till it respawns. Pillboxes? Grab a team of friends like in the original post and instead of all lining up to give away your PvP Zone Milk Money, gang up as the team you are and beat the snot out of the Ebil PvP'er.
The more you bleed your emotional heart into the PvP waters, the more of a chum you'll be for the sharks. However, an easier way to get badges is to take the offensive.
[Broadcast] Shadow Ravenwolf: Heyas and Boogedy Boogedy!! Working on pillboxes and heavy badges. Feel free to team up and help, PST or invite me. If you wanna tag me for quick rep, help me tag badges and I'll raise your rep.
That line above usually results in people leaving me alone. However, it's resulted in badge teams several times and we even had cross faction cooperation to spawn AVs for those badges. It has also resulted in many people getting what everyone wants out of the deal, be it Rep, Recipes, Badges, or a new carton of chocolate milk and some fresh mashed taters.
Take it for what you want. I'm done here. -
While it would've been nice to have the group together from launch, Drama is a fact of life. Our current incarnation of TWPE does date back to January 2nd, 2006. Also kinda gone the way of Bill Z Bubba's group. A few of us remain active and I am the founder.

If I'm up in the Poconos and I stay at the Tannersville Inn, I wonder if Stephanie McColgan will give me a free drink if I prove Statesman is the murderer in their Murder Mystery Night?

Quote:Um... Level Restrictions on Zones were abolished with SSK. You can be a Level 1 and get into FBZ. I ran a team a week ago and had a Level 13 Scrapper with us.FBZ is a hazard zone, so it always has large spawns, often with bosses. PI is a city zone, so the spawns are based on the number of people nearby.
Because of this, you should hit FBZ if you're trying to hunt them in a small team. If you have a large team, either works, but PI allows people under 40 to join the hunt.
Edit: Wow Intarnetz are slow today. Snipe'd by Blondeshell when I started my post at 5:37pm and it just hung on submission. Meh, point was made anyway. -
I know Ebil-fu...Whoa!!

While I said I would've preferred the unlock to be moved to 35 instead of 20, I really didn't say how I feel about it.
I feel perfectly neutral about the unlock level being moved. Whether it's Lvl 20, Lvl 5, or Level 48.7, I really don't care. Why? I have 50s across both factions, across all of my accounts. Yeah, it was rough going for my first, and it got easier as I went. Now that it's all done, it doesn't affect me at all.
The issue of "it took me X Time to get Y Results and it should take that long for everyone else" argument is pointless. X and Y are Variable
Things get easier as time goes on. Whether it's the natural evolution of skill, or the dumbing down of aspects of the game, the game moves forward. As long as things are introduced as challenges, then there's always a carrot on that stick to keep me chasing along in this awesome game I love so much. -
As MB and Scythus have said, 30 would've been better. I actually would've like it to be 35 to fall inline with Cimerora, RWZ Vanguard Merits, and that it adds just a touch of "let's work to a goal."

Here's a few questions to help you start the negotiations of this deal.
1 - Is the IO Crafted or is it a Recipe?
2 - Is this a straight up sale or do you want a bidding war with IO to highest bidder?
3 - If it's a straight sale, what's the sticker price you're looking for?
4 - If it's an auction, What's the starting bid, and are bids handled through sending you a PM here on these forums or through ingame tells?
5 - What is your @Global Handle so we can contact you about this sale?
6 - Are you willing to transfer servers to deliver, or will that be the buyers responsibility?
I'm sure that if you provide a more detailed sale post, answering these questions, you may see better results.
As far as my interest, I'm not on Champion, so it would cost me $9.99 US Dollars to transfer an alt to my home server. That would hold true for many of us. It really depends on how badly someone wants that IO.
Good Luck in your sale. -
Meh...When in Rome...
When you enter a PvP Zone, you explicitly agree to PvP by clicking OK on the popup window.
I rarely PvP because let's face it...I suck at it. Atleast I know I suck at it and just laugh it off when someone kills me in a PvP Zone. I'm built for PvE, but badging leads me into PvP Zones.
Suck it up and laugh it off. It's PvP...not a singsong kiddie hugfest. -
I fully support the exploration of this idea and the eventual implementation of this idea in a form that is balanced and fair.

Iron Man II - May 7th, in the theater, first show I can get to.

Quote:Ok, so let's start by calling a Troll a Troll.Ok, so I know this is my first post. And I know this will likely get flamed to all get out, but here it is anyway. Before ranting about having bajillions of influence or ruining your uber marketeering skillz.. Please take into consideration that for this game to thrive and continue to grow it needs to be newbie friendly.
Quote:That being said, I propose removing player to player influence transfers, unless you are emailing it (ala i17) to a character on the same account only. Remove all enhancement and recipe drops, and using the system currently in play add an influence bonus, where a dropped recipe would be gained.
Quote:This will ad the MMO standard "bind on pick-up/bind on equip" to the game that has proven very beneficial among every other MMO out there.
Second, If it benefitted every other MMO out there, then how did we just win a 2009 Bennet?
Nope, just the Exploits.
...and maybe Trolls and Clowns. I know Clowns is on the list. <grins at Posi>
Quote:Whew!... I hope this makes sense to everyone. Every time I bring it up in game everyone seems to agree with me, aside from the marketeers on my friends list rolling 200-300 million influence into their bankroll daily. And that in itself, sorry guys, is a prime example of why the markets are a bad idea. The devs constantly work on fixing exploits but over look the source of the issue.
(No, I really don't give a crap anymore, but the +1 to the post count will be the next thing the n00bs complain about. They'll demand a 5k post count and complain that they've been here for an hour and don't have it yet. Then they'll log off and not want to post to earn it. amirite?) -
Gratz!!

What: Ernesto Hess TF
When: 8pm Eastern, March 18th...Tonight!
Where: Striga Isle
TF Level: Lvl 25-30
Who: You!!
Shadow has been on a badge run lately. The Hess TF is another badge that I'm still missing after all these years. It's not for a lack of trying though. So...in an effort to keep chugging along, I will once again try to get Hess done.
Now, I didn't get Lars Hansen as a contact when Shadow was in the 25-30 range. I did do Lar's arc via Flashback and Hess gives me the "Get your friends and hold on tight" message rather than the "I don't know you, get Lost" greeting.
Hopefully, we can get this going and run it tonight.
See Ya'll there. -
