Snow this is not an 'exploit' as you call it. No bugs are taken advantage of. It is simply thinking outside the box of 'the normal way'.

okay, fair enough but that is not how this trial is ment to be completed. Even tho this looks like s a new way of completeing it , it's not as the devs forseen it and i'm sure thier hard worked, thought out trial is being exploited for the recipe hunters. Before recipes came on scene folks would do the trial for a badge, and maybe a nice SO. And complete it at the teams pace not in uberhyperspeed.

IOS and recipes have made SOS not as sought after, and the badge, well seems badges have lost thier appeal to, its all about the recipes and see what can get to stick on AH to charge an arm and leg for inf wise.

Inventions/rare sets have brought the power farmer recipe hunters to the game and made trials like Eden prime target for farming in 10 mins, now that a way has been devised to

and the mobs are under 50, so no purples

Sorry, you are correct here no purples.I misenterpted that earlier from what i was being told.

With all due respect, kicking and screaming that the devs should have a look at players doing a trial quicker than you've ever done it, reeks of that green monster.

But if you say so

No if the trial is designed with a time limit of several hours you expect it to last several hours, not 10 mins !!


So if its doable in 10 mins and the devs have set a timer for several hours then surley some thing is not right if players can complete it in 10 mins !!
The devs should take a look at it and see why the TF is not being done the way its ment to be done, if it can be done in 10 mins !!

And as for it being faster then i've done it, it is but only as i take my time and enjoy doing the TF.
10 mins is world record time for a TF that is ment to take several hours to complete.

I think I see where Snow is coming from. IMO TF/SFs are meant to be a challenge. The new Time's Arrow (Impy) TF was buffed due to complaints of it being to easy. If the Dev's catch on to the Eden Trial being to easy to complete, they might buff that (but I hope not). I've only ever done the Eden trial once and it was a LOT of fun. One of the most enjoyable TFs I've ever done. To complete it in 10mins would feel like cheating to me.

Correct, no TF should be completable in 10 mins.

And no idea how anyone can kill all the DE at the start,get past them two doors and deal with all them spawning monsters and kill all the Greater devoured for the ambrossias, then rescue the hostages, then kill the shard titan which does an astronomical amount of damage without ambrossia all within 10 mins !!


So in my book there is an exploit there somewhere if can do all of he above in 10 mins.

Why even bother doing a TF if its not gonna pass a few hours.

and plain jealousy

Im not jealous of any one. Im always happy to make do with what ever comes my way i don't go out my way to try and get anything better then anyone else. I'm just not the jealous type.

bah !!

TF's ain't what they used to be

A trial that is got a timer of 4hrs or so to complete and folks do the entire thing in 10 mins !!

Must be something a foot.


Either that or IOs and sets have made COX to easy and practally all watered down. I earned the badge good and proper now folks can do it in 10 mins !!

where sense of achievment if folks can do it in 10 mins !!

Tell me this aint so, the Eden Trial is normally quite a challenging trial with major DE hunt at start. Then descending into the caverns , killing a couple GMs and then fight ing way through walls , collecting ambrosia to defend yourself against the mammoth crystal beast. While freeing some trapped hereos to boot. Normally takes a good few hours.

But some one was now saying they have found an exploit to help farm recipes and get purple drops quickly , in fact in 10 mins they claim to do all the above. Beats me how this can be done. but supposdly the right build of team is essential to this ploy

I hope the devs take a look at this and see if this is true and happinig. its sad that if this is true how degraded a sense of achievment the what was fantastic eden trial has become


And if this is possible, again the farmers have found away to make exploits to milk folks for inf or to just to get purple rare hard obtainable recipes easy !!


Can Ghostraptor or some of the other mods please put this to the US devs as i am unable to post on the US forums and if it is an exploit i hope its remedyed in the not to distant future.

I've seen a few dotted about the rogue isles and some throughout Paragon, don't really mind them, but be nice when get a few more just for a bit more variety.

I'd like for the contacts to open up to and become a contact you can get insp from if do thier arc.

Not so bad on villians as they usually sell you insp from the off, but in heroes have to do several missions before they give your access to the insp.

No dont have a US version, adn if i did have access then no i wouldnt transfer.

I dont have hasten on my widow, again could not be done with the glowy hands.

She does fine

Yip, still getting them, mainly on Arachnos maps.


And still I am intermittandly crashing to, again same card 8800gtx. Running Vista and latest drivers.

Happy Birthday

Ten Universal Enhancement Slots are available to be earned in the expansion, and each one has the potential of adding significant power to the character, essentially bringing them to a hypothetical "Level 60" once they have earned all ten slots.

This worries me a great deal.

me to, i dont want COH to gain a level cap raise. So not sure how this will work.

Can't see me ever buying one, Im quite happy to do the trials or cash in my vet respecs if i desperatly need one, still have all the free respecs on alot of my charaters to.

But i guess if used up all respecs and vet ones then this option be there for you if desperatly want a instant ingame respec.

Maybe been mentioned before, fix the SG colour screen as if change costume it seems to always alter all your SG colour setting on other costumes.

And sometimes the SG costume screen dont reflect all the pieces on your chars screen even after changing them all at icon.

Happy belated Birthday

Prior to getting AOC and a new machine i had no problems, now since upgraded PC which came with Vista OS, installing latest Nvidia drivers AoC seems to work wonderfully but CoH now gives a grey or black screen and stops working.

Also notice the error message at bottom of screen about drivers doing something and then recovering, but unfortuantly Heros dont like what ever the new Nvidia drivers are doing. Is an 8800 series card i have to.

Possibly even could be vista causing it




Hope a fix from Nvidia or Ncsoft comes about in the not to distant future.

Only seemed to get playtime for one toon, but was happy with amount of levels got under her belt.

Went from L15 to L35 on my Widow

yip would like the heals on the widows, no idea why they have not got them on the costume.Hope they get them included in the coming updates.

I did read something of the widows getting tails as well, but as Praf says might be after i12

Aye is quite depressing in the sense your customisation is gonna be very limited if trying to incorperate any VEAT pieces on you first costume, only not to be able to use them on any of your other costumes.

I was hoping the VEAT AT would be able to create any of thier costume slots with any of the VEAT armour pieces right throughout all 5 slots, alas Sexy j has told us how its gonna be.

Yes would like to try for some more credit towards the healing badges to, i have the gladiator (if memory serves me correctly)

Congrats on L50
