It would have been possible to have an account and not get one for the box by using the Bootleg Edition trial disk, but that is probably a very low number.

    How do you?

Alternatively you can get the "House Hunter" Exploration Badge in Night Ward.
    Additionally, the store NPC in the Midnighter Club will also buy enhancements back at the higher price, so there's no need to head all the way to Cimerora just to sell.
  4. The 60 day time cards seem to be gone. Even Amazon hasn't carried them in months. And Gamestop has always been erratic in keeping them in stock.
  5. You might want to read Organica's Zero to Awesome Redeux! 31 Day Project. She tells you step by step how she went from nothing to 1.7 billion infl (plus a huge stack of stuff to sell) in a month. Gives a lot of insight into how the market is working these days.

    Unless something has changed, you can't slot Vengeance for recharge.

    You can try searching the patch notes on the wiki by going to google and including site:paragonwiki.com inurl:patch_notes in the search. I tried a quick search on "combat attributes" using this, but found no sign of anything indicating a slow in the refresh rate.

    Same here. I was timing a buff recently, checking to see how much overlap time I had, and the time between the icon disappearing and the monitor updating was a fraction of a second at most.

    So, in a case like this, how would I have found it using the advanced search?
    I just did a search on "Double xp" (including quotes) and limited to the last month. The first thread that pops is this one, two of the next three include info on it.

    edit: Setting it to show posts instead of threads probably would have been more accurate.
  10. See Sharks: The Dolphin's Smiling Cousin. At the bottom:

    The portion you quoted is how Organica resolved her conflict without missing out on her weekly A-merit fix.

    As mentioned in the original post and bolded in the part that Alpha_XBS quoted, it's in the personal info, in which case it would be correct. If the OP actually meant in the IO info, then it would be incorrect.

    That is exactly how you have to do it. I might actually wait a day to cancel, but it's otherwise correct.
  14. See Organica's Zero to Awesome Redeux! 31 Day Project. She didn't say the final tally, I don't think, but the screen cap show 1.1 billion liquid, plus I'd say a ton more tied up in inventory. Nice and easy, without a lot of hard work.
  15. Still absolutely zero problems here, same as it has been for months.

    While the original subject of this quote was different, it still applies.

    I ask this being someone who is VIP (paying for membership) and someone who returned after a long absence (who used to know the game well). So I'm not being snide or facetious. I'm curious what they are.
    The HEATs (aka Kheldians)
    Peacebringers
    Warshades

    The VEATs
    Arachnos Soldiers

    They can also be purchased from Reward Merit vendors (for reward merits, obviously) and from Astral Christy for Astral Merits. The prices are quite high though, and the supply from the Super Packs is pretty good so the Auction House has a good amount and it's a better value to buy them from there, IMO.

    As for the Wiki, have you tried both addresses? ParagonWiki.com and Wiki.CoHTitan.com? And, as usual, don't use the Wikia site.

    The wiki has some of them in separate categories for each rarity.
    Uncommon
    Rare
    Very Rare

    Then there are the Random rare roll recipes, which are gained off of random reward and alignment merit rolls, all rare. And then Mission recipe drops, which I'm not sure are all rare or mixed.

    Secondly, I could use a further breakdown on how Enhancement Catalysts function. Perhaps with an example?

    Catalyzing a Miracle +Regen does what?
    Catalyzing a Ragnarok Dmg/Acc does what?
    Doesn't work, Catalysts only work on ATOs

    Quote:
    Catalyzing a Scrapper Dmg ATO does what?
    Upgrades it to a Superior Scrapper's Strike (note, there is no Scrapper Damage only ATO). The set bonuses are increased when slotted with other Superior Scrapper's Strike ATOs, the will no longer count as part of the set with regular Scrapper's Strike ATOs, they can only be used at level 50, and the percent of enhancement is greater. For example, [Superior Scrapper's Strike: Accuracy/Damage] gives 33.1% increase to Acc and Damage, while the [Scrapper's Strike: Accuracy/Damage] only gives 26.5% enhancement.

What's more, I didn't even show any progress towards the accolade.
    It never really hit me before, but there isn't an exploration accolade for RWZ.

So I joined a very good ship raid, got my badge, earned over 800 Vanguard merits (which are actually useful on my new account), and then I grabbed the rest of the explore badges in the zone, and...

    Nothing. No accolade, no SG beacon.

    The beacon might be because I'm currently a villain... except I earned beacons for my SG for all of the villain zones, even if we can never use them. RWZ is a cooperative zone so that probably isn't the reason.
    You have to be in /SGMode to be able to gain the beacon and you can't enter SGMode for a hero SG while you are a villain/rogue. You can grab the villain zone beacons as a vigilante, though, even though the hero base can't use them.

    And HEATS and VEATS. But all can be purchased through the Paragon Market.
  23. Oops, I didn't go far enough into the thread. This is the post that has the big cursors that I use.
  24. One thing that helped me to stop losing the cursor was Ruff_Tuff_n_Buff's Cursor Patch. Much bigger cursors, much easier to find with my poor ol' eyes.

    To be more specific, it gives you your total Influence, Infamy, and Information. You have to add them up to get your total liquid worth. It is the easiest and most accurate solution that I've found.
