    Does PvP happen much on Justice? I'd really like to start working on my PvP badges but the zones and arena seem like ghost towns these days. I guess what I'm saying is, when are you on, I'll join you if you'll have me.

    Does anyone on Justice (blue side) want to go for this badge sometime this week? My schedule is pretty open so send me a tell in the game (@TimothyX) if you're up for doing this.

    Well, I made some progress tonight. I killed a hundred Nerva Demons and spawned Caleb and then used the /targetcustomnext Caleb command and, for the first time ever, I found him and targeted him. Unfortunately he's so damn fast that I lost him in the time it took me to type a message to the globals for help. Whatever though, at least I laid eyes on him. Next time I'll put a team together first. And have a full inspiration tray of yellows. I'll try again in the morning.

    Thanks for the replies everyone and thanks especially for the /targetcustomnext advice, that should be a huge help.

    Doh! Yeah, that might've been helpful. I'm on Justice, and I play almost every weekday morning and randomly on the weekends. If anyone wants to join in, feel free to send me a tell in game (@TimothyX).

    Every time I've spawned him, there has been a global monster alert. It wouldn't surprise me much to find out that a lot of people just ignore it when they see it due to previous frustrations.

    The only thing I've ever needed to do to spawn him is to kill a ton of Nerva Demons. I'm doing this with my 50 blaster and I'm sticking to the shoreline of Thorn Isle so it's not a problem. As previously mentioned, less damage intensive AT's will likely need a team helping with this. Allegedly you only need 100 but whatever, after killing everything I run into between sunrise and sunset, he spawns. That said, if you don't see the global monster alert that he's spawned at sunset it's possible that he's already in the zone or that he's on some sort of timer and you can only spawn him every so often. Those are the theories I've been given by others anyway.

    Thanks again for the helpful advice everyone!
  5. Hey Tubbius, I've noticed it in the last few weeks too. It doesn't matter if I'm alone in a zone, which I have been a lot lately, or taking part in a ship raid, I just get weird lag spikes. The reason they're weird is that they don't always happen but when they do happen they seem to happen on a bizarrely regular schedule. Like every five minutes my game just turns into a slide show for a 60-90 seconds (I'm not actually timing anything but the intervals are that regular). There's no way it's my bandwidth, I have insanely fast internet here. I'd begun to think it was one of the recent Windows updates but after uninstalling all of them, there was no difference. I've reinstalled them and have updated all my drivers and still the problem happens. Not every day but frequently enough.

    I'm buying a new system in the next month or so and I'm really hoping that puts an end to it.

As far as I know, all of the hardware at the house is still in good condition.

    Is anyone ELSE lagging like crazy on Justice as of late? I'm east coast US, but I've never had this kind of trouble before. Could it have anything to do with the fact that my mom is on Facebook playing various games often while I'm trying to play COH?

    I know all this is REALLY vague, but I'm no computer man. I'm just looking to see if anyone else is experiencing similar stuff.

    Thanks.

    HellBane / Caleb

    Hi everyone. I've been told that you need decent +perception in order to spot Caleb once he's been spawned. I have no idea if that's the case but I've managed to spawn him five times both alone and on teams and I've never even seen him. Does anyone else out there need the badge too? I'd really like to get a team of players together and go after him sometime this week or this weekend maybe. He's literally the last defeat badge I need. Anyone up for that?

    Well, I'm up for this Saturday at 8pm. I'll send you a tell when I'm in game next. I'm assuming your global is @StoneJaguar but if that's not it, please let me know.

I would like to possibly turn the team into a monster hunting team when the server messages popup and we are between missions. That would have to be a team decision.

    ty btw chrome. that would be great. just call it an 8pm PST start time. 6 spots open. PM me or post in this thread if you have preference for AT/powersets.

    For supergroup, i have a supergroup that is usable or ppl can use their own SGs. doesnt matter.

  10. i decided to just try googling the terms kheldians and backstory and wound up finding a rather excellent post by Memphis_Bill in the guides section of these very forums. here's the link for anyone else who might also be curious about the kheld backstory:

  11. that's a start, anyway. thanks much!
  12. Hi all, I hope this is the right place to ask this question. Does anyone happen to know where I can go to find the background story on Khelds? I've searched around the CoH site and on the forums here and I can't find much beyond the I3 discussion of what exactly Kheldians are. A couple years ago I spent half my day blowing off work and reading the backstory to CoH and I was wondering if there was something similar for the Khelds. Would really appreciate being pointed in the right direction. Thanks!
