It's okay.

Now if only it snowed in-game:

Then it would be perfect.

Possibly due to scaling? Although I did it on an eight-foot tall and a four foot tall guy as well as the female model. Maybe one of the body scales; physique is usually standard on most but I tend to vary it on certain ones.

Actually you can blame this guy since I joined on the EU boards

You can blame me for all the feedback about my Mercy Rogues arc and the auto-complete one just like I got some of your Felis Prime feedback

It even reads the CONTACT as a custom critter if you use one of your NPCs as opposed to creating a 'person' specially for it. I used an extreme AV for a contact, then the orange warnings came along and it showed 'Archvillains, Extreme Archvillains' despite the mission having an ally boss inside it and nothing more.

Which is another problem; the orange warnings list individual categories and always as a plural. So one custom NPC AV shows up Archvillains and Extreme Archvillains and having the custom boss ally flagged up 'Extreme Bosses' even as a friendly.

That's a good point; with the developers keeping the new tech for at least one or two issues before handing it to us; we're on a constant uphill struggle to even get close to the new content standards, Dopplegangers didn't arrive till i18 after being in two new story arcs and the new Posi in i17, we've just got the new Pratorian content as unlocks and in-game we have tips that feature defeat-to-talk contacts with rolling dialogue. How can we come close to that when the tools we have are i13 standard at best? The reason this tech is being used is because old arcs are boring/out-dated go here, kill/click this.

I wouldn't bother with that thread since most of the stuff suggested only comes out if it's either; part of the theme of a new issue or he has some spare time to work on something...


... and we've been asking for animal parts for freaking years! Dear sweet muffincakes, when will that message ever get through? >.<

Yeah, it's one of the things I bring up at any opportunity.

And base-building is loved on the EU side of things too. I've witnessed and built a few things of my own (this being my latest project). There's a few EU players who'd lend support to this, myself included. Alas the global chat isn't global in the same way the market is yet but bases (and wishlists) do come up regularly on our chat channels.

What keeps me away? Well, what someone considers 'good' I could consider awful. I did a Dev's choice arc, set to around level 20 because it seemed like a nice, easy one to do for the Dev's Choice played badge... and I faced two E-Bs which I loathe and despise so I never played another (this was before the orange warnings). I play to relax, I like to win so I can actually experience the story but when E-Bs come along I hit a roadblock and it earns a black mark with me. There's a multitude of story arcs on both sides that I hate including the Alpha slot unlock for this very reason.

Friends occasionally bring me back in for RP arcs or arcs they've made personally because they're friends and I like to support them, I like teaming with them. But try one outside that little circle? Forget it. I'd rather farm the old Council Empire map over and over than risk trying what someone else considers a story.

Go into the mission list,slect the mission and click 'Abandon'. Mission gone, problem solved. Hope that helps you in the future. I've done it a couple of times when paper missions bugged out and I had used up my 3-day-drop.

I did that mission repeatedly on my Widow and loved it because it was fast-paced but mostly because she was soft-capped for defense on -1x1. I tried the same on a DP/Nrg blaster... and it was horrible. The ambushes came faster than her DPS and she faceplanted over and over. And again on my mind troller... who mass-confused everything so the ambush became a free-for-all.

So yes, little disappointed as I had a 'Save Frostfire' optional sub-quest with that one. He only perished about a third of the time I did it.

It depends on how badly the bloom takes out people. They had the 'tank' take Hami's aggro and swept clockwise taking out the Mitos from the outside in (in the exact same way as for Weakened Hami). All three teams struck together and they just pushed through the first bloom. Second one took a few people but they did keep going. They regrouped when the nukes wore off, dropped a few more and then pushed on.

It was a few months ago so they might have refined their technique since then but I remember 'Buffs', 'nukes', tank-takes-aggro, work from the outside in like on the LGTF (teams lead-in by Mito type, once the outside Mitos start to drop, the next wave moves in).

Wish granted:(Found it on the cohguru site).

For the same reason every portal corp map has masses of fudge to indicate what they represent: time-saving. Which bugs me too when I hear 'new stuff over revamps'.

A lot of the Portal Corp missions lend themselves to being major variations of what we see in Paragon City. Instead to save time and resources we got carbon-copy-cutouts of existing zones or copy-pasted worlds using the same map with no variation to distinguish them from some of the others you encounter. In the old Praetorian arc; Shadowhunter's world is identical to the Hydra dimension, Paragon Protector world looks identical to Freakshow world and Ghostworld and the Pantheon world looks like a piece of Dark Astoria (and why in a world ruled entirely by ancient gods would they have War Walls?).

That's the main reason I don't bother with Portal Corp missions anymore. They're alright for brief nostalgia of my first encounter but they play like a boring monotone compared with the newer, orchestral story arcs of the RWZ, Imperious TF and now the Alpha slot arc and TFs.

I've done that arc twice but the 'Sped-up' world uses the same map for several missions including the very low-level plague-carrier two-parter villainside badge mission. Having the light shift faster, even it was just sunrise and sunset in 90 seconds, would go someway to at least making it feel different. So much more besides could be done with the rest; Freakshow could get a shanty city similar to their towns in Creys' Folly and Sharkhead, Pantheon could have a more shadowy/foggy map without War Walls instead of the graveyard map, Ghostworld could be dark and gloomy allowing the glowy spirits to contrast against the backdrop, Family world could have classic motors.

Makes me a little sad whenever I hear 'new stuff over revamps' especially as revamps (hello Praetoria) can also mean 'new' for everyone.

Too late, they moved the servers over there already

If anything though; skilled players may get more out of this when they next decide to datamine for merit rewards. With people taking time to actually kill everything for potential shards; it's slowed down the number of speed runs being performed.

1210 is the current maximum that any toon can have, hero, villain or Praetorian.


I hit 1142 after doing the new blueside arc. Was 2 short of the other badge for that one. Thankfully with the Incarnate system requiring play of my 50 I'm working on some of the remaining badges like the damage taken, healing (thank you inherent fitness for allowing me to take the medicine pool) and the Leader badge. I've also got a few odd badges in each tab to get; Usurper, the Pentad/Spetad, 5 redside day jobs to unlock and the associated accolades with each, the sales badges and then the new redside arc.
