    That's the same mission. It goes by my name when you call Sister Psyche, it shows up as your name on the Nav Bar.

    No.
  3. Don't the Trainers talk of icon/facemaker?

    Actually, they should make Icon/Facemaker contacts pop-ups when you hit the right levels.

    Day 3 - fame bar empty, did 4 tips, now at 10/10 villain and 4/5 fame... no morality mission available, but had another standard tip mission drop.

    Did the last tip mission, now 10/10 villain and 5/5 fame. Morality mission then appeared in contact tip list as now available. This makes it appear as if you need a full fame bar as well as a full villain bar to get your morality mission. Bugged or WAI?

    Also, maybe to add to the guide...what's the recharge for the Frenzy power (and related powers) or is it a one shot power?
    Odd, after the alignment bar was filled at 10/10, the next Tip should have been a Morality Mission and not an Alignment mission.

    For more Alignment based info, please check out this link:

  5. Unlikely to happen because of the timer in place on costume changes.

    The timer is in place because a change of costume is a not insignificant amount of info transferred from client to servers. If you get a lot of people doing it often, it will cause lag.

    And going in an out of combat posture would be considered a lot of changes often.

    Click on one (or more?) of the doors in the wall near sea level.
  7. Excluding the tutorial and the portal to CoH/V missions, there are only 12 solo-only missions.

    Since 2 arcs per zone is enough XP to level up to 20, then you'll only encounter 6 solo-only arcs from level 1 to 20.

    If you're teaming with a RL friend, you can chose co-operative team completion, thus when you hit the solo-only mission, the two of you can split up, each do the mission and re-team easy enough.
  8. On the mission: Defeat the Council and Freakshow and find out what it is they seek, the door was in Precinct Five.

    We waited about 15 for a GM, after that we tried to reset the mission through logging out.

    I came back first and the mission was still in Precinct Five. However, there was now an Abandon Mission button! But it didn't work. So, I called Sister, and she now had an Abandon Mission option.. and it worked. The mission got reset to Kings Row.
  9. At the time that Virtue was hovering between Red and Pink, there were about 2,400 unhidden players.

    Female Hellions

    Don't forget there are also non-combat Hellion Girlfriend NPCs who have delightful white-trash conversations about their Hellion boyfriends. In the Hollows, the Hellion Girlfriends call out to you for help, and when you get near, their Hellion boyfriends pop out in ambush (and there are also legit stranded female NPCs who call out to you and can be helped).

    And if you read the bio for the Girlfriends from Hell you find out they were summoned by the Hellions to um... serve them. But, in fact, they are succubi who are draining their souls little to their knowledge.

    Fun.
  12. Shadow Presence is to protect you from patrols while brb bio.

    You need to be Level 20+.

    The foes you defeat must be Level 20+.

    You're looking under Contacts > Tip Tab, correct?

    Kill more.

    Server cap?

    The search window doesn't return more than 50 at a time and no longer says 'list truncated'. If you see a result of 50, its more likely to be more than 50.

    If you search by AT and then subdivide that by Origin, you can break up the numbers into chunks smaller than 50 for a true picture of how many are on the server.

    Last night as Virtue's server load indicator was going from Pink to Red, there were:

    480 Heroes
    289 Villains
    707 Praetorians

    1,476 unhidden total.
  15. This workaround might work if you're brave enough to deal with the registry.
  16. I get in just fine.

    Try flushing your cookies and rebooting.

    If that doesn't work, try a different browser.

    If that doesn't work, then it's Support Ticket time.

    Then you're not looking: http://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Issue_18
  18. You can go to Pocket D at any time, but to leave Praetoria you have to hit level 20, then you'll get the mission to leave Praetoria and choose becoming a Hero or Villain.

    See sig.

    I can't get it.

    The updater is trying to update itself which it can't because it's running.

    The reboot trick sometimes works to get around this.

    What can also work is copying (not creating a shortcut, but copying) the cohupdater.exe file to the desktop and running that copy.
  20. Added to missing patch notes:

    Emotes
    • CCNinjaJump changed to CCNinjaLeap, presumably to match what it's called in the costume select window, just like CCPodPerson was changed to CCEnergyMorph.

    So I just pull the costume change command and try to run it by itself

    /cce 1 CCNinjaJump

    Nothing happens. I've tried several times but the command will not work anymore. Anyone else having this problem?
    I just checked and there has been a stealth change that didn't appear in the patch notes and no one caught in Beta:

    CCNinjaJump is now CCNinjaLeap

    This was presumably done so that the slash command name matches what it's called in the costume change window, just like CCPodPerson is now CCEnergyMorph.

    Wiki updated.
