  1. Did another 25 so far this morn. Only time for another 25 or so.

    got another shard drop thats a total
    of

    100 kills

    and its about 25:1 so far. plus the free one when you do the arc so its 5 total.

    p.s. no pvp io drops.(expected)
  2. You can earn shards if you open alpha slot i think. That is a lvl 50 arc in oro that only thr runner gets credit for so even if u sk in that arc you cannot earn shards i think.
  3. All the kills are rep valid. I figure why not double dip if possible. Going to keep a tally up to 1000 kills total to see how many i get.

    I opend the arc on an old toon i do not play much so i can keep accurate count on total shards and set a special chat-tab to just rewards to count easier.

    It is also fighting from 0 rep and only getting one per kill so i can make sure im not eastimating.

    stopped now at 75 cause i want to play will start again in the morn.
  4. So far the first batch is done only 50 kills but 2 shards. Ill post the evening results when i have them.

    But if that is a normal number 1:25 is not bad drop rate

  6. 1) 100 merits
    2) 1000 merits
    3) 10000 merits

    4) prestige earned badges even if you buy it
    5) oro sounds like a cool idea

    7) her.villan merits 100
    8) hero villan merits 1000

    You have 40 level 50's. Do you even play them all? Perhaps, you can work on them at a slower pace and just have fun.

    I have 28/29 level 50's and only one incarnate, and really, not worring about the others since I don't play them often (will likely get the 2nd with my new Corr)
    this is sound advice and i will try it.


    slow down relax

    all in due time
  8. I am disgusted with it already did 8 of my 40 50s to incarnate availiable.

    I cant stand it anymore its horrible i am so sick of it now i cant stand it.

    I now worry what will happen to the ones i dont make incarnate when ther is a teir 3,4,5,6,7 etc...

    Holy redheaded step child.

    I think that one way to incarnate and the forced tfs are a bust. It was ok for one or two or three toons but I got toons on severs that are dead so i only did the ones like most.


    But what about the ones i play less on slow servers? They are done? should i respec now? pull off the good stuff?


    i DONT THINK FARMING IS THE ANSWERE!!!

    perhaps a shard reward should be at the end of an arc?
    perhaps a shard shoudl drop when we lvl
    perhaps a shard drop should occur when we get a pvp kill 1/10 /125 1/100 or 1/200
    perhaps a shard should drop when we kill a gm or finish the other tfs posi,numina etc...


    this is killing me this nonstop itfs,lrsf,stf,lgsf etc.....



    I can be the only one!!!

    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.
    I saw on badgehunter it was 1250?
  10. I was lvling my new MM(my first one) decided to take it hero cause thats where my sg is.


    Its a knives of artimis tip misson in IP.

    The caltrops make my pets run and not attack regardless of my comanding.

    the Boss is a retsu stalker i think cause her heal animation is similar if not same. Also retsu is impposible to hit through and i was 2 hit kinda normal for a lvl 45 MM. Even though i am IOD.

    USed a whole tray of purples to stay alive and still could do no dmg cause the pets keep running away.

    Also the person i am to free and lead out has invis on so i cannot see her.

    Also to lead her out is 5th floor of a crey type building.

    best part is the misson is 2.2 miles from hospital. And i have no travel except tp and the end to get there requires me to rest halfway.

    its called extract sister jocasta.

    P.S. drop this isson if u can

    perfect purples

    they are fine i love the drop rate and i think the fact that they are selling for so much only helps the casual player io toons they would not be otherwise able to IO.

    Dont touch them they are perfect

    Purple Drop Rate

    http://www.random.org/


    seriously getting sick of seeing people cry about not getting purples. Shut up you all sound like babies.


    its a game if you dont like go away.

    play with the free stuff to see what random means since no one seems to understand.


    and i thought i was a troller
  15. Let this thread die already
  16. I have run about 25 freakfarms in pi on my Elec/sheild/fire mastry brute. Lvl 50-53 ish Almost all solo. Or pling on my second account so all the drops are mine.

    One drop so far in 25+/- 2 or 3 runs.


    The drop rate is not buffed you are just lucky.

    that is all

    Auto demotions.

    In the sg/vgs i am in some have gone dead on some servers. Yet the batton has not passed and its about 78 days.


    Am i missing something? I thought 30 days auto demote for all ranks yet that does not seem to be the case. As i have some characters on some servers that have rank in sgs that i have not logged on in 500-600 days.
  18. Why not leave the cap alone and just allow players to creat "bank accounts" at a "bank" where the "Vaults" are.

    Perhaps if there were tellers there they could "deposit" which is actually a form of email into a Account. The accounts could hold the cap of 2 billion but we could have more than one account. So for my 20 billion i could have 10 accounts.

    Also it would be nice if they would pay us interest and there could be badges associated with leaving your deposit in the bank.

    Interest could be used to purchase other things like recipies or whatever similar to vanguard merits.

    In addition to having a bank you could also figure out ways to Destroy influence with a kind of economy based game (i.e. mini game/gamble house)

    example. I bet you that monkey a will beat monkey b in dual at pock d if i win i get X if i loose i loose X plus a house fee for placing bet.


    I think the bank part is easier to implement.

    At least i can email to my alts if they do nothing not sure why the cap is such a problem but i think a bank would be best solution to reworking a new cap.
  19. Please note: while we are reserving that two-hour period for maintenance updates, they will not necessarily require the entire two hours and additional updates may be scheduled outside this time-period as needed. We may also perform maintenance on additional servers, such as the web servers, message boards, or login servers.

    implies 2 hours or less not

    2-4 hours or more

    or was there a problem with yesterdays patch
  20. Elec/sheild/ Fire(tanker epic)

    Holy aoe.

    Why did no one tell me. Im lvl 43 so far but have been rollin +2/8 since lvl 35. And the speed of killing mobs is unreal.

    the toons about a 2 weeks old and i didnt grind too hard to make it. About 2 hours a night thats it.

    this thing is a freak.

    (it is iod very heavily but still)

    that is all
  21. got it on my blaster there is a Oro arc for it i forget it but i got it off paragon wiki and was cake 2 runs set for 5 first misson

    LOLpfft.

    they have had about 4 years to debug,tweak,fixt,patch so this is all very disapointing as far as the CoP concernd.

    And again as the op im aware its very easy on a server like Freedom. However on slower servers they are not.

    On freedom they are done multiple times per night. On slow servers they are done once a week and they still have trouble. The warburg nukes made it easier but its still not "easy" on small servers.

    Why that is? team make up, which toons people are playing, whos got what as a badge toon all these things come into play. who knows maybe its somthing i have not thought of.

    But i think the devs really put the hurt on smaller servers by not getting this right.

    I am also not sure if people are aware how small the pop is on some "dead" servers. I have already stopped making new toons on one cause i ran out of room and its pointless to continue there except to see freinds and tf with them.(having 20 toons on that server also makes it so i really have all i need there). And SOOOoooo many people already left before me i was the only one left in an sg ranked in the top 10.
