I would think more badges would natrally come with further expansion of the game. The addition of new zones and villains inherantly give rise to new ones. IF this logic holds true, perhapse more accolades would follow suit.
yeah i know for a fact that the hollows are getting badges (exploration and plaques) and the monster events that are coming give new badges also and i can't wait for that but what about accolades?? just curiousity from a trinket junkie 
and how about currently?? how many confirmed accolades are there??
There are no new Accoldaes in Issue #3. That's been confirmed. Still lots of new badges, though. Exploration badges and History plaques added to Hollows, new ones coming with Stryga Island. New kill badges for Igneous, Rularuu, and the new monsters.
I thought a dev said they do want to make more accolades, especially once you can get at lower levels (ie sub 20).
I think there are 6 right now?
Archmage
Altas Medallion
Freedom Phalanx Reserve Member
3 for Respec trial
Oh wait there's a high level one that requires defeating a bunch of AV's.
on Virtue:
Darkennedy dark/sonic Def
Lena Slayer NightWidow
Vengeful Woman Energy/Rad Corruptor
Hella Effing Cool cold/sonic def
There's the 3 respec "badges", Conspiracy Theorist (freeze pistol), Archmage, Atlas Medallion, FP Reserve, Portal Jockey, and Vanguard.
yeah i have conspiracy theorist,atlas medallion,v.i.p badge(yes i bought the game ...again! lol)and the first respec I am just looking forward to collecting them all!

Theres 4 unconfirmed allocades already which either haven't been found (doubtful) or simply havent been activated.
yeah i had been there and the curiousity got the best of me so i threw it on the forums hoping someone else had more info on them

Concise, light hearted, answers the question while still being vague. Hehe, nice Positron, that made my day.
will there be any changes to current accolades like shorter recharge times?, 10 minutes would be good, and about the new one, any clues on what they might be?

I don't think that accolades are intended to be relied upon tactically. They're intended as a reward, a knick-knack, a nifty gadget to impress your friends. Frankly, some of them are quite powerful (Vanguard and Archmage in particular) and making them available more often than every 25 minutes would be too great a reward.
I, for one, am happy enough with the amusement factor of having a team of Scrappers fire their Crey Pistols at Nosferatu and root him in place for the beatdown that followed.

I have Hasten 6-slotted so that it's darned near perma and noticed today that I can use my Crey pistol about every 15 minutes instead of every 25. That was a nice side-effect of perma-Hasten I hadn't bargained for!

Since your hopefully watch Positron... were any more accolades made optainable in Issue3?
@artphobia
To the best dev team ever: I enjoyed meeting you all at the Summits and best of luck in all your future endeavors.
JUST got my first accolade today with Max Fury... must say that was a trip to see my little Crey freeze pistol. I had to pose with it and take all sorts of pictures...
Yeah..I have no life.
"Looks like we arrived in the nick of time. What does that make us?"
"Big damn heroes, sir."
"Ain't we just."
-Mal & Zoe, "Firefly"
thanks for the response positron!! WOOT! accolade heaven

Go rock accolade! I need my rock back!
<shudders from rock withdrawal symptoms>
Yeah really, rock accolade! I had one saved, but a bug made my rock look like my nemesis staff, so thinking I was about to fire the staff I threw my only rock instead 
I'd also love to see a Rikti Sword accolade reward. Don't really care how long the timer is, it'd just be damn cool to have. The fact one of my characters is ex-Lost has nothing to do with it, oh no.
i too had a rock bug
i recieved a temp power and untill i used all of the rocks from the temp powers section in the powers menu(9) i could not use the other temp attack. it would keep only one rock in the tray at a time, and only allow the other temp attak to be used once (even though it had 500 charges) i would have to leave the zone or mission to reset it....saddly i needed the new power to use on an AV son now i have no rocks....i sent a couple of bug reports but none saved me in time.....i'm so poutting right now
Accolades...currently I have went on a badge hunt and in search of every badge and accolade i can get my hands on.I have 3 so far and it got me thinking would there be more in the future because the accolades for me add so much more to the game. any ideas on what they could be?? and while we are on the subject how many confirmed badges are there now?? any ideas??
