Has anyone been able to confirm if there is a badge for the Spetnaz or not?

Also: I am reasonably sure at this point, that any of the defeat X badges do not show a progress bar UNLESS they were a former COH badge, like Gearbuster etc...and those only show ???

Just thought I'd let you all know vidiotmaps.com has the new Excel spreadsheet for all the new badges for CoV and CoH, through Issue 7. You guys might wanna check it out. Vidiotmaps

Wonder if this mean that Issue 7 is due out soon. I would think the soonest would be the end of the Holiday special stuff.

Just remember W.U.S. when corresponding the location numbers

1st coord is how far WEST you are. As this number increases, the position becomes more WEST. As this number decreases, the position becomes more EAST.

2nd coord is how far UP you are. As this number increases, the position becomes more UP. As this number decreases, the position becomes more DOWN.

3Rd coord is how far SOUTH you are. As this number increases, the position becomes more SOUTH. As this number decreases, the position becomes more NORTH.

Porting information from another thread: Fortunata Seer is currently borked on Hero Side but it's being worked on.

Ok, were are the the meetings for BA? I just hit level 10 with my stalker, and the Soldier Badge dinged me for the Obssessed Badge.

Good to know, but this is a CoV thread

Our badge is Scrooge, btw.

I'm sorry if I missed this, but I can't find the PTS plaque anywhere near the coordinates where they've been posted. I've looked and looked, on the wall, anywhere, and couldn't find it.

I dunno about posted coords, but Vidiotmaps is accurate, and the plaque is on the inside surface of the wall of the complex.

I agree, but note the title of the thread

Yeah they were changed to coincide with the Hero badges. I have like 4 of them now. The Devs realized that most people can get a hero to 50 in about 200 hours or so. And no hero or villain is gonna sk someone for 144 or so hours. That leaves about 56 hours of a toon not being a mentor, and that's not realistic.

 

Posted

Okay just ran across something. Concerning the 5 hour badges for te PvP zones. That inorder to get them you need 5 STRAIGHT hours in a zone without missions or zoning. Can anyone confirm this?

 

Posted

Confirmed. However logging out or switching toons doesn't count as Zoning. 5 contiguous hours, but not 5 continuous hours. Good luck.

Is that still the case with the newest patch?

Was hoping it was tied to the rep points always being zeroed out before

I've already forgotten about most of you

Thats a little better but still a pain. I'm not a real big fan of PvP.

Do what I did for most of the time. Avoid PvP and work on killbadges.

True, true. But the heroes have a tendency not to leave you a lone. Also I've already gotten the easiest ones.

Speaking of PvP and badges, do your own PvP deaths count toward badges? I believe they do, but would like confirmation. Thanks.

It's not how many times you get knocked down that count. It's how many times you get up.

Not sure if this is just a Vidiotmaps thing or not, but I figured I'd offer a correction.

My SG got the Improved Igniter last night, but it had nothing to do with influence. Per the badge, we've been set on fire enough times that we deserve a flamethrower of our own.

I don't know if it's damage-related or just 'get set on fire x times' but there you go.

 

Posted

A badge for being shot with a flamethrower, huh?

I wonder how close I am to earning a badge for the number of times I've been puked on by Vahzilok!

How many deaths are requierd for the death badges... I know Vidiot says 50/100/500, but I've easily died more than 100 times and I've only got the 50 badge.
