Wow... glad I found this thread... Been killing Sorcerers for days now but they all over 35..
The Damned is actually pretty easy. I got that one when trying to get gang buster. Saw way more damned than Capos. Its also easy to get the coralax badge while doing these.
I really have issue with CoV badges. Some can only be gotten by farming missions but its so easy to outlevel the content that many are out of reach.
For instance I outleveled 2/3 or Port oaks before ever leaving Mercy Island. I didnt even know until yesterday that there was evena Valsiak mission series. And I never once got a Troll mission. If you do these when you are the correct level, chances are you will outlevel the real content in the game.
ColdHearted badge -- SUPER EASY.. go to Villa Requin in Sharkshead. They spawn in LARGE numbers on the coast. You can do that one and the Sky Skiffs at the same time
"Infiltrator : I had only 1 crey mission, and i soloed it. So i don't know it PP spawn. Someone told me that you'll only get Crey Power Tanks. Maybe, since this isn't Paragon after all... Needs experimenting. "
You can get these from doing the Kelley Uqua and I believe Crimson Reveants series. Problem is you wont get all you need to get he badge IMO and would need to farm.... but framing just makes you outlevel stuff
Taser - Infiltrator would be between Hellspawned and Legionnaire.
Has anyone tested turrent bosses for the Gunner badge?
Okay then, "Hero Clones" don't count.

After doing the horrible Ice Mistral TF, there ARE master illusionnist in CoV. My bar appeared, at about 3% now, yay!
I have a feeling Master Illusionists will be quite easy to get in issue 1. They seem to spawn quite regularly over level 40... which I can understand, since MIs would kick a level 35 villain's behind repeatedly.
And I really didn't think Ice Mistral was bad at all. Easy missions, only 8 of them, better storyline than Numina, very cool looking last map.

In the missions for the Carnie contacts in St. Martial my group came into contact with several Master Illusionists, but we didnt farm them. I would estimate about 3-4 spawned per mission with about 6-8 people. Forget what levels we were, though.
Also, the Hammerhead badge (best description ever) is awarded for killing a number of Scrapyarder's minions, but the whole team will get it simultaneously so it might reset everytime you fight him, or is bugged to award to the whole team when one person gets it, I don't know. Hammer Down is for actually doing the most damage to scrapyard.
Are there any badges for Luddites?

Anybody know of a good way to log kills? I've been killing Marcone Capo's for ages and swear I've gotten 200 kills, but no badge. I can't even tell which slider is for them in my badge collection.
excellent guide

There isnt a slider for most of the badges...
It took me several days to get the the Family badge.. so I want to say its at least 250...
But so many of the badges are just plain bugged who knows what the criteria is.
sweet guide, man! three thumbs up!
Want a way to get the bone daddy badge without having to go with a lowbie? pick up psymon omega and build up to his mission to defeat his phobias, go inside, and kill all the bone daddy figments, they count, and spawn roughly 4-6 bone daddys a mission. Just make sure you leave and swap with a newspaper mission or something tell you have the badge.
All CoV only badges won't have a counter (Gangbuster is one)
All Kill badges in common with CoH will list as ??? and they fall in the sam order as in CoH. The only way to know which counter is for what is by referencing a full list. Knowing what you've killed so far (roughly) and making an educated guess. It's very hard at first, until you have a few badges under your belt as markers. I had so many counters <10% that its not funny.

thanks for the post
BTW, killing 300 Arachnobot Disruptor does nothing (ya, i got time to spare)
I think, if anything, it'll be 100-300 spiderlings. Seems like something the devs would jump on for a badge, like gears.
Have we tried 100-300 Mu Guardians yet?
Wailer Queen has been bugging me. Any clue what could unlock that? Maybe 100 Wailer Kings?

How do you get the "Destroyer of Worlds" badge?
Destroyer of Worlds appears to be tied to victories in Recluse's Victory.

What level range is this?
Psymon is a tier 2 contact in Nerva. Level 25-30
Just wanted to add my observations to this thread.
Hammer Down - I believe is for the Ghost of Scrapyard himself
Strike Buster - got this and Hammer Down the first time I helped defeat Scrapyard, pretty much the only time I had fought any scrapyarders.
Hammerhead - received this badge the 3rd or 4th time helping with Ghost of Scrapyard. This time I was not on a team and was only buffing those around me. Not sure if this or Strike Buster is for just the little guys that spawn around the ghost.
Coralax Blue Hybrid gladiator - I received this one tonight after killing my 16th Red hybrid boss, so I belive these can be any of the Green, Blue or Red hybrids. I think the number is closer to 200, because I killed 86 blue, 109 green and 16 red.
Finally got the Gangbuster badge. Took me a real long time and go back to PO mutiple times over teh course of 2-3 weeks. My advice on that badge would be to get a team and just go through PO killing everything, since the bosses seem to spawn more often if you also kill all their minions.
Now can anyone tell me how I go about getting Slot Machine as a contact now?
Not possible. It's from the 25-30 contact, Archmage Tarixus.
The Banished Pantheon "Scroll of Tielekku" mission is from Diviner Maros, not Tarixus. It's in the level 25 neighborhood. Whether or not it can be coaxed into spawning masks I can't say...I don't remember if I fought any when I did it.
